The following is specimen of the free
ami easy style with which Rollins, the
opposition candidate for Governor III Mis-
soari, has been addressing the people OF
that State. There is a genuine sparkle
of humor and genius in his speeches that
show him to be no ordinary man; ana al
though he may be beaten now, he Will be
heard from again. The extract is IN the
best VEN Of Western stumPspeaking:-
All have to say is this, if you shout
elect me Governor, [ think the adminislra-
ton of the State and the City Govern
ment, under friend Winner, will 90 on har-
moniously and swimmingy together. |
will avail myself of his services in advan-
cling the interests of the State. IT l
should be your Governor, l will make you
a most clever and hospitable gentleman.
At my home you can find my wife and
children; but not so with Stewart. He
is an old bachelor-his heart is as hard as
a flint. Laughter. He has never been
lHOVtu ~ ScAl0Iouo III puioCo " 0hS ihh"
ence Of woman's charms; and in visiting
him you will find home cherries and
desolate, forlorn enough to damp the ar
dor of generous heart. He is not the
proper man for you, Lock into the bach
elorss den Iroars Of laughter and see II
you like it. except the present company
if there be any bachelors in it.
1t is true that he said, the other day,
that he had been trying to change his con-
dition for twelve long years, and had fail
ed. Laughter. Ii that is true, it is the
most solid argument against him, because
you know, all of you, that among the stli-
king characteristics between the two sexes,
the most prominent is the keen perception
and the keen insight into the human char
acter which women have; and it is be-
cause the women, knowing at a glance
laughter that the visibility Of the
meeting was here SO great that it buried
the words of the Major entirely lit is the
condemnation of the female sex resting
upon his head, and you cannot, if you
would, vote for him.

gives the following characteristics of a
good horse: 1. His eyes, even when seen
in the stable, are perfectly clear and trans
parent. and the pupils or apples of the
eyes are alike in color and size. 2. On
being nipped in the gullet, he will utter a
sound like that from bellows. Ii, On the
contrary, he should give vent to a dry,
husky, short cough, beware of him. His
wind is unsound. 3. His legs arc smooth
and .'cIean." If you find lunches or putfs
or difference in size, though he may not
be lame, disease turks there. 4. If b o d
aud full between the eyes, he is suscepti-
bic to almost anything. 5. If some
white or parti-colored, he is docile and gen
