A Sad Case--Fruits of Gambling.


How irresistible, when once acqulred,ls
the base passion OF gambling. Few there
are who, when they hazard a sum, have
courage and determination 10 throw OH
the spell that is upon them and thus save
their fortunes aud their responsibility.
And how many thousands there are who
annually GO down to ignominy, and per-
haps death, through their Unsuitable desire
TO try again.
We have a case in point: Barnabas
Bates, an aged, and in former years and
industrious, thrifty farmer, was yesterday,
and the third time within week, picked
up in the street in a state OF siuPer. up
on searching him at the Stauon-house, III
teen blank lottery tickets were found IN
his pockel-book. lie was placed in
cell, where he slept Off the effects OF tho
Iiouor he Iad drank, and when sober rea-
son had assumed her sway he exPenen-
ced the most poignant grief.
His story is a lamenlablc one. Bates
married young, and for years cultivated
small farm three miles from Utica. lie
was industrious, honest, and conrted.
Fortune smiled upon his efforts, and his
lors were rev arded with bountilul crops.
In time he amassed quite forlune--some
$4,000. He was blessed with goodly
number of sons and daughters, and bid
fair TO 90 down to his grave in peace, but
twelve years ago, he was induced TO "ry
his luck" and purchase lottery ticket.
Tie passion once acquired, he could not
stop, and from that day to this, he has
been constantly gambling in lottery tick
ets--wOrthless bits of parchment. His
farm, his wife and children are all gone.
The farm for lottery tickets, his wife into
the grave, and his children married and
scattered in all quarters. lie came 10
this city some two weeks since, having
in his possession the last Of his worldly
effects. Yesterday the last penny was
squandered, and he now stands a good
prospect of finding home in the peni-
lentiary. He remarked 10 Chief Morgan
yesterday, that he was ruined man, that
life was Indifferent TO him, and that he
cared not what disposition was made with
his case. Yet, said the old man, Il
blame no one, twas all my own fault |
brought lhi, on myself | am GO years
old, and know bayn't much longer 10
stay What lesson does the expert
ence OF this old man teach the rising gen.
ion.--.4iJany .Argus.

Red Hair.

The young men and women of the
present age, seem to think that red hair
is an abomination in the sight Of the pub
lie; and, consequently, endeavor, by all
manner of means, 10 change the color to
a beautiful chestnut brown, or black.
Even some portions of the press have
standing jokes on "carrotty pol!s;'" on the
stage, if they wish TO introduce very
funny character, they put red wig on
him. This is not as it should be, because
we have seen some red hair that was real
y beautiful; and in ancient times, nations
who were the most polished, the most
civilized, and the most skilliul in the fine
arts, were passionately y fond Of red hair.
The Gauls, ancestors of the modern
French, had the same preference, though
the color is now in disreputc as their de-
cendants like black hair. A taste for red
hair, however, still exists in extensive re-
gions. The Turks, for example, are
fond Of woman who have red hair, while
the modern Perslans have strong aver
sion to it. The inhabitants Of TripoIi,
who probably learned from The Turks,
gave their hair red tinge, by the aid Of
vermillion. The women Of Scinde and
Decean are fond of dyeing theirs red and
yellow, as the Romans did, in imitation Of
German hair. There is in Europeans
generally strong dislike to red hair, but
in Spain, red hair is admired almost TO
alteration, and there is a story told of one
of our naval commanders, who luxuriated
in fiery locks, being idoized and cares
sed in consequence by the Spanish wo-
men, and looked upon as perfect A

THE AMERICAN coy.
BY JOHN II. HEWITT.

"Father, look up, that banner see,
How gracefully it flies;
Those pretty stripes they seem to he
A rainbow in the skies"
"Your country's banner, cts my son,
And proudly kinds the light,
Der oceans wave--in foreign climes,
AS symbol of our might"
"Father-what fearful noise is that,
Like laundering in the clouds?
Why do the people wave their hats,
And rush along in crowds :"
at is the voice of cannonry,
The glad shouts Of the free;
This is day to me mory dear
IT'S Freedoms Jubilee"
Il wish that was now man,
Id fire my cannon too,
And cheer as loudly as The rest
But, father why don't you :"
'I'm getting old and weak-but still
My heart is big with joy;
I've witnessed many day like this
Shout you aloud my boy!'
"Hurrah for Freedoms Jubilee!
God bless my native land,
And may live to hold the sword
Of Freedom in my hand -
DWELL done, my boy-grow up and love
The land that gave you birth,
A home where Freedom loves TO dwell
In paradise on earth"

Two Laws for the Ladies.

|. Before YOU bow TO a lady in the
street, permit her TO decide whether you
may DO SO or not, by at least look OF rec
ogniliOn.
2. When your companion bows TO Ia
dy, you should do the same. When gem
tleman bows to a lady in your company,
always bow 10 him in return.
Nothing is so i'll understood in Amerl.
ca, as those conventional laws of society,
SO well understood and practiced in Euro
pc. Ladies complain that gentlemen pass
them by in the streets unnotlced, when,n
fact, arises from their own breach OF pO-
iileness. 1t is their duty TO do the anna
BILE first, for it is privilege which ladies
enjoy Of choosing their own associates or
acquaintances. No gentleman likes TO risk
the being cut in the streets by a lady thro'
a premature salute. Too many ladies', il
would seem, don't know their trade of
poItcness. Meeting ladies' in the streets,
whom one has casually met in company,
they seldom bow unless he BOWS iirStand
when a gentleman never departs from the
rule of good-breedIng, except occasionally
by way of experiment, his aaqualnances
do not multiply, but he stands probably
charged with rudeness. The rule is plain
A lady must be civil TO gentleman in
whose company she is casually brought;
but a gentleman is not upon this TO pre-
sumo upon acquaintanceshlp the first tine
| bn oGtnrwarls meets her i'm the street. l..
it be her will, she gives some token OF rec
ognrion, when the gentleman may bow {;
otherwise, he must pass on, and consider
himself stranger. No lady need hesitate
to bow to a gentleman, for lie will prompt
ly and politely ans wer, even if he has for
Gotteu bis fair saluler None but brute
can DO olherw;se-should he pass on rude
IIy, his character is declared, and there Is
cheap radiance. PoIlteness, or good,
breeding, is like law-"the reason OF
things"

A SPuSKY WIFE.-A midde-aged far.
mer and his wife were enjoying winter
evening costly together, when the conyer-
sation turned upon religious matters ,as de-
scr bed in the Bible, which lhe man open
ed before.
Wife, said the farmer, I've been a
thinking what happy society Solomon
must have had in his day, with so many
wives, &C., as is here sepresented."
"Iudeed," replied the wife, somewhat
mned "you had better think Of some
thing else then. A pretty Solomon You
would make, Truly ; you can't take proper
care Of one wife. What figure you would
cut. then, with dozen wives, and all OF
them as spunky as | am!'

BALLOON ASCENSION ON HoRsEBAcK.--
Prof Elliott, Of Baltimore, made Balloon
ascension from the city Of ST. Louis, on
Monday last, on horseback. The Repub-
lican says:
Agreeable 10 announcement, Prof. FL
Iiot made his aerial voyage on horseback.
The ground inside OF the enclosure was
thronged with ladies' and gentlemen,t 10 wit
ness his perilous voyage; while outside,
the numbers could only be enumerated by
thousands. There were many who
thought the "horse" would not 20 up;
but, true TO The appointed time, he was
harnessed to the Grial car, aud at given
signal, with Prof. Elliott on his back, of
they went into the regions of air. The
horse behaved himself most admirably,
and looked around and down upon the
earth apparently in The most perfect as
tonishment. His hoofs never for mo-
ment "clawed the air." but he coniented
himself b7 gazing, in most perfect horse
wonder, al the peculiar situation Of things.
Prof. Elliott seemed as much al home
upon his charger as if he were upon a
macademized road. AS far as the eye
could reach, both horse and rider seemed
to be getting along quietly but safely.
This rs the first balloon ascension on
horseback, we believe, ever attempted in
America, and in the science OF Uronauis
St. Louis ranks as the Paris Of the CONT
nent.
Last evening, we understand that tho
officers OF the steamer Keystone, which
arrived between eight and nine O'Clock,
saw the balloon and horse coming down
IN the immediate vicinity Of the mouth Of
tie Missouri river, and from all appear
ances made safe landing.

The DEAD Come TO LhFE-RCmGr-
| kabie Occurrences "A circumstance Of a
somewhat extraordinary character, occur
red short time since in one OF the flour
fishing towns Of the Midland counties.
A clergyman died, and his mother and sis
lers, on the third day after his decease, re-
collecting that no likeness remained Of the
once cherished son and brother, it was
agreed, ere the grave closed over him, that
The body should be unshrouded and
portrait taken. A young lady of some
professional celebrity, was engaged for the
task. She, with the assistance of the at
lendant, took off the shrOud, and placed
the body in the requisite posture; but 9th
er duties requiring the artists attention,
the sketch was deferred I'LL noon. About
~ O clock, at the foot Of the bed, the la
dy commenced and went through an
hours work on the image Of death. At
this stage of The proceedings, by some un-
accountable motion, the head of the death
like figure fell on the side. Nothing
daunted, The artist carefully took the head
to replace it, when 10 the eyes opened,
and staring her full in ;he face, 1.-The dead
inquired, "Who are you ~ The young
"prolessional," without rePidatlon, took
the bandage from the head and rubbed his
neck. lie Immediately saw the shIoud,
and laughed immoderately. The artist
quietly called the family; their joy may
be imagined, bu, cannot be described.
That evening, he who had lain three days
in his shrcul, bemoaned by mothers and
sisters with agonlzlng tears, begIaddened
their hearts by taking his accustomed
place at their tea-laOle, and dt this mo-
ment is making an excursion TO North
