SLIGHTLY PBRsoNAL.-The editor of the
Louisville Democrat lately said, "we live
neighbors to the free States, and see some of
their people every day, and they look and
talk pretty much as we do" To which Prem
tice of the Journal adds: "Well, really, if
the people of the free States look pretty much
as you do, we cannot wonder that large
portion of the South is in favor of dissolving
all connection with such an ugly race. We
don't know but we shall have to go for disso-
luton ourselves"

A QUESTION OF LoNR1TuDE.-A curious
question of fact has arisen in N. York in the
matter of the McLoskey estate. The testator,
who died in Paris, left legacy of $4,000 to
his neice, living in Dubuque, Iowa. 1t turns
out TINT both uncle and niece, testator and
legatee, died on the same day if she died
first, the Legacy ceases; if he died first, it
goes to her heirs. The EUening Post says 1t
looks now as if the question of priority of
death must be decided by longitude Boston

BORDER RUFFIANIsM UNPRoFITABLE. -
The Missouri Democrat estimates that the
raids in Kanzas cost western Missouri two
millions and half, at the least A leading
merchant at Independence says that he could
not have continued in business six months
longer if the border warfare had not termin-
ated as it did. The demands of the rufian
leaders were more imperious, and more dam
gerous to be refused. than those of any des-
pot in Europe. A captain would come in and
demand barrel of sugar, quantity of meat
or clothing, or anything which one might
have. If it was refused, the person was stig-
matised as id abolitionist," and he be-
comes at once a marked man, and his store
and goods common plumber. The merchants,
although in favor OF the war when 1t begun,
were obliged to oppose its continuance, in or
der to save themselves from bankruptcy and
ruin. And the revulsion of feeling has been
so great that in some of the worst border ruff.
fan counties large vote was given for the
emancipation candidate for governor.

MALICIOUS MIsoHIEF.-It is with regret that
we perceive that the mischievous spirit which
was SO long rampant in our neighboring town of
Millbury but which we hoped had received per-
manent quietus, under the operation of the moral
influences which pervade the great mass of the
people of that place, is again at work. 1t will be
seenby an advertisement in this paper, that
number of valuable fruit trees, belonging to cit
izen Of that town, have recently been destroyed,
by some luekless scapegrace, as yet undiscovered,
and that 100 dollars reward is offered for proof
which shall bring him-or them, as the case may
be-to justice. We cannot doubt that the peo-
pie of Millbury will do whatever they can 10 check
in the bud this new manifestation, and to bring to
punishment those who have SO little regard to
the rights Of their neighbours and to the good or
der and good name of their place of abode.
