pou,ed, and the boys go, to going to Town and
| getting on sprees. In fact everything went wrong
with Smith from the time he stopped his paper.
At last the climax arrived-Smith could stand it
no longer.
One day adashing fellow with a fast horse drove
| up 10 Smiths gate, and aaked him what he would
| take for his crop Of Molasses.
A figure was mentioned, and Immediately ac-
! copied by the broker. This astonished Smith a lit
tie, for he thought he had asked a good price, and
expected to be jewed down.
"Oh yes, I'm not hard. l saw that Molasses had
taken Il great rise; and l am satisfied with making
FIVE cents a gallon on my purchase soon as l get to
Plaquemine." With this remark, and leaving the
planter iransfixed with astonishment. the young
man was abont getting in bis buggy to leave. when
Smith exclaimed
Say. sir, where did you get that news'"
ain the Sentinel, to be sure.'
"In ,he Sntina!" exclaimed Smith in the height
of astonishmen,, "s that paper still pnb.ished?'
"CertainIy it is; why do you asky"
"Mercy OH me! l stopped my subscription a
year ago, and l was sure it had killed the paper"
"Ha! ha! well you are green, and deserve to get
only half price for your Molasses. The Sentinel
seems to have more subscribers than ever"
"Astonish,ng!" continued Smith. why nobody
takes it abou. bere-they all stopped their s~ubscrip-
TONS"
Yes, and found they could no, get along without
it, and gladly rene we'd their subscriptions again."
said the young man as he cracked his whip aud
drove away.
1t was some minutes before Mr.. Smith recovered
from his astonishment. His first act then was 10
saddle his horse. ride to town and renew his SUBJ
s%crip,ion. / have only to add, that now Smiths
family again feels the happy influence of a good
NEWSPAPER.

u. S. BRANCH MINT.
Nep Orleans, March 7Lh, 1855.
During the year 1854, the furnaces of the Mel.
ting Department of the U. s. Branch Mint, il
| this city, have all been constructed Of the Cold
spring Fire Brick." These furnaces are daily
maintained for many hours at a temperature Of
form 1000 deg. to 5000 deg, and have been used
uninterruptedly during several months, without
the least repairs, and are yet in use. l consider
the Coldspring Friedrich superior to any manu-
featured in the United States, and equal to most
of the celebrated kinds imported from foreign
countries.
M. F. BONZANO,
Melter and Re6ner, U. S. Branch Mint, N. o.
New ORLEANS, March oh, 1855.
In the summer of 1853, ! used partly the Cold
spring Fire. Brick, partly the English and Pitts
burg, in constructing a bagasse burning-furnace on
myFairview plantation in the parish ofSt. Charles.
In the following year, (ls541 l made some altera-
tons to that furnace, again using partly the Cold
spring and partly the English Brick. This furnace
during the two grinding seasons was subject to
intense'heat uninterruptedly for some four months
each year, and l found that the Coldspring Bricks
had borne ii quite as well as the English and far
better than the Pittsburg.

Is easily borne if we bear it together.
When yon stole out to woo me when labor was
done,
And the day that was closingllf TO us seemed begun,
Did we care if the sunset was bright on the flow

Or if we crept out amid darkness and showers?
No, Patrick, no! we talked, while we braved the

Of all We could bear, if we bore it together.
Soon, soon, will these dark dreary days be gone

And our hearts be Lit up with a beam from the

Oh, let not our spirits, embittered with pain,
Be dead to the sunshine that anne to US then!
Heart in heart. hand in hand, let US welcome the

And sunshine or storm, we will bear it together.

h@ The second Coroner's Inouest
on the man killed at the riot at Portland
Me-, which has been in session most OF
the time since, has rendered verdict
that Robbins died of homicide by Neal
Dow. Whether the homicide was mur-
der or only manslaughter, the jury was
unable to decide. The previous inquest
came to very different conclusion. The
last was got up by the enemies of Dow,
and neither he or his frieAds have taken
any part in it. The jury were sx parts
and the witnesses all on one side. 1t
remains to be seen whether any grand
Jury will take the same view of the mat
ter. The Mayor holds himself in readi-
ness for any judicial investigation Of the
affair.

bOdying vast amount of information as to the
history, doctrine, government, and statistics Of
the different religious bodies, it is yet so hap
PLY blended with innumerable lively and en-

reader is surprised and delighted at the beauty
and interest with which the subject is invested.
Its circulation since first issued has been un-
paralleled in the annals of the business, and
proves it to be beyond all question the most
popular subscription book in the market. From
the borders of Maine to the confines Of Texas,
there is a vast field for its circulation. The
harvest truly is great, and only wants the pre-
sence of the labsrer to gather it in. Active,
earnest, self.relying and determined men can
find pleasant and profitable employment, and
pick up a vast deal of knowledge Of men and
things, by securing an agency and pushing the
work. To such we can offer the most liberal
inducements. None other need apply. Early
applications should be made to the publishers.

two months ago, she commenced using
Holloway's Pills, and complied with the

g I have been constantly working west
ward till the nasty Pacific has made a
a stop to further progress in that direc-
ton. In the fall of '49 my western
progress was suddenly stopped by the
Pacific and yet the sun sets west oi
me, and my wife positively refuses to g
to the Sandwich Islands, and the bark
is starting off of my rails, that is longer
than I ever allowed myself to remain Oh
one farm so that I am at loss how te
act in the present dilemma.
