self in that particular spot. Neitheris it
very likely. that could have been shot
by any of his- companious when sport
ing, as recreation of that sort, we be
lieve, is not a favorite in his class of
{ the 'happy 'proletaries of the sweet South.
Tf he were a Northein white man and
mechanic, one of our unhappy " =d
en," we should think he had been shot
at with. some murderous intent on ; but
that, we , know, is a thing they never do
on the other:side of. the bcider... . •
Now, on one of his eyes' is "a small
scar." Is this afro from a shot? Did a
part of the charge that lodged in the
wrist just fall short of a lodgment in the
brain also? Or was.it some other assail
ant of the citadel of life that failed to
make a breach here in-the =walls ?
"On the 'tight Ileg and thigh," also,
there are "several scars." Possibly,
gun-shot That they are on the right
side, also, favors that supposition. - Per
haps it is these that cause " the rocking
walk," for gun-shot wound are sometimes
known to be inconvenient, and even crip
pling: . But if the supposition be co-rect
that a charge of buck-shot has left these
wounds and scars, propound to us the oc•
ea: ion, good Doctor, of such shooting.—
Here and there among ns is a. man who
has brimght home from war some honor
able sears ; here and there a man whom*
some accident has crippled; but we do
not remember ever to have heard Wore
of 'a case like this, where a wretch is
scarred over half Ilia body with marks of
woundsooe -of which, at least. was made
by shot, ond - others it rational to con
clude, have a. similar cause. Hides so
peppered are unknown among us, except
it be of beasts. Are men thus used . in
Mississippi? -
We reiterate our`promise—Dr. Cooper
• shall certainly hear from - us if we hear
from Lit. But our report waynot be as
mollifying to the Doctor's outraged feel.
lugs, as his salve, we do not permit- our
selves to doubt, has - always been to the
wou..ds of Lit. On the whole, we think
that Boy las had shooting enough,. We
hope he has 'a pass of some sort. We
trust his ability to " tell any kind of a
tale to snit his purpose," -will stand him
in good- stead; and his laudable anxiety
to get to the Black Republicans shall be
gratified, if we fall in irith him, 'for he
sball go at once to the headquarters of the
nearest Republican Club. They are law
abiding men, and' will render duo obedi
ence to the Fugitive Slave law, when
properly brou&ht home to their conscience
and - reason. But if Littleton get among
them, and Samuel Cooper, M. D., is not
very - otose behind hiui, the chances of a
Commissioner fora ten dollar fee will-be,
in that ease, small. As Littleton makes
"-some pretension to proper-language, as
be can read and write"a pretension and
accomplishment to which', it is very clear,
the Di: himself has no title, we should
notr,be to guarantee that some
rough' fellows in this nelghborhood might
not, if they caught theme together, give
up the - M. D. to the copper-colored as a
fugitive froth justice, with - rather more
readiness than they' wenld - hand over the
Boy to the M. D. as a fugitive from iO. I

duct, but ire think there - might be some
disposition to sachloehavior among' the

'•• • -
;tfy.Dear Siri The pretended,le.tler from TTiFI
to Governor Seward : which you have seen,
is bogus. ' I presume the real letter is Eve,
times as long as tbat.
' I never asked an office of any Governor or
President,:thougb_l have refused one or two.
' I lime — wrote a letter to any President I
helped to .eleet, either before or after his
election. I never asked any political or Pe
cut iary favor of -Gov'ernor Seward, though I
think, I have donitnY share to promote his
elevation.' I never asked hinilor Weed, (Mir
anybody. : else) to - favor my, nomination for
Governor at any time. I was voluntarily, as
sured in 1854, by the men *l,O afterwards
engineered the' noMination 'of Clark, that I
could liti`Governor if, I would only join, a'
linaw-Nothing lodge, (which nobody out 'of
the cabal shontd,know,) but I -declined the
honor. • •
I I — What served iirltate me Was Mr. Weed .
cowing down here - and lecturingine op being
a' an - did:4e fur Goiernor (which I"had not
sought to be), alleging,that I was too unpop
ular to run, te., whet% I had not asked either
advice or.help from him nor from anybody
else. Raymond yas thereupon nominated
for nentena*-Goi - eruer; by Weed's " consent;
if not Ir9lp,' and-J vekpcctfully Wok leave of
the concern. 'tut lam sure I never threat
ebed.opposition to Governor Seward, as is
pretended; nor tld any thing more than notify
hien tlial;"for, vations reasons' therein
.speci
fied, I should thereafier faclat liberty to sup
port or oppose his further . elevation, as my
conviction of public good should froni time
to time dictate. Not having seen the letter
since I sent it, I have only a general recol
leCtion of its contents; butl am sure this is
tbe - spirit. and in this spirit I have - acted'ever
since, 'and shall act to the end.
Governor Seward has some 'great and many
good qualities, and is the only genuine demo
crat I ever knew. He really believes in equal
rights and. equal political franchises for every
human being, which you and I both know is
very rare faith. But he is wrong witb_re
gard to public expenditures, voting away
money lavishly and sometimes unjustifiably,
according to my notions. Nobody ever im
agined that he could giya.a corrupt vote; but
he has a blind - side toward the failings of
others in this" direction He has thus nt
tached to himself some friends whose support
is a dead loss. He knows bow decided I dif
fer from him on these matters, yet I should
have . voted for him tit Chicago in preference
to at least one other whose nomination was
pressed there. • There are-statesmen 'in all
parties, who share his one fault and lack his
many redeeming virtues.

HORACE GREELEY
The Gazette is highly pleased with - the
ticket, and.the harruony of the Convention.
ZED - From a gentleman who has just
returned from Louisville, Ky., and Cin-
Cinnati, Ohio, we learn that all parties
Otero concedo.that Lincoln and Hamlin
will be elected—they-say - they have the
inside track and must win the race. The
Bell and Everett ticket seems' to have the
most frienAi at Louisville, and its friends
there elahi that it 7illciiiry in t Ketilticky;
Tennessee, Louisiana and Missouri, at all
events, and are Sanguinis of more of the
southern States.'
We wish them joy of their hopes - ; and
there is it-chance of -their realization. But
what of it ?—evet:Y Free, State is now
nearly certain for Lincoln and Hamlin.
Even California is possibly - so inconse
quence the Republican Fuccess in Or
egon. Virginia, Maryland.and Kentucky
will each give Lincoln and Hamlin a re
spectable vote ; while _roma -are so san
guine as to believe that= Missouri will go
Republican.
4Eir A very leatiy tornado passedover
the eastern part of Crawford county on the
4th inst. At Titusville (we learn from
the Gazette) it blew a barn over fur J.
L. Chnse, killing one horse ;•took up the
house of 0. Moon,_ in which there were
four persons, and after carrying it seven
rods, set.it down right side : up without
injuring house 'or persons; unroofed . the
kitchen of Rev. G. U Hammond's' house,
carrying the roof across the street, 'and
partially unroofing the main building;
unroofed several other houses and barns
near it; unroofed Mr. Wining's heiuso."
carried it off its 'foundations - arid • tureed .
it round in the street; tore an old house
all to pieces,- and severely injured two
or duce persons in it; unreoieci_ the lar;lo
and elegant mansion •of G.. E. -Brewer,
(it is about the;size of 'J. - S. Itimm's
dwelling in this place,) moving the house
about one foot. and destroying all the
barns cud out.buildings.._ The west side
of the house was literally riddled by
boards and timbers blowing against it.—
The storm arose in the Di'erth-east at 7
P.. st., and left at the Suuth - -cinst. ,
one was kill‘td„ but several persons ,had
arms and ribs broken,' and were other-1
wise injured.. The editor of the Gazette
says that "-the whole tops of Large -trees
were tossed about, hundreds of feet above
the earth, like autumn leaves in a gale;''
and that eldvation of several hun
dred feet the air liras filed with " litter."
