Mr. Editor, have you need of more edo

send up your ORDERS think we can supply
you.
The last question discussed before the
Debating Society: whether the Indian
or African has the greater cause to complain
of the white man !' was decided in favor of
the African.
We were very near having another serious
affair the other evening. A young girl from
Pennsylvania, who has been residing in this
n,ighborhood short time, called at one of
our stores and purchased some laudcnum
after she left few minutes. the storckccpcr
followed fearing she might have evil designs
upon herself and after some persuasion OBJ
tanned 1t, before she took any of it. Her
subsequent statement fully establish the fact
that she intended to take it for the purpose of
putting all end to her life. Through kind
attentions and pcrsuasions learn she has
been prevailed on to abandon the project, and
| merely refer to it to put druggists and
sorekeerers on their guard in future. as all
poisons should be sold with great caution.

VINO is ACCOUNTABLE FOR TIE DELAY IN
ORGANIZING !-This question is satisfactorily
answered by the letter of Mr.. Smith of Ala
bama, to his constituents. Read the follow
ing extract:
"On Monday the 2lSt instant. the honora.
lie gentleman from Virginia (NIr Carlilc)
offered a resolution that the honorable Viii.
liam Smith. Representative in Congress
from Virginia, should be declared Speaker OF
the House of Representatives. Upon that res
olution vote was taken, and Mr.. Smith re-
cclvtd forty.stvcn votts-amongSt which
was, | believe, every member of the National
American party present except one. Here is
thc vote for Mr.. Smith:
Icas-Ncssrs. Borne, Bowr. Broom, John
p. Campbell, Garlic. W. X. W. Colb. Cox.
Cullen, DordeH. Ethcfidgc. Eustis. Evans,
F""lhntr. Foster, Henry NJ. Fuller j. Morri-
son Harris, Heybcrt. Hoffman. Kennel, Lake,
lindley. Alex, X. Marshall, Humphrey Mar
shall. MclIicn. McQ"een, Mlison, Paine,
Qw'mdn. Readc, Ready, Richardson, Rust.
Sdrooe, VIM. r. Smith, &emGrt, Swopc Tat
hoi, Taylor. Trippc, Underwood, Walk, Walk
or. Uwncr, Hukms, Whitney, John Y.
Hrieht and Zollcofcr-47.
Those italicis,d are among the immortal
seventy four (as the Union calls thcm) who
have voted for Mr.. Richardson throughout
the hallotings. OF the scvcnty.four Mr..
Smith received but nineteen votes; fo,ty.fivc
Richardson mon voted against Mr.. Smith
Forty-scycn and forty-ive make nncty-two
votes. The whole vote pollcd was one hun
dr'd and seventy eight, of which ninety
wonld have been majority of all the votes
given. So if the Richardson men had voted
for Mr.. Smith he would have been elected
Speaker with two votes to spare, and the pro
tlact.d and painful controversy would lave
hecn brought to a close by placing in the
chair an old Democrat. n good Nebraska man
and one of the "a who have risidly adhered
10 Mr.. Richardson"
