Hear q National,

the Kansas City Enterprise thus speaks
Of the recent change in the Squatter Sove-
reign;
"We received tho Sguatter Sovereign Of
last week, and opened 1t with our usual ex-
pectation Of finding something racy about
yankees" ect., when, to our blank amaze
ment, we saw the ominous words FREE
STATE" in two-line capitals over the edi-
torial head, and "R. Nj. McBratney and s..
G. Pomeroy, proprietors" We involuntari-
ly recalled the oft repeated maledioton of
holy writ upon "Jereboam, the son of Nebat,
who made Israel to sin''-sat down in the
full flow of "damning Indignation" to give
'em particular h fits, but like the old fell
low who had his ashes spilled out at the
carts tail, we give it up-'we could not do
Justice to the subject This terrible Kan
sas war reminds us of the old couplet--
"The King of France, with forty thousand men
Marched up the hill, and then marched down
again."
Where now is all the blood and thunder
of the indoinitable, incorruptible, unpur-
chasable Squatter! We didn't believe the
story that Lane and Stringfellow had slept
together, but we can't resist this "damning
evidence" We always heard Lanes Sc
ductive powers wonderfully enlarged upon,
and all dimity warned to beware of him,
but this evidence of his prowess-thas even
the fierce border rufian had to yield his dal-
liance-is proof beyond the possibility oI
doubling" On! for the secrets of those
''incestuous sheets"-the "adventures of @
French bedstead' would be tame in com.
parison. Sic transit gloria Squatterandt.

Clark and Rollins on st. Louis.

A correspondent of the "Intelligencer,"
writing from Keytesville, after having
heard Gen. Clark and Maj. Rollins speak
winds up as follOws:-
In regard to St. Louis, he spoke in bill
eral and statesman-like way. He said it is
the great commercial metropolis not only of
our avn State, but of the Mississippi Val
ley, and that it should be the pride of every
Missourian to build it up to increase its
population, and TO enlarge its trade; this,
he continued, was manileslly to our inter-
sets. and not to be encouraging feelings of
hatred and i'll will against the city, because
some of its inhabitants happened 10 differ
with us upon the great "Goose" question.
We could not help contrasting these lib.
eral views with the views of Gen. John b.
Clark, the Anti. Benton candidate for Con-
gress, (once leading Know Nothing
WIN had spoken in this place a few days
before.
The General did not want Freesoil, Alb
clifton, or Emancipation votes-he could de-
derstood him, to term the city as the
"Counfy-S Sedt OF HeA.
The General is too much of fire. eater to
talk of such doubtful regions, where such
political sentiments as he entertains, will
send him as an explorer, after the August
election.
The General has tried all kinds Of poll.

A Return to the Fig Leaf Fashion.

An Irish paper contains the following:
The subject of the costume of the ancient
Britons has been asserted that they were ma
ked. Those who oppose this view adduce
as reasons, the GOODNESS aud the varible ma
ture of the climate. The question has been
set at rest by an experiment recently made
on child at St. Anne's Barney, near Cork.
The child is fourteen months old, and is the
son of Mr. f., who determined TO ascer-
tain what the human frame would bear
The child is perfectly naked night and day.
He sleeps without any covering, in a room
with the thermometer at SO degrees; from
this he goes into a bath at llS degrees-he
sometimes goes TO aleep in the bath. He
is perfectly Indifferent to heat or cold; he is
lively, active, cheerful and intelligent. His
appearance constantly reminds the observer
of the best efforts of our best painters and
sculptors Therein is the beau ideal! He
is the reality. His simple, graceful, natu-
raj, easy and ever-vostures are charming.
He arrests the attention and admiration Of
all who see him. The peculiar character Of
his skin is very striking; it is exqusitely
healthy and beautiful. 1t may be compared
to the sun shining through painted win
dow. During the progress Of the expert
ment he has cut three teeth without mani
Testing any of the disagereeable symptoms
usual to children in that condition. He ap-
pears TO be quite insensible to pain. Occa-
siOnally he gets an ugly fall bu: not sound
escapes from his lips.
