Tilton’s Love Letters to

A large batch of Supreme Court Decisions
were delivered yesterday by the Court. We
will publish them in full to-morrow. The
Court held no session further than yesterday.

Decisions in full, ss it did last term.
On Saturday last a very large and important
meeting was held in Warrenton, Ga., com
posed of ihe citizens of that county, to con
sider the important questions of education
and agriculture. A large barbecue was given,
and the entire county, male and female,
black and white, turned out and were en-

in the supposition. If He consented to be
born of a woman, why might He not have
consented to be married to a woman ? And,
if He was the son of an earthly parent, why
might He not have been the father of a mortal
child? He loved some of His disciples better
than others—as, for instance, John. He un
doubtedly loved some few women devotedly,
perhaps passiaeately. Now, why might He
not have loved ore, chief and chosen among
these women, on whom He might have
poured the whole fulness of His heart, and
on whose finger He might have set a marriage-
ring, making her, indeed, like the shurch,
the '‘Bride of Christ?” I confess that, if a
new historic investigation should reveal the
proot that Jesus was a married mau, instead
of an unmated lover of all the world, I would
see an additional glory in the most wonderlul
of all historic characters. Nor do I know of
any evidence to show that He was ever mar
ried.
If either Mary or Martha, or any other saint
ly woman, bad been His wife, the fact would
probably have been mentioned; and yet what
would we have known of His friend Peter’s
wife except for the fact that her mother wus
once sick of a fever? Men’s wives are not
necessarily known to history. Of course the
probability is that Jesus was never married;
yet this is by no means a certainty.
And, as there remains a possibility that He
was, it is a pleasing reflection for me that,
while He was living in Capernaum, in the
house of Peter, (one of His disciples), He
might there have enjoyed also the still sweeter
companionship of a wife of His own. I know
that even Iienan says: “Jesus never married.”
Even admitting the fact, however, thi's does
not deny the propriety of His marrying it He
bad chosen to marry.
Bat, if Jesus liad taken a wife and fathered
a family, I believe that this fact would have so
completely humanized Him in the eyes of all
the world that he never would have been re
garded as God, or the Only-Begotten Son of
God. And yet if, as the son of Mary, He had
become the husband of a Galileean girl, and
these twain had dwelt in a cottage by the
lake of Genesaret, and un:o them had been
born children like those of whom he said,
“Suffer them to come unto me,” let me in
quire whether or not you would love the char
acter of Jesus any less thau you love it now ?

borne toward you for many days past, even
while appearing to be absorbed in the com

at Newport, I am sure you would almost dread
to be 60 much loved by ar.y human (and

A private letter from one of our prominent
citizens, now spending his vacation in Atlan

Georgia the greatest enthusiasm prevails on
the subject of the Congressional elections,
and that every District in the State, save per
haps one, will be swept by the time-honored
Democracy. In view of the momentous is
sues at stake, affecting all Southern commu
nities alike, we trust nothing .may occur io
mar so bright a prospect, but that the result
willfully justify the hopes of all lovers of a
ness, and have not yet known your love.

‘ A GREAT MISTAKE.
Lafayette, Ind., Jan 15, 1867.
My Diar Pet: ... I am thinking,
while writing these lines on my knee, toast
ing my feet at the grate, what a happy man I
ought to be ! Indeed, I think my state of mind
for the last two or three days has been some
what unmanly. Last evening and this morn
ing I was even fretful and peevish. I have bo
inch feeling now. God is good. He doea not
suffer us to be tempted beyond what we are
able to bear. That is, I suppose, if we try to
bear it. Our efforts to accomplish results in
external things are always more full of en
deavor than our efforts to rule our inward
state. At the same time, I see that I have
made a great mistake in permitting myself to
Rochester, N. Y., March 21, 1S67.
My Dear Pet: I am, at this midnight hour,
in the same hotel, aud in the same room,
wherein you and I were quartered eleven and
a half years ago, on our wedding tour ! What
a history these years unfold to our backward
gaze ! Gray hairs have stolen upon us since
then. Time and care have jointly wrinkled
our brows. Joys and sorrows have checkered
oar path. Four children have been givt n to
us on earth, and one of these has been taken
back to heaven. You have had sickness and
I have had toil. Both of us may now look
back to that wedding pilgrimage and smile at
how little we then knew ol human life ! Thank
God, the years grow richer as we grow older !
Not yet conquerers of ourselves, we are, nev
ertheless, nearer the victory now than then.
I would not exchange the present for the past!
With what self-complacency I looked upon
my life in those “green and salad days ! How
strong I thought myself for the battle ! The
revelations of later years subdue a man’s
pride by teaching him bis weakness. At this
retrospective moment, in this charmed cham
ber, I am humble, sad and calm. Life is so
ber, as I now look upon it. Death is neur as,
I now think of it. Heaven is sweet, as I now
wait for it I have not made the best, or even
a good, use of my last ten years. I have less
faith in my moral integrity now than at any
former period of my life. It is hard to live
well. Nevertheless, my dear pet, we will try
ag<iin to realize more perfectly our ideals.
May God bless us both, now and ever. Amen.
Yours, Theodore.

My Darling: * " * Day by day, I seem

Mr. Hill will be found to be the choice of hi* j , hn i n incurable dis-
constitnents in the coming election. Patriil,
orator. Statesman, he is a man of giant intel
lect, and marvelous resource, a trained, (dull

ance on the floor of Congress, will be hailed
os the advent of a new era in onr affairs, a re
turn to the halcyon days of intellectual supre
macy in the national councils on the part of
thefioutb. Mr. Hill’s address to the .Sinth
em Historical Society, published in fnll in
these columns not many months ago, was the
most masterly statement of our sectional
wrongs aud oppressions at the hands of the
dominant party that has fallen from the lips
of any man since the war. His utterances
are too fresh in the minds of four readers to
require any more allusion to them at this j
time. But no citizen is more cognizant of
the length and depth of the iniquities heaped
upon the South by organized despotisn than
Mr. Hill, and few men in Georgia, or ont of
it. are so peculiarly fitted for waging success
ful warfare against them. Be it remembered,
also, that Mr. Hill is fully alive to the crime,
against republican institutions perpetrated by
Dared, Kellogg and United States bayonets
in Louisiana; that on every occasion he has
condemned the usurpation in scathing lan
guage, and should he make his appearance
in Washington City, clothed with the powers
of delegate to the national councils from the
Empire State of the. South, we may safely
rest assured that thestrugglo of Louisiana to
burst the bonds that bind her, to shake oil'
her manacles of robbery and oppression, will
findinhim the readiest and deepest sympathy.
We shall welcome Mr. Hill's nomination then
not merely that it gratifies onr pride of race,
and ol section, but for the more persona! rea
son that through him, Louisiana will hare
gained a brilliant, courageous champion, and
an advocate in the halls of Congress, unsur
passed for boldness, force and eloquence.
Five years ago there were only about six

“I DO NOT WISH TOUR ECONOMY TO PINCH YOUR
DAILY PURSE.”
Lafayette, Ind., Jan. 16, 1817.
My Darling: . . . Of eourse I wish
you to economize as much as possible till I
iffct rid of the burden of carrying a house on
my back. But I do not wish your economy
to pinch your duiiy purse or to weary your
daily peace. We have been, in many and va
rious respects, so abundantly prospered in
this life, that we ought to be willing to bear
our pecuniary difficulties with cheerfulness
aud patience. By and by I hope to work my
self clear of all incumbrances. But, mean
while, it is better to be contented than to be
rich, and nobler to endure than to complain.
Until I had roofed your head and carpeted
your feet, I felt discontented with my lot and
fertunes. Bat having performed a gentle
man’s duty of putting my wife in a pretty
house, I shall endeavor to perform ■‘a Chris
tian's duty of “Owing no man anything,”
and particularly that other part which con
sists in “Loving one another.”

HOW WOULD JRSUB HATE APPEARED AS A MAR
RIED MAN?
Oshkosh, Wis., Feb. 14, ’67.
My Dear, Orthodox Wife:—I have been
speculating considerably lately on the charac
ter and career of Jesus; and I wondor whether
you will be shocked when I mention one of
my meditations. It is this: How would He
have appeared in the character of a married
man? Certainly, even to yonr reverential
and adoring view ot Him as *' God manifest
in tbe flesh, "there ought to bo nothing profane
Akron, O., Jan 15, 1869.
My Dear Wife: Ever since last October I
have been lecturing every week—sometimes
every night, and the proceeds have been all
swallowed up in my extravagant debts. It
this spendthrift tendency of mine is ever to
be curbed, it must be by your helpful ty-iticistn
of it, not by a parallel liberality of outlay by
yourself. I am putting myself daily to as
much fatigue as human nature can endure, in
order, if possible, to clear off my obligations
to my creditors, and to keep afterwards abreast
with the world. Your letter, a few days age,
stating that you could not live ou your szlary,
made me sick at heart; and temporarily I
felt like giving up my journey and going
home. To-day yon send me a bill of $53 for
Cad’s clothes— an amount which I regard as
so great for a family of our resources as to bo
almost as wicked as my own outlays lor pic-
tu»es. In all the three weeks of my last ab
sence I have not made, above expenses, $400.
Not one penny of all my lecture-earnings for
years has tvsr yet gone into a bank. I look
upon our money-spending tendencies as cru
elly wrong. At this moment I am well-nigh
broken down iu voice, and know not how I
shall get through with to-night's lecture. Am
I wrong when I say that I cannot look with
equanimity on squandering so much money
in fine drosses for the children ? My heart
suffers a pang in saying this; but I can
not help saying it. Wo mast either sell
our establishment in Brooklyn, or else man
age it on a less expensive scale. I have
made a vow to bny not another picture, aud
not another unnecessary article, during the
present year. It is with something like
shudder that I look forward to the
prolonged slavery of public lecturing every
winter; and, if the proceeds are to bo freely
thrown away by boih of ns, I may as well
stop it now. I have suffered for ten days
past an agony of remorse at the k froitless exer
tions I have made by three years of speaking,
fruitless because their harvest has been nn-
f rofitablv spent. Judging by all the families
visit, I know we aro literally throwing away
our inheritance. At least I am aroused; and
I^appeal to you to put a peremptory check
upon any and every unnecessary expenditure
whioh you see me make. Dress tho children
in calico fora year, and let mo get out of my
misery. Yours in dust and ashes,
Theodore Tilton.

All the exhibitions which I have made of my
self to my friends have been of usual Liliar-
ity. This has been tho utmost shallowness
superficiality. One thing I have enjoyed;
that is my work. It has been unuuuuliy
heavy, and therefore nnnsuully beneficent.
But leaving my work aside, all my otbar
pleasures have been pains. For two or three
weeks I have resolutely repressed all allusions
to my feelings, when writing to you, not
wishing to mar your vacation. But as the
time of your home-coming cannot be very far
off, I open the flood-gates to-night. I will
therefore, aay that I have missed you for the
past month with something of the same awful-
ness and heart-break as if I hud lost you for
ever to death.
But I have discovered, by searching my
soul, that I love you more than any human
ought to love another. I have seen some no
ble women this summer, whom I admire, and
whom, in a certain way, I love. All my life I
have known something of the nature and ex
perieooe of true friendship.
From my early years I have loved and loved
you. Bat all the past experiences of my
y
Thug far the rangeg of the gratshopperg appear to
be confined aim oat exclusively to the northern aud
western portions of the State.
The Seneca Courier says: Since the grasshoppers
came haying has progressed with increased vigor. A
failure of the corn crop will no doubt causo a good
market for hay.
From Netawaka, Jackson county, comes ibo word
that .lie grasbhoppers made their appearance there on
tho 6th, onr iLformant liking their swarms to the
heaviest snow storm he ever witnessed.
Scientific men dispute as to tho species of grasshop
pers prevalent this year. Hume'maintain that It is :he
red legged variety, and others take the yellow-legged
side of the controversy- The color of the hoppe
leg does not seem to have any appreciable effect on
his appetite.
The Ottawa Journal grows facetious and advises the
farmers to take in their fences and farm implements
as that seems to be about ail they have left
mentioning, unless the late rains have dune something
fer the benefit of the corn crop.
The Holton Express puts it aftor this style: “Just
before going to press, the grasshoppers came down
lorce to stay with us. One of our ^subscribers says
they took all of his peaches and threw tho pits'at him
when he came to look at them.”
High winds at Holton on tho 9th very considerably
thinned out the countless swarms of grasshoppers
that for some days had been playing sad havoc with
•very green thing. The grape crop was Injured to
but it still will be fair.
Tbe Atchison Patriot says: “A gentleman at O
Bend says the locusts have swooped down on the
kansas Valloy at tuat point aud westward, and are
leaving a particle of vegetation behind them.”
The Wichita Eagle of the 30th reports that '-a stream
of Minnesota grasshoppers about twenty miles
and millions deep, passed about thirty miles west of |
us in the direction of the Gulf, last Monday. Thsy j ^7 i»ut».'ic
destroyed, our informant says, everything green for
the distance of twenty miles wide.”
The Marshal] County Gazette says: “Tho lossos by
the grasshopper plague iu this section have been im
mense; some who are engaged extensively in cattle
aud had a large extent of corn planted, compute their
osses at from $3,000 to $5,000. A general feeling of
thankfulness is, however, felt that tho wheat crop was
safely harvested before they appeared.”
The Olathe Mirror takes the Now Letter to task as
“The News Letter had an item a few weeks
ago to the effect that the grasshoppers were eating up
the peaches iu this conn ly. This item is going the
-ounds of the State press, and does the county great
injustice. The fact is, th ie is not grasshoppers
enough iu tho county to feed a healthy canary bird.”
The Junction City Tribuno of tho 30th thus an-
aouuced the coming of the wing d scourge: “Ou
Monday of this week the dreaded grasshoppers ar
rived iu this section. Tho air was literally filied with
thorn, and when they were looked at they flew Ligh iu
tue air, they resembled falling snow. They have
alighted only in spots, but we Ltar that tbsy are In
the Republican Valloy from Milford down.”
The following programme is sai l to havo worked
most admirably in several counties: By a precon
certed plan, the farmers a t fire to piles of dry straw
on tho borders of the wheat fields, and smothered the
blaze with green hay. This caused volumes of
smoko to roll over the fields. The grasshoppers did
not relish this proceedure at all. They roae with
such a multitudinous hum of wings at to der-peu into
a roar like thunder, and fled tbe country. In that
way tho farmers have a fair prospect of saving tbe |
crops. | Htepe from the
A correspondent of the Atchison Champion,
from Cawkor Citty, of date 3d inat., states that he
found the pests by tbe mi'lion for a distance of ono
hundred and twonty miles. H 'speaks of the dam
age done to the corn aud garden vegetables, aud says:
It was Interesting to notice, along the way, how black
these insects covered the corn stalks aud groves of
young cottonwoods. But whero they had finished
their work tbe corn fields looked like thousands of
biistled spears stnek in the ground, so thoroughly
had they takeu the leaves—the stalks and stems of the
leaves left standing. But singularly enough, they
passed over the sugar cauo, scarcely touching It,
while they ate the leaves of fruit aud forest trees.
Here is another way to get rid of the “pesky crit
ters,” as given by a correspondent of the St. Jo. Her
aid: Uncle Johnny Roots, an English farmer living
four miles south of Seneca, informed me yesterday
that he drove the grasshoppers out of his orchard by
smoking them with damp hay. He says a small
bunch ot hay so fired that the wind will carry the
smoke across the field wi 1 stampede several acres of
them at a time, lliis is certainly a simple remedy,
and worth the attention of gardeners and owners of
orchards and vineyards. It might also pay to try it
In corn fields. It is possible that by a concerted ef
fort the people of a neighborhood might entirely get
rid of the pests by this method. An old rotton log
or stump, or pile of damp chips might be kept doing
service by burning as long as the hoppers remained
in the vicinity of tho fields.
A correspondent writing from Seneca thus graphic
ally describes the scene: They have stripped the or
chard and yaid trees till thoy are as bare as in tbo
winter; they have not eaten grapes nor the leaves to
any great extent, but In many iUMtances havo cut off
the stem and let the clnKtors fall to the ground; they
have not eaten winter apples badly, though they have
eaten tho leaves entiro from the trees; they have
done great destruction to peacbe«, leaving on some
trees nothing but the pits hanging; tomatoes, water
willow, white ash. to some extent; wild plum, poke
plant and quince, they soem to havo avoldod. Clip*
pinger’s, Uodgins’ and Root’s orchards, throo of tho
heaviest in tho sorth part of the county, hxvo suffer
ed severely, fatally aa far as this year’s crop is con
cerned. should the fruit which is now hanging on tho
leaf iss trees not mature. This of the orchards mere
ly, to say nothing of the immense amount of corn
and fodder aud garden produce destroyed.

How tiie Fiutes Stami* out the Smallpox.
The Piute tribe has lately been nearly deci
mated by small-pox and other contagious dis
eases, which has alermod them so much that
whenever one of their number iH taken siok
they immediately brake up camp and leave
the sufferer to perish. All ure prohibited,
under the penalty of death, from touching the
corpse. The consequence is that tunny parts
of their reservation are literally covered with
hum in skeletons. Wo found a sick i-quaw and
pappoos. The child was dond, but still re
mained strappedjto tho woman’s buck, a hor
rible sight. The poor woman appeared to lx*
paralyzed in her lower limbs u common dis
ease with her kind, With the aid of stick,
she had dragged herself more than two miles
over sharp rocks and scorching sand. One
of our company attempted to give her a cup
of water. Hhe knocked tho cup lrom hio hand,
uttering hideous, incoherent screams, and
fought like an infuriated tigress. Nothing
could induce the Indians to approach near
her. She died daring night.
This year is likely to bo memorable for “the
slaughter af the innocent*,”—those innocent
light-fingered salary-grabbers who coolly put
their hands in the people’s treasury and took
out more than a million of dollars. —Portland
