people who rewilIiug to become moral ban

the hand which has caused the ruin, and

" Sir" said she, boiling with indignation,
" myself aud husband are very poor ner.

sir, we are not SO poor but we can do our

their property, but he can't deprive them Of
the privilege Of Kissing" Eimira Gazette.
A GENTLEMAN returned to Albany recent
