NATURALIZATION IN New JERSEY.
A bill il before the House of Assem-

poet Of an early adoption. which pro-
poses TO take the power Of making
citizens entirely out Of The State

pErRlr,gp HUMAN BoD1Es.--On
excavation IN a churcll-J ard, a few
days ago, at Dayton, Ohio, two human
bodies we're cxhumed in perfectly
pctrilied state. One Of the bodies was
recognized as that Of a Mrs. 10y burr.
cd twenty-four years ago. The En-
qnircr says:
The shroud, and indeed all the COW
cring which was upon the body at the
time Of the in.crment, twenty. -four
years ago, had disarpeared---not a
vcstige Of them remained, The body
was perfect, except the right ley, from
the knee to the ankle joint. where the
flesh seemed to have wasted away, and
lay in the bottom Of the coffin in i
substance resembling ashes mixed with
sand. With this exception Of decay
the body and limbs exhibited the same
perfectness Of exterior they did when
life aud animation we're in the body.

THREE BRIDGES BROKEN DOWN ON THE Pa
CIFIC RoAD.-One disaster after another
seems to fall upon the Pacific Railroad
Scarcely had the news reached us that the
bridge over the Gasconade had fallen. when
the telegraph brought intelligence that the
bridge across BGuff Creek had also fallen,
just after portion of the train containing
those who had been wounded al the Gascon-
ade, had passed over it The St. Louis
Democrat, Of Tuesday, says that on Friday
night the bridge across the Moreau River
gave way, and is now mass of ruins. This
is said to have been the only complete bridge
on the whole line, and the result that has
happened only confirms what had been al
ready said of those which had previoulv fall
len. Not one has stood the test of a flood

hardly an entirely uninjured man to be seen:
Most of those who had escaped, had streams
of blood flowing over their faces from spln-
ter wounds. Others limped and hobbed
about, looking for their friends. A board
shanty was the only shelter to be had, and
that was soon filled with the wounded, whose
silent, speechIess agony, was enough to make
the stoutest heart shudder Immediately
after the accident, the heavens grew dark
and black, as though the night had come:
The wind shrieked through the leaAess trees
the heavens were rent in twain, and from the
crevice cleaned the white lightning and the
hoarse thunder beloved its cruel mockings
a the woe beneath. 1t seemed as if the ele-
ments were holding high carnival over the
scene of slaughter.

RENDERING TEETH INsENsIBLE TO PAIN
The Dublin Hospital Gazette states that dis
easod teeth have been rendered insensble 10
pain by a cement composed of Canada bal
sam and Stacked lime, which is to be insert
ed in the hollow OF tooth, like pill. 1t
is stated that such pills afford immediate re-
lief in all toothaches bat chronic cases of in
hammation. This remedy for toothache is
simple, safe, and can easily be tried by any
person.
Thus is LIFE-If we die to-day, the sun
will shine as brightly, and the birds sing rs
sweetly Tomorrow Business will not be
suspended for a moment and the great mass
will not bestow thought to our memories.
- Is he dead?" will be the solemn inquiry OF
few, as they pass TO their work. But no
one will miss us except our immediate con-
nectlons; and in short time they will for
get us. and laugh as merrily as when we sat
beside them. Thus shall we all, now active
in life, pass away; our children crowd close
behind US, and they too will soon be gone.
In few years not living being can say;

Der in the tomb. Thus is life. How rapid

from "Life Illustrated"
Preserve your credit, at any sacrifice.

may cost you row..
Yet be lenienI 10 creditors. In hard
times there viii be honest men whose
promises TO pay % sacrifices will enable
them to keep. Cherish, therefore an OBJ
liging accommodating spirit.
Let not the strong be chary Of their
helPto the weak. Il is the interest Of the
strong 10 keep the weak from falling, be-
cause every failure is q new shock to pub
lie confidence, and makes the times har-
der FOR every body.
Next 10 preserving your credit. try and
keep men and women in employment
DO not dismiss a ohand" unless necessity
compels. Bear in mind that every one
WILL Iiyej that either as a worker, or as
a pauPer, or as a thief, every man MUST be
supported.
When the cold weather comes, there
will be more than an usual amount of suf-
fering among the poor, and doubtless ex-

Of the general burden. AS to the com
mon mode OF indiscrminate giving avoid

Leohomize-but economize right. Eat
less sunpluous food, wear less costly
clothes, give fewer parties; but do not

a book or a lecture. And especially nev-
er think, for one instant, that you can af-
ford to stop your paper! In hard times,
above oil tines, you need your paper.

ISDIAS D~rPREDArIoss NoarH or
PLATrE.-Under this title the Savannah
Sentinel speaks as follows:
"Why it is that the soutlaws Of the
Plains" concentrate their efforts to pre-
vent the occupation Of the Territory north
Of the Platte, while they leave all that
part Of it, similarly situated, south Of that
river freely open 10 settlements, we can
not conceive; but certain it is, that fact
will greatly deter the incoming emigra-
lion to the north Of the Platte"
We deny that there is any concentration
Of efforts on the part of the outlaws Of
the Palms. against settlements, on the
North side of the Platte. There is no
foundation whatever for such an opinion.
No opposition has been manifested to-
wards the settlers by the Indians. Emil
grants coming this way, will be quite as
safe, il not more SO, than upon the South
side. If Government does its duty, we
think there wIll Ge htde or no danger on
either side.
