BEN. WooD AND FARo.-An Eastern paper
says: There are many gamblers in this land
but the greatest of them all is the Hon. Ben
Wood, ex-member of Congress. Indeed,
may say he is the biggest better in the world
at the game of faro, or almost at any other
game. A few nights since he engaged in a
''snap game" the Hon. John Morrissey, Con-
gresham elect backing the game. Wood
played with thousand dollar "chips," and
frequently bet ten to twenty thousand dollars
on card. At one time during the game be
was $751;, 900 loser, but the tickle jade, for
tune, deserted Morrissey, and after play of
fourteen hours Wood retired from the game,
his winnings being one hundred and forty
thousand dollars. He won one bet of $685.
600 on tease" card betting the nine" to
win. This is no doubt the largest winning
ever made in any country. Wood has fire.
quently WOO orl lost $4,000 to $50, 900 in a
play, and once lost $62, 900, and on another
occasion woE $4,000 in a ''snap game" a
game well known to "sports." | may men,
ton as fitting sequence to his great WIN
nings, on Saturday last he bought splendid
piece Of properly here known as the 'eTryon
Row." for which he paid quarter OF mil
lion dollars And there are persons here
who, within twenty-five years, have known
this man to want for the price of dinner.

ATTENTIONS TO Mr.. Davis Speaking of
the evidences of esteem and affection bestow-
ed upon Mr.. Davis, the Metropolitan Record
says:
Surely the opportunity it yields of distin-
gushing the false from the true is one of the
Sweetest uses Of adversely" If Mr.. Davis
were the Chief Magistrate of the Southern
Confederacy be might be as truly houored
and loved as he is to-day but he could new
er know how little was given to the Office,
and how much to the man his heart could
never thrQb with such pleasurable exultaton
and pardonable trinmph as it does in that
fortress by the sea when he discovers that
neither suffering, nor sorrow, nor time, nor
distance. nor the ceaseless struggle for daily
bread, nor all combined have rendered the
Southern people Indifferent to his fate, or
forgetful of his condition. This is true in a
more especial manner of the. Southern wo-
men. They have manifested throughout a
feeling of reverential sympathy for Mr.. Davis,
and all the active or latent enthusiasm of
their natures has been evoked by the indig-
mites heaped upon the grand central object
of their historic drama.

The Up SHoT.-Four millions of negroes,
torn from their normal condition, have been
transformed into paupers, and the Northern
laboring classes are mortgaged for four thou
sand millions of money to accomplish this
stupendous deviltry. Or, in other words, the
producing forces of the North are loaded
down with debt of four thousand millions
to destroy the producing forces of the SOUTH
Since this world began, is there any approach
to this ruin? And yet the madmen wish to go
on, until the negro is not only a pauper but
voter; thus every Northern laborer must
give certain portion of each days labor, not
only to support the negro pauper, but to make
him his equal in the Government @

PURITAN HORROR OF SLAvERY.-The Puri-
tans nave a holy horror of slavery when they
can't make anything out of it. When it paid
they rather loved the institution. 1t is a re-
markabe fact, fact which cannot be con-
troverted, that the Puritans were the first to
establish slavery in this country. Authentic
records show that they enslaved all the Indi-
ans they captured in war, and they justified
themselves by copious references to the BIZ
BILE. When they found that the adult males
did not take to the condition kindly, they
were separated from their families and sold
ia the West Indies-the women and children
being kept IN servitude. Sometimes they
were traded off for negroes, who were found
to be much more tractable. On one occa-
sion, Captain Church, the conqueror of King
Philip, received the surrender of $50 Pequods
as prisoners of war. The Puritan clergy put
them into slavery, against the remonstrances
of Church, whose honor was pledged to diff
ferent treatment. This difference between
the church and the army is often illustrated
in our times-the latter always being more
liberal and generous. Even Philips wife and
child were sold into slavery in the West In
dies by the Puritan Priests, who claimed the
act as one of great lenity, iuasmuch as they
held them to be fair subjects for summary
death.

earth, and reason should have rejected
the idea Of fighting for the tomb Of the
Savior The conquest of Mexico and
Of Peru by cliraLrous Spaniards illustrates
at the same time tbe spirit Of adventure,
and its abomiDable features. Many, it
seems, have difficulty in making the
distinction Of aimless adventure or ad-
venture for an unworthy object as for
gold or admiration an adventure to reach
a noble object.
If mere animal feaflessness is to re-
cieve our moral admiration we see rot
why tgsrmay not come in for the
same; but if moral courage be added
to natural bravery the case is changed.
In these days of intense desire for pop
ularity, by any means, of time-serying, of
Indifference TO abstract right, of neglect
Of defending truth for truths sake we
may well praise men who are brave to
defend right against odds. And for
this we regret to see human powers
squandered In aimless adventure. Give
US men who are careful to have con-
science well informed, and who will
then brayely "stand by"it; men who
will reason through the first appearance
of things, and take the mask from the
bold front of hyppocritical good; and
who believe, and act upon the belief,
that there is truth and right--to know
which they must think if they donot die.

life is given to no one to be simply ad-
yenturous. u ,.- s ...

enacted a law requiring the Probate Judges
of the several counties to keep a record OF
all the births and deaths occurring In their
several counties aud making It the duty
of physicians and professional mid-wives
to keep a registry of the births wherein
they have assisted, with the sex and color
of the child and the residence of Its parents.
It also requires that physicians, clergymen,
and sections, who o%Giciatc either in the last
illness, at the death, or at the burial of de-
ceased persons. shall keep a registry Of the
name, age, aud residence of said deceased
persons at the time Of their death, It
makes IL a duty, also, of the parties
above mentioned. to report full and
correctly the births and deaths
registered by them, as above required, to
the Probate Judge Of the county every
three months, on or before the second Mon
day of the months of January, April, July,
October, Of each year. And it Is made the
duty of the Probate Judge to record the
same within fifteen days after the receipt
thereof aud transmit, ON or before the first
Monday of November, every year, an abb
stract Of his record to the Commissioner of
Statistics, in such form as that official may
dictate. The record thus made, Is to be re-
cieved in any court as primd tdci eevidencc
of the facts therein stated; aud shall be

ices under this act like fees rs are charged

visions.

will not be paid by regiments, as provided
by the regulations OF the Secretary of War.
There is but one paymaster to pay all the
Ohio soldiers bounty, and he a Y he can
only pay thirty or forty a day. All such
claims are referred to the Second Auditor,
to have payment noted on the rolls, and
that officer cannot pass upon more than
10000 claims a month. lie says he has so

IT, A young woman, living with a
famer named Titus, one mile from SPRING
field, was terribly gored by a young COW,
which she was proceeding to milk, on Tues

gentleman riding by heard the poor girls
cries sprang over the fence just in time to
drive the furious animal away before fatal
results ensued. The woman was being
rolled on the ground, and the cow was
madly p%lunging at her, thrusting her horn
repeatedly In the mouth and face of her
helpless victim.
