An IMposTER- man calling him
self w. III. Thornsberry is travelling
through the State representing himself
as an Odd Fellow, and by plausible
but false representation is soliciting aid
from the various Lodges and members.
He victimized the charitably disposed
citizens of Charlottesville, Fort Wayne
and Lafayette, last week to the amount
of nearly 800, which he secured under
the pretence that his family was in a
suffering condition at indianapolis.
We saw him on the streets of this city
last Saturday-both eyes in mourning
and the other unmistakable evidence Of
hard spree.
Said w. II. Thornsberry is about
feet 10 inches high, of medium build
about 3S years of age, fair complexion
and dark hair and whiskers.-Lafayettt

The Message.

We present this week, to the exclus-
ion of our usual amount of reading, this
ponderous document, entire, and we
hope every body will read it, and then
carefully preserve it for future refer
ence. Not because this Message con-
tains anythingof real intrinsic worth or
Importance, or with the expectation
that the views, or words rather, SUBJ
mitted will meet with favorable consid-
Grafton or response from our readers,
but simply to see with what ingenuity
ofargument and sophistry of statement,
not to say perversion of history, and
verbosity of words it takes to keep a
champion of a weak and rotten prin-
ciple in conceit with himself, and how
beautifully can be illustrated Sheridan's
definition of language.
1t is truly a message of Words
words-words; tedious for its great
length and rhetorical application !;
and in some parts especially the
opening column or two-more like a
partizan harangue than all official mes
sage from the President of the United
States.
The President experiences "heart-
felt satisfaction" in view of his advoca-
cy of Lecompton, and devotes great
portion of his message to the Kansas
question. Here evidently, is where he
labored hardest-and certainly, the
most experienced party hack writer
could not have produced more thor
oughly partizan and sophistical show
ing. He justifes the Lecompton infa-
my, and attempts to excuse the extrav-
agance of his administration, which is
simply amusing. He "goes in" for
Cuba and Mexico; the former by pur-
chase, as we cannot afford to fight her
numerous allies, but recommends the
establishment of military posts in Mex
leo, for the purpose, as he says, of pro-
tecting our overland mail, but ostensibly
to seize that territory I" to indemnify
us for injuries done by her to the pers-
ons or property of American citizens. D
We have not the time nor space to
notice this long-drawn-out document
more fully this week, and we do not
think it necessary, as a careful perusal
of the message itself Is all that most
people viii care to bestow.

az The New York Tribune in
speaking of recent case in that city,
where a young woman, returning from
her work in the evening, was forcibly
dragged into an Alley, and brutally
outraged by four or five iends in hui
man shape, says =" There is not in
the whole world a beastlier animal
than the New Y orkrowdy. Thereis the
fact-not a pleasant one certainly-but
there is the fact. We believe that an
unprotected woman would be safer
among the savage tribes of America or
Africa, than in the streets of New
York, Compared with a thorough
paced New York 'rowdy,' the Digger
Indian rises into CELESTIAL attitudes OF
refinement and humanity"

Rice has consented to pass all persons

ment of the sum necessary for this sim
gle purpose, without requiring it to be
transported in post coaches or carria-
ges OF any particular description. I'm
der the present system, the expense to
the Government is greatly increased,
by requiring that the mail shall be car.

date passengers. This will be done
without pay from the department, over
all roads where the travel will remune-

These recommendations deserve the
