EVERY newspaper that doesn't agree
with the radicals, is called by them a
reconstructed rebel sheet and Union
men who refused to aid in the passage
of the infamous, unconstitutional, dis
franchise bill, are said to be in league
with the rebels. Their course reminds
us of something that occurred in Vir'
giuia during the war. One of the boys
of o regiment stole a box OF sardlnes
from Captain Brooks. Brooks was ours
ing the man who stole his sardines. A
soldier standing by with tho sardines in
bis pocket, shouted ont; Bully for
Captain Brooks I say damn any man
who'd steal a box of sardines." So with
these radicals. They are the disunion-
lists, doing all they can TO retard the
work Of Cancellation, yet crying out
that all are rebels who don't submit to
their will. They have the sardines in
their pockets.

that he was eudeGvOring TO make his
escape under preteuse Of going to

well, and we think it right, but do Eot have any
sympathy with that class whose disheyeled locks

mai of the fnny tribe hes been seen in the
Big Slough, above the railroad bridge and
has been an object of great attraction. Two
or three persons have shot at it, and others
have gone out in skiffs to try and find it,
The creature, at times, seems to be floating
on the surface and presents proportions near
ly equal to whale hippopotamus, or an
alligator. 1t ia probable that some huge al
ligator from the lower Mississippi or the
swamps of Arkansas may have worked i.s
way up here and taken up his quarters in the
Big Slough. An effort will be made to solvs
the mystery. In the meantime we would
suggest to people that go bathing in that
quarter that it is not altogether safe, for thew
might come off minus foot, an arm, or DOS.
