Mr.. Arthur Mac Murrough
Kavanaugh, the recently elected
M. P. for the county of Wexford
is the most extraordinary gen.
tleman who has, during the
present century at least, entered
Parliament. The honorable
gentleman has neither legs nor
arms In place of legs he has
but about six inches of muscular
thigh-stumps, one being about
an inch shorter than its fellow ;.
while his arms are dwarfed to
perhaps four inches of the upper
portion eff those members, un-
furnished with any examinations
approaching, in the remotest
manner, to hands. Yet, he is
an excellent caligraphist, a DASH
ing huntsman, an artistic drau-
ghtsman, an unerring, and the
most expert catcher; a combin-
alton of accomplishments, under
the circumstances of. his corpo-
real imperfections, that is Ger
tainly astonishing. In face and
bust, Mr.. Kavanaugh is of a
manly, handsome mould. Fine
we'll marked features, and eyes
beaming with intelligence, leave
no doubt that, though the body
has been unfortunately shorn of
it's fair and legitimate proporti.
ons, the mind is we'll developed.
He is now about forty years Of
age, and large family of child
rem, as handsome as could be
found in this country, has bless
ed his union with a lady remark
able for her beauty, and beloved
for her amiablc and considerable
disposition. Endowed with Il
healthy mind, MIR. Kavanaugh
has not permitted his physical
Affections to mar, curb. or con-
troll the development OF these
faculties TO which. as if by wav
of compensation, Providence has
vouchsa.ed to impa-t extraordi-
nary energy and acutencss. His
literary taste he has gra,ifed to
the fullest, and the "C"uise of
the Eva" published short time
since, testifies that he is an acute
observer, graceful and vivacious
in expression. The book witch
is most certainly evidence Of an
ability far away above medioc:i-
ty, was illustrated from sketches
made by himself during his
cruise. The mode Of writing is
simple, but must have been al
tended with great trouble before
he attained theprofciency h:ch
he unquestionably has. He holds
the pen or pencil in his mouth,
and guides it's course by the
armstumps, which are sufficient
ly long to meet across the chest,
and by this, apparently impos-
sible mode he produces a cali
graphy each letter of which is
distinctly formed, and all with.
out any popularity, or what is
called character When hunt
ing, he sits in a kind of saddle
basket, and his reins e manag-
ed with an experiences and an
ease surprising, but perhaps the
greatest Of his achievements is
driving a ''four-in-hand.' This he
does to perfection, and as his
team scanpers away at a dash
ing pace, the sharp crack of his
whip may be heard far off.

Political Inconsistencies.

1t IS little remarkable how rapidly po-
Hticians change their opinions when party
drill demands and party success requires.
To-day, unarmed and unattended, we see
gallant Senator VIGOROUSLY invading a
country in which he butyesterday solemnly
declared from his seat ii the Senate OF
the United States it was unsafe to travel.
He comes, too, with no peace offerings, but
for the avowcd purpose Of dividing the
South into hostile parties; to array the Ia
Dor OF this section against its capital to
poison the minds OF those who occupy our
houses. work our farms OF attend our per
sons against those TO V uom they look for
daily support in a word, to persuade the
blacks of the South that those with whom
they have been reared, among whom they
haye lived, their companions on the play
ground and their friends IN after life, and
to whom they must now look for employ
ment and support, are their enemies, utter
" unworthy of their confidence, and whose
continued exercise of the elective franchise
and control of the government must end IN
the renewed enslavement of the cOlored
race or their early and utter extinguish-
ment.
Yesterday, in order to excuse their VIC
lent and unconstitutional legislation, these
Radical politicians declared, with all ap-
pearance of sincerity and truthfulness, that
the blacks were unsafe among the whites,
and forthwith, to remedy the crying evil,
the former were enfranchised and many of
the latter were DISTINGUISHED. To-day, when
this falsehood has served its purpose, and
the Southern people, making q virtue of
necessity. are endeavoring to carry out in
good faith the cxactions of Congress and
our Military rulers, they are denounced as
leading the blacks astray by tiattery and in
diligence. When it suits their purpose,
they refer to such examples as GENERAL
HAMPTON, to show the good results of Rad
ical legislation, and theysagain use the
same instance to prove our rebellious spirit,
and the imminent danger the "man and
brother" stands in when left to the willy
schemes of unpardoned rebels
Without his vote it is evident that the
Radicals care very little for the emancipa-
lion OF the civil rights of the negro-their
philanthropy resolves itself into mere dem
agogueism when party interests require, and
the black man is saint or sinner as he ap-
plauds Holden or WADE HAMPTON. This

legal trib lnals for protection against the en-
actments of Congress- The National In

pace exceeds the party gait.
This official proclamation had immedi-

Wilson's Newbern speech. according to
the Commercials which says cit was a
"garble of History, a disingenuous har-
.sangue-calculated and intended, we have
s'no doubt, to do mischief as between
the black and the white" Thus, it
seems, Mr.. Wilson's mild preparation of
Conservatism oozed out at the ends Of
his fingers at the gentle reproof of Stevens
We were satisfied that his behests would
be obeyed and party discipline would
prove more potent than alluring hopes
of success by tickling the credulity of
Southern audiences at the expense of or
ganization and, possibly, of honesty. The
National hetelLigencer, in commenting upon
this edict of Stevens, and the cringing
promptnes5 with which it will be obeyed,
we'll says:
"That the above ukase, from the chief of the
star chamber, aud the dictator Of Congress, will
