An Atrociou. pro-sInvery OUTAGE.

The Quincy (Ill) Wing and Republican COZ
tains an account ola most bloody and fendish out
rage perpctratcd at Lagrange, Mo-, Opposite Quin-
cy, on the Mississippi rivcr,) by party of pro
slavery Democratic rufi1ns Phe victim Of the
outrage vas q respectable German citizen of La
grange, named Frcdric Smaller. He has been a
resident Of Missouri for twelve years, and SAYS he
has always voted the Democratic ticket
The offence of which he was charged was that he
had assisted slaves to escape. They seized him on
mere suspicion, and without giving him a trial car
ried him to the woods, fastened q rope around his
neck, and hung him on tree, but cut him down
Awe, and then proceeded to strip him naked and
whipped him in the most fiendsh manner, with a
cowhide, until his body was completely covered
with bruises AMI cuts, and streaming with blood
The day was severely cold, and the blood freezing,
his body became completely encrustcd with purple
ice.
After having almost killed him, they ceased
their fortunes and left, uttering curses Oh his head
He Immediately escaped from Missouri. and Grass
Ing the river presented himself at the house Of his
brother-in-law, MIR. Da-bach, at Quincy, mos,
horrible spectacle.
Mr.. Smaller declares that he never tempered with
slaves. as he could have proved if they had given
him a trial--never helped any to escape, nor en-
couragcd the escape of slaves. He has always
been quiet citizen, but has probably voted with
the tyrant democracy for the last time.
1t is such acts of injustice, outrage and wrong
rs this that makes hate slavery and its advocates.
We have lived in slave State and know that if
any one is known to be opposed to slavery and a
slave happens to csc, pc from tie neighborllood he
is Immediately suspcioncd with aiding his escape,
and is Immediately subjected to such ou;ragcs as
the above, without any opportunity being allowed
him to prove his innocence. 1t is enough to make
ones blood boil in him, and no one but u tyrant
could look calmly on such scene

The Fre-Slarery Democracy have met perfect

Spring Elections.

We hope our friends all over the State ~ill not
forget that election ono light importance is to be
hcldin April. The disposition too often manifes-
ted to regard this election as of no consequences,
and make no exertion to carry it. Is one that no
party can retain long and live. II we give up the
township officers, we give into the hands of our
crafty and INSCRIPTIONS opponents exactly the pow
er they want a: the fall election And we give
them the advantage ofthe moral influence that at
tends every victory in Presidential CONTEXT. Let
our friends be up and working, then. Organize,
call conventions. canvass townships, and get out
voters rs zcalously for trustees and Justices and
constables, ms for Governor and electors. Let US
carry the spring election with glorious rush, and
il will help US 5000 votes in the election next fall
We mean just what say. thorough victory
in the township elections will do more than any
other possible influence to create the prestige and
the feeling that viii carry the Presidential cleo

Rev. w. c. Smith. Presiding Elder in
the Inliana conference, gives tn, following
account of Morgantown in this State. one
of the peculiarities Of which is that it is
built upon lake:
We real of "city set upon hill" but
Morgantown, in my district, stands upon
n lake! This was not known for a num-
Der Of years after the town was settled
The discovery was made BY digging wells
to obtain good supply OF water. The
supply of water in the wells which had been
used, failing in the Try season, few years
since, one oil the citizens concluded to sink
a well deeper and see If he could not strike
a stronger vein. When some thirty FIVE or
forty feet below the surface Of the earth the
man at work in the well suddenly struck
his pick through the crust. and the water
gushed up with such rapidity tl,as he was
with difficulty saved by the men at the
windlass. In few minucts the water was
some fifteen feet deep in the we'll. In two
or three instances. afterwarl. men were
near being lost by coming to this inexhaust-
lille fountain of water. Wells have been
sunk in different parts of the town, remote
from each other, and believe forty feet is
the greatest depth to reach this lake.
Lead lines have been dropped into sew
cral ofihcse wells, but no bottom has been
found. In digging down to this lake. they
invariably pass through strata of SAINT.
leaves anil timber resembling drift wood.
This is some twenty feet below the surface
Of the earth. After passing through these
strata, stratum Of hard clay is found, and
when within some Is inches of the lake a
hard crust is reached, which is sure indi-
cation that they are near the water. When
they reach this crust they commence wal!
thereon, carrying it to the top of the we'll,
then put down large anger and bore a
hole to the water, which gushes MP with
great force. filling the we'll from fifteen to
twenty feet in few minutes. When the
anger strikes the lake the atmosphere bursts
up for few seconds. producing sound re-
scmbling very much The blowing off Of
steam from an engine. have not given
all the particulars of what has been discov-
cred Of this mysterious lake. Enough is
known to settle it beyond doubt that the
whole town, stands upon lake under

But they must not expect the paper to effect ev-
sry thing. In addition to subscribing and paying
for the paper in advance every man Of them that is
