VILLAGE LIBRARY.

We learn from the "No,ice" posted up, that the
Annual Meeting of our Village Library Association
is to be holden at the Library Room, on "Wednesday
evening at O'Clock, the fourth of Oct next This
institution has been in existence about year The
number of volumes in the Library besides pamph-
lets, &c, exceeds seven hundred Many of them
are donations from individuals interested in the sue
cess of The enterprise. We think a very judicous
selection has been made by the Committee in the
books procured. There are many works of sterling
value. We believe there are about one hundred
and twenty subscribers to this Library The shares
were put low, only two dollars each, that all, who
wish, may avail themselves of the benefits Of the
Library We should think that, not only every
family in the village, but every young man and
young woman ALSO would become members Of this
Association for TO have access TO good Library is
a great privilege. 1t is hoped that all the members
of this Association feel interest enough in the pros
perity of the Institution To attend the meeting
erred TO- II is presumed that measures will then
be taken 10 increase the Library, aud thus to rem
der il more valuable TO the subscribers, and TO ai-
ford additional inducements TO others to become
Members of the Association.

In every part of our country, bu, more especially
in the Southern and Western portion, crime stalks
abroad with giant steps Duels, ussassina,ions,
murders, robberes, thefts, deialcaions forgeries,

our population. There seems to be very general
feeling that men are not Trustworthy that even
those, who make great professions Of sanctity, are
to be watched with keen and suspicious eye. We
cannot partake 10 the full in this general feeling.
We are aware that crimes numerous and many
men are dishonest and hypocrtical. Yet we be.
lieve that the great proportion of society is yet
sound to the hearts core The scum appears on
the top. Those who have the most merit usually
make the least noise and show. While the papers

LOOKING ALoFT-Some years ago DIR.
Goldman of Philadelphia, (now deceased, J
related that in voyage to sea in early life,
he had seen lad who had just begun to be
sailor, going out to some projecting part
of the rigging. His arms were supported
by spar, and he was looking below him
for rope which ran across, on which his
feet should be. The rope flew from side to
side, and it was evident that the poor fellow
was becoming dizzy, and in danger of fall
ing when the mate shouted to him with all
his force, "LOOk aioft! yOu sneaking huber!
By thus turning his eyes from the danger,
the dizziness was prevented, and he found
his footing. And this incident, the Doctor
said often required to his mind in after life,
when his troubles grew heavy upon him,
aud hardly could find ground whereupon to
tread. AT such a time he heard the mate
shout in his ears, and turned his eyes "aloft"
to the prize upon which he had fastened his
hopes We cannot part with this beautiful
illustration, without asking each of our read
ers to apply it to a still nobler purpose to
steady them in all the tempests of adversely,
by looking towards that life in which there
is rest and peace evermore-an when our
flesh and heart shall fail us, and we can find
no support under our feet, to seek it by
"looking aloft' to Him, "who is the strength
of our hearts, and our portion forever.

The Temperance lecture by Mr. Cough, on Sat

gratified, and many pledges were taken 1t was
the first time MIR Cough has lectured in this city,
and we are happy TO state that he will speak at Rox-

evenings IN this city. Mr. Cough is an

Release Of the Stare at Aibdny.-The
decision in the case of the woman brought
before the authorities at Albany, is thus no
tced by the Evening Journal, at Qhe de-
cision) at length arrived, directing the Sher-
if to inform the slave that she was at liberty
to return to her master or remain at the
North-in fact, that she was free She
chose not TO return, and left the jail escort
ed by host of citizens who cheered her and
her escort most enthusiastically. We I'M
derstand that the ground upon which the
Judge came TO this decision was, that as her
master had brought her to this State, she
could not be considered under the Constitu-
ton as fugitive from another State, and
that in consequence under our own State
law, she was free. Had she escaped from
another State and been arrested in this, a
contrary decision would have been the re-
suit. This question and the grounds upon
which it is based are unquestionably correct.
If Southern gentlemen bring their slaves to
New York, they must do so at their own
risk. BY our laws they are FREE as soon
as they reach New York soil So will our
courts, juries, and last. though not least, our
people, uniformly decide"

Herald Of Saturday week gives an account
of the suicide of Mr. James Harness, grocer,
of Ohio city, by cutting his throat, on FRI
day last The Herald says he placed his
umbrella against tree, and with his knife
cut away the hair back of his right ear and
whiskers under the right side of his chin
Moving from this spot some fifteen feet, he
appears TO have taken off his coat and collar,
aud, bending forward. so that the blood could
not fall upon his clothing in 'front.' he pulled
down the binding of his shirt with his right
hand, and inflicted four wounds in his neck
with small knife blade, some of them deep
and ghasty. This position appeared to
have been maintained until the murderer
fell backwards, dead The knife fell from
and lay near the hand that had used it so
fatally, otherwise not a movement Of limb
or muscle after falling was indicated. Mr..
Harness was 33 years of age, in comfortable
circumstances, and had wife and also four

Daring Murder.-A bold and daring
murder was committed at Rochester, about
fifteen miles above this town, on Tuesday
the 10Th inst. In remote part of the town,
near the line of Pennington, woman by
the name of Phebe Hanson, was shot in
her own house at MONDAY Miss Hanson
was maiden lady, somewhat advanced in
years, and with her brother, also unmarried
occupied the house. About noon, neigh
Dor by the name of Page, living u few rods
distant, heard the report of a gun at the
house of Mr.. Hanson, and thinking it some
what extraordinary, proceeded Immediately
to the house. Before he arrived there he
saw three men advancing towards the house
in an opposite direction, with guns upon
their shoulders, and who reached the house
and entered it few minutes before him
When he arrived, he found them seated in
the kitchen. On inquiring for Miss Hanson,
he was told that she was in the front entry
asleep; they stating that they had been out
a cunning, and had called TO obtain some
cider
Mr.. Page proceeded directly TO the entry,
where he found Miss Hanson, bleeding pro-
fusey, and dead He Immediately exclaimed
to the men that she was dead, supposng at
the time she might have fallen down stairs
They expressed some surprise at the an
nouncement, but left the house Immediately
and proceeded into the woods. The alarm
was given, and they were arrested. Two of
them, who are brothers, of the name of
Howard, were taken in this town on
Wednesday morning, just as they were
about entering the cars at the depot for Bos-
ton. They belong in the vicinity of the
murder, and were taken to Rochester for
examination.
The object in perpetrating the crime is
to have been plumber, as it was
known that the Hansons we're in the habit
of keeping a considerable sum of money in
their house. But little money, however,
was obtained, as the trunk which contained
the principal part of it was either overlooked,
or the villains had not time TO secure it
Mr.. Henson was absent at the time, at Great
Falls
p. S. The examination Of the Howards
resulted in their committal to Jail in this
town last evening. One Of them confesses
the murder
