In 1889 the editor of the Mexican Time,
was in England, and now he relates in
Mexico the following incident:
Arriving rapidly up the Strand, we
met a man walking very briskly, whom
we took to be our friend Prescott, the
aforesaid sugar broker. Passing our arm
over the reins, we stopped the Hansen,
leaped out and Immediately overlook him.
Walking side by side with him for
some distance, and having eyed him for
some time very closely, we were sure that
we had our man; 80, turning sharply
around we slapped him heavily upon the
shoulder and said;
How arc you, my fellow7 You don't
know me, do your

stare and said:
"No, sir; 1 don't know you"
ave gave him another familiar slap
and said:

Don't you recollect our balls at Brules
Landing? Look at me well. Don't you
With great sang JrOid he replied at
once:
No, sir, 1 have never been at Baton
Rouge; I don't know Dan. Hickey; 1
don't know anything about your balls at
Brule's Landing; l have looked at you
WE'LL don't know A"
"Now this was a sumner. We drew
back, and thinking that he might possibly
be a brother of our sugar man, we said:
"Sir, be kind enough to tell me your
name"
HE said quietly;
"My name is Palmerston.p

Gtving cooler % An Inferenee."

Mr. Adams in his aba aarraspsaasncs
with Lord C~larendoh, says that certain
language Of the latter gives color to an
~izferenes" which he is not slow to draw.
Could the father Of our Minister to Eng
land have read the letters OF his son, he
would undoubtedly have corrected this
questionable phrase and would have Illus
trated his criticism upon it by 8 reference
to one Of the most important and ex-
citing scenes of mis- " life, when his
sarcastic reference to an almost precisely
similar phrase in a resolution eOndemna-
tory of himself annihilsted the resolution
and its mover. The circumstances were
these: John Quincy Adams having left
the Presidential chair, had accepted a seat
in the House of Representatives, whichhe
made ilustrious. The anti-slavery agita-
ton had just broken out, and Mr.. Adams
inaugurated it in Congress by the
presentation of petition after petit
ton for the abolition of " the sum of
all villainies.p This he did not merely as
an anti-slavery man, but in defense of the
sacred right of petition. 1t curiously
illustrates the progress and change of
public opinion on the slavery question,
that thirty years ago the introduction Of
of petitions for the abolition of
slavery, aroused in Congress the
greatest Indignation, excitement and
denunciation. Not sven the command
ing intellect and venerable age of Mr..
Adams could protect him, and the ex-
citement reached its c~ulmination when
the Il old man eloquent" coOlly presented
to Congress a petition from sIaoes. The
House was thrown into Undesirable con-
fusion at the unheard Of Rudacity of the
"member from Massachusetts" Motions
to expel him, to censure him, to burn the
petition, and q dozen others, were made
in the same breath. The n which
finally gained precedence was that Of Mr..
DromgoOle of Virginia, which was 10 the
effect that whereas Mr.. Adams, by present.
ing a petition from slaves, had agiven
color to the idea that slaves were citizens,
he should receive q censure from
the Speaker in the presence of the House
of Representatives. When this motion
came before the House, the following scene
occurred, as described by a contemporary
writer:
"when Mr.. Dromgool's resolution was
read to the House for its consideration, Mr..
Adams yielded to it one Of the sarcastic
sneers which he was in the habit Of giving,
when provoked to satire, and said, Mr..
Speaker, if 1 understand the resolution of
the gentleman from Virginia, it charges me
with being guilty Of giving color to an idea"
The House burst forth into uncontrollable
peals5of laughter. Mr.. Dromgool's motion
was actually laughed out of existence"
Mr.. Adams son should be familiar
enough with his fathers history to avoid a
blunder which was Of such service to him.

STARK COUNTY.


The Canton Republican says: The pro-
ject of a railroad from Canton to Cleve-
land ria Kent has awakened a lively in
terest among u citizens. The fact that
a prominent and influential officer of the
Atlantic & Great Western railway
strongly favors the enterprise reflects great
promise upon the undertaking. A meet
ing of citizens was held at the Probate
Judges office IN Monday night to take
the matter into consideration. All pres
ent favored such an immediate investiga-
tion into the matter as would yield q pro-
per basis of action. Messrs. John Banner,
G. Aultman and E. Ball were appointed a
Committee to take such action, on behalf

ssry in the premises.

Do. MorrIIT,. TinaneIaI Mea.ure


Mr.. Morrill,, of Vermont, Chairman of
the House Committee on Ways and
Means, has introduced Into the House
E Of Representatives bin anthor-
king Secretary McCulloea to issue
bonds, bearing interest at six per cent,
payable, both principal and interest, in
coin, in not more than forty years from
date. The provisions of the bill have
already been laid before our readers. We
certainly hope that with the proper
undoubtedly Be made by the committed
70 whom It has been referred, the bill will
pass. It's action will do more to inaugur-
ate a gradual, steady, and secure return to
specie payments than any other scheme
which has yet been suggested. The pro-
posed bonds will, of course, only be used
for the purpose of redeemng grcenbacks
and compound interest notes, and thus in
reducing the volume Of currency. The
New York Evening Post suggests amethod
BY whiehthe currency may be almost left
TO reduce ITSELF which is, we think,
worthy Of attention. It argues that the
surest way Of accomplishing this object
is by the exchange of grsenbacks for
compound interest notes. These notes,
when first issued, are Of equal value with
greenbacks, and are passed from hand to
hand like other notes. Gradually, how
ever, as the interest accumulates, they are
given out reluctantly, and finally, as they
grow corpulent with added interest, and
the computation of their value becomes
complicated problem, they withdraw
themselves from circulation, and are
boarded away as Investments. But in
order that this method of reducing the
currency may be successful, it is necessa-
~ that the Secretary of the Treasury
should have authority to exchange United
States bonds for these notes as they ma
ture and are presented. If this is done,
this class Of notes, which has almost i'm
p~erceptibly withdrawn itself from c~ircula-
ton, will not be permitted to re-enter it.
but the volume of the currency viii DO
diminished by its redemption. The pro-
posed bill will give this authority to the
Secretary Of the Treasury, and we hope it
ma be passed.

Moahy &c Partisan.

All loyal persons viii be glad to know
that the Government is evincing sdisposi-
sion to bring to trial and punishment those
guerrilla chiefs who, during the rebellion,
wers the sOOurge Of regions adjacent to the
treatre of war. The fact that such men
generally confined their operations to
points within supporting distance of the
rebel army, proved tho responsibility Of
the rebel authorities for the system Of
guerrilla warfare; but does not entitle
guerrillas to the treatment due regular
soldiers, for they were notin the actual en-
ploy Of even 4 rebel government. Mosby,
the famous partisan" as his admirers
term him-who made himself a terror to
loyal men in Virginia-having recently
been arrested by order OF the Government,
both the Northern and Southern rebel
press have raised & plaintive wall in his
behalf. Gould these self-constituted pa
triots be believed, Mosby was a soldier of
honor ind an authorised eHSsF-ef tho
HConfederate States" The New York
Nesub in commenting upen the specif-
cation against Mosby-which is moth
ing less than the killing of two Fed
eral soldiers in retaliation for the
execution Of two Of his marauders-says,
in Justification Of the crime, there were
Hmany similar instances Of retaliation on
Ethe part Of Federal commanders" This
logic would place the Government Of the
United States IN a par with the authority
Of any freebooter who could surround
himself by a half-dozen followers-would
make q clan Of guerrillas as respectable as
the authorized army Of q nation. Mosby
evidenced his Independence Of the rebel
authorities when be refused to surrender
after the whole of the rebel troops east of
the Mississippi had submitted themselves
to the authority Of the Federal Govern
ment. Instead of acquiescing in the
surrender Of General Lee, he acted npon
his own responsibility, maintaining his
organization until the dispersion of john
ston 8 forces rendered such a courselonger

avowed his absolute authority over the
men under his command; and now he
cannot put inthe poor ples made by Wirz
and other rebel murderers, that he is
protected by the terms Of surrender
agreed upon by Lee and Grant or John
lton and Sherman. Mosby essayed to act
for himself. He refused t ODE governed by
the rules of war. He would not surrender
and accept a parole. He diHbanded his
followers only when to retain them longer
would have puthis lite in serious jeopardy.
Now let him reap the reward of his savage

A CURIOUS PHRASE
Here is q curious fact, in the history of
book-making, which 1 can not refrain from
writing. In the dedication to President
johnson, Of DR.. Hollands admirable and
truthful life Of Lincoln, there is the fol-
lowing language: with the PRAYER that
History, which viii associate their names
forever, may be able to find no seam where
their Gdnsnistr atoms Were Joined, and
marx 40 change of texture BY which they
may be contrasted." On reading this. r
Immediately concluded that the author
really intended, in the language 1 have
ltalicised, an allusion to the early life of
The present Executive, and, while express
ing a doubt as to the good taste OF such an
allusion in a dedicatory page, 1 was as
'ured BY an intimate friend of DR.. Hol-
and, that not only had he no intention of
l double eateHdrs when he wrote the dedi-
,ation, but that the fear, which had since
occurred to him, that such a construction
you'd be put upon the language, had
.hagriDed him very much. He did not
hinkof it in this light, however, until the
lrst edition had been printed and bound.
