GEN. GRANT.
There seems to be some distrust of
Gen. Grant, in extreme radical quar-
ters, whereit is feared he intends pur-
suing a conservative policy, and will
not be controlled by the Butlers,
Sumners, and Wades of the radical
party.
This mistrust of Gen. Grant has
caused no little uneasiness in certain
radical quarters. The New York Her
ald and a few other leading Grant er-
gans, declare that the policy of the
new President will be a conservative
one, and not in accordance with the
destructive plans of the Jacobins who
control Congress.
It is even hinted that there is a
movement on foot to have the radical
electoral vote cast for Colfax, for
President, and thus make sure of a
radical in the executive chair. In
such an event, the question arises,
whether the entire radical electoral
vote can be used to make Colfax Pres-
ident. Are there not a large portion
of republican electors who are conser-
vative, *and who would adhere to
Grant, and thus defeat the radical
programme of electing Colfax ?
That there is such a conservative
element which would adhere to Grant,
is true, and this, with the Demecratic
electors, could insure the election of
Grant and a centinuation of Jehnson’s
policy.
The popular vote of the country is
against radicalism—as proof of this

Sentence of a Bigamist—Two
Wives and Two Sweethearts in
Tears in the Court Room.
A gay young deceiver, named Al
bert A. Whitehead, was sentenced to
imprisonment in the State prison, for
the term of three years, on Tuesday
by Judge Troy, of Brooklyn, for hav.
ing a wife more than the law allows.
The prisoner was indicted upon the
complaint of Henry Doubleday, a resi-
dent of Brooklyn, whom he had vie-
timized to the amount of $500, and
whose daughter he had married while
having another wife residing in Buf-
falo. Mr. Doubleday, suspecting the
character of Whithead, made some in-
quiry in regard to his movements, and
was surprised to discover that, for one
of his years baing only twenty-two he
was a most consumate scamp. He
found that he had married a girl in
Buffalo named Mara Jane Tallman
some months before marrying his
daughter, and that he was engaged to
two other girls. This morning the
prisoner was brought up in the Court
of Sessions for tiral, and was not a
little astonished to find his two wives
and two sweethearts present. He con-
cluded that it would be better for him
to acknowledge his crime, and, with-
out any hesitation, he therefore plea-
ded guilty to bigamy. As soon as he
was sentenced, the desire of the young
women to see the man punished, if
they had any, gave way, and they burst
into tears, which created quite a sen-
sation in the court-room. Both the
wives are soon to become mothers, and
sympathized with each other in their
trouble.—XN. Y., News.

Capture of a Railroad Train by
Indians.
From the Omaha Republican of the
3rd, we obtain particulars of the Ca p-
ture. of a railroad train on the Union
Pacific Railroad, previously reported
by telegraph.
We have received intelligence that
confirms the report of the capture of a
freight train, on the Union Pacific
Railroad, last Saturday morning, In-
stead of being at Grand Island, how-
ever, it was a mile or two west of Al-
kali station. The Indians effected the
capture of the train by cutting the ties
in the centre and thus spreading the
rails so that when it came along about
2 o'clock in the merning of the day
stated, it was piled up together and
made a perfect wree Iv the disaster
the firema was Killed, he being jam-
med in between the tender and loco-
motive, where for three hours he suf-
fered the horrible torture of scalding,
when death eame to his relief.
All the men en the train fled when
the disaster occurred, to escapé from
the Indians, but the engineer, who re-
mained with his fireman, and did every-
thing in his’ power to release the poor
fellow from his horrible situation. But
his unaded efforts could accomplish
nothing. While suffering these tor-
tures the fireman begzed the engineer
to kill him, but the latter could not
find it in his heart to take a human
life.
The Indians then burned the rail-
road bridge near by, for the apparent
purpose of destroying the passenger
train that was soon to follow the freight
train already destroyed. Bat Mr.
Nichols, the division superictendant,
had come down to the wreck, from Al-
kali, with a locomotive. He started
on the return, and then discovered that
the Indians had got between him and
the station, and were end avoring to
blockade the track. He had a trusty
Spencer rifle with him, and with tha’

The Army and Navy Journal tells
a good story of one of Sherman's sol-
diers, who, at the close f the war,
when he had returned victorious to his
home and household gods, never was
able to accustom himself to the soft
luxury of a feather bed, and was fain
to stretch himself, if he would sleep at
all, on mother earth. One night a
chance pistol-shot wakened the veteran,
when he instantly turned over and be-
gan to intrench himself, scratching up
the ground with his hands.

A distingue wed.ling took place in
the church of the Unity, Boston, the
other day, in the presence of a tremen-
dous crowd. One effect that was very
charming was the arrangement of flow -
ers, the pulpit being entirely hidden
by aminiature forest of tropical pants,
with boquets of delicious flowers that
perfumed the air. Another wedding
at a different church (on the same day)
also attracted the town. It had its
novel features. Preceding the first
baidesmaid and groomsman walked
eight little girls from ten to six years
of age, exquisitly dressed in muslin
and Vanlenciennes blue and pink sash-
es, and carrying each a bequet of
choice flowers.

tract the negro vote cast in the South,

and how will the count stand? This
negro vote was many thousands, and
deducting it would bring Grant down

an actual minority. Then add to
Seymour from 300 to 500 thousand vo-
ters disfranchised in the southern

least, of white voters, as a majority in
favor of Democracy and opposed to
radicalism.
To the above remarks we think it
fitting to add the following from the
Cincinnati Enquirer:

The Story of a Jilted Lover.
The Peoria Transcript tells the fol-
lowing story of a true love whose cur-
rent ran unusually rough:
“Several years ago, a young lady in
Tazewell county was wooed by a young
man. He obtained her consent, and
the consent of the old folks, but three
days before the wedding she took a
freak into her head and went off and
married another. The young man
was heart-broken, and packed up his
effects and went to New York city.
There he hid his grief, burried him-
self in business, and engaged in specu-
lation; was successful, and became
wealthy. A younger sister of the girl
that had jilted him, moved by sympa-
thy, began a correspondence with him
to endeavor to mitigate his sorrow.
The correspond :nce became interesting.
The young girl grew up, aud, as years
rolled on, ripene lint) a great beauty.
The sight of her phot)graph awakened
in the young man’s bosom the love
that he had suppos:d crushed forever:
he proposed to her and was accepted.
Her father wasa widower and was anx-
ious to get married himself as soon as
his daughter was out of the way, so
he urged the mat:h forward. The
means of the lover now admitted a
brilliant wedding and preperations
were made for it. They were to be
married last Wednesday in style, and
depart immediately for New York
city.
“A few days ago the expectant bride
recieved a letter from her betrothed
stating that he had enterad into a spec-
ulation that would keep him in the
city so that he could not possibly be
with her at the time appointed, and
asking her to delay the ceremony fora
day or two. He also referred to the
time when he expected to be united to
her sister. Provoked that he till re-
membered his former love, the young
lady wrote to him in a passion, and
sitting down at the same time wrote to
a cousin of hers, a farmer in Towa, who
had long loved her, telling him that
she had broken her engagement, rela-
ting the circumstance to him, and en-
ded by saying that she was ready to be
married, and if he would come and be
there at the time set for her wedding
she would marry him. He com-
plied.

tonished to recieve her letter, closed
