traction of Green, which was refused,
.whereupon, Early struck him, ith
-the butt of a revolver, and repeatedly
with his fist, and kicked him in the
bowels and stomach. They were sep
arated by parties standing near. Ear
ly then picked up Green's cane and
ttruck him with it threo or four times,
calling him a liar and thief. Early
was about to strike Green again, when
Green drew his revolver and shot Ear
ly in the left eide, from which he died
in five minutes. Green Is now in jail

received ia the affray.

Amnesty Delicately Ccnevred.
The President's mercy towards the
very chief of rebels has been fully ex
emplified, and rfrt, forth !:. hU late
proclamation, to be found u this issue.
He handles the subject very delicately,
not once mentioning but stated $0
generally tA tv in; IjideMhe- wIk"?
Democratic party, 'and such cthers,f
any there be, "who were engaged, or
in any way participated in the late in
surrection or rebellion," granting to all
such, "full pardon and amnesty for
the offense of treason against the Uni
ted States, or of adhearing to their en
emies during the late civil war," We
suppose that during the remainder of
his inglorious administration, he will
devise the "waya and means" by
which he may further proclaim a par
don to thtso persons who "participa
ted" and.thcso who "adhered", for
causing the nation to go to such vast
expense to prevent the "participa
tion," and to circumvent the "adhere
ing." The great mass of voters can't
overlook this great crime in those two
parties, and while they work and la
bor to pay the enormous taxes thus
made necessary by the wrong doing of
these two parties, who, otherwise
claim to be Democrats, they are con
tinually reminded that, had they not
"participated" and "adhered,", this
enormrrus public 'debt would never
have been contracted, nor these enor
mous taxes levied. Perhaps a procla
mation may wipe all this out of the
minas or tne present, or succeeding
generation of voters, so that future
historians may not record what great
political party it was that got up, , or
carried cm, and gave aid and comfort
to "the late insurrectionists," and
thus made necessary the creation of so
great a public debt for their suppress
ion. Yes, Andy, another proclama
tion is necessary. Democrats groan
terribly under the odium fastened up
on them by this debt, and a pardon is
imperitively demanded. So let it
come.
The Christmas Festivities
the Episcopal Church.
or
Ms. Editor: -1 seldom cross the
threshold of any place of worship, but
the remembrance of many by-gone
Christmases hovered over my memory
last Friday evening, and I could not,
without feeling the writhings of a
wronged conscience, absent myself
from the crowds of worshipers who
were hurrying to the different church
es of the city. I set out alone, fori
was a stranger, and sooil found myself
in front of a neat brick edifice. The
sound of children's voices, mingled
with tho notes of an organ, welcomed
me as I entered. w
"Carol, Christmas Carol !" '
It might have been fancy that told
ma then, but 1 thought I had heard
the song in the days of my-boyhood,
and my heart beat faster at the sweet
recollection of the time when I too
had sang before a Christmas Tree.
The distribution or tne guts came
next. ' Each child had something
hanging from the green limbs for him
or her no disappointed faces. Each
came forward when named, and re
ceived tho present with thet glow of
delight which only passes over the
face of a child.. The tree was soon
stripped of its varied fruits, leaving
nothing but the brilliant tapers. For
a moment I - forgot that I was but a
stranger nothing for me! As the
last notes of the closing carol sank in
to silence, 1 left tho church, with the
feeliags-of one who has been forgot

gaged in it are the managers of the

It is understood this combination
with their associates meet at the solic

but of the entire West, to establish
express facilities throughout the terri
tory now occupied by the American
Merchants'" Union Express Company.
