What Lucy Thought of Cleve-
land.

The reporter of the Cleveland Plain
dealer, who accompanied Lucy, the fugi-
tive, on her return trip to Virginia, reports
the following dialogue with her: Iasked,
How do you like Cleveland?
A.-Don't like it at all, they are the
damdest set of liars in the world. If l
had Green's wife and Whites Id split their
heads for telling on me.
Q.-Goshorn says they didn't do it
don't you believe him?
A.-No DON'T wish 1 had gone to
Canada. If Cleveland folks hadn't told
me l was just as safe in Cleveland as in
Canada l shouldn't be here now.
Odd your coiored folks lie?
A.-Yes jist as bad as anybody.
Q.-The story goes that you used 70
pounds of butter in one week in Mr.. Rid
dies family, is that true9
A.-Damned lie.
Q.-Mr. Goshorn says you didn't swear
before you lived in Cleveland, how is this
A.-That'S true, but its enough to
make any one swear the way they treated
one in that dam phase.
Odd the fngitiues in Cleveland treat
you better than the free negroesa
A.-They're all fugitives nearly, and all
alike. know lots on EN-. She was cheer
full, talkative and free, but down on Cleve-
land.

A TIGHT FIx.-A ccording to the New
Orleans True Delta the Blaze pilots are in
tight place. Under the orders of the
Governor of Louisiana, who appears TO
be getting ready to emulate the violence
of Gov. Pickens, the pilots are forbidden
to bring iu any American vessel of-war-
The True Delta sets forth the unpleasant
alternative.
"If vessel Of war, bearing the Ameri
can flag, should overhaul pilot-boat in
the Gulf, the probability is that the piiot
will have to 60 on board the vessel war
or the pilot-5oat and all hands will be sunk
When the pilot gets on poard the vessel
of-war the next probability is, that his at
tention will be called to the yard-arm
with the emphatic hint that if he does no
do his duty faithfully he will have to dangl'
in the air. If this be not placing tht
Balize pilots in tight box, we don't know
what is"

ANEcD orE OF Gov. HIcKs.-A cores
of the New York Tribune tells the follow
ing good story of the present Governor of
Maryland:
"When Judge Handy came on here
last month, as a messenger of treason
and rebellion on the part of Mississippi,
he sought to induce the Governor by the
lavish of Mississippi cotton eloquence,
but finding bis efforts in vain, be jumped
up from his chair and stalking across the
room exclaimed with all the theatrical
force of Mr.. Forrest himself: "Finally,
Gov. Hicks, let me tell you that Cotton is
King" Up jumps the Governor from
his char, excited by this announcement,
and lifting up his arms high in air, exclaim-
ed at the top of his voice: "Mr. Handy
not Commissioner of Mississippi, but
MIR. Handy-let Inc tell you, sir. that l
will see King Cotton in hi, sir, before
be shall reign over mel"

A POLITICIAN AT A PRAYER MEETING.
"A politician at Grand River Valley, not
often seen at church, recently attended a
prayer meeting. We shall call him Squig-
gle, by way of concealment. In short
time his countenance lost its usual oily,
jolly look, and became oblivious of the So
lemnities going on around him, and plung-
ed into profound reverie over the recent
defeat of his party in Maine, which he had
been discussing that morning. As he re-
flected his face naturally elongated, and his
jaw dropped. Noticing his serious and
solemn look, and not remembering ever TO
have seen him before, one of the brethren
took him to be a stranger of religious
turn of mind, and leaned over the bench,
and remarked:
"Brother, these are refreshing seasons.
Squiggle gazed vacantly at the speaker,
and groaned inwardly. The brother pur-
sued:
at is good to be here"
Squiggle, still absorbed in revery, groan-
ed again.
"Brother, do you often think ofyour fu-
ture state?"
At the word "State' the eyes of our De-
mccratic friend lost their dreamy look, and
his jaw clashed into place like rat-trap.
"State!H he exclaimed, bringing down
his clenched fist upon the back of the ques-
toners bench, with an emphasis that star
tied the worthy brother greatly, "Oh! it's
gone Black Republican by $4,000 major
ity."

Senator Seward,s Speech

The Toronto Globe, in reviewing the
speech of Senator Seward, says:
If Mr.. Seward "had to deal with men
who themselves dealt with reason, and not
with class who will hear of nothing but
that impossible concessions should be made
TO them, he would have succeeded. He
looks to the logic of the matter; with any
thing so commonplace they will have
naught to do. There is only one hope.-
Any American, whether of the North OF
of the South, who reads his convincing
arguments, his noble appeal on behalf Of
the Union, must, ie be has any love for
his country, stay bis hand, and determine
that, come what may, he for one will
stand by the Constitution. If this appeal
could be brought to the raging masses of
the Slave States, then it might prove as
an entering wedge, soon to be driven home.
But we much fear it will rather be reckon
ed among the dangerous and incediary
documents which are cast into the fire, and
for the distribution of which, if caught,
Is the certain penalty"
