A Centennial Episode.

\ good many Of the newspaper men who

iutJ tie current we soon approached tue desk.
Not aware tia, the Register was for the exclu-
siye entry Of the names Of Connection, people
and Dot observing printed notice to that ei-
feet, We placed our autograph upon the record.

tie next Centennial! Not wishing to falsiG
the Record, We submitted 70 the decree, aud
our name was ezpuuged BY tbeaforesaid crus-
o. custodian Of Connecticut centennial hospi-
tally. Marx this yigilant keeper Of Con-
uecticut autographs was willing to let our

Opening Their Eyes.

The people Of the North, too, are beginning
% give serious thought to The condition Of their
southern brethren. They have been 50 per-
sis;cntly told tia. the entire South was in a
state Of turmoil, and thl, nothing bu. the mil
itary power was sufficient for the enforcement
Of law aud order among the inhabitants, that
they had come into the habit Of regarding this
as a true tale. Their eyes have, however, late
ly been opened to the true facts Of the case
They now know that these representations are
nothing bu, malicious alsehoods, disseminated
for base and unAoly purposes; that where the
people Of the South are permitted to pursue
their way uum5lessel by the rapacious agents
Of the Government, peace, order aud harmony
prevail; and TIA, if the mailed hand be re-
moved from its throat this section Of their
country will breathe freely and become again
one Of the principal promoters OF the nations
wealth and prosperity They clearly perceive,
10 short, that the m2th,l by which the Go
vernmenl has undertaken TO conduct its trans
actions w::h the South, is plrnlysing the in
dustrjes Of the fairest portions Of the land, and
is establishing a species Of military dicta-
ton which will if no; speedily checked en-
danger the liberties Of the whole people.
