The Last Confidence Man.

/ Dr. La Coste, of whom brief mention wa.
made in our last, has come and-gone. AND
with him went the hard-earned money of
some OF our citizens. If they have learned
to let quacks alone hereafter bv the little bi,
OF experience, they have got their MONEYS
worth.
When the celebrated Mrs. Addison was
here some three years since, We printed an
article on quacks which came near bringing
upon US a suit for libel. For that and other
reasons we believe it was pretty just and
tearing that many have forgotten it entirely,
we will again advance some ideas to which
We then gave currency. After paving as We
thought just tribute to the regular rhysi-
elan' we said that it was an easy thing to be
cheat, quack "a humbus. And it is an ey-
cry day occurrence almost, that an imposter
a designing and ignorant knave. is accorded
the public honor, and allowed to put an az
arlclous hand into the public purse, when
the lons-tried and skilliul physician who is
known to be above charlatanry and the
transparent tricks that gull the credulous, is
neglected. There is an uncomfortable pro-
pensity IN some people to be humbussed.-
They seem to be really unhappy unless they
are swallowing from day to day some vile
decoction of "yarbs," or pills coated with soft
soap, no matter how thick. If the yender of
those delicacies makes more than the usual
extravagant assertions, or blows his own
trumpet little louder than his predecessors
IN the same line, then his victims are much
the more numerous. The very boidness of
his pretensions, nay, even their utter impos-
sibllity, makes more dupes than modest
course would. A great many people are
more ready to believe marvellous lies than
to credit sober truth. They are like the Sul.
tan Hassi Boobee, who believed every word

cross the ocean on whales back, but when

been established in nearly, or quite every
ward, and they are prosecuting the canvass
with an energy not exceeded in any other
part Of the country. The New York Tribune
declares that much larger Republican vote
will be given there in November than was ev-
er given before. Besides this, preparations
are in progress for public meeting of con-
servative men, who have not been accustom.

Fortunately the nominee was honester than

We detest the principles of the Alabama

The Doug las men profess to entertain the
same views as ourselves in respect to those
principles, and yet with the vain hope of con-

aid in elevating to the second post in the ma
TONS councils, which might in the CHAPTER

heresies.
But the self respect of the nominee has
relieved them from the awkwardness of
their position, while it has exposed their du-
plicity.

IHE Captured AFRICANs.-Our readers
know that several hundred Africans, who
have lately been taken in slave ships, are
quartered at Key West awaiting their return
to Africa by our government. 1t is believed
these Africans are being stolen and taken to
our Southern ports SO fast that Uncle Sam
will have few to ship to Africa by the time
his tardy ships are ready. One hundred ana
fifty were taken up the river at Mobile last
week who were believed to be part of those
captured and stored at Key West. The au-
thorities at this latter place pretend that the
Africans are dying very rapidly.
