HOW TO GROW RICH

One of the best "trick" that we have
heard of for long time is the following.
1t is worth trying. Legerdemain--Or
how to get whole suit of clothes into a
junk bottle.--Every time you feel like
taking a"horn," drop the price of ''nip-
per" into the bottle, and take glass of
pure cold water. Repeat this until the
bottle is full, then dream it and carry the
contents to a good tailor; and within
month you will find yourself encased in a
new suit of clothes without any trouble
or expense to yourself. The same may
be done with hats, boots, sc. We have
known a cart load of wood and barrel
Of flour to be transmogrifed in similar
manner.

OH! NO!

Mr. Bachelor, we do not intend to prejudice
the ladies against you in the least but fear
your own contemplate course may have that
tendency. 1t is laughable to read his COM
munication of this week, and compare it with
his former productions. Heretofore, he has
been showing the advantages of the single
over the married life, and trouble women lead
men into, but now thinks, we are 'uncharita-
hle to cry him down in the estimation of the
ladies' Why old fellow, that is great note
that you should fear the contempt of those
you pretended but short time since to de-
spise. For your own sake, just say no more
upon the question, for every line you pen
causes you to look more and more con,empti-
BILE. If you were not so far gone in gum
sucking, we should not be so charitable with
you as we are, dut we feel for you in your
present smitten condition, and treat you as
your insignlfcance merits.

present campaign, in case such present them.
selves before the necessary number be made
lup. These are to serve during the war
Those enlisting now have more to entice
them than had those who went before.
Section l, Provides for the raising of ten
Regiments; one to be of dragons, and one
to be equipped as voltiguers and foot rifemen,
toebe provided with rocket and mountain
and howizer battery. These receive the same
pay and rations, and are subject to the same
government as other soldiers.
|. Sections 8, a, S, 6 and 8 regulate the mode
of appointing quarternasters, surgeons, chap
lains and majors, also the number, terms of
service and pay.
Section 8 gives to each non commissioned
officer, musician and private, or his heirs, one
hundred and sixty acres of land; and further
provides, that all sales intended to effect the
title to any bounty land executed previous to
the Issue Of the warrant shall be null and
void, and that it shall not be liable for any
debt contracted previous to said issue.
Here are new inducements held out by
government to those that enter the field of
battle in defence of the many happy privi-
leges bequeathed to us by our revolutionary
sires. The Patriotism of the immortal Wash
ing.on and the lamented Jackson has not all
banished, but men like they, with a burning
spirit stand ready to meet the enemy. After
victory Is gained and the trumpet of peace
sounded, the warrior will have home mark
I'D out for himself Those that leave their
homes and friends and take arms in defence
our liberty merit bounty, and our govern
nent in the passage of such bill has done
light. Our country should never be forsaken
lnder any circumstances, but as long as life

ion of her honor and freedom should be

since the Wyandots left, leaving little or no

badly out, has improved more rapidly.
The following is the enumeration:
