Wig Promises. The shade Of night
had gathered thickly round. Dark masses
of clouds hung porteutously over the earth,
the winds whistled mourn(ully through the
trees, Sad the vivid flashes OF lightning ev-
err and anon played over the horizon, while
the deep toned thunder in muttering ac-
cents proclaimed the fearful tempest's near
approach; and as, the big drops Of rain be-
gan slowly to desce nd, with look and man
ner not to be mistaken The pigs ran through
the streets squcaling "t'co dollars day and
roast beef"
Mr.. Marshall is lccturing in New York
on the subject of Temperance with great,
success. The crowd on the 18th at the

TO hear Mr.. NJ, that he was unable TO ad-
dress the meeting and an adjournment be-
came necessary. Tickets were issued on
the occasion of Mr. Ms. promised address
at the same place on the 10th.

has absorbed, and afterwards sent up a
spou, with great velocity into the fourth
story, where it is dried until fit for use.
The wool thus manufactured is sent to

spun, ana finally made into satinet The

LUX IS were driven back in repeated assaults
nni the little fortress was every whore sur

ten. at last despairing of taking the place
by assault, ordered it be undermined. AS
the workmen advanced, they propped the
foundation with beams Of wood, and when
the execution was complete, these wooden
supports were consumed by fire; the huge
tower then fell with tremendous crash,
and buried the brave templarS in It's ruins.
The sultan set frc to the town in four pla-
ces, and the last strong hold Of the christian
power in Palestine was speedily reduced to
a smoking solitude. \ few years back the
ruins of the Christian city Of Arcc, were
worthy the attention Of the curious. You
might still trace the remains Of several
churches, and the quarter occupied by the
Knights Templars continues to present
many interesting memorials Of that proud
and powerful order.

A GENERAL CHICK UP.n

On last Monday we had a general kick
up 10 our little village although we be-
Iieve it terminated without the loss OF an
"eye" or Gear" Court being in session,
Judge Howry, (rue to the dignity and
honor of his station,) ordered the Sheriff
to bring, instanter before his Honor, all
who were engaged in the real im-Town-
knock down-don't-care-a.d-n fracas!-
For such il seemed to be. The Sheriff;
when arrived at the spot, found IT impossi.
BILE to quell the noise. He summoned
several 10 lay hold, that be might obey
the decree Of the Court, and have them at
the bar of justice, to be disposed of in the
only way that the Judge might think pro.
per. Being brought by force before the
Court, one fellow was fined fifty dollars
and Imprisoned till Saturday night; while
another was fined one hundred dollars and
imprisoned during the term Of our Court.
This will be lesson TO others, who have
generally been in the habit of disturbing
the sitting of Civil Courts Of Justice, and
resisting the process Of its officers. Judge
Howry does business in the right way
From this out, we may expect peace and
civliity to reign Supreme within the bounds
of our incorporated limits. Already, we
have seen The good effects Of Judge How
ry's work. God grant that we might have
him here all the while; his medicine has
proved panacea to the rowdies and evil
doors. [Southern Pioneer.

NOTES OF THE CENSUS.

We find the following interesting calcu.
latIons and notes on the recent census of
the United States, in late Cincinnati
paper. 1t is stated that there occurs.
between Is and 25, one death IN 2Il; be-
tween IS and IS, one death ia 43; be-
tween 30 and Is; one death in IS; be-
tween ID and So, one death in 81; be-
tween So and 65, one death in "a:
between IS and IS, one death in nineteen
between rs and So, one death in lI2:
between ninety five and los, one death in
l16.
The above shows less proportion Of
deaths between Is and IS, in proportion
to those between S and Is than the bills
Of mortality generally show.
From the age IS, the proportional mum.
Der OF deaths continually increase, until
the age Of 100 but lew remain. The last
census shows $50 persons above the ape
Of 100. Notwithstanding the great mum.
Der OF those who die young, ye, more than
two hundred thousand white persons in
The United States are past the age of sew
enty.
The laws of Life and Mortality be-
tween the sexes are very remarkable.
They may be stated thus:
]. 40 the present condition of the white
population of the United States, the num-
Der of females born per annum are about
Twelve thousand less thanthe males. This
determines of itself that Poligamy is no! a
natural condition OF man land that the laws
of nature and religion are the same, that
one man shall be the husband Of one wo-
man.
2. AT twenty years ofage the females
exceed the males. This proves that be-
tween, birth and twenty, the mortality
among the boys is much greater than a
mong The girls.
3. From twenty to forty the men again
much exceed the women, which shows
this is the period Of greatest mortality
among women.
A. From forty to seventy, the difference
rapidly diminishes, the females, as in the
early part Of life gaining on the males
This shows that tins is the period of
greatest danger and exposure TO men, the
least 10 women.
5. From seventy EDWARDS, the women
outnumber the men. This shows concIu.
sively that relatively speaking in compar-
ison with men the healthiest period offe-
male life is the close Of it. Absolutely,
however, no period 10 either sex is heal
thy as that of youth, The blooming period
OF boy hood and girlhood.
The above deductions of statistical la
bles correspond with every day Observa-
lions on human life.
Womeo are exposed to peculiar hazards
in the middle Of life; but, in the long run
ar the largest part Of exposure, danger
and risk, 10 civilized nations, falls upon
men in actice periods of life.
Thus endsth our first page.
