 The atmosphere must have been overcharged with oxygen yesterday morning, judging from the effect it evidently produced. The denizens of the center of town lived exceedingly rapid for short time. so much so as to draw very heavily on the reser- voir of their future existence. Two of them were so overcharged with the positive and negative elements of life that they came together with a rush. They were J. c. Goodwin and George Compton. The rush was precipita. ed by an exchange of remarks in regard to Missouri. After expressing their decided opinions, in easy hearing of each other, of the state, they went their separate ways, each wearing a peculiar expression on his counte- nance which the tender caresses of the other had brought forth. J. c. Goodwin had large confusion on his right cheek and George Compton a flowing nose. After the oratory had ceased the crowd stood spellbound. still listening to the eloquence.
