We have far greater respect for the man who
pufs himself than for the man who puffs his
neighbor. In the former case there is something
of a sublime self-reliance, noble trusting to un-
supported valor. To enter the ring alone, with
out backers is at least proof of courage, and as
to selfvaunting, have we not the authority of all
the Homeric heroes In the Iliad no man but
ters another-each anoints himself, and that
most literally. Why in the name of all that is
candid, should great man affect depreciation
Look to Moses and Hyams. They don't own
themselves inferior to any in trade, ON the con-
trary, they take up the Jew's-harp, and twang
it in their own laudation. What would be the
effect if Nibbs, in the coffee line, announced
himself in his advertisement as inferior to
Husks, who deals in the same department? !?
Why, he might shut up shop next term, for he
would be playing into the hands of his rival.
Nibbs does nothing of the kind. He AYERS
his is the sole establishment in London where
genuine coffee can be obtained and, as conf
dence begets believers, he is thriving man.
Husks, if he pleases, may insinuate that Nibbs
lies indeed, if he does not, he will hardly secure
an adequate share of the public patronage.

Blaw-weary writes an essay, in his usual unin-
telligible style, upon the genius and character

tendency of the writings of Blaw-weary. The
unhappy confederates conceive that they ar,
covering one another with glory-they are mo-
aware that whatever comes from their hands il

Mutual interest is all that binds them to

THE LITTLE WoRLDs.-The multitudinous, OF
microcosms Of which the world called society is
made up, would form delicious subjects for the
metaphysical cosmologist to enlarge upon, if
there were time enough in the longest life to
look into their various structures, movements,
histories and relations to each other. But the
interval that separates first from second child
hood is too short for the accomplishment Of the
task: in fact, it is as much as most people
can do to master the cosmology Of the es-
pecial worlds in which they severally live
and move, within the short space between life's
vestibule ami its back d0or--the grave. New
erthelese, in " circulating among these little
worlds, the quick observer notes a good deal
that is suggestive and instructive, and, if q
cynic and humorist, he finds plenty Of mate

HoRR1D MURDER NEAR WHEELING.

Mr. Alex. Garden, of Wheeling, Va, was
brutallv murdered on Sunday last, while re-
turning from WoodSfeld, where he went on
Saturday to pay his taxes, and near where he
owned II farm He was riding along in com
panv with several neghborS, portion of
whom proceeded ahead at brisk pace, leay-
ing Garden in company with man named
Henry Craig and another man NhO was much
intoxicated Garden remarked that he would
soon overtuke them. When the men in adj
vance reached the river they waited for some
time. and Garden not coming up, they return
and tound i'm lying dead on the ground
wcItering in blood, with his skull horribly
beaten and manglcd by blow from stonei
his brains scattered for several rods around !;
one of his eyes knocked out, and his body
awfuHy mangled. Craig was lying on the
body and the the other man whose name we
did not ascertain, on the ground near by, with
the bride of one of the horses on his arm.-
The Wheeling Intclligvncrr says:
NO cause is assigned for this terrible muir
der. Craig pretended to be so drunk that h7
did not know what he was doing. Trails Of
blood were traced for some distance, as if Gar
den had attempted to escape after he was first
struck Appearances, in some respects, indi-
cate that Craig was divestcd of all his clothing
except his pants This, however, is mere
surmise, rs there was no evidence of it elected
at the examination. Craig is a single man,
and had heen in the employ of Judge Elihu
Morris. He was committed to Jail"
