A FEMALE IMPosroR.-Tho Ohio State
Journal is informed of a woman who has
been visiting the citizens eff Mt. Vernon
and other places, recently, soliciting mon
ey for the Columbus Soldiers Aid Society.
She is described as plain, ordinary-look-
ing person, of doubtful age, and genteelly
dressed. She makes simple statement
that the society is unable to provide all the
delicacies necessary to supply the sick
soldiers in the hospitals in Columbus, and
that she is collecting money for that pur-
pose.
She met with decided success in Mt.
Vernon, and stated that after the State
Fair, she proposed making a professional,
philanthropic visit to this cito. Doubtless
we shall be happy to meet her.

The New Conscription Bin.

Congress succeeded, late on Saturday night
in perfecting the new Conscription bill. I'm
der this act, drafts may be made for one, two or
three years; bounties of 500, $500, and $500,
are to be awarded for one, two and three years
service respectively. Communication is no more;
but every one drafted may serve in person or
by substitute, and fifty days notice must be
given before enforcing thedraft. Each State is
at liberty TO obtain substitutes in the States in
insurrectien and have them credited on her
quota.
We trust now that our Democratic friends for
once are pleased When the first act was pass
ed, the $500 Communication was their chief
ground Of objection to it. Their organs fairly
howled at the idea of compelling the poor to
serve and letting off those rich enough to pay
$780, Their great objection to the $500 COM
mutation clause has had much to do with its re-
peal, and it is now to be presumed that if any Of
them are drafted they will cbeerfully go OF
esserd a hand Z"

What Slavery Still Does.

To boast and resolve that slavery is dead
in this country so long as Congress refuses
to amend the Constitution so as to bury it
out of sight forever, or to organize new
Territory in the far Northwest without in
serting the word white before citizens in the
fundamental law as in the case of Montana,
is premature to say the least. To those
who profess to believe that slavery is dead
and that no further efforts are required for
its total extirpation, we commend consid-
Grafton of the following incident which re-
Gently took place in Delaware, as vouched
for by the N. Y. Tribune:
The Rev., Thomas W. Kinnard, of the
British Methodist Episcopal Church of
Canada, and delegate from Canada to the
General Conference of the African Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, which this year
heldits quadrennial session in Philadel phia,
visited his birthplace in Delaware recently.
While at Camden, he was arrested early
in the morning under one of the laws
which still disgrace the statue-books of
Delaware, prohibiting eolored persons from
entering it. He was fined $50 and costs.
Not having the money to pay, he was sold
and purchased by brother ofthe man who
had emancipated him some years ago.
This man took Mr.. Kinnard's due bill for
the amount he payed, and gave $50 securi-
ty that Mr.. Kinnard would leave State in
five days.
MIR. Kinnard Immediately went to Wash
ington to seek redress, bringing with him a
transcript from the record of legal proceed
ings, duly certified, and copies of due bills,
&C.; also letters to the representatives of
Delaware in the House.
Being British subject, and having pro-
vincial papers to show that he was under
the Queens protection, he naturally made
the facts in the case known to Lord Lyons
the British Minister at Washington, who
assured him that satisfaction should be
SOUGHT.

The First Lie of the Campaign.

On the morning after Andy Johnson
was nominated, the Washington Con-

the Cincinnati Enquirer (Copperhead) re-
published ridiculous story that Andy
Johnso
"Has an old mother more than seventy
years of age, who he allows to traverse the
streets of Philadelphia with basket on
her arm, selling tripe for a living. Ye,
who have hearts, only think of this, man,
