ACCIDENTAL little daughter of Mrs Royal
b. Waldo had her thigh bone broken by
standing near another Child who was swinging
in the common. If the children must adopt this
unnatural and dangerous method of exercise,
we hope that sufficient care will be exercised by
the older children to see that the smaller ones
arc out Of the way when the swings arc in mo-
ton. But the better way is for parents to for
bid the dizzy and dangerous amusement; there
are ways enough for children TO bcguilc their
hours in exercise and sport, without oscillating
between heaven and earth by a hompcn cord.
EDITORS CHANGING, LIKE PREAcHERs-Thc
Editor of the Green Bay Advocate suggests TIE
necessity and propriety of editors changing off
COS once in a while, as clcIgymen do PnIpits.-
He thinks it would vary the tone of some of the
papers, and give character TO others and in
other places the furnishing Subscribers to wing
papers would have an opportunity Of enjoying
the blessed gospel Of dcmocracy; and he winds
up with signing for chance i'll the pal pit of the
Sentinel. Our ambition would be gratifcd if
we could dispense light ana salvation to some

vicinity have long since been converted to free

Resolred, 1st That in the opinion of this

nit to the wrongs and aggression which have
been perpetrated by the Federal Government and
the Northern States, without dshonor and ruin,
and that it is necessary to relieve herself there

the sacrifice in submission.

essential to sovereignty and freedom of the States

Lottery SWindling.

The Bangor Mercury gives an account Of
an investigation in the police court 10 that
city OH the 4ih, of robbery, in connection
with lottery swindling transaction. Mi
chae P. G. Withers, Behuel Washburn, and
| Henry Smith, were arraigned on complaint
of George s. Williams, for robbery. The
defendants, (says the Mercury were the
prOprIetors OF an extensive lottery scheme,
comprising in its tempting array various
styles Of galvanized and silver watches and
other toggery. On Friday night las, said
scheme was drawn at Wilher's shop, five
times, but did not come out right On the
sixth drawing, ticket No. 70 drew the first
prize of q gold watch said to be worth S55.
and the complainant holding the same, re-
ceived it from Withers, the master of cere-
monies. The next day, Withers went to
Williams, the complainant, and invited him
to come up 10 his shop as there was some
dispute about the Commences of his ticket, it
being discovered that there was another
ticket No. 20, out. Williams was foolish
enough to attend at the place appointed,
where the defendants were. and when there,
the doors were fastened and he was told he
must give up the watch. Wnshburn de-
cared he owned half of the ticket with com.
plainani, and said he would have satisfaction,
and proceeded to choke and pull him about
the Others joining in the work of terrifying
him until, as compromise, complainant
said he would give up the watch 10 WASH
burn for twenty dollars Washburn acced-
ed most cordially and put the money into
Wither's hands. into which complainant
also committed his witch. But the modera-
tor, Wahers, handed the watch to Wash
burn. and putting the money into his own
pocket, said he would make il right with
comp Isnt at a more leisure time.
The evidence in the case indicated the
swindIing nature of the whole scheme, and
the vIlsiny Of the respondents, who were
held TO answer at the next District Court for
