claimed for it, ity v hid, it can ' its
own way in the world. The poets have
indeed said i
so ; but it s a poetic fiction:
History contradicts it ; the fearful dom
inance of error contradicts it ; the Mar
tyrology of the church contradict I it.-7
The truth 'must become concrete In liv
ing men ; the faith must embody itself
in the faithful. The ('rot;, Ispo.:verlesa,
its doctrines arepoweriess,tillthey enter
and fire human souls, make themselves
vocal on ludnan tongues and felt in hu

Jeremiah Hart, who emigrated from
Charleston township to North Caroli
na, writes us as follows : ~
" I spent several weeks in the vicini
ty of Raleigh„latt did not like it as a
farming eonfitry; so I went abort WO
miles west of there, Ond found land
plenty, good and cheap, with as good
Water as can he found in Tiogn eounty.
I have bought 252 acres, 80 acres of• it
good timber land, with a tolerably good
i t
two story bri It house, six rooms in it,
a large kite en, and with more fruit
trees than agcy three fainis .in Tiega
county. I bought, the whole for $ 15 0%
and there are plenty more such chances
here. I thin & this is the b rat county in
the State for farming ; and if you know
of a good chap up there who wants a
cheap farm, where he can raise grapes,
pet:loles and melons, as easy As pota
toeS, send him to Thomasville, N. C.,,
POLITICAL LEA OEM
We are admonished that we ought to
write political leaders : that the people
expect it, But to what end Have not
the leading papers—the Tribune, Post,
World, TillteB, Journal of Comme,ece,
and othbr prominent papers— Leen flush
of editorialer for, the past tun 3 ears?—
Yea ; until any 11111/1 who rends Inns
be 'about as well booked upon ail the
J- issues of the times as the editors them
selves. And it seems to us that there
comes a proper time for a lull in party
bitterness; a time for cool reflection on
other 'matters ; a time for produce's to
take preeedence of politicians; a time
for editorials oir — liotatoes, rather than
politics. During the war it was differ
ent. Then, it seemed to us,lhe men
who opposed or sneered at the rnilaing
of troops, were indir ctly putting bul
lets Into good men an true—our friends,
neighbors, or relatives. We do not for
get it : but the rebellion is burned out.
All the Calhouns : id Davises in the
South cannot k intik it again to a flame.
And all the time it was going tin, there
was a fearful waste of the material pro
ducts that alone can support war. Now
• that the necessity for waste and destruc
tion nici longer exists, we prefer to let
the dead bury the dead, so far as may
be, and turn our attention to the live
interests of to-day,—to making good
the waste of war. Aud hence we pre
, fer the man who will increase the aver
age. crop of potatoes five bnshels to the
acre, to the sharpest politiCal hack who
ever mounted a stump or wrote a leader.
We have our convictions on the lead
ing questions of the day. We believe
it better to invite the skilled laborer of
England to our shores, that he may
share our prosperity, than to admit his
cheaper made fabrics duty free, that
our skilled laborers may be cut down
to his low wages and poorer-life.';. We
believe in protection to home industry,
now and for all future time, 'unless the
day -shall come when wages over the
water are as high and working hours as
few as in the United Stake. Then we
may lean to free trade. 44t, present, we
believe the true policy is lillin bring pro
ducer•and consumer as near together t's
may be possible; and we do not wish
to see either products of the land or the
loom low-priced. Let each branch of
industry be well paid—far better tbrt n
in any other country. '
NO' do not believe that Dominica is
worth t quarreling-about, and we don't
care steel pen whether it, be." annex
ed" r not. But we do attach some inp•
plrtCa to the next Presidential cam
ir
paig n tind do not wish to see men who
were e, and professedly expect to be,
bitter enemies of the governinen t, have
much to say about it. No other govern,-
meta ever allowed its avowed enemies)
to participate, in its adwinistratiOu.—
Why should we?
We have no space to throw away on
thct silly pot-house flings at the "fra
grant darkey," " taxes," " Grant's fam
ily irelations," etc., because the editors
who puCitel such trash know better—
if they k'noW anything—and only de
vote their columns to that sort of thing
because it pays. ' They understand the
tastes and capacities of their readers
better than we do,-probably.
Our decided opinion is, that the pres
ent adminletration.has done better than
—ender the difficulties of the situation
—could have been' fairly expected.—
And our preference Is decidedly for
Gen. Grant as the nomtnee for Presi
dent for the next term. If a better
Man can be found, we shall be glad;
hut we think that doubtful In the ex
treme; and we feel pretty certain that
he is the most available. In the mean
time, we shall steer by the primordial
point,—that the wholeconcern, govern
ment, science, place, petty oflice, and
the whole list of more-or-lees necessary
drones, depend on the productions of
tAv volt for the bread they eat ',zed the
"tiles they wear.

LUNA IC'S WI FE.
,
The Independent lectures savagely on
tho ton wioi of etesar, (hat Crusar's
wife should be above suspicion." Well;
we think • she should. The Independ
ent discourseth as fullo»•s:
" Knowing ea:cur.'s opinion of Cics.tr' wifo,
we can only guess a:t Clesar's wife's opinion tf
Ctesar. history, although it bus recorded the
one. has pitifully missed the other. A competi
tion of the two (had cyo the two to emu/pure)
Would ' point a moral and adorn a talr.'
"Censor's opinion has too long stow alone; it
now needs Censor's wife's opinion to stand beside
lt, Cms.ar's opinion has had the (..flect to make
the:world lax imits pardons of owna;tnti cover°
in its punh,hrnents of women; Co-htr's wife's
opinion should now "demand that the world's mo

administered with iMpartial justice to the c;on
du& of men.
"Take c ease. A•womon (soy one of Caesar's
numerous wives) makes a Journey, to N. York.—
Arriving in the night, and alone, bill), goes to the
Fifth Avenue hotel and asks foralodging. The
immaculate clerk eyes her askance, and replies,
' No, you cannot lodge here. Why she in.,
quires. ' Well,' says he, stammcringly i LLtt. was
Cwear, I think, who said that a wouian must be
not only above reproach, but above suspicion .'—
In other words, a woman whom Cmsar'a- clerk
suspects, cilnnot lodge at - Cirsar's hotel.
" Now, in the name of all the virtues, we c'sk,
Why should the economy of a hotel make it dis-^
tinction between the soul's rei;titude of ercear

It does'nt ; and you ought to know
it. Hotel economy takes no thoiight of

itself to the body.

led this man to iodulo, without evidence, in such
slander ? It-was simply because he bad been
brought up from hit youth under a morality
which, what' it could be respcdtably defied by
Ctesar, was nevertheless a necessary tenutggq of
reputation to
wri t's Wife."
And the writer adds:
._ , _
"Suppose other people should be Table tv pviut
out, in him, the same spots and flaws which, in
her, suffice to create 'a damaged reputation.'—
We want to In ow why his reputation in that case
should pass as any less damaged' than hers !
In other words, why should a deflection, which
is harmless to Ctesar, be fatal to his wife r'
'We answer: Because Crestir's wife
may be the mother of children, and
Cfesar may not. Ctesar's " deflections"
are not a badge of disgrace to his chil
dren.i The deflections of Ctesar's wife
are. Would the writer of the article
in question object4o the acquaintance
and friendship of such men as Daniel
Webster, Henry Clay, R. M. Johnson;
and others who might be named ?—and
how about their " deflections?" •
np
pose some of their well known a> oars
attached to their wives instead, Would
you wish flour wife and daught rs to
associate with them ?, And did 'y
ii or
yours ever refuse the friendship of Clay
or Webster on moral grounds?
No : it is the mother only who can
stigmatize'ber children fg gusting doubt
on their legitimacy, or Make her spouse
the subject of ridictile, under the &ea

has- consented to recognize and abide
by this view of the matter, back 'to a
time whqu the record runneth not.
We are no opposer of anybodVe
rights, man or woman. But hav_e a
decided impression that woman is 4s

hug disgust f of,some of them.
MURDER TRIAL IN BINGHAMTON
HISTORY OF THE PRIE3ONEit, RULOIOI
' Edward H. Ruloff, now on trial for
his life at Binghamton, is more than
au ordinary criminal. 'The crime for
'which he is now arraigned, cannot have
passed from the memory of the reader.
It was only in August last that the store
of Halbert brothers, Binghamton, was
burglarized, and a clerk, Frederick A.
Merrick, killed while resisting thebur
glars. The latter escaped. 'l' w o of
them, named Jarvis and Dexter; were
drowned the same night, while attemp
ting to cross the Chenango river. The
other, Ruloff, was arrested iioon after.
He gave his name as E. Dalton, but
was soon recognized, among others, by
Judge Balcom ar i d Mrs. Shuns, ItulofF's
mother-in-law. ,
Upwards of 26i y earn ago, Edward H.
Ruloff married au estimable lady in
Ithaca, N. Y. He was of liberal edu
cation, learned in the law, especially
the criminal code, an accomplished
draughtsman, a short-hand writer, and
master of several ,languages. •He had
then, what he still retains, a , pleasing
exterior, a perfect knowledge of the
arts of pleasing, a something which
commanded' , respectirand at the same
time attracted and engaged sympathy
and confidence. He was a doctor,. a
lawyer, a teacher, a mechanic, as he
ilaw fit, and, what was more remarka
ble, appeared to be master of each pro
fession. Suddenly, in the year 1845, hi s
wife and child disappeared. Ruloff was
arrested on a charge of abduction, and
was confined In jail at Ithaca. He so
won the confidence of the jailor, Jar
vis, and his wife, that they
_committed
their young son, Albert M. Jarvis, .to
his tutelage. The result of his indite- .
tlons was a life of crime, which termi

[Correspondence of the Agitator.]
Heantsnuncl, Jan. 17, 1871
The party spirit begins to manifest
itself In the two branches- of the Leg
islature, in consequence of their differ
ent political complexions. Last Thurs
day the Senate took the initiative, in
the case of the co l lteste_d_seat...of ,Dertic
r-- cue Ist strict, to suppiy the
vacancy caused by the death of Sena
tor Watt in November last ; the Dem
ocrats, with their majority of one, re
fusing to dralii the committee as provi
ded Tor in the act of Assembly. This
was followed by a similar proceeding
on the part of the House, on the day
, following, by summarily disposing of
the petition contesting the seat of S.
Hager from the 11th district, upon the
ground •of informalities in the certifi
cate attached to the same ; and this be
ing the tenth day of the session, and
too late to file'another under the stat
ute, it falls to the ground. Themotion
-was made by Mr. Strang, and the' ob
jections taken and points made by him,
in a very convincing speech, were so
clear, that the united Democracy were
unable to answer or explain, so coin
pletely were they taken by surprise.--L
And while passing, I may aa•ivell say
that the talent of the House strongly
predominates in favor of the •Republi
cans, while . it is vice versa in the Sen
ate.
No one at present can anticipate
where the feud end
; •but that 'lt
will be acrimonious Mid bitter, and that
a stormy session:is before us, nnotiefoi
a moment doubts. On Friday, the lath,
the samequestion liaving.arlsen in the
case of the contested seat of Mr.
mon, of the 12th , district, the same ru
ling 'was held, and that-petition fell, to
the great discomfiture of the Demo
crats.; after which , the House adjourn
ed, to meet on• Monday evening, at 7i
o'clock. • • -
