The "headaches" of early childhood

more than ever alive to the fact that

prettiest feature of child life was not n

real child nature. Martyrs to the van

A Tenpernnce Lecture.

Six years ago, one of the leading men in the
United States Senate, was James Green,
of Missouri. Every observer of passing
events in the political history of the coun-
try, will remember bis signal triumph in
bad cause, during the debate on the Lecomp-
ton question. He was the only man who, by
common consent, got the upper hand of
Douglas in that memorable discussion, and
but for him the Soutberners would have
made poor showing just then. There
seemed to be bright future opening for
him, but like too many others similarly sit
uated, he thought no man could rise in the
world Of politics, without passing a good
deal of time in tho bar-rooms Of Washing
ington. To day. as ! was walking down
Pennsylvania avenue, passed a wretched
looking man, stupidity drunk, his face hor-
ribly disfgured, as if he had just emerged
from n street fight, both his eyes blackcned
and swollen, his clothing covered with mud
and dirt-the cynosure of all eyes, and the
laughing stock of ofshoe-blacks. | asked who

The Barbarian of slavery.

[From the Ililsboro Ohio, Newsl
We were invited round to the Provost
MarshaPs Office last week to see "contra-
band" who recently escaped from North
Carolina, with about 100 others, and made
their way to Gen. Burtridges lines near
Saltville, Va. He came here to enlist and
on being stripped for examination, his body
presented spectacle which excited the
horror, pity and indignation Of the officers,
and of all who saw it. His arms and legs
were literally knotted with scars from the
teeth of bloodhounds which had torn him
when attempting to escape, while his body
was scanned with welts like whip-cords,
caused by the overseer's brutal lash. Such
sight we never saw before, and it would
have removed all doubt, had any existed in
our mind, Of the truth of the many stories
we had read of Southern barbarism and
cruelty to the downtrodden slave, The
man was about 20 years old, but was under
the minimum hight for a soldier, and there
fore was not enlisted, but the Marshal hui
namely furnished him some new clothes to
replace his tattered garments, and gave him
some good advice as to making "A wise use
of his newly acquired liberty, by forming
industrious and temperate habits, after
which he went on his way rejoicing.
