ming managers allowed to be taken, they
were sure of having four returned.
So odious, however, did the system be-
come, and so manifold were its evils, that
public attention was aroused, and by leg
islative enactment in most Of the States,
al, Lotteries were abolished.
Within 4 few years, however, we regret
to see, the system has been revived, by a
set ot sharpers and land sharks compared
with whom licensed Lottery men were
saints
We allude not to the Maryland Lottery
men, who insult every man in this State,
whose name they can find, by sending him
lottery circulars, and some of which they
even get inserted in Pennsylvania news
journals These are clearly opposed to
the spirit of the law against lotteries, and
aman in Harrisburg was recently sentenced
to imprisonment for helping these Mary
land plunderors. A more rigid law agains,
uttering their Circulars, or publishing
their Schemes, would soon deprive them
Of their power to do mischief SO openly.
"GIFT CONCERT' is the usual title
of the present mode of Lottery swindling.
They are of plausible aspect, fair and
promising in their representations, and we
receive two or three week, with a polite
request to aid in wronging our patrons by
numbering up a column or two of the
Chroaicie with their frauds-some offering
to pay in cash, but most requiring us tc
meet our creditors by taking our pay il
tickets, We suppose they are becoming
numerous, and that they find thousand:
who will be fooled out of one to five dol

WHO SHOULD WORSHIP Cop IN SING
ING.-P:ofessor Thomas Hastings says,
IF any individual has really no voice for
speech and song, and can acquire none, he,
and he alone, is allowed always 10 be si-
en-: worshiper; for where nothing is given
nothing is required. Even such an one,
however, is bound to yield the homage Of
the heart in relation to the exercises,
for the duty is absolutely universal

At the last State Election, Yes, in one
of the larger towns of Pennsylvania, a
female, plainly but decently clad, came to
the ballot box, and offered ticket-hcr

the woman returned with at least one line
Of joy upon her face. The officer did moi

Think Of the Poor.

As the cold winter sets in, and the
wind, in hollow bass, sweeps our dwe.-
lings, and the binding snow, in mad fln-
tastic dance, keeps time to the music, says
contemporary, let US think Of the Poor.
How many thousands, .. this hour, sit
crouching over few embcrs which their
scanty fuel will scarcely replenish for the
day homeless in all that makes home
happy and lovely; without food, without
clothes, without smiles, and without hope.
Poor in the heart of great city's abun-
dance; desolate even in the centre of
wealth, and surrounding church spires ;
in the midst of gaiety abandoned amid
crowds. To the strong man it is not bear
able. Up and away to the busy mar. to
struggle and to labor. With energy win
ming relief from destiny; daring even Fate
to her worst! But the poor woman ;
wha. of her? If she beg, she is an i'm
postor If she solicit work in the streets,
she is rebuffed and scorned. Alone amid
her famished ones, she tolls at a child's
wages, and with that last refuge from the
worlds scorn--a cold room and needle
sits dropping as the weary hours 60 BY.
