REvrvrNG.-A raftsman who had drank a
little too freely fell from the raft and was
drowning, when his brother pluning into his
relief, seized him by the hair, but the current
was strong, and the brothers strength being
nearly exhausted, he was about relinquishing
his hold, when despairing, the drowning one
raising his head above the water, said, Hang
on Sam Hang on; I'll treat, i swear will"
His words were stimulating, and the brother
at length saved him.

interesting congregation and church.
Ashamed, however, of having their pastor
supported by the Missionary society, they re-
solved to support him themselves. They
have fixed his salary at $4,000 year, pay
able monthly in advance. In addition to the
FIRST months salary, these liberal souls gave

Col. BENToN.-This distinguished states
man is out strongly in speech made in the
Us. Senate, against disunion. Thisrequires
some moral courage, after the resolutions Of
his own States Legislature. But he says
these resolutions do not represent the voice Of
the people. He will be supported by the

position to disunion.

EThey are extremely silly persons who
rail at married life and endeavo- to be witty
at the expense of other people. The fact is
that many of these calumniators are not able
to obtain wives. A mans wife is his best

adviser, and what is important, also, the
cheapest and most reasonable.

countrymen as "p0rt of the hOrdes Of out
Eaavs, that are daily pouring in upon US, rChom
the good citizens Of Europe haze expelled
from their otDn country, after misrepresent-
ing and slandering them otherwise in the
grossest manner, is little more than we are
willing tamely to bear. We are freemen and
will not be thus outraged with impunity.-
We tell these men that the party they thus
stigmatize will compare favorably, Germans
though they are, with any equal number Of
our citizens, no matter where they were born.
Their names need only be mentioned to Sc
cure the endorsement Of this whole communi-
ty, that they are sober, peaceful, orderly, in
dustrious and worthy citizens, whose respec-
liability can hardly be affected by the vulgar
abuse Of DR.. Burns and the Democrat.
The undersigned have had their eyes some
what opened by the treatment of which they
complain, as to the value of those professions
of love and friendship for Germans which
have been SO frequently made in certain quar-
tiers. and they think it fit occasion to warn
their countryinen to look a little deeper into
such professions hereafter. The Wander
burgh Democratknows that for years past the
Germans of this neighborhood have not been
permitted to indulge in any festivity among
themselves without being imposed upon and
abused by Just such lawIess crowd as that
which committed the outrages ofNew Years
Eve. Indeed, SO great has this grievance
grown, that many of the undersigned have
long since ceased to attend the balls and par
ties of their friends for fear Of becoming en-
gagged in Just such difficulties as this which
has now occurred. They knew they would
in all probability have to submit to wrong, o.
resist it with arms in their hands. Both o
which alternatives they preferred to avoid
by foregoing recreation to which they hat
been accustomed. 1t would have become tn,
Democrat much more, to have made an eff
fort to put stop to the evil'than to have act
ed as it has as the apologist and defender @
those who are guilty of it.
In conclusion, we would say, that though
the Germans of this community have so lon,
submitted to be thus outraged by irresponsi
bic persons, they are not prepared to sc
the public prints, and those who control then
recognize and sanction such conduct as RICH
and proper, and they will take pleasure i
showing these men, hereafter that they ar
not to be trampled upon and slandered wit
