1'he Experience and Mis- j
eries of a Boston Mis- j
sionary.
J u.st as the Yon, l'liul was backing j
xmt, Amiuidad, with liis bandanna and
wardrobe included, stepped on the boat
find on reaching the cabin made himself
easy, as to all pious appearances,
and began to wear the demeanor of a
patron saint on a carnal mission. Thus
went the affair until about midnight,
when the boat lauded at a cotton pile.
Aminidad sat dosing by the stove,
dreaming, as we suppose, of the many
stories circulated during the years of
his boyhood, in his native climes, as to
Southern inhumanity towards the negro
race. Suddenly they began to roll the
cotton aboard. "Lend a helping hand
there, and fork them fellers aboard,"
roard the mate to his men. Our dreamy
hero caught tlio sound. The many
bales of cotton being rolled over by different
sets of hands, kept up a continuous
tliuuiping noise as though all below
stairs were engaged in a murderous
fight. "Cut 'im again," exclaimed
the mate every now and then. "Turn
'im over, head 'iin on his end; cut 'im
"again; keep him away from that doctor,
head 'im up; down with him;
roll liim over; cut 'im again; get a
.good holt on 'im; there that will do;
now, damn 'im, heave 'im the hole."
After listening to what ho supposed to
be a wholesale murder, and being horrified
by such barbarian exclamations,
-Aminidad thought to escape. Rising
from his chair, he passed out on the
boiler deck, when a pet bear, chained
to a stanchion, clasped him in his playful
embrace, a cunning trick the bear
'had been taught. Just at this moment
'< the mate wanted the yawl, and ordered
the crew to "let go the painters," at
which moment Aminidad screamed out
"for God's sake don't let the painters
loose, the bear has got me now;" and
. making an unusual effort, he tore loose
from the bear, jumped from the boiler
deck to the bank, and was not heard of
until through his recent reports published
up North against the sinloving
barbarous South.
Tlio pet bear referred to belonged to
Captian Ed. Ryland, Clerk on the
' Henry Von Phul, which frequently
amused himself hugging the passengers
and drinking honey and brandy with
tlie crew.?Memphis Balk-tin.

We thiulc the people of the Southern 1
States will find the tax lighter than
they anticipated, as a general rule, hut
still by no means trilling, and it should
receive immediate attention.
We furnish below a table of rates for
the different licenses required under

since xienry vv uru jjeeuuei iuuue a
study of the doctrine of eternal punish- ,
ment, his views on national affairs have
become more conservative. In his ]
" green and salad days," before hi6 '
judgment ripened, he was a red-hot (
radical, and given to very eccentric no- ,
:fions on morals and theology. But ;
\when the subject of hell-fire was pre- '
: sented to him, although he expressed J
- some doubts as to its literalnesss, yet it (
*. effected a happy change in the politics. (
He evidently made up his mind that, i
. although there might be no such place 1
. as hell, he had better shape his conduct
. so that he would never go there if he
was mistaken. We commend this idea i
to Stevens, Sumner and Greeley. When I
they feel uncharitable and malignant
towards their neighbors, let them con- .!
. suit Beecher on hell-fire,' and govern j
-themselves accordingly. ,
