the proclamation Of President Lincoln.
Ex-senator R. NJ. T. Hunter, Of Virginia,
as we have repeatedly explained, is tn
most influential leader in the movement to
secure this result. That he is not alone in
his effort must be apparent to every one
who has even casual knowledge of cur
rent affairs in the South. The newspapers
of that section, while they have not at all
times Endorsed the proposition, have limited
at it as among the possibilities of the future,
and when Mr. Hunter, little more than
a year ago, went so far as to base his claims
for recognition as political leader by the
citizens of his State upon letter or ad-
dress arguing the unconstitutionality Of the
Emancipation Proclamation, the Conservs-
tive newspapers did not hesitate to declare
their belief that he had struck the keynote
of the chorus in the political anthem which
would lead the Southern people back to
power and wealth. In short there was a
responsive throb throughout the entire
South to the appeal made by him in behalf
of the cupidity of his Observation-Disclosures,
and the direct result was extended discus
sion, which has ended in the publication of
advertisements something like the follow
ing, which we copy from Georgia ex-

The Trial of the Colfax Prisoners.

This important case is still on trial
in the United States Circuit Court,
New Orleans, Judge Woods on the
bench. The prosecution closed their
testimony on Wednesday evening
last, after a searching examination of
thirty-six acilling witnesses, all ne
groes, save Register, his wife and
Willie Colhoun. We have carefully
read the testimony adduced, as pub
|]ished in the New Orleans Republi-
can, and are perfectly sanguine that
the Government have failed in max
ing out case against the prisoners,
and That their testimony, though OF
t h e well drilled kind, b a S fallen
harmless and pe'jnred at the feet OF
the Jury empane]led to try the case.
II this be true after reading alone the
testimony of the Government, nearly
all of whom are ignorant and debased
negroes of the Radical school, what
must be our conclusions on reading
the two first days testimony OF the
defence, which thus far conclusiveiy
disproves and nulhhes the position OF
the Government and stamps their
witnesses a. perjured wretches? p
These witnesses for the defence thus
far are all white and of known and
established characters, which makes
t h testimony elected from them
crushing to the prosecution. In fact
positive aliJi has been made out in
favor of SIX of the rrisoners-Thos
J. Hickman, A. G.. Lewis, Pei n, Glib.
bons and the two. Lemoines. The
case, we think, will close this week
and we are almost certain that the
Jury will bring in verdict Of ''NoI
Guilty"

Blackwood's Magazine for Febru-
airy, just republished by the Leonard
Scott Publishing Co., contains a
greater proportion of story and mar
rative than usual, an order of litera-
ture in which the Magazine has
armed we'll. deserved distinction.
The story of valentine and his
Brother is continued; so also is the
series Of papers, "lnte. national Vani.
ties," under which heading we are
presented with a survey of those
silded toys, Titles, from the time of
Menes to our day. "There is not q
King in Christianity, rot a Pacha in
Africa or Asia, not naked Chief of
Negroes, who does rot call himself
by an accumulated valiety of orna-
mental denominations" We shall
be glad to be better acquainted with
The Two spesansky." The whole,
article is pleasant reading, and the
letters from Siberia give an inter
esting picture of manners little known
to Europeans. In "Scepticlsm and
Modern Poetry" the writer endeav-
ors to show the effects Of scepticism
on poetical genius, instancing the
writings of Shelley, Goethe, and
Arthur Hugh Clough.
The other articles are "The Book
of Carlaverock;" "Tbe Philosophers

an interesting sketch of how the
young sovereign is being educated;

The Great Antagonist Of Disease.

What is the natural antagonist OF
disease /? 1t is the vital principle.
From the moment that disease is de-
veloped in the system, this champion
fights the intruder until it either con-
quers or is conquered. Which side
should medicinal science espouse in.
this life and death strngsleq Shon'd
lit depress and cripple the physical en-
ersies Of the patient, thereby helping
the disorder, or should it reinforce the
vitality of the patient and thereby as
sist in quelling the ailment7 VI
course the proper answer to this q"es-
ton must be. obvious. to. every one
above the grade of an idiot or luna =.
tic, and hence it follows that the weak
and broken down invalid who chooses
to dose himself with depicting slops,
instead of toning, invigorating and. vi
taIizing his enervated frame with Hos,
letters Stomach Bitters, must he either
feeble minded or deranged. Surely
nothing short of imbccility or insanity
could induce person laboring under
bodily weakness and nervous prostra
ton, to take day after day powerful
doses of some drastic pnrgative in the
hope of gaining strength thereby. Al
though cllarlatans may advertise prep
arations of this character as TONES,
people in the full possession of their
reason can not, one wonld think. DC
cept them as such. It they do the
penalty of their credulity NAV be the
shortening of their lives. The rhen-
matic, the dyspeptic, the bilious, the
debilitated and nervous, and all who
are subject to intermittents, or other
diseases brought on by the Indictment
weather hich prevails at this season,
will do we'll to strengthen their nerves,
tone their stomachs and regulate tl'eil
bowels with the Bitters. The two-fod
ure,aton of the restorative as an in
vignrant and an aperient, in addition
to it's direct and specific effect upon the
ldisorderel liver, renders it most eff
Gent remedy for complaints of :he di
gestive, secretive and excretive organs,
at present in use. This fact is conce
ded by eminent members of the facul-
ty whose testimony to that effect is

Good citizens of Louisiana, is in search
of home in Texas, and visits Dallas
to take look at the promised land. A
ripe scholar, fine lawyer, eloquent adj

that after visiting Texas he may yet

Shreveport.
At the last general election in this
State Judge Seay was resident Of
Rapides Parish, and was then elected

much of a gentleman to suit the ideas
of Louisiana radicals, and hence was
:'counted out" That portion of the
State offering no attractions in its
