A Hel,ltiG,l EIGnrc.

Lifo is like 4 fountain fed by q
thousand streams that perishes if
one be dried: it is q silver cord twist
cd with II thousand strings, that
parts asundcr if one bo broken.
Thoughtlcss mortals are surrounded
by innumorablo dangers which
make it much moro strange that
they escape SO long, than that they
almost all perish suddenly at last.
We are encompasscd with acci-
dents every day sufficient to crush
the dccaying tcnomcnts VIC inhabit.
The seeds OF disease are planted in
our constitution by Nature The
earth and the atmosphere whence
we drawthc breath Of life are i'm
pregnated with death; health is
made to operate its own destruction.
The food that nourishes contains
the clements of decay; the soul that
animates it by viYifying first tends
to wear it out by its own action;
death turks in ambush along the
paths. Notwithstanding the truth
is so palpably confirmed by the
daily eaxrnple before our eyes, how
little do we lay it 10 hearu We see
our friends and neighbors die; but
how seldom docs it occur TO our
thoughts that our knell may next
give Tho warning TO the world.

EsIetIsOe's Case.

"Hy time" says Hosea Bigelow
II du like Il man that amt afGard.' "
Something Of the same admiration
is due to our present House of Rep.
rcscntativcs. "Whero there is u will
there is way" says the proverb.
Tho House having the will to rule
the State, is bound to find tho way,
and "ain't afoard" to use il. When
II man will not vote as the niaiority
desire, he is forthwith turned out.
Ills head is clipped off with y cclor-
ity that is truly astonishing. 1t
would be Il poor House that had not
an Imagination large enough to
draw up u bill of charges against
any body. A half dozen men have
been turned out and others subsLi
tutcd against whose election there
was not Il particle Of valid objection
Now it is proposed to get rid Of the
Comptroller. Tho Governor de-
mands his impeachment. Mr.. Blcd-
soc, the Comptroller, is an honest
man, and as bitter n radical MS even
Morgan Hamilton desires to seo.-.
Mr.. Bledsoe's offense is this: when
the legislators passed its bill for sal
ary and mileage, it adopted as the
schedule that the pay should be S.
for every twenty-five miles and
fraction Of twenty-five miles. Thus
the distance of Austin from Calves.
ton was fixed at 47G miles, the leg.
islators claimed eight dollars for the
fractional miles. One hundred and
sixty dollars Was the mileage they
claimed. Mr.. Blcdsoe adhered to
the old custom, and offered one hun-
dred and fifty-two dollars and thir-
ty-threo cents. The same difficulty
occurred in many parts Of the State
Again, the laws forbid military
officer, who is detailed for duty un-
der the reconstruction act, from re-
ceiving any other salary than his
proper pay and allowance.
In defiance of this law, we arc in
formed that numerous other officers
have drawn both civil and military
pay. 10 this Mr.. Bledsoe did then
object and docs now. 1t is also re-
ported that Mr.. Blcdsoe puts on his
glasses and scrutinizes printing bills,
and has way of asking questions
that is not pleasant, for which i'm
pertinencc and bad manners it is
proposed to impeach him and give
his office to some more pliable man.
Mr.. Bledsoe is about seventy, a man
of large frame and powerful ply
sique. In early life he was account
ed the strongest man in Kentucky,
and has a great deal Of his native
vigor left. He carries n large cane
which has a number of allegorical
knots and figures, which he is fond
of explaining TO the curious. If he
will take his cane and wallop every
legislator that approaches with a
dishonest claim, we will engage to
protect him from impeachment.

THE Republic cf Washington is
orerthrotn, and Mut Of J0hA Bropn
EXISTS in its steadI The Republic of
Washington, all men know, was q
NAitc RepuJ'ic, and the thing pro
sided over by Grant, all men know,
is Mongret concern, and that that
"loyal' soul was elected, and now
acts as President, absolutely and
solely by the vote Of niggcrs in the
South just Exactly It's designed, and,
indeed, provided for, in the famous
John Brown "Amondmcnts' in 1858,
Nor is it the Executive or so called
President that is the creature OF mig
ger votes alone-the Congress, or
Thing called Il Congress, is composed
of the representatives Of Ncv, Eng
land and Of Southern niggcrs they
make up the majority, and pass all
our laws, and the seventy "Dcmo-
cratic" members Of that body have
no more TO do with the legislation
of the country, or influence on it,,
than their great srandfathers that
lived before the Revolution. There
are some seventy Democrats, some
of them-Judge Woodward, Thur
man, James Brooks, Morgan, &c
really first class mon; but we repeat
the amazing and accursed Jttct, they
have Absolutely no more power or
influence on the legislation Of the
country than any similar number
of idle niggcrs lying about the "Bn.
reau" in Washington, or roaming
loose about the plantations of South
Carolina. Will any one venture to
dispute this assertion, or dare TO say
that any Legislation in Congress,
since the war closed. has been con-
trolled or influenced in any respect
whatever by the Democratic mem
bcrs of that body? Certainly not.
Everything bas gone on just as ii
they did not exist, and though some
times the Mongrels condcscend TO
permit them to talk little bun
combe, perhaps for the benefit Of
their "home interests" and on some
rare occasion may possibly permit
a Cox or Brooks to make an amend

everybody knows its truth, the Mon

uniformly enacted its laws as its
