RACES committed in that Territory upon
Free State settlers. He left this city a
strong Democrat he is now strong Re-
publican. 1t is worthy of note that every
man who visited Kansas from the North -
no matter what his politics were before
is now strong Republican. This single
fact is worth more than the vaporings OF
all the politicians in the land, who en-
deavor to make light of the Kansas
difficulties. If something extraordinary
had not occurred in that Territory, il
the most diabolical outrages had not
been committed. certainly every man
who went there Democrat, would not
have become a Republican. Matters
must have been fully as bad as repre-
sonted, otherwise some few individuals,
at least, would have adhered TO their
political faith.

The United States Iuebriate Asylum.
DR.. J. Edward Tanner, of New York

vance the interests of this prof .cted in

ing TO locate or build. DR.. Tanners
present object is to procure subscriptions,
payable whenever the $4,000 is raised
to the Trustees. The first Board of Di.
rectors, as named in the char er, are such
men as Gov. Hunt, A. G. Phelps, E. B.
Morgan, and others, who take warm in
terest in the scheme. Already s28, 200
have been subscribed, almost entirely in
sums Of $40. Among the names are
those of 700 physicians, who thus endorse
the medical character Of the plan.
1t getting to be pretty generally un

a disease depending upon hereditary OF
constitutional causes. To some ex ent il

called by students of insanity, oinomania,
or the mania for drink, have already been

petite is entirely destroyed by judicious
management. The demand for an in
stitution devoted to such cases is already
great. Hundreds of iuebriates are them.
selves anxious to secure its benefits, and
we earnestly hope that DR.. Tanner may
succeed in his philanthropic project. Buf-
falo should furnish FIVE hundred subscri,
bers, if it gives with as much liberality as
many smaller places have done. The in.

zens may rest assured that their charities
will be judiciously expended.-Bu6ialt

from twenty thousand-we have not yet
seen the exact figures. Our vote is few
hundred greater than that Of the Bucha-
neers and Fillmourners combined. Last
year it was less. The Republican party
Of Ohio is now compact. well-knit or
ganization, Independent of all other par
ties and disconnected from factions. So
long as it pursues straightforward,
honest course, maintaining its name and
principles, selecting none but good men
for Office. looking only to the public
good. and spurning all treacherous alli-
ances, its ascendency will remain unsha-
ken. The Republican Party of Ohio
truly occupies proud position. Howev-
er other States may have disappointed
our hopes, the flag of freedom waves tri-
umphantly over the Buckeye State.

Look around, and you will see that all OF
those nen who have unflinchingly and
perseveringly advertised by scores of
thousands of dollars, have grown i'm
mensely wealthy, or have at least receiv-
ed wealth which would have made them
wealthy if husbanded. But though all
advertisng-even that of the most COM
mon place nature-is sure to pay, it is
none the less true that some men have
far more genius in the art than others
Every man who follows it for many years
picks up many ideas as he goes along,
and there are very few cases indeed in
which man does not experience finally
that it is an absolutely essential part oi
his business. Advertisements are the
milestoncs and hand-posts along the road
of business life. People might inquire
their way. and might find their destina.
tion by the bearings of the compass; but
for all purposes of directness, there is
nothing like the guide post, for him who
has never gone over the ground before
Even ifhe travels by railroad, lie still re.

There is an old fable which we have
heard cited as affording satirical ilustra.
ton of much of the spirit which inspires
modern advertising--that enterprising
genius "who would if possible. stick NJ
his placards on the walls of Paradise, >
and who would nail card, with "Try
Snook's Best Teas" to gallows, that i
might be read by all coming to the execu
ton. The fable to which we allude i.
that of the vote taken among the inhabit
ants of beleagued city, as the best pos
sible means of defending it. The WOO
dealers proposed, Of course, having th.
walls defended with wool sacks, and eacl
dealer in turn proposed his own wares
Finally the turn came of an honest dealer
in hides, who with great seriousness ex
claimed, "Gentlemen may talk as they
please, but after all there's nothing lk'
leather" And after all the leather mar
was right. for by referring to Roman An
tiquities it will be found that in the day:
when the fable in question was invented
raw hides. hung loosly. were really the
best defence against both Greek fire and
battering rams. Thus it is with most o
the subjects of modern advertising. We
laugh at the manner in which the ware,
are puffed-sometimes in most mala
propos manner-but we are, after all, no
unfrequently compelled to admit that tht
advertisement tells the truth, and tha

Horrible Crueity--Child Burnt to Death.
The Lockport Journal says !: A trage-
dy took place in this village on Tuesday,
exhibiting such revolving cruelty as to be
almost incredible. A little boy. five years
Of age. belonging to a Mrs. Story, on
Washburn- street, was roasted alive by a
iend in human shape, named Elizabeth
Craig. white woman, whose husband is
anegro. The evidence elected before the
coroner's jury shows that the victim was
left with a smaller child by its mother,
when Elizabeth Craig, who lived in anoth-
er portion of the house, took the oppor-
tunity and entered the apartment, and
proceeded to the execution OF the deed
which. it has been shown, she had previ.
ously threatened. With horrid impreca
tons of damn you, damn you" the chaa
acas held on the fire by its tormentor, unti2 its
legs and 6oaceis acere burnt to a cinder, then
with satanic revenge. the body of the
child was reversed by the murderess, unit
its back aoas roastedtoa a crisp.
The little sufferer was found in corner
of the room, and fingered on in an uucun
scious state until yesterday, Thursday
morning, when he showed return o
consciousness, and was asked by its moth
er. for the first time, "How came YOU
to burn yourself ?" answered, Elizabeth
burnt me-" and then, as if recalling the
horrors of the awful scene which were
pictured on its imagination, exclaimed
Damn you, damn you p evidently ir
imitation Of the imprecations used by its
tcrmentor. Death soon put an end to the
sufferings OF Il child.
The woman was arrested. She tells
different and conflicting stories in regard
to the transaction. She is said to be &
desperate character, and came to this
place from some of the eastern ciies.-
The cause which led her to the perpetra
ton of this diabolical murder do S no
appear; but it was probably owing to q

The Lawrence correspondent of the

William R. Bowles, one of the Free
State prisoners at Lecompton. died there
on Sunday morning about three o'clock.
He died from neglect and abuse
from the wretched manner in which he
has been compelled to live since he be-
came a prisoner. He had been unwell
less than three days, and had no med
ical advice in his sickness, and no
change in his treatment. A number OF
the prisoners are unwell now, and il
they are kept much longer in their
present wretched quarters, fatal results
to some Of them may be expected.
The deceased was from St. Charlie.

and came into the Territory on the 7th
of August last. He was at the battle
of Franklin, and fought with the Free
State men in all the engagements since
that time.
