A preacher in one of the most fash
ionable churches of this city said in his
sermon last Sunday: 81 once babtized
colored lady in the Atlantic Ocean,
and although she was as black as she
could convoniontly be, she looked
beautiful 'CoIored lady" is phrase
in harmony with what are called the
advanced ideas of the age, and with
the Africanized religion of the majori-
ty Of our churches. This Wench also
"looked beautiful to the admiring
minister. He held her in his arms as
the cold Atlantic wave strucF her vel
vety skin, no doubt she chung to him
with hope, if not with tenderness.
Then it was that she looked beautiful.
Then it was that the radiant "c0lored
lady" won the admiration of the rev.
erend gentleman. The impression
was so strong that it survived the
shock Of time, and so indellibiy stamp
ed his memory, that he makes it the
subject of a sermon, long years after
wards. An admlrIng tnrOng OF renned
white people, of old men and young
maidens are treated to the merits of a
beautiful black wench, as something
exceeding ali ordinary human excel
Ience. The object Of this kind of ne
gro preaching, is to educate the people
in the political doctrines of the Mon
grel party. Hardly a prayer is now
offered, or sermon preached, in which
some adlniring reference is not made
to the negro. His name is oftener
spoken in the pulpit than the name Of
Jesus Christ, and the ribald infdel is
less condemned than the doubter in
the especial excellence of the negro.
Such vile political sinks are these ne
gro-worahipping pulpits.-N. Y. Day.

ANOTHER TENNESSEE HoKI

ANOTHER TENNESSEE HORROR
Bmchery Of an Entire Fan1jly.-A lit
tie over a week ago d frightfui tragedy
was enacted in Fentress county, Ten
nessee, near the Kentucky line. There
lived in that section a family composed
of an old lady, some eighty years of
of age, and her three grandchildren
one young lady, another a boy Of
twelve and the third small girl. In
the neighborhOod was a man named
L0gsdon, ill-lavOred Of face and of lit
tie character, who in some way became
cognizant of the fact that the Old ladv
had in her POSSESSION considerable a.
mount Of money, the back pay of her
dead son, who had been a soldier, and
he resolved to secure it at all hazards.
Proceeding one night TO the house she
occupied, LogsdOn, with knife and re-
volver, murdered the grand daughter,
and left the boy for dead also. All the
money he found, however, was $75,
and with this he fed. The boy, who
fortunately survived, next day told the
tale of the bloody work of the night,
and the sheriff Of Fentress county, as
soon as he could be notified, started inn
mediately in pursuit Of the murderer
with warrant. He passed through
Clinton county, in this State, where he
was Joined by the sheriff of Clinton, and
together the two sheriffs made their
way to Hustonville, Lincoln comfy.
Here they captured the Murderer at
the house of his father, even Before he
had changed his clothing he wore when
he committed the terrible crime, and
which bore the blood-stains of the cru
ell murder Louisville Courier.

a NUT FOR LETZ.

The Radical speakers and newspa-
pers boasted throughout the late can
V ass that the poor man paid no taxes,
but that the burdens of the government
fell only upon the shoulders of the
rich, who were able to bear them. No
one persisted more in this mendacious
doctrine than the editor of the Hlquir-
er. On several occasions we exposed
this falIacy through the columns of the
GAZETTE. We knew-as we'll as ev-
cry intelligent man i'll the country
knoWs-that we were right, and that
the Radical cry that the poor man paid
no taxes was but an electioneering
dodge. For the benefit of the would
be poor mans friend" we commend
the following to the philosopher of he
Inquirer.
At Richmond, Virginia, Oh Tuesday
last, Mr. Chasc, In his charge TO tie
Grand Jury of the District Court said:
1--WE admonish you, gentlemen, to
exercise your utmost vigilance OH the
subject. Frauds in revenue are an evil

1t is thus seen that Chief Justice

the monied aristocracy of the country,
as the Democratic party holds on this
subject. These combinations are pow

The Cheyenne village of Black Kettles

killed and II wounGed. The tribe is
badly crippled Indians, includ-
ing women and boys, fought with
great desperation from the cover Of
bushes and grass. When driven out
Of the village many of the wounded
effected their escape. The victory was
complete, and will be a wholesome
lesson to the Cheyennes. Black Ket-
tie, the principle chief, was killed.
The casualties are Major George l.. II.
Elliott, Captain Louis M. hamilton
and 19 enlisted men killed and the
wounded are Brevet Lieut.. Col. Al

A NEGRO oFFICE.H0LDER.

1t seems that Gov. Geary has deter
mined not only to carry the load
which his Deputy Secretary of the
Commonwealth, Cara, laid upon his
shoulders in his letter to the recent Af-
rican convention in Harrisburg, but to
weight himself even more heavily by
issuing a commission of Office to a ne
gro, in defiance of the constitution
which he is sworn to support.
one Peter Smith, an african, hos re-
Gently been commissioned 6y the GoUer-
nor, as a constable, or policeman, for the
torn Of 1Heyfa1steia, .SehayitW county.
The Governor, by this action, has set
at naught the constitution of Pennsyl-
vania, which, as every one knows,
does not recognize the negro as quail
fed either to vote or hold Office. He
has deliberately broken his solemn
oath to maintain that constitution, as
well as insulted every white man in
the state, by issuing this commission.
Doubtless, the Governor imagines that
the course he has seen fit to pursue,
will recommend him to the radical
party for denomination. But we are
much mistaken if there be not men,
even in that party, to whom such a
bid for the favor Of the ultra radicals
will bring nothing but disgust. Per-
haps the Governor will find out, some
day, that the white men of PennsyIva-
MIA are net, after all, so very anxious
to take the negro into political partner
ship. If the coming legislature dare
to cheat the people out Of the right to
settle the suffrage question for them
selves, the Governor will learn. to his
hearts content, what it is to stand up
on a Negro Suffrage Platform in the
Keystone State.

sed too large proportion of the taxes

done by the courts, this great wrong
that the Chief Justice so earnestly calls

The Recent Disasters In Switzerland.
An official account of the terrible disas-
ters which have recently happened in
Switzerland, the losses from which can
be counted by millions, has been re-
ceiyed from the American legation at
the State Department, at Washington.
BY fearful rainfall which succeeded
an unusually dry season, much of the
cantons of Grisons, Tessin, the Valais,
Glaris and st. Gall and Uri have, in
consequence thereof, been literally des
olated by inundations. The mountain
Tiyulets and cascades suddenly swelled
to torrents swept villages, hamlets,
cattle, roads, bridges, dikes, earth and
stone as debris upon the fields below,
which are thus rendered forever hope
less wastes. The appeal Of the auth0ri-
ties of the Canton of Tessin to their
more fortunate fellow countrymen Of
ficially sets forth the effects Of the
storm, and this description may be ta-
ken as applicable, in a greater or less
extent, to the other cantons named:
''In the night of the 9th and 18th
September, our canton Was struck bya
frightful catastrophe. A volume of
water percipitated itself as deluge i'm
to the valleys Of Blenio, of the Levan-
tine, the Riviera, he Vernasco and the
Maggia. This scourge was accompan-
led by the destruction of buildings and
by the fall of trees. by earth and rock
slides in such manner as If all the ele-
ments had combined TO rival each 9th
er in the work of devastation. All the
beautiful country that extends from
GiOrnice and Olivone to Biasca, unrec-
ognizable to-day. is nothing but a mass
of debris. Roads, bridges and dykes are
destroyed; houses, mills and stables
have been swept away the rich forests,
the fertile fields and vineyards, but
yesterday fourishing, have disappear
ed cattle have perished by the thou
sands, and that which adds to the con-
sternation is the loss Of more than fifty
persons, some surprised in their sleep,
and others the victims Of their devo-
ton, while attemting to rescue and as
sist the drowning. Fathers and moth
ers Of families have been crushed un-
der the falling houses, and their bodies
swept off by the rushing waters. The
disaster surpasses all that Imagination
can picture. Thousands Of fam
lilies have been struck by the calamity,
and many Of them have been reduced
to the last extremity-without roof,
without clothes, without bread, and
several deprived of their fathers"
Appeals have been made to the be-
nevolent for aid to the despoiled peas
antry Of Switzerland, whose foresight
could not have evaded the terrible blow
which has fallen upon them, and their
cry Of distress goes up not only to their
own countrymen in the United States,
but with equal force to the benevolent
among Americans and residents here
of whatever origin or nationality they
may be.

HORRIBLE AFFAIR NEAR CORNING,
NEW YORK; Girl Murders q Child,
then R0Gsts ii on q &oye.-We have re-
ceived the particulars Of 8 horrible af-
fair which occurred about a mile from
Corning, Wednesday last, November
18th. At the place indicated there re-
sided d family named Mccullough,
consisting Of Mr.. and Mrs. Mccullough
and their three children, aged, respec-
lively five, three and one and half
years.-The husband is represented to
be shiftless, indolent fellow, and his
wife has been compelled to labor to
support the family. She has lately
been selling sewing machines, and on
Wednesday last started on a trip
through the surrounding country for
that purpose, leaving her children in
charge ola girl named Barber, aged
eighteen years, whom she hired for the
purpose. In the evening the youngest
child cried and was fretful, when, it is
said, Barber threw it upon the floor
and stamped upon it until it was al
most lifeless. Then taking the little
one up she held its hands upon a hot
stove until they were terribly burned.
The child was too far gone to utter
more than faint scream while it was
being roasted. Barber then threatened
to throw it into well, when the 9TH
er children, who had witnessed the
whole thing, told her that if she did
they would tell their mother. The
girl then wrapped the child in blank
ct or bed-quiIt, and placed it in a bed,
where it was found by the mother,
who returned home Wednesday night,
dead. the marks Of brutality were
plainly visible on its little body, and,
after questioning the children, infor-
nation was given the c0roner.-After
an investigation he ordered the arrest
OF Barber, called jury, and an inquest
was in session yesterday. The inquest
will be concluded to-day, and it is said
there can be no doubt as to the finding
of the jury. .-RocheSter IN. ~ Union

Buffalo Moving North

Buffalo in unusual numbers have dur
ing the past month, crossed the rail
road track on the Union Pacific Road,
L. D., between Fort Harker and Hays
City, mostly in the vicinity of Bunker
Hill. \ gentleman just from Hays
City says the train was detained three
times in order to allow of the passing Of
the uncOuntod believing herds which
sweep over the Plains. The herds this
season are moving north, fact quite
unusual, as generally at the approach of
winter these animals, obaying the laws
OF instinct, migrate southwark, where
the climate is milder and grass more
plentiful. The cause of the buffalo mo-
wing towards the north this season is
said by Old hunters and ranchemen to
be the presence of great numbers of
troops and Indians on their accustom-
ed feeding grounds. However this
may be, there is promise of fine hunt
ing the coming winter i'll the territory
watered by the Republican fork, be-
tween the Platte and Smoky Hill
routes, where they will be undisturbed
by the Indians, as the latter have
mostly been forced to evacuate that re-
giOn.
