What the Radicals call "ku Kluxing"
seems to be taking u now direction 10
North Curolina. The Raleigh Sentinel
relates several instances Of the brutal
treatment Of colored men who support
Greeley, by other colored men, the
graduates Of tho Radical League of the
State, who ''rah for Grant" In the
case OF the prosecuted negroes, efforts
were made by the Grant blacks to take
their lives Tor no reason except that they
have pronounced themselves for Gree
ley. Outrageous as this conduct ia, the
blnme should not so much rest upon the
negroes. ignorant and unthinking, as
upon their white carpet-bag leaders,
who, in the councils Of their Loyal
League, instruct them to commit these
e1oesses, and promise them the counte-
nanco of the Administration, and of its
unworthy officials in tho State, to stand
between them and punishment.

NEVER AGAIN.

Some time ago there lived gentleman
of indolent habits. in Sussex, who made y
business in the Winter season of visiting
his friends extensively. After wearing out
his welcome in bis own immediate vicinity
he visited an old Quaker friend, some miles
distant, who had been school fellow Of
his. On his arrival he was cordially receiv-
ed by the Quaker, who thought his visitor
had taken much pains to come SO far to see
him. He treated his friend with great at
tention and politeness for several days, and,
as he did not see any signs of bis leaving,
he become uneasy, bas be bone it with pa
tience till the morning Of the eighth day,
when he said to him:
"My friend, am afraid thee will never
visit me again.
"Oh, yes, I SHALL" said tile visitor ); IL
have enjoyed my visit, very much !; "I
shall certainly come again"
"Nay," said the Quaker, 1 think thee
will not visit me again.
"What makes you think I will not come
again ?" asked the visitor.
"If thee does never lcave," said the
Quaker, chow can thee come again ?"
His visitor left.

COGHLAN's DEFEAT.

The people have spoken; their decree

Sacramento Union asserted it to be-, that
Coghlan was the Railroad candidate, why
is it, We ask, that Luttrell obtained his
heaviest majorities in the Counties where
the Railroad Companies employ1 the most
men and had the most capital invested >
Why is it, that in Yolo County, where

ton, that Luttrell received his overwhsin-
ing majority? Why is it, if Coghlaa was

hirelings" voted for LuttfeH, to man.
These are stubborn facts, and prove, either
that the Union was mistaken in its broad
assertions, or else that Stanford concluded
that it would cost less money to buy Lut-
trell, than to elect Coghlan. If the Rail.
road Company had any influence then, in
this District, it is qnite clear that it was
given to Luttrell and not for Coghlan.-

THE GOLDEN SIDE.
BY CHARLES MAcKEY.

There is many rest in the road of life,
II we wouldsonly stop to take it;
And many tone from the better land,
II the querolous heart would make it.
To the soul that is ever full of hope.
And whose beautiful trust ne'er faileth,
The grass is green and the flowers are bright,
Though the Winters storm prevalent.
Better to hope, though the clouds hang low,
And to keep the eyes still lifted
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through,
When the ominous clouds are rifted
There was never a night without day,
Or an ev'ning without morning;
And the darkest hour as the proverb goes,
Is the hour before the dawning.
There is many gem in the path of life.a
Which we pass in our idle pleasure,
That is richer far than the jeweled crown,
Or the miser's boarded treasure;
1t may be the love of little child,
Or mothers prayer to Heaven,
Or only beggar's grateful thanks
For cup ofwate given.
Better to weave in The web Of life
A bright and golden filling.
And to do Gods will with cheerful heart
Ana hands that are ready and willing;
Than to snap the delicate, minute thread
Of our curious lives asunder,
And then blame Heaven for the tangled ends
Aud sit and grieve and wonder

HE WANTED TO ARRIVE.

A seedy looking individual walked into
the Crawford House few evenings ago,
and, stepping up to the counter, seized a
pen and registered his name at the foot of
the days arrivals. 1t was noble name
George Washington Bo.ts-written in a
firm, bold hand, and with big flourish
underneath. 1t was plain that the seedy
man was accustomed to making a flourish
in the world if it were only with pen.
"Have room ?" inquired Capt Oakes,
incidentally measuring the man with his
eagle eye to see if he wouldn't fiji one of
the sky boudoirs.
"No," said seedy, shortly, picking his
teeth with splinter toothpick he had Sc
lected from the well-assorted supply always
found on the counter.
"Supper then, suppose ?" added the
Captain, preparing TO add S to the end OF
George Washington Boots name
"No sir, no SUPPER" said Mr.. Boots,
with severity, II simply want to arrive

Here he was compelled to hide his emo

pocket-handkerchief. Capt. Oakes, always
ready to do a good action, generously al.
lowed the unfortunate individual to arrive

The GYpsies in parIInment.

A great congress of that curious people

four hundred representatives of this no

Gypsy in appearance. Although romance
and the drama have made these people
familiar to US, the known facts connected
with their history do not carry US back
farther than period Of flour centuries ago
Their first appearance Is noted as having

from Christianity to paganlsm. They
were kindly treated by TIE credulous wi.

everything portable upon which they
could lay their hands, and their adventure
ended with the hanging Of the majority
OF their number by The incensed people,
and the flight OF the rest. We next hear
