Offensive Ad ertising.

The Massachnsett Legislature has passed
law against the defacement of natural
scenery. This, we take it, applies to the
painting of advertisements upon rocks, nail
ing them to boards upon trees and the gen.
eIal obtrussor of the notices of quack medi-
cine vendors along the lines of our railroads.
1t IS quite time such law was enacted in
al our New England States. Some of the
very finest bits OF landscape are rendered
worthless, comparatively. to the observer by
the daubs of paint thrust upon sight in or on
the most salient point.

and attractive.
But on this rock, over which the green

Ladiug a Mississippi Steamboat.

The following is an extract from a Denver
letter Of the Danbury Ne,os man to his pa
per:
The river is much broader at this point
than ever expected to see 1t, but we cannot
always have things our own way in this
world. The channel is about three feet deep
opposite this place; don't know the exact
width of the river, bat there is no doubt but
that the water is as thick as 1t is broad The
traveller should turn il over with his foot AID
so look at 10th sides of it. All was hustle on
deck when / got there. The boat was taking
on its freight, and about thirty lively negroes,
and one very excited and awfuly profane
white man were doing the business. That
white man was study. He was the mate
of the vessel. and what he didn't know about
rhetoric could be held on the point of a knife
| blade by nervous man. The thirty negroes
Lad all they could well attend to to keep ND
with his new Oaths and roll On the casks.
Without any cessation they bobbed from the
boat to the shore, and from the shore back to
tie boat, and all the while that Mississippi
eiocutionist danced around and swore. When
got on the boat sat down on my baggage
and watched that man.

l knew something at wickedness, but was
mistaken. The negrrss were uniformly
