From the New York Tribune.
Hope for the South—Greeley’s
advice to the Southern Liber
als
The South, we are told, has deci
ded for Grunt by a small majority ;
wherefore, those of the South who
were not for Grant should conform
to the judgment and set to work Jo
build up their section’s indusim
and commercial prosperity. W e
heartily second the motion. Let the
South, like the North, accept the
situation. Let her resolve not to
waste years in sighing for the im
possible, but whatever her baud find
eth to do, that do with all her might.
This advice will sound harshly in
the ears of planters tvho cannot pos
sibly grow enough to pay the ''.res
; imposed on them by men weo \ ay
nothing under such mo verier: m
i govevumenty as those of h ’to 1 \y.io~
liua and Arkaosa —yes. o ! ■' ..n of
Louisiana as she bar boo; -o &»y
nothing oi North J:. ‘"iruoosr
I Holden or Georgia under iue rule
|of her later fugitive. It !:■> hov t it

--' bling and go to work, win.a tueir
J earnings must be snatched away a
1 devoured by such daughters of the
• horse-leecti as impose taxes upon toe
long suffering people of toy •!.. e
above named.
But what eltse ? Ibe boulh must
live, and she ei.mn'ii live on slcia.e
agitation. She has apie-u tor a
kindlier usage, and it in s been tin'- *.y
denied her. Now, we are wol as
sured that the cltie.l v rci or ’ ‘ • '
Bit . Uggle are inclined to correct
abuses mu satisfy just ep'.qu ' n 'i-> '•>

utluiutati'.uioa must be luipciica ov

consideration, to pour on upon mo
w ounds of the South. D has no mon-
ger any need oi‘ or Ckaytou
or Spencer ; It. t:-..s - nty to n.iit what
these must do tun; it '•-"--i he done.
We shall be sorely disappointed if
General Grant does not soon, in Ins
own way, let it be known at the
South that thieves may no longei
hope for immunity from just retribu
tion by shouting themselves hoarse
in his praise, and stigmatizing those
opposed to them as rebels. It is
certainly bigh time fthat this game
. were played out
The Village Bar-Room as it Was.
One of the best things iu an ad
dress delivered before the Pioneer's
Central Association of Central New
York, by Gov. Seymour, was the
exaltation of the educational value
of an institution which has become
nearly extinct in these .ta*.--
roads, : the vUl.tge%a&?«&td, or
rfttner the company that used to as
semble nightly at that place of uni
versal resort. Here is the picture
which Mr. Seymour drew of that
old-style training school : Ordni ii

entertainment was a man oi larger
means and generally of more con
sideration than most of neigh

therefore never have any problems

A Singular Duel.
Avery curious encounter recently
took place in London between two
German geutleman of considerable
prominence iu social and mercantile
circles in that city. They quarrelled
—about a lady, of course — and re
solved to tight it out to the bitter
end. Seconds were accordingly ob
tained and a physician and surgeon
engaged, iu the most approved fash
ion, and the duel was arranged to
take place in Finsbury Park. The .
combat was not permitted to be
waged there, however, ami after some 1
trouble another location was selec
ted, and after the usual prelimina
ries the hostile parties proceeded at
once ro action. It is asserted that
they fought'wi h dagger-knives hav
ing blades seven inches in length ;
that ihe distance they s'ood apart
' was only at arm’s length, and the
po u. .on toe to toe. The eye of i. eh
combatant was protected by a vusi.rd,
' aud two of the lingers and the :hnmb
! were protected by a guard of the
I knives. Hostilities commenced about
7 o’clock, and in the lost lew p r *.s
the smaller antagonist won; awl ins
adversary twice in the right arm. —
The wounds, however, were no oi a

The Paris Siccle tells a curious story ii
lustratiug the evil conoequences of arbitra
ry notious cou* eruiug marriage held by
the followers of religious tecis in opposi

of the Hebrew nation make the reception
by a young woman of a gilt from a joung
man, tendered with the words, ‘T conse
crate thee to myself with this, ’ a valid
marriage. A young and indignant man,
being iu want of a rich wife, lixed upon a
wealthy young Jewess as a tit person upon
whom to try a stratagem suggested by this
custom.

eweller in the town, and succeeded in
making her choose a bracelet. While pav

money and said so to the i retended jew

of the bigoted rabbis, acquired sufficient
riclit over her to induce them to summon

A Bitter Personal Quarrel Be
tween Fred Douglas and Jolm
M. Langston.
Washinuton; Nov. 13.—A nice little
tight has sprung up between Fred Doug
lass uul John at. Langston, caused by &
slate uniat in yesterday's papers that Doug
lass was not iu favor of the appointment
of to a Cabinet position. Luig
ston yesterday elated to several gentlemen
that it tvas jealousy on the part of Doug
lass that prompted him to authorize such
a statement. He also spoke very bitterly
of Douglass, characterizing him .us a con
ceited, over-estimated teilow, who looked
lipuu the advancement of any other col
ored man as a slight to him. Dengues
ou the other hand says Langston is an
impudent, shallow-braiucd chap, who is
always anxious to push liim.-cli' fovvvaid.
Douglass cadei'l *ii tlie Crest lent esteroay,
and assured him that lie was no. m lavor
' ot .Langston, and pi-otes.ed against any
i such lienor being coin erred upon him.
I’o uay ianig/ioti also called on the i'l-esi
