We have probably all of US met with
Instances in which word heedlessly spo-
ken against the reputation of female has
been magnified by malicious minds until
ibe cloud has become dark enough to O.
yer-shadow her whole existence. To
those who are accustomed-not necessa-
rily from bad motives, but from thought
lcsspcss speak lightly of fe males, We
recommend the following "biuts" as wor.
shy of consideration -
"Nerer use lady's name in an i'm
proper place, at an improper time, or in
mixed company. Never make assertions
about her that you think are untrue, or
allusions that you feel she herself would
blush to hear When you meet with
men who do not seruple to make use of a
xemaus name in reckless and unprinci-
pied msner, shuu them for they are the
very worst members of the community
men lost to every sense of honor--eve-
~ feeling of humanity Many good
and worthy woman's character has been
forever ruined and her heart broken by
. lie manufactured by some villain and
reported where it should not have been,
and in the presence of those whose little
judgment could not deter them from cir.
cuiatipg the foul and Dragging report. A
slsuder is soon propag ated, and the small
lest ching derogatory to woman's charac-
Ger, will fy on the wings of the wind, and
magnify as it circulates, until its mon
strous weight crushes the poor unconscious
victim. Respect the name of woman, and
and ne you would have their fair name
uptsrnished, and their lives unembittered

A Tough Storm Story.

The Peru Ill.) Chronicle, of the 7th ult.,
learns from farmer who resides on the South
side of the Illinois River, on the Bluff, some
particulars Of the storm of the 10th ult-His
cattle, thought they were inclOsed il circle
of straw siacks and hay stacks. were so much
affected by the driving blast that they refused
to eat. The snow was driven between their
hairs, aud coming in contact with the skin,
was for momSnt melted, then frozen, until
the whole covering of animal seemed one
unbroken armor of ice. which did not disap-
pear on many for four days after. The snow
melting on their foreheads and running down,
formed huge icicles that passed down over
the face, and reached far below the nose,giy-
ing them the appearance of the beast with
the ten horns-in many instances the broad
sheet of ice falling over the eyes, blindfolded
them effectu:lly. Their nostrils were filled
with frozen snow that had been driven into
them by the violence of the wind The quai.s
that had gathered about his barDyard, as a
last resort, were frozen to death. Prairie chick
ems were either frozen to death or so benum-
bed that he could take them with his hands
as they sat on the fence, sleeping with stupor.
His barn.yard chickens were many OF them
frozen, and, what is singular, in nearly every
case they were found with their bills wide
! apart as they could be sundered, and the
mouth filled with solid ice. He has driven
/ his teams and cattle over his fences, the snow
being on level with them, and go compact

Rev. d. V. Mclean, of Easton, Penn,
delivered lecture in Trenton, on Mon
day evening, February 10Th ult., in which
he stated that New Jersey, with popu-
lation of 500, 900, has not over 200 young
men in course of college training, Penn
sylvania not over TOO. Also, that not
withstanding the prevalent belief that SO
many young men are ruined at college,
the figures show that not more than one
in fifteen of college students are thus ru.
ined, while one in four of those who en-
gage in mercantile pursuits in our cities
is lost, thus proving, that though some
students at college turned out badly, and
disappoint the hopes of their parents, ye,
it is far safer to send young men to q
we'll conducted literary institution, than
to the temptations of a city life

our feelings quite like the following
The Printers Love.
We lore to see the blooming rose,
In all iis beauty drest,
We love TO hear our friends disclose
The emotions of the bre ast,
We love to see the ship arrive
Well laden to our shore:
We love to sec our neighbcrs thrive.
Aod love 10 bless the poor,
We love 10 see domestic life.
With uninterrupted joys;
We love 10 see happy wife,
With lots OF girls and boys.
We love ali these-yet far above
AL that We ever said,
We love what every printer loves,
To HAVE SUBSCRIPTIONS PAID.
Any delinquent subscriber who can resist
an appeal like the above, surely must have
The heart Of q brick-oat and the soul of
Rrind-s,one. Lest there be any such, how
ever, totally Indifferent to the printers Tore,
We add the following verses of naledicfion:
And may the wicked who refuse
To pay the printers bin,
Be forced TO travel without shoes,
Right up hinty hill
Aad never MAJ they larn about,
Or sit down on a rail,
Until the money they shell out
And send il on by mall
