ErrEcrs OF INTEMPERANcE.-We learn
from the Richmond Jefferson that "a
Coroner's inquest was held over the dead
tody of man found on the premises of
w. Platt. north of Newport, who came 10
his death by the excessive use of alcoholic
drinks. MIR. Platt, on whose premises
ne was found stated in his evidence that
he had sold him quart of whiskey the
dav before There was nothing about
the person OF the deceased to Indicate his
name or residence. He vas apparently
about so years Of age aud had in his pos
session 81 cents in money and few bot
ties of "John McNees' Liniment." A
small jug containing some whiskey was
found beside him" In. State Sen.
JUDIcloUs.--The wings Of Ohio, by
means of committees and secret circulars
made desperate effort 10 defeat the new
Constitution. Their failure was most
signal and over whelming. Now it is
adopted we presume they will deny their
opposition, and become great and zeal
Gus reformers. They uttered not word
against it in their late State Convention.
In Indiana, we have no doubt but a
large majority of the party are opposed
to the new Constitution. but seeing no
hope of defeating it they silently ace
quiesce and suffer default. Not sim
gle wing paper in the State has dared to
make open opposition. Some contain
communications which they publish
without comment. If they had reii-
able working majority in the State we
should have desperate struggle; as 1T is.
thanks to the progressive democracy, we
shall have no trouble-Ind, Sentinel.
A feld-slave in the South, one day
found in his trap plump rabbit. He
took him out, held him under his arm,
patted him, and began TO speculate on
his qualities:
.'Oh. how fat berry fat.--the latest
eber did see. Let me see how I'll cook
him! ! broil him! No, he SO fat he lose
all de greaes. / fry him! All, yes, lie so
berry fat, he fry hisself. Golly! how fat
he be! No, wont fry him stew himl''
The thought of a savory stew made the
negro forget himself; and in spreading
out the feast in hisSimagin ton his arm
relaxed, when off hoped the rabbit. and
squatting al a goodly distance, he eyed
his la.e owner with cool composure.
The negro knew there was the end of
the stew, and summoning up all his phi
losorhy, he thus addressed the rabbit. at
the same time shaking his fist at him.
"You ong-eared, white whiskered,
red-eyed son OBJ gun, yom.not so berry
id fat after alu''
BACHELORS WoEs.-What painful
thing bachelor is, with his cherries
house and rueful phiz, on bitter cold
night when the earth is covered with a
foot Of snow-When his fire is out, and
shivering dread, he creeps meath the blan-
kets into his bed. How he draws up his
toes, all incosed in yarn hose. and he
Furnishes his nose meath the chilly bed
clothes, that his nose and his toes, still
.ncased in warm hose may not be froze.
Then he puffs and he blows, and afirms
that he knows no mortal on earth ever
suffered such woes, and with abs and
obs. and With limbs froze, to his slum-
Der he goes. In the morning when the
cock crows, and the sun has just rose,
from beneath the bed clothes pops the
bachelor's nose, and as you may suppose,
when you hear the wind blows, and see
the windows all froze. why back meath
the clothes, pops the poor fellows nose,
for fall we'll he knows if from the bed he
rose, to put on his clothes that he'd sure
" be froze.
