of President Johnson. A resolution was also
offered to apponion representation, and to

tion in the House of any District. Nothing
else of importance done.
Vicious Stories.
[From the N. Y. Times.)
It seems the report we had that a white
man in Georgia had sawed off both the legs
of a negro to prevent his running away, is
not true. The person accused of the deed
(who is a doctor) has [sent us a letter expo
sing the falsity of the published statement. —
The authorities iu North Carolina have also
explicitly denied the innumerable reports
which have been sent North that negroes
were being hung and shot and stabbed whole
sale in that State. In short, most of the
tales which came for a while fast and num
berless, from the South,- about unparalleled
and fiendish cruelty to black men, have been
proven false.
The friends of the negro are doing him in
finite harm by the circulation of such false
hoods. Credulous people may believe them
for a few days, but their contradiction de
stroys faith, not only in the men who send
them, but in the really truthful complaints
concerning the treatment of the colored peo
ple. The blacks are assuredly, in some
places, suffering many wrougs at the hands
of the superior race, but these will never be
corrected by the publication of sensational
falsehoods.
A Snake Carried in a Lady’s Crino
line.—One day last week a party of young
folks, male and female, in the township of
Frankliu, went to the huckelberry rack, a
distance of about eight miles from this neigh
borhood. After reaching the rock the day
was spent in the usual way—by picking ber
ries aud wandering over the vast plain of
rock. Evening came, and the parties returned
to their homos.
One young lady after reaching her resi
dence and performing her customary work
about the house, repaired to her room to re
tire for the night, aud, upon undressing, what
did she discover, nicely entwined around her
waist, between her crinoline and under gar
ments, but a snake fully twenty inches in
length. As might be expected, on making
such a discover}-, the lady's feeliDgs can be
better imagined than described.
She gave the alarm, when other inmates
of the house came to the room and dispatch
ed his snakesliip. It turned out to be one of
the spotted adder species, which is very nu
merous on the rock. Now, how did the rep
tile manage to get in that position ? The
only way such can be accounted for is this:
Sometime during the day the young wo
man must have been sitting down on the
rock, and the broad skirts now worn might
possibly have covered the snake, which in
its endeavors to escape, between the gar
ment, aud so worked itself up to the waist
unfelt by the party. She stales that several
times during the day aud evening, she felt a
sort of griping sensation about her body, hut
delicacy in company constrained her to bear
it rather than attempt to ascertained the
cause. — Huntingdon Journal.
(From the Courier des Etates Unis, Sept. 8.)
We have received from Washington the
following despatch :
The Mexican question was discussed at
the cabinet meeting held on Tuesday, and
which was presided over by President John
son All the members present expressed
themselves favorable to the shtv y«o except
Mr. HariaD, Secretary of the Interior, who
desired that Juarez should nt least be ludi
reetly supported. Quite a lively scene took
place between Mr. Seward and Mr. Harlan,
the premier telling Mr. Harlan that he sac
rificed the true interests of tbe country to the
love of vain popularity, that it was not dig
nified for this government to aid .Tuarez in
directly, and that it was not advantageous to
support him openly. President Johnson fully
agrees with the views of the Secretary of the
State, and declared that ho regretted the
speech of Mr. Harlan made some time since
in public ; and that members of tbe cabinet
ought uever to forget that their words are
always construed as haring been inspired by
the government. Ho would lo9e no oppor
tunity to disavow any such ireonsidcrate
speeches the same as he had disavowed Sher
idan's views by reducing his army two
thirds.
Mr. Johnson, when the meeting was abon t
breaking up, said that he would not deter
mine upon a fixed policy toward Mexico be
fore tbe meeting of Congress,when he would
discuss in his message whatever might seem
best foi the country. It is evident that the
President U animated with the same pacific
feelings as Mr. Seward and the majority of
the cabinet.
If it is true that Juarez has evacuated Chi
huahua, and is obliged to take refuge in the
United States, the resumption of official re
lations with Mexico will be considerably fa
cilitated.
