The NEGRO EM1GRAT1oN.-The
emigration of the Southern negroes to
Kansas can easily be accounted for.
Most of the Southern States are in a
situation approaching pauperism.. Ag.
riculture yields little, and taxation is
intolerable. The carpet,baggers hage
stolen the people poor and, as the
negroes are poorest among them, they
necessarily suffer the worst of all. In
the hope of improving their condition,
they fly from the plundered and i'm
poverished soil of their birth.
Will the change be beneficial? Will
the emigrants be better of in Kansas
than in their old homes? We think
not. Persons of extraordinary energy
and ability may gain by the change,
but the masses will suffer from it.
They will find no better opportunities
of employment in Kansas than in the
States they leave. Whatever their
expectations, and whatever pretences
are held out to them, the people
among whom they go will be less
friendly toward them than those from
whom they have departed; while
the more severe climate and the more
rigorous necessity for industry and
thrift will add seriously to their diff
culties. Their emigration is a mis-
fortune and not a blessing to the coun-
try and to themselves.-W. Y. Sun.

A TRUTHFUL TRIO.
Mark Twain, Nasoy and Eli Perkins.

OMAHA, Mass, July Al, 1882.
w hiIe stroliing around Oshkosh
yesterday l was surprised 10 meet
two very distinguished and truth
ful individuals. Surprised, | say,
because l supposed these gentle
men were thousands of miles
away. These men were Mark
Twain, sometimes called the Great
Trutbteller Of the Sierras, and
and P. Y. Nasby, generally
known as the Great ,lnterna-
tional Truthteller at Large from
the State of Ohio. Now, thought
Mark Twain was doing missionary
work in New Jersey, and [ had
been informed that Mr.. Nasty had
gone to labor in the temperance
field in Italy with Mr.. Murphy.
Notwithstanding my surprise at
seeing them, l was glad to have 2
chance to sit at their feet and
hear the truth defended.
After we had talked a spell Mr..
Twain laid down his cigar and
told Us about a fast horse he once
owned in Virginia City. Said
he:
"Gentlemen, this horse Of mine
was tough bitted, and he vent so
fast that l had to guide him by
electricity-had to have wire lines
and keep battery in the wagon
all the time in order to stop him."
"Why didn't you stop him by
hollering whoa ?" l asked.
"Stop him BY hollering whoa"
exclaimed Mr.. Twain. "Why, l
could not boiler loud enough to
make that horse hear me. Lie
travelled so fast that no sound ever
reached him from behind. LIE
went faster than the sound, sir.
Holicr whoa and he'd be in the
next town before the sound of
your voice could reach the dash
board. Travel tast?' l should
say he could. Why, once started
from Virginia City for Meadow
Creek right in front Of one OF the
most dreadful transforms we ever
bad on the Pacific Coast. Wind
and rain ? Why, the wind blew
80 miles an hour, and the rain fell
in sheets. I drove right before
that storm for three hours-just
on the edge of that hurricane and
rain for 10 miles"
"Didntyou get drenched 2"
"Drenched? No, sir q! What
did l keep that fast horse for?
Why, | tell you, [ drove right in

gsIsetsb Story. S
SPOILIIG 1 BONDSIbLL.

When Tom Black was in his
fourteenth year. he was at school
in a small village in the south of
England, and was IS happy boy
as any fellow ought to expect to
be; and yet on his birthday, when
he was really fourteen, he ran
away to sea.
No one could possibly imagine
why he did this, and, indeed, Tom
himself could give no good reason
for his conduct.
He had a halfholiday on his
birthday, and he went down to
the seaport town of NJ, short
trip from tie school, to spend a
few hours and to see the ships.
There he fell in with a recruiting
officer, who wanted some boys for
maN.of war in the harbor, and
Tom was 80 much pleased with
the stories be told Of life at sea,
that he went into a s;ationer's
store, bought some paper and
wrote two notes one to his family
ct home and the other TO the mas
ter of the school, informing them
thac he had a most admirable op-
portunisy of going to sea and
learning to be a naval officer.
Such a chance might not occur
again, and as be had made up his
mind to enter the navy, any way,
1t would not be wise to let the op-
portunity pass. He would lose
nothing by leaving school now,
for navigation, mathematics, and
everything that was necessary for
a naval officer to know, were
taught on the ship. Then be
mailed the letters and went on
board.
When Toms father and the
master received these notes, it is
probable that they would have
taken measures to get Tom of
that ship in very short order, had
it not been for the fact that the
vessel sailed early the next morn
ing after Tom made his appear
ance on her deck, aud she was far
out at sea before Mr.. Black and
DR.. Powers had read their letters.
So there was nothing to be done
at home but to hope that things
would eventually turn out for the
best, and indeed this was what
Tom himself had to do. For he
soon found that his position, on
the vessel was very different from
what he had supposed it would be.
Instead Of being taught how to
sail the ship, be was taught how
to coil rope and to help wash
the deck. he was Il ships boy
not y midshipm.an.
When poor Tom found ont this
lamentabie fact, lie made up his
mind that be would run away the
first time the vessel touched a
port, but wnen she did reach a
port he re-made up bis mind, and
concluded to stay on board.
By a little observation be found
that it would be- q difficult and
dangerous thing for him to try TO
run away, and besides he bad no
money to take him bone. 1t
would be better, he thought, to
stay on board the ship, where he
bad made some friends, and where
he Was getting good deal better

Members Of our Base Ball Club report
that the Bristol Club had four profession
ais secured to oppose them, namely: Craw-
ford and Daniel of the Athletic Of San
Francisco. Lovejoy of White Creek. and
one from Salt Lake. After the trick had
been exposed, and the stakes secured, our
boys challenged the Bristols to play for
$500, allowing them the four professionals
but even this they declined. They then
challenged the Piochers to play a friendly
game and allowed the four imported men
to play with them. Even at these odds the
Eureka Club came out victorious, making
eight runs in four innings to seven runs in
five innings for the Piochers.
