SOME of the managing Republicans
have got up a scheme for redStricting the
State for Congressional purposes, which,
we learn is now under the consideration
of those, in different parts Of the State,
who are to be included in the combination
which it is expected will pass the bill
through the General Assembly. 1t was
conceded during the last session by many
Of the leading Republican politicians and
presses, that the existing Legislature had
no right to district tho State, but all such
will now, Of course, take back the opin.
ions then advanced and go in for the
measure. TO tho Democracy it makaS
no difference what course is pursued AT
the approaching session, on this subject
since we expect to carry the Legislature
next fall. and then revise and correct
whatever may be done in the premises

The Kansas Raid.

WARSAW, Mo-, Dec. IA special
who arrived here tonight,
brings the following important items from
the West. 1t is from reliable source,
and can be relied upon:
CLINTON, Henry county, Dec. 1.-That
the public mind may not be miSnformed
and misled by the many emissaries the
Abolitionists are running to and fro
through the country East of this place,
as we are informed, and to justify those
who have acted promptly to prevent the
accomplishment of the dark designs Of
the a bolition marauders, under tho no.
torious Montgomery, in Kansas and on
the border, we state the following facts
in addition to those heretofore given:
The armed Abolitionists have contin-
ned their murderous operations in Bour-
bon and Linn counties, Kansas, hunting
down and driving from the territory all
men who have disapprovcd OF their rob-
bing, numbering, &c. and have in any
manner acted to sustain the laws, The
roads leading eastward from the territory
are crowded with wagons and persons,
male and female, escaping from them.
In one instance mother gave birth to
an infant on the road near Pippenvile,
in this State, during the fight of tho fam
lily.
On Monday night of this week, Mr.
Bishop, living on Usage river, about L.
miles north of Fort Scott, was aroused by
a noise in the night, and upon going to
the door was instantly shot down and kill
ed, his body being pierced by several balls
We have seen here for several days
wagons loaded with goods, furniture, DC
passing through not only from the Terri
tory, but from western points in this Stats
and other points within the line. Fami.
lies on and near the old jackson place
within this State, have been notified to
leave their homes by these outlaws, and
having no means of defence, have fled to
places in the interior for security, leaving
their homes and effects. Yesterday the
slaves owned by those living near the line
25 miles or more within this State, arri-
we'd here for safe keeping,
Thus have the citizens of Bates and
Vernon counties, since the commencement
of this insurrection, been threatened with
destruction of life and property, without
adequate means of defense or protection
Up to this time this state of things has
continued. Capt, Dark, of Butler, has
arrived here on his way for arms and am
munition and aid, from whom we have
learned some the above acts. Signed, ID.

Hon, SugRRARD CLEMENS, ofthe Wheel

a letter to his constituents, in which he
denounccs the hot and indecent haste of
Sonth Carolina with unqualified condem-
nation, regarding it's effects as perilous to
the cause of the South, and considers
that il will only result in the Southern
States becoming colonies of Great Britain
or stipendaries Of France. He will resent

HEALTH OF AMERICAN WOMEN.

Female irregularities, weakness, nritine dis.
placements, and all local uratine difficulties and
constitutional troubles Of women are entirely
cured by the Gnalienberg Marshall'e Uterine Ca.
thocon.
In this connection, Miss. Beecher. sister of tho
Rev Henry w ard Bcecher in letters to the peopte,
page 1923. says:-"l have nine sisters and sisters.
in.law, and fourteen female cousins, oil married,
and all delicate and ang. Amid the immense
circle OF my friends and acquainances ] cannot
recall ten married lads in this century and coun-
try, who nre perfectly healthy" In cases, how
ever, where the Graienberg Cathoicon has been
used, we must say that health has rapidly taken
the place of disease, and ladies have become robust
stroi5 vgerons and healthy.
Mrs Gleason, of Elmira, says; beautiful in
deed is the confidng, trusting nature OF woman,
bnt how much does 1t need to be protected by
wachtulness that will lead her, in time OF disease,
to appeal a medical adviser of scientific educa:
lion, moral worth and purity of character" All
these may bo secured by addressing the Grafen.

DID I NOT DO II WELL?

A rich man went to Washington, where he met
with q member of Congress whom he had known
when a lad in a very different condition of life,
why, SIR said he, ARE you a member OF Con
gress ? l remember when you used 50 black my
boots for me-
Well, sill, did I not do it well p was the prompt
and appropriate reply.
Now, boys, let me tell you something. The
great secre. of success in this life is doing well,
whatever one has to do. And that thing is moi
in all respects well done which is not done at the
right time.
Whatsoever thy hand fudoth to d., do it with
thy might and never put off till tomorrow whaI
ought to be done to day.
Do what you have to do promptly, and you viii
not fail. True and lasting success is not the re
suit of chance or luck, but Of Gods blessing or
we'll directed effort. If you would prosper, yor
must strive for il.
Nor is there any honest occupation, however
hunble, that is not honorable if well followed
No one need be ashamed of humble birth, or hest
tate to own the lowliest labor, if he can say thu
labor was well done.-Biblical Recorder.
