The Hutchinsons Again.

The Hut Crimson Brothers will give
another of their highly entertaining Con
certs on Monday Evening next, January
4th, at Odd Fellows Hall, commencing
at half-past seven. With the accom-
panying instrumental music, the Hutch
isons make more real, enjoyable music
than any other company we ever heard
sing. They hold a perfect spell over
their audience, swaying them at will
now melting them to tears, and anon
setting them into commissions of laugh
ter, and yet it is all done without appar-
ent effort, and in the most natural way.
No one who can appreciate music, should
fail TO 90 and hear them. Il only costs
% cents.
Their Concert on Thursday evening
last, was not as fully attended as it would
haze been, had it not been Christmas
eve, but still they had a very respecta-
bic audience. Those who were present
then, we know will want to hear them
again.

Ths Y. M. L. al. Association.

Odd Fellows Hall was again well filed
on Saturday evening last, when Mr.
SAKE. read his Poem, "Y ankee Land, ;"
before the Young Mems Literary &
Library Association. Mr.. SAKE hardly
does justiae TO his own productions, in
their recitation. His style of delivery
is rather dull and wanting in the flash &
sprightliness that characterize his wri-
tings. Perhaps,this is more marked from
the contrast. 1t is not often that the
witty facetious and sprightly writer and
the eloquent ready and entertaining
speaker are united in the same person.
They are very different talents, and one
may exist entirely independent of the
other.
The next lecture before the Associa-
ton viii be delivered in Odd Fellows
Hall on Thursday Eye'g. Jan. eth by
Rev. J. c. Richmond of Milwaukee,
Subject, Manners and Customs of the
Turks.
Mr. Richmond has travelled extensive.
ly in Turkey, and other portions of Eu-
rope and the East, and intersperses his
lectures with many amusing anecdotes
of his personal adventures. Mr. r. is
a first rate speaker and we can assure
readers who listen to him, rare ''feast

Oe%-S
w AsHINGToN, Dec. %.
Among the documents presented to
the Senate, is Secretary Cass' letter to
Gen. Denver.
After referring to the cause ofthe dis
missal of Acting Governor Stanton, in
convening the Legislature, he says:
''From these views you will readily un-
derstand what the President regards as
the chief duty which Gevolves upon you,
as Stanton's successor This duty is to
preserve the peace of Kansas. Every
person entitled to vote on the Constitu-
zion, ought to have safe access to the
polls, and to be free from all restraints
whatever in the exercise of the elective
franchise"
If the civil power is found insufficient
for this purpose, troops of the United
States should be employed in the aid of
it, and it may be n wise preeaution to
have them stationed in advance within
reach ofthose places where, in yourjudg-
ment, their services are likely to be re-
quired. 1t IS earnestly hoped that the
use of the military power may be wholly
avoided. Violence is always less likely
TO occur when the means are known to
he athand for its prompt suppression.
Should the military power become alb
solutely necessary to keep the peace,
YOU viii find full instructions with ref
lerence to the proper mode of employing
it, in my communication to Governor
Walker. The Territorial Legislature
was doubtless convened ON the 18th
inst, and while it remains in session, It's
members are entitled to be secure and
free in their deliberations. It's rightful
action must also be respected.
Should it authorize an election by the
people for any purpose, this election
should be held without interruption, no
less than those authorized by the Con-
vention.
While the qeace of this Territory is
preserved. and the freedom of election is
secured, there need be no fear of disas-
trous consequences.
The public journals contain reports of
an intended movement by portion of
the residents OF Kansas to organize 4
revolutionary government under the To
peka Constitution. 1t is hardly proba-
BILE that this report can be well founded;
bat should the attempt be made and
| leadto practical collision with the Ter
ritorial authorities, the authority of the
government must necessarily be main
tanned; and from whatever quarter it is
attempted to interfere by violence with
the election authorized by the Con,
stitutional Convention. or which may be
/ authorized by the Legislature, the at.
tempt must be resisted, and the security
ofthe elections maintained by your firm
ness and discretion, to give effect tG
these instructions.
tbs vitality important that the people
of Kansas, should have the full determi
nation of the question now before them
for decision.
1t is important also, that in securing
TO them the protection to whic. they ar,
entitled, great care should be taken no
Ito organize any Illegal authority.
| No action of the Territorial Legisla
lture about to meet, can interpose Will
the elections of the 2lst of December
: and the 26th of January, in the mod
, and manners prescribed by the Consti
tutional Convention.

"THE TAIL EHD."-An amusing circum
stance occurred last week in the Justice Court
at Boston, Justice Gushing on the Bench
A plaintiff appeared to recover grindstone,
and being called to the witness stand, deposed
as follows:"I called on the defendant for the
stone, bat he refused me, telling me that be-.
fore could get it | must try the tail end of
the law, and at once brought the matter be-
fore your Honor" The Court looked stern
and threatening, spectators snickered, embryo
lawyers laughed behind delicate hankerchieis,
grim officers smiled, and the witness sat
down astonished.

A CANARp.-The last hoax of the season
is one which some farceur has just played
off in n Paris newspaper.
The journal gruvely publishes a letter
from the south of France, recounting how n
young musician OF wonderful power had just
arrived from the United States. Somehow
the United States always figures in tales OF
the "extraordinary' The "instrument" mp.
on which the genius played, according to the
Paris correspondent, was n cage Of ducks Of
various sizes and descriptions. An electric
wire was attached to each gosln, and the
music Was produced by battery, operated
upon in such n manner IA to make the ducks
Qunck forth the notes. The letter closed
with the announcement that, on the previous
night, the ducks had broken out of their cage,
attacked eccentric proprietor in his bed, and
eat him up alive! This ridiculous story is
now going The rounds Of the French press.
1t certainly beats the railroads and reyolyers
in the Georgia affair quite hollow

BAprlzING.-The Warrenton Wing says:
On Sunday evening last, thirty two persons
were baptised in Cedar Run, near Warrenton,
BY the Rev. Cumberland George. The ordi.
nance was performed in the midst of a large
number of persons from the town and coun.
try, who had assembled to witness the cere.
monies. A large majority of those immersed
have lately made n profession of religion ut
the Baptist Church in this place. Since the
commencement of the revival nearly forty
white souls have been converted.

A SENSIBLE REcEIpT.-For low spirits we
recomend clear conscience, fresh mir, lots
of exersse, and taste for music. sand it
came TO pass when the evil spirit was upon
Saul, that David took harp and played with
his hand, so Saul was refreshed. and was well,
and the evil spirit departed from him." In
treating diseases of the mind music is not
sufficiently valued. In raising the heart
above despair, an old violin is worth four doc.
tors and two apothccary stores. Try it, ye
gloomy, self condemning sants--lt will give
beautiful glow to your stagnant blood.

CUTTING THE THRoATs OF WoMsN.-The
following is from the Dctroi, Advertiser. All
honorable men, we nre confident will agree
with us that such cases MS the one here re-
corded should not only inflame the indignn-
ton but excite the deepest seorn of mankind
and wonanknd.
Mrs. Perkins, lady who has occupied the
position of postmistress, at Baraboo in Wis
consin, has been guotined by the rotary
knife, which is now in operation at Washing
ton, and her place given to n brawling pot
house politician. The letters on file applying
for this change have been examined by the
Hon. &. c. Washburne, to find out what were
the ciuses of the Iady's removal. and one of
the letters, on the part Of Mrs Perkins, was
found to be from Democrat high in office IN
the State, who said that he had been applied
to to aid in procuring her removal. That he
had made inquiry and was satisfied that her
removal was not desired by nny honorable
man; that three of the parties who applied for
his influence were ut the time so drunk as to
be little better than BEASTS, and two others
were in but it'll, less beasily condtion that
Mrs p. was the widow of n Democratic elec
tor in the State of New York in 1874: that
she never inierfrred in politics, but attended
strictly to her duties, and that she depended
in great degree upon the Office for the sup
port of herself and her children. Also n
manly letter from Hon. Daniel Wells, ir.,
stated that he had made inquiry into the case,
and was satisfied that the interest or honor
of the Government would not be promoted
by the change. Also rrmonstrancr signed
by over two hundred citizens Of Baraboo
against any change, and large number OF
at6davits, many of which are recognized as
having been made by gentlemen among the
most respectable in the State, denying that
Mrs. Perkins hnd ever failed to discharge her
duties honestly and fairly or that she had
ever exercised or sought to exercise any po.
ltlcal influence whatever. This is II specimen
of the necessities OF the party. They are
about starved out.
