A CASE OF CONSCtESCE.--Somc twelve
years ago, a wagon shop belonging to a Mr..
Kline, of Eaton, Ohio, was burned to the
ground. About the same time building at
West Alexandria was likewise consumed BY
fire. None Of the coniecturcs at the time
concerning the origin of the fires were correct
the real originator was not suspected.
Twelve years had elapsed and the disasters
mentioned had been almost forgotten. Last
week. says the Eaton Register, came weary
footman from Pennsylvania, leaning ona
staff, and entered the house of Mr. Kline
Time and trouble had wrought so great a
changein the mans appearance that-though
formerly known to his INTERCHANGEABLE was
not recognised until he had told his name
He was the man who had set fire to both the
aforementioned buildings. His object had
been plumber, but he says his nefarious enter
prise resulted in nothing but disappointment

givcness, whichever should be preferred by
those whom he had injured. IT was deemed
more noble 10 forgive than to chastise, and

to West Alexandria, and was there told that
the man whom he sought, and whose build
ing he had fired, had moved to Indiana. The
pcnitent man resumed his pilgrimage in that
direction.

WoRsT ENEMIEs.--Your worst enemies,
who arc they? Generally speaking, they arc
your relatives, those who should DC attached
by bonds Of true, devoted friendship. Re-
ports of untruths come to your ears you need
not wonder where they had their origin, but
look among your relatives, those who treat
you most cordially and respectfully your
first suspicious fall upon them, and we guar
sntcc that you shall not be obliged to look
! further.
If your education is limited, they will be
the first to tell it to all the world, cxa.gcra-
ting your faults by ten fold. The man who
has general and practical knowledge is far the
| superior, i'll our estimation, to him who is a
book worm, and knows not how to use his
learning that he may benefit the world or
msclf-Thosc who have just finished col
lcgc education, and enter on the duties Of ac-
tive life, experience its collision and cares,
come at once TO the sound and philosophical
conclusion, tina. there is not the least proper
ton between what they know and their abil-
ity TO use it. 1t is practical knowledge and
action that make us our daily bread.
If your relatives see you rising in the world
they arc the first to kick at the foot Of the PC
dystal which you are triumphan;ly ascending.
1t is an old proverb, and a true one--''A
| prophet never has homer at home"
Do your relatives dcspise and every day

YOU may be trol under foot and they thus
be promoted through your death TO stations
which your highest antcpations were entered
on! No! It is not. Read human nature

SINGULAR DISCLOSURE Surgeon in the
United States army recently desired to know
the most common cause of enlistment. BY
permission of the captain, in company con-
tanning tifty-fve, the writer pledged never to
disclose the name Of officer or private, except
as physical or metaphysical fact, the true
history was obtained of every man. On in
vcstigation, it appeared that nine-tenths en-
listed on account of some female difficulty,
thirteen of them had changed their names,
and forty-three were either drunk or partial
ly SO, at the time of their enlistment. Most
Of them were men Of fine talents and learning
and had once been in elevated positions in
life. Four had been layers, three doctors, and
two minister.

n. p. WILLIS NOT DYING.-It would APP
ly appeared in the New York Mirror, that
the sympathy so lihcra!;' bestowed by the
press upon Mr.. Willis, in consequence of his
supposed failing health, is entirely uncalcl
for. a correspondent of the Mirror tells the
following good story, at the expense of the
poetic invalid:
"a r;diculus story is just now current
along the road. Willis. you know, cxccls in
the plaintire species of composition, and can
not exist without large daily doses of sympa-
thy and admiration. Consequently, he keeps
himself diligently at the point of death. The
story is, that the Brigatlicr, short time
since. was actually taken in himself by this
point of-dcath humbug. Reading in Boston
paper that his beloved partner was, really and
truly, in a very bad way indeed he rushed
up to ldlcwald in great alarm. The Briga-
der, you are aware, never writes much for
his paper, and depends upon Willis for the
greater part of his weekly supply of matter.
OF course, if N. ?. Willis should happen to be
seriously unwcll, the Brigadier would be in
an extremely awkward predicament. Breath
less and anxious. the old soldier hurried to
| the gates of IdIcwald What was his sur
prise, what his relief, what his mcrliment, to
find the plaintivc and rudy Home Journalist,
axe in hand, trimming his trees with the en-
ergy of backwoodsman That was a tough
but happy day for the Brigadicr. His encr-
gctic partner tired him out with rambling
over the place. No matter. He returned
with his pockets stuffed with copy" -

SINGULAR FHAT.-A gentleman riding few
days since, between lIoneoye and Rush, on
the Canandaigua and Niagarn Falls railroad
saw cow running with all speed to keep
ahead of the train. The animal persisted in
keeping the track, notwithstanding the rapid
rate at which the train gained upon her. The
train was travelling at lightning speed, and
very soon struck the COW. The long nose of
the Catcher struck under the breast Just as
she was making one Of her highest bounds,
when she was in an instant thrown thirty feet
in the air, and again struck upon the track
Just as the car shot from under her. The
train consisted of the locomotive and tender,
baggage and two passenger cars, and did
not pass over the COW, which fell dead on the
track from the violence other last somerset.
