self You are no sucking to be danded in the
lap Of motherly affection, and have your cheek
tlckled. You are no weakl!ng, lacking common
sense, and therefore needing special provision

good talents you say, with great talents Isay and
all you need IS Development in the right direction
Let your fathers property take care Of itself
Let the dead bury the dead" Go thou and
work.
Work for some bread, be it eper 10 sioply,
Cherish some flower, be il ever SO lowiy;
LabLr, for labor is noble and holy,
And lot your great deeds be your prayer to
your God.
The gospel of work is the gospel for you. Hi,h.
erto, yours has been the gospel Of lazlness and
frivolity. Life has been to You series Of follies
round OF senselcss designations. Till you get
back health, you can pursue no severe intelectu.

Where winds perhaps your woods may shake,
Bat clustering care could never tempest make,
Nor murmurs near come nigh yOu
Saving o! fountains that glide by YOU"
And when life begins to glow more exhilarat-
ingly and hopefully then some way will be open
ed for you. For the hour that needed soul to

TIE ANTI-SLAvERY BUGLE.
To WhOI To Who'll

The following. from Southwestern news
'aper, is the n ost ingenious newspaper dun tha
'as ever fallen under our notice:
Twas on a cold autumnal night,
A dismal ono to view;
Dark clouds obscured fair Venus light,
And NOT a star appeared in sight,
As the thick forest through,
Muggins, as usual, blue,
Beat homcward, lacking left and right;
When all at once he brought up right
Against an old dead yew;
At which he rounded TO-
And 'squaring off, as IL to 6ght,
Said, with an oath shan't indite,
- - Internal scoundrel, you
Lisht--an' I'll lick you black or white =
Just then above him flew
An owl, which on a branch did light
A few feet DER the boozy wight,
And then commenced, "Tu whoo--
Tu whoo-tu whoo-tu whoo %
Quoth Muggins, Don't you think to fright
A fellow of my weight and hight
With your Ter whoo-ter whoo,
You cursed bugahoo!
An IT youie pccl.ehub, it's quito
On necessary you should HIGHT
For Muggins ain't your due;
For money matters are all right,
The Frinter's paid up, honor 6rightg'
Thercat the owl Withdrew;
And Muggns mizzled too.
But there are other chaps who might
Be caught out late some dismal night,
Who hau'nt paid ,ohafs due
They know-tO irho to tohol

The Defeat,
From the London Leader.

From the London Leader.
The struggles Ger, and once again
Foul wrong has tramplcd on the right;
Yet, sadly they misjudge the fight
Who think that We have fought in vain.
'Tis true, no wcll-fought field VIC boast;
lis true, we wear no laurel -hough;
But >; is rot true (though failing now,)
In losing this, that all is lost.
Think not that martyrs die in vain;
Think not that truth so soon will fail
We only bow bcloic the gale,
We only break to form again.
These nrc but flashes which forcrun,
As hcralds of tho tcmpcst's power,
And serve to light the clouds that lower,
And show the storm has not begun.
There groweth up mighty WILL
And time will only give it force;
Though somewhat swcrving in its course,
1t tcndcth to an object still;
And toiling upward TO the place,
Where shines the everlasting morn,-
Not fearing hate nor needing scorn,
The vanguard OF a wavcring race.
Though vengeance was the battlc-cry,
And fell revenge first drew the sword;
More firm in act, more true in word,
We seek a noblcr victory.
And all the failures in the past
But make the future more secure;
And bygone suffcrings ensure
The triumph Of our cause at last.
Secure in truth VIC wait the day
As watchers wait the morning light;
For time will only strengthen right,
The false alone need dread delay.

Panther Shot.

The well-known hunter, Mr.. Charles Par
meter, of this town, who has been out in
the woods the last two months dcer-huniing,
killed n few days since in the town of Bel
mont, IN Franklin county, n large Panther
or Cutamount, measuring nine feet in ex-
treme length, and weighing 237 pounds.--
MIR. Parmeter came upon the truck while
hunting, aud the next day, with dog, stnrt-
ed with the discrimination to hunt him up
After short distance lie struck the trail and
soon came to where, with single hound, he
had killed aud split entirely open huge
buck, apparently carried the same about 20
rods and partly buried the carcass.
Following in pursuit, MIR. r. soou cume
to n mountain ridge with huge shelving
rocks, in II chasm under onc of which lac
found the Pamther's den. His dog, with
hair erect and exhibiting extreme fear, refiis.
ed To enter, when Mr.. p, tying rope around
the dogs neck, entered iinlself dragging Iii.
! dog after him. The Panther fled by another
entrance and took to very tall spruce tree
near by. Mr.. p. now climbed the ledge o
rocks over head and thus found himself on
a level with the tree top and distant about
fifty feet from the same. Tie Panther wa,
almost hid in the dense top, but catching d
glimpse of him he fired in quick succession
TWO DalIs lntO MS noHy. nc Paniher llad
now placed himself with his eye fixed OF
MIR. p, in the attitude of sprneing, when
MIR. r., having quickly reloaded both barrel;
of his gun, fired one into the back of Iii,
neck, aud the other through his body, the
fourth shot brought him to the ground. The
dog having now regained courage, rushed il
upon him, but one bite OF the dying Panih
or sent him back howling with pnin, wher
sl
ran some 20 rods and fell dead. Mr.. r., tC
make sure, put two additional balls into hin
aud then veniured to approach him. MIR. =
intends to bring him down in few days ant

note was disenIboweled from venerable
gander lllnt met with a purchaser in our

patience preparatory TO the work of con-
sumption :-"This old gentleman has been

months aud ten days. His eyesight iailed or
you would not have been so lucky as to yet
him. Ills old wife niourns his absence,

sARTAIN'S MAG AZINE.
OFFER EXTRAORDINARY!

The high position which SARTAiS's MAG
AzINE has assumed in regard to its literary
character, has, we believe, never bPeu qiics-
toned. No American, and no European
mngaZine has ever arrayed in its support II
more accomplished corps OF contributors
Minds of the highest order have, from the
first, been employed To write for it. With
view, however, TO draw forth, for the Use of
their readers, articles of still greater value,
the propIietors have determined, in addition
To tie present outlay Tor literary cOntribu-
tions, to offer the sum OF
ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS
roR TEN PRIZE ARTICLES;
To he published monthly till the series is
completed. This offer is entirely different
from the usual schemes bearing the same
naine. Those schemes generally propose an
apparently high price for few stories, with
out putting any limit upon The length, and
cluiming us grutuiIous all Iilat do not gain a
prize. Thus they olteu, under the appeal-
"nce OF liheriiliIy, ure only lotteries to- secure
large amount ut matter at u small price,
Thus, also, their proprietors ill out their
periodicals from months tn month with stories
OF nterimnIable length, The anibor WHO will
offer the longest story, being pretty sura 10
gain the prize. In our plan, on the contra
article being accepted which exceeds very
moderate length. We want the BEST AR
iicles, not the longest. Moreover, all Me
pieces ,chich do NOT gain prize are 10 be re-
turned TO the authors, unless otherwise nego-
tiated Tor ln other words, the publishers
offer TO pay for each of these special articles
the sum of ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS.
Their Object is 10 secure, besides their
usual variety aud excellence of matter, u
cries of monthly articles entirely superior
to any thing heretofore published in the
magazines. They have determined To place
their magazine, in respect to its literary
character, beyond The reach OF competilion
The pieces offered Ia cOrnpoltion must
he presented by the first OF April, ISL
They may he tales, essays, or articles of
miscellaneous character, according To tie
taste or Judgment ct the writers, but mlst
bc on subjects of general interest, must be
of character suited tn interest the great
mass of readers, must contain something
striking and likely to arrest attention, mud
must, moreover, he OF moderate length
say about sir or eight magazine pageS.
In selecting from the articles Offered the
proprietors will he governed by the decision
OF committee of competent and disinter-
csted Judges, whose names will he ANNOUNCE
cd in the March number of the Muguzibc.-
The publication of the series will he com
menccd Immediately nftcr he decision of
the committee, aud each article will he paid
for the month upon which il is published.
nFAll contributions intended as prize
articles must he nurked accordingly, with
the name OF the author in sealed envelope,
which will not he opened ill the award is
deterniined,) and must he addressed, post
paid, TO JOHN SARTAiN g. Co.
