Our spiritualised and border. ruiiian snnihi-
latug neighbor Of the Tunes dues Us the
honor TO ask Us this question, aud commits
the discourtesy Of answering it himself. We
must attribute this however to the absent
mind OF the editor he has been atfi icted that
way ever since he volunteered to 20 to Ksnsas,
to fight for the Free State cause, but by mis-
take, got on the wrong boat. and came to st.
Paul, What became OF that musket he prom
isei to " shoulder We cant say. Probably
the spirits can enlighten u.s.
We will be most happy to give the sdi.or Of
the Tmss the information be desires OF our
convenience. but to-day We are too crowded
with other matters. We will do 90 the more
readily, because We begin to have some faint
hopes Of NEwsoS's conversion to sound priH-
ciples, since he has become snch . great student
in CLAWS writings. Our prayers will attend
you TtsorHs. in every JEALOUS effort u get out
Of that vile Abolition and Disunion party with
which your political fortunes are Of present
