When we used TO live on a farm,
VI could tell from his motions when
a mischievous old OK was making up
bis mind TO jump into the fed. Judg-
ing from the course Of the Meridian
Gazette, we think that that paper is
about TO leap the fence into the Rad
ical pasture, where the succulent tooth
some grass grows fresh and green. If
he KNOCKS off the top rails and indeth
pasturage, there is no telling how
many small cattle will follow.

SCHURz ALMIGHTY.-One of our German sub
scribers has climbed away up on the highest pin
nacle of his ear, because of the rrevereut remarks
which We made about Carl Schurz, last week.
The offense, we suppose, arises from the fact
that Schurz is a German. 1t is a very weak
point with very many persons of that nation,
that when a German is alluded to in uncompli-
mentary terms, they take it as an insult to the
entire nation. You may denounce an English
man, Frenchman, an Irishman, or an Ameri-
can, and it is all right; but German you must
not. Now, our theory is, that in this country,
every man must stand upon his own idvidual
merits, whether he be a German, an Englishnan,
Frenchman, an Irishman, OF an American; and
if any man wants to put himself up as an en-
bodiment of an entire nation, he had better re-
main in that nation.
Our al,usion to Carl Schurz, was to Schurz
individually, and not to every man in America
of German descent. We said just what we
meant, and our only apology is its truth. We
said he was treacherous and impracticable. Is
it not true, with all his talenti He was first
Democrat. He left that party, and Joined the
on the slavery issue. After the
war, he came to Missouri, where the Republicans
confded in him, but he basely betrayed them,
and in conceit, with Gratz Brown, turned the
State over to the Rebel Democracy. Now he
has turned against that party, aud is seeking to
build mp another in which be shall be leader.
And whatever he does, he presumes upon his
supreme control of the German element. We
never believed thai he owned that element, ex-
,ept that portion of it like irate subscriber.
We have said he was impracticsble. What
great measure has he ever advanced and carried
through the Senatei Nothing. His forte is to
mari and oppose. His great efforts in the Senate
ire all directed to opposing and tearing down
measures brought forward by other
men. We have not word to take back of what
We said last week
