From the Galena Ullinois) Advertiser.

Our citizens are many Of them now feeling
the consequence Of the Government orders
relative to notes upon the U. s. Bank. 1t is
known that large amount Of Branch notes
is in circulation. These notes, although ev-
cry whit as good as notes on the mother
Bank, the Land Offices have been ordered
not to receive. The consequence is, that
out of our abundant and sound circulating
currency, citizens experience great difficulty
mother Bank, or Specie, which alone are re-
ceivable for lands at this office. Another
difficulty Of no small consequence presents
itself to our notice. We were told a few
days since, that bank notes which are receiv-
able at the Land Office at Mineral Point

RIors.-The city of Washington was
very much disturbed last week by riot
GUS assemblages-several small build
ings were pulled down in which free
blacks resided, who had been instrument
tai in circulating the incendiary pamph !
lets. The mayor, attended by several
justices, remained near the scene of riot
during the night, ready to exert the civ
il authority before calling in the aid of
the military. All was quiet at the last
accounts.
A serious riot has taken place among
the Irishmen on the Chenango canal, a
bout two miles north of Hamilton. The
uproar continued all night, the parties
firing guns and pistols at each other
The militia were called out, and the
country was in state Of alarm for many
miles round. Several were severely
wounded.
Riot at BuGalo.-An extensive and
brutal riot occurred at Buffalo last Sun
day week. The rioters were in two par
ties-one about two hundred and fifty in
number, consisting of boatmen, sailors
loaiers, &c. The other party consisted
Of about fifty Irishmen, and were disput-
ing their passage across Erie street ca
nal bridge. Several officers of Justice
instantly repaired to the spot, and at the
imminent hazard of their lives, finally
succeeded in arresting and confining
about thirty of the ringlcaders. An
Irish row was the original cause Of the
disturbance.
RIOT AT NEwBURGH.-Eight persons, sew
en- of whom are Roman Catholics, were COM
mitted to the jail in this village on Tuesday
last, charged with being concerned in riot
in Newburgh, on Sunday afternoon. They
will probably be tried at the Court Of Sessions
to be held in Newburgh in September: the
eighth, we understand, is an American, who
has been tried before justice, and senten-
ced to 30 days imprisonment in the county
JAIL Goshen Democrat.
| RIOT AT LYNN.-The citizens of Lynn
have had visit from Mr.. Thompson, the for
| eign abolitionst ambassador. On the Sec
ond night of his appearance in that ancient
! and peaceable town mob was raised arounC
the house, fire was cried, the bells were rune
and some mischief was done to the house
y but Mr.. ". escaped unhurt.

Book FOR THE SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER.
This is an excellent little work just publish
ed by Joseph Dove, Of the city Of Boston.
1t is dedicated to Sunday School Teachers,
and being written in spirit of kindness, es-
chewing every thing ofa controversial ma
ture, and intoxicating sound lessons in plety
and morality, it will doubtless find favor with
all those who appreciate the Importance OF
Sunday school instruction. In its pages the
qualifications and the duties ofSunday School
Teachers, the obligations which they owe to
one another, and the kind Of instruction ap-
propriate to the school, are separately discus
sed. The following extract will serve as a
specimen of the style oft the work:
"Sunday Schools lessen the crimes which
disturb the peace of society. 1t is to be re-
collected that the teaching communicated by
you is strictly moral and religious. How
far mere general knowledge, independently
of revelation, would operate in improving the
general character ofa people, we cannot de-
termine with certainty; but, that the commu-
nication of religious knowledge has incalcu-
liable benefits, no one can disprove, be his
creed what il may. Who can estimate the
advantages thus conferred upon the poor and
Ignorant? Who can tell how far even one
individuals benevolent exertions shall be a
check to excessive passions, or ungoverned
NAL ignity, or profanity and falsehood' AL
though the general aspect Of society, in its
lowest classes appears as yet unchanged, and
the wintry face of its morality at present
seems to throw at great distance the har-
vest Of your zeal, still let it be stimulus to
your activity, to be assured that you are pour
ing the principle of fertility through thou
Sand channels, and that already you see here
ana there vernal flower lifting its head a
midst barrenness and storms, the welcome
harbinger of happier season. In future
time, masters will bless your labors for faith
! full servants, wives will pour out their graft
tude for affectionate husbands, and children,
as they gather round the knees of a kind and
tender father, well clad, well fed, well taught
turn to you with the thankful smiles of their
bliss, as their benefactors who made their pa
rents what they are. You will be admitted
to be the best friends of the community, and
the most efficient philanthropis.s Of the poor
Your efforts are directed to prevent crimes
instead Of Furnishing them, and to prevent
misery, instead of relieving it. Go on then
with renewed strength, since the tendency
Of your labors is to strengthen the founda-
tions, and adorn the fabric of society"

PARDON OF De Soro.--The reprieve OF
sixty days, granted to this individual, expir-
ed yesterday at i2 o'clock. A large con-
course of people assembled around the pur-
licus of the prison yesterday morning, anx.
iously waiting the final decree. AT 10 o.
clock the doors of the prisoners cell were
thrown open, and the Marshal, the Spanish
Consul, together with many other individuals
entered when full and free pardon from
the President was read to the prisoner,
which was received with every mark of graf
itude. Sonora De Soto, the wife of De Soto,
was present, and appeared to be much affect
ed during the communication of the glad IT,
dngs. He was detained by his counsel q
short time for payment for his services, but
on finding bail was discharged.
The reprieve Of Ruiz will expire on the
Ilth of September. He continues apparent

ABDUCTION OF A CHILp.-We learn from
the Mobile Advertise, that great excitement
has been created in that city, by the abduc-
ton of child of DR.. Gesnard. He was seiz-
ed and carried off by the Dr's own brother,
who refused to deliver him up, unless he was
paid the sum of $4,000. A negotiation
was carried on through the medium of anoth-
er brother, who was supposed to be implica-
ted in the transaction, and the Doctor was a
bout complying with the demand, when the
people arose in their might, seized the nego-
GATOR, conveyed him to place Of confine-
ment, and finally by threats and promises,
prevailed on him to confess that he knew
where was secreted his brother and the child,
and undertake to restore the child to his
much afflicted parents. Accordingly at night
fall steamboat was chartered, and the party
with the guide proceeded up the river for the
place designated, about Is or 20 miles off,
and the next morning returned with the sto-
len child IN safety, to the great joy of the pa
rents. The brothers were permitted to 60 at
large, on condition of their leaving the CO un-
try never to return.

DEFERRED ARTICLES.

ARRIVAL OF CAPT. BACK.-On Thursday
of last week, Capt. Back, who left Montreal
in the Spring of 1888, for the coast of the
Polar Sea, in search Of Capt. Ross and his
companions, arrived on his return, in good
health and spirits, at Lachine. One of the
volunteers who accompanied him from Mont
real. has returned with him. DIR. King and
the rest of the party were left at Fort Reli-
ance, all well, and are to return to Eng
land by way of Hudson's Bay. The eX-
pedtion met with no accident, and lost no
one of its members, except one of the vol
'unteer artilcrymen, who strayed from his
path and was lost, and his lfeless body was
afterwards found. Captain Back has made
some valuable geographical discoveries, hav-
ing traced nearly the whole course of Great
Fish River, from its entrance into the Polar
Sea to it's source east of the Great Slave
Lake. He received the intelligence of the
safe return of Capt. Ross, on the 25th of
April, 1884, at his winter quarters, at the
eastern extremity ofthe Great Slave Lake.
The greatest degree of cold which he en-
countered was 76 degrees below zero

For thy heart is young and wild.

And the world begins TO steal

Then lis value thou wilt feel!
To thy chamber, still and lone,

When earth's Establishments are gone.
Every grief it will assuage!
Close thy door agains, the din

Only let the radiance in

When thy bruised spirit bends
Meath the weight OF sorrow's chain,
When Of all life's summer friends,
Not one Haiterer shall remain;
Law this unciion to the wound
Or thy smtien, bleeding breast
Here the only balm is found
That can yield the weary rest!

MAN LIKENED TO A STREAM.

By GAMBIA JONES.
A stream came from the mountain side,
A babbling stream, thing Of play,
And it leap'd like child, as the morning smil't
Upon its joyous way.
II was a clear and gentle stream,
II claimed the sunshine as brother,
And the twain did play in childish way,
Like twins Of some young mother.
And now the stream did gather strength,
And now the stream more stately flowed,
And the sunshine's heat was waxing great,
That on its surface glowed.
The sunshine burns upon river,
That once babblng stream did play,
As thing of Thought, with passions wrought,
That river takes its way.
Upon the sun cloud Is lying,
Upon the river the twilight closes,
The night is heing, the day is dying
The river ne'er rePoses,
And whether i, sink in its mother earth,
Or whether it melt in the boundless sea,
Or whether it mount where the clouds have birth
Ii cannot cease to be.
And SO the child Of man comes forth,
And so he 5 seen few brief years,
And so in the gloom Of closing tomb,
He dying disappears!

THE GOOD OLD TIMES.

THE GOOD OLD TIMES.
The merry, merry Autumn winds
Again are sweeping free,
But am sad-for things are not
As once they used to be:
When all the girls wore homesPun gowns,
And shoes with leather strings.
And never thought Of bishop-sieeres,
And such outrageous things.
Old father Time ha mt changed a whit,
Since was five years old,
His Autumn coat is still the same
A crimson mixed with gold;
lie whistles just the same old tuna
That he did years ago,
And he is quite as merry now
As he was then, know.
! used to love to spend day
Among the forest trees.
When chesnuts by the bushel fell,
With every passing breeze;
reached my home at summer time,
With bag and basket full.
And found the mug Of cider there,
For me to "take pull"
And there were pleasant times at night,
In very frosty weather,
When we before the blazing fire,
Were seated all together;
Tie women with their "kni!ting work."
The boys with each book,
The dog asleep upon the hearth,
And puss within the nook.
But notD, l spend my autumn nights
Beside my fire alone;
hear no more the hearty laugh
At jokes in "banter' thrown:
gaze into my Lehsh fire,
And picture old times there,
Then wake, and find the scene Is bu.
A castle in the air.
o, how long for those good times
That once used to know,
When wore 'neckcloths' without starch,
And tied them in bow:
For every thing knew, is changed,
In name, if not in look,
Excepting Time-the Testament,
And Webster's Spelling book

FASHIONABLE HAIR CUTTING.

where gentlemen and ladies' may have their
hair cut in the neatest style and most iashiona-
BILE manner. Here gentlemen can be shaved
early and late, just as suits their time
.ard acith rasors sharp and thin,
Which takes the beard and ieaces the
(skin.
VuNHERE is nothing connected with Il gentle
Il mans dress which makes him appear more
ridiculous, than long beard and bushy head;
therefore he that would look well should have
his hair cut often, yet his looks are not much
improved by having it cut if it is not cut as it
should be. Some cut hair in such a manner as
would lead one to conclude that it had been
gnawed by some animal, or pounded off with
stone. Hair should be cut often and cut we'll
by this means it is improved in color and texture,
makes il take deeper root, and thereby becomes
more firmly fixed in the head and this is the on
ly sure way to prevent it from falling out. The
subscriber has paid particular attention to the cut
ting and culture Of the hair for great length Of
time, which enable him to cut in any form or
fashion which may be required, and in this
branch Of his business he acknowledges no supe-
ror. ANY person that can use pair of shears,
can use them to cut hair, and may cut It in a
fashionable manner too, that is, they may cut it
off of one side Of the head and leave it on the
other, as the fashion may be, which is all that
many, very many know about cutting halr VINO
pretend to cut; but for person to understand
this part of the business as he ought, he must be
mechanic-and have the eye of mechanic =
he must know how the head will look (when it
is finished) before he begins to cut-this the sub
scriber understands

ments made on the ornamental part Of your era

pearance and comfort of both young and old just
