PROPOSED MASSACRE OF THE WHTEs.-The N. Y.
Sun contains an extract from private letter from ST.
Domingo, which mentions that there is much anxiety
in consequence Of the threatened invasion by the
Haytiens under President Perro The writer further
says that it has been proposed by Perrot
all the whites and that he only waiting for the aid
he is to receive from the Abolonists in the United
States TO carry it into execution. The reader, after
this, may place what confidence he pleases in tie
report. The letter says:
'Pierrots instructions to the army have been made
public, by which it appears that the dreadful scenes
OF the old massacre are TO be re-enacted. He is to
only the most beautiful white women for his
officers. All our women over forty years of age,
captured by his army, be taken to his palace
chained back to back Our young women under that
age, down TO girls Of FIVE years Of age, TO be de-
livered to his officers and soldiers, He is a
master workman in the trade of human butchery.
Although now an old and feeble man, he was in youth
the leader of the powerful jet blacks, who fell upon
and destroyed their masters. He murdered his mas
ter and mistress with his own hands. Their only
daughter beautiful creature whom the female slaves
were about TO murder, Perro rushed into the
and saved her. he made his wife, and drew around his
new estate large number of negroes who had also
taken their masters daughters as wives. AT the ex-
pratlon Of some years, when the race of mulat-
toes first began to excite civil commotion the bloody
Pierrot the first to plunge the fatal dagger into
the bosom of his wife and children. His example
followed by his neighbors, and the whites and
mulattoes thus exterminated In that district.
This act was applauded by the blacks. Pierrot be-
the Virginius of Hayt and at last he assembled
to the presidential chair. He has vowed that every
white male shall be exterminated, with the female
children under five years of age.

SINGULAR AND DISTRESSING ArFLieTioS-fhe family
of Truman Judson, at Woodbury., Conn., consisting of
nine members have all been sick with malignant form
of typhus fever Out of this number FIVE have diedthe
father and mother, one and two daughters Il has
been remarkable that the sickness has been confined
exclusively to this house, although apparently of
malignant character and for weeks there have been
from four TO six watchers day and night, no othei
person in the town has taken the disease. But the
most peculiar fact is, that just wentyone years ago
this sickness appeared in the family of the mother
Of this household which family this composed Of
nine MEMBERS and out Of these nne the number as now
five, carried 10 their graves As now, other per-
Of the town then took the fever.

Cure OF ASEURIsM BY ELEcTRIcITY-When eleciri-
city passed through egg, the abumen of the egg Is
coagulated This fact has induced eminent surgeon
IN France to cure aneuTsm by the meansby pass
ing electricity through it, for the purpose of coaguIang
the blood On testing this idea, il was found to be just
one. The mode of operation is follows The blood
is first sagnated by pressing the artery then punc
turing needles thrust into the iumOr which commhn
with the electrical pile These two needles should
be covered with solaung varnish in order to avoid,
as much possible the loss of electricity in traversng
the tissues and especially 10 avoid the pam it occasions
They must have point of contact and it is around this
point that the aIbuminous form, which The OPERA

MICHIGAN uersus INDIANA.-The proportion OF
adults in the State of Michigan, who can neither
read nor write, is one in every forty-fOur.
In Indiana, one in every eighteen adults cannot
read or write. What makes such a difference in adj
joining States ! Answer that will you !-ErchaRge
paper.
We believe that the evil owes its origin and exis-
tence, In great degree, to our peculiar system of
practical politics electoncering for oice,-or
Their to the ertent to which carry the custom of
stump-speaking. Perhaps nine-tenths of our elec-
pioneering is done in that way 1t follows, that our
people are a taking instead of reading people.
Newspapers, with us, are consequently but second
airy means of affecting public opinion, and far
from constituting the fourth estate" as they do in
of the older States and in the shoots sent
out from Them This being the case ability to read
is matter of far less concern with us than with
them; and the means to attain it, schools and
papers, are comparatively neglected. On the other
hand we have without doubt, greater proportion of
orators or public speakers than almost any other State
Every candidate for office, from Governor down to
Constable is speech-maker; and is expected to
tighten his constituents by numerous orations, as to
his political views and personal merits, for the sta
ton he desires. From this system originates not only
the evil spoken of in the above extract, but another
Vascllaon in political action is, general rule, in
evita ble This vascaon in Indiana has been remark
able; and an observation is attributed to one of the
greatest men of the age based upon hat Indiana had
politics. We latter ourselves, however, that the
evil is decreasing, and that people beginning
to read and think more than they formerly have DONE
As they progress in this disposition, the proper RENE
dy will be applied, and the degrading comparison
above quoted will be eradicated We shall then have
more schools and better newspapers than now be
supported, and dernagogues will be enlarged.

The N. Y. News says-There is reason to
believe that the great struggle in Parliament on the
question of the Corn Laws, may have ELECTED from
the protective and arstocratc classes in England an
attempt excite passions in order couneract
the growth of free trade and therefore that the next
steamer may bring more warlike accounts. Indeed,
the last steamer brought lots of New York State

some of these were bought to-day at 99i, five per
cents. We have even this side demonstrations

DOuhlY Wrong.

Our neghbor of the Freeman in commenting a
strange paragraph, uses the following naughty Ian
guage
Tho Iss.onJao'- Of H4nt ~er cursed. Noah
prophesied-(a man just aroused from drunkenness can
hardly be supposed have carte blanche from the Al
mighty to half the world )-Noah prophesied that
Canaan would be cursed and be of servants
unto his breIhren.- Genesis tx. 25"
This language is decidedly wrong. If we construe
the language right, the descendants of Ham cere
cursed IT is only play upon peords to contend the
contrary. Witness:
And the sons of Noah that went forth of the ark,
Shem. and Ham, and JaPheth and Ham IS the
father Of Canaan
These are the three Of Noah and Of them was
the whole earth overspresd
And Noah began to be husbandman, and he planted a
vineyard:
Aud he drank the wine, and drunken; and he was
uncovered within his tent.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, the nakedness Of
his father, and told his two brethren without.
And Shem and Japheth took garment and laid it upon
both their shoulders ard went backward and covered the
nakeness of their father: and their faces backward
and they not their fathers nakedness.
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his
younger son had done unto him.
And he said, cursed be Canaan a of servants
shall he be unto his brethren.-Genesis tx. 1876.
Now if Ham the father Of Canaan, and Noah
said Cursed be Canaan do not but that the
" descendants of Ham" lrere cursed" Enlighten
