CLAY IN MISSOURI.

A correspondent of the National Intelli-
gencer. who writes from St. Louis, says:
| say TO you (and my means of knowing
are of the annplest kind) that the great bat
lie of 1914 will be fought as bravely, as de-
terminedly, and as powerfully in Missouri as
in any other State. Thus early the slogan is
heard along all our borders, through the mid
lands, over mountain and plain, in every
Wing habitation, every where. We are re-
solved to be the Cinderella of the Union no
longer. Organization and preparation for
action are going ON with beartiness and una
nimity. Every Wing heart beats with one
pulse, and that is for him of Ashland. And
the sum of the whole matter is, that if MIR.
Van Buren, is the Locofoco candidate, we
proclaim TO the great Wing party throughout
the land that, unless all human calculations
and foresight shall be put to naught, Missouri
will vote for HENRY CLAY.
FROM the Broome IN. W Republican.
at is truly gratifying to see a large ma
jority of our young men takingthe right side
in all party questions. At least four out OF
five of the young voters cast their ballots in
favor of HENRY CLAY and sound republican
principles. This is as it should be. The
liberties of the country cannot be subyert-
ed SO long as the young men remain uncor-
rupted."
RMARK OF THE ALBAN JOURNAL.
Thus speaks the Broome Republican in
reference TO the signal triumph achieved by
our friends in that county at their recent
town elections. The fact stated about the
political predictions ofthe young men is
a most gratifying one, and as significant as
it is gratifying. We believe with the Re
publican that full four-ffihs of the young men
of the State are tried, devoted, ardent Wings,
And who shall doubt the success of a cause
which thus commends itself 10 the favor and
enlists the active and Jealous exertions ofthe
young men?

A SMALL TOUCH OF THUNDER.

The Democratic Capitol, a new Locofoco
paper, published at Washington city, thus
asks and answers a very important question.
"FoR WHAT DO WE FIGHT?-For princi-
ples-principles born in the bloody revolu-
tion-written upon the shields of the war
riors of '76, and inscribed on the tomb-stones
of the dead of those days"
From which it appears that the Locofocos,
in fighting for the restoration of Van Buren,,
the Sub-Treasury, and free trade, are fight
ing over again the battles of our revolution
Now we were not aware, before the Capitol
kindly informed us, that Mr.. Van Buren, was
s'born in a bloody revolution"-thatthe Sub
Treasury scheme was 'written upon the
shields of the warriors of 49, or that free
trabe is inscribed on the tombstone, of the
dead of those days.'-Louisuiue Jour.

FRIGHTFUL SCENE WITH A LEoP-

ARD.-The Equestrian Company, now per-
forming at Front street Theatre, as has been
their frequent custom, passed through sever
al of our streets yesterday afternoon, with a
band of music, and their troupe of horses
Accompanying them was Herr Driesbach, in
a carriage, driving with him one ofhis Loop
ards. When in front of Dix & Fogg's Fount-
ain Inn, Light street, it was agreed upon to
partake of refreshments, for which purpose
they alighted and went into the Hotel, Herr
Driesbach taking with him his Leopard
After remaining awhile, the party proceed
ed TO retire to their horses and CARRIAGES
Herr Drissbach had the Leopard under his
right arm. When nearing the door, he was
encountered by a crowd of boys, whose I'M
governable curiosity led them to see the ami
NAL. In the crowd, just as the lion-tamer
had stepped upon the pavement, a boy about
ten years of age, named Flemming, son OF
! Patrick Fleming, residing in Camden street,
was thrown against the Leopard by some Of
his companions. 1t caught him with itspaw
and in an instant grasped the little fellows
head firmly in its jaws. Driesbach, with
great nerve and frmness, Immediately thrust
his hand into the Leopard's mouth, thrusting
it down its throat, and by means Of pulling
out its tongue, caused the animal to release
its hold. The 10y received a severe wound
on the CHI eek, about three inches in length
f and depth nearly TO the bone, besides one
or two other wounds on the head. He wa:
taken to the office of DIR. Mclaughlin, who
dressed the wounds, which are not consider
ed dangerous, although very painful.
The leopard appeared perfectly furious ant
determined on making sure ofits prey. Th'
r keeper called for a knife, when endeavorin:
; to subdue his pet, and intended to take it
t life, but it had let go its hold before an in
? strument could be handed him. The keep
er deserves credit for his presence of mine
: in this encounter, but we hesitate not TO speal
a in condemnation of taking such beasts Q
d prey, uncaged and unclaimed, through TIL
s public streets of a crowded city.-Bah. Pa

@The Legislature of Ohio has passed a
law reducing the compensation of its mem

BRITISH WINGS.

So the locofocos denominate all who belong
to the Wing party-Yet the Wings. as a body,
do all in their power TO tax British Goods and
to enco urage American industry, both farming
aud mechanical whilst the locofocos are inces-
sanity striving to break down the tariff so as to
admit British fabrics duty %'free,' 10 the great in
Jury OF our farm ers, and ruin of our manufacture
ers and mechanics. The locofocos are forstree
trade'-which means free for the British 10 send
here what they please; but no trade a: all for us
Which, then, in Iact, is the BRITISH party?

The Wings of South Carolina are deter
mined to do all that men can do TO carry the
State for Clay. Clay Clubs are organizing
all over the State. A State Convention
comes off at Columbia in April-and from
present appearances, there will be a full and
enthusiastic representation in the Wing Ma
tional Convention at Baltimore in May next
The good work goes bravely on.

The Locofocos in Connecticut have for a
long time been consulting together on the

OREGON.
BALTIMORE, March 9th, 1914

The Louisville Journal referring to the
rage of emigration to the land ofOregon re-
marks:-"Every nation is addicted to some
particular vice. The most Characteristic
vice of our nation is an insane rage for ter
ritorial acquisitions. We have more land
than we can use, and yet, like a miser with.
overgrown Golfers, we fret that we have not
enough. Our ayaricious eyes are by turns
directed to Canada, to Texas, and to Oregon.
One fever is scarcely abated before We are
afflicted with another. What is to be the
result of this disease, the wisdom of heaven
can only foretell. 1t may prove fatal only
TO our national integrity; or it may prove ia
tai TO our national existence. The Roman
Empire was broke up into fragment by the
weight of its i'll Joined members; and the flu
ture historians may have the same story 10 re-
late when dwelling on the fate of the Amer
ican Union.
"What there is in the territory of Oregon
10 tempt our national cupidity, no one can
tell. OF all the countries ON the face OF
this earth, it is one of the least favored OF
heaven. 1t is the mere riddlings of creation.
It is almost as barren as the desert of Africa,
and quite as unhealthy as the Campania Of
Italy.
"All the writer's agree in representing Or
egon as a vast extent of Mountains, and val
leys of sand dotted over with green and cul-
tivated spots. This is the representation
given of it by Cox, Bonneville, Farnham,an and
Kinds. Now that such a country should ex-
cite the hopes and the cupidity of citizens
ofthe United States inducing them 10 leave
comfortable homes for its heaps of sands. j:
indeed passing strange. Russia has her 81
IBERIA, and England has her Botany Bay, ano
if the United States should ever need
country to Danish her roguesa and scoundrels
the utility ofsuch a region as Oregon, will BIZ
demonstrated.
.sThose sections of Oregon, that are mos
advantageously situated for culture and prof
it, are unhealthy and abound in reptiles anc
and insects which render life almost insup
portable. There are moccasins, copper
heads, rattlesnakes, scorpions, Lizards, tar
a~ntulas, fieas, ticks, mosquitoes, gallinipper
and other pests, of which neither entomolog,
nor zoology nor ~erpeology gives any &C
count"

The presence of ladies at several Wing
celebrations seems have disturbed the bile of
the Locofocos by exciting their fears. a pa
per in Ohio holds the following language:
"The women of New York, Philadelphia,
and Baltimore, may engage in d~ebaucheries
and drunkenness-they may sing songs.a and
swell the chorus in praise of Henry Clay,
&c, but the purity and virtues of Ohio's
fair daughters will never receive such a
stain.n
Now what can a person who would utter
such a sentence know or care about purity
and virtue? If the Locofocos were really
such friends TO moderation and order, as in
their zeal against Wing assemblages and pro-
c~essions and other appliances" they affect
TO be, they would rather rejoice at the addi-
tional guaranty for the preservation of deco
rum and the restraint of party passion whieh
is secured by the presence of the gentler sex
at these large gatherings. Mrs. Child, in
one of her excellent works, exclaims eBless-
ed be God, the custom forbids women TO
e%lectioneer or fight" May the sentiment
remain till war and politics have passed
away. In their compassionate hearts, may
the teachings of nature ever be unperverted
by maxims of war or that selfshness which so
frequently dignifes itself with the name of
patriotism! But when fathers, husbands.
brothers, and friends have bound themselves
to the great work of redeeming their common
country from corrupt, mischevious, and OPP
p~ressive rulers, shall they not be permitted
to grace those enthusiastic meetings as spec
~tators? And if they go to witness the STIR
ring, yet perfcntly harmonious and well con-
Quoted proceedings, and 10 listen TO The elo-
quence and wit of the orators, and show forth
their general sympathy in the good cause, is
it not quite right and proper,-and would
any one with the soul of a man think of ap
plying to them such foul terms as those QUOT
ed ahove?-Nashrille Banner.
