loose from her fastenings and started up the
river faster than she ever had run under a
| full head Of steam. The pilot not being at
the helm she soon brought up on a sandbar
at the mouth Of the slough in an almost
wrecked condition. A friend who h0ppe ned
to take refuge on her during the storm des-
'cribes the scene as terrific. Neither shore
was visible, while with main strength each
person preserved himself by clinging to
some portion OF the boat.
In the country around us much damage
is done to the crops. Wheat, now gener-
ally in shocks, being scattrcd over the fields
and corn blown down A few days Of wet
weather would prove very detrimental to
the Meatin its present exposed condition.
From other quarters We have not heard Of
the effects Of the storm, but presume it to
have been most severe in this immediate vi
cinity. Though we live long and have to
WELD the gray goose quill for liylihood to
our latest day, may we never again have to
chronicle SO much injury to the bodies and
destruction to the property, Of our fellow
citizens

BENEFITS OF ADsERTIslNG.-Tho who
cavil at the idea of the immense advantages
attending advertising, may in this progres.
sive age be ranked as old iogies
and to such we commend the following Incl
dent:
An old gentleman sat cozily befor the
fire one evening last winter listening tt
his boys read the Gazette, until at last the.
came to that department possessing mos
interest, although most frequently skip
ped"-the advertisements. Here they read
off farm for sale, with a description OF I'M
provements and I'll, price 81 500, attached.
1t was suggested that the old gentleman
Immediately make application for it.
Without delay he did 50, complied with the
terms, became proprietor and speedily ex-
changed his log cabin for two story bric';
house. Since that time be has been offered
$4,000 for the property! Had he not been a
subscriber TO the Gazette, or have failed to
read the advertisements, he would still have
been tenant of his old cabin and OF farm
which has not since appreciated in value.

Singular Rencontre.

Last week very large cat, the property Of
Mr.. w. H. Hollis of this place, took his po-
siton near boardpile, attentively watching
for rat, the place being infested with them.
Presently the warm sun had SO soothing an
influence upon Tom that he went to SLEEPS
thus ne glectipg his duty, and exposing him
self to danger. In few moments large
rat slipped silly from under the board pile
made descent upon Tom, and got Z firm
hold of his jaw. Then regular battle en-
sued. Sometimes Tom would get the mas
terry; then the rat catching, him by the leg;
or fairly Oh the side seemed to declare wc-
tory for himself. After several very severe
wounds, Tom catching the rat by the neck,
proved the victory bearing him off from the
field ofconflict, not, however, without carry
ing with him many bloody marks OF the
strength and prowess Of his adversary
II is singular fact for rat to attack his
common enemy in abroad day light isn't
it.--Fairfeld Eed9er

THE ADMISSION OF UTAH.

The ground then Of objection could be very ins
telligible and legitimate P0lyg6my is at ,ejM
manners irhirh Unde}ie oil human hupptitss dhfso-
cidl refinement. Is there provision for protection
sganst such an evil as this Must we admit into
our midst II social organization tlnt would bring
with it q cancer--a dangerous excrcscence that
would be Mt liberty to eat into the vtas OF all that
we as n nation deem sacred and valuable? The
cry, that if the Mormons be refused admitance on
this account. it would be striking at the root Of re-
lgious freedom, is ct premely ridiculous. Utah
cannot come into this confediacy with polygamy
legal institution. Squattcr su,creighty, it has
been furcibly said. may affirm the right of people
of Il territory to determine their own institutions.
but there Is a sovereignty dLore tie SorereigRfy Of

american p'0pic Utah cannot approach the hr-
dal altar of this Union covered with the scars and
polluted with the poison of foul disease. She
must rurgc herself and come with the bloom of
virgin innocence and purity. 1t is to be regretted
that Utah was admitted as Territory, yet Congress
has not parted trM the right Of prescribing cOndi-
tonS Of admission STATE, Lpoking 10 the interests
and weI-jciHg IF Tie U,ioa. And it is to be hoped
and believed, that those conditions will be such as
to require Utah to dispense with her odous institu-
ton of polygamy. That Mormonism can be suf-
tered to exist and grow seperate and independent
Government within the territory Of the Republic,
is an impossbty, and of course cannot lie enter

SENSIBLE AND TRUE.

A late New York Tribune talks sensibly and
truly in reply to a correspondent, who proposes the
purchasing out of slavery by the General Govern
ment. 1t says
1--WE think TIE South do,,I ,rdm 10 get rid q
Sarery. individuals here and there may wish II
ended, but the Shareholders don't agree with them
no more do the men and women living IN sumptu
Gus idleness on the proceeds OF Slave LABOR n'
matter whether hired out worked upon Cottor
and Sugar estates We often hear OF this or tina
one doploring the existence of Slavery who neve
lifted finger to hasten its downfall, and who woul'
stop his iavorite journal if it said aught declsive
against slayeholding. We know that the grea
body Observation-Disclosures do not wish Slavery abol
ished, any more than sinners in general wish to b.
saved from their sins; if there will, there
would soon be found II way. Nor do we think the
majority of our politicians, merchant princes, cot
ton brokers, &c, earnestly desire the Abolition oi
Slavery. They may cheat their consciences by say
ing they do but If so, their acts give the lie to their
professions.
We therefore, believe the most important thing
to be done at present is to make people, North
and Sorh, Teali.e that .SarerY is wroH9 and ijlni-
0ts aRJ so earnestly desire its extinction. If that
were accomplished, all else that ought to be soon
would be. The moral revolution will insure the
physical and legal.
When our People shall have become realty hos
tile to Slavery, there will be no need Of exporting
the emnncipated negroes. They will all be needed
here, and will be a more healthy, cheerful tracta-
Bile body Of laborers than the planters can find be-
side. Now they are good for nothing because
they have no rights, no social position, no hopes,
no friends. Ii is the interest Of the shareholders
to have free negroes appear the most vicious, idle,
inefficient, miserable Of Gods creatures and they
are treated accordingly. Let Slavery BE abolished
and all this would mend Even now, in defiance
Of the pro-Slavery sentiment animating the more
influential classes at the North, the Free Blacks

lorper than the states Of Ohio and New Jersey
The climate corresponds with that Of East Tennes-
see of the finest climates in the world and the
,oil is like that of Southern Kansas equally fertile
md better supplied with wood and water. The
ountry is at present outside of any territorial or
ranization and has been allotted by succession
# treaties to the Cherokee, Creek Choctaw, Chick
asaw and Seminole Indians, who number about
sixty thousand souls.
These Indians are all Shareholders. 4 few years
since, the Greeks held about four hundred slaves
and the entire negro population Of the five tribes
is estimated at about two thousand.
The Choctaws and Cherokecs call all men aboli-
tonists who teach their slaves to read or write,
and have forbidden the missionaries from perpe-
rating any such misdemeanors within their bor-
ders This ordinance, as our readers will rcmcm-
ber the sub ect Of n very Important discussion
at a recent session Of the American Board Of For
eign Missions of the Presbyterian Church. 1t
was then remarked by one of the speakers, that
the Chociaw pro-slavely ordinance was probably
dictated by white men as part and parcel oi ro-
litica design to nurse another slave state into exls-
tence on the upper waters of the Red river
1t will be observed that the 18th section of this
bill provides that no white people shall settle in
either of the territories without the consent Of the
Legislature Of the proper territory, and in pursu-
ance of laws by it enacted And by section ~, as
soon as they number sufficient persons to send Il
representative to Congress, they shall he admitted
as Il state Here is Il shrcwd provision ngains
breaking upon the rock upon which Nebraska anC
Kansas split. Senator johnson does not meal
that Ncosho shall be wrested from the SHAREHOLDERS
by eastern cmigrants, and hence this provision tha
immigration shall be subject to the laws Of th
local legislatures, all devoted to the interests 0
slavery.
The bill is made the special order for the 1911
instant the second week after the opening of Con
grcss, in order that no time may lie lost in estab

Wo ba, ip,nt t, 40
features of this bill which invite remark, but We
hasten to submit the prominent features Of scbem,
which is well calculated to alarm those who think
i with us, that the prosperity and honor Of this
country depends upon the confinement of SLAYER!

The person named in this certificate is colored
man, (tho father of the Doctor,l who came to this
country more than fifty years ago, and has ever
since resided in the city of New York. 1t appears
that Charles DeGrasse properly and legally
naturalized. For more than fifty years he has
regularly voted in the elections of United States
and State officers. This is the only instance
know of where a colored alien has received GER
tifcate of naturalization under our laws | sup
