says
while the turbulent and stormy ell

around US the freedmen are steadily i'm

young old people, long past the me-
ridian of life, are attending school,
thinking that if they ever can read their
Bibles death will have no terror for
them. Little urchins from seven to ten
years go around in squads with their
books and states slups over their
shoulders, straining their eyes in read
ing aloud the signs over the stores, while
hundreds older ones skip and play
along the roads after school in merry
laughing mood, their black faces beam

MISSOURI matters do not
stay settled. No sooner hadiGen. Grant
counterms nded the order for United
States troops to visit the disturbed dis
trict than Gov. Fletcher sent back his
militia. The United States marshal has
gone from Lexingtonlto Leavenworth to
consult Gen. Hancock, and prominent
conservative citizens of Lafayette and
Jackson counties have fled to st. Louis,
and report that their lives are unsafe at
home. The militia are said to be rob-
bing citizens in the streets, breaking into
banks and dwelling houses and commit
ting various outrages, under the pretense
of protecting the people against bush
whackers. A late report says that Gov.
Fletcher promises to withdraw the mill

A SENSATION NOVEL IN REAL LIFE.-lt
is not often that man who begins his
career by enlightenment turns out right
in the long run, and refunds with in
terest the amount distracted but an in
stance of the kind, very remarkable in
its character has come to light in Liver
pool. About six or eight years ago a
young man, who had been educated at
Trinity College, Dublin, arrived in Liver
pool to push his fortune. His conduct
while at the college had been so loose
and wild that his parents declined to
have anything further to do with him.
But he was clever, a good linguist and
apt to make himself useful, and soon he
was engaged as a correspondence clerk
by an influential firm, in whose service
he worked himself up to such point of
efficiency, that they increased both his
pay and his responsibilities. At length
however, the "old Adam" asserted it.
self, and in order to cover his personal
extravaganza, the young man helped
himself to his employers cash to the
extent of $4,000. He, of course, himself
eloped, and all the ingenuity of the de-
tective officials could not disclose his
whereabouts.
In the meantime the fugitive went to
America, and las afterwards transpired)
engaged himself to well-known dry
goods merchant in New York, with
whom he remained until the outbreak
of the American war. His master, be-
ing an ardent patriot, offered to advance
handsome sums of money to any of his
clerks who would volunteer for the war,
and the hero of this brave narrative
was the first who accepted the offer. He
went through some of the severest
brushes of the campaign without re-
ceiving a wound, fought at Fredericks-
burg, Seven Pines, and other places, and
held a subordinate command during
Sherman's great march. At the close of
the struggle ne fell in love with and
married the wealthy young widow of
one of the federal generals who was
killed at Gettysburg. After the mar
riage the lady wished to visit England,
but there was one little difficulty in the
way-e3,O00. Ultimately, however, it
was decided that the wisest course
would be to refund the amounts and

JAMES STEPHENS PRoMsEs.-In his
last public address in this country, made
in Jones Wood, New York, James
Stephens, the chief organizer OF the Irish
Republic, promised to do great things in
Ireland, for the freedom of that unhappy
and oppressed country, "this very year."
But few days now remain in which to
redeem the promise. We would not i'm
pose upon the creduity OF any one by
saying that there is even the faintest
prospect that the promises of the chief
organizer will he redeemed. 1t appears
that the British Government however,
took large amount of stock in
Stephens threats, and have covered Ire
land with troops, and established such a
rigid and powerful police system. that
nothing can circUmventit it. 1t has always
been the misfortune of the Irish cause
that its leaders have been afflicted with
passion for publicly divulging their
plans long before they are ready to at
tempt to carry them into execution. The
movement upon Canada, last spring, was
not attempted till the British Govern
ment had been publicly warned by the
Fenian orators of all their plans in re-
lation thereto, and had ample time for
preparation. Mr.. Stephens promises, so
boldly and so openly made, have defeat
ed the object which he was laboring to
promote, and removed all possibility for
success in any present attempt at revo-
luton in Ireland.

the complaints against the election of
General Custis Lee TO the Presidency OF
a Maryland college, says the Radicals
consider Lee worse than Benedict
Arnold, probably because Arnold be-
trayed the Rebels, while Lee did not.
This comparison between the patriots of
the Revolution and the traitors of the
South, is a favorite one with the Demo
Gratis. They fail to see any difference
between revolt against tyrannical
foreign despotlsm and humane and
benefcent Government; between an up
risiRg for liberty, and one whose "chief
cornerstone" was slavery, and the con-
tinued oppression of down-trodden
race. II is not to be wondered at that
those who thus approve the spirit and
designs of the Southern leaders, should
be in haste to have them returned TO the
chief places of honor in the nation.

SCENE ON THE ICE.-Yesterday, n
young lady, most graceful skater,
was taking afternoon exercise on the
ice, ut the mouth of the creek. In one
of her swiftest flights, her dainty foot
came in contact with stick lying in
her path. Oh! what fall was there.
Had the young lady gone backwards,
her waterfall would undoubtedly
have protected her from serious injury.
But, unfortunately, she fell sidewise,
the sharp iron of one of her skates
striking tho calf of her lower limb. I'm
mediHtely n torrent of something rushed
out and spread over the ice in her vicin-
ity. AT this. interesting state OF affairs,
ayouth OF fifteen winters or whereabouts,
moro Profane than particular, skated
by, and, observing the young lady's
predicament, exclaimed with boyish
enthusiasm, "JerusaIemI Look how
that girls legs bleedin'."
1t WINS fact. The leg was bleeding
at tremendous rate. The drops OF
blood had the consistency and color OF
sawdust, but the dow was checked in
time to save the young lady's life.
She was tenderly cared for by her
friends, and, we suppose, will be rather
shy of skates hereafIer-under certain
circumstances,
