A PROCLAMATION by Governor
Gratz Brown, of Missouri, calls
out the militia of Stoddard
and Dunkin counties, in the
southeastern part of Missouri,
to break up the secret maraud
ing bands which infest that
section. An officer from the
State Adjutant Generals office
reports bands to the number OF
three hundred or more, burn,
ing, numbering, maltreating
and robbing; sallying, fol this
purpose, in disguise, at night,
from the morasses of that sec
ton. He says they have no
political design, though they
originally had. But he does
not deny that their victims are
always Republicans, black or
white, and those who tolerate
and sympa.hize with them are
invaribly Democrats. 1t is to
be hoped that Governor
Browns measures Will be sharp
and decisive. If they are not
the value OF the example set
by Missouri in the matter of
amnesty will be very seriously
lessened.

CHRISTMAS TniE.-The days are short and the
air iu chill; but the thoughts Of mems hearts,
and the tones Of their voices, and the grasp Of
Of their hands grow kindlier at the Christmas
tide It is the season wnen the striies of self
seeking are quoted, when the grudges thst grow
out OF them are forgotten; when the poor are
remembered; when to do good and communicate
is the ruling motive It is the season for the
giving Of gifts the commerce Of love for a little
while exceeds all other exchanges.
For many weeks before Christmas the gifts
are preparing in The household. Through all
these days the children are full Of mystery. They
seem TO have acquired new and strange fond
ness for solitude. You catch glimpses Of
candles burning IN their rooms long after you
had supposed they were asleep and some
times they anticipate for hours the rising
Of the tsrdy December sun, and are porting
diligently over their books by lamplight when
you bid them Good morning. This new interest
in study is remarkable, and you have your sus-
picionE, though you do not mention them.
Often before you enter room where they are,
which in these days you always do with come
rustling. and find them Hurried and hushing
when you 60 in. So the work of preparation
gees on. Little fingers are busy upon cunning
devices Of needle-work youthful minds are
eager to invent some tasteful testimony Of love.
