WE have received from Augustus Robinson
'sThe Goldy Books set of three books for
children written by young lady of this city
who but slightly DISCUSSES her identity from
her friends by her nom de plume of "Mary
Densel." We know that the books must be
bright, lively and entertaining as nothing else
could come from that source. We make this
brief notice Immediately on the receipt of the
volumes, before having time to read them
but we promise ourself the pleasure of full
perusal and more extended notice soon.
The books are neatly bound and tastefully il
Illustrated. They will be most desirable holt
day gift for the juveniles who will be delight
ed with them.

three pounds of nitro lycerine made an

roof of the eastern heading which entered
the mountain at grade. The work on the
central shaft has been greatly impeded by
the water which required the use of ponder
Gus pumps. This opening does away with
the water so that work may be begun on the
west heading of the central shaft. 1t is ex-
pected that an opening through the Hoosac
Mountain from east to west will be effected
by Oct. 18th, 1873.

The Douglas county (Ill-) Dem
ocrat, An ardent supporter OF Gree
ley and Brown says:
''On Tuesday last car load of
shades passed through our city on
their way to Tuscola, to unite in
celebrating the anniversary Of the
Emancipation Proclamation.
while the train stopped here,
they INDUCED in vociferous cheers
for Grant What a burlesque
upon the right of suffrage, when
the franchise is committed to the
keeping Of such specimens of ami
NAL kingdom; not one Of whom in
fifty thousand has any more com
prebension of the form of Govern
ment under which he lives than
the mule he drives"
This is the manner in which
Democrats ''clasp hands across thu
bloody chasm;" this is the way in
which thay accept the Fifteen b
Amendment comforting suffrage
upon colored men, comparing then
to "mules," and seeking by sneert
and taunts to force them down t,
the situation they occupied befor
the Republican party raised then
to the dignity and rights Of cit
zenship.
