How to Take a Paper.

Be sure to pay in advance and thus have
the privilege of reading YOUR OWN paper
instead of the PUBLISHERS. If you change
your residence, inform the publishers i'm
mediately, stating your NAME, the town you
move FROM, and the town you move TO-
Dun CoURsE.-We continue to send pa
pers to subscribers, after the time for which
they first subscribed has expired, UNLESS
OTHERWISE ORDERED. We never stop pa
per until all arrearages are paid up, or we
are assured that subscriber is worthless
1t is useless, therefore, for man OF
"means," to order his paper stopped while
he is owing any thing for it.
The LAW OF NEWSPAPERS. IL. Subscri-
bers who do not give express notice to the
contrary, are considered as wishing to con-
tinue their subscriptions.
2. Ifsubscribers order the discontinuance
of their papers, the publisher may continue
to send them until all arrearages are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their papers from the Office to which
they are directed, they are held responsible
till they have settled the bill and ordered
the paper discontinued.
a. Ii subscribers remove to other places
without informing the publishers, and the
paper is sent to the former direction, they
are held responsible.
5. The Courts have decided that refusing
to take paper from the Office, or removing
and leaving it uncalled for, is ''prima facie'
evidence OF intentional fraud
8. Any person taking one number of a
paper from the office, or any post Office
sent to his address; although he did not
subscribe, by that act makes himself SUBJ
scriber.

Delicacy.

Some writer has said OF American
women that 'they possess at once more
real dellcacy and more false delicacy than
the females of any other country" and,
although the dictum seems to imply that
the two kinds may exist in the same
person, we incline to think he is right.
The genuine article is happily abundant,
while, of the false, there is certainly
something more than enough. This
spurious delicacy is for the most part.

Keep out OF Debt.

debt the father? VIVA, les, what mean
ness, what inyasions of self-respect, what
cares, what double-dealing! How in
due season will il carve the frank open
face into wrinkles--how like a knife i!
will stab the honest heart. And then its
transformation! How it has been known
TO change the goodly face into mask Of
brass; the man callous trickster! A
freedom from debt, and what nourishing
sweetness may be found in water; what
toothsomeness in dry crust; what am
brosial sweetness in hard boiled cggs!--
BE sure O it, he who dimes out of debt,
| though his meal be biscuit and an onion,
dimes in ''the Appollo." And then for
raiment--what warmth in thread bare
coat, if the tailor's receipt be in the
pocket; whatTyrian purple in the waist
coat, the vest not owed for; how glossy
the well worn hat, If it covers not the
aching head oil debtor.
| Next to the home sweets, is the out
| door recreation of free man. The
street door knocker falls no, knell on
the heart; the foot on the stair case, tho
he lives on the third pair, sends no
spasms through his anatomy; at the rap
at his door, he can call forih, "come in"
and his pulse still beats healthfu.ly, his
heart sinks not into his bowels. See
him abroad! How confidently, yet
how pleasantly, he takes the street. how
he saunters; now meeting an acqualnt-
ance, he stands and gossips! But then
this man knows no debt--debt, that casts
drug into the richest mine; that makes
the food of the gods unwholesome, in
digestible; that sprinkles the banquet of
Lucellus with ashes, 500! in the soup Of
an Emperor; debt that, like the moth,
makes valueless furs and velvets, enclo-
sing the wearer in fastening prison,
1.-THE shirt of Nessus was a shirt not paid
fet;) debt, that writes upon frescoed walls
the handritiug of the attorney; that puts
voice of terror in the knocker, that
makes the heart quake at the haunted
fireside; debt, the invisible demon that
walks abroad with man; now quicken
ing his steps, now making him look on
all sides like hunted beast and bring
ing to his face the ashy hue of death,
as the unconscious looks glance upon
him!
Poverty is bitter draught, yet may
sometimes, with advantage be gulphed
down. Though the drinker make wry
faces, there may, after all, be whole
some goodness in the cup. But debt,
however courteously it be offered, is the
cup of a syren, and wine spiced and de-
licious, though it be an eating poison
The man out of debt, though with a flaw
in his erkin, crack in his shoe leather,
and hole in his hat, is still the son of
liberty, free as the singing lark above
him; but the debtor, though clothed in
the utmost bravery, what is he but serf
upon holiday slave TO be reclaimed
at ony instant by his owner, the creditor!
Ny son, if poor, see wine in the run
ming spring, let thy mouth water at last
weeks roll; think threadbare coat the
only wear, and acknowledge white
washed garnet the fittest housing place
for gentleman. Do this and flee debt.
So shall thy heart be at peace, and the
sheriff COMPOUNDED.

What strange power is possessed by
letter! 1t may be the messenger of
peace and happiness, or it may be the
bearer of misery and misfortune; il may
tell the poor man, in want and poverty,
that vast fortune is waiting for him to
claim, or it may tell the rich man, roll
ing in case and luxury, that henceforlh
he is an outcast and beggar; fortitude and
misfortue equally make letters the in
struments to convey their iidings. We
often saunter idle near the Post Office,
and watch the eager recipients open their
letters, while, from the expression which
chase each other over their tell-tale conn
tenances, we can generally gather wheth-
er the news is good or bad. The other
day we were standing near the window,
when bright intellectual looking young
man came hastily up, and inquired for
letters; he received one, and quickly tear
ing il open, began to read, at first disap-
pointment seemed to mock the hopes he
had reared, and the gentle smile which,
a moment before, had played like sun
light upon his features, Disappeared
sterner and darker grew his brow, black
er and blacker was the shade that grew
over his face, while the contracted lip
and heaying chest too plainly told the
mental agony he was enduring. Then
as if ray Of hope lighted up the clouds
of sorrow, he looked happier; gradually
his brow relaxed its sternness, the smile
returned, his frame shook with emotion,
the letter trembled as if it would fall
from his hands, and in another moment
he burst into long, loud, happy laugh,
and walked away with a light and mer-
ny step. 1t did us good to hear the man
laugh, for we have felt enough of the
worlds misfortdhes to enable us to SYM
pathise with those on whom some dread
full blow falls, crushing the bright visions
which the yisionsgaily held before them.
1t was this little circumstance which led
us to think Of the great influence letters
have upon the fate and destiny of man,
telling him whether hopes are to prove
vain, or happy hours are to come

Poetry.
THE SPRING TIME OF LIFE is PAST,

THE SPRING TIME OF LIFE is PAST
The following lines, from the Louisville
Journal, are above all praise--surpassingl,
The Spring of Life is past,
With all its hopes and fears,
And the autumn time is coming,
With its weight of weary years;
Our joyousness is fading,
Our hearts are dimmed with care,
And youths fresh dreams of gladness,
And. perish darkly there.
While bliss was blooming near us,
In the hearts first burst of spring,
While many hopes could cheer US.
Life seemed a glorious thing;
Like a foam upon the river,
When the breeze goes ripplingo'er,
The hopes have fed forever,
To come to us no more.
It's sad, yet sweet to listen,
AZ thC sui Wlfttto DWELL
And think we hear the music
Our childhood loved SO well;
To gaze out on the even.
And the boundless fields of air,
And we feel again our boyhood wish,
To roam like angels there.
There are many dreams of gladness,
That cling around the past,
And from that tomb of feeling,
Old thoughts come thronging fast;
The forms we loved SO dearly,
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon.
Those bright and gentle maidens,
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too gloriously and too heavenly,
For such world as this;
Whose soft dark eyes seemed swimming
In a sea of liquid light,
And whose locks of gold were streaming
Ger brows SO sunny bright:
Whose smiles were like the sunshine
In the spring time of the year,
Like the changeful CLEANS of April,
They followed every tear;
They have passed, like hope, away,
All their loneliness is fled;
OH many heart is mourning,
That they are with the dead:
Like the brightest birds of Summer,
They have fallen from the stem;
Vel Oh! it is lovely death,
To fade from earth like them,
And yet the thought is saddening,
To muse on such as they,
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away,
That the fair one whom we love,
Like the tendrils of vine,
Grow closely to each loving heart,
Then perish on their shrine.
And we can but think of these,
In the soft and gentle Spring,
When the trees are waving DER us,
And the flowers are blossoming;
For we know that Winters coming,
With his colo and stormy sky,
And the glorious beauty round us,
Is budding but to DIE!
