HoNouRABLE AcT.-We have pleasant fact
to mention in regard to one of our Indepen.
den, Military Companies. Owing to some
new arrangement, they had some funds on hand,
which they wished to dispose of, TO the amount
of SlOo; anc the question was, in what manner
they should be appropriated. One proposed a
dinner; another something else; but nothing
see med to meet the views Of the company ex-
actly, till the thought occurred to divide the
sum between the Orphan Asylum and the So
cie,y for the relief Of Aged INDECENT Females.
A resolution 10 this effect was Immediately a.
dop,ed. In the hand of such men, the interests
OF our country are sale. ~ Y Observer.
You've CuLpRIrs. We understand there are
now in Jail, in this town, half dozen or more
Of Young lads for the crime Of petty theft.
Some Of them are said to belong to respec table
families, whose parents would be the last to
countenance their children in acts of stealing.
While we feel no disposition to pallIate, the
dishonesty Of these young trausgressors should
not be spared-we mean the unprincipled per-
sons who will buy what the boys steal. Men
who will traffic with boys for old iron, copper,
and every other article that can be purloined,
without requiring evidence that those things
were honestly obtained, deserve, IN our esti
nation, imprisonment more than inconsiderate
children; for, as long as boys cah find ready
market for stolen goods, ,hefts will be commit

!. ORAroR EMMoNs.-Among the other solem-

the most troublesome and worrying men about

the grave and venerable signiors up stairs had
MADE no arrangements for an GRAFTON al that
given time; and it could not be pronounced,
