SrAMNERISu.-We refer readers to the ad-
vertisement of DR.. Wyckoli, who processes tc
cure almost any case of suffering. The Doctor
appears to have been highly successful in his eff
forts, and as lie will remain but one week in
town, persons who wish to procure his services
should 90 so soon.
GLEAsoS's PIcroaIAL of last week contains
a number ofbcautiful illustrations Among them
are the portraits of Pierce and King, the Presi.

The FAuM JOURNAL heretofore published al
Lancaster, will, hereafter, be published at West
Chester. Mr.. Spangler the editor, expects more
assistance in his editorial labors at ihc latter
place. The selection is no doubt good one and
will enable him to improve that Journal, already
a valuable publication.

ABRAHAM W. HAUSE

Who was tried last week at Danvile,
for counterfeiting, was convicted and SEN
fenced seven years to the pententiary.-
His son Lewis was acquitted, but was bound
over to appear next term on another indict-
ment. The old man is now upwards Of
sixty years OF age, and has long been en-
gagged in this kind OF business. He was
convicted about 90 years ago, in this coun-
ty, on an indictment for altering or making
counterfeit bills, on the Carlisle Bank, and
served a number Of years in the Eastern
Penitenliary, but was pardoned a short
time before the expiration OF bis sentence,
by the Governor, through the continued &
persevering efforts of his wife. He has
considerable family. His daughters, three
! or four of whom we have seen, and who
have since been married, were handsome
and rather accomplished girls. Crime with
all its attendant dangers, is not without lis
destinations and allurements to those who
have once fallen into its snares. Bot
eventually the day of judgment and relri-
button is sure to come. How emphatically
true is il that 'ahe way of the transgressor
is hard" Had old MIR. Hause devoted
half the tact, management and industry to
some honorable employment, he might
have acquired competency that would
have enabled him TO live comfortably dur
ing life, instead of wasting the short rem
nant Of his days in prisoners cell.

W SPEAKER OF THE SENATE.--Among
the number of persons already named as

character, besides being worthy member

AFFECTING ScENE-lNrERvIEw BETWEEN
A Murderer AND HIS wIFE.-H. Lecoun
was executed al Cincinnati on Friday last,
for the murder of Mr.. Clinch in drunken
brawl. The criminal was II years of age
and left wife and six children, the inheri-
tance Of his ignominy. The day before he
was executed he was visited by his wife, in
prison, and the scene Of their meeting was
extremely aliecting-so much so that even
the stern cheek Of the guard spaikled with
a tear. They conversed for a considerable
time, embraced, and when she was about 10
leave, after having bid him the last fare
well, and taken the last look upon the face
of the choice Of her heart, he franticaly

TAVERN LICENCES.

We noticed last week, the publication
OF an application for tavern license in
one of the Milton papers. The Legislature
has revived the act requiring notice by
publication in at least one paper, the last Of
the three insertions, to be not less than ten
days before the court. This, we presume,
is concession to the friends of the Maine
liquor law, who wished to prohibit the sale
OF liquor entirely. Our landlords will
cheeriully submit to almost any restrictions
in preference to the enactment of the
"Mane law"
