Saturday Morning, December 9,1871

now has two import

ant bills before Congress, which he will push, if possible, to passage at this session. One is designed to effect, through a contraction of the currency, a return to specie payments, and is a carefully prepared measure, with many new and special features adapted to the present financial condition of the country. The other is his famous civil rights bill, which has been twice adversely reported on.

Philadelphia "Press" gives Presi

the same degree of credit

for the temperatenees with which he deals with the KuKlnx Elan in his message as for his vigorous treatment of them with the law. On this question, more than any other, perhaps, the President has been personally maligned and politically libelled. In his message he had a full opportunity to disprove every charge aud deny every assertion. The facts were before him, and he could have made such iiee of them as he saw fit. He could have proven the murder of a negro in nearly overy township of nine counties of South Carolina in the last year, and the scourging of a dozen white and black men in each during the same time. But no he recites none of the evidence, and merely alludes to the report of the Committee on Southern Outrages as the necce?sitv that inspired his action. Most men, with less self-reliance, less firmness in- the right, would have undertaken a defence, but

felt that none was needed. If

there is to be any vindication, it will be by the hand of time.

and others for alleged par

ticipation in a murder which took place twenty four years ago.

BOCK,

whose

life was taken on that occasion, was one of the early victims of the Mormon hierarchy. At that time thousands of miles of wilderness were between the Mormons and civilization. They ruled supreme over the settlements which they had made in the solitude. There was none to dispute their tyranny, and their resolution was taken without fear of the consequences or expectation of responsibility at any time. And yet, in a quarter of a century, the authority of the nation has advanced to the stronghold of error, and now this long-forgotten murder and outrage is to be answered for, although many witnesses have disappeared and many of the participators are dead. There is no statute of limitation against the State, and, in a matter of this kind, the old uiaxim, '"Murder will out," will have its due weight and influence-

An Involnnt«ry Deserter. During one of Napoleon's r.eftiarkable campaigns, a detachment of a corps, commanded by Davoust, occupied the Isle of Rugen, which they were to evacuate. They embarked with such precipitation, that they forgot one of their sentinels, who was posted in a retired spot, so deeply absorbed in the perusal of a newspaper containing an account of one of the Emperor's splendid victories as to be totally unconscious of their departure. After going to and fro many hours upon his post, he lost patience, and returned to the guard room, which he found empty. On inquiry, he learned, with despair, what had happened, and cried: "Alast alas! I shall be looked upon as a deserter dishonored, lost, unhappy wretch that I am!"

His lamentations excited the compassion of a worthy tradesman, who took him to his house, did all in his power to console him, taught him to make bread, for he was a baker, and after some months gave him his only daughter, Justine, in marriage. Five years afterward a stranger sail was seen to approach the island. The inhabitants flocked to the beach, and soon discovered in the advancing party, a numberof soldiers, wearing the uniform of the French army. "I am done for now—my bread is baked," cried the dismayed husband of Justine.

An idea, however, suddenly occurred to him, and revived his courage. He ran to his house, slipped into his uniform and, seizing his firelock, returned to the beach, and posted himself on sentry at the moment the French were landing. "Who goes there?" he cried, in a voice like thunder. "Who goes there, yourself?" replied one in the boat. "Who are you?" "A sentinel." "How long have you been on guard here?" "Five years?" rejoined our man.

Davoust laughed at the quaint reply, and gave a discharge in due form to his involuntory deserter.

Cartouche's Constancy.

The genuine roport of the execution of Cartouche affords stjtae very dramatic par ticulars not generally known. This brigand was not only aft immensely powerful man, but he had an iron will, and, when undergoing the fulfillment of his sentence, suffered the application of the "question" in very severe forms, without for a moment flinching or wavering ii his determination not to betray his accom plices, persuaded as he was that before the final issue he certainly should be rescued by the armed force of his desperate band. With wonderful constancy and confiding patience did the brigand chief await the arrival of his followers and even when his limbs were so dislocated and mangled that he was about to be carried off to the scaffold to which he was no longer able to walk, he vet held firmly to his conviction of their intrepidity and fidelity. Alas! however, for this he roic faith, which might have been better placed, no signs of relief appeared and when, arrived under the shadow of the guillotine, he saw himself hopelessly forsaken, his heart was filled with disappointment and rage. "Siay," said he to the Valets de boureau, who supported his shattered frame, "I have a revelation to make."

On this, Cartouche was taken back— Heaven knows in what condition—to his cell, the condemned cell, an awful place to behold pens and paper were brought, and the wretched convict made a last supreme effort to write down the names of his false friends and faint-hearted adherents. It was in vain: his arm dropped lifeless by his side, and he was fain to content his vengence by dictating the fatal declaration. Thirty names he gave, including those of two of his mistresses*, which head the list, as it there stands appended to his "acte de condemnation."

This evidence, however though fatal to hi* gang, served him but little, and the sentence which condemned him to die on the wheel was not even commuted for we read in the margin of the record the fearful words "rompurif," testifying to the mode of his death, and another note states that he lived twelve hours on the rack!

Persecutions In China..

To the "Chrictian Advocate and Journal"' of to-day, the Rev. E. S. Mac lay gives an iatereating accoflnt of the persecutions to which the missionaries in the Hokchiang,: district, which lies sooth of, Foochow" have been siilyected he says: "1. At Haikau, a town.six miles southeast of Hokchiang city, our native preacher, Hu Chiong Mi, has been severely beaten' by a mob. On August 31, a band of rowdies seized him in his own house, dragged him into the street, beating him mercilessly all the while. While this gang was engaged in beating and dragging him tfirotJglv the street, another Company destroyed everything in his house. The noise of the riot attracted to the spot an inferior military officer, who is in charge of the town. He at once commanded order, and proceeded to inquire into the cause of the disturbance. The assatl&ntB began to denounce our preacher as being connected with foreigners, nnd as having been hired by them to poison wells, etc. 'What proof have you,' said the officer, 'that he poisons your wells? Did you find any poison in his possession?' To this direct quest ion they were compelled to answer no. "Well," continued the officer, 'has any one been poisoned?' To this question, also, their unwilling answer was, no. By this time the assailants became alarmed and ran away, leaving our preacher and some of his friends in the protection of the officer. "2. September 2, at Tengtiong, a larger town, about eight miles west of Hokchiang city, Brother Ling Mi Lai, our native preacher, was seized by a mob and beaten almost to death under circumstances of aggravated cruelty. It appears that a few days before the riot a dog belonging to a resident of the town had died, and the rumor was at once put in circulation that the dog had been poisoned by the Christians. The people professed to believe this unfounded and silly story, and used it as a pretext for attacking our preacher. They seized and beat him till life seemed almost extinct. One of the fiends then proposed that they disinter the dead dog, put some of its liquid corruption into a bowl, and force our preacher to drink it but the proposal was too horrible to meet with general favor even among such miscreants They then told our preacher that if he would sign a paper confessing that he had been hired by foreigners to distribute poison, etc., they would release him but if he refused to sign the paper they would beat him to death. He replied 'Foreign era have not hired me to distribute pois on I am entirely innocent of the charges that you bring against me mv life is in your hands God knows that I am inno cent.' They set upon him again with yells and execrations, such as perhaps on ly a Chinese mob can utter. The preacher believed that instant death awaited him, and (as he touchingly savs) felt thankful that he was counted worthy to die for the blessed Saviour, whom, having not seen, he loved. Just atthis juncture, by what seems to me a direct interposi tion, some of the respectable people of the town interfered in favor of our preacher, and stopped further proceedings More dead than alive he was taken to a place of safety, and subsequently was removed to Hokchiang city. Measure are being taken to bring the guilty parties to justice. "3. September 3, Brother Li Cha Mi, one of our preachers, stationed at Aug liau city, in the Hingwha prefecture, some seventy miles south of Foochow, was nearly killed by a gang of footpads, who attacked him as he was walking along one of our moat public roads. "when his consciousness, after the first attack, and, in a measure his strength, had returned, he'tried to resume his journey and, though weak and suffering great pain, he managed to make some progress, avoiding the main road and keeping to the hills. He had not gone far when another crowd attacked him with their farming utensils, saying that he had been hired by foreigners to poison wells, etc. One of the assailants struck him a very heavy blow on the arm with a hoe, and it is thought the bone is shattered. In his exhausted state he was utterly unable to endure such an attack, and swooned away. The mob appeared to think he was dead, and one ma proposed dig a grave and conceal his body. He, how ever began to revive, and as the crowd gradually dispersed, be arose and staggered toward his destination. Presently he heard annother crowd running toward him calling out 'Poisoner!' 'Kill him!' Though ready to drop from sheer exhaustion, Brother Li ralllied his strength and tried to run but, being off the road and unacquainted with the country, he suddenly found himself on the brink of a rocky precipice some twenty feet high. 'Finding myself falling (and here I quote bis own words),.I thought of Stephen, the first Christian martvr and as he, when stoned, prayed with his latest breath for his persecutors, I commended my soul to God and prayed for those who seemed to thirst for my blood.' Strange to say, the fall did not kill him and on returning to consciousness he found himself lying alone at the foot of the precipice. It is probable the people supposed him to be dead, and fearing lest they might be charged with having killed him, they had all run away. From this place he crawled and walked till he reached one of our chapels, where he was received and cared lor by the kind Christian friends. This case has also been duly reported to the Chinese authorites. "At Hokchiang, a district city some forty miles south of Foochow, there had been considerable excitement for some weeks, but the mob was held in check. Brother Sia was unremitting in his efforts to protect the Christians. Earl^ on the morning of September 4 he was informed by a friend that a plot had beenanranged to attack the Christians and tear down the chapel on that day, and that during the previous night inflammatory placards to this effect had been posted throughout the City. The danger was so imminent, and had sprung upon them so suddenly, that the poor Christians were utterly confounded Brother Sia saw at once the grave character of the emergency and de termined to do ail in his power to avert the threatened calamity. A petition ad dressed to the magistrate was at. once drawn up, and Brother Sia, accompanied by some of the brethren, took it to the magistrate's yamen (palace). It happen ed that the magistrate was absent, but the deputy in charge received the paper, and, on reading its contents, seemed immediately to appreciate the urgency of the case. Without the slightest delay or equivocation he gave a favorable answer to the petition, and at once issued orders to meet the emergency. Calling for the the constable of the ward, he ordered him to go through the streets of the city and warn the people against committing any acts of violence against our chapel. He then sent a posse of soldiers to take charge of the chapel during the day, and keep it from'all harm.

I can not close this communication without referring in terms of the highest commendation to the prompt and most efficient efforts of M. M. DeLano, Eaq., United States Consul in Foochow, to assist us in this trying time.

In the legend of Gambrinttt the fiend is still oufts ingloriously defeated. Gambrinus was a fiddler, who, being jilted by his sweet heart, went out into the woods to hang himself. As he was sitting on the bongh, with cord about his neck, preparatory to takingthe £aial plnnge, suddenly a tall man in a green cbat appeared before, him and ofijyed Jtiifl £t£?i«SU. might become as wealthy as he'hkea a make his sweeliie&rt hurst with vexation at her own folly but in thirty years.hemust give up his,soul kBeelzebub.

Aided biySatan, he invented chlmingbells and Jag^r beer, for both which achievments his name is held in grateful remembrance by the Teuton. No sooner had the Holy Roma^ Emperor quaffed a gallon or -wo of .the new beverage than he made Gambriniis.

"Tie Nation.'?

From the Cin. Commereial.i i'h-.id'sd The Governor of Kentucky goes through the motions of denouncing the organized lawlessness in that 'State, and then at tempts to excuse it by Baying it has been provoked and aggravated by the unwar ranted interference of Federal authority Under this head his remarks are full of malignancy. His complaint of National authority ''favoring the negro and op pressing the white man" can be readily answered by reference to the incapacity of such politicians as himself to regcognize that a negro has rights that a white man is bound to respect.

:The

Governor

chilled withhorror at the- idea that the Federal interference is not stopp the time will come when Kerituckians will forget to take special pride in their State, and remember first that they are citizens of the Nation. Yes, sir! That time is coming as stirely as next harvest time. The little petty local pride that politicians of the caliber of the Governor of Kentncky tickle themselves with, is another relic of barbarism, and is being whistled down the wind, to be hooted out of the world. The recommendation of the Governor that negio testimony should be admitted to the courts of the States, is a symptom that the Bourbontpm of Kentucky is thawing out There is a conflict, though,' of Federal and State jurisdiction, that will sooner or later, the Governor thinks, produce "the most serious consequences." Well, pretty serious consequences have been produced by a conflict of that character. It is sometimes called "the war," and sometimes "the unpleasantness." One of the serious consequences produced was "the nation." It is big enough to take care of itself and the President and Congress of the United States, whatever their short comings, do not underestimate this au thority.

Governor Hoffman's Advice to a Man who was Storing Up a Bullet ..

From the New York Herald.] I made a remark touching the riot of this year, and referrred to the Binking ol that excitement in the greater ones that had followed the exposure of the opera tion of the ring. This drew from the Governor the recitation of an incident showing what sudden changes may come over a man blinded by prejudice. "I was sitting here in my office some days ago," said the Governor, "when a man sent word he wished to see me." was rery busy, but I give every body an audience, and admitted him. After taking a Beat he asked: "You are the Governor of the State, believe?" "Yes/' "And as such commander- in- chief of the forces?" •'I am." "He then questioned me upon the right of officers to order ball cartridges to be used, and I explained to him the circumstances when they should be very guarded in firing on the people." Suddenly he said: "Governor, I had a brother-in-law killed that day by your troops." "I am very glad of it," I responded, "if he were guilty." "Bnt he was innocent.'* "Then I am most heartily sorry."

Then he pulled from his vest pocked a bullet, and, holding it up,remarked: "That is the bullet that killed him Had I seen you the day after the riot I would have killed you." "I have no doubt of it, sir," I replied. "Governor, I am keeping this bullet for the the next 12th of July to kill some one." "You are? My freind, have you considered the mattter deliberately? Did vour brother-in-law leave a widow?"

The Divine of Plymouth Church wlita he was a Poor Han—Something about his Parlor, Kitchen, Bedroom and Cellar.

Henry Ward Beecher defined last night the true Christian as a man who was melodious, inside and out who was always humming, and singing, and thanksgiving. When he said this in his easy, offhand manner, his face lit up with a smile the joy he spoke of shone on his countenance. He showed how, as life goes on and our material prosperity increases, we lose the spirit of thanksgiving, and, in speaking of his own experience, said: "When I first began preaching and had but two rooms, I felt more grateful, 1 think, than I do now, for all the comforts ot my house. I went away from Cincinnati to preach in Lawrenceburg, a wretched little village. I had no patrimony all I had was my salary, and that amounted to $400. [Laughter.] I went on that to marry my wife, which cost me $200, and I bad exactly eighteen cents when 1 came back. I remember I never slept on the spare bed of a friend of mine then but I felt deeply grateful for it. It was then I had two rooms one was kitchen celler, and sitting room, the other parlor, study, and bedroom. [Laughter.] The cellar we made by putting things under the bed. [Laughter.] When Judge Bernard gave me his cast-off clothes to wear I was grateful for it, although—he being a slim man, while I was rather well developed—it was a tigh» fit. And eiill I could have said, 'I, the son of Lyman Beecher, President of a theological college, here in a sneaking little village, with no church, no elder, and no one to make an elder out of.' [Laughter.]. I remember when I went out to destitute places to preach, I had a deep sense of gratitude for the blessing of being permitted to preach the Gospel."—N. F. Sun.

chimes, meditatively drinking beer with his nobles and burghers around him Then Beelzebub sent Jocko, one of his imps, with orders to bring back Gambrinus before midnight. But Jocko was like Swiveller's Marchioness, ignorant of the' taste of beer, never having drunk

NEW YORK STORE.

As THE SEASON ADVANCES and the cold, chilly winter days ai* upon as, the question of comfortable, warm clothes .for the femily %flgrt38c§^he mitid of every father in the land, A consultation with the "good, wife" brings up the question Whero can we buy our supply of Wintw Dry Goods to the best advantage which one of. the mstiy stores ia Terro Santo offers the best inducements, and furnishes the best goods at the lowest prices? The mind of the J8 •'good wife" is roadily made up. She remembers quickly, that the ~.'£ New York Store, this reliable and popular House, has proven itself. worthy of her patronage, and finds little trouble to convince her husband, whose thoughts have been wandering through the immense piles of Dry Goods that are here stored, that the bet place for them to trade, is at this well known establishment. She speaks of the courteous treatment received at the New York Store remembers ttie strictly jdst and honorable dealings of this House, and exhorts in words of praise "the one-price system." and consequently low prices "for all kinds of goods have never been overcharged at the New "York Store. I have always boueht my goods cheaper there thaii "anywhere else," said she I "and~l know we will save money bv "buying our Winter supply at this store! Thfey keep the best goods 'and I have never found them to misrepresent a single article 1"— The question is settled! The old gentleman hands out the cash, and she proceeds to the New York Store with a happy heart

Here is the bill of goods she bought and what she "saved" by buying them at the New York Store. ,,
