Columbia counties had insurrection
broken out, and in Saline companies OF

The above Truth by Mail" we condens.
from a statement in the Missouri De1s-
crdt OF the I'd inst. which was furnished
to that paper by gentleman of high
standing and integrity, with unusual
means for accurate information. But IA
order 10 make the evidence incontrove--
tible, we give the preliminary portion OF
Gov Claytons proclamation. In t,4:s
he says:
It has been made known to the that lar.
number of lawless and evil disposed ersons "a
the counties cf Conway, Perry and ColumIia
In the State of Arkansas, are in open rebellion
against the laws of the State, that a court OF
justice was broken up and the civil authoritiss
oyerpowered in said counties by bodies o!
armed men. who have driven from their
homes a Large number of peaceable and loyal
citizens; and that the officers of the law ara
wholly powerless TO preserve order or protect
citizens from violence within either of said
counties, and reliable information having
been received that quiet men have been assa--
slnatedJ and attempts have been made upon
the lives of Others in various other countis.
in this State,in which the laws are now -st AZ
defiance, the lives of the officers are threat
ened, and the Civil authorities of the STATE
are openly defed and set ut naught, rendering
1t impossible for the constituted authorities
of :he law to preserve order and protect "a
lives and property of the people.
We are prepared to give the Guzefte
several columns of Truths by Mail i.

and its shocks were still felt on the 10Th.
Now, at San Pedro, on the 18th ult., a
series of waves commenced flowing upon
the coast, causing the tide TO rise three
or four feet above its ordinary high wa
ter mark. which were regularly followed
by falling of the tide the same dis
tance below low water mark. This agi-
tation occurred regularly twice every
half hour, and continued for several
hours, and was at the time attributed TO
a submarine disturbance. 1t is now ev =
ident that it was only one of the results
of the great earthquake which has piled
the shores of Peru with dead bodies,
and which seemed 10 have its point of
central activity in the vicinity of the

be strange if we hear of still further
disaster in the northern portion of Chilli

1IEN WHO NEVER MADE
SPEECHES.

So much at loss is the Democratic
party tor abuse with which TO assail
General Grant, that it is obliged contin.
ually 10 lay before the readers of its
Journals the proposition that " General
Grant don't speak" From this they draw
the conclusion that he does not know
enough 10 be President. This conclu-
sion is absurd, and does not naturally
follow, for we might as well argue that
because George Francis Train. the great
blowhard. is always shooting off his
mouth, that he is. above all others, the
proper person TO occupy the White
House. But in order that the utter
foolishness of this statement may be
the more fully appreciated, we append
few items from an exchange. giving
names of prominent men whose deeds
spoke louder than words, and who never
made speeches: r..... ,..
e Washington never made a speech.
In the zenith of his fame he once at
tempted il, failed, and gave it up con-
fused and abashed. In framing the
Constitution of the United States the
labor was almost wholly performed in
committee OF the whole, of which
George Washington was, day after
day, the chairman but he made bat
two speeches during the Convepti ton, of
a few words each, something like one
OF Grants speeches. The Convention.
however. acknowledged the master
spirit. and historians affirm that If il
had not been tor his personal popularity
and the thirty words of his first speech.
pronouncing it the best that could be
united upon, the Constitution would
have been rejected by the people.
Thomas Jefferson never made a speech.
He couldn't do it. Napoleon, whose ex-
ecutive ability is almost without par
allel. said that his greatest difficulty
was in finding men of deeds rather
than words. When asked how he main-
tanned his influence over his superiors
in age and experience, when Command
er-in-Chiet of the army OF Italy, he said
''by reserve The greatness of a man
is not measured by the length OF his
speeches. or the number ~.

Dispatches have recently been sent
from San Francisco. which were not OF
sufficient importance to warrant their
publication in full. but which go TO
show that affairs are not altogether
lovely in the newly acquired Territory.
The old Russian Fur Company carried

SUMMER HATS FOR GENrLEMEN.-So much
attention is being given by the ''lords of
creation" to the different styles of sshead
dress" invented by Dame Fashion, that to
keep our readers posted requires almost as
much care as has heretofore been bestowed
upon the fashions which govern the femi-
nine world, and we throw out a few hints
concerning summer hats. An examination
of che stock OF Smith 6 Conrad, and of
other fashionable dealers, enables us to give
the following: The sailor hat of mixed
rough English straw, with wide black
band, is the popular style for warm
weather This is durable, stylish look
ing affair, suggestive of strolls by the rocks
and country drives, or rides on the tops of
omnibuses, any thing that gay ensouciant
fellows consider appropriate summer fun.
Ihe negltge of soft drab or stone-colored
felt for travelling, can be folded up and put
away in case. For occasions of more
style the English Derby hat of pearl felt
with soft crown and stiff D'Orsay brim,
may be chosen, but small men look extin-
guished in one of these, the crowns are so
large. The Derby is an elegant hat for
tall, dark-haired man over thirty, but boys
should not presume to wear it. Instead of
giving them an air of knowing style, they
look infantile in this hat. For dress hat
the drab beaver will be the best choice,
though cashmere high hats will be worn
little. For boys, the sailor hat with square
crown, of white Dunstable or Milan braid,
with ribbons of all colors for those under
eight years, and the mixed Coburg with
dark trimming for older ones, is almost the
only choice.

A PLEASANT SURPRIsE-A BELOVED Pas
TOR RECEIVES PREsENT.-On Thursday
evening last, one of those pleasant little
episodes which dot the desert of life with
many green and refreshing oasis, occur
red in one of the churches in this city,
scarcely less pleasing to all concerned, than
is the sight OF the cool margin of the oasis
to the wearied traveller on the great desert
OF the Old World.
On.the evening in question, Rev. Conrad
Mees, pastor of the German Lutbern
Church, on the corner of High and Mound
streets, preached to the membership and
very large congregation, his twenty-fifth
anniversary sermon. After the dismissal
If the congregation at the close of the SER
vices, the members of the choir attached to
the church, waited on the pastor and re-
quested him to remain for short time.
An organization was effected In a few mo-
ments, when Mr.. Frederick Beck, ir.,
stepped forward and presented Mr.. Mees
with magnificent silver goblet, with the
name of each member of the choir en-
graved thereon, as a slight token of their
estimation of him as worthy Christian
gentleman, an honorable member OF society,
and an effective and beloved Minister of the
Gospel.
Mr.. Mees was taken wholly by surpriee,
but replied in very affecting speech, ac-
cepting the gift and returning his thanks to
the members of his choir for their kind re-
after which the donors accom-
panied him to the parsonage and partook of
q collation. at the hands of his accomplished
wife.
The occasion was an exceedingly pleasant
one, and will long be cherished in the men,
ories of all the participants.
