=" Observation-Disclosures. The
above is the euphonious term which
the Demokrat applies to the local
of this paper for saying that the
Lutherans observed Lent, with the
further remark that the writer of the
six sgllabled ezpletive belongs to that
faith, aud never heard of such
thing.
The asser ton, probably is true that
the Lutherans do not fast; therein,
the local aforesaid was wrong. but
among some of the Lutherans, at least.
Lent is observed as a season of absti-
nence from festivities.
The ideal that Lent was generally
observed by them, was gained by con-
versations with American Lutherans,
who do so observe it, and was further
strengthened by the knowledge that
many German Lutherans celebrate
Shrove Tuesday and Easter Monday
with brilliant balls, thus following
the habit of Catholic communities of
marking the days preceding and fol-
lowing Lent as seasons of Carnival.
The s. new local" the Democrat so
loves to refer to, congratulates the wri-
ter of the article on finding so excel
lent an opportunity to employ eighteen
letters Of the alphabet, In getting up
the breaker be hurls. Try it again,
and use the whole alphabet. You may
succeed in saying something smart.

A LITTLE Boy Run OvER-A lit
tie SON of P. L. Geissler, Esq, jewel
err en- Main street, was run over yes
terday, by bakers wagon,
The little boy who is only six years
old, vas returning from the Ninth
street school, aud when crossing
Main street at Eighth was struck on
the head by one of the shafts of the
wagon, knocked down, and run over.
The driver, whose attention had
been for moment diverted, saw the
boy Just as be fell, and as the little
fellow uttered no cry, he supposed
that the horse had trodden upon and
killed him.
Stopping his wagon as soon as pos
sible, he went to the boy. who had
risen to his feet, and was greatly re-
lieved to find that neither the horse
nor wheels had touched the child, and
the cut on his head occasioned by the
blow of the shaft was the only injury
he sustained.
That the horse and wagon passed
over him without ipjuring him more
severely, seems almost miracle.
The baker seems to have been
driving very rapidly and carelessly,
and the boy had his attention attracted
in some other direction, and did not
see the horse approaehingi but the
accident has given lesson to both
that will not soon be forgotten.
twas difficult to know whether the
baker or the boy were the most
frightened. As the baker seemed
very sorry that his earelessness should
have been productive of such an acct
dent. his name will be Withheld.

ape the iudioious moderation and faultless
taste of Edward Everett. He plesses neither
Democrats nor Republicans, because 1t IS !
moral necessity that he should be-himself.
In intention and conception General But
ler's amnesty bill is wise, but 1T is badly
drawn and requires much amendment 1t
aims to relieve participants in the Rebellion
from all penalties and disabilities; but it
excepts certain classes of persons from the
operation of the act Democrats of course
object to the EXCEPTIONS and If there was
any chance of passing q more liberal measure
than Buffers, it would be hood Democratic
tactics 10 defeat his bill for the sake of bet
ter substitute. But bill conceived in the
same spirit as his is as good one as has any
chance of passing at present; and the practical
question is, whether relief shall be refused
to some because it cannot yet be given to
all. We believe it wise and judicious to re-
lieve as many as we can, as soon as we can,
and trust to the growth of liberal sentiments
to complete the work. If complete and uni
versal amnesty cannot be carried through
this Congress, that is no good reason why
thousands of Southern citizens should be
kept under the harrow If they could be
promptly relieved by the aid of Democratic
votes We have no doubt that General But
ler is correct in his belief that universal am
nesty cannot be carried in this Congress; and
despairing of anything better, we should be
sincerely glad to see as much done as he pro-
poses.
But General Buffers BILL though wise and
right in intention, and as comprehensive in
scope as this Congress will bear, is crude and
badly drawn. He ought to consent to
thorough recast and simplifcation of its
phaseology and important notifications
of its provisions. Its language is cum
brous, circuitous, overloaded with the pecu-
liarities of the antique and legislative style
which confuses by its redundant enumera-
tiors and falls into obscurity by its attempts
to guard against possible cavil. The bill
is thrice as long as it ought to be, and is
framed in many respects without careful
discrimination. It contains some pro-
visions which, under the fourteenth
amendment, can be passed only by two-thirds
of Congress, and others may be Epassed by a
simple majority. Some parts of it interfere
with the proper jurisdiction of the courts,
and among his exceptions there are things so
crude and hasty that the courts could not re-
spect them if they we're enacted. But we
nevertheless think that an amended bill con-
ceived in the same spirit as General Buffers,
free from it's technical verbosity, and avoid
ing its ill-considered provisions, would bring
relief to large classes of Southern citizens,
who must wait an indefinite period if the
liberal members of Congress will vote for no.
thing short of universal amnesty. 1t does not
become practical legislators to act like chill
dren who cry for the moon.
