WoRMY.-The Louisville eCourer tells some
"hard yarns" 1t says that fishing party in
Kentucky got out of "bait," and no worms
were to be found. At last young lady sug.
gested the following:
"That physician who was present should
dispatch a messenger to his office to procure
vial of vermifuge, which should be admin
istered to certain talow-faced young man
who had been affecting some attentions to
her during the morning, and if the worms
were not forthcoming she would pay the ex-
pense of the medicine !"
1t is not positively known whether the pre-
scripton was administered, but it is known
that few persons have the temerity to say
"worms" to certain talow-faced young
gentleman in the viciuity Of Brashear's
Creek.

ENEMIES OF LIBERTY.

To such Americans as have sung Pecan to
the virtue and patriotism of the foreign ele-
ment of our population, we commend the
facts involved in the late riot at Cincinnati
American Protestants in that city attempted
the establishment of Sabbath School, and
opened one, which was closed by the threats
and violence of German Catholics, who de-
clared that they would kill whoever persisted
in opening such school. A riot ensued, in
which the Germans were beaten, and driven
to their homes and some of their haunts were
torn down by an enraged populace. The
School thus opposed, is to be opened next
Sabbath, at whatever hazard, and should be
though it cost the blood of a thousand Pa
pists and infidels.
On snclra point as this, Americans must
not yield hairs breadth. To our schools,
Sabbath schools, free affairs, voluntary rei-
gion and regard for the Sabbath, We owe the
solid virtue and enlightenment which place
us at such immense distance in advance of
the Goddess, bigoted, and bacchanal peoples,
whose convicts and paupers are shipped like
vermin upon us. Americans must not ,Dait
to be warned-they are warned already
Tho German has openly threatened our Sab
bath, our Constitution, and many of our dear.
est and most preservative national customs.
Let him learn that he is not our lord and mas
ter, but a stranger, sheltered by our hos
pitality-and wo be to him if he play the
viper!
He tried his insolence at st. Louis, and his
punishment was swift. Wherever he tries it,
be he German or Irishman, the people, the
American-vigiant in the defence of Free
dom won and bequeathed by our fathers
shall smite him, even to the earth, if need be.
If the foreigner spurns our ways in his heart,
he must be careful-for his own safety-how
he raises his hand and wags his tongue against
them.

POISONED LlouoR.-We have recently met
with many complaints about drugged and
poisoned whiskey. In former and more
honest times two to three gallons of whiskey
were distilled out of a bushe of grain; now,
by the aid of poisoned ingredients, distilers
often manufacture four gallons to the bushel,
witch will carry bead equal TO the first
proof; while 1t carries destruction and death
TO the drinker. Much ofthe common whis-
key now sold is q vile compound, which
would poison the stomach of hog. The
Stanton Spectator says il is quite common
to find any quantity Of fish berries, and n
white sediment resembling lime, in the bot
tom of whiskcy barrels. Thousands of slaves,
to say nothing Of whites, are no doubt year
" killed by drinking of such a poisonous Ii
quid.-Richmond Enquirer.

OF A letter from Washington states that
the official term of Gov. Brigham Young, of
Utah Territory, expired on Friday, the 29th
Of September. His successor has not been
agreed upon, and the appointment of one
has been found matter of considerable diff.
tcuIty. Young will not be re appointed, but
it is well known that no man, not a Mormon,
could govern that lawless and impious COM
munity, without the material aid of two well
appointed regiments. The Secretary of the
Territory, A. w. Babbit, formerly delegate in
Congress, will direct affairs until the further
action of the President. The political insub-
orulnatlon Of these people is as remarkable
as their moral and religious Irregularities
Mr'foung and his associates have not thought
ut to forward copies of their Territorial laws,
or the accounts of the expenditures Of the
public appropriations for the past two years

tains that man is species of galvanic bate

systems of medicine arc wrong in principle;
the true remedy consisting in regulating vi
electrical appliances, but simply by the inha-
ation of increased quantities of oxygen or

cording 20 the character of the disease--
which will exercise speedy stimulating or
