Murder Of a Colored Man in Platte
County.

On the Berryville road, three miles
from Parkville. Platte county, a col.
ored man by the name of Henry
Faleston, formerly a slave owned by
Major Hinkle. for some unknown rea-
son, was killed near his residence on
last Sunday morning. About half
past five O'Clock in the morning he
heard a noise near his house, and
thinking that some cattle had broken
into his corn-field, he got up and went
out in his shirt-sleeves to drive them
away. Feeling cold, he went back to
get his o%vercoat. In the meantime
his wife went TO the door and request
ed him not to go out for she saw a
light not 200 feet from the door and
she did not think it safe to venture
out. Notwithstanding her cntreaties
he started out, and when about five
PAGES from the door two mel rushed
out from behind the house and de.
manded him to halt. He turned back
toward the house, but before he could
gain entrance six shots were fired at
him, one ofthem entered his shoulder
and proving fatal.
Faleston ran a short distan: GO in the
cornfield and fell, when three men
rushed by him. His wife then came
out, and with the aid of her oldest
boy, they carried him to the house.
Medical aid was at once sent for, and
about half-past s o'clock DR.. May, of
Berryville, arrived. After examining
his wound DR.. May pronounced it
fatal.
Faleston said that he knew no rea-
son why any one should shoot him.
and that he hadn't an enemy living
that he knew of. He fingered until
about III o'clock, when he died from
the effects of the wound in his shout

A WIFE of Detroit, seeing q para
graph in the papers to the effect that
matrimonial couples in Illinois get
divorced just in order to have the
pleasure OF fresh counting and a new
honeymoon" induced her husband,
after some persuasion, to consent to
a divorce 'just for the fun of the
thing" When the divorce was OBJ
tanned, the ex-husband was astonished
to find that the "courting" and "hon-
eymooning' were to be done with
another fellow. lie doesn't think
divorces for fun very funny after all.
His wife sees where the laugh comes
in, but he never did have an appreci-
alton of humor.

MCSSrS. COlYar and Baxter.

Why was it, Mr.. COlyar, that you, while
pOrtTaying, i'll eloquent terms, at the court
house OH Tuesday night last, the activity,
energy, progress and wealth of the North
eastern portion of our country, which you
have recently visited; and declaring, pas
SiOnately, that we, i'll this region, must
wake up and bestir ourselves, get out of
the old ruts, and introduce manufactures
and push ahead, or continue to stand, as
now, on the verge of financial ruin, and
you, Mr.. Baxter, followed in the same
strain, and neither of you made any men
ton of education, the one great source of
all that you lauded, and at the same time,
the great remedy for three-fourths of the
evils that hamper and fetter this State?
Surely, gentleman, you know, that not
only individual men rank by their intel
lectual culture and growth, but communi
ties and nations also that not geographic
cal position, nor population, nor soil, nor
rich mines of minerals, nor all combined
will make people rich and prosperous
and great. Give an ignorant people all
these advantages and they will be poor,
and equality and miserable still ; while q
highly educated community, in a sterile
country, amid bleak rocks and barren
mountains, where the seasons are rigorous,
and the element are unkind, where
everything produced must be wrung
from the soil by severe appliCAiOn and
stern endeavOT, will be rich, thriving,
prosperous and powerful.
1t is mind, educated, trained mind that
makes wealthy, prosperous State. w hat
determines the value of man; his mind
or his body? How much would you val
lie q man who was utterly without educa-
ton or knowledge, if you could conceive
of such a one? How much for any de-
partment of labor would you value stout,
robust man, with the mental capacity of
boy of six years of age? Who does not
know that the mere mechanical workman
stands not the slightest chance in compe-
titiOn with the workman of trained, edu-
Gated mind? Who does not know that
ignorance is of little account anywhere,
while knowledge, with Gods blessing,
can do all things. Yes, ignorance is
stationary Intelligence is progressive
Ignorance has no character, no influence.
Intelligence is aspiring, positive, and al
ways takes the leaders, part. An educat-
ed man improves everything at which he
works. An ignorant man plOds on me-
chanically, in the beaten track. Messrs.
Colyar and Baxter, you know these things.
You know that education is money;
money in farming, in manufacturing at
the anvil, the forge, the spindle, the loom,
everywhere. You know that the very in
dustry, enterprise and observation-disclosures
| Wnlch you so >elOquently lauded, and
which you are eager to see fill this region,
are born, and can be born only of educa-
ton. Your speeches, powerful as they were,
would not be worth the ink used in printing
} them, before an Ohio audience. Intelli-

Bonner, Of the Ledger.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Com
mcrciaJ describes Robert Bonner i'll this
way:
The man is not handsome, Il bit; GER
tainly not on sight. BrOad-shOuldered,
red-faced, sandy whiskers, hazel eyes, a
great head, a gibbs tongue, nervous
movement, and a jerky, irregular step,
though he has appointed this hour to see
you, and, i'll genuine Irish hospitality, is
trying to make you comfortable No, no.
He is so quick and hurried, and strong of
spirit, that you cannot resist the feeling
that YOU are slow coach in the way of an
engine with full head of steam, and you
feel like stealing your hat, slipping out
when his back is turned, and heeling it
for YOUR room, and leave the strong man
to drive on at Dexter speed.
