Quoted TO the char. Although not lengthy,
we do not deem il of sufficient importance

SONIC PROCESSION.
which

The Masonic Procession, which
took place a, Pi,isburg on Wednesday
last was a brilliant and imposing affair.
The lodges appeared in full regalia,
and after appropriate ceremonies, an
address was delivered by the Hon.
CHARLES SHALER. We find it pub
li>hed in the Prtsburg Mercury, and
it concludes with the following 5eauti-
full expression of truth:
Many time have clouds Of dark
ness covered the glorious sun of Ma
sonry, but it has as often emerged, as
II is now emerging from the clouds of
political persecution, with a radiance
brighter from the contrast; many an at
tempt has been made through the long
trac, of time to extinguiSh its existence,

AFAITHFUL ANIMAL.

The ST. Louis Reveille of the 21st.
inst. contains an extremely interesting
letter from Solitaire" written on
the Missouri river during trip to the
new town of Ohio. The writer speaks
of encountering character in the per.
son of Signor J. Paldi, Piedmontese
by birth, music master in the Infantry
band of the 9th Regiment, who was
present in the battles of the Sth and 9th
of May. He was on his way to St.
Louis, bearer of letters to Major Gen.
Brooke and Others. In his company
was fine young pointer dog belong
ing TO Major Brown, who fell during
the bombardment Of the fort opposite
MatamOras:
When the remains ofthis gallant SOL
der were entcmbed, his pet dog, who
bad lain near the spot where the Major
was suffering until he was borne
thence, mingled his wall with the sound
OF the muffied drum, and could not be
silenced. He searched everywhere for
the living form ofhiS master, and, ind
ing him not. seemed to understand the
mournfnl business of his burial; he
waited until the sad rites were over,
and then coiling himself up, he laid
down at the foo, ofthe flag staff, upon
the turf which covered the remains of
the brave Major, and sent forth his
howl of grief until the hearts of all
who heard Lin were impressed with a
fresh sensation of sorrow. Paldl IN
tends to present him to Gen. Brooke.
On The 9th, Paldi having given up
his horse to an officer, was mounted
on mule. and was attending at the
artillery train, when a shower of con-
sitter came, carrying away his canteen,
grazing his cap, slightly wounding his
foot, and starting his mule off like mad
right towards a detachment of,he enc
my'S cavalry. He in vain tried TO stopit
head long progress, and could not con-
ceive what made him below and cut
up in such an on,rageon>y frantic man.
ner. when looking behind him the
cause was at once explained-the
mules tail bad been carried away by
shot! Like ship without a rndder,
he was beating fast on lee shore, when
his rider was forcedto shoot him 10 stop
his progress.

A lady residing near New Albany,
Ind, was bitten on the foot, few days
ago, by a copper-head snake, which
caused such agony, that her life was

pieces, and bound to the wound, which
in short time extracted the poison,
and the lady is now convalescent.

MURDER or A SLAvE.-A private letter has
been placed in onr hands from a highly re-
spectacle gentleman in Savannah, giving the
particulars OF a most tragic event which h d
occurred som time since in that city. The
writer had mentioned the principal fact in a
previous letter, and now gives farther partic-
nlars in answer 10 a doubt expressed by his
correspondent here of the truth of ;he story.

fallen asleep on the table, and the master was
let IN by another slave. The master inquir-
ed for Fortune and, on being told where
he was, Immediately rushed into the room
and stabbed him with a Bowie knife three
or four times, and afteru ards dragged him
oil the table and kicked him. The house was
by this time aroused, and the negro picked
up by one Of his fellow slaves, who told his
master that Fortune was dying. Herb then
went for a Doctor, but before he arrived the
slave was u corpse. Az Mr.. Herb was sor-

W~AsHINGToN, ID. &. Feb. IL, 1916,
The Oregon debate in the Lower House
has come TO a conclusion. The resolution to
give the twelve months notice of the cessa.
ton of the Joint Occupancy, passed by Il ve-
ry large majority. The resolution has the
following important qualifications "Noth-
ing herein confined is intended to interfere
with the right and discretion OF the proper
authorities of the two contracting parties to
renew or pursue negotiations for an amiclble
settlement of the controversy respecting the

on the contrary, may more speedily hlsten

The question is now brought dowa to a nlr-

England may put forth another effort to settle
the IN litter by negotiation, making the 10Th
parallel, together with a few advantages, the

From The Uesicrn citizen.
O'CONNELL'S RECEPTION OF A
STAKEHOLDER.

| had the pleasure, a few days since, to
meet an old friend who has recently returned
from a visit across the ocean. and among 9TH
er incidents Of interest, he mentioned one in
connection with his introduction to the great
Rcpraler,' which will 90 to show the con-
duct of this noble man towards those who
cnslave a portion of Gods heritage.
While in London, my friend met with a
rich planter from Missouri, an Irishman by
birth, but having resided in this country long
enough to inhale some of the feelings Of the
southern '.patriarchs." had become a warm
defender Of the 'dirinc institution" He
was also Il warm admirer of O'Connell cx-
travagant in his praise, and bent upon seeing
him at least. On Il certain occasion, my
friend and this gentleman met again in Ire
land, at some place where there had been a
:" repeal meeting" and they had an opportu-
nifty of obtaining the Introduction so much
desired. They accordingly applied to Mr..
Ray, an Irish gentleman, for an Introduction.
Mr.. r. said he would speak to Mr.. O'Con-
nell, and after a short absence returned, say
ing 4" the gentlemen would be received, pro-
vided they were not shareholders, and did
not come from a slave State"
The gentleman from Missouri said he was
from Il slave State, and the owner of slaves,
but was very DESTROYS OF meeting OC onhell,
and was a great admirer of him.
"Sir," said Mr.. Ray, "you must stand
back, you Saanot be admitted"
My friend remarked that he was a native
OF New England, a descendant of the Pill
grim Fathers" and at thai time, when a
home, a resident of Iowa; and although no
an abolitionist, the uncompromising enem,
of slavery.
He was then conducted by Mr.. Ray to tn
audience chamber of O'Couneli, and enjoye
the privilege of meeting that great and goo

ANNIVERSARY MEETING.

A private letter Of NJ. W. C~hapman's, to
the editor of the Anti-Slavery Standard, thus
speaks Of the recent meeting in Massachu-

The GRAVEYARD AT Observation-Disclosures,
a solitary island, about a mile and a half
from the main land of Africa, has been, for
some years past, the destination Of innumer-
able vessels, where they resorted for guano.
The mortality among such a number of peo-
pie rendered it imperative that a place should
be set apart for the burial of the dead. And
this they called their graveyard. In the
course of time the whole of the guano was
gradually carried away, with the exception
of the graveyard. This spot had all along
been 7, spected, and, from its character, held
sacred by all who had frequsnted the island.
The cupidity of mankind has, however its
limits and for the sake of the guano, the
graveyard has been entrsnched upon, and

FELLowsuIP WITH SLAvEuoLDERs.-lt
must be obvious even To a superficial observ-
or, that the division of the VI. Il. Church is
only in form and name tina! there is no hon-
est heartfelt withdrawing of fellowship on
account Of slavery. If some portions Of
the north hold ont such Appearances, it is on
ly for effect sake they present other appear
anccs tha moment they come in contact with
the S1utl. In this view we arc fully sus-
tlinrd by whit follows. 1t is an extract from
IA letter written by Bishop Andrew, giving an
account OF the late session Of the North Car
ulini Conference. DR.. LeyinG' referred to is
Il member Of the New York Conference, and
engage as Financial Secretary Of The Amer
lean Bible Society. Hear then what a slave
holding Bishop says of this northern man
who, we underatinl. has bolstrl that the NJ.
l.. Church is nov fee from Slavery. The
Bishop sayS:-
"The interest ami pleasintnoss Of the &C.
casion were MT j little enhanced by the pres
rnco and ministerial lIbors Of the Rev. Df.
L%ovings, Finlncitl Secretary Of the Amcri-
can Bible Society, who visited US for the
purpose Of promoting, as far as practicable,
7ho gOl-liko objects Of this truly catholic and
glorious institution. Our friend acquitted
himself well, and nobly sustained the inter
csts oil the Institution; and we could moi help
thinking, as we listened to him, and marked
the whole of his temper and department
among us, that the mantle of our beloved and
excellent James had fallen on shoulders well
worthy to wear it.
Bat there was one other aspect in which
the visit of DR.. Levings afforded me peculi
ar pleasure. The Doctor was from a non
slaveholding conference, and | was happy tt
see him mingling with his Southern brethren
just as in former time (; and while witness
ed the cordiality with which he was greeted
and the unreserved ~fraternal intercourse whicI
snbsisted, ! could not help feeling that still
we were one in faith and affection"
We have only TO ask in conclusion, did tn
DR.. demean himself among SHAREHOLDERS a
though he really believes what he urges at III
North why secceders should come back t
The Church, viz. that the Church is now fire.
