The Presidents.

Some one who has taste for search
ing out the curious condolences of
history, has gathered the following
singular facts in connection with the
Presidents of our Republic:
Four of the first seven were from
Virginia. Two of the same name were
from Mass, and the seventh was from
Tennessee. All but one were G6 years
on leaving Office, having served two
terms, and one of them, who had serv-
cd but one term, would have been &C
years of age, at the end of another.
Three of the seven died the 4th day of
July, and two of them on the same
day and year. Two of them were on
the subcommittee of three that draftc d
the Declaration of Independence, and
these two died on the same day and
year, and on the anniversary of the
Declaration of Independence, and just
half century from the day of the Dec
laration. The names of three of the
seven ending in son, yet neither OF
these transmitting his name to son
In respect to the name of all it may be
said, in conclusion, the initials of two
of the seven were the same and OF
two others, that they were the same,
and the initials of still two others,
that thay were the same. The remain
ing one who stands alone in this par.
ticular, stands alone also in the love
and admiration of his countrymen and
the civilized world-Washington
OF the first five only one had son,
and that son was also President.

Our Benny and Christmas.

had told him Christmas morning,
As he sat upon my knee,
Holding fast his little stockings,
Stuffed as full as full could be,
And attentive listening to me,
With a face demure and mild,
That old Santa Claus who filled them,
Did not love naughty child.
"But we'll be good won't we modcr!'
And from off my lap he slid,
Digging deep among the goodies
In his crimson stockings hid;
While turned me to my table,
Where tempting goblet stood,
Brimming high with dainty egg-nog,
Sent me by a neighbor good.
But the kitten, there before me,
With his white paw, nothing 10th,
Sat, by way of entertainment,
Slapping off the shining froth;
And in not the gentlest humor,
At the loss of such treat,
I confess, I rather rudely
Thrust him out into the street.
Then, how Benny's blue eye kindled!
Gathering up the precious store
He had busily been pouring
In his tiny pinafore
With generous look that shamcd me,
Sprang he from the carpet bright,
Showing by his mien indignant,
All bs.by's sense of right.
"Come back. Harney!" called he loudly,
AS he held his apron white,
"You shall have my candy wabbit!"
But the door was fastened tight
So he stood, abashed and silent,
I'm the center of the floor,
With defeated look alternate
Bent on me and on the door.
Then, as by some sudden impulse,
Quickly ran he to the fire,
And while eagerly his bright eyes
Watched the flames go high and higher
In a brave, clear key he shouted,
Like some lordly little elf,
"Santa Klaus, come down de chimney,
Make my moder have herself!'
~ will be good girl, Benny"
Said l, feeling the reproof;
And straightway recalled poor Harvey,
Mewing on the gallery roof.
Soon the anger was forgotten,
Laughter chased away the frown,
And they gamboled meath the live-oaks
Till the dusky night came down.
In my dim fire lighted chamber
Harvey purred beneath my chair,
And nay play worn boy beside me
Knelt to say his evening prayer;
"God bess fader-God bess moder,
God bess sister," then a pause,
And the sweet young lips devoutly
Murmured, God bess Santa kaus!'
He is sleeping--brown and sil1sen
Lie the lashes, long and meek,
Like carressing, ciinging shadows,
On his plump and peachy cheek;
And bend above him, weeping
Thankful tcars-O, Indebted!
For a woman S crown of glory,
For the blessing of a child

Our School Houses.

We are daily boasting of the fine blocks

he Stranger to six churches crowded at
he sound of the bell; we look forward to
he day as not far distant. when our Sem
mary which is rapidly rising from its foun-
lation, shall swarm with juvenile life at
The close of It's SIX hours of scholastic en-
ployment; we see rich farms usurping
the place of unlimited prairie but we see
no efforts in progress TO build those strue-
lures for the accommodation of the people
who wish 10 educate their children on
tue Republican principles in the common
school. lThese are the nurseries of De-
mOcracy, and on these must we rely for
continuance of that intelligence which
renders the American people so superior
to every other. A College or Seminary
will undoubtedly add to the respecto bilty
and the reputation of a place; but 1t is the
common school alone which can equalize
those advantages gained by a thorough
.ys.em Of education.
We commend the matter to the atten-
ion Of our City Fathers, trusting to see
sound measures devised by which our
wants may be supplied, and Mineral
Point relieved from a burden of shame
she has too long, and we fear TOO willing
Is borne.

BsS The Democratic presses of the
State are endeavoring to make capital out
OF the submission of the colored suffrage
question to the people. They charge that
1t Is Republican measure, and their
proof consists IN the fact that the law SUBJ
mlltlng the question was passed by Re-
publican Legislature, and received the
sanction OF a Republican Governor. We
have the same evidence that this question
has been DEMOCRATIC measure; for it
was submitted once before, and the law
was passed by a strongly Democratic Leg
Islature, and approved by Nelson Dewey
whose democracy was never questioned
10y the faithful. 1t is SIMPLIFY question
of extending rights TO a certain class OF
citizens, about which there may be differ
ence Of opinion by members of the same
party; but 1t is certainly proper to let the
people vote upon almost any question of
public policy, and especially this one, as
The right Is expressly guaranteed by the
Constitution. 1t Is certainly good Demo
cratic doctrine to submit questions upon
which there are doubts to the people for
their decision. We are content TO abide
their decision on this or any other ques-
ton; and should consider that a Governor,
belonging to whatever party be might,
would use power in very arbitrary
manner, if he would veto law for the
submission of the question Of suffrage ex-
tension to the people Madison Jour.
PARTIES IN Missouri. Since the re-
cent close contest In Missouri, where OIL
~ last fall Mr.. BUcHANAN had 10000
majority, no lItlie interest is felt in the po-
Htical future of the State. 1t seems more
than probable that there, as elsewhere,
there will henceforth, be but two parties,
the party of FREEDOM and the party of
Slavery. The St. Louis Anzeiger, the
most influential German paper on the
Ms issppi, which heartily supported
RoLLiNs for Governor, says:
We are therefore against ALI Ex-
TESTIoN OF Observation-Disclosures, also a
gainst every attempt to make Kansas a
slave State, be it through incursions from
Missouri or by means of any other force.
The best interests of Missouri require
that Kansas becomes a Free State, 'sand
''that, by and by, and in a lawful manner,
"our Missouri shall likewise belong to
Free Labor"
The ST. Louis "Intelligcncer" intimates
that the party Of progress. which support
ed RoLLIIs at the late election, is being
re-orgauized, and IS bound to prove IRE
sistibie hereafter Success to the Free
State movement in Missouri, as in Kan
