cruel treatment of child by its mother,
says: " The child certainly should have the

INGENUITY OF A CHINESE TALOR.-A
clergyman Of Lord Macartney's embassy,
whose cassock was so extremely patched
aud darned that he could no longer wear
It with dccency, having applied to a
tailor in Canton for new one, received
shortly afterwards the new cossock with
every darn and patch SO accurately true
to tie old pattern that nothing but the
greater strength Of new cloth could de-
ternline the one from the other; the
tailor having unluckily conceived that
the darns and patches were SO many en-
blems Of the clergyman's profession. This
anecdote is given by Barron as an illus.

The Contest in Kentucky.

Major General Rousseau is the Union candidite
for Congress in the Louisville District, and has
entered upon active campaign before the peo-
pie. The district gave Mcclellan a large MAORI
ty. bat the contest now is OF different character,
all other questions being swallowed uo in that of
the adoption or rejection of the Constitutional
Amendment by Kentucky. The city of Louisv lille
was saved from capture in 1861 by the iorethought
and courage of Rousseau, and We cannot i'm igire
that its citizens will fail to embrace the first op
portunty that has offered to reward him. The
Louisville Journal, which advocated the election
OF General Mcclellan, is battling earnestly for
the Amendment, and many influential citizens who
were Democrats a few months ago, giving their
influence for the constitutional destruction Of
slavery.
In the Second District, Hon. George III. Yea
nun, member of the last Congress, is candi-
date for recollection. He also supported McClel
Lad for the Presidency, but cutting loose from par
ty affiliations, is making the present canvass in ia
vor OF tie Amendment and is doing excellent SER
vice.
General Speed 5. Fry, the hero of Mill Spring,
is the Union candidate in the Lexington District,
and General Green Clay Smith in the Covington
District The Union party are represented by
able men, and we shall be surprised if Kentucky
does not pronounce in favor of the complete abo-
tion of slavery at the approaching August eiec
tion.-Iad. Jour.

The South Must be Just to the
Negro.

There is ono way in which the defeated white
rebels of the South can certainly settle the ques-
ton Of negro suffrage, and that is by attempting to
evadc or disregard the proclamatioas giving free
dom to tie slaves, and by cruel and brutal treat
ment of the colored population. The people of
the loyal portion of the United States have deter
mined with singular unanimity that the late slaves
shall be free, and that their freedom shall be actu
al and not sham.-If they are to be shot like
dogs, mutilated and driven frem their homes. as
is related by a correspondent OF the New York
Times from Alabama, or subjected TO worse indig-
mites and outrages than when in State ofsayery.
as is now charged to be the case in Richmond, the
question Of giving them the ballot for their own
protection will admit of no question. The Nation
has decreed the death of slavery, and now that the
armed rebellion which was waged in its interest
has been subdued the people will not cons ent that
it shall be re-established in any form, that the
blacks oftl e south who have been the steadfast
friends of the national cause, shall be made the
victims of the hate borne by subiugated rebels to
their conquerers If the Southern white people
have any worldly wisdom they will fully recognize
the right Of their late slaves to liberty, and reas
enable wages for their labor;

we'd bv at least two witnesses, and leaves it to be
