The summons to surrender was reported by Col.
Bliss, who when he had translated it to Old lack,

TRAVELLING IN CIRCLE -IiABtTs

TRAVELLING IN ClRCLE-IiABtTs OF
BrwlLoHRED PEopLE'-A correspondent of
the Scientific Ameylcan says:
In late number of your paper you state,
in answer to some correspondent, that you
have no confidence in the report that when
man Is lost he ill travel in circle" In
this you are certainly mistaken it is fact
well known TO front ierSmcn that, when per-
sons are brw lldcrcd, they frequently travel in
a perfect circle, sometimes Keeping the same
track until they make dozen equal rounds
at other times making the circle larger OF
smaller each time. 1t is not by any means
always the case when person is lost but ii
is so frequent that is within the experience
of every one who has been much in the woods
In calm and cloudy weather, and in coun.
try OF much samencss OF appearance, the best
woodSmen get so bewidercc as to take the
circles Persons" not accustomed to the
woods will sometimes do so when the sun is
shining and steady breeze blowing. On the
level of gulf prairies of this country, on calm
iuggv morning, no man can travel without 3
n rod. 1t is an incident of every day occur
renee in the spring aud fall seasons that mer
are thus balanced on the prairies as eiiectually
as are ships at sea /; nor will a compass mend
the matter, for it cannot be carried steadily
enough to keep its meridian. and the course
1t points cannot be kept for fifty yards if q
man attempts it he will make a circle anC
come back to the pace where he started from
| The circle will be large OF small generally il
proportion to the density of the tog-some
times only a hundred yards in diameter: at
ohel times mile, but seldom more. Tn,
circles thus made are perfect. This kind o
wandering seems to arise from an attempt Il
90 a straight course when there is nothing u
| guide the senses, or when the usual guides O
sun, wind, or general contour of the country
are diSregaIded. 1t rarely beialls children
who do not attempt to go a course, but only
run from one visible point to another equally
perceptible.

1.-THE locofoco organs throughout the
country are fiercely assaiing the American
amendment 10 the Constitution Of Nlassachn-
SETS recently adopted in spite of the united
opposition of the abolition Republican and
Democrats. 1t requires a residence of two
years after naturalization as qualification
for the right TO vote. During the session Of
the Legislature Of South Caroua in 1855 ST,
law to the same effect was PASSED by the
democratic representatives. of that State. No
word of complaint against this action of
South Carolina has been uttered by the Dem
ocrntic organs that are now so iutiouSy be-
rating Massachusetts for doing precisely
what Democratic South Carolina did four
years ago. 1t was their bull did the damage
then and they were as silent as the tomb
It's somebody else's bull now, and they are
splitting their windpipes with the vehenence
Of their denuncia'ions. The law is right
now as it was then. 1t is right IN MasSachu-
set is and as it was and is in South Carolina
1t tends to protect the purity Of the ballot box,
and to prevent at least some portion Of the
frauds by which locofocoSm has deiiled the
elective franchise, aud defeated time and
again the conservative majority of the people.
1t is protection to natulalized as well as
native voters, and when properly understood
will be approved by every intelligent foreign
born citizen .--Cipper.
