MIscEGENArIoN.-0ur pro-slavery neghbors
are Mortified at this new word and the idea which
it covers. They cannot look with composure on
the gradual bleaching out of the African race
and denounce all Abolitonsts as DESTROYS of
complete amalgamaton. But they are late with
their outcries the work of miscegenation has
been going on at the South for whole generations
Here is case which lately came to our knowl-
edge
W Fl. F. has just enlisted in a Massa-
chusetts regiment. He is as white as half the
white soldiers in our army, but in reality has a
mixture of African and Indian blood, and is the
son of white man. This white man, Samuel
Rector by name, living at Culpepper Court
House. and a member of the church there, is
both the father and grandfather of F., who
is the son of his sister by his grandfather That
is to say, Mr.. Rector first committed adultery
with of his slaves, then after a sufficient
length Of time committed incest with his daugh-
ter by his slave, and to crown the whole, when
the issue of his second conjunction in a
rebel prison at Richmond, he came forward and
testified against the young man to prevent his
being discharged with other prisoners.
When the Copperheads wish to give sermon
against amalgamation, advise them to 60 to
Culpepper, Virginia, and take Samuel Rector as
an ILLUSTRATION of the STANDARDIZATION Common
uedlh.
The W H. F. alluded to above is, we
have good reason to believe, William II. Foote,
formerly barber of this place and Shasta. He
left Weaverville somewhere about year ago,
with the intention of enlisting in the Union
army. The description is correct as
could have been given of Foote, who is a living
example of " miscegenaton " as practiced in
rebeldom.

CHINESE RAscALlrY.-The San Francisco Call
says: If any people under the sun deserve q
diploma for ingenuity, it is the Chinese; but it
should be accompanied by another, certifying
that their rascality is quite equal to their inven-
tive genius. We mentioned, recently, their
smart trick of the double jar by which to snug
gle opium. Since then, a still neater plan for
similar swindle has been discovered. For years
the Chinese have been importing what were, or
purported to be- 'pckled eggs y: eggs covered
with some sort of concrete, looking like as
phaltum, and about one-eighth of an inch thick
Within day or two six boxes of these eggs were
seized, it having been ascertained that they were
brass shells filled with opium, and covered with
the usual cement. Each egg is probably worth
two dollars. These are the kind of eggs with
which John settles his coffee, or makes Mon
ooliau omelet. What sleepy hen it must be
that LAYS such an egg The question arises, will
its chicken pipe its note now as usual since the
seizure? We are not sure whether it is of the
Sha nghai stock.
