A Remarkable Result OF Eloouepce

Shortly after the close of the wa,
Henry Ward Beecher was engaged t.
speak in Faneuil Hall, before meeting
called to discuss the subject of giving
suffrage to the freedmen. In the early
part OF the meeting Mr.. Beecher was
earnestly engaged elsewhere. During
the time distinguished citizen o.: Bos
ton had read paper favoring qualified
suffrage based on intelligence. 1t was
a paper OF very marked ability, and
commanded profound attention, and
carried The convictions of the audience te
a remarkable degree. Mr.. Beecher ar
rived at the hall just as the time came
for him to speak. He knew nothing
of what had been said, nor of the men
tai condition of his audience. He a,
once announced himself in favor of uni
versal suffrage. There was distipc,
murmur of dissent all over the room
aud cries of "No, MOI" The dissent
was so pronounced that most men would
have quailed. Mr.. Beecher hesitated 8
moment, looked over the sea of faces
before him, aud instantly took in the
situation. Strengthening himself up,
throwing back his shoulders, and brac
ing himself as for battle, he poured out
such a stream of fervid eloquence in
defence OF his position, that all opposi
ton was overborne and slenced, and
in few minutes the whole vast audi
ence were applauding him most Wig
orously
OF the other method of overcoming
unexpected resistance, perhaps Wendell
Philips furnishes the best example. He
was once addressing an audience in one
of his purpose was to criticisc Ger
tain public man, and it is well known
that with him criticising is not very far
removed from denouncing. 1t so hap.
pened that tho man he selected for pun.
ishment that evening was n great favor.
lite with the audience. At his very first
severe sentence, therefore, there was
such Il decided expression of dissent
that Wendell Philips gracefully turned
aside, and began on IL strain of thought
as far as possible removed from that
which had given offence. Ho began to
talk most charmingIy, mingling elo-
quenco and history, poetry and wit,
in manner that perfectly entranccd
bis auditors. He soon had them in the
hest possible humor, and on the best
possible terms with himself and with
each other. Then by series of logi-
cal steps, committing them to each point
as he progressed, he led them right
back to the very criticism from which
they had driven him but few minutes
before. He then poured out his pol
ished invectives to his hearts content,
and not murmnr was expressed. He
saw how the wind was blowing, and
that it would be impossible TO proceed
against it. SO he tackled about, and
made that very wind help to bear him
on to his own predetermined destina-
ton. This was a real triumph of elo-
quence, and the skill that gained 1T was
akin to that which wins battles.

Horse Thieves at Fort Laramie.
Fort LARAMIE, May22

To The Editor Cheyenne Leader:
1t seems this point is made the head
quarters for the operation of horse
thieves. Mr.. Hauphoff, residing at
this point, had two mares and five
saddles stolen from his stable adjoin-
ing his eating saloon. and he could find
no clue to the thieves.
Last Sunday week, a party en- route
to the Hills, while encamped in the
vicinity of McGinness' ranch, had their
stock run off. The owners employed
three Mexicans to assist in trailing up
the lost stock, and on going some eight
miles from said ranch, were confronted
by n party of men, who dismounted
them, relieved them of their shooting
irons and what money they had in
their possession, and then gave them
twenty minutes to get away, which
time, as given to me by the owners of
the stock, was used to good advantage.
The news was brought into the post,
and Lieut.. Thompson, with all of the
available men of Company ID, Third
cavalry, accompanied by Messrs. Haup-
hoff and Breckenridge (c~itizens), start
ed in pursuit. They succeeded in
bringing in five of the band, with the
two mares and saddles stolen from Mr..
Hauphoff, and on one Of the party a
copy of their constitution was found.
They were known solely by numbers,
ranging from l to 10, and the numbers
of those arrested are as follows: 2, 3,
3, s and 10, leaving at large as yet five
of the band.
From information, as given by
Sergeant Sanders and other men of
sd" company, it seems that the pris-
oners were inclined to be reticent, and
no manner of pumping could get them
to give any idea of their organization,
although they knew that their chance
to go to the home of their fathers stood
good. I.|.f SlfiJE
This raid had been long brewing, and
n e or two more such successful raids as
Lieut.. Thompson succeeded in making,
would strike terror into the hearts of
the horse thieves in this section of
country. Dispatch and nerve sail that
is required in cases of this kind, and
Lieut.. Thompson and his party had the
necessary amount of this article.
Mr.. Breckenridge as well as Mr..
Hauphoff have got some nerve, and it
will be well in future for those who are
on the conflscate to fly high of this
roost. "FRoNTIER."

We would again urge u friends in
the mining settlements west Of Dead
wood, to organize Crook county at
once, and thus prepare for their repres-
entation in our next legislative assem-
bly,, which will meet in November
next. From the law we quoted a few
weeks since, you will observe that ac-
ton should be taken at once, if you
desire to take part in legislation next
winter. Do not be bulldozed by the
noisy political wire-pullers in your
vicinity, who try to make you believe
that they can give a separate terrific
rial organization in the Hills. They
can do nothing of the kind. Congress
does not meet until October 18th; and
it will take your delegates six months
to find out that they can accomplish
nothing. Meanwhile the Wyoming
legislature will have been in session,
and you will have failed to accomplish
anything for your section of the terri
tory, unless you go to work at once and
organize the county of Crook, under
the law enacted by our last legislature
for your especial benefit.

A MYSTERY NO LONGER.
The Body of p. J.. Hughes Identified
as that of the Nephew Of the Late
Archbishop Hughes, of New York
The Body to be Sent East
To-Day.

Yesterday morning, when the local
agent of THE LEADER, Mr.. George
W. Halves, took occasion to peruse the
article in u columns, relating to the
untimely taking off of p. J. Hughes,
whose body, it will be ~recollected, was
discovered near Durbin's crossing, he
was Immediately struck with the con
viction that he was well acquainted
with the deceased, the more so as the
article in question inferred, from the
contents of a letter which was found
upon his person, that the dead man
was a resident of, or had been quite re-
Gently in, Lafargeville, a place well
known to Mr.. Halves, and which he
visited only last fall. So thoroughly
did he become convinced that he was
right in his coniectures, that he sent
the following dispatch to the postmas-
ter at Lafargeville, N. Y:
The body of p. j. Hughes was found
on the Prairie near here. Find out
what his parents want done with the
body. | will send particulars.
GEO. w. HALVES.
Before noon an answer was received
by him from the mother of the deceas-
ed, as follows:
LAFARGEvILLE, N. Y, May "a.
Put the body in II case and send it by
express. L will pay all charges.
NJ. j. HUGHES.
Mr.. Halves Immediately visited the
coroner, who had already caused the
burial of the unfortunate mans remains,
and, upon application to the proper au-
thorities, the disinterring of the body
was accomplished, when it was re-en-
closed in a neat metallic coffin and case.
To-day it will go east per express.
1t is very commendable in Mr..
Halves to have acted as he did in this
matter, and too much praise cannot
be awarded him for doing as he has.
The remains of this Inflated gentleman
will now repose in the cemetery of his
native town, and his friends will have
the satisfaction, at least, of knowing
that he is not among the number of
those who sleep their last sleep in I'M
known graves, dug on the hills and
plains of Wyoming.

Is Your Life Worth 10 centsa

Sickness prevails everywhere, and
every body complains of some disease
during their life. When sick, the OBJ
ject is to get well; now to say plainly
that nc person in this world that is suf-
fering with dyspepsia, liver complaint
and its effects, such as indigestion, cos
tiveness, sick headache, sour stomach,
heartburn, palpitation of the heart, de-
pressed spirits, billiousness, etc., can
take Green's August Flower with
out getting relief and cure.
If you doubt this, go to your druggists,
Addoms & Glover, and get a sample
bottle for 10 cents and try it, or a regu-
lar size for 70 cents. m1-tf
