Converts to Democracy.

Gone of the interesting features
Of the Muskinghum County Demo.
cratic Convention, OF last Monday,
was the presence on the platform,
as Vice-Presidents, Of two gentle
men well known heretofore as Re-
publicans in good standing. One
was Thomas McLees, Esq, of Blue
Rock Township, to whom we have
frequently alluded to of Late
The other was Mr.. III. M. Cope
land, of Dresden, a young member
of one of the oldest and most res
pectable families in the county,
of old-line Whig stock. Mr.. Cope
land was in Alabama when the e.
lection On the negro Constitution
occurred in that dismantled State,
and seeing, with his own eyes, the
negroes swarming up to the polls,
with baskets on their arm, to car
ry home their supplies of Suffrage
had the rational effect of convin-
cling him of the absurdity, folly
and imposture Of of anegro gov

New England Servitude,

The Committee, W. Ham,
chairman, appointed by the Mas.
sachusetts Legislature to enquire
into the practice of employing
children in the mills, have made
their report, which says
-"that one-haT Of the children
aoho enter the factory service die
before they reach their eighteenth
gear, in consequence of over work
and long hours, and the remain
der only live to transmit disease
and death to their offspring"
The report closes as follows:
"That men be forthwith en-
ployed to go to India to collect the
jewels from the noses of Birmese
women that the same may be con-
verted into money to be used for
the purpose of converting the
heather of New England"
A timely report this. Now let
us have another upon incipient
child murder, which is the worst
of all the crimes of New England
as shown by DR.. Story, Rev. Mr..
Dodd and others.

Among the committee to notify
Gen. Grant of his nomination,
was a colored gemman, named
Harris, delegate from some dis.
trict of South Africa. Harris from
all accounts, was snubbed. He
fixed himself in a corner of the
front parlor, to watch speechifca-
ton while going on, and it appears
remained there. When the rest of
the committee were invitedinto the
dining-room to 'refresh," "brother"
Harris was left standing solitary
and alone in his corner, and they
did not say eat or drink to him
nary time. He got nothing on
this occasion unless some Of the
servants took him down into the
kitchen to pick the bones Wash
burne, Hawley & Co. had eaten the
meat off OF above. This was bad
treatment OF this man and BROTH
er, more particularly as Grants
chance depends entirely upoa the
negro vote. He should have been
invited to the first table and given
the meat to eat instead of the
bones. A little good Bourbon would
have tickled his palate pleasant
ly, and he would not have refused
a cigar from the Generals case.
Harris and his sable brethren have
cause to complain of his treat
ment. He would not have been
treated worse by 'Copperheads."

A Radical Town.

The Union and Dispatch says
Maryville, the county seat of
Blount, was once fiourishing vii.
lage and contained two or three
of the best institutions of learn.
ing in East Tennessee. That was
before the war. The Radicals
have driven the best citizens into
exile, for no other reason than
they love their native South. 1t
was stated some time ago that a
portion, perhaps majority of the
Aldermen of that town are ne
groes. The result of Radical
rule is told in the following resolu-
tions, which are published in the
Republican, the Radical organ in
that town:
WHEREAS, We, the travis jurors
of the county Of Blount, State of
Tennessee, in convention assem-
bled, having to do without our din
ner for two days, and walk two
miles into the country for supper,
lodging and breakfast, on account
of the inability of the citizens of
Maryville to feed twelve men at
once, do unanimously
Re8olce, That we do respectful
ly but most earnestly petition our
honorable County Court, at its
next quarterly meeting, to re-
move the county seat to Tucka-
leech Cove, where men can be fed
by the dozen.
Resolued, That we also suggest
to the honorable County Court
the propriety of appropriating
money sufficient to support the
citizens of Maryville during the
sitting of the Circuit Court. Lost

The cage containing the lions
of Bailey & Co.'s circus upset near
Milwaukee, Wis, recently, when
the accident created droll though
terrible musical concert, in which
all the beasts joined, some thirty
or forty in number. 1t seems
that in falling, part of the cage
caught the leg of one of the whelps,
badly jamming it, upon which the
cub set up the most plaintive cries;
the rage of the mother became ter
rife, she rushing to her young,
licking it, and uttering such tire.
mendous roars as we have read of
as being heard on "Afric s SUM-
ny shores" The whole caravan
then became excited; the elephant
threw up its trunk, and blew a ter
rife blast, and also slashed his
trunk against his side with a
loud "thud; )" the camels fell down
painting with fear; many of the
horses broke loose with fright and
fled; all the Gagged animals opened
tremendously in bass, baritone,
and tenor, their voices being heard
for miles around by the astonished
Inhabitants. The lifting of the
cage and liberation of the whelp's
paw caused the slow and gradual
subsidence of the concert.

A Grateful Rogue.

| A half-military anecdote is In
circulation in Paris. General
Cluseret, returning home alone
late one evening, was attacked
by an armed brigand. The grea,
strength Of the General rendered
him Indifferent to such incidents
he seized the ruffian by the throat
and threatened to strangle him.
On examining the captive more
closely, Cluseret recognised him as
a parsonage with whom he had
already had dealings. "Why,
you rascal, you are the same man
who robbed my tent in Algeria of
five hundred francs in goldI'
"Ah, General, but if you knew
the circumstances. They had
written to me that my poor moth
er was dangerously i'll, and l
wanted to send hersome assistance.
Bnt | entreatyou, General, to have
some pity on me; give me my lib
erty this time, and I,swear to pass
the rest of my life in repentance"
The General granted the pray
er, and let the fellow 90, and
thought no more about the mat
ter. A long time afterwards he
received a box containing five
hundred francs and the following
letter:
"This restitution, General,
proves to you that a good action
Is never lost. To procure this
sum that | engaged myself to re-
turn to you, l have been obliged
to beat out the brains of two men,
to force three secretaries, and
break in the doors of three inhab-
tied country houses. You see,
General, that a benefit is never
thrown away"

The Wagon made of Willow

In a wagon made of willow
Wheeled 1 once little maiden,
Ringlets shining on the pillow,
Rolling homewards, treasure-laden,
Like boat upon the billow.
Ten years fed; oh how missed her
When She left the village school;
But she said she'd be my sister,
As we fingered by the pool,
And passionately kissed her.
Ten more hopeful years renew it:
Little wagon made of willow
Loving eyes are bent to view it,
Loving hands adjust the pillow,
And we've fitted rockers to it.

An editor says that a man in
New York got himselfinto trouble
by marrying two wives. A West
ern editor replies by assuring his
contemporary that good many
men had done the same thing by
marrying one. A Northern editor
retorts that quite a number of his
acquaintance had trouble enough
by merely promising to marry,
without going any further. A
Southern editor says that friend
of his was bothered enough when
simply found in company with an

Indian-Mormon Romance

In1S52, the Pringle family-the
husband, wife, two sons, and four
daughters-having adopted Nor
monism, left their hcmes in Onei.
da county, N. Y, en- route fol
Salt Lake City. They had accom-.
iplished but half the journey, in
company with other converts whom
they had encountered, when they
were desperately attacked by
mounted Indians, whom, however,
they finally discounted. But the
safety of6ve of the Pringle family
was dearly purchased by the loss
of one of its number-the young
est child, John, a beloved and inte-
resting lad only ten years of age.
The more the members of the fam
lily mourned his loss, the more they
became convinced of the hopeless
ness of rescuing him. Broken
heartedly they proceeded on their
way, We're received into the Nor
mon Church, of which William,
who was two years Johns senior,
became, in time, pillar; and with
the passage of years, came to look
upon their lost, beloved relative
as dead. Will Pringle became, at
last, so enthusiastic a leader in
Mormonism that, about six weeks
ago, he left Utah for Liverpool,
there to promulgate its doctrine,
and on his way thither stopped at
Cleveland, O. Throughout all
John Pringle's captivity, although
he had adopted many of the man
ners and customs of the Indians,
he had constantly pined for his
family and home. In 1859, while
his captors on a
horse-stealing foray in Texas, he
escaped to New Orleans, gradual
ly civilized himself, joined the
Rebel army, and became one of
Beauregard's most skillful scouts.
At length, with early remembran-
,es still throbbing, he resolved to
visit his boyhood's home in Oneida |
county. On his way thither he
arrived in Cleveland, and entered
\ saloon on Seneca Street, drank |
! glass of ale, and seated himself |
oy the fire. He had not long sat
,hus when a stranger entered and
,ot only drank himself, but also
invited the bystanders to join him.
They complied, invitations be-
,ame mutual, the company be-
,ame joyous, songs were sung,
md stories were told, until John
orlngle, in a burst of convivial
confidence, commenced the tale Of
lis capture and captivity. The
irst few words had hardly been
poken when a change was visible
N the strangers face. His cheeks
and then grew pale; his
yes filled and glistened, has lips
uivered, his breast heaved. "My
Tod! it is john" he cried; cit is
title, little John;" and, in anoth-
r moment, he was sobbing and
anting on the bosom of his new
ound brother. William aban-
oned his trip to Liverpool, and
be two brothers started the next
ay for Utah.
