Eastern Exchange:
AS the train from the South on the
N.CR.R., was waiting its usual time
at the depot, yesterday, a party OF
blatant MeClellanites passed through
one of the cars after q fes Meeting
an old gentlemen, citizen of Balti-
more, he was asked his preference
for President. He named Lincoln:
But" said he, II have Eve nephews
in the army who each prefer McClel

with applause at this announcement
When ole of the viper, congratu-
lsted the old Baltimorean upon the
choice of his nephews, and inquired
" under what General are your
nephews making targets of them
selves 2? imagine the surprise which
struck the Cops as the old man calmly
but sarcastically replied Gen Robert
E. Lee An audible litter ran
through the cars as the Cops hur-
riedly left the train.

THE THEoRY OF SLAVERY.

Slaves to hsurrset ion
lFron the Nashville Union.

>
Let every citizen, especially al
non slave holders, read carefully the
following extract from the Cincinnati
..Endnirer:'' -
"The protection Of white men
against slavery does not practically
consist in principle, but in facts
They will not. like negroes, consent
to,he reduced to a state of bondage.
| n we had among us s race Of men Of
| our own color, with the spirit TO sub
NIT. capable Of labor. but without
ambition or enterprise, humble, do
cjle and Anxible, there would be
found no pr no pie sufficiently potent
TO stand in the wav of their enslave-
ment. We shonld have our theories
upon the subject IS rational as those
thas are founded upon the misbsis-
vior OF Ham aud the maudlin mo-
rality Of his exemplary parent. But
the Europeo American win not be
ensfsved any more than the native
American. He would kick against
his bonds. become turbulent, incen-
diary and desperate. He would rise
10 force upon his master, or over
come him . by his superior iutelli-
gence. He would refuse to be CO.
erced,-would combine for rebel
lion" III
Now let US take up the points Of
this remarkable paragraph:
There is no principle, no rule Of
right and wrong, which keeps white
men in this country out Of slavery !
1t is simply fact that white men are
not slaves. The reason why white
men are not slaves is because you
cannot enslave them; il you could do
it, it would be exactly right!
Slavery is all right. but it is based,
not on Justice but power; if you can
ensfave anv man, do it, It would not
be safe now to try to make slaves Of
white men; they would be turbulent
and Desperate and raise insurrec
tons .--..t
But as soon as we can find a class
OF white men "humble, docile and
flexible" then there. will be no prin-
ciple sufficiently potent to stand in
the wav Of their ehsrfteme1tr
We think that we can see the eyes
Of the sturdy soldiers of Indiana,
Ohio: Illinois, Kentucky, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania
and Kansas, sparkle and glow with
indignation. as they read this Con
servative" doctrine of the Cincinnati
..Enquirer'-the newspaper which q
few nlontls ago told the Ohio sol
Iiiers that their wives were frrning
prostitutes while they we're od fight
no for the Union. WHAT these
men will ask, ''are the advocates of
slavery so bold as this, that they do
sot hesitate to tell us that all which
Iaves US from slavery is tlat we are
lot quite humble, 3ocile, nexible
nough 2 Is that all the protection
or orr own freedom is that ali the
uzrantee which our children can
ave against slavery, with it's whips,
fetters and debsucherfes?

wThe election in Gallipol's on
list Tuesday, passed offvery quietly,
and without any excitement. Whis-
key being ..tabooed," of course De,
niocracy found itself out of its usual
cement. If any one ever doubted
tie wisdom Of the law prohibiting it
to lie sold. bartered, or given away
on election dsys, the proceedings of
last Tuesday would convince him.
- The polls opened very early. A
dense fog prevailed for some time,
rendering it difficult to distinguish
objects across the street. A long
established Democratic rule is. "to
be at the polls early" Many of our
.Copperhead friends followed up this
rule very closely, quite regardless of
the fog. Some ''blue jackets iocose-

good word to children:

Juvenile heart to have ones darlings snub-

The little ones have their tragedies and com

love, marry, keep house, have children, have
weddings and funerals, and dig graves for
dead mice in the garden, and mourn into
small white handkerchiefs, and get brother

its tiny board.

renowned for his ability to make and take

FIVE DEATHS AT TIME.-A French
man resolved to get rid of life, went little
before high tide, to post by the seaside
He had provided himself with a ladder, a
rope, pistol bundle of matches and a
vial of poison. Ascending the ladder, he
tied one end to the post, and the other end
around his neck, then he took the poison,
set his clothes on fire, put the muzzle of his
pistol to his head, and kicked away the lad
der. In kicking down the ladder, he
snapped the pistol SO that the ball missed
his head and cut the rope by which he was
suspended he fell into the sea, thus extin-
gushing the flames of his clothes, and the

nr rur AnKANsAs N1anr1NaALB.

BY THE ARKANSAS NIGHTINGALE.
Sam johnson was a bachelor
f.aos Who lived down by the sea;
He owned a rat tan tarrier
That stood bout one foot three
And the way that creature ehawed up rats
Was gopuss for to see.
One day the dorg was slumberin'
Behind the kitchen stove,
When suddenly wicked flea
ugly little cove
Commenced upon his faithful back
With many jumps to rove.
Then up arose that tarrier,
With frenzy in his eye,
And waitin' only long enough
To make O touchin' cry,
Commenced to twist himself around
Most wonderfully spry.
But all in vain his shape was SIGH
So awful short and fat
That though he doubled up hissef,
And strained hisself at that,
His mouth was half an inch away
From where the varmint sat.
Tho dorg set up an orful howl.
And twisted like an eel,
Emitting cries of misery
- At every nip he'd feel,
And tumblin' down and jumpin up,
And turnin' like wheel.
But still that most owdacious flea
Kept up constant chaw
Just where ne couldn't be scratched out
By any reach of paw,
And always half aninch beyond
His victims snaPpn' jaw.
Sam johnson heard the noise and came
To save his animile
But when he the critter spin
f. gI barkin all the while
He dreaded hydraphobia,
And then began to rile.
T" The pup is mad enough, says he,
And luggin in his ak,
He gave the rechid tarrier
a pair of awful cracks,
That stretched him out upon the floor,
AS dead as carpet tacks.
MORAL.
Take warnin' by this tarrier,
Now turned to sassdge meat;
And when misfortunes flea shall come
Upon your back to eat,
Beware our you may die because
You can't make both ends meet.
