.aUOid Cant Phrases.


We have been told of laughable incl
dent that is said to have really happened
in our town not many days since. Not a
month, ago when freights from St. Louis
were low in consequence of the high stage of
water in the Missouri river, an old man,
who does not live thousand miles from
our Office, wrote to merchant of st. Louis,
of whom he usually purchases his stores
for lot of flour, adding by way of urging
its prompt shipment that he wanted it the
worst kind" The -four was at once
brought, which on its reception here was
found full of weevil, sour and musty-of
the ,corst kind" This incident serves
to show writer's who are not particular as
to the elegance of their diction, or per-
spicuity of style, the improperly of using
cant phrases in business letters. Persons
ordering goods of merchants at distance
cannot be too partieularIn wording their
orders. Their language should be so
clear and correct as to be only susceptible
of one construction. Business men as a
matter of course read their letters hurried
ly, and are liable to misconstTue their par-
port, unless the letter is written plainly
and pointedly. To write clearly and In
,elhgibly, ii is absolutely necessary to dis
use all can't phrases.
ALL MIsTAKE, NEIeHBoR.-1n the
last number of the Herald of Freedom
an incendiary, reasonable Abolition sheet,
published at Lawrence, its editor, George
w. Brown, in cautioning his Eastern ex-
changes against eonfounding the title Of
I his paper with that of the Kansas Herald,
tells the public that the latter paper is edi-
ted by renegade Northerner. This
bit of Information is unqualifediy FALSE,
and we believe that Brown kae,c it to be
such when he ipdited it.. We, the editor
of this paper, are a Virginian by birth,
education and associations, and never re-
sided in Northern State. A true South
erner in sentiment. and an uncompromi-
sing advocate of Southern Institutions are
we. Coming from the South, we adept the
patriotic aottc OF the gallant Decatur, as
ours, g My coantry, may she b. right
but right OF wrong, my country.

The .assertio,. FalstNed.

Since the brutal murder of Malcolm
Clark by the cowardly fend MsCrea, the
Abolition papers Of the North, and es-a
pecially the Lawrence press. have been
necessarily crying out that MsClea shot
in self-defence. We have always bluntly1
and emphatically denied the correctness Of
this statement, which the Kansas Tribune
would fain make the world believe. We
have from the first pronounced itinfamous-
ly false, and have proved that the asser-
ton was in no wise substantiated. by the
circumstances attending the murder of
Clark. The evidence adduced before
Judge Lecompte atthe late trial of M'Crea
on a writ of habeas corpus, which we
published in our last issue, shows plainly
that the murder of Clark was planned and
premeditated by M'Crea. Had M'Crea4
shot Clark in self-defence, as alleged by
the Philadelphia lawyer Speer of the
Tribune, why does not the testimony of the
witnesses who were present on the occa-
sion serve to show it. The evidence
against M'Crea was so strong that Judge
Lecompte very properly refused to admit
him to bail. Had the evidence in the case
gone to show that the killing of Clark
was in self-defence, Judge Lecompte could
not have remanded the prisoner back into
custody. The decision of Judge Lecompte
in the case, completely falsifies this Abo-
lition manifesto, and corroborates ours in
every material point. Had M'Crea shot
Clark in self-defence his Imprisonment
would be illegal, and if his imprisonment
was illegal, the writ of habeas corpus
would have procured his personal liberty

In such cases. the nation parts with a por-
ton of its liberty for a time, in order, as it
is presumed to preserve the whole forever.
