Nonsense! Does not the Journal know
that mason and SLIDEIL, two of the most

seats in London, not long ago, at gem

side by side with q big black, greasy
African ambassador from Hayti, and

The Detroit Advertiser says that Prof.
J. f. Fearl of that city lived in Nashville
when Tennessee seeded. Gen. Wash
ington Barrow was one Of the Vigilance
Committee who warned him TO leave on
account Of his Union sentiments. The
other day Mr. Fearl called upon him and
comPl'mented him upon his arrest, and the
changes which the fortunes Of civil war
had brought about. The General receiv-
ed the Professors compliments with as
good grace as he could command for the
occasion but il must have been severe
trial for him to meet the object of his
wrath in the City Of Straits, ian hon
orable and esteemed citizen, while he is
prisoner, with the finger Of all loyal
men pointed towards him as a traitor TO
the cause of the Union, which our hon.
ored fathers shed their warm blood TO
cement

This staple continues to come in freely.
Hon. ALLEN A. HALL informs us that he
issued permits for near 1900 bales up to

and violence Of rebel mArauding bands
this quantity would be increased enor-

much more needed by the producers of

HANGED IN EFFIGY. - An abolition
minister, named d. ID. Parker, was hang
ed in effigy at the village. Of Natural
Bridge, in the county Of Jefferson, N. T.,
on the evening Of the 18th instant, by the
citizens Of that very loyal and eonserya-
tive place, for preaching undiluted aboli-
tiOnism. The eiiigy was suspended from
a gallows projected from the main part
of She Methodist Episcopal Church, fall
ing but few feet short of reaching the
altitude Of Humans. On the breast of
the efigy was the following terse, ex-
planatOry epitaph: sd. D. Parker, the
bald AbOlitionist, Hypocrite, and Ira
ducer.' IL would seem that elerico-pO-
litical renegades meet with a very cpl
