TIE little sons Of Messrs. Tester nm,

TIE little sons Of Messrs. Tester and
1o,ergan concluded, yesterday that they
you'd take hunt in the woods for wild
crab apples. Not returning home in due
season, search was instituted for them,
and they were found in the woods beyond
the camp ground badly lost and bewil-
dered, and not little frightened at the
prospect before them of not being able to
find ANY place." II is thought that the
little fellows have made their last trip
after crab apples.
1t is by no means an uncommon thing
TO hear Radical voters openly avow their
purpose TO vote for Colonel Crebs.. Such
declarations can be heard in the streets of
Cairo, Anna, Shawnectown, Carmi, Mount

trict; but will some individual point us TO
the time and place when and where a Dem

lie IL kt11cd by the Accidental dis
charge OF u Shot gan

Tho friends and relatives of Capt.
Joseph Il. Blake, of Ballard county, have
just received intelligence of his doith, by
the accidental discharge of n shot gun.
1t will be rccollected that Capt Blake
severed business connection with Mr.. {.
c. Davidson, of this city, II short time ago
with the, avowed purpose Of locating in
the State Of Texas. In pursuance Of That
purpose thecaptaig accompanied by Mr..
Hugh ! pshaw, started, intending to make
the greater portion of the trip By land.
They had gained a point
in Arkansas,s beyond Little
Rock where they encountered stretch OF
very rugEid, rock road. While passing
over this road, Capt Blake discovered a
shotgun lying in the bottom of the wagon
bed, and apprehending that the jolting
would ascharge it, cauyhtit by the muz-
1le and attempted 10 remove it. In DO
ing so, he struck tho hammer against the
wagon bed with sufficient force TO explode
the cap. In the twinkling Of an eye the
entire contents of :hc gun-nine bucksho'
were deposited in the Captains breast
Without word or u groan he fell to tho
ground and died. What disposition was
made Of the body we did not lehrn. 2
Captain Blake was an intelligent, en-
tcrprising gentleman, Of great persona

acquired both wealth and distinction
The nows Of his death will come as crush

At Philadelphia, on Tuesday Of last week,
Judge Ludlow, in the court of quarter SEES
sions, delivered the following important
opinion relative to the naturalization Of
cOlored persons:
The act Of Congress approved July II,
1870, entitled IAN act to amend the natural
iEatiOn laws, and to punish crimes against
the same, and for other purposes" declares
(sectiOn seyenb "that the naturalization
laws are hereby extended to aliens of Afri-
can nativity and to persons OF African de-
scent The amendment commonly known
- the fifteenth amendment to the constitu-
ton Of the United States swept away the
distinction Of color, and the section of the
net approved July Ia, 1870, in fact repeats
- to aliens of African nativity and persons
Of African descent SO much of the act Of
twenty-sixth May, 1924, as limits the appli-
cation Of that act to ''free white persons -
An alien Of African nativity or Of African
descent is therefore placed in the position
Of an alien being free white person :" if,
therefore, an African or person of African
descent came into the country before he was
eighteen years of age, and has resided in
the country as is provided by the terms of
the act of Congress Of May 26, 1924, he is
entitled to naturalization.
Satisfactory proof having been made in
this case. it is my plain duty, under the
amendment to the constitution of the
United States. and the act Of Congress APP
proved July IA, 1870, to administer to this
petitioner the oath Of allegiance. a..
