The Ku-Klux Ontragess

THE Congressional Investigating Com
mittee is developing more and more evi-
dence of the Ku-Klux outrages, and thus
steadily tightening the rope of justice
about the Democratic neck. The joy that
beamed forth when such characters as
General Forrest repudiated his former tes-
timony and denied the existence of any
such order, has given way to gloom, as
witness after witness testifies exactly to
the contrary. Colonel Higgins, for
merly of Ohio, has narrated his experience
in Mississippi last March. He was seized
by band of over hundred disguised
men, ordered, under penalty of death, to
leave the country within ten days, whip
ped, and left insensible. He testified to
other instances of schools broken up,
teachers grossly maltreated, and ministers
murdered or driven of, and all for the
avowed reason that the brigands "pro-
posed to rid the country of Radical office
holders" With such facts daily coming
to light, it is not wonderful that the party
organs attempt to forestall the publication
of the evidence, by ridiculing the commit
tee and misrepresenting its objects. The
action of the government in suppressing
this order will be more than vindicated.-

'eclipsed,' or hidden. This happens about
twice year. 1t is not often entirely
ridden, however, but more frequently
passes somewhere across the edge of the
great shadow, SO that We can see a large
part of its round, bright face, and may
watch the eclipse passing slowly over one
side of it, until, like shining silver bub-
bic, it floats out again Into the light. You
are net to suppose, though, thai the moon
is really q bubble. By no means. 1t is a
round, solid earth, ss solid as our own,
and probably made of very much the same
sort OF rock, only it is not nearly so large.
1t would take fifty moons to make such an
earth as this, and we have about four
teen times as much room on the outside
of our world as the little people in the
moon-if there are any there-haye upon
theirs.
1.-The sun, you know is bright with its
own light, as fire is, but the moon, just
like our earth, is bright only while the
sun shines upon it. Therefore, when we
are between it and the sun, or, what is
saying the same thing in other words,
when it comes into our shadow, it is in
the dark, and cannot be seen. That is
what we mean when we say that the moon
shines by reflected light.
"The moon is the earth's little daughter,
AMI hhC ASA AAObnCl, ACCChNCs ud1AS
from the sun, and has conical shadow,
or night of her own. Her day lasts for q
whole fortnight, and so does her night.
That is a very long day and night for such
little world, is it nots
Sometimes all the bright daylight side
is turned toward us and then we say the
moon is full /; sometimes all the dark night

When tiny narrow strip of the bright
side begins to peep round again, we call it
the new moon.
times as large as ours, this earth must
be for the good folks therel Only, as it
happens that the same half of the moon
is always turned this way, the people on
the other half if they want to have look
at US, must take long journey in order
to enjoy that pleasure.
sometimes We appear full moon to
them, and sometimes new, as our moon
does to us; but instead of rising in the
east and setting in the west, we always
seem to stand still, just in the same part
of the sky. The people who live in the
center of that half of the moon which is
turned toward us see directly over their
heads all the time.

about the sun, and the moon, and the
stars, and the earth, and will soon, If you
like to hear, but not now, for, see while
we have been talking, the great earth
shadow has crept silently over us, and is
pressing, down your sleepy eyelids.-

Mr.. BARRY, in his work on Russia in
1870, tells story of the time when slave
~ was an Institution in that country: A
certain ironmaster caused man who had
offended him to be locked up in an iron
cage, and kept him confined in 1t for a
length of time. At last, while he was ao-
sent On journey, the case of his wretched
prisoner came to the knowledge of the
Governor of the province. The Governor
caused the man, cage and all, to be brought
to the government town, and invited the
tyrannical ironmaster to dinner. Alter
dinner was over, the Governor sent for q
Quail in a wooden cage, and offered to sell
it to his guest for 10000 roubles- The
offer being treated as a joke, the Gov
ernor said he had q more valuable bird to
to sell, and told his servants to bring tin.
Folding doors flew open and the iron cage
with its miserable captive was set down
before the astonished guest. "Nowr' said
the Governor, "what do you think of that
for quail? But this is very expensive
bird, i want 10000 roubles for him" "All
right" said the alarmed proprietor, Il
will buy this one and send it down to my
works without the cage, and your messen-
ger shall bring back the amount" Inc
matter was thus pleasantly settled, and the
company adjourned to their papirosses and
coffee.

Clambering up TO the table and shelf,

Pulling The needles and thimble= about,
Sewing her apron, demurr as you please;

Iumoles and bumps twenty mes in an hour;
ranging the yarn and unravcling the lace,
Doing IL ali with the prettiest grsce.i

the latitude of beer, and not the lougi-
tude of whisky! Why make fish of
one aud flesh of another?
1t is well to preach-it is we'll to pray
but it lie better far to act as well our part
as 10 US lies. 1t is well to approach this
question with q due appreciation of its
importance, and of our individual respon-
slbIlity, and to deposit our votes for those
who will execute the law precisely as we
would do it ourselves, were il directly in
our power. This conscientiousy done,
it becomes further duty of ours to en-
courage our officers to sustain the law ia
good faith.
There is no triumph here as on a bat
tie field. The victors may be the van
pushed, and their seeming victory NAV
prove to be the harbinger of their own
destruction. No one would invade the
rights of his neighbor. Freedom of
thought, and freedom to express our
thoughts. so long as our expressions are
couehed in respectful language, are sacred
rights. Freedom to cast our votes for
what and for whom we choose, and upon
all questions and under all circumstances
on rights equally sacred.
And there this question sands it is
an important one, and how shall each
decide, since he must?
The rule is plain one: We must i'm
agine the law las it really ISL to be in
our own hands. and then inquire, how
shall we nse 2" Shall we grant, or

As to the soundness of the policy OF
bringing this question directly before the
people at the present time, we have not
a word to offer, save that it is as well
now as ever. We have no other impor
tant issue, either in county or town. that

ride-no roads to establish, and no bal.

all other respects, there will doubtless be
