We were amused, in the street, at . little
conversation which indicates more than the
passing conversation Of the moment always
does. A Republican friend, who generally
keeps his pockets full OF documents for the
benefit Of strangers whom be may casually
meet, handed one to a countryman with the
request that he would read it. The man re-
mar ked that he did not want it. But, said
our friend, it is the speech Of Mr.. So-and. SO,
On such an occasion, (uaming a great speech
Of an eminent many. Still the man declined.
Why, don't you like to see what such men
say asked our friend. Well, stranger, said
the man, the fact is, can't read, Then
our friend felt prompted to make = few in
quiries. Where was he from? Illinois,
How did he think the election would 70 over
there? 0, Douglas would have great ma
jori,y. Had he not heard Trumbull, or Lin
coin, or any of the great Republicans Of Illi-
noisf No. And il these Republica fellows
should carry the election and turn ell them
niggers free down South and have them come
up here and marry our daughters, wouldn't
it be awful!

The KIDNAPPING CAsE.--We learn from
the darlington Gazette that legal proceed
ings have been commenced against the per-
sons implicated in the kidnapping Of PEN
dleton.
1t will be remembered by some OF our
readers that the Gazette opened out in a
very fierce style aeainst tho kidnappcrs, and
Urged that the majesty of the law and the
dignity Of the State Of Iowa should be vim
Dictated at once by the most stringent pro-
cess known to the law. Those readers will,
therefore, be surprised to learn that the
Gazette new turns tail and denounces the
prosecution Of the kidnappers as q villainous
Republican affair.
We, however, are not surprised, for If
there is mean side and rascally side to
any matter, the editor Of that sheet will
plant himself there to maintain and defend
il, sooner or later.
RAILROAD Commemorative take pleas
urc in chronicling the fact that J. Edgar
Thompson, Esq, who has taken lively in
terest in our Keokuk railroad projects, and
for whose kind attentions we are under per-
sonal obligations, has been elected President
Of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad Company. The election OF Mr..
Thompson to this position, says the Harris
burgh Telegraph sis u virtual consolidation
Of that road wi tn the Pennsylvania Railroad,
OF which he has been President for several
years. He has thus become the chief officer
and general manager Of the longest contin-
uous line Of railroad in the world, namely:
from the city Of Philadelphia to the city Of
Chicago, SIS miles. About 60 miles of the
road ue1t to Chicago is still unfinished, but
it viii probably be completed by the 6rst Of
November. Meantime the line is in complete
operation by the use OF another road for
that distance. Mr.. Thompson has . very
high reputation as railroad engineer and
and is probably one Of the best in
The country"
