H. E. HIGHToN, Esq, a we'll known
lawyer, lost himself in the mountains,
near Geyser Spring, California, while
hunting, about a week since. During
his wanderings of two days and half,
in which he had no food, he wounded
himself in enc of his arms by the acci-
dental discharge of his rifle. A reward
was offered to q couple of mountaineers
to 90 in search of the missing man, ana
they were finally successful. MIR. High
ton was found in very exhausted con-
dition.

The Iusurrectiou Question.

A Washington dispatch says that the
letter from YARMOUTH, carpet bag Gov
ernOr Of Louisiana, in regard to
thevialleged threatened insurrection
in that State, has been refer
red by the President to Gen.
eral SCHoFIELD, with instructions to
report some general rule, TO govern all
similar cases. 1t is also stated that the
President will send no Federal troops
to any State unless some insurrection-
airy movement is apparent, and it can
not be controlled by the State author
tiles.
If this rule had been adopted long
ago, West Virginia would not have
been disgraced by the presence Of
troops, ostensibly to preserve order, but
actually to disfranchise her citizens and
enable the Ra.ical party to carry the
elections. The soldiers sent into Bar
bour county last Fall, under the mis-
representations of interested parties,
were about as necessary to enforce order
there as ten regiments would be
to keep the peace in Ohio county.
They were taken there to inaugurate
kind of terrorism and protect guilty
and cowardly gang of Registrars in
striking the names of several hundred
qualified voters from the lists. After
the accomplishment of this rascaliy
business, and when, as con
sequence thereof the Radical
party had carried the Barbour
county election, "order reigned In
Warsaw" The people of the county
remained, as they had been, peaceful
and submissive; even under the heaped
up outrages laid upon them, they at
tempted no retaliation or retrlbution
upon those who had robbed them OF
their rights they were patient ander
the WRONG as they had been peaceful
prior to its commission.
A similar injustice was done by quar-
tering troops in the Greenbrier Valley
They were sent there under the repre-
sentations of NAT. HARRISON, a person
whose name the Radicals of this section
are ashamed to print or mention. AL
though he is not worthy of theli
acknowledgements, he is convenient al
an agent, and his statements concern
ing the condition of thingsin his section
are held to justify the kinS of response
made by Governor FOREMAN in sending
the military to suppress mutiny whiel
never had an existence. CYRUS NEW
LIN is another creature of the kind tha
can always get military force to pu
down imaginary instructions. Why :
il that our authorities are so ready III
case of this sort, to rely upon the state
ments of rotten partisans whom, di'
they sbey their consciences, they wcult
not believe on oath !
We are glad to see that, at last, tn
President is inclined to be more care
full in carrying on this military bust
ness. We are glad to see that he want
proof of the necessity for troops before
he sends them into every State wher
Radical exigencies may demand them
Keep these bayonets away from peaceful
people, using them only against lawless
ness toe powerful for local authority t'
master, and not only West Virginia
but other States, will soon have th'
present rulers in retirement, and re
SD ectable party in power.

in Tennessee hold themselves at o higt

At Bedford, Pennsylvania, on Monda!
night, a fine Seymour and Blair meeting
was held. General Miller, of Harris
burg, and Mr.. Spear, of Huntington
spoke.
Judge Mcdonald, of Middle Court
in Florida, has just been removed by
Col. Flint with q military force; and
vet civil law has been restored in thai
Statei
The State candidates of the Democracy
in Illinois have had conference at Jo
liet, and they concur in the beliel
that the State will be carried by
decided majority for Seymour and
Blair.
During the war the Radicals insisted
that the President was the Government
Now they are running a man with no
ideas for President. This puts their esti-
nation of the Government at a high
rate.
The Radicals called Grant meeting
in the Fifth ward of New York ON Mon
day night, at which they had six men to
speak, and only four men came to hear.
An adjournment was unanimously
agreed to.
The Chicago Post recently considered,
"Can Democrat be savedS" and an
swered, Hardly" We beg to inquire
then, eff the Democrats can scarcely be
saved, how shall the Radicals appear 2"
The Tribune is authority for the state
ment that the search through the Col
fax family record has been "by no
means profitable" Except his blessed
old grandfather, who eft inter the Rev.
olution," Schuyler has had no relatives
worth mentioning.
In regard to the proposition to deprive
the Southern States of a popular cleo
tion, by throwing the choice of the cleo
tors into packed Legislature. the
Springfield Republican,, Radical paper,
"hopes that no Republican worthy to
be called leader has given his sane
tion to such nonsense"
Scenting the fell designs of its Own
party, the Brooklyn Union declares that
the danger of the hour is that the "peo-
ple will become accustomed to the pos
sibility of insurrection," and put the
warning in italics. The people will put
the would-be insurrectionists in small
caps and loaded coffins if they show their
hand.
An intelligent and reliable contraband
of New Orleans came to Colonel Gerard,
his former master, recently, and told
him that he had been elected Justice of
the Peace for the Parish of Ouachita,
but as he could neither read nor write,
he would like to know whether he could
not draw his pay without going to the
place himself.
A correspondent of the Providence
Herald, writing from New Haven, says
an old Republican from a neighboriDg
town spoke to him about the recent
great Seymour asd Blair ratification
meeting in New Haven, and said: "Our

A RIPLEY (Ohio) paper says that an
elm tree in the neighborhood, which
was set on fire by a party of young men
for the purpose of catching coons, on
the 10th day of February last, is still
burning. The fire was commenced
about fifty feet from the ground, and
has burned down to about twelve feet.
Some time in October the coons will
have to surrender, according . the rate
at which the tree has been burning
The coons have not far to go, and the
young men have had far to get.

Report from German Teachers,

New YORK, August 1O.-The Associa-
ton of German American Teachers,
which meets every two weeks in this
city, have submitted report OF the ed
ucational system pursued by them to
the Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion in Washington. 1t appears that
German children going to regular
schools in this country usually forget
the language of the fatherland. SCHOOLS
were first organized to do away with
this state of affairs. These have, in the
course of time, been greatly i'm
proved, until now they are claimed to
be equal to the best schools in Germany.

join the Liberal organization. This
is a significant circumstance, and
shows how strong is the tide of pro-
gress, even in countries where the
military arm surrounds and shadows
man and his rights. The party of
progress and advancement in Italy
are also steadily gaining ground.
Garibaldi inaugurated the move
ment, and it still progresses, slowly,
it is true, but enough to show that
the fire of Republicanism is alive in
the hearts of the people, and only
needs a favorable opportunity to
burst into fame and light the
valleys and hill tops with the beams
of constitutional liberty. Napoleon
watches the friends of a republican
form of government in France, with
sleepless vigilance and the liberal
press is pursued with unrelenting
severity. The editors of the
| Temps, Tribune, Journal de Paris,
ReUeiIIe, and L'AUenir have
been summoned to appear be-
fore the civil tribunals, to answer
charges made against them of dis
satisfaction with the government
and not a demonstration is allowed
that may even in remote contin
gency, initiate against the security
of his power, the perpetuati n o
, his dynasty. But despite all thi
r care and watchfulness, liberal idea
are on the advance in France, as i
all other portions of Europe, an

| produce & goodly harvest of results
: At all events the present aspect {
affairs in Europe is more encoui
