HE RELIGION OF PAYING DEpTs.-
One OF our religious exchanges has the
following strong remark on this subject.
They drive the nail in to the head and
clinch it,
"Men may sophisticate as they please :;
they can never make 1t right, and all the
bankrupt laws in the universe cannot
make it right, for them not to pay their
debts. There is sin in this neglect, as
clear, and ns deserving church discipline,
as IN stealing or false swearing. He who
violates his promise to pay, or withholds
the payment of a debt when it is in his
power to meet his us: engagement, ought to
pc madesto feel that IN the sight OF all
honest hen he is swindler. Religion
may be a very comfortable cloak under
which to hide; but if religIon dos mo,
make o man deal JUSTLY it is not ortll
having" ..J.. :.

NoN-lNTERCoURsE.-THE BATTLE OF
THE BRIDGE.--The Town Councils of
Hamburg and Augusta have got up be-
tween themselves u fierce battle, which
promises to pcrpetuate the memory Of Hen
ry Shultz. This worthy specimen of Ger
man perseverance, after fighting the Bridge
case with the city Of Augusta in every
Court in which h9 could get a hearing, Mt
last took it into his head to try our Legis-
laturc, and the former charter of the
Bridge having expired, that body granted
to him the renewal. But he died soon af.
ter, and then the Council of Augusta ho-
ped for cessation of hostilitics. In this
they rcckoned without their host. The
spirit of its former owner still fingered n
bout the Bridge, and carried on the war.
through Gen. Jones and Mr.. Kennedy. its
assignecs and administrators. These gen
tlcmcn, by permission of the Hamburg
Council, have erected toll gate on the
Carolina side, and now, they who would
cross to Augusta must needs pay double
toll. Nor only this. The grand sachcms
of Augusta have held their war-talk. and
resolved to increase the rate on their side
to the full amount allowed by the charter.
And they avow What this increase shall be
continued until the spirit of Shultz be ex-
orcised, and the Carolina toll gate be pull
ed down. 1t is impossible to predict the
issue or the length of the battle, but ac-
counts say that
-" all the youth Of Augusta are on fire,
And silken dalliance in the wardrobe lies"
Between these and the ghost of the gal
liant Shultz, the Augusta Bridge may yet
become n second Londi. - Charieston

The Jacksonville QL) Journal says that
when the superintendent of the Asylum for
the poor in that county first took charge of
it, he found an insane man who had been
loaded with heavy chains for years. Be-
lieving that this crueltykept the man insane,
he took the responsibility of taking them
off, and gradually restoring him to liberty
The man at first ravcd, expecting fresh tor
lures: then he doubted, and finally realised
that hewas free. He was overpowcred with
dcigh', exclaiming constantly, as he looked
upon the outer world of sunshine, '-Oh, how
bcautiful!' The gratitude to his liberator
prevailed. At length he voluntarily went to
work in the garden, though he had nearly
lost all his power OF locomotion, and be-
came entirely recovered. He is now work
ing on a farm. Irg. .

coming Into the State, but levels all its psn-

PROTECTING LETrERs.-biany. thousands
OF letters sent to the post Office are returned
as dead letters, the persons to whom they
are sent not being found. They arc de-
stroyed unless they contain enclosures of
some kind; and often information of value
to the persons addressed, or their friends, is
destroyed with them. In n new edition of
the regulations of the post office, about to
be published, it is provided that in every
case where the writer of letter chooses to
protect it from the chance of being opened

the words, ''to be preserred' in which case it

The last surviving relative in Norwich of
Arnold, the traitor, died at New Hamp-
shire almshouse, on the 18th ult, aged
ninety-two. She was cousin to Benedict.
and the last of his kindred in that vicinity.
She and sister lately deceased were &C.
centric in their manners, and not always
grateful for the favors they had received.
Yet they owned the house which for many
years they had occupied, and Lizzy had
deposited with n trusty neighbor some
$50 to defray her funeral expenses. She
was carried to the poor house at her own re-
qucst, that she might be made more comfor-
table than she would be in her own house.
There is evidence that on the morning of
her removal she had good fire on the
hearth, and plenty Of wood in the house
TO make moro. The immediate nciphbors.
and others more remote, were remarkably
attentive to to the wants of these unfortu-
nate women, and had long furnished from,
their own tables most Of their living. So
far from visiting upon them the sins OF
their traitor relative, they could hardly
have treated them with greater Kindness
had he been the purist patriot of the revo-
luton. ..... ... ..

when was people powerful without be-

that many years in this active age will pass
over when the love of conquest, the pos

where now are the Statesmen Of authori-
