THE FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE OF THE

from letter written TO the German Refom
Messenger, at Chambersburgh, Penn:
BEYEFACTREss.
Just open the door for her, and Mrs.
Winslow will prove the American Florence
Nightingale Of the Nursery. Of this we
are so sure, that we will teach our "Susye
to say, "a blessing on Mrs. Winslow" for
helping her to survive and escape the grin
Ing, colicking, and teething sege. Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing Syrup relieves the
child from pain, and cures dysentery and
diarrhea. 1t softens the gums, reduces
Inflammation, cures wind collie, and carrys
the infant safely through the teething
period. 1t performs precisely what shes
processes to perform, every part of it--not
ing less. We have never seen Mrs.
Winslow-know her only through the
preparation of her "Soothlng Syrup for
Children Teething" If we had the power
we would make her, as she is, physical
savior to the infant race. Sold by all
druggists. % cents bottle. (2)

Exit the exodus, the Exodus Commit
tee, the exodus investigation, and Dan
Voorhees,. The farce is over, the cur
tain is rung down, and the people of
this country, who were the audience,
have had to pay S40,0 900 for the silly
show. Mr.. Dan Voorhees, mountain
las labcred for weeks, and has brought
forth mouse, and q very little one at
that
Mr.. Voorhees, moved for this investi-
CATION, and has conducted it with the
view of showing that, the exodus of ne
groes from North Carolina to Indiana
was trick of the Republican managers
to colonize Southern Indiana with col
ored voters in sufficient numbers to
secure the vote of the State for the Re-
publican ticket, though ostensihly his
purpose was TO inquire into the causes
Of the exodus from a labor point OF
view. The animus of the investigation,
however, was apparent before it was a
day old. The witnesses summoned
were Democrats who were hostile ia
the negro. Some had been engaged in
defrauding the negro of his political
rights Some had defrauded him OF
the fruits of his labor. Nearly all OF
them were preiudiced witnesses and in
sympathy with the infamous practices
Of bull-dozing. Now and then, how
ever, Mr.. Voorhees, fell into his own
trap, and was confronted by witnesses
who had not been properly coz oned,
and told the truth, while upon cross
examination it was established out OF
the mouths OF his own witnesses that
| the Democratic version of the exodus
was false from beginning to end. W
What is the result of Mr.. Voorhees,
investigation? He has piled up an inn
mense mass of testimony which no one
will ever read. He has shown thai
about 600 negroes, all told, have gone
INTO Indiana "a number too small Y

FOUR small boys started last week for
Texas to hunt buffaloes and fight In
dians, and had quite a spirited Journey
until they reached Pier Twenty, East
River, when sundry policemen took pity
on the hunted red man, also the nations
few remaining buffaloes, and so
changed the paFty's plans that Texas is
not likely to be as rich in valor as it
might have been. Other yenturesCme
souls, equally youthful, have started
West on similar errands; indeed, they
have been so numerous that their fan
cies and experiences no longer raise a
laugh; on the contrary, they arouse
sentiments that are any thing but face
tious. Nine, tenths of our American
boys are allowed to select their. own
reading matter, and they may be de-
pended upon to buy whatever, within
their means, is most exciting. Gener-
ally they find it in serial publications,
the contributors to which seem to inn
agine that nothing short of the sight of
gore-that of an Indian preferred-can
fully satisfy juvenile longings, so scores
of stories are published which no par
ent, no matter however much he ad-
mires bravery, would allow his boys 70
read did he know what they were.
Boys demand spirited stories, and
should have them; but are none Of the
writers alluded to able to bid adieu to
the Indian for little while and "work
up = some of the actual adventure of
every day life in respectable neighbor-
hoods and among people who are not
wholly vulgar and unprincipledP Sto-
ries just as exciting and strong may be
made from such material, and boy ish
longings for heroic lives may thus be
fostered without recourse to dishonesty
or brutality-without destroying prom
isipg young lives and breaking mothers
