Prize Fight Shown to be False.
In the account given in Bells life of the
recent fight between Heenan and Sayers, a
contributor to New York paper says
notice the following language:
''37th and last round-Immediately after
this Heenan rushed away from the ring, and
ran some distance with the activity of deer,
proving that as far as strength was concerned
he was as fit as ever; but he had not been
away from the ring many minutes before he
was totally blind.'
This statement is piece of contemplate
meanness and falsehoOd on the part of the
English to screen themselves in the wrong.
What condition Mr.. Heenan's eyes were in
after he left the ring, and was quietly seated
in the cars, is no evidence as to what his con-
dition would have been had he remained in
the ring fighting. 1t must be perfectly clear
to every Psychologist and medical man, that
while Mr.. Heenan's whole frame was power
fully exercised in the fight and particularly
every other part more than his face, that the
circulation Of the blood must have necessarily
tended to those parts most exercised, and that
therefore the tendency ofblood TO the eyes must
have been limited, thus keeping down excessive
congestion, Inflammation and swelling, and
with proper attention from his second, he
could have retained his sight for an indefinite
But the moment he ceased exercising and
seated himself quietly in the cars the circu-
lation of the blood tended freely to the in
jured parts, and the eyes being the most ten
l der, an excessive congestion, inflammation
/ and swelling set in as natural consequence
| 1t is, therefore, not only idle but despicable
for the English to resort to such false state.
ments and differences to make it appear that
Heenans eyes would have been SO swollen
in few minutes as to have blinded him and
that Sayers might have won the fight. A
man who can run and jump two bitches il
not very blind.
In regard to the referee deciding the fgh
a draw, because he could not see the parties
Sayers has forfeited all benefit by coming VI
| TO the fight in FIVE subsequent rounds, ant
after the last remaining seated on his second
knee refusing to come to time. Had h
wished the benefit of draw he and his sec
onds should have withdrawn after the thirty
seventh round.

UNDER the cardinal rule which under
lies the Government that the majority shall
govern, Mr. Douglas is fairly entitled to the
omination.-Enquirer.
Perhaps; but here is the difficulty: While
one rule underlies the Government, an
other and very different rule underlies the
Democratic party How many times has this
very two-third rule, which, according to the
opinion of our nearest neighbor, has operated
so unjustly in this particular case, been holden
up as the grand, particular, distinctive fea-
ture of the Democratic organization? Thou
sands of ftimes it has been defended by Demo-
cratic journals-the Enquirer, doubtless in
cluded-against the same charges which the
friends of Mr.. Douglas are now repeating.
That it is unsound in principle; that it was
felt to be so at the time of its adoption; that
it was adopted for improper purposes, ana
has always been unfortunate in its effects, is
true; but that it is Democratic, peculiarly,
intensely, exclusively Democratic, is one of
the most prominent and undeniable facts in
the history of our political affairs.
1t is, we feel emboldened to say, slightly in
bad taste for our cotemporary to squeal just
at this moment under the pressure of what
may be fairly called the organic rule of the
Democratic party, just because, in this par
ticular instance, it happens to work against
him. Had he, or Mr.. Douglas, when Their
interests were less Immediately concerned
ever been a protestant against it, the cas-
would be different AS it is, the better way
as the boys say, is to grin and bear it."

Touching Devotion Of White Slave TO her
Mother still in BONDAGE.

At the Oberlin Church in Lorraine County,
on Sunday. the minister stated that there
was in the congregation woman who had
been slave, Her father and owner had
lived in South Carolina. Her father dying
without freeing her, she with her mother
nassed "a anothef Cwner, who, becoming em-
'bafassed was forced TO sell them TO different
masters she going TO New Qrreans, and her
utdthtf 10 fexas. AT the death Of her third
master. the daughter was emancipated, and
coming TO this city resolved TO devote her
life 10 ibe redemption of her mother. After
many unsuccessfnl efforts she learned her
whereabouts. and ascertained that her
mother could be purchased for $1,000.
Az ftst the Girl thought 10 lay up the
amount by washing, but she found after
wears of trial. that she might scrub till she
grew old and died and yet not save the re-
9uisite sum. Taking the advice of a Quaker
friend she resolved to visit the friends of the
moor in the State of Ohio and ask for money.
She has done so. She has wandered from
city to city, from village to village, rom
farm to farm, meeting with some encourage
ment and some rebufis until now she mas
gathered together nearly six hundred dollars
of the required thousand.
A desire being expressed to see the woman,
she arose. Every one was atonished at her
whiteness and purely Saxon nppe~ance.. In
figure she is tall andcrcct, was neatly attlreu,
and her whole appearance was that OF well
bred Int priefsubdued Saxon woman. No
further appeal was needed; the collection
| that was then taken up for her benefit at
| tested the feelings of the audience.
