To the Bows.

We are panied to observe the excess Of
rudeDess to which the boys of our little
town enter into. There cannot be any
gathering ofany kind, but that is more or
less interrupted by a set ofrude boys. This
is not right young men, you were inten-
| ded for q far more noble work. Look
about you and grasp the means of mental
improvement that arc continually coming
within your reach and clothe your minds
with laurels from the hill of science. The
streams of wisdom to which can have ac-
cess, are continually flowing through our
favored land. Schools, Academies, and
Colleges, are increasing in number and
reputation. Those who are grasping for
wisdom and striving to arise to their prop
er ranks in the scale of intellectual exis-
tence, have means placed within their reach
to accomplish this noble project. Now,
young friends, in view Of the various av-
enues through which you can drink of
the fountain of knowledge, we entrcat you,
in the language of another to ego and
gather laurels on the hill of science, and
liuger among her unfading beauties. -
Remember that every exertion made by
you, and every step taken, you entwine
around you a wreath of unfading honor.
In blooming youth is the time to improve
to the utmost limit those God-lke gifts co l.
fessed by nature; the time to SOW the seeds
of an intellectual honesty and prepare for
in life. You know not what
awaits you, You know not the height to
which you may soar in life the position
you may be called to occupy, Strive,
then, We entreat you, with all your might
and strength, to expand your mental pow
ers.

A Warning to Keep OF.

The Kanzas Herald of Freedom puts
forth the following warning to all persons
who may be disposed to reenact the
scenes at Parkyille, which resulted in the
destruction of the Luminary press:
1t was said by the rioters in Parkyille,
on Saturday, that The destruction of the
Luminary Office was designed as an ex-
ample to others, and it is very knowingly
hinled that ours will meet with similar
fate. Very well, we have concluded to
give any number Of persons who wish to
perpetrate such an act of folly, a free
pass TO Kingdom come and we pledge
them every assistance in our power
Probably many of them never took an
upward journey, and would like to try
the experiment Of sailing on blaze of
glory, such as a couple of kegs of gun
powder, exploded at an opportune occa-
sion, would furnish.
We have not member in our family,
ourself included, who would not deem a
transit into the future life with cOmpGgn,

ing press destroyers, as favor rarely to
be met with. Should the Herald Of Free
dom Office at any time be invaded for the
purpose Of destruction, we give this time
ly warning to all. both friend and foe,
that unless they wish to Ego up" they
had better keep aloof from its immediate
vicinity, for our purpose is fixed, and the
consequences cannot be prevented.
We have prepared a duplicate copy
of our subscription books, and that sub
scribcrs may not be losers by any con-
tingency which may arise we hereby au.

The Old Grave Yard.

"CoME, Join with the row broken-hearted,
And mingle your tears with the lone;
The pride Of our home has departed;-
Come, weep for the one that is gone.
The light of his bright eye has faded,
From his pale lips issue no BREATH
The rnglets hisfair brow o'ershaded
Are met with the cold damps of DEATH"
We have again been requested by nu-
merous citizens to urge the necessity OF
repairing and fencing in the "O'd GrHre
Yard" In company with one of our best
citizens we paid visit to this place
of "fnal rest, and found the fences down,
giving free access to pasturing Cattle, Hor-
ses and Hogs. Many of the Tomb Stones
were broken and scarrifed, and some of
the graves tramplcdupon by animals
Forhumanity sake, we appeal to the better
feelings of the citizens of Jackson, to
make some effort to have this matter RENE
died, Let there be committees of investi-
CATION appointed, to examine into the mat
ter and have this old "resting place for
the dead" decorated as it well deserves to
be.
Who is it, that has Father, Mother,
Brother, Sister, Wife, Child, or next OF
kin, or dear and near friend, laid in the
silent tomb, but wishes to see the flowers
of earth blooming beautifully above their
graves? If none, we hope each and every
one of our citizens will consider it their
duty to act well their part in having the
proper arrangements made to repair and
decorate the Yard. DR.. o. G. Miller has
consented to make an entrance through his
otleading to the cemetery, and to fence and
Gate the same, and there being, as we un-
derstand, Posts and Rails sufficient to fence
one half upon the ground now, it would
require but small expenditure to COM
plete the fenceing, A portion Of ground
owned by one Of our leading citizens
joining this sacred spot, in our opinion
should be purchased and taken into the
Survey 1t certainly is intruding up.
on good nature to ask of one individual to
donate for any purpose, when none else
feel willing to subscribe to the repairing Of
the main ground. We hope that some of
citizens will look to this matter, and have
this "OLD CRAVE YARD" fixed up
in good style, and made fit place for the
dead.

The editor of the New Hampshire Pat
rioL President Pierce's home organ, says
that the Democratic party is desirous of
putting an end to all undue influence of

we guess the Democratic party, if it were
to do it, would be very much in the pre-
