There are n very few people aware of
the richness of tlic mineral depot-its iu
South in Missouri, though the lead mines
of Washington and vrntiklin counties
have been in operation orer half a cento
ry. The lead derived from those mines
rivals the celebrated Oalcna lead in qua!
ity, and more than surpasses it in quanti
ty and parity of tho ore. while those of
Granny have acquired a world wide ccl
ebriety, but what miy appear strange to
some u the fact that wh.'c mines for. lead
in the extreme SouthwcM of the state are
being successfully worked, at n distance
of over a huuJrcd miles from railioad, or

These views are sought to be impressed

the source of saucn difficulty.
The fact should be impressed unon the
minds of the people not only that the

Chuges la Taxatlou.
The Committee of Ways and Means, in
Congress, have framed a bill embodying
in part the ehanges in the revenue 'which
havo alaeady Wen agreed upon. The
tax on incomes has been fixed at tVe $er
cent, on all over ono thousand dollars.
The taxes in schedule A, which compri
se a great variety of articles, such as
Watches, carriages, 4c. have all been
thrown off except upon billiard tables
ani carriages worth over three hundred
dollars. Cotton is taxed five cenU per
pound, payable not by the planter, but
monthly by the manufacturer who recei
ves it, or by the exporter at the rime of
sh.pnient. The tax of one dollar a bar
rel on crude petroleum is removed. The
iax on transportation is also reinered.
The tsx cn whijkev is not chsnffsJ.
! These are the important features of the
I bill, though it covers several miitor arti
ClOJ.
Persecutions or Germans In Tt. is.
The Austin correspondent of tho Cin
cinnati Commercial gives accouMrof the
persecutions of German immigrants in
Texas. This writer says :
"Tho hatred of tbe rebel leaders was
early aroused against the Germans by the
refusal to participate in tho election 'for
the secession convention. In Gillespie
county thpy held no election at all. and
in other counties sent none but Union
men. When tho ordinance ws submit
ted to the popular vote Gillespie county
gave 46T votes against it and 14 for it, o'f
whom only one was a Gerniau. Kerr
county voted solid against it, ani other
counties did nearly as well.
This hatred has continued to inccae,
and the personal indignities and sacrifice
of the life of Germans have been very
great.
It is intimated by intelligent gentle
men that the German population Jq the
countiea abont San Antonio actually dc
trea;ed during the war. The colony i
supposed to have contained about 11,000
Let' 1 re tho war, while now it is estimated
at several tnousands less."

psrtment of State has received authentic
information thit the three colored child
ren of Hose Blgria, of New Orleans, who
were taken to Havana without the con
sent of their patents, have been sent back
to her by the United Slates consul at
Havana. General Canby gave informa
tion concerning the abUuction or removal
of the children, when the State Depart-
mem insutuiea measuTce wnicn led to
their recovery. v. .

Tho following eloquent appeal in favor
of granting tho right of suffrage to' col
ored, occurs in a speech recently nado
in tho House of Representatives, by a
member from one of the New Sngland
Sutcs : ,
""The white man' government," do you
say ? Go to Fort Pillow. Stand upon it
ramparts and in its trenches, and recall
the horrid butchery of the black man
there because he had joined you against
the rebellion, and then say if you will,
"This is tho white man's eovernment!"
Go to Wagner I Follow in the traok of
tho Massachusetts itiy-ourth as they
went to the terrible assault, with the
guns flashing and roaring in the darkness.
Mark how unflinchingly they received
the pelting iron hail into their bosoms,
and now they breasted the foe I See how
nobly they supported and how heroically
they fell with their devoted leader I
Count the dead. Piok up the severed
limbs. Number tho wounds. Measure
tho blood spilled, and remember why and
wherefore nnd in whose cause the negro
thus fought and suffered, and then say,
if you can, This is the white man's gov
ernment I"
Go to Port Hudson I Go to Richmond!
Go to Petersburg I Go anywhere nnd ev
erywhere, to every battle field where the
negto fought, where danger was greatest
and death surest, and tolfmc, If you can,
that "this is the white man's govern
ment I"
And than go to Salisbury and Colum
bia, and Andersonville, and, as you shud
der at the ineffable misery of those dens,
.and think of those who rastlio dead line
and were not shot, but escaped to the
woods and were concealed and fed and
piloted by the black men, nnd novcr once
betrnyed, but often enabled to escape and
retarn to their friends, and then tell me
if this is "a vfhito man's eovernment."
Then, sir, follow one of those escaped
prisoners to his home. See how lovingly
tue mother clasps tho emaciated torm ot
her darlinc soldier hov in her arms: how
carefully she feeds and nurses him ; how
gently she tends him; how constantly
she watohes over him ; and, as she bends
her car to hear him tell how the bluck
man saved him, whisper in the other par,
"This is the white man's government."
Go to the grave ! Ave, sir, go to the
grave of ono of those devoted black men;
where they lie all along the march ol
your armies, and upon every battle field
and rampart, and. remeuiberiuj: there by
what fiery trials and struse'es this nation
