A New York and a Chicago newspaper
are arising their Biblical ignorance by a
difference of opinion about the brazen
serpent. The Chicago radical concern
speaks of Choking backward at" and of
':falling down to Worship" this brazen
serpent. The New York radical newspa-
per shows up the bosh involved in this al
fusion, and refers tho Chicago newspaper
to Exodus to find out all about the brazen
serpent.
TO set both these radical newspaper
right, We will add that the brazen serpent
here spoken of undoubtedly prefigures the
democratic party, or the "copperhead,"
the which radicalism has assigned as
- symbol Of democracy. Turning to
Numbers, Chapter XXI, verses 8, 9, we
read
'And the Lord said unto Moses, Make
thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a
pole and it shall come to pass that every
n that is bitten, when he looketh upon
it, shall live.
"And Moses made a serpent Of brass,
and put it upon a pole; and it came to
pass that, if a serpent had bitten any man,
when he beheld the serpent Of brass, he
lived"
The people have been bitten by radical
ism. Their only salvation is in looking
upon the brazen serpent-the copperhead
of democracy.

WOOL! WOOL! WOOL!
A WOODEN MILLS.
RARADoo, Wisconsin.

1t is very generally conceded that the Island
Wooden Mills is the best Wooden Factory in Wiscon-
sin; and that our cloths are superior in DURABILITY,
and fully equal in finish. to the best goods in the
country. So much has been won by adherence to
the following rules:
LIST. To manufacture nothing but pure ALL WOOL
Sd. To have ONE RULE of exchange to apply to
ALL Gust ,mers.
We propose to adhere to these rules so long as we
do business. and We are confident that We shall be
able to give better satisfaction than ever before. We
have additional new machinery. We have procured
the services OF the best Carder, Weaver, Dyer and
Finisher that could be found in the East.
We suppose there are very few farmers who do not
know that II 10 greatly for their Advantage either to
have their wool manufactured or to exchange it for
wooden goods. Thay save from Is to Is Per cent. be-
cause the wool will always purchase moro cloth than
the money which the wool will sell for. They save
the profits made by the commission merchant and
the ret iler; parties will see that the amount of wool
required by us for a yard of cloth made to wear one
year or more and which would cost from the Eastern
market from l.50 to LIS would bring in cash only
from Los to LIS.
TERMS

As the African is now taking his seat
rs a legislator, in various portions of the
free, happy, and opulent southern states,
there arises a very natural curiosity to
2pow how the intelligent Ethiopian bears
the dignity of his new position, and what
he thinks about matters and things in
general.
In the Louisiana legislature, there are
several enlightened Africans. Here is
what one of them, by the name of Bradley
thinks about some matters:
"He said he was astonished that any
member should question tho eligibility of
members on account of color. He cared
not whether it emanatcd from the brain OF
Joe Brown, jeff Davis, or the spiritual
brain Of God Himself, and quoted the Sec
ond paragraph of the bill of rights in sup
port of the argument. He was ready to
purge the senate of traitors and %felons,
and reminded the senate that the first
blow struck for freedom was stuck by a
negro. He closed by saying that, unless
the race was a part and parcel of the state
militia, in less than ten years there would
be another rebellion, exceeding in magni-
tude, and more successful than, the last"

Effects Of the Wool Thrift.

Mr. George w Bond OF Boston. in his
recent report TO the Boston Board of
Trade says that 'thus far, we see that
the high duties imposed upon Wool have
been productive of no advantage to the
wool grower and admits this is owing to
the generally depressed state of trade. to
the economy forced upon the people by
the reaction from the large profits realiz
Cd during the war through the effects of
an inflated currency, and in great rnoas.
ure, by the heavy importations of foreign
, ,r91ols during the tendency of the tariff
"''0 AZ 'ncontrovertble facts and CIR.
"u win the views of wool growsrs
generally. They do no,. uure,e1, ~ 20
prove that the tariff may moi he bene6.
cial to the wool interest in the future n.
Inc report, on the whole, seems to be de.
signed to do In fact these assignment of
reasons for the original statement are
mere concessions, forced from the author
oy the mantestness OF logical sequence
though clearly opposed to the pripcinles
he was advocating.
1t is undoubtedly true, that the prices
oil the two kinds of fine wool which mo.,
seriously compete with our American
mer'no woods, have greatly fallen off in
'he European markets since the passape
OF our tariff in March, 1867. This re-.
suits from the restriction Of the market
and the natural reaction which must nj.
ways occur when prices are undulv slim.
ulated for season previous. This reac-
ton is like the oscillation of a pendulum
gong too far one way insures a rebound
too far the other way, and wher Mr.
Bond reasons that because woods have
already fallen abroad to an extent which
nearly balances the added duty, therefore,
soon these foreign woods will be able to
compete with the homo product in spite
Of the tariff, he goes beyond bis rssks ninR.
