1;s,;,uuishcd OK Governor

A distinguished ex Governor OF
Ohio, famous for storytelling, relates
that on one occasion, while he was al
dressing o temperance meeting at
Georgetown, District of Columbia, and
depicting the miseries caused by too
freely INDUCING in the flowing bowl,
HE attention was attracted by the sobs
of o disconsolate and scedy looking in
dividual seated in the rear part OF the
room. On going to the person and in
terrogating him, the Governor was told
the usual tale Of woe; among other sad
incidents, that during his career of vice
he had buried three wives. The Gov.
ernor having buried a few wives of
bis own, sympathized deeply with the
inebriate, and consoled him as much
Is wal in his power. Said he: "The
Lord has indeed deeply afflicted you"
The mourner, sobbing, replied "Y-yes
He has" and, pausing a moment, and
wiping his nose, continued, "but l don't
think the Lord got much ahead of me,
for a. fast as He took one, ] took an,
other"

Defeat of Negro Suffrage in Mich
igan.

The Washington correspondent OF
the Cincinnati Commercial tclcgraphs
on the 7th inst. as follows:
oThe defeat of the negro suffrage
Constitution in Michigan has caused
more surprise and comment in Con
gressional and political circles than the
Democratic triumph in Connecticut,
for the reason that the Congressional
policy was the direct issue. The ad
wees received from Republican quar-
lcrs led to the belief that Constitution
would be ratified by II very decided
majority"
The result ofthe Michigan election
has demonstrated what wehavc repeat
edly charged. that the white Radicals
of the North do not want the negro to
vote, except in the Southern States,
where it is necessary to have MIN vote
in order that Radicals may get the Of
fees. The negroes ought to have
sense enough by this time to see that
such is the casc.-N ashviW DisPatch.

their attempt to break down the barrie'

Man, the Jacobins are bringing on a war
of Races. He has seen the country must
soon become bankrupt in order to sustain
a large standing army to elevate the negro
above the position which his natural char
actcristics fit him, and this attempt on the
part of these Jacobins is all hypocrisy so
far as any real love TOR the negro is con-
ccrned--that it is only for the purpose OF
securing all the offices for themselves, ana
that if they could succeed in their lnferli'

An ENGLISH NoBLEMAN's PERQUIsITEs.
Lord Willoughby d. Eresby's duties as Lord
Chamberlain include carrying the royal wear
ing apparel to the Sovereign on the day Of
coronation, for which he receives as his per-
quisites the bed and furniture OF the royal
chamber, and the Sovereign's nightgown also.
Besides this, at dinner time he serves the
monarch with water, and has the towels and
basins as his.
1t is bT such means as this that funkeyism
is made respectable and remunerative among
the bold Britishers. And this titled waiter is
dubbed "a nobleman" while the people who
pay the taxes out Of which these perluisites
are furnished are constitutionally snubbed
as "plebians."

| treaties which have been made with foreign
powers, and particularly alluded to the I'M
portant one Just concluded with the United
States, which, he said, was designed to define
and regulate nationality and consequent ma
| tional obligations of emigrants from Ger

quiet all dissensions between the countries

now prevailed among the nations Of Europe.
