GAME.-Old sportsmen Of this city say that
game is by no means so abundantin Virginia as
the newspapers would have US believe. They
say great parade and fuss is made over one
party who happens to kill a few cartridges
and rabbits, but nothing is said of the
scores who 90 forth to the field and come back
empty handed. They represent that the glow
ing accounts of the abundance of game in Vir-
giuia, have attracted huntsmen from the most
distant States, who have journeyed hitherto only
to be disappointed in their search. Some OF
these distant game hunters have in some In
stances, sold their apparatus to procure deer
and other game, at the different railroad stations
in order to make show when they return
ed to town.

Cen. RuckIand,s speech.

On the first page of the Journal we
print a speech by the Hon. R. P. BUCK
LAND, on impeachment, delivered in the
House of Representatives on the oath
ult. It's clear in statements of fact,
strong in argument and in conclu-
sions unanswerable. Gen. BUCKLAND
is Corking rather than talkative
member, but on important measures,
where an expression of opinion is
called for, no man speaks more to the
point, or presents his ideas in clearer
shape. What he says carries with it
the conviction Of earnestness, delibera-
ton, and complete mastery of the
subject, and he commands the attention
of the House-something many of the
glib members fail to do. Tie people
of the Ninth District have substan-
tiaI, clear-headed, hard-working, in
fuential Representative, whom they
will do well to retain in Congress.

Missionaries Needed in oberlin.

The oberlin MeCS, speaking of the
condition of the negroes of the South,
as reported by j. M. LANGsToN, who
has Just retained from tour of obser-
vation in that section, says: "Ihey Icere
ensaRcipdted too soon, and hare been
sloy to learn the UGlue Of money and
the necessity Of labor" This is a curl
Gus remark TO come from Oberlin. As
the tendency of slavery was TO make
labor hateful 10 the slave and to dissi-
pate all his notions of the value of
property, one would suppose that the
sooner he was enancipated the quicker
be would learn the value of money and
the necessity of labor. But according
to the logic of the Ne'0s the slave
should have acquired these virtues be-
fore emancipation. "Boys should
never 90 into water until they have
learned to SWIM" 0berlin! you must
keep your end up better than that.

Chief Jnsfica Chase.

Looking at the lifelong record in the
anti-slavery cause of Chief Justice
CHASE, we would be slow TO believe
the thickening rumors from Washing
ton of his probable detection from the
Union party. His whole public life
nas been an unceasing and eloquent pro-
test against the system of slavery, and
the efforts of the Democratic party to
debauch the people. His bitterest
enemies have always been Democrats.
His life has been elevated, noble and
inspiring to young men. In all his
long career of eminent usefulness and
great industry, he has never had a
thought or a feeling in sympathy with
any political organization in the least
tainted with such heresies as now form
Democratic doctrine. 1t seems incred
ible that such man should turn his
back on = record of that kind; and,
while we concede that his disappoint-
ment may be deeper than the baffled
politicians chagrin, still think he cannot
let himself down to the politicians
despicable means of revenge. And yet
statesmen after all are mere weak men.
WEBSTER, the god-like," and SEWARD,
the eloquent champion of Human
Rights, undeE the disappointment of
blasted hopes, turned traitors, and de-
serted to the enemy's camp. Failure
10 grasp the loDg-coveted prize of the
Presidency sours the best of our states
men. Chief Justice CHASE may be
like others. Reports from Washing
ton say his best friends set him down
as shaky, and many Radicals think he
will figure for the Democratic nomina-
ton, or permit himself to be run as a
tbird-party candidate. Several Demo
cratic papers have already hoisted his
came, aud the rest, even those in the
South, have taken 10 praising him
unctiously. Ii these adulations are
acceptable TO him, aud it he really
lneditates stampede to the Copper
head camp, none will be more thank
ful than the large CHASE party among
Republicans that the GRANT movement
rendered his nomination impossible.
The Republican party can afford to pay
even as high a price as the loss Of
Chief Justice CHASE TO find out their
man. Itis well to discover before the
nomination what possibilities of evil
lurk in the character of the man who
is to be honored with their trust.
