The Radical organs arc accusing Mr..

paying the FIVE twenty bonds in gold.
Now, on this subject, we want to give

laws. We ask our Republican friends
to read his letter; and after doing so, to

the bondholder candidates, and are in
favor OF paying the Gvc-twenty bonds
in gold. Here is Senator Sherman's

Happy in that Sayiour's love:
For thou'rt sleep'ng mother, sleeping

~ one OF natures prodigics. has Just
been discovered near Meadvillc, Frank-
lin county, Miss, causing much excite
ment IN that usually mono,onons VILLAGE.
"A letter from friend residing in that
village, dated June 4. says: "M-- a,
inns time Is very much agitated on ac.
count OF the strange creature seen near
here. 1t is said TO be similar to the one
seen near Vicksburg last fall" A
Vicksburg paper, Of date some few
days subsequen. to tho discovery of tins
strange creature near that place gave a
lull description OF it, and The manner in
which 1t was discovered, which, given
from memory, is in substance about as
follows: Some time in September last,
rs party of huntsmcn driving in the
swamps some few miles from the river,
q trail was taken by The hounds and
followed up at brisk pace, leaving the
party lar behind. In following after the
dogs they discovered the track of the
game in some miry places, which ap-
pearcd similar to the track of human
loot; and they observed also that the
toes OF one foot turned backward. Or
coming up with he i 'gs, who were now
baying, they bcheld a lrghtful looking
creature, Of about the average height of
man. but with far greater muscular de-
vrlopment, standing menacngly n few
yards in front Of the dogs. 1t had long
flowing hair flowing from lis head aud
reaching near its knees its entire body,
also, seemed TO be covered with hair of
two or three inches in length, which
was OF Il dark brown color. From it's
upper jaw protected two very large
tnsks several inches long. It's head aud
lace, 40 well as could be determined
from the distance of the observers, bore
striking resemblance to that Of a negro
except that the chin and cheeks were
covered with long hair. On The noa
approach OF the hunters, it fled with
great rapidi'y towards tho Mississippi
river. and was not ovcrtakcn again until
within few yards of The bank When
the party came np with The dogs the
second time, the monster was standing
erect before them. none of them having
yet dared to clinch with it. But when
he dogs were urged by their masters,
they cndcavorcd TO scHc it, when il
reached forward and grabbed one Of
them. and taking it in his hands, pressed
it against its tuSts, which pierced it
through, and killed it Instantly. Be-
coming alarmed at this display of
strength the hunters fred several shots
at the creature, which caused it to leap
INTO the river. 1t remained under water
several minutes, and then rose almost
