A HINT TO TAVERN KEEPERS.

Landlords in this cold country are often heard to
complain that many people call upon them, enjoy the
comfort of cheering fire, and depart without CALI
ing for any thing" thus indirectly refusing to remu-
nerate them for the expense of their frewood. Now
this can be avoided for in nine out of ten,
ellers who do thus act under the influence of
rect moral principle, and not from that narrow spirit
which would rejoice to six pence at the expense
Of another. In severe cold weather. when good fires
are most needed, and way faring men are obliged to
stop oftsn to call for sprits-he almost total Of
tavern keepers present stock in rade-at every place
where FIRE is enjoyed, would only increase their dan.
ger of freezing. At the present day, when large
portion of community exerting their influence "a
pat check to the evils Of ntemperance, we know
not why ardent spirits should be considered the
qua non of a country tavern Thousands of the bes
men in society will not be continually pouring this H.
ouid poison down their throas for the sake of paying
for the Of the FIRE; and yet they are as willing to
pay for this comfort those who glad Of this fire
queut excuse for swallowing their favorite beverage
Why should not the ease and comfort OF the formeI
class be consulted as we'll as that Of the latter! Why
provide for them pot OF hot coffee AZ well az fol
the other class pot of hot sling Ii can be done with
equal ease. The same FIRE which warns the room will
keep urn Of coffee constantly M and the trouh
le of preparing it, would be if as much, al
the trouble of making rum drink. Let our landlord
try the experiment, and charge the same for bow
of coffee a. they do for glass Of sling, and they vii
not have SO much occasion to complain that traveller
warm themselves by their fires and 60 away withou
calling for any thing"

of one, as heretofore. The wood engravings repre-

go to the "Neck," where the gaows was erected al,

as they were passing their death. To US the sight
was extremely affecting, while in the mob who filed
the after the car, there was any thing else than
seriousness and soIemnity. The next day we stroed
out upon the Mill Dam, where were hundreds of the
lower classes of society work. Every ones mouth
was open upon the events Of the preceding day; yetit
evident their hearts were not softened by the sight
they had witnessed With vugariy and profanity,
they were describing some ofthe concomitant scenes
of the day, and their opinion of the conduct of the
crimnals. The hoarse laugh and rude jest with which
they dscoused of these things convinced us that they
were made better, but rather worse, by the scenes
