A Observation-Disclosures the
trouble "Jonbool" is giving himself about
the ''war in America" his Golfers the past
year give no sign Of depletion. In fact, his
exchequer seems to be more plethoric
than customary, and shows an excess of
income over expenditures of the sum of
three hundred thousand dollars. In this
satisfactory state of his finances ''Jonboor'
proposes to be magnanimous and, as is
said, really intends to apply that amount
towards the extinguishment of his debts.
To be sure it will not 60 great way. Blu,
still it is something. It at least indicates a
good purpose. 1t is s. beginning. 1twould

themselves by praying that they may live

that the interest is punctually paid!

CONVERSION ExTRAoRpINARy. One
cannot sufficiently admire the extreme and
delicate pity displayed for the maltreated
colored population OF this city by the En-
PRESS 1t being the avowed opinion Of tho.
journal that the blacks are of an infer0r
race, and can never hope III the presenceSs
lght-colored populations for social equalH
ty, it is all the more kind for the Erpre5'
to insist upon social justice in the prem
ses We cannot strongly enough set forth
our own rapture at finding in this newly
converted newspaper an abhorrence of the
"wanton cruelties to which the blacks Ot
New York were subjected during the RI
ots''-an adherence which we failed to mo-
tice in the same columns while the riots
were going on. 1t hardly appears to us
that man of true benevolence does HIM
self exact justice, or brings into sufficient
bold relief the costly charms of his consti-
tuition, who waits until the object Of hit-
sympathy has been hunted and bounded
and hung, and who then bursts into Sa-
marian and elegiac style OF editorial. We
do not see why men who in their hearts
hate the Negroes, and who are not in the
least disposed to do them substantial JUS
tice-who refuse to them religious or intel
lectual fraternity now, or the possibility Of
it in the future-Who are forever b0therng
about the curse of Canaan-we do not see
why these men, be they Editors or Minis
tiers, or Ethnologists, are called upon to la
ment that the aforesaid curse Of Canaan IS
extremely lively in these happy Hebrew
days. Cursed be Canaan-then why not
hang your black victims? Cursed be Ca
MANNHEIM why not drive poor Africans
from their humble houses3 Cursed be Ca
naan-then why not let slip the dogs of So
ciety upon the weak and detenseless =
What is the use of having Canaan cursed
if the lob be not done vigorously, effectu,
ally and scientifically? But if the salt o
the earth are to stand by, and cry with pity
while Canaan is undergoing his predestl-
nate lynching-why there is an end of all
their stoical patriotism, and they might as
well turn Abolitionists, and Black Repu1-
licans, and all that sort of thing at once .
We do most affectionately call upon oup
neighbors who have heretofore stood up
for the United States of America, against
the "Nigger," to stand firmly still in the
old position. We entreat them not to let
their remarkably fine feelings run away
with them! Let them keep a stern vlsage
and stiff upper lip, and vow and protest
and swear and roar, that If the Black htf.
been severely treated, he has been no more
severely treated than he deserved to be-
What does he stay around in this word
for7 Why doesn't he go somewhere, and
colonize, or do something? Why is he gul-
ty of the presumption of setting up in bu-
siness as human being? Why does b,
tlemen who despise him, and who are W.
used to the melting mood? II is very reI-|
rehensible.-N. Y. Tribune.

Another good un' is related of a representa-
tive from Faderland, who, last winter, having ex-
hausted all lis means in procuring food for his
furnishing cattle, called in at a store and was be-
wailing his fate TO the roprietOr-expresSing
the tear that his cattle must all die. He had 10
more money to buy grain and hay, and there was
none of these articles in the market
Why, my friend, f" said the proprietor, in good
high dutch, don't you know how to remedy
that ?"
Nix responded the desponding dairyman.
/" l can tell you then. Get some shavings and
place them in your cow-yard then 60 and get
some green spectacles and put them on your
COWS and they will eat the shavings thinking they
are grass"
"Yaw, that seems goot,' said the dairyman,
his eyes sparkling with delight at the prospect of
saving his cattle upon so economical plan, and
straightway he proct eded to hunt for the specta-
cles. He found the articles at various places;
but none of them seemed to suit his purpose. At
last he brought up at a store and made his inqui-
ry for Green schbecaclss." On examining the
stock, he found as elsewhere that they were all
too little" and expressed wish that he had
some (" Green class" so that he could manufacture
the articles he wished.
What do you wish to do with them p inquired
the storekeepgr
I" l wants to put EN- on mine cows to make EN-
eat shavin's NIT, so da won't schtarvep
