FooL.-David British. of Seneca county,
Ohio, recently sat down on q railroad
track when a train was coming, to see if
he could mt make the train stop. The
whistle was blown, the brakes put on, but
the train could mt be stopped in time.
British intended to jump off the track just
before the engine reached him ; but was
not quick enough, however. and was
knocked over. run over, and had both
legs cut of at the thighs for his damn
foolery.

A CUTTING ARGUMENT. - The Mobile
Tribune urges Southern men to qualify
themselves to vote. asa measure Of self
protection. It says:
We can only acquire rights BY the use
of the means prescribed by the law; and
the essential qualification for this purpose
is the right of suffrage. A little while ago
the musket was the arbiter. Now it is
the ballot-box. We cannot resume the
gun, and without that, or with it, how can
we better protect ourselves than BY the
ballot. and not the cartridge-boxi We
should like some learned philosopher to
tell US how it can be better done than by
the mode that we suggest.

ruNERAL or oINERAL WRIGHT,

The funeral of General Wright and
wife, on Saturday last, was . noticeable
affair, and / believe there are now few
who will claim that the honors paid the
gallant old soldiers memory were not
well deserved. Mistakes he may have
made; he may have been too lenient with
traitors in the hour Of u country's peril,
but his heart was in the right place, and
his action while in command of the De-
partment Of the Pacific is now generally
conceded to have saved US from the hor-
rors Of civil war. 1t was a matter Of
serious regret that his son, Col. Wright,
now absent with his regiment on duty,
could not be here to participate in the last
sad ceremonies. In connection with the
funeral a nice little bit Of scandal has be-
come public. The funeral was originally
appointed for Friday, and none but Off
GERS Of inferior rank, militia officers and
civilians, were designated as pail bearers
BY Gen. Mcdowell. The day was chang
ed to Saturday without assigned notice,
and a new set Of pail bearers announced.
The story goes that on the receipt Of the
order by Gen. Halleck, q note was sent
by the latter to Gen, Mcdowell, which
was couched in language not at all COM
%plimentary. It notified Gen. Mcdowell,
in very curt terms, that Gen. Halleck pre-
sented his compliments to Gen. Mcdowell,
and informed him that he-Gen. Halleck
proposed to act as one Of the pail
bearers himself, and that he expected Gen.
Mcdowell to be another. This version of
the affair is generally accepted among
military men, and the fact that the names
Of both Generals appeared In the new list

From The Kingston &c. w American.
he CnIminafion of N ickedncs

1t appears from a proclamation of reward now
offered for Mr. Jefferson Davis, G. G.. Clay,
George ". Sanders, acob Thompson and w T.
Clearv, that the government OF the United
States have indubitable evidence that the parties
above named are all guilty of conspiracy against
the life of Presiden, Lincoln. For the secure
ment of Davis 800. 900 is offered; for Sanders
and Claw S25 900 each, and for the rest OF the
parties SIC. 900 each. This announcement has
taken the country by surprise. Whatever may
have been the estimate of Mr.. Davis and his
government, there are few indeed who would
have believed him guilty of entertaining such a
wanton, %cowsrdly and villainous thought as the
cold -blooded destruction of the president of the
United States
He was usually regarded as being far too high
minded to be actuated by any motive of such b
gross character, and should there be no mistake
about the available testimony said to be against
him, the name of the rebel president, destined to
be cherished in the hearts of many, must sink
into profound infsmy and derision. and 60 to pos
terity arm in arm with j. Wilkes Booth, the as
sassin Of good President Lincoln. But what
must we say of those gentlemen who have been
enjoying the hospitality of Canada-Sanders,
Thompson, Clay 4 Co. Will even this revela-
ton give some of our people a proper apprecia
ton of these gentlemen
We almost despair OF such being the case after
the olaek record against them already forgiven
Let the evidence be sIfted aud weighed, and il
there is no mistake, as We have a right TO assume
