Of approaching death III this country We

We should lift tho heavy hand of the Fed
oral Government from the South as speedily
as possible. Guaranteeing the fullest civil
rights to the negro, we would, at the same
time, have the communities of the South
taught that they must not depend upon the
General Government as a child depends upon
its parents. Federal interference with State
affairs should be contracted, rather than en-
iarged; and this general principle sufficiently
accounts for the opposition which the Force
bill has encountered from some Of the best
men in the Republican party. Happily, there
is no danger that the bill will become lay;
and therefore it need not be seriously dis
cusscd. -Rochester Democrat.

Zone of the young lady students

over herself loose wrapper and

fright tened the Colonel, though
he knew something was wrong
and did not disturb the sleeping

ior. Any information regarding
his whereabouts will be thank.
fully received, and will relieve
the anxiety of a mother and
father. WILLIAM A. SMITH.
Lexington, Mo-, April 2, 1875.
The whole ,neighborhood was
aroused and turned out in search
OF the missing boy. Every effort
to.fnd him, however proved una
yvailing, and his distressed parents
had to endure the agony of know
ing that their little darling was
exposed alone to all the dangers
and terrors ofthe night. It seems
the little fellow wandered about
three miles from home into the
woods belonging to, Col. w. I.
Wood. Here he was overtaken
by night, and, tired and hungry,
cried himself to sleep. 1t is en-
.ough to bring tears to the eyes to
think of the little thing there
in the darkness calling for mann
ma and papa. It.is marvel that
the child did not perish, az the
nights are too chilly for the robust
constitution of an adult to endure,
and have perished he would but
for the faithful Shepherd and
Newfoundland dogs which ac'
.companied him. The noble brutes
lay one on each side Of their help
less little master, and he slept rs
suugly as If he had been IN his
mother 8 arms.
But there is a still more remark
able thing to chronicle in connec'
stion with the matter. When the
hoy was found. be had a dead rab-
bit which the dogs must have
caught and brought to him for his
breakfast. This leaves the story
of "the Babes in the Woods" alto.
sgether in the shade. The dogs
would not permit the parties who
found the boy to come near him
until they sent for his father.
The first thing the little fellow
said was II want to see mamma"
We havn't heard whether the
mother, in the ecstacy of her Joy,
spanked her boy, but it is likely
she did.-Lerington InteJIigence,
