A LADY AND CHILD ATTACKED ON
THE PUBLIC HIGHwAY BY A WOUNDED
DEER.--Last Saturday as Mrs. Thomas
Burchard was going from homo to MIR.
John Woods, when somo half mile north
Of Mr.. Woons she met in tho read q
wounded deer. No sooner did the deer
see her, than it made furious attack
upon her, frightening the horse she was
riding, and causing Mrs. B. and lei
little grand child, who was riding behind
her, to be thrown violently to the
ground. After they were thrown from
the horse, the deer proceeded to attack
Mrs. B. and child with renewed fury
Mrs. B. managed to get hold of alarge
stick of wood, and with this finally sue
ceded in driving the deer off. Mrs
Burshard and the child are considerably
bruised, from the rough and tumble igh'
with the enragsd animal. Later in the
day, an attempt was made to find and
kill the deer, which however, was un
successful. Its mate was found and
killed within a few hundred yards o.
where the attack was made.-Osag'

METEoRlc SHowER.-Our neighbor
the Dispatch, has been fortunate enough
to behold one Of those strang phenomena
denoIinated meteorlc showers, and gives
the following description thereof: On
Wednesday of week before last (Nov.
27th) at o'clock p. M, there was quite
a meteoric shower took place in the up.
per strata Of the atmosphere, which re.
mained visible for about half an hour,
when the sky becoming covered with a
thick haze, rendered the ineteors invisi
bio. The meteors looked like mere
specks of light, which disappeared as
they dropped within the scope Of vision.
We watched the phenomenon for sevora
minutes, intending to call the attention OF
others to the matter, expecting that the
display would become more brilliant IN q
short time, but our expectations were
disappointed by the weather becoming
cloudy. AT the time we first noticed the
meteors there was not breeze to be felt
and the sky presented q dull, milky ap.
pearance. We marked u point in the
heavens aud watched it steadily for a few
minutes, and about every second speck
of white light would drop within the
range Of our vision. Some would ap
pear to travel several feet before they
would disappear, and come only few
inches. A few could be seen abou
twenty degrees above the horizon, bu
tho thickest part Of the shower extended
from about forty five degrees TO the
zenith.

HONOR TO WHOM Honor Is DUE. 1t
is SO seldom in this day of rewards and
emolumsnts that we meet with pure acts
of benovoleucs and love, that cannot
let the present ono pass uunoticed. In
the case of - Gordon, who died with
smallpox, about four miles from Troy,
there was an act of true heroism and
unsel6shness seldom met with. Gordon
had just returned from st. Louis with
that most dreaded and loathsome disease,
the smallpox, in it's most malignant aud
terrible form. DR.. Hutt was called upon
to 60. At first he faltcred /; but on in-
quiry he ascertainsd that Gordon was an
honest and poor man. Then it was that
his noble heart, clad in heavenly armor,
"trus levs to his fellow man." took the
ascsndsnsy aud said, II will CO." He went
and day and night, with the sharp and
bright blade of science, be fought the
enemy ever that PROSTATE body until
death stepped in aad ended the combat
by claiming it as its own. Friend aud
foe both had to yield. Such deed oil
he,oism stands high above the roar Of
the cannon and the clash Of swords il
needs no marble monument to rear it,
head to the clouds. 1t has planted IL
, the heart Of the csmwuaity an evergreen
whose foliage will remain fresh snd
bright, and whose perfume shall pesme-
ats the sick chamber ahen the marbi,
monument shali cease to tell vie lie,
beneath.

MISSOURI REPUBLICAN,
"A FIRST Class News and
Family journal.

TIE MISSOURI REPUBLICAN is prepared
to enter upon another journalistic year with re-
newed gor and enterprise. We have recently
added to our establishment all the latest improve
ments in the printing business, including the
fas est presses and the most complete machinery
in the world. We have likewise secured ex ra-
ordinary facilities for the collection of the news,
III all important quarters, and for its prompt
transmission by telegraph. Our foreign and do
nestle correspondence has been increased, and
our editorial ass stance augmented. The RE-
PUBLICAN now feels able to compete with any
newspaper in the United States in the extent
and variety of its news, the freshness of its cor
rcsponIencc, the soundness and dignity of its
editorials, the reliability of its financial intelli-
gcncc, the character Of its Literary, Local and
miscellaneous features, and in short the various
departments embraced in first class news and
family Journal.
The REPUBLICAN,, as n political paper, is n
fearless and Independent advocate Liberal Dem
cratic principles. 1t is bound, however, by no
party ties to the support of unworthy men, r
by party discipline to any action it may deem un-
wise or impolitIc. Its utterances will echo the
sentiments of the popular masses as far as they
can be asccrtained. Its main platform will be the
interest Of the people of the Mississippi Valley,
and it will seek to encourage immigration, to de-
Vclop natural resources, to pro mote improvement,
to advance Agriculture, Manufactures anu Min
ing, to cultivate the economic arts, to elevate the
standard OF general intelligence and morals 1t
Will sudiously strive. as in the past, to avoid
sensational and prurient Journalism, and will
without sacrificing spice and piquancy,' aim to
make itself worthy OF admission into the purest
circles.
The WEEKLY REPUBLICAN will contain
| the cream of tho DAILY ISSUES, CONDENSED A:D
| COLLECTED EXPRESSLY FOR THE COUNTRY, and con
tanning the LATEST NEWS up to the time cf going
| to press. 1t will also be enlivened with II vari
etJ of misc llaneous matter, and by features Of
interest to he found only in this paper.
