condition, the only possible chance for any
thing approaching external peace or order
would be in physical as well as legal amalga-
nation but as the mulatto or mongrei pro
geny dies out within a certain limit, this, of
course, would render impartial freedom
just as impossible as ever.
1t is thus absolutely and obviously certain
that so-called slavery is the normal condition
of the negro, for he multiplies, and there
fore absolutely certain that mongrelism is
wrong, for both white and negro die out
wherever it is attempted.
The case then stands Just thus Abraham
Lincoln, representing the northern States,
took possession Of the common government
created for the common good Of the States,
and stood pledged to pervert it into an in
strument for forcing the southern States into
mOngrelism, and thus to bring upon the peo-
pie a social as well as political destruction so
awful, that in comparison, it were better the
earth opened its bosom and engulfed them
The endangered States seeded, gave up every
thing held in common by the States, and
only asked to be let alone and save them
selves from a social ruin so monstrous, hor-
rible and irreparable as that involved IN the
impious and monstrous effort to set aside the
order of nature and equalize widely separa-
ted species of human kind
In conclusion, therefore, Jefferson Davis,
though he made the error OF lighting the
battle on secondary issues, viii 60 down to
posterity as the champion Of American civili-
zatiOn and defender of the system founded
by Washington, and Abraham Lincoln if not
the greatest criminal that ever lived upon
this earth, will only be saved from it by be-
ing regarded as the most fatal lunatic that
ever afflicted mankind by his madness The
truth IS, Mr.. Daviss friends, or indeed him
self never fully understood the greatnes and
sacredness of the cause he represented, and
it may be that this generation will not do So
But just as fast as Americans get rid of the
monstrous and obscene lunacy Of Abolition,
and comprehend that sO-called slavery is the
normal condition of the negro, they win un-
derstand that, however much he erred in the
means, Jefferson Davis sought to reach an
end more just, benefeent and glorious than
any other public man or leader since the
days of Christ

CaHSes Of Sudden Deatb-Very few Of
the sudden deaths which are said to arise
from diseases of the heart do really arise
from that cause. To ascertain the real
origin Of sudden deaths, an experiment has
been tried in Europe, and reported to u
scientific congress at Strasburg. SiXtY-six
cases Of sudden death were made the subject
of a thorough post mortem examination in
these cases only two were found who died
from disease of the heart Nine out Of
sixty-six had died from apoplexy, while there
were forty six cases of congestion of tho
lungs-that is, the lungs were so full of blood
they could not work, there not being room
enough for a sufficient quantity Of air to
enter to support life. The causes that pro-
duce congestion of the lungs are-coId feet,
tight clothing, costive bowels sitting still
until chilled after being warmed with labor
or a rapid walk, going too suddenly from a
close room into the air, especially after
speaking, and sudden depressing news oper-
ating upon the blood. These causes Of sud
den death being known, an avoidance of
them may serve to lengthen many valuable
lives, which would otherwise be lost under
the verdict of heart complaint That disease
is supposed to be inevitable and incurable;
hence many may not take the pains they
would to avoid sudden death, if they knew
it lay in their power.

LeDr0sy ReCiced-It is stated In some
of the foreign journals that this terrible
disease of the Scriptural era, and which
was endemic throughout Earope from the
tenth to the sixteenth century, is now devel-
oping itself In various parts of the world
with all It's ancient repulsiYe characteristics.
1t prevails extensively in two widely sun
dered countries, the West Indies and Nor
way. In the latter, according to statistics
recently published, there are no less than
two thousand lepers. The tubereular form
Of the disorder, which is much more COM.
mon, and unfortunately much more horrible
than that which affects the joints, is pro-
nounced by the physicians incurable it
would be more modest in the faculty to say
that hfeg hare not discorered cure for It.
In all probability the antidote exists, al-
though it has not yet been brought to light.
Meanwhile, it is satisfactory to know that
it Is not contagious Biultitudes Of lepers
perished miserably In the early ages, aban-
doned to their fate IN consequence Of the
universal belief that whos0eycr touched
them must necessarily share il their ealam-
ity. lt is now known that the distemper is
absolutely incommunicable in That way,
although, like scrofula and some other cuta-
neoUs and gIundular diseases, it may be
transmitted IN families, a terrible heirloom,
from generation to generation. The malady
Is very rare IN this country, and long may
We be exempted from the scourgc.

SHERIDAN's second dispatch to
General Grant, respecting the New
Orleans riot, is the subject of much
controversy. The New York Tribune s
Washington correspondent asserts
it was mutilated before being given to
the public; the New York Times
correspondent denies this. Perhaps
special to the New Orleans
Times, from its editor, now in Wash
ington, and who seems to be in bet
ter position to procure information at
headquarters than any one else con-
nected with the press, will let. a little
light upon the controverted subject.
He telegraphs, August 4th: aa ta.
:" In his first dispatch Sheridan says
the Convention was illegal, and that
he had intended to arrest members
when they committed an overt act by
assembling. The second dispatch says
upon investigation it appears that
Monroe is bad man, and the police
ungovernable; that there was unneces-
sary sacrifice of life. He thinks ar
rests might have been made without
so much slaughter. He urges that
military authority should be retained
until matters are thoroughly investi-
gated. He thinks large majority of
the. people. feel insecure under Mon
roe's administration, and suggests that
some way ought to be devised to re-
move him. The dispatch was surrep-
tltlously given the the Radical press
by Gen. Howard, of the Freedmen's
Bureau. Unexplained, it throws CEN
sure on the Southern people"
There seems to be some sensitive
ness at Washington about these dis
patches. Why not publish the full
text, and SO end the matter? Let us
know what Sheridan did say that so
offended the head of the Administra-
ton and the editor of the Times, that
the latter felt justified in telegraphing
to his paper that nothing was to him
more certain than a speedy change of
commanders of the Department of
the Gulf Cincinnati Commercial.

Greene'S Patent Cylinder
CIDER MILL. a
UPSTAIRS.

For Crushing and Expressing the
a. Juice from Apples, Grapes, and
other Fruit, at one and the same
operation
PTHHE SUBSCRIBER HAS INVENT
IN ed and patented a Machine for crush
ing and expressing the juice from Apples
and other fruit at single operation there
by dispensing with screws, levers, presses,
and other cumbersome machinery, and
saving all the time and labor necessary to
separate the juices from the fruit by the
old process. This important result is at
ta1ned by novel arrangement of crushing
and pressing cylinders together in one
frame, entirely unlike any Machine ever
heretofore constructed for such purpose,
and which must eventually supersede and
do away with all known processes for ex-
tracing juices from fruit.
The subscriber claims, and is ready to
demonstrate, that the following adVan-
tages are gained over all other Machines:
three times the quantity of Cider or Wine can
be made in day than can be made by any
other Machine.
I'd. That from 25 TO 40 PEI. cent. more Cider
or Wine can be extracted from the same
amount of fruit.
Sd. That it is more compact and simple

get out OF order; is adapted to hand or
other powers is portable, and can be
transported readily from place to place;

picture of a three-handed game of
cards that the souls of three Aboli-
! ton martyrs, of whom Jim Lane was
one, were playing around a red hot
table in hell, and intimated that one
more was wanted to make it a four

Some time ago Dostie was trying to
get up an excitement by declaring to
a set of horror stricken Radicals, and
negroes with eye balls popping out of
their heads, that somebody had been
dogging his steps with intent to shoot
him with an empty horse pistol, or
bottle of ginger-pop. He was joking
about that, but alasl it was no Joke
this time. The poor barber who had
generously given up the shaving of
white men in Chicago, to come South
to shave negroes, thus ended his ca
reer In manner little in keeping with

That garrulous barber tongue of his
will wag no more. Alasl poor Dostie.

practical age in which we live, and we
must turn everything to account.
There are great many suffering ne
groes in the South, in spite of the
Freedmen's Bureau, and number of |
plantations demanding the hoe. Let
Dostie's skin be forthwith stripped |
from his body, stuffed and sold to
Barnum-the proceeds to go to the
Freedmen sBureau and negro newspa
pers, to be used by them for the ben
eft of negroes who have no taste for
work. Dostie's body will make good |
soap. Let him be led down. pre-
paratory to being distributed in bars

cheeks, late lathered with sweet

The next campaign will be one of
the most important which the people
OF Indiana have ever fought against
prescription, and error, and wrong.
Now, if ever, must the fruits of the
terrible war which we have suffered.
be secured beyond a peradventure.
The grave responsibilities growing out
of the situation are felt and appreci-
ated by all the people. In order that
they may be prepared to act under
standingly, there is a necessity for
cheap and rapid means of informing
themselves of the rapid events trans
piring from day to day in the political
world. 1t is with the design of doing
all in our power to meet this want that
we now propose to issue
