that the special tax be fixed sum; no

A friend of ours was coming to New
York from Albany, and just opposite
him in the Car sat lady and her child,
the latter beautiful little girl, with
wonderfully bright eyes and a sweet,
wipsoms face-the very picture, in min.
iature, of her mother. She attracted
much attention, aud won many smiles
aud tender glsnces, as she moved about
the seat. An elderly gentleman walk
ing through the car looked isto the be-
wiiching things eyes, aud was fascina-
ted at once. Stopping, he lovingly pat
ted her cheek, and asked: "Won't yeu
give me kiss, pretty onei like to
kiss little girls" She looked at him
yery ar:hly for an instant, and then
propouuded the rather embarrassing
question: "Would't you rather kiss
motherr

Another PIedxe-Brenker.

There is a manifest disposition in
some counties to "mOve or the works
of some of the "let up" members of the
Legislature, who broke the pledges on
which they were elected. The Parkers-
burg Gazette tenders its respects to
Mr.. JAMES GATHER, whom the Dem
ocrats of that District, last Fall, elected
to the Senate. 1t recalls his votes in
opposition to all notifications of the
registration law, and proves his solemn
pledges, made prior to the election, to
support reform in that direction, il
the Democrats would support him. The
Ga=ttte reproduces the following letter
GLENvILLE, October 10, 1869.
Mr.. p. PEw-Dear Sir Since our
conversation in regard to my becoming
a candidate for the Senate, have con-
cluded to give you some Of my views.
l claim that it is just and right that
Gilmer county should have the repre-
sentative at this time, as she has never
had Senator since the formation of the
State.
| declared myselfa candidate for that
office aboutth lst of August last, and
thes, as now, was of the opinion that
the time has arrived for the removal OF
the many disabilities imposed upon a
large class of our citizens.
Ii the people will favor Inc with their
support, will pledge myself, in good
,,,k 80 30 fnr he pF
yer's teachers and suitor's test oaths,
and pill .fdror ANY more to entrdnchise the
disentraRchised Of our State.
In my opinion, the time has come for
the removal of all disabilities, and the
most speedy and effective remedy should
be resoIted to at once.
1 am also in .farOr Of modifying the reg
istrdtiOn lap.
In answer to the inquiry made by my
friend, Mr.. Leonard, the present Sena'
tor, and other friends, in Parkersburg,
in regard to my views about the Capt.
tai question, if elected, believing it to
be the duty of any representative to
carry out the will and wishes of his
constituents, and believing large ma
iority of my constituents will be in IA
vor Of the Capital at ParkersbIrg l
will do all can, if elected, for the in
terest of Parkersburg for the Capital.
Hoping the above will be satisfactory
and that may receive the support OF
all that look to the prosperity and ad-
vsncement of our new State, / an, re-
spectfully, Yours, &C.,
JAMES GATHER.
The line of defense to be adopted by
GATHER and his kind can readily be an.
ticipated. They will howl, as the Intel
ligeacer did in the FARNswoRrH case,
that they are being prosecuted for re-
fasing to vote with the Democrats,
Now if it is any persecution to expose q
man who has dishonored his pledges, SO
it. But if it is such disgrace to be
caught voting with Democrats, is it not
equally disgraceful to seek Democratic
support and then deliberately break the
promises made to obtain iti As the
case now stands the Republican party
sanctions the practice of political
pledge-breaking and treachery. The
moral tone of the party is thus finely
illustrated.

The Oueida Disaster .

Speaking of the Oueida disaster, the
New York Herald. says: "The conduct o.
the captain of the steamer Bombay
which ran down the Oneida, looks al
the worEe the more we see of it. He
must be q very careful and attentive
captain who knows so little of what
happens to his ship that he can collide
with another with such force as to drive
a timber completely through the side oI
his own ship at the water line, and
hardly be aware of the circumstance
But we believe this captains ignorance
of the collision and his haste to leave
the scene of the occurrence has another
explanation. In case of such a collision
at sea the owners Of his ship might be
come liable for damage done to the
other ship, and the captain ras away
from the accident in the hope to escape
ideutifcation-perhaps, let us hope, not
thinking that such fearful loss of life
might eRsue. This explanation does
not say much for the captains manly
spirit, but it is the only one consistent
with his sobriety."
