Col. Fish.
Ono of the most digracuful aots com
mitted by President Lin. olu is thepardou
iug of Col. Fish, late provost-marshal of
italtimofc. His manifold orimes, of which
he was righteously convicted by a court
martial, and for which ho ds-served im
prisonment lor life, was condoned by the
payment of a fine of fivo thousand dollar,
1 his inau ws proved guilty of tho mean
est thetts, of leviyiug black-mull upou in
uocont people, and ol Iho most shuoking
cruelly towaru men onu women, wuom no
compelled to go r-ouih undor loose charges
of disloyalty. Thi perooo. Fish, once is
nued an order forbidding ibe lialtiworo pa
pel's from oupying artic.es from the World,
while at tho aiiuio time, ho was feuding
confederate cotton-bonds to Europo to soli.
All this wa- proved upon tho trial. When
a puMio offieinl is superlatively zealous in
denouncing D 'tnociais, and professing ex
tr vagaut loyalty,-it is bale to assume that
h is at heart a traitor or iv thief, ot both.

Havoc of Life by War.
It is difficult to cooociva what foarful
havoc war has made ol human life. Some
of its incidental ravagos socm to 'defy all j

well as in ancient times, largo tracts bavo
been loft go utterly desolate, that a travel

from city to cily.without finding rt solitary
inhabitant, Tho war of 1800 waged in ,
tbo heart of Europe, loft iu ono instance 1

such iv show of enthusiasm ai could bo

doubtless by this time safely ensconced in
the Halls of tho Montozumas in other
words, in tho national nalaon nt ihfl nit. nf
Mcxioo. While our oivil war has beon
dragging its slow length along without any
tndioationof it3 and approaching and being
yet visible, tbo republican government of
Mexico has boon overthrown by a foreign
army, an imperial throne established, and
a foreign prioe plaoed upon it, not only
without tho opposition, but with the tacit
consent of the prcsont administration of
'his couutry. Ilowcvor its pr noipal offi
cers may seek to paltor with tho peoplo in
a double sense, and oquivocato as to what
it has really done iu tbo matter, no sane
man can doubt that tbo Monroe doctrine
has beon virtually abandoned by our gov
ornmout, and that when the Archduke
Maximilliau accepted (ho throno proffered
him, he was well assured that he need fear
no interference on the part of tho Unithd
Statas.

Tho thoughtful reador ol the P.alms

The authors of the Septuagiut tramlution

a musical note iquivaleat, perb-ps, to the
