take place at noon to-day in the offloe of the Clerk of the Circuit Court. At ten oclock last evening, Officer Brown, of the Sixteenth Precinct, New York, found Susan Mack, a native of Ireland, aged twenty-two years, who has lately resided at No. 101 Ninth avenue, on the walk at the corner of Seventh avenue and Twentieth street. She stated that she bad taken a dose of Paris green for the purpose of patting an end to her existence. She was taken to the station house where she informed the Sergeant in charge that she had been seduced by a man named Mahoney, and had a few weeks since given birth to a In March last he assaulted her, and for this she caused his arrest.

He was held to bail to answer the charge of assault. Recently she caused his arrest on a charge of seduction, and the examination in the case was to have taken place to-day. Mahoney, in a recent conversation, threatened to expose her character in Court, and Jhis so preyed upon her mind as to cause her to take poison. In her possession was found a smal quantity of Paris green and some oxallcacid A narrative of her connection with Mahoney was also found. It covers fourteen foolscap details the particulars of their past intercourse with circumstantial minuteness.

The unfortunate girl was taken to Bellevue Hospital. She is considered to be in a critical condition. The steamer General Sedgwick, from New York to Galveston, has pat in at Norfolk- having been disabled off Hatteras, or rather a little south of it. They are disposed to regard it as another vie tory for the loet cause. Davis had put Mr.

Botts in jail, and he thought by this retma to make a display of magnanimity a quality which is generally most corspicuous where least obtrusive, and the desire to make a show of which has led the country into several serious mistakes and may yet lead it into others. He also thought that he was showing that we are not vindicrive, bnt were governed solely by a sense of public duty. As public duty demands the trial of criminals, it is difficult to see how it can be subserved by prefcnting dials. his most plausible reason is that Davis hid been detained too long already without ial, and that he had aright to demand speedy action on his case, which was certainly a good reason for bringing on a trial, but not for putting it off I A VICTORY OF THE BRITISH PEOPLE. The English people have just obtained a victory over the Government of great significance.

When the great Reform demonstration was appointed for Hyde Park the Government made strenuous efforts to prevent its being held there. It was demonstrated that such a meeting at such ai place would be illegal, and that the officers had authority to prevent it. Even the liberal Spectator condemned the project, and called the projector of thej meeting hard names. But the meeting was held. When the Government came to investigate the matter, they found that, with abnndant authority, they had no power to prevent it.

They could not attack it as a mob or a riotous assemoly, for it was not either and the only way to act was to warn off each member individually, which was impossible. I CURRENT TOPICS IN BRIEF. paragraph tug and indexing. The book is a pamphlet of quite convenient size. Warm.

Messrs. G. P. Putnam A Son have added to their series of railway classics a collection of Mags Social Papers, taken, like the other volume of this series, mostly from Putnam's Monthly, which, it is generally admitted, gave, during its brief career, the best magazine articles which have ever been published in this country. There are fifteen of them, treating of such subjects as Are we a Good-Looking People The Art of Eating.

Boarding Schools, African Proverbial Philosophy, Household Skeletons, Babies, The St Nicholas and the Five Points, and Negro Mtostrelsy. They are all good. The Wntmlntn Review. The Westminster Jleview for April contains a list of ai tides of great general interest The leading one is on Italy and the War of 1866, which is the fullest and most connected account of tbe present situation of Italy and the events that have brought it about that we yet bave, and is valuable for this reason. The Papal Drama and Thomas Hobbes are for tho3e who would rather hear about the dead and ab-' tractions than the living and real.

Contemporary Music and Musical Literature is taking title, bnt promises more than it gives. The review of New America is quite expanded, and considers chiefly the theories of marriage held by the Shakers, the Oneida Community, and the Mormons, with an air of indifference which is cool, if nothing else. Mr. Swinburnes Poetry is the subject of a complimentary review. The political article is on The Hopes and Fears pf Reformers.

Salaxr. The Galaxy for June contains three full-page illustrations, including a portrait of Count Bismarck, continuations of Mrs. Edwards and Mrs. Davis stories, and a number of readable articles, among which we note especially one on the German Cotillion, Torturing Words, by George Wakeman, ananalya is of Frith roCs Saga nnder the title of A Norse Love Story, by Richard Grant White, a sketch of Madame Dejazet, the celebrated French sou-brette actress, and an art article by Russell Sturgis, Jr. She graduated at the Packer Institate in her eignteenth year, and daring her.

connection with that school she furnished many compositions of rare beauty. A glance at some of them will convince the reader that they emanated from a mind richly endowed with poetic imagery. Hdr theme? were aa varied as they were appropriate, covering everyjvarietv of topic, ana all treated in a manner as practical as beautiful. Some of her poems ran over a half dozen pages of the book, though most of them are brief but full of thought. Very many of the odes sung at the commencements of the Academy were the productions of her pen.

A stanza from the one sung in 1851 reads as follows Tbe rammer eiood that floated Across the azure sky The flower that opened gently. And seemed too fair to die The dew that sparkled brightly In morn tugs cheerful light Save vanished in their beauty, Forever from our aghk Another commencement ode opens as follows Life baa been a pleasant river, But with a resistless tide. And our barks have floated onward Floated onward, side by side. Now the stream is deeper growing. Bushing to the heaving main And we part upon its waters, Mayhap neer to meeasain, Mingling with lifes heaving ocean.

Is deaths dark and turbid stream And we all must pass its waters, tre the land noon us gleam. Bet us pray our barks shall never Turn to view the shore of nght. But shall stream upon the waters pariianea from the land of light. We read thia with the thought that the mantle of Sarah Board man had follen upon their author. While the selections that have been made from her poems are mainly of a pathetic character, there are others that denote the possession of rare versatility in composition.

There are several stanzas showing the presence of a quiet humor, aa well as a keen sense of the ludicrous. Indeed, she seemed equally at Kome in every department of poetic composition. Her prose writings were equally good, though there are not as many specimens of her talent in that as in her poetic sphere, neither are the subjects treated aa diverse. Some romantic features of her life are portrayed, exhibiting such devotion as only a single-hearted and noble-minded woman could set forth. These are given with a tenderness such as might be expected from a bereaved husband.

The reader may feel a desire to know more of the life of such a woman a daughter of Brooklyn but those who know tbe author, his natural and uniform desire to draw as little attention to himself as is compatible with justice to his subject, will readily appreciate the brief space he has given to his own relation to the subject of the memoir. vith a profound admiration of the character of the late Mrs. Sarles, as portrayed in this book, we conclude this imperfect sketch with the hope that no Sunday-school taache-, or other Christian laborer of our city, will regard his or her librarv complete without this memoir of a faithful Christian woman.

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. The Democratic party died by suicide at Chicago in 1863. Its platform was its epitaph an immediate ce3sation of hostilities. Then it sank since it hac remained beneath the waters of public contempt and national detestation. Sometimes it comes to the surface.

It did in Connecticut. Its temporary, partial success there was the kicking of a galvanized corpse. Not Lazarus-like, four days, but nigh four years it has been dead, and by this time it stiuketh. As with nations, so with parties, its judgment and punishment are in this world, and there is no resurrection for it. TVhy did it die Because it called evil good.

Because it worshipped the abomination of slavery. It sought by its chocen chiefs the life of the nation, and struck at its heart It tried to reverse the laws of God, by bidding the strong grow stronger oat of the weakness the weak. It filled our army with traitors, our navy with peijurers, our departments with thieves, our Congress with bullies -and braggarts, our offices with thee steeped to the eyes in fraud, in lies, and in crime. Losing an election, it flew to rebellion, and nourished a set of traitors, of murderers, of men valorous only through irremediable ignorance, or through wholesome fear of the halter in the South; and in the North hatched a brood too cowardly to fight in open battle, but useful as manipulators in the interest of treason. Its weapons South were terrorism, wholesale conscription, irresponsible theft on its subjects, and for its victims, the pestilence, the gallows, the bowie-knife, starvation, poisoning, freezing to death, and all the ingenuity of murder which could contrive.

In the North it subsidized presses to sow discord in the name of the Constitution, to magnify rebel prowess, and underdraw Union success, to laud incompetent Union Generals, so as to give treason longer lease and less peril; to depreciate our currency, and oppose with all energy every ctfort put forth by a bleeding almost bankrupt nation to save its own life. It hired fiends to fire our cities, to poison our reservoirs, to inject among our people yellow fever and small-pox, and finally to compass the assassination of our President and the main members of our Government That the Democratic party did this is as obvious as the truth that a man's motives are the criterion by which to judge him. The leaders and warriors of rebellion and the hordes that massed to its side only fought, starved, and poisoned because the doctrines they advocated failed in the ballot, and they sought by the bullet to incorporate the same dogmas in a Government of tlieir own. The Confederacy was the Democratic theory fighting. The Confederates were only Democrats seeking success by force Instead of by voting and by discussion.

Their claims were slavery and State supremacy. "What Lee fought for, what Jackson died for, the World argued for, Kennedy fired for, and Itcff1 tnjf 'return, Democrats still, to their old-time resource of politics. They no longer dare name the name of slavery. But they ostracise blacks, murder them, sell them for years, in lieu of for passing apparently equal laws for the negro refuse him their benefit, unless extorted by the bayonet. They kill and drive out of the country all the bite putriois that refused to betray the flag, make business impossible to loyalty, and the life ol a Unionist not worth a cent, ifhe lives beyond the reveille sound of a Union regiment In the North come their It ad rs and head murderers and conspire for political success with tlieir former lickspittle servitors.

Such is the picture and such the history. There be men who hopefully believe that a party whose record we have given will Some day rule the country, and that the nation is willing to drift into its control. It is improbable; and if it were true, no other evidence were needed to prove the incapacity and rottenness of republics. But it is unlikely. Events are on the side of principles, and go forward.

Equality and liberty are the rule The party that held them from the first will bold them, and the success they assure, to the last If the Democracy oppose them they will be ground to powder. If they simulate them all will know it is hypocrisy seeking power and Judas kissing the cheek of Innocence. In either event they are doomed. The nineteenth cen-tury- cannot be defeated by the fifteenth Under the accumulated infamy of the past and under the malarial caresses of Andrew Johnson, the corpse of the Chicago suicide, be it ever so tenderly cherished, hourly gathers greater corruption, and will soon crumble in fragments, with the departure of the cohesive hope of public plunder that now bolds it feeblv together. A WORD FOR THE IMPEACHMENT COMMITTEE.

The severe criticisms which have been uttered against the conduct of the Impeachment Committee, in determining to investigate the recent acts of the Executive, are uncalled for and unjust. The committee were appointed to investigate the conduct of the President not to impeach him, but to ascertain if he had committed any acts deserving impeachment. It is proper that their investigation" should be searching, thorough, and include all that Mr. Johnson has done, the charges that have been made, and the suspicions that have been hinted against ijun. If, after all, fail to over any just grounds for arraigning Mr.

Johnson, so much the bette- for him. bnt not SO much the worse for the committee. They Will have done their duty faithfully, intelli-jrcstjy, and exhaustively, and he will he all the more clearly and completely vindicated They will be entitled to his thanks for having set him so honorably before the public. Bueh an investigation is necessary as being the only means of stopping the clamor which is set up with reason and without it for Mr. Johnson's impeachment.

There are men who would be still ready to cry out for it even if be should be shown as pure as an angel of heaven. As long as any allegation, he it ever so slight, is left nninvetigated, they can give their cries a certain air of plausibility. But if the charges are investigated and found to be idle, they will have no response bat the echo cf their own voices. If, 09 the contrary, just cause of impeachment is found, it will be proper to have all the evidence accessible on the subject MESSRS. GREELEY AND BOTTS EXPLAIN Mr.

For Tbe Union. Memorial of Mary E. Sarles, lata wiia of John W. Sarlea, of the Central Baptist Church, of thia City, Rev. Dr.

Sarlea has collated and published some memorials of his late wife, comprising an extended series of literary productions, written during the last twenty-fonr years of her life, commencing at the age of ten. In addition a deeply-interesting record is furnished of her labors in the relation of Sunday-school teacher, visitor, and pastor's wife. The book is dedicated to the Central Baptist Church and congregation, especially the young, by their pastor. In this preface the author states that not alone for the gratification of friends has it been prepared. Since her death so much of evidence had accumulated that her life had been to maIfy that pub-memorial of departed worth hf demanded by the widely ei-tf "orrowing hearts who so keenly felt her loss.

General wayne having been applied to by Alabama officers to know whether the execution of the State law to provide maimed soldiers with wooden limbs would be allowed, replied that the money or limbs might be furnished them as a gift, not as a payment, and that they should be furnished alike to those who were maimed in (resisting conscription, or in the Union armies, which is more just than palatable to the Alabamians.

Indiana offers three candidates for the next Presidency, Schuyler Colfax and Senator Morton, Republicans, and Ex-Senator Hendricks, Democrat.

Most of the other States are equally well supplied. Dixon writes to the Boston Advertiser from Charleston In tho week since we got here I have heard more talk about confiscation than I heard at Washington in three months Mr. Slovens is doing us a good service in pressing the matter. A very considers! le proportion of the people oft harleston believol him to be the leader of the Republican party, and therefore have grave fears that confiscation is. a measure to which Congress may be led or driven next winter.

I have had more questions put to me about the probabilities on this subject than on any other and, in spite of whatl have said to the gentlemen spoak-ing to me, and in spite of the language used by Senator Wilson in his speech here, I have no doubt that many of them still suppose a large section of the Republican party committed to a confiscation policy; Mr. Stevens, I say, is doing ns some service, for this fear of confiscation has not a little to do with inducing prompt action under the Reconstruction law. I Senator Wilson spoke at Montgomery, Saturday evening week. He was re-RlilAi ifiirfiSerr General Clanton, who, seeing that the audence was chiefly composed of blacks, saw fit to profess that he had boen an original Abolitionist, whoj fought in the war to free the negro, and not for slavery, and attempted to show that the radicals were the real pro-slavery men. Clanton was replied to by Judge Felder, who, making no pretensions to be anytliing but a pro-slavery man himself, demonstrated that the newly-fledged Abolitionist was lying, and sh owed up his sophistries in handsome style.

He then advised the blacks to use the ballot since they had got it, for their town good, by sustaining the party which had secured it to them, through whom alone peace could bo secured to the country. Affldc nta and Crimn. An unnamed -oil manufactory in St. Louis foiled Saturday, and I its liabilities amount to 93, COO. The Sheriff has the matter In hand.

The farmers aronnd and near Cold Spring, New York, have been swindled to a considerable degree by parties that travel through the region purporting to sell tho right of Bale of a hay-rake and tedder combined of one George N. Palmer. The right brings 100, for which a note for one year is taken. Then this credit note is sold for cash to some other pa -ties who know and esteem tho maker of the note. The fellows who have- the cash then decamp, and the machine proves to have no existence but on paper.

Over 159,000 have been collected of the formers in Columbia, range, and Putnam Counties. Some arrests have been made, bu beyond tho exposure of the swindle but little has been or probably will be done, as the principals a -e believed to bave decamped beyond the limits of successful pursuit. The Messrs. Womraths fur store, in Philadelphia, was robbed Saturday night of a large and valuable lot of sables. 500 are offered for the arrest of the thieves.

On Friday last the officers jof the Board of Education in New York discovered that the paying-teller of the Broadway Bank had paid a forged check on account of the Board of Education to the amount of 17,500. This amount was paid to some individual not known to either the paying-teller or any of the officers of the bank. The check was made payable to the bare, and the signatures of the President and the Clark of the Board were affixed to it, as also the name of the Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board. The check was indorsed payable to hearer, and signed James M. McLean, President of the Board of Education.

All the signatures have been pronounced unqualified forgeries. Some time since the Board of Education adopted a resolution that all checks should be made payable to the order of the person or persons doing work for the Board or furnishing supplies, and checks made Out in this way have always been promptly cashed, Thomas Lea, a Westchester man, living at New Rochelle, was severely stabbed in West Broadway, New York, yesterday morning by an unknown man with whom he had quarrelled. The arrest, last week, of William Whitney and Colonel William Farrar has given a sensation to commercial and, fashionable circles, where these gentlemen are well known. The first is the grandson and heir of the late Stephen Whitney, the millionaire Colonel Farrar is oatomander of the Thirty-teventh Regiment, N. G.

The prisoners have recently been associated under the firm name of-Whitney Farrar, and have transacted a storage and commission business in Pearl N.Y. On Tuesday last both partners were arrested under warrants from the hands Of City Judge Russel, on complaint of citizensj charging that they had uttered spurious receipts for goods not in their possession, on which receipts other persons had fraudulently obtained money. The offence under the statute is a felony, which may be punished by imprisonment in the Penitentiary. Another charge has been preferred of obtaining goods under false pretences. The accused were held to bail on these charges, and Mrs.

Whitney gave the requisite bonds for her son, who was thereupon released. Col. Farrar still remaining in custody. On Friday Mr. Whitney was again arrested on a civil suit growing out of the same transactions, and, no appearing, he and bis partner were borne to the Ludlow Street Jail, where both gentlemen await the action of the Courts.

SI ark Twai n. Mark Twain has many of the qualities of a genuine humorist. He also lacks some, though we have hope that he may acquire them in time. lie has a keen perception of the ludicrous points of objects and a ready knack at discovering ridiculous contrasts and putting them in their strongest light. All the work he has as yet produced is superficial, rude, and shows a tendency to coarseness, and in some instances to what many would consider sacrilege, which might as well be avoided.

He is superior to Artemus Ward, Nasby, Josh Billings, and all of that class, but is still further removed from Lowell and the school of English humorists, of which the projectors of Punch wore the exemplars. Whether ho will do better than he has done, and Bccure a genuine and unbiassed recognition for his works depends upon himself. He has the powers, and needs only to cultivate them conscientiously and industriously to securo-and hold a position of his own. It is hardly fair to judge Mr. Twain, as ho insists upon calling himself, by what he has done.

Most of this has been dashed off in tho haste of a daily newspaper life, for the deleetntion of a class of readers whose want is a big laugh, and who do not care what it is at or how it comes, so that they can g-t it. It is tho best end tho worst tiiat can be said of Mr. Twain to declare that be has succeeded in satisfying this want without resorting to the cheap dodge of misspelling his words, and it is in tho judgment that he has shown in depending upon ideas and expressions, and not in the uncouth appearance of words, that lie our chief hopes of his future. The same good sense will in tho end govern him in the selection of topics aud The collection of papers before us, with his lecture on tho Sandwich Islands, constitute the bulk of what is known of his works on this sido of the continent, and are tho basis of the estimate we have given of his powers. Their character may bo judged from what we have said above.

They are laughable and coarsely witty. The most delicate in conception is The Jumping Frog, a story told in the settlers dialect, which is absolutely without point, the joke of it consisting in that circumstance. Of the others, that concerning chambermaids lias already been published in The Uniox, and is evidently taken from life, and the rest display each different qualities, which, if properly cultivated, developed, and refined, will secure for Mr. Twain a brilliant future.

It is like explaining a joke. The difficulty is Increased when tho work to be travestied is 36 complete a burlesque as St. Elmo. Mr. Webb has done as well for that work as ho did for Griffith Gaunt, which is equivalent to saying that he has produced a better and more leadable book, besides being one that is intensely fanny, which St.

Elmo is not. He has hit all tho points in St. Elmo, and displayed an astonishing gift of condensation his book is of less than sixty pages, and contains all that there is in St. Elmo, including several literal extracts, and more "bowing that there isoither a great deal in Mr. Webb or very little in St.

Aiuukam Kews tooipaay. Adurntsm of Sir Lyon Borne. The American News Company publish a pamphlet by the author of The New Gospel of Peace, entitled The Adventure of Sir Lyon Bouse. It is designed as a travestie on the exaggerations and blunders of English travellers in the United States, Sir Lyon being supposed to bo one of the nnmber, describing his adventures in the City of New York. It starts off quite brilliantly, giving a premise of good things which is not fulfilled, becomes stupid and continues so to the end.

Tatted Mates fifereaattle Register. Kelloggs United States Mercantile Register is new work for the use of business men, which combines some of the qualities of the directory and the gazeteer. It contains article bn the Bankrupt, Tax, and Tariff laws, weights and measures, the metrical and cental systems, a table of post, telegraph, and money-order offices, and county seats, and is a masterpiece of condensation, as it gives, all in one list, without repetition of a name, laws of the several States on the fifteen heads most important to merchants, the commercial regulations of the principal porta, 1 statistical tables, and business directories of the Cities of Boston, Baltimore, New York, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Louis- i villa. New Orleans, Milwaukee, Chicago, I Detroit, Pittsburg, and San Francisco.

It is, we believe, the first book of the kind which has been projected. The business directories are confined to wholesale dealers, as it is judged that the retail dealers are of piinor interest to those for whom the work is designed, and can be found in the local directories, which it is not the intention of this work to supersede. By great care in condensation the compilers have been able to compress all this information into a space bat little larger than that occupied by our own city directory. It is published by Kellogg, Johnston 113 Nassau street, New York. Blges Tariffs.

Little, Brown A of Boston, have published a digest of (he statutes bf the United States, prescribing the rates of duties on imports in force April 1, 1867, by Lewis Heyle, of the Treasury Department.
