The Day of Judgment.

Parson Miller, the great Millennium
preacher, says
Il understand the judgment day
will be a thousand years long. The
righteous are raised and Judged In
the commencement of the day, and
the wicked in the end of the day. |
believe that the saints will be raised
and Judged about the year 1843.-
According to Moses prophecy, Levitt
26, ,Ezek. 80, Daniel 2, 7, to 12
chapters; Hosea 5, Ia; Rev, the
whole book; many otherprophets have
spoken Of these things. Time will
soon tell if | am right, and soon he
that is righteous will be righteous
still, and he that is filthy will be fill
thy still. Edo solemnly entreat man
kind to make their peace with God;
be ready for these things. The end
of all things is at hand doazk my
brethren in the gospel ministry, to
consider we'll what they say before
they oppose these things Say not
in your hearts my Lord delayeth His
coming Let all DO as they would
wish they had, if it does come, and
none will say they have not done
right, fit does not come. [ believe
it will come; and if it, should not
come, then I will wait and look until
it does come. Yet I must pray,
Come, Lord Jesus, come quickly"

The Case of Mr.. Reeside.

Our readers will have noticed in our last
statement that Mr.. Reeside, (the Land Admi-
RAIL- had obtained verdict against the United
States for the round sum of $lS8.496, being
the balance found due on long series of inll-
cate dealings between him and the General
Post Office.
The statement of this fact is a most pungenl
commentary on the character and financial
management Of the General Post Office under
the two last Administrations. MIR. Reeside
was favorite and very heavy contractor for
the transportation of the Mails, and in time be-
came ali Agent of the Department in The nego-
tiaton of loans, extensions, &c.,--one Of the
several brokers that the wretched msmanage-
meni, prodigality and incapability Of the POST
master General rendered necessary. Accor-
dinghy, he borrowed and lent, and Skinned,
and procured shayes, dntil in the state of chaos
in which the Government accounts were kept,
there was no telling which party was in debl
10 the other. Mr.. Kendall left on the books, as
part of the aSSeStS Of the Department, claim
against Mr.. Reesde of some $32 600 Mr.
Granger attempted TO realized this snug sum !;
when 10 he was met by counter-claim, for
over 100000! As there was no coming al
the matter amicably, Mr.. Granger sued for the
Governments demand, and the case has been
before the T. S. District Court and Jury for the
last three weeks The result is verdict for
Reeside Of over One Hundred and Eighty-esght
Thousand Debtors which Tire Department. must
pay !; and after all, it is said Mr.. Reside will
be heavy loser by the business he did for the
Government Similar 10 this was he verdict
in the case Of the u. States uS. Samuel l.. Gou-
verneur, former Postmaster in this City
These debts and thousands like them the pre-
ent Administration are obliged 10 pay; where

Effects of Free Trade among Shoe.
makers.

A Lynn Shoemaker has been showing
through The columns of the Boston Atlas, the
eject OF free trade on shoemakers. The facts
stated by him are important TO be remembered
by the trade. Here in the west, we know that
our shoemakers have hard work to compete in
prices with the boots and shoes of Lynn and
other places in the east. The latter have near
ly driven the former out of market. The Lynn
Shoemaker says that they are to be entirely
broken up and driven from the field, when the
present duty is reduced 20 per cent that as
the duties now are. they are nearly ruined
The French boots and shoes, which are we'll
and fashionabIy made, and last long, are now
imported and sold al prices less than the Lynn
folks can sell. The boots which sell in this
country at 81 so per pair can be imported and
sold at 81 90, duties and charges added. The
importation Of these boots and shoes last year
numbered 1882 pair of ladies' shoes, being
an increase Of over 400 per cent in eight years :
and of genllemen's boots, $40 pair, being an
increase of sixteen hundred per cent in eight
years. This is great increase. If, under the
present duties, the increase and effect has been
as stated, what will be the effect on eastern or
western shoemaker, under reduced duty, or
under the operation of free trade ? Can shoe
makers prosper The Lynn Shoemaker thus
speaks as to the effect on himself and others
there "For myself, shall say with lawyers
'noli contendere,' and shall pull up stakes here
in Lynn, and emigrate westward into Middle
sex county, where own very pretty farm on
which can live comfortably and not run any
risk of losing the earnings of twelve years Ia
bor."

Death of Mrs. Judge Mclean.

We regret, says the Cincinnati Ga
zette of the 18th ''to state the death
of Mrs. Rebecca Mclean, wife of
Judge Mclean, ofthe Supreme Court.
She died at Louisville on last Mon
day, and was inferred in this city on
Wednesday. Her life was a beautl1
full example of christion piety, and
she passed from earth at peace with
the world and her God. For thirty
years she has been a member OF the

1t has been stated that the insurgent slaves
on board the Creole confessed that they were
incired to to The act by Baptist preacher at
Richmond named Bourne. The Richmond pa
pers say tha, there is no Baptist preacher of
that name either in Richmond, Norfolk, or else
where in Eastern Virginia. The Compiler
says that the slave property was all insured,
but the Companies have refused 10 pay on the
ground that they did not insure against mutiny

The Harllod Times gives glowing exhibit
OF the tobacco statistics in the iown of Wind
sor, Conn. Col. Phelps of Warehouse Point,
cultivated fifty acres of tobacco the past year,
and raised al least that number of tons, which
at 10 cents pound amounts, says the Times,
TO $4,000. Several Of the towns in The neigh
borhood Of Windsor cultivate tobacco TO very
considerable extent, many of the farmers plant
ing from one to three acres, and making profit
able crops. The Hartford paper wishes 10
know "what Virginia will say 20 ths?" She
will undoubtedly consider it unconstitutional

The following recipe for preserving Hams
was handed US by friend who has practced
the method for several years, and he assures
us there is "Ro mistake" in it, as hams cured
and preserved in this manner will keep perfect
ly sweet, and free from bugs and worms, for
two years, if occasionally washed with the pep
per tca.--JerScyma7.
TO every 100 pounds OF Ham, take one
pound of salt peire, and hafa pint of moasses
make pickle strong enough 10 bear an egg
with which mix the above ingredients. Lay
your hams down in clean cask and pour the
mixture over them so that it covers ihem--put
a weight upon the meat and see thai the pickle
covers it. Let it lay in pickle for six weeks,
then hang up and smoke-when smoked to
your liking, take them down and wash them
with a tea made Of the garden pepper, and no
fly or bug will disturb them.
