nigh TIrnes In Missouri.

Some months since, in Cass coun-
ty, Missouri, the members of the
County Court, by what is alleged to
be improper means, issued a large
amount of county bonds, of which
they themselves became the posses
sors, without any equivalent; and a
high state of excitement ever since,
has been the consequence. On
Thursday of last week, three of
these men, j. r. Cline, Jehil G. Ste
venson and Thos. Dutro, were pas
sengers on the Pacific Railroad. At
Guntown the train was boarded by
large, and well-armed mob, who
proceeded at once to the business in
hand-which was the killing Of the
three above named men-which was
speedily accomplished, and the train
was permitted to move on. Others
are implicated in the bond swindle,
whose lives are hourly in jeopardy,
and the only hope OF escape is in
fight.

The Latest SMindIe.

Certain sanctimoniOus charlatans would
fain persuade the world that diffusive
stimulants have no medicinal value, and
that detestable Stops, composed of gripping
acids and drastic purgatiyes, are better
tonics than the finest vegetable ingredients
combined with the purest and mellOwest
products of the still. But this sort of
thing went go down. The stomach Of our
common sense rejects it, as the stomach Of
every man with an undepraved palate re-
jects, with IoathIng and adherence, the
nauseous denominations, "free from aleo-
hol," which Humbugs are trying to thrust
down the ihroats Of Temperance Inyalids
under the pretense that the filth will do
them good? 1t is not likely that while
PLANTATION BITTERs the Standard Tonic
of America, Is anywhere accessible, such
sickening frauds can make much Roadway,
but it is as well to put the public on their
guard against them.
