SENSIBLE CLERGYMEN.-A least one
hundred ministers representing the German
Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Pennsylva-
MIA and adjacent States were in session re-
Gently at Easton, Pa, transacted all their
business and adjourned without saying one
word about the negro Or anything of po-
litical character The Synod confined itself
to its legitimate duties and separated with
the kindliest feelings. 1t is refreshing to
look upon such body of men. How much
more honorable, creditable and Christianlike
is such conduct than that exhibited by some
other religious bodies, where fanaticism and
blood thirsty persecution is the order of the
day,

ACCOMMODATING. There are some

ACCOMMODATING. There are some re-
markably accommodating men in this world
A few years ago, they denounced abolition
lists and declared they would never give the
least favor to their schemes; but their lead
ers carried them along until they made them
oppose the ending of the war until slavery
had been destroyed. The same leaders are
now for giving the negroes an equality of
political and civil rights with the whites ;
and this the accommodating men declare
they will never submit to. Yet, they stick
to their leaders and look piteous and think
of the days when they used to be Wings and
could look men in the face, because they
had honest principles. Verify, these men
have hard lot, they cannot stand the negro
vote, but their masters have agreed to cover
the matter up at present, and they will go
the ticket this year as if the niger was not
in it and next year they will say that they
were always in favor of negro suffrage. =
Very useful men, very.

MARTIN LUTHER HENDERSON, son of JAS.
HENDERSON, was SO terribly wounded and
crushed at the oil well on Mr. Lines fan M
that he died the next day. Through curl
osity the boy visited the well. While the
engine was elcvating the drill he thought
lessly placed his hand upon the rope,
which instantly caught him and drew him
in between the rope and the windless, the
rope passing aroung him three times, first
over the top of his head taking off the entire
scalp; secondly around the lower jaw, frac-
turing itand knocking out some of his teeth;
thirdly around his neck and over his chest,
crushing the parts beneath. Besides these
injuries he was terribly bruised over the
whole body and one bone of his leg broken -
The weight Of the drill and its appendages
was estimated at from fifteen to eighteen
hundred pounds.

A NEGRO DoDGE.-Last winter the leg

are refused they remind the landlords of

A Word TO THE WIsE.-A contemporary
very truthtully says, now is the time to push
true Democratic papers in every direction,
for it is only by sowing sound seed that we
can hope for good harvest. Democrats
too often wait until Just before election be-
fore they begin to circulate their papers,
and that is generally too lute. Abolition
tares have sprung up and the good seed will
not take root. Reader, if you have a De-
mocratic neighbor, or one who is mod
crate Republican, don rest until you have
induced him to take Democratic paper

Governor on the negro suffrage question !;
but although the letter was placed in his
hands more than three weeks ago, no an

are that it will remain unanswered. The
Oberlinites, black and white, are satisfied
that he is in favor of negro suffrage-havng
received all the assurance to that effect they
want; while the Cincinnati Commercial, and
