BANK BILLS.

By the terms of the charter the com.

arc made on the premium notes to the
amount of the losses and contingent exc

THE HOOS SER N ST.

The good citizens Of our sister State, Indiana,
are pretty generally known throughout the West by
singular appeIlative Of Hoosier. The following
rhymes, from young HoosIeroon, conveys a very
graphical picture of Hoosier life on the frontiers
Of Indiana. The picture will also answer for the
" lder parts of Illinois.
Suppose. in riding through The West,
A stranger found "Hoosier's nest -
In other words Buck eye cabin,
Just big enough to hold Queen Nab in:
Its situation low but airy,
Was ont the borders of Prairie:
And fearing lie mir bit be ben GIFTED,
He hailed the house ard then aghled.
The iloos ier met HIM at The door,
Their saluiations soon we're DER;
lie took The strangers horse aside,
And 10 sturdy sapln. tied !;
Then having stripped the saddle of,
lie fed him in sugar trough.
The stranger stopped to enter in,
The entrance closing with pin,
And manifested strong desire,
To seat himself by The log fire,
Where half dozen lloosIeroons.
With mush and milk, tin cups and spoons,
White heads, bare feet and dirty faces,
Seemed much inclined TO keep their places;
But madam anxious to display,
Her rough and nndsputol sway,
Her offspring TO the ladder led,
And coushed the yourgs ers up TO bed.
Invied shortly 10 parlakn,
OF venson, milk and jenny cake,
The stranger made hearty meal,
And glances round The room would steal,
One side was lined with diverse garments,
The other spread with SKINS Of "yarminlS )"
Dried pump kins overhead were snung;
Where venison hams in plenty hung;
Two rifles placed above the door,
Three dogs lay STREET hed upon The floor;
In shorl the domiciI WAS rife,
With specimens OF Hoosier life.
The host who cenlered his affections
On game, and range, and quarter sections,
Discoursed his weary guest for hours.
Till Somnus' over potent powers,
OF sublunasy cares berell 'em.
No matter W The story ended
