Many thanks to our brother of the A.
mcrican Farmer for coming to our rescue.
We don't want to 60 down hill, or 90 to
the West-we want to stay here and bring
about such improvements as will make
our people contented, and anxious to do
likewise. We arc glad to meet one who has
been down hill and out West, and heartily
assures Us that there is way to get out
of the darkness.
We commend the sensible suggestions of
our confree to our readers, and hope they
may profit by reading them.
Let US pray no longer to Hercules, but
put our shoulder to the wheel.-Ed. Far.

The Duplicity of Douglas.

Hon. S. 8. Cox, who is running hope
less race for Congress, against Hon. Samu-
Ell Galloway, lately made speech in c.
lumbus, in the course of which he showed
up the treacbery of Douglas in anything
but an enviablc light. Wequote from the
Columbus Fact:
s'N1r. Cox said he had been blamed by some
for his vote on the English bill but he stated
distinctly that he had consulted with Judge
Douglas, and that he advised and approved of
the vote. Judge Douglas himself, when the
bill came to the Senate, voted against it, al
though it was in exactly the shape in which he
had advised his friend Cox to support it. Here
is testimony against Judge Douglas, which Mr.
Cox got from his own mouth, to, show that .
demagogue can play on both sides Of the same
question: Douglas knew that the vote of Cox
would be necessary 10 carry the, bill through
the House, and therefore instructed him how
to vote When it came to the Senate he knew
that it would pass without his vote, and he
voted against it, thus playing on both sides Of

Rail Road Right Of Way.

clambering round past the locomotive, we
all took tho track, jumped over cowditch,
and PRESENT. came into "cut" where the
banks arose perhaps twenty feet on each

track torn up for two or three rods; and
an obstruction built of logs, stumps and

An Unfortunate Position.

Mr.. Douglas still finds insuperable DIFF
fculties in the way of ascertainipg the res
idence Of his mother, BY some peryezse
fate, whose untimely ihterpoeitions- vex
us all, he will, doubtless, be compelled to
visit every principal southern city and
half the towns before he hits. upon the
northern village where she lives and awaits
the return of her absent son. Aud then
he is beleagured at every point by people,
who do not seem so anxious to ret him on
the right road as to hear him return
thanks, and reannounce the flial duty. IF
he telegraphs to one city of his coming, no
one consults the directory, aud tells SHIN
his mother is not resident there. but they
insult his grief with brass bands and aid
his search with torchhght professions. Il
is not certain if Mr.. Douglas will ever End
his mother. The census takers may aid
him but judging by the: past, even this
hope will be denied Another such IN
fortunate man is not in public ,life,. All
manner Of diseases harass him, and keep
him away from civic duties as perversely
as the loss Of his mother keeps him from
flial ones. ri When the homestead bill
