He Was Nightly Grievcd.
V cry truly,
Louis Froelich.

In his speech in Petersburg,
we believe, Wells stated that at
one time he believed the test
oath would be stricken out of
the constitution; but such had
been the manner of conductin g
the election that he thought it
very propable that it would now
be voted into the constitution
and adopted with it. That
must have grieved him might
lily. With tears in his eyes he
confessed it to Gen. Candy.
A matronly wolf, whose den
was not so far off from the

shall be compelled to eat a few
Of them. 'Lor, mai replied
