ku blacksmith Of Miami, Mo, had his house burnt
Dr. TO tho ground, together with nearly all the con-
A. tents. A candle which had been carelessly left

"' On the same evening sparks from the Chin

6HPol warehouse at Waverly, Mo-, which was
In consumed, together with its contents consisting

VIC was blowing strong, there was great danger of
" the whole town being reduced TO ashes, when

SOCIAL PLEASURES.

, An intelligent female correspondent writes
the following under the above head. We hope
some of the young ladies Of Hannibal will adopt
tile suge estions directed 10 them:
We love to see close, active and uuwearied
performance Of duties, interspersed with gale
ties, and amusments of arefihing and elevatine
character. Let young men have debating socic-
ties, libraries, social halls, engage in fishing,
hunting and gymnastic exercises. Let the wine
cup, races, playing cards and billiard tables be
forsaken. Money spent FOR cigars, wine, to-
bacco and such useless indulgencies could be
better devoted to the purchase Of shells, miner
ais, coins, antiques; indeed any curiosities Of nu
ture, or art, engravings, statues, paintings, SC.
The coarse and ignorant delight only In the
pleasures Of sense. We do not advocate quiet
and sedentory amusements altogether. Exercis-
es of muscular strength, such as calisthencs
and gymnastics, are beneficial when we'll con
Quoted. What you do, do with all your SOUL
None of us admire a listless, selfish, care-for-
nothing person, while one Of clear, vigorous,
mind and energy, exerts en- influence wherever
he goes. The enthusiasm one person can ere.
ate by bold and earnest actor is astonishing.
.. - "Le us then be up and doing, .,.5,
.u. With heart for every fate, .....
Still achieving still pursuing,
Lean 10 labor, and to wait"
Let the young ladies os town meet one ar-
ternoon every week, ard spend it in reading
some useful and entertaining book. In the
course of their reading the coming week, let
anything they meet connected with The sube
discussed, or that under consideration, be i'm.
parted TO the other members. The ladies will
be surprised to find how much they have learn
ed in pleasant way, during the year. While
one reads let the others employ themselves will
their needles, either on work of their owl OF
for some benevolent purpose. In their reading
let them be unparalleled, and cooly, CAREFUL,
seek for truth. When the labors of the day are
over, the gentlemen would, perhaps, find il
pleasant TO joint reading circles, and all could
then engage in historical games, or other i'm.
proving recreation. ..... NJ.

rumors of the failing health of President PIERCE

health.
