coins "In God we trust.S Who gave

intrude his theological creed upon his
fellow -citizens7 Who gave him the
right thus to claim for his faith the
sanction of the entire nation2 The
Constitution OF the United States, our
sacred aadg1lu ,cdart1, gives no such au-

men high in Office is but another in
stance of the lawlessness which has
been fountain and origin of all our re-

are not ashamed to profess a creed
which is generally regarded as narrow
and harsh. We are, however, satisfied
with the protection given our own lib
erty Of Conscience by the American
constitution, and have no wish to force
our creed upon others. One of the most
glorious distinctions of our republic is.
the absolute separation OF church and

Two Reporters Garrotted I'm Rich

Operators.
From The Richmond Times, Dec. ..
The devil is entirely loose in Rich
mond at last-horns, hoof, and all.-
Long as he confined himself to selling
bad whisky, playing faro, giving State
gold to people who don't deserve it,
making the negro equal to the Caucas-
sian, rtoting about town in company
with loose females, helping Northern
correspondents to tell fies about our
yeople, charging high rents, and prices
for gas and water most unwarrantable,
and other deviltries, dishonesties, and
indecencies, we cOntrived somehow to
0ontront said demon and hold our own,
but at last we are c5oked o1, for on the
night before last two Of our hapless,
helpless, hopeless reporters were aasRil-
ed, assaulted, and attacked about eleven
O'Clock, on Broad street, between Nine
teenth and Twentieth, by four, men
tbrutes, we should say,) and one boy,
VINO from one W. of the Dispatch,
took bunch of reportorial paper, and
from one c., of the Times, took a
was all the funds they had. l
In brief, We were garroted in the most
approved style. Suddenly seized
around the throat, head bent back,
mouth and nose tightly stopped, and
then our clothes .'gone through" +" The
oPeraLloni we should suppose, lasted
about three minutes, which was only
put a stop to by tho near approach Of
half dozen couple of ladies and gem
tlemen on the opposite side of the
street. The Introductory ceremony was
for one of the five garroters to step out
from the alley running in the rear of
Mr.. John Greanor's premises, on Broad,
between Nineteenth and Twentieth
streets, to the pavement, and inquire of
the Times reporter the time of night,
but before giving him time to reply the
whole lot sprang out and waded in in
made, to ttbite the dust ~ but not So
with our conJrere of the Dispatch : he
was gently graded in the gutter, and
there passiEely submitted to the ordeal
which he was compelled to undergo.
Poor fools, they weres to garrote report
ers!r In conclusion, all we have to say
is, let the rascals try it again, and then
see what We'll do. H5fi 80 III
