..Tur WOODEN END OF THE BoARD.'-
General Banks, in recent speech delivered
nj Washington in favor of negro snt1rGge,
told this anecdote:
..Nlten was younger than I am, in the
State of New Hampshire, at the town OF
Nashua. where / obtained my edlcafloh at
university, with beifrey at the top and a
yrater-wheel under the lower stories laugh
tori looking out with my ASSOCIATES and
f,.IIoyy-Students upon the smooth md grassy
surface Of tie Merrimac river, that stream
of perpetual beauty and perpetual life, we
saw a colored boy, Intimately known 10 Us
upop the surface, engaged IN the pleasant
exercise of skating. for it was winter. Nhlle
we looked upon the beautiful Merrlmae, the
little negro boy suddenly went IN. lou may
never have seen a negro under such cITeum-
stances. Laughter
I'VE went down to him with all the speed
possible Going ont To the middle OF the
river we took up plank and handed II 10
the little negro and he graSped Ii with as
much alacTity amy one OF them VIII take
a ballot when we give ii to them. just as
we had got il TO the hole into which he had
fallen. he fell off the plank and went in
again The second time he came up he
wore an expression shall never forget. Iou
have never seen negro under such circum-
stances Laughter. He was speechless.
his emotions suppressed all rhetoric, he did
not indulge in any eloquence at all. he
rrasped the plank this time, not with alac-
rity but with ferocitv, and we brought him
again To the surface. We thought he was
negro saved from the jaws OF death; but OF
the little fellow slipped and went down.
You may never have seen negro under such
circumstances. Laughter We handed
him the plank again. Bat he did not touch
it this time. You may never have seen a
negro refuse a plank under such circum-
stances. Great laughterl He addressed us
a speech, and | never heard a speech that
J contained so much of touching eloquence as
! was embodied in that little negros speech.
/ please Glib dis nigger de wooden end oh dat
/ board. Laughter. You see the end we had
/ given him was tho icy end. 1t was the same
/ lev end that the Southern people have been
/ holding out 10 him for two hundred years.
] He was entirely satisfied that the wooden
( end was the best
'.Now. sir, what we propose for the negro
/ in this country is, to give him the wooden
end of the board He has had the ley end for
more than two centuries. The des0latlo1 OF
/ more than moral retr.1UJ.ou has come upon
/ the men who extended 10 him the ley end
/ OF the board and come upon them justly.
/ I wish now to give him the wooden end OF
/ the board. He viii receive from that act OF
/ Justice the same joy which that little negro
/ experienced Great applause.T
/ If the Radicals think this good thing,
/ they are welcome to all the good it viii do
/ them We copy it because we think it
really is good thing but "StonewaIl Jack
sons commissary' has made the same mis-
! take now that he did when he was younger
! he is offering the negro the frozen end of
/ the board.

POWERS PATENT PERPETUAL BROOM,

Every one knows the unlimited demand
for this useful article, and if you once under
stand its merits, aud the advantages of Sc
curing its monopoly in the manufacturing
and sale, there is scarcely one man in n thou
sand that would not, after due inycstiga-
tion, give it hearty support. We speak from
experience and practical knowledge when
we say that this Broom is superceding all
others, and is fast coming into general use;
and We defy capitalists to find a field of la

1t Is true, we sell the right to manufac-
tUre and sell this article, and some narrow
minded persons might doubt how and when
/ they would see their money coming back,
but as a general thing capitalists are salts
lied to loan their money at 10 per cent but
if We cannot satisfy the most incredulous
that Powers Patent Perpetual Broom will
guarantee 100 per cent. on all capital in
vested, then we say, in all candor, don't in
vest your money with us in the Broom, and,
ON the other hand, if, after investigation,
you lind we have underTated instead OF over
rated the advantages, then give it gOl1' sup
