seated himself near his companions to
watch the effect of the drug. 1t soon be-
gan to work. One of the seamen arose
and said, "Well, shipmates, feel sleepy;
| guess III 60 below, and turn in"
With that he took two or three steps
across the deck, and then sank down and
Immediately fell asleep. His companions
were not long in following his examples
and in short time were all asleep.
Morgan then arose, and going below en-
tered the cabin.
AT motion from him the captain arose,
and together they seized the villain who
had planned the mischief, and bound him.
They then went on deck and securely
bound the sleeping mutineers. They did
not awake until the next morning, when
finding themselves bound and their plans
frustrated, their rage knew no bounds.
Old Sambo, the steward, wept for JOY at
his escape from being roasted, as he posi-
lively afirms that he overheard them say
they intended roasting him.
Toward the middle of the day the cap
tain espied vessel, which, on speaking,
he found to be from New York. On in
forming the captain of her (who was an
old friend of his) the condition in which
they were, be kindly offered to let him
have several of his men. This offer the
captain gladly accepted, and five robust
sailors were soon on board.
The remainder Of the voyage was a
pleasant and agreeable one. When the
vessel reached New York, the mutineers
were shortly after tried fortheir crimes.

IMIGRATIoN FROM GERMANY.

The termination of our civil D war, as
common parlance has it, together with
the prospective war in Europe, has given
new impulse to migration. The eyes
and the hopes of the poor and of the op-
pressed in those countries are directed to
the United States as their refuge and fu-
turc home. Passing our streets a few
mornings since we saw two German ladies,
each with three children, who had travel
led all the way from Germany alone to
meet a son and brother, resident In this
country. Such resolution of character,
such perseverance, forms the basis of
those qualities which has ever ensured
success to the Teutonic race.
Of all the emigrants reaching this coun-
try, there are possibly none who, in the
aggregate, equal the Germanic family in
industry and perseverance, or who have
done more to develop the vast resources
of our common country. Unlike the i'm
pulsiye, spasmodic Celt, the Featon calm
ly reflects on what is before him. He con-
siders his chances of success, and when
his mind is satisfied, he goes to work with
a will that admits no finching. Nl des-
perandum is his motto. 1t is fitting and
proper that men possessing such qualities
should be respected. The men who, in
accordance with the laws of Providence,
help themselves, are those whom Proyi-
dence helps. Such are the men who give
strength to nation, and prosperity to
communities. -fl-cs
If any class of migrants should receive
especial sympathy from our people, the
Germans are that class. In their father
land they were burdened with taxation,
and their personal and political liberty
depended on the caprice of despotic ty
rants. Having left these things behind
them, and now realizing the blessings of
this ''better land" they arc fairly started
inths road of prosperity.-EaR Vert Bul-

The Democratic party is marshalled By gal

This sort of talk Is all very well for
buncome, but it has the slight disRdvan.
tage Of being wholly untrue. General Ls
Feyre, the candidate referred to, would
have remained Major-the rank he held
on leaving the service-had it not been
for the political influence" which the
Statesman so much despises. Don Piatt,
the Logan county legislator, was, strange
to say, responsible for lie Feyre's birth in
to a brevet brigadier-ship. Thereby hangs
a tale. 1t is whispered that certain
charming young lady of Columbus had
the distinguished honor of being attended
by two bachelor members of the. present
Legislature, General lie Fevre and Gener-
al Banning, both young, gallant, and as
piring. The young lady, being something
of politician as well as something of
fiirt, conceived the idea of setting up her
two attendants against one another-the
one as the Democratic, the other as the
Union nominee for Secretary of State
Don Piatt, a personal friend of both par
ties, favored the project, thinking perhaps
that LIE Fevre would be more easily beaten
by Banning than any other man the Dem
ocrats could put up. Tocarry it out Piatt
had LIE Fevre breyetted Brigadier Gener-
al, so as to make him an eligible soldier
candidate for the Democrats to swallow
The plan worked smoothly with the Dem
ocratic coEyention, but there was hitch
in the Union convention. LIE Feyre was
nominated, but Banning was not, and the
Columbus lady aforesaid has but one Of
her admirers before the people.

HOW IT he RRCRIYRD.

The Raleigh IN. C.) Standard urges the
acceptance Of the plan of reconstruction,
and the probabilities are, that the advice
will be taken. 1t is supposed, also, that
Arkansas will be ready to aequiesce, while
Tennessee has practically done so already.
There, are, however, no inclinations at
present, that other Southern States will
accept TIE terms offered. The Richmond
Wing predicts that every Southern State,
if the people are allowed voice in the
decision, viii repudiate the plan proposed
by Congress.
In our opinion, the action Of the late
rebel States win depend very much upon
circumstances. They have been encour-
aged to hope that the Fall elections will
give them better prospect IF the next
Congress is Union, the South viii accept
the proffered terms at once.

oux retErned to l1e South, and vas fuliy
confirmed IN the information he bad re-
ceived about bis family, and that bis real
estate had also been contiscatsd. He gave
his wife and child up as lost, and returned
to Cincinnati. q lIfl fabiI4
After his wife and child had dremained
in Memphis and escaped the disaster Of the
Sultsna, she started for Chicago and reach
ed Camp Douglas. Impatient at the de-
lay she hastened there with expectations
of meeting him who was dearer to her than
life. The reader can picture to himself
the agony Of this sad ,Vife--s, stranger,
destitute Of money carrying in her aEDss
weakly child not yet recovered from Sc
we're illness, and she herself worn out with
fatigue and anxiety-when she learned
that her husband was dead.
There was no doubt of the death: the
registry kept at Camp Douglas showed it,
and the grave was pointed out to her,
which bore this inscription on pine board:
.sMAJOR CHARLES GER0UX,
Third Louisiana Infantry 4 sai RI.
The same grave this day is neatly sod
ded over, and ct its head grows rosebush.
Broken-hearted and bowed down. With
grief, she wended her way on foot to the
great city of Chicago, not knowing why
she went A stranger among strangers,
with no one to aid or pity her, save the
good God, who in her utmost heart she
believed had forsaken- her. sr &. .-5a.-...
She was taken in and cared for by the
Sisters of Charity, until she could hear
from her friends in Ohio, from whom she
had not heard for the past four years. A
letter was received, that Immediately af-
ter the war her uncle had died, and soon
after his widow had removed to Iroquois
county, Illinois, to live with her married
son. Mrs. Geroux was supplied with mon
ey to enable her to find her friends in Iro-
quois county, where she has since resided.
Geroux returned to his situation at Cin-
cinnati, and was sent by his firm TO collect
debt due in Irequois county. While
there he sought out the Attorney who had
him discharged on the habeas corpus, 20
learn the whereabouts of the horse that
did him good service, and to secure his
assistance in collecting his debt He soon
made himself known, and while theywere
discussing about the stolen horse, alady
and child entered the same Office There
was momentary pause, and husband and
wifswere in each others arms We shall
not attempt to describe the scene which
followed. The husband found wife and
child, whom he firmly believed to be dead.
and the wife found husband over whose
grave she had shed bitter tears of woe.
Mrs. Geroux was visiting the same at
torney to find out about her husbands
confiscated property, and to apply to the
government to have his property restored
