I'M. Y. SUM-

Mr. Cameron dreamed, when he was q boy.
that he would be massacred by Indians at
the age OF forty-seven. The same vision was
repeated ten years later, and with such vivid
ness that every detail was left impressed
upon his memory. He WAS at a ranch near
Bru(e City, Dakota, a short time ago, when
his forty-seventh birthday arrived. Ihe place
was alive with friendly Indians; but h. reGol-
lected his dream, and their presence made
him excessively nervous. He went to bed in
trcpidaton, aud to his horror, as he afterward
OF his dream. He full asleep, and promptly
dreamed that the Indians were scalpng him.
He bounded from the bel. leaped from win
dow and fled, temporarily insane In the
morning ha was missed. and q large party at
white men and Indians went Ia search ot him
1t was three days before they found him, for
he hid whenever he caught sight of an H.
dian, and only slowly recovered his senses
liz was naked, and nearly dead with hunger

II Is strange, remarkably strange, that two
{ the leading candidates for Governor shonl't
have thought it necessary to issue "cartls" to
the p bile lisclaiming any crookedness. vain

Oh! yes, very strange, that a man
of high honor and delicacy Of feeling
should take occasion TO challenge
the foul ISLANDERS that have been put
in circulation from sources that have
heretofore been regarded as rcspecta-
ble-very strange that a man of gen.
tlcmanly instincts should pursue an
open and above board policy for
vindicatine himself morally among
a large class of Kentuckians who
have only known him from newspa-
per reports. Very strange that a
man should desire TO refute such ca
luminous charges when such coun-
ties as Lyon, Caldwell aud others
have recognized and countenanced
the very thing itself as a fit recon-
mendation for the high Office Of Gov
ernor. All these things seem very
strange. But DIR. Blackburn has
scen proper to act independent of
such pnzzling conundrums, and the
people are every day approving his
manliness. AS yet his enemies have
not spoken and we still await the f.
ling of their demurrer, good Judge,
Let ii be done, by all means, as there
is magnificent minority in the State
who would glory in his defeat, which
can only be brought about thusly.

Chambers speech in The Senate at
8 o'clock in the morning, after an all
nights session denouncing JEFF
Davis rs q traitor, is a most remark
able little departure at this late day.
Mr.. Chandler says: 81. in company
with Jefferson Davis. stood up and
swore before Almighty God that
would support tiru constitution Of
the Upiled States, and lie took the
oath with me 10 be faithful to the
Government. During four years
sal in this body with Jefferson Davis
and saw preparation going on, from
day 10 day, for the overthrow of thu
Government"
Then Misses Cl:aruler VOWS done
nifty wrongisll for uot having said
something about il at tho time, when
YOU knew that the government you
had sworn before Almighty God to
support was from day to day being
prepared for an overthrow. All Mr.
Charuler, we fear thou hast either
misrepreseuted thine knowledge, oil
else thou vert too mentally and
morally timid to sustain thine sacred
oath TO the Government. Please
write us a letter and explain for the
satisfaction of forty millions of ad'
lniring freemen, (our subscribers,
who want you to be tn cir President
should they be cast into the lake o
Fire and Birthstone" by any slip be
tween the cup and the lip.
