We publish to-day in another part Of the
paper a batch Of official communications ON
the subject Of the troubles in Missouri, among
the most important Of which are the letters
of Governor Fletcher and General Blair 10 the
President The middle in which people Of old
were in about the philosophers stone, or
which the world is In to-day about Mexican
affairs, Is not greater than that about political
troubles, border rufiians, bushwhackers, gueril-
las, rebels and loyallsts in Missouri Even our
contemporaries who have the keenest scout for
such things cannot smell out the right track TO
solution. Radical agitators of both sides,
who have been mainly instrumental in prodsc-
ing tho troubles In Missouri, are now unable
TO understand them. General Sherman, who
was sent out there to find out the difficulty and
to set things right, was utterly belonged.
General Grant, with his piercing military eye,
went also to look at the pcrplcxing affairs,
and returned entirely confused. Now We have
General Blair, Governor Fletcher and others
making on effort TO enlighten us upon that
which they probably do not understand them
selves. There is no agreement among all
these high authorities as to causes, nature and
extent OF the troublc. A TO ourselves. we
have long since given up the hope Of ever
understanding them. The States Of Missouri
aud Kansas aud the settlements along the
extreme western border Of those States have
been in the greatest and most incomprehensbic
confusion ever since that Pandora box OF
trouble. the Kansas Nebraska matter was
brought into Congress and before the country.
Ever since then confusion has been growing
worse confcundcd, till at last no one vnder-
stands Missouri affairs. II would he good
thing IL we could dctach the whole Of that
region from the United siascS Tor time

A. GENTLE REMINDER. Lord Eldon was

A GENTLE REMINDER Lord Eldon was
sitting in his study over table Of papers when
a young and lovely girl-slightly rustic in her
attire, slightly embarrassed by the novelty OF
her position, but thoroughly in command OF
,her wits -entered the room and walked up to
the lawyers chair. s'My dear - said the
Chancellor, rising and bowing with Old World
courtesy, 'swho are you? Lord Eldon,.
answered the blushirg maiden, Il am Bessie

give her husband living, and you answered,
sMr. Bridge, nv promise is not worth a crown,
but I give it to you wishing it were worth
more. '''a Enthusiastically the Chancellor ex-
claimed " ou are quite right | admit the
obligation. I remember all about it. and
then, after pause, arch]y surveying the dam
sci, whose graces were the reverse of matronly,
he added: ''But surely, the time for keeping
my promise has not yet arrived? You cannot
be any one wife at present % -. z..,-
For few, seconds Bessie hesitated tor an an
swer, and then, with blush and a ripple Of
silver laughter, she replied "No, but | do

Gently falenvscant, and It you Will give 1t &c

say that the Chancellor forthwith summoned
his Secretary, that the Secretary forthwith
made out the presentation to Bessies lover,
and that having given the Chancellor kiss OF
gratitude, Bessie made good speed back to
