J English ladies huve genemlly been held un to the admiration ot the world aa models of mbdnstji purity, and correct demeanor, lheir praises in tlus respect have been ceaselessly trumpeted through the two hemispheres, and that, too, in spite of every-day practical assurances to the contrary. Recent events have shown that in these high respects they have nothing particular to boast of, and thot in fact they are not a whit better than their isters of other climes. The Divorce Court has no more ardent at- tenders than the ladies; and, during the celebrated Mordannt cose particularly, females of the aristocracy cooly sat in the galleries and drank in revelations which caused even men's ears to tingle. The very same thing occurred during the discussions upon the Deceased Wives' Sisters' bill.' Those of the galleries de voted to the accommodation ot the ladies were filled with titled dames anxious to hear any ..little bits of indecency that might happen to be dropped in the course of debate. Their hopes were not very much gratified, although at times the op ponents of the bill indulged in such de tails and illustrations as to cause expres sions of disgust and even to elicit apolo gies. All possible marriages of uncles with nieces, nephews with aunts and widows with husbands' brothers were predicted as likely to result from the passing of the bill. So far, indeed, was the gamut of what was likely to happen sounded, that a would-be-humorous mem ber boldly stated that the opponents would very likely end by declaring that the bill would have the effect of allowing a man to marry his own grandfather. It costs thirty dollars to refuse to an swer the questions of a census-taker. Burlington, Iowa, has a female citizen who has so fur advanced toward the equality of rights between the sexe that she goes t the barbers to be shaved. " Don't beat your carpets," says some kind hearted person; "try kindness and firmness, aud if that don't kbv-p thcui down, send for a policeman and lisve them taken up." . In view of tho fringes, tassels, cords and braids that are used to make up la dies' dresses now-a-days, would it not be proper to sav the lady was " elegantly upholstered ' rather than dressed?

We find the following rath er-t range epiflode detailed in the Cincinnati tits - 7.ette of Wednesdnv: In the forenoon of yesterday a thin, tall, awkward colored man shuffled un gracefully into the Probate Court room, and presented himself before the clerk who presided over the marriage license desk. The clerk looked op and saw before him a jet-black face, wrinkled from ago, overwork or ill health, and surmounted by a coarse, uncombed, straggling mntJof blade" hair, -marked here and thereby gray. The man was unmistakably an American citizen of pure African descent, fully forty yeas old. He said he wanted a marriage license, and aftar giving his name as Thomas Sharp, and the name of his in tended bride as Sarah Baker,-he added," with a twinkle of pride, " De ludy is pure white blood, sure. The clerk dropped his pen, looked up in astonishment at the black face before him, and said: " You can't get a license, sir." Thomas Sharp looked bewildered. He evidently did not perceive that the Fifteenth Amendment conferred on his race only the right of choosing men to rule over them, and not wives.' ; The in exorable clerk referred him to the Judge, and the Judge told him to bring his bride into court., i . t : -r r tf Thomarf went pa this errand and soon returned wilh three -women. One was a dark mulatto, another a light mulatto, and the third, Sarah Baker, was indeed, as Thomas had doscribed her, of " pure white blood." She hod long, light, soft hair, blue eyes, fair complexion, regular features, with no trace ot negro blood or parentage about lier. She wns small, and possessed a nent, symmetrical figure. The Judge asked her if she had any testimony to ofler; io supportof her state ment. She referred! to the dark mulatto woman, who, being sworn, testified that she and Sarah were playmates together in Nashville. Tennessee. Their mothers belonged tq Mr.' Buker, who lived on Cherry steeet, nunr College Hill.' Sarah was reputed to be the child of her mother's young master. Sarah's mother was a very bright mulatto. The witness aud Sarah hud been here about four years, and were each about twenty-two years of age. , i Judge Hocffcr called the two before him and explained that the low forbid the intermarriage of ; persons of pure white blood with persons of African blood, and imposed a penalty of fine and im prisonment upon the Probate Judge who should issue license for such murriage, as well as upon the person solemnizing the marriage. He then asked ' the ex pectant bride about her parentage. She did not become suffused with blushes, but told her story with a plenr, straight forward, business air, in strange contrast to the halting, dubious expressions ot her intended husband. She said she never knew her father; he died when she was quite young. Her mother was a light mulatto, the slave of a Mr. Buker, of Nashville, Tenilessee. She had been told that she was the child of her young master. Thin wan nil thp tpstimoiiv she had to offer, and the Judge told them to re turn at two o'clock to hear his decision. At that hour Thomas come alone, evi dently fearing the decision would be averse to his hopes. The Judge at once told him he was satisfied that Sarah Baker was of pure white blood, and that a license could not be issued. "I am very sorry, master," said Thomas; u I've nnlv been here four months from the cotton fields. I met this gal at a j ball, an' I've been takm her to church , ..-ii- r..n !.... an you see we urn in i-n m iu,c, te.et m-rrierl Vcrv sorrv. in- deed, sir."

Ibis was j accordingly done (in 1832, we believe), his father providing for his support at that time, and leaving $10,000 in his will, the income from which was secured to Theodore for life. That life, after thirty eight years of imprisonment in what in the earlier days of his confinement he was wont to call " a good boarding-house, but having some of the biggest fools he ever saw as boarders," has just closed. For nearly thirty years he was one of the most noted of the inmates, not only his proud descent, but his graceful manners and flow of conversation rendering him an object of interest to all visitors. He labored under the hallucination that he was7 George Washington, and was fond of assuming the traditional attitudes of the Father of his Country. At the oc casional balls . given to the inmates (averaging some five hundred in num ber) he was always exquisitely dressed, in the style of , his day, and was the beau par excellence. During all these longvears, despite his general gen tleness and cheerfulness of manner, he was restless and discontented, and re quired close watching, it never, in fact, having been considered prudent to allow him to go put into the grounds without attendants. About the year 1K0O his Condition began to grow worse, and he soon after became demented, continuing in hopeless idiocy until a few days since, when Death, a greater healer than Time, placed him again upon an equality with the peers of his early manhood, who had gone before him to the God that created him and did with him according to His inscrutable will.

' ' V ' ' "Goth," the Washington correspond ent of the . Chicago Tribune, picks up this about a noted character from one of his ex-Cort federate friends:' "George Sanders " said his informunt, " is still abroed, mighty seedy, and at the end of his rope very nearly. He never saved any money, and hod ho ability to do , so, although he has been possessed of many thousands at a time. While he was a political jobber and pretty low in his instincts, there was yet intellectual parts about the man which are not now given their due. While he made piles of money out of politics, he threw it away with a lavish generosity, and I do not believe that he ever refused to lend money while he had a cent. Ifi he hod been a wiser man, he would not 1 have gone south at the breaking out of the war, for every time he came up for i office or favor under the Democratic ad-1 ministration, the powerful men of the j South always opposed him bitterly. He t was once nominated for a foreign mission, j and was beaten by the Southern Demo-1 crats, although we Northern Democrats fought hard for him, and Ben W ade, at that time in the Senate, willingly voted for his confirmation, while Chase staid away, if I remember rightly, so as not to oppose hint. Yet George Sanders, wheu the war broke out, held on to his unfor tunate allegiance with the Southern pol itical; and when he had joined with them at Fort Sumter some of them wanted to send him through the lines. And when he went to Paris and England, without a portfolio, to help the rebel cause, neitlier .Mason nor nnaeii wouia - , . . . V& "m- i)n the contrary, they concerted ingciiiT io rum ma iiiuueiivu f at both courts. And yet George Sanders was the primary instigator and the real ! . j . .1 . .- : i - . i author of the ; French occupation of; Mexico." . ! I could not help giving an mcredulois ( shrug here, but my informant went on: " Well, if you have seen Old George, : as he is now, loafing about the conrt of mc uranu uuin, i nn, n iu;iiig rnnner tor any green American boys i i i ,i . 1 1 i wno nanneii w ne uvrr iiii-rt-, tuu win find it hard to believe what I Ml you, I that George Sanders and John W.

Prince apo- leon, on the throne of Mexico, and the , recognition of I'lon Plon by I h Sonth- j ern Confederacy will lead to Napoleon's , recognizing the South as the legitimate , in rrrruiuM ju.nisier cum u wora the occupation u a foregone con ctus.oa. For this they haU-d him the E ! more; and George was eucred out of any part or lot in the expedition alter he hod engineered it. the real tact, nowever. according to my judgment as a pretty old politician, is that Sanders had more ability as a diplomatist than any man in the South, not excepting Slidell, who was the strongest and the deepest man amongst us. "I have seen George Sanders, the Met- ternich of the south, at the Charleston Convention, sitting in a little room about as big as a traveling trunk, and start fifty DroDositions in the space ol halt an hour, every one of which he put in motion with as much energy of action as of thought. He was to Democratic politics what Leonard Jerome or Jay Gould is to Wall street; and he filled Charleston with such Conflict:ng rumors, and backed them up so adroitly, that the convention at last broke up, like the-workmen on the tower of Babel, when they were struck by the confusion of tongues. "George Sanders has no moral char acter, but a good deal of that disposition to stick to his friends which often passes current amonest politicians tor princi ple ; and his intellectual endowments were so brilliant, speaking politically that they used to keep us who were more fortunate in worldly thrift, in amaze ment. But he has had his day here, with Ike Fowler, Isoiah Rynders, and all that old set of New York politicians who flourished anterior to Sickles, and Wood, and Hoffman, and the new lam many set ; but when they come to sum up the big hsh in politics at the break ing out of the war, they must count as amongst the biggest that humorous vagabond George Sanders. A sick man in Michigan was found in the morning with his throat cut from ear to ear. He hod once had a brother buried alive, and his wife explained that the last request ot the dying man was that she should immediately after his death cut his throat to make sure of his decease. The neighborhood accepted the story, and attempted no investiga tion. REAL. ESTATE. FOR SALE! At a Bargain.
