AFe strange spectacle IS presented II
Missouri, Of some Of the strongest loyal
and anti-slavery men endeaToring to prove
thst their State should be classed among
the rebel states. TIE object Of this effort
.istO 80 place the State that she may be in
GUIDED in the operation of the Presidents
emancipation scheme Of January next
In the Missouri Democrat is a long COM
munisstion from Hon. B. Graz Brown,
r urging this course. He says there are now
estimated to be about forty thousand SLAVES
In the state. That number will doubtless
be reduced to thirty thousand or less, be-
fore any action can be had upon the sub
jest of emancipation. To affirm that more
than one-haif Of them are held by masters
who have 30 far aided and abetted the re-
bsllion as to have lost all right to their
ownership under the "ConfscatiOn Act, 2 is
only to generalizs facts Of which we have
daily illustration in the liberation Of slaves
by the Provost Marshals, not only at divi-
sion headquarters, but throughout the in
terror counties. Tho residue Of fifteen
thousand, assessed upon the present tax
valuations, would not aggregate more than
i've millions Of dollars, nor represent more
than six thousand loyal Shareholders,
It is evident that slavery would, under
natural eanTss, cease in Missouri at no
distant day. It is daily losing its strength
and wasting away, The sooner, then,
that the institution ceases to cumber the
ground, the speedier win be the realization
to all CLASSES of the prosperity that viii
attend repOpulatiOn and industried de7el-
Opment Loyal Shareholders viii do we'll
to secure for themselves compensation Of
their slaves, which they viii not receive If
they see the institution die a natural death
in term of years And disiOyal owners
should, Of course, be made to suffer a sac
rihcs, as apenalty for their rebellion.
But aside from dictates Of Interest the
emancipation in the rebel states viii
specify XIII slavery IN Missouri. Sur
rounded by free states she cannot hold
slaves, and no constitutional enactments
can extend the lease of life of slavery in
her borders.
He urges therefore the people 70 petition
the President to include that State in the
operation of his proclamation of freedom of
January lst 1888. In this view the Dem
ocrst comedies, and there are strong hopes
that the effort will be successful. If SO,
then 10 stsfein the Union viii offer more
Inducements 10 settlers who have either
money or energy, or both, than Missouri.
With rich soil, fertile and pleasant eli
mate, and mineral wealth almost incalcu-
liable, she will shortly become one Of the
greatest States in the renewed and regen-
aratad Union.

An Arkansas volunteer in the Mexican
war, riding on horseback, came across an
IllinOisian who was shot in the leg. The
Illinoisian told him he was wounded, and
asked to be taken up and conveyed out of
danger. Arkansas placed him behind
on the saddle and fastened him to himself
with leather strap. While they were
fastening from danger, a grape shot took
illinois head of, but Arkansas" thought
he had only tainted from fatigue and pain !;
when a safe place was arrived at, the horse
man released his charge. and seeing his
head was gone, exclaimed, Well the nli-
noisans are the greatest liars Haza,s q
rascal With his head 5ut OF he told me he
was only shot in the leg. You can't believe

According to ParsOn BrownlOw, speech

Prospects of the New York Election.
Mr.. Lincoln carried this State by little
less than fifty thousand majority on the
fullest vote ever polled.
We feel entirely confident that Wads-
worth will do at least ten thousand better
than Lincoln in the counties below the
ighlands-Sufolks, Queens, Kings, Rich
mond, New York, ROckland, Westchester
and Putnsm.
If the ffty-two counties above the High
lands shall do forty thousand worse than
they did in 1861, Wadsworth must have at
least twenty Thousand majority.
We're the volunteers at home to vote, we
should sweep everything before US. If a
third of them were drawn from the Demo
cratic side, there can be no trouble Our
only shadow Of danger is created by the
enormous preponderanoe OF Republicans
among those of our electors who have gone
to the war.
Among those who opposed Lincoln in
1860, but now support Wadsworth and the
Union ticket, are the following honored

These are few among thousands. But,
above all, the fact that ours ia the ticket
which all sgho symp1thizs lSiA the rebellion
oppose and Vish defeated, ought to Be enough.

York that shall be music to the ears Of

nothing seems SO unpopular with these
gloved drones as rapid marches and active
! movements. General Orders are the chief
productions of their leaden brains, and
4 they expend much of their energies in
preventing the plueking Of an apple or the
gathering Of few potatoes by men fed on
fat bacon, hard bread and Rio coffee. No
man is allowed to leave camp without a
pass signed by mis- Captain and Colonel,
and countersigned by the General com
manding the Division, so that it is almost
impossible to 90 into town to purchase the
smallest comfort. And now, pickets are
forbidden, under severe penalty, to ask to
buy warm meal at the house Of a eiti-
zen. Can it be that any ohioan is respOn-
sible for these abominations fear so,
thought should hope not.

| Some people think it is /" big thing" to be an
editor. Well, perhaps it is--but we don't see it,
fellow is dead-headed into circuses and concerts
and rides on of the railroads free, but that
one fact destroys nearly all Of the pleasure When
We had to scrimp for week to get dollar to buy
seat at the opera, the delight experienced was
proportiOned to the sacrifice of the money it cost u.s.
When you can ride on a railroad for nothing you
don't care snap about going at all and so on.
An editor occasionally gets presents, but they are,
of use to him nor to any one else. In his paper
he may say forty good things unapplauded. but if
he happens through some carelessness or mistake
to get of an obnoxious paragraph, he catches -
from the entire community. III he omits anything
he is lazy. If he speaks of things as they are,
people are mad. If he CLOSES over-smooths
down the rough points, he is bribed. If be calls
things hy their proper names, he is unfit for the
position Of editor. If he does not furnish his
readers with jokes he is a mullet If he does he
is a rattle-head, wanting stability. If he con-
demns the wrong he is a good fellow, but lacks
discretion. If he lets wrongs and injuries 90 un-
mentioned he is a coward. If he upholds a public
man he does it to crafty spite-is q tool OF 9
clique, or belongs to the g out" IF he INDUCES
in personalities he is klackguari-if he does not
his paper is dull and insipid. They put Job
through pretty hard course of sprouts according
to Holy Writ, but there is no record of his being
obliged to serve as an editor Of daily paper
That would doubles have been more than even
his patience could have withstood. He probably
in such case would have taken the advice of his
friends-cursed and died.-Dubuqus Times.

airy Ar Hieherer) who lived for some time in their
nelghborhoos, ' of parents throwing their tender
offspring to the hungry lion who stood roaring be-
fore their cavern, refusing to depart until some
peace Offering was made to him." They shun the
lace OF strangers, coIrealing themselves amongst
rocks and bushes, and sven throwing themselves
over precpices rather than fall into the hands of
their enemies.1 But they 'hav, been known. when
escape has been cut off, to fight with the most de-
termined resolution.
Religion they have none. They res,rd the thun-
der as the voice of an angry demon, and they reply
to it with curses and imprecations. Their Ian
guage is inartculate to all but themselves, and
there appears to be scarcely even a possibility of
either eiviizing or converting them. In the north

murder
No presents of cattle or corn, no inducements to
locate or settle, can prevail on them to relinqush
their wild life, or to make any approach towards
civilization. The only satisfactory thought con-
nected with them is the belief of their gradual
tinction. They exist in the meantime, an awful
proof of degradation to which humanity, in its
gradual deterioration, can fall, and instance of
physical and moral degeneraey probably unparal-
eled in the world.-L0ndon Reuieuc.

The Bushmen of South Africa.

On the banks and in the valleys of the Snowberg,
or Snowy Mountains, which form the northern
boundary of the Cape, humanity is found in the
very lowest state of degradation in which it has
ever been exhibited. The BOsjesmans, or bushmen.
two three specimens of which race were brought
to this country a few years ago, present an exag-
geration even of the bideous form which character
ICES the Hottentot. Hunger, cold, nakedness. and
every description of prvation and Distress have
dwarfed their forms and depraved their minds that
they present spectacle painful to look upon.
The stature of these pigmy inhabitants of the
desert rarely exceeds four feet, or four feet two
inches. Thieves by profession, cruel and treach-
erous, without fixed babitaton, without society,
without any sort of common interest or govern
ment, and living only from day to day, and from
hand to mouth, they were objects of loathing to
neighboring tribes, even before Europeans had ap.
preached their country. The more civilized of the
Hottentot and Ksfirs waged deadly war against
them; and the sight of one of these diminutive
sayages is said to the passions of the race to
an uncomfortable fury. Many years since Rafir
saw in the Government House at Cape Town,
among other domestics, a Bushman eleven years of
age. With the impulse of a beast of prev, he
darted upon him and transfxed him with mis-
aggessa.
The little intelligence which the Bushmen pos
sess is displayed chiefly in robbery and the chase.
Rivalling the antelope in feetness and the monkey
In agility, they accompany their wild, half-fam-
ished, savage dogs until they come within bowshot
of their game, down the objects of their pur-
suit. Arrayed generally with bow, quiver full
OF arrows, hat and belt, leather sandals, a
sleeps fleece, gourd, the shell of an ostrich's
egg, to carry water, these puny creatures wander
over their parched and desoate plains, supported
by food which, unless when occasionally varied
