A LoCoFoco's OPINION OF MR.. CLAY.


1t hardly need be said says the Brooklyn Ad-
vertiser) that there is every difference between
Locofoco gentleman and Locofoco proper; and
perhaps it was never better illustrated than on
recent occasion at Norwich, Con. The Locofocos
held one of their mass meetings in that town on
the 81 inst, and among the speakers on the occa-
sion was the Hon. Noyes Billings, the Locofoco
State Senator from the New London district, who
made the following manly remarks npon the cha
racter of Mr.. Clay. We copy from the report of
the Norwich Courier, and they do Mr.. Billings
great honor:
Henry Clay, name of which America and
every American may well feel proud--a name
which more than any other of which ever read,
awoke my youthful enthusiasm, my profound adj
mration. Should he be elected, the honor Of the
country, at home and abroad, will be safe. Ia
making him their candidate for the Presidency
the Wing party are paying debt of gratitude
long since due, and which ought to have been
discharged in 1910 A man of unequailed execu-
tive talents, he will rally around HIM splendid
Government; and indeed sir" concluded Mr.. B.,
"this is just what | fear--I fear Government

BETTING ON ELEcTIoNs-No Presidential cans
vass, within our recollection, has been character
zed like the present one, for excessive betting.
Hundreds of dollars are wagered on even town
sh'ps-every city, county, and State, throughout
the Union, have champions ready To stake their
thousands and tens of thousands on the different
| candidates, not only for President and Vice Pres
ident, but Governors, Senators, and Assembly
men. In fact, the betting mania is spreading over
the country like an epidemic even farmers are
touched with its irresistible influence aud horses,
cows and sheep are freely bet on the result of
the pending contest On Saturday, a country
man slipped into public house, celebrated as a

| of "mountan dew" cast an inquiring glance on
The beIters, for nearly every man assembled there,
| and the rooms were crowded, was anxious to bet

sponded Democrat provided you'll bet LOCO

AT last one man, who appeared determined to
make bet, offered 1000 10 400 on the general
resut-ihe countryman who mad been calmly
surveying the whole scene, and who came TO the
city expressly to know how bets were going,"

If the Rev. Sydney Smith could have Just taxi

would have thought that collection for the pay

was the "ready." The countryman from his ap-
parenty exhaustIess wallet still shelled out; in
short, every bet offered on the general result was
taken By him. Just as they were about agreeing
on shareholders, Mr.. Jeremiah Biting (the name
of the countryman) startled the crowd by saying,
Gentlemen, pve few hundred in the wallet yet,
and if there is any person here wants to bet that
Henry Clay, of Kentucky, wont be elected Pres

any reasonable amount that Henry Clay would

explanation now took place, the money was re-

REMARKABLE.-The Boston Transcript states
that DR.. Smith, who has recently visited the forks
OF the Mississippi, in an editorial article on Medi-
cine in Iowa, and other matters, gives some Gu
rlous facts, by stating from good authority, that
no person officially associated with the Indians Of
the Upper Mississippi, ever saw or heard of deaf
Indian, or one whose eye-sight was impaired by
age, or whose teeth were essentially decayed
No Indian of the Sioux tribe ever required spec
tacles or discovered any advantages from trying
those of travellers. Mr.. Reed and Mr.. Doe, The
practical farmers employed by government to
teach them agriculture, both concur in declaring
this to be true, after residence of six years in
their midst. Opthalmia however, is common
complaint from which they suffer very consider
ably.
