"HUsHABY."
IIushaby Billy,
Let the wind blow,
You can't get Governor,
And that you well knoSf-
Iou may 'wiggle aud wrigge,'
Cough, sneczc and hem,
Turn to aud count noses
But still twill be LEM.
e., lIu-haby Billy,
We know you need crnk,
And old Jim has got it,
Al least so you think
Get the blind side of him
If you possibly can,
Or else he'll discover
Not much Of man.
lIushaby Billy,
For EHery is old,
Ee beat YOU sht last time
Asl have been told;
He'll do ii again,
As he done it before,
In spite Of your spculing,
Your logic, or law.
ITushaby Billy
And keep yourself still,
You know you can do
"Smart things" ifyou will
Pay attention to Dutee,
Make him your guide,
And then out Of favor
You'll both take ride.
Ilushaby Billy
And stick TO your clan,
Yon think you can muster
Full many man
Aud among them the anti,
The lawyer, the wit
Who talks of his talent,
Yet shows no, bit.
IIushaby Billy,
Priy don't make fuss,
Take trip ltJf"northward,
Or things vii! grow weIse;
Learn 10 be prudent
And leave oil your ''siraJ'ing,"
Or down goes your 'apple-carr
spite Of your braying.
llushaby Billy,
The BuH 5 by the horns;
lie treads rather heavy
Take care of your corns;
The "SuJ" he is wralhy,
lie sputters and blows,
IrCIAY is elected
He'll bite Off his own nose.
Then hushaby, Billy.
On the tree top,
You shall be put up,
And EHcry shall drop,
But if the bough breaks,
Omy! what fall Z!
Down comes poor Billy,
Dutee and all.

pronounced either ID moments OF prosperity or

In England. the land Of liberty, the government
has ordered fast-days and prayers for avertng the
pest. In France the theatres are opened on the
festival of Easter, as if it were intended both to
defy the national scourge and to scOff at the most
solemn of Christian feasts. But let US stop here

death commands silence every where round US.

might be consigned to that place Of repose Of
which in these days no one can scarcely be afraid,

RICHMOND, May 81.
Meeting of the Citizens Of Richmond. - Yes.
teriay evening after o'clock, one OF the most
numerous and highly respectable meetings Of the
citizens Of Richmond, that ever We have witnes.
sed, took place in the Capitol. Much Of the
bone and muscle Of the city appeared on this in
teresting occasion.
On the motion of the Mayor, Chief Justice
Marshall took the Chair. and George Wythe
Munford, Esq. was appointed Secretary.
The Chairman addressed the meetingina most
impressive manner on the object tor which they
we're called together. He stated the immense
Importance of the proposed work to the State at
large, and to the citizens Of Richmond in parti-
cuiar. lie remarked that the shares would only
be called for in very remote and gradual install
ments--that as a mere stock for the investment
of capital 1t was likely to be profitable; and that
to the inhabitants Of Richmond, it held out eve-
ry prospect Of augnenting in large ratio the val
ue Of every inch Of ground and every article OF
property.
Mr.. Chapman Johnson then rose to address the
meeting-He dwelt upon the advantages Of the
work in every variety of view-suppOrted his po.
sitons by several statistical calrulations-and
concluded with proposing the following Resolu.
tons, which were unanimously adopted:
Resolvcd, That the people Of Richmond, deep
Iy sensible of the great value If the charter
which has been offered by the General Assembly
to the James River Kanawha company, and feel
ing it their duty to use every effort to make that
charter available, will testify their sincerity in
this opinion. and their strong sense Of this duty,
by subscribing for the stock to the uttermost Of
their ability
Resoiued, That COMMITTEE Of seven persons
be appointed to enquire what further measures
ought to. be adopted by the citizens Of Richmond,
with view to recommend the chsrtlh Appblic
favor, aud procure subscriptions stock ;
and that when the Committee aMDprSP pared to
report, they give public notice, and invite ano-
Their town meeting.
The Chair appointed the following Commit
tee:-Messrs. Chapman Johnson, Joseph Marx,
Richard Anderson, Robert Standard, John G
Williams, Thomas Rutherford, aud Lewis Webb.
| On motion Of Mr.. Johnson, the Chairman of
the meeting, was added as Chairman of the Com
mitfee.
MIR. Johnson then, ia pursuance of his resou-
the number of shares which he had determined
to take. Various other citizens did the same.
The whole number Of shares taken lat even.
ing was 665-These. added to the number pre-
viOusly taken in this city made 1902 shares-to
which, add, the shares taken 10 Kanawha on the
two first days, 735. and 90 al Buckingham court
! house. and II at another point heard from, make
make 1914 shares. or $780,, 400.
The work must succeed if it be prosecuted in
the proper spirit. Onwards, then-Onwards,

ma Moral Association.
The Directors beg leave TO Report-Tha'
on the l4th February 1881, eight persons mel
in this town, for the laudable purpose of form
ing themselves into an association, ON the prin
ciple of entire abstinence from the use Of ar.
dent spirits.
After mature elaboration, particularly as
to the effect it might have on our isolated SO
ciety, it was unanimously agreed that the ex.
pertinent should be made, and Constitution
was accordingly adopted.
At that time, the most sanguine in favor Of
such an association, did not anticipate the
number of lis members to exceed thirty, at
The expiration of the first year, but we have Oh.

cession Of members, and your Directors an
with heart felt satisfaction now enabled to re-
port, that serenity three persons have subscribed
their names to our Constitution, of this num-
Der, only one has died, and one has been ex-
PEELED, leaving the number of members on
this association, at this time, seventy-one.
There is provision in the Constitution,
that any member may withdraw from the SO.
cety, on application to the Directors; but
we congratulate the association that there has 4
not been even one application for that pur-\
pose.
We believe that the society has had ia.
|vorable influence on the moral character Of
the community, and that its members have
generally, enjoyed high state of health.
The effect produced on the youth of our
town, is not among the least of its benefits;
juvenile Temperance Society, consisting Of
forty nine members, has been formed under
the auspices Of our association, thus Offering
"a pledge that the next generation at least,
shall be a MORAL and sober people.

To his Excellency John Reynolds, Governor Of

Of the III. Militia.
SIR,
! have received your order of the Sd ult. this
being first mail that has passed here in three
weeks; l embrace this first opportunity Of re-
porting to my proceedings under your fur.ner o.
der. Immediately upon receiving it issued al
order to field officers of my brigade, 70 meet at
Palestine on the 9th day OF February last, for
the purpose of carrying into effect your order for
the formation Of new brigade on, of the End
brigade, I'd division, and such new regiments as
the public good might require; but owing to the
unusual high waters, it was impossible for me
and the other officers to meet at the time appoint
