HOHENLINDEN OVER AGAIN,
OR the GREAT BATTLE OF wILKEs-BARRE.

OR TIE GREAT BATTLE OF WILkES-BARRE.
At Gilchrists when the sun was low
Say halfpast'ten o'clock, or So
Bill Thomas made all safe below,
And went to bed so peaceably.
But Gilchrist saw another sight,
BY the next mornings early light
Three Marshals had bloody fight,
But didn't " git the wietory~
Full three to one, in arms arrayed,
The valiant Marshals shrek for aid
While Lion Bill, sans club, sans blade,
Threatens to lick the grocery"*
Then shook the chair, all smashed and riyen,
And kicks, aud digs, and blows were given
Bill has hard tmes but still.he' livin',
And gives 'em some "sockdolagers
And redder still the blood shall fow
And stain the carpet all below,
When Bills rough handcuff deals a blow
On Crossens stupid calabash
The scene is changed. There stands the brave
In Susquehanna's rolling wave;
While on the shore each bloodhound knavo
Rubs his sore head wofully!
He's gone-but ne'er yon brilliant sun
Shall see again such precious fun
The hounds are non-plussed, every one,
And Bill is of to Canada
How sad they part, where bold they meetl
Each blood-hound's tail droops to his feet
They sneak away down the back street,
As though they dragged tin canistersl

This Religion that of naturel teaches an ever

Reason, and Eternal Progress the destiny of the
race--its subjects; It's expounder and preacher
in all countries in language vernacular to its hear
ers, and all understand its teachings. The equal
ity of mans rights of the rights to Life Liberty,
aud the pursuits of happiness are based upon this
Religion. And when this truth shall be seen and
acknowledged by our nation, then, and not till
then, will Slavery die, and her degraded millions
arise into the dignity Of free and free women.
'Tis American Theology holds these southern
slaves in bondage. Human Reason long ago re-
belied, and human sympathy would long ago have
responded to its dictates, aud set the slaves free
but for the influence Of Theology and this Mytho-
logical Religion. But for its influence, our Gov

only professedly and sentimentnly FREE. No

be found in the Text Book of Popular Religion
Human beings can not be enslayed, until their
minds and bodies are overcome by a superior force.

An OLD SoAKERs LAST SPREE "A CORES
pondent of the Troy Times, writing of great
change which has taken place in that region in
consequence Of the suppression of tho rom

soaker who has since reformed and is now a
regular total abstinence man. 1t is given i'll
the old follows own words, as follows:
81 once got little change together and
started off ON a regular bender bought
small keg with a bung hole in the middle of it.
so that il would bo handy to drirk from, and
had it filled with rum. After taking few
good swiggs bid it in o cooper-shop under
some shavngs thcn started off for town with a
lot of "fcllers." we all got glorously drunk, and
the spare change Of tho party was soon all gone.
Before long wo all began to feel mscrably dry
again. but money and credit were both gone.
Fuddled as we all were, wo started for tho
cooper-shop. Arriving there, after having
travelled over much surplus ground, got hold
of what supposed tho keg of rum, but tho
bung wouldn't come out. Each one OF us
tugged and pulled, and cheioed at it, but in
vain. We separated in despair. carried it
homo for n sober trial; and what do you think
it was? Why it was the head Of an old ,cood-
en- beetle, with just enough of tho handle left to
stick in its place. My rum keg was still in
the shavings and there let il stay. That was

INDIANA FREE BANKs.-Hon. John p. Dunn

INDIANA FREE BANKs.--Hon. John p. Dunn
the Auditor of State, issued circular TO cor
rect an erroneous impression that tho holders
of notes of the Stock Banks, having them pro-
tested, thereby acquire priority in the pay
ment and he deems it his duty that such is not
the fact In case of the winding up of any
bank under the statute those notes not pro-
tested are placed on the same footing as those
who have becn protested and dividend of tho
assets will be made pro rata.
Holders of notes should also bear in mind
that The amount of tho dividend would be cs-
sentially diminished by tho costs and fees OF
protests and expenses of the sale Of assets.
He says, also, that he is authorized to ex-
change tho State Stock deposited in his Office
as collecterial by the banks Mt par, for their
circulation when presented in sums not loss
than ore thousand dollars. Tho Auditor states
that in discharging his duty to all the credit
ors of any bank which may be forced into lin-
quotation, ho will not proceed to offer any OF
the assert of such banks in the market, until at
Icas, sixty days notice in New York London
and Paris so as TO ensure the largest and best
pricc for the securities, and not then if, in his
opinion, tho ultimate interests of all concerned
will be promoted by further extension.

THE FADED ROSE.

Yes, bind that Rose upon thy brow,
Thou light and Laughing one,
But think not il will be rs now,
When sets yon evening sun.
IT'S lovely now, but soon tho bloom
From its sweet folds may fade;
A single hour may seal its doom
And join it with the dead,
To its hall of rest,
In the golden west.
Ere the brilliant orb sinks low
That blooming rose
Its hue may loose,
Never again to glow, dear girl,
Never again to glow.
And human life is like that rose,
A weak and fragile thing;
In Natures garden fine it grows,
Famed by the winds Of spring,
But wint'ry blasts the rifted corn
In angry storms blow through;
Nipp'd by disease its bloom is Ger
1t falls as roses do.
In urning zones,
Though light enthrones
Thy forehead fair to lave
A world of care
Thy heart may wear
That bends it for the grave, dear girl.
That bends it for the grave.
