FREE NEGRoIsM IN THE NoRTH.-The Cincinnati
Commercial, of the 26th ult furnishes the following
illustration of the blessings of free negroism in that
city:
Yesterday afternoon two negresses attacked a
white woman, who was passing through Elm street,
threw her upon the pavement, and maltreated her in
an outrageous manner, after which they left, and
made very quick time in getting out of sight. The
colOred women who were the assailants were very
fashily dressed. The white woman had a little boy
with her, who cried bitterly while the assault was
being perpetrated. The most disgusting feature of
the transaction consisted in the fact that number
of male white bipeds, some of whom wore good
clothes, and by great stretch of the imagination
might be considered respectable, stood by and en-
couraged the assault What proyocation might have
been given, we do not care to know, but the scene
was one which was utterly disgraceful to all con-
cerned. No arrests were made.

HORACE GREELEy's CoNvERsIoN.-Th St. Louis
Leader comments follows upon the statement that
Horace Greeley had "got religion:
According to the last bulletin Of the Revivasts,
that beloved OF higgedypggledy theories, Horace
Greeley has been brought to the snfuness of his
SOUL aad has taken to groanng instead of shrieking
They say that he has given up Kansas and now goes
for Heaven. We perceive, however, that grace did
not fall upon him, until after he had seen how the
vote went in the Senate.
If Horace has been converted, sure enough, he will
be great loss to the devil. His majesty will have
lost his prime minister nor do we wee how he can
form any working administration without that admi-
rabe premier.
We fear however, that it will turn out that Horace
has taken Christianity for another ism the latest
and most popular crotebet OF the day. Indeed, it
would be pity, if man couldn't believe In the
Bible, who has believed in everything else.

p RED RIvER.-Steamer Sunk.-From the Shreve-
port Southwestern, of Wednesday last We extract
the following:
The river has risen three feet since last, and
continues to rise rapidly. Accounts from upper Red
river report it TO be high and rising Capt MeMillen,
of the Effort states that Little river has overowed
its banks and that he saw large numbers of CATTLE
hogs, deer ETC., in the water
1t commenced raining about IL A. NJ, Monday,
and continued without ntermission until midnight
The wind blew heavy gale during the greater part
of the time.
The steamer Dede, Capt. Colvin, hence for upper
Red river with full cargo of assorted merchandise,
while endeavorng to get through Black bayou, took
a sheer aud swung broadsde into the rapid current,
which carried her among the timber, raking off the
cabin and upper works. and then capsized the hull,
which sunk in twelve feet water. The crew and pas
sengers barely escaped with their lives and were
forced to climb into the trees for safety the country
being overfowed They were brought back to town
by the Effort. We regret to learn that one Of the
crew was drowned. The boat, together with the
greater portion of her cargo will prove total loss.
The Dede and the cargo were insured in the Shreve-
port Insurance Company to the amount of $3.50.

A CLERICAL VICTIM OF THE PATENT SAFE GAME.
An elderly Methodist minister from Virginia, on his
way to Council Bluffs, fell in with an elegant pausi.
Bile fellow on the steamboat at Cincinnati and was
invited by his new friend to take walk into the
city. The Commercial thus relates what followed
On their way they fell in with another man who
exhibited patent safe, and after going through with
the usual ceremony of opening it, and exhibiting
paper inside which was removed by the confederate
Of the sale man. the latter proposed to bet that there
was slip OF paper inside, which they could not get
The minister refused to wager anything, declaring it
against his principles, but assured the man with
the safe that there was no paper in it, The stranger
still insiste on backing his assertion, when the cbn
federate, who was in company with the old mi n,
handed the latter check for S7I5, on New York
bank, and proposed that he should lend him what
money he bad, and take that as security and he
wonld make the bet.
The minister complied, and counted out 1888 in
gold and Virginia notes, which were no sooner
handed r. than the rascal with the safe seized the
money and started on the run down the street
The old man began to cry out, but the other fellow
told him to keep quiet, and pulling out pistol
started after the chap with the cash, saying, " III
make him give back that money, or kill him ~ The
| two turned the next corner and were soon ont 81
sight The minister made his loss known TO police
man, but too late to the money or catch tn,

pressed less regret at the loss of the money thar

RIVER AND WEArHtR.-The Baton Rouge Adyo-

The weather has cleared up, after giving us a
refreshing shower. The rain Of Monday night was q
welcome visitor to our planters
The river continues to rise rapidly. II is now
higher than at any time during the winter. The
strength of our levees will be put to severe test if
the rise continues
From the Alexandria Democrat Of Tuesday last we
extract the following paragraphs:
The weather during the week has been most deli
cous. We have never known equal number OF
days more delightful. Under the influences of the
" sweet south winds" the bamy air, days of serene
beauty and nights of starry loveness the forest has
arrayed itself in festal garments and the flowers have
come forth to welcome the coming of spring.
The river is rising rapidly, with every prospect Of
high water. The Mississippi is rising, and we have
reports of immense heavy rains the country of the
upper tributaries of Red river
We can boast of being something in the way OF 9
commercial town. Ten steamers gave us a call OIL
Saturday last.
The Lake Providence Herald of Saturday last says
| The river has been rising rapidly at this poin
| during this week. The weather is beautiful-as fin
| as the planter or tradesman could wish TO see.
