Miseegination.
Practice What You Preach.

A few days since a negro woman call
ed upon one of our most prominent law
yers and laid the following case before
him and asked for legal advice. As the
matter is likely to be made public through
the courts we think it unnecessary to give
names now. Suffice it to say, this practi
ca! misceginationist is one of the most
prominent Radicals and Loyal Leaguers
in Giles county and an ex Federal Colonel.
The facts as detailed by the unfortunate
woman are substantially as follows:
Some time ago, about the first Of the
year, perhaps, this gay -deceiver and sedu-
Ger of colored virtue, taking advantage of
the absence Of his family. with promises
that he would be responsible For the result,
and support the Responsibility" if there
should be any. aud by all the arts common
ly brought to bear by viotimizers of virtu-
Gus and confding females, induced this
woman to lend her person to him that he
might practice what he Preaced and what
is preached By his party. She yielded to
his persuasive arguments, and short time
sncs the Responsibility" ensued. The
mother, confidently relying upon the prom
ises of the father, called upon him fire.
quently for pecuniary assistance, which
he declined rendering. A few days ago
the woman. becoming desperate, took her
child in her arms, marched into the house
of its father, and, in the presence of his
| family, threw it upon the bed, and told
him it was his aud he must support it
This greatly enraged the unnatural father.
who, as the woman alleges, beat her I'M
mefcifully and forced her to take the child
way.
! The woman was advised b. her council
to 90 back home and remain quiet and
peaceable, and see1f she couldn't procure
a support for the child from the father, and
tif she failed IN this. she could bring suit
for seduction and breach of promise.
This and one other are the only two ca
ses of similar character that have been
brought to light in this county, ard strange
to say, the gay Lotharios in both cases
were she ring-leaders Of the Loyal League
/ in their respective localities.

Bold Burglary.
On Wednesday night last the Drug
Store of Heberly q Mason and store of
McGrew & Co. were entered by burglars,
who, Judging from their boldness and dex-
teFity, were anything but noviees at the
business, and relieved of a considerable
quantity of jewelrY, watches, money dc.
The house of Heberly & Mason was ev-5
identity entered from the roof. as the scut-
tle-hOlo was found to be open next morn
ing. They let themselves down into the
bed room occupied by Mr.. Heberly and
his clerk, Tine Perkins, and, lighting can
die, proceeded to business. They first
relieved the gentlemen's pockets of their
contents, consisting OF IAN elegant gold
watch and chain, worth $3.50, some small
change, keys &C., then proceeded down
stairs. First looking over DR.. Bates pri-
vate papers and prescription case in the
counting room, they entered the store room
and took the change out of the cash
drawer nine gold pencils from the show
case, and made their exit at the front door,
leaving it standing open. They scattered
things around generally. having evidently
made thorough search for valuables.-
A vest and pair of boots were brought
down stairs and left, one on the floor and
the other at the front door.
Both Of these gentlemen when they FIRST
woke in the morning complained of feeling
unusually stupid and bad, and they believe
that chloroform or some other supplying
drug was first administered by the bur
glars.
The house of Me6rew & Co. was en-
tered through side window in the second
story which opens out on,the roof Of Fish
er's store, and which is very easy of &C
cess. The bold scoundrels first entered
the bed room occupied by Messrs. Nelson
and Finly, searched their pockets, in
which they found some small change, then
went below into the store room. hav-
| Jog. as the surroundings show, lighted
candle with them. In this house Mr.. VIM.
Manning has his sllver-smith shop and had
4 in the showcase number of watches and
/ some iewelry. The scoundrels knew how
to discriminate between good jewelry and
pinch back. They extracted only thai
which was genuine. together with FIVE OIL
six watches, leaving the common articles
!. in the show case. Having the key in thei
possession, they opened the cash draweI
and pocketed its contents, consisting of I
small amount of greenbacks and abou
Fl $3.50 in Southern bank money. The!
then departed without as much rs sayin!
good morning to the drOwsy occupants 0
the house, and leaving no clue as to VIII
q they were or their whereabouts.
Il Mr.. Manning sustains a heavier loss thai
any one else by this burglary, the value c
his missing articles amounting to three 0
four hundred dollafs He is an industriOu
q and worthy mechanic. having the conf
dence and esteem of all who know him
and has the sympathy ofall'th community
; This bold robbery was evidently CON
m,tted by parties perfectly familiar wit
the premises and who live right In GU
midst.

JEFFERSON, Ohio, June H.-Editors Missouri
DemOcTdt-Dear Sirs:-I notice in your paper of
the 25th inst an article on the remarks made
at Lawrence, Kansas which have been so
severely criticized by several papers, commenc-
ing with the New York Times, commenting
upon a letter of its correspondent who was
with the party, and who furnished an alb
stract of the speech. There was no stenogra-
pher present. and no one attempted TO report
the speech literally; and while cannot pre-
occasion, / am perfectly sure that said nothing
about the division OF property, OF the unequal
distribution of 1t, or even that IL might be
remedied by legislation. / did speak OF the
immense advance that science had made In
labor. saving machinery within the last half
over the material elements in that time, so that
the labor of one man would now produce more
OF things useful than many could previous TO
that time; yet was unable to see that those
improvements had bettered the condition of
the labOTer; that this state of things was wrong
and must be remedied / also remarked
that the tnadequacy of the compensation OF
labor was creating an uneasiness and rest
lessness among laborers everywhere, as
was manifested by strikes, by endeavors to
Indications which led me TO believe that the
question must be met, and that the man who
should discover and be able to apply a remedy
for these great evils would be the greatest bene-
factor of mankind since the time of Christ, etc.
etc; but did not attempt In that speech to
point out In what the remedy should consist.
In short, your editorial has caught the spirit Of
what Intended to say, and believe / did say
much nearer than was done by the correspond
ent of the Times, who, IL seems to me, entirely
mistook what said on that occasion. Several
Senators were present. and not one OF them
that have consulted understood me in the way
