Two men were recently hanged in the prison

Surprising this great and glorious Union is
on the brink of dissolution, the London Times
has sent correspondent to be in at the death
and he arrived in Washington just in time to hear
Stewards speech.
| On farm in North Quincy, last week, calf
was born, perfect in body. but having a head al
most perfectly resembling the human form, the
hair black and curly, the teeth small and the lips

Some of the rabid Black Republican sheets
in Massachusetts are apparently in doubt whether
to commend Stewards speech or not, their inclina-
tons being to sympathize with the small beer
partisans at Washington who begged Mr.. Seward
not to read such sentiments. The safety of the
Union is the sacrifice of Black Republicanism.

Who are the disunionists now?
