A LITTLE BOY CUTS OFF HIS ARM TO
KEEP OUT OLE SCHOnL

Last Monday morning George Smith, boy
only seven years Old, residing at Pleasautville
~ miles from New York, told his parents il they
Insisted upon sending him to school that be

trick, which was near his fathers land, and
receive such injuries MS would compel them. to
keep him ut home. They thought nothing Of
the threat aud having ordered him to school

learned he had executed his menace. When
the ~ o'clock up mail train passed the village,
george laid bis left arm upon the track, and the
cars passed over it, seyering nearly the whole
Of his hand from the limb.
The engineer perceiVing him then for the first
time, stopped the train, when tue child ran off,
and was found with his ehattered aud bleeding
arm behind his back sitting on fence whistling
lankee Doodle and pretending nothing had
happened. Before he could be taken home
George tainted from pain and loss of blood,

ne refused most obstinately to take auy
anaesthetic agent, but told the medical GENTLE
man to cut away. The scalpel was used on the
mangled limb; Int the little fellow never
whimpered or compluined Not nerve trembed
uurlng the operation, which must have been
very painful indeed, the boy did not speak
until It was over, when he remarked with great
sausiactlon aud an mir of triumph :-"WelL 1
am glad did III can't be sent to school for

fal coolness, saying he first put his right arm on
the track, but rejecting that when he grew up

A Card.

Editors Union I'm reply to many
letters and inquiries from people in this
section of the country, the undersigned
take great pleasure in saying through the
columns Of your paper, that our rcnowp-
ed preparation known as GOES DYS-
PEPSIA CURE, is o certain cure for
Dyspepsia, in its worst stages. Many
cures Of long standing, withiug our own
acquaintance, have been completely, and
we believe permanently cured. II will
stop eating almost instanta- distress after
ncously, and enables the dyspeptic who
has lived for years upon Graham bread
and the plainest diet, to eat as heartily
as he pleases, and anything he chooses,
withoat danger Of distress, or souring, or
rising on the stomach. II is an infalli-
bic corrector of indigestion and consiipa-
ton, creates healthy appetite, stops
sick headache, heart burn, sickness OF
the stomach, pains, cramps, or collie in
either stomach or bowels, and sweeteps
offensive breath, as soon as you take ~,
and by enabling the patient to take plen-
ty of hearty food, (which is the parent OF
health,' produces vigor, strength and en-
ergy. In every trial we have knowns It
has speedily eradicatcd Dyspepsia with
all its attendant suferings, weaknesses,
debility, and loss of power, giving instead
proper activity and tone to the atom-
ache and organs of digestion, and as wo
confidently believe, and the published
certificates in our circulars, almanacs, and
in many Of the leading Journals, from
convalescent patients will confirm, COM
pletely, permanently, and almost miracu.
lously "cure the worst casesof Dyspep.
sia in existence" We warrant it in ey-
cry instance. It can be obtained at all
the Drug Stores in the United States and
Canadas, at 81 90 per bottle, or six bot
ties for $500. IS

venomous Fools.

The New York Tribune is persistent
in its demands that suffrage shall be cen
ferred upon the Blacks Of the South,
either through State action or by the
Federal Government. ItprUressesto be-
llevs that this furnished the Blacks the
only protection against their practical re-
enslavement: and, in this connection urges
that:
"There is much yet to be done at the
North a. well as at tho South, to consum-
mate true reconciliation and to bring
the country back to fraternity and settled
tranquility. There must bo forbearance,
generosity and largehearted conciliatiou.
The venomous fools who fancy that the
provost marshal and the hangman can do
all that remains undone to pacify the coun-
try are respectable in numbers only and
and even their numbers are daily dimin
ishing.'
It's Characterization Of the malignants
as venemous fools is good-good because
it accurately describes the brood.

gun to assume a very threatening aspect.
There evidently very bitter feeling Of

which only awaited q favorable moment

Already had several estates been burnt
by the torch of the incendiary, and so
deep aud silen. was the plot which had
been laid for carrying out the acts Of in
cendiarism that no clue TO the perpetra-
tors had as yet been discovered. AT
Guantanamo, where the first two fires 90.
cured, an overseer Of large property
had been murdered, aud two companies
Of troops had been sent thither from St,
Jago in order to repress any attempt at
rebellion. On tho departure from St
Jago, on the evening Of the 22d Of March,
Of the Jamaica packet, two large fires
we're plainly seen from her deck Little
doubt is entertained by our informant
that they will be found to have been ow-
ing to further acts Of incendiarism. Our

The Capture or MIR. Davis.

The capture Of Mr.. Jefferson Davis
will be considered an unmixed misfortune
by every thoughtful Ameican and by
every friend of America. 1t would be
impudent 10 express too strongly an opin-
ion which might be discredited in the
United States, because it is almost uni
versal in England but it is undoubtedly
true that the only party which could
profit by the perpetration Of great no
tional wrong would consist Of those who
wish to throw dscredit on the American
character. OF Mr., Jefferson Davis
claim to personal immunity no dispas
sionate reasoner can entertain doubt
He was the elected chief of confedera.

ernment was recognized as belligerent by
every power in the world, not excepting
the United States. He has been repeat.
edly visited by the agents of the Presi
dent, for the purpose of opening informal
negotiations, and within three or four
months his accredited ENJOYS were receiv
ed by Mr.. Lincoln under tho walls Of
Fortress Monroe. It has never yet been
decided that secession was illegal, though
the dominant party regard il as morally
criminal, and Is inconsistent with the
popular Interpretation ofthe Constitution
If, however, treason has been committed
