Politlcal sola,ersets.

"Wheel about and turn about and do just SO,
And every time you wheel about jump Jim
Crow"
The Journal reminds us very much
of the game called "Thimble Rigging"
The performer takes three thimbles and a
small ball, and while rolling the ball, first
under one thimble and then under another,
discourses in this wise: "Now you see it,
and now you don't see it; and now I'll
bet any man quarter he can't tell where
the little joker is."
1t is just so with the Journal; one week
you see it, and the next week you don't
see it, and you may safely bet your head
that you can't tell, till you do see it, what
its politics is going to be.
One week the editor grows indignant
because we charge that he edited Know
Nothing paper in Pennsylvania, and de-
nies it most emphatieally; we prove it on
him, and the next week he virtually ac-
knowledges it, and treats it as good joke.
One week he has nothing to do with the
Know Nothings," and offers US $40 to
prove he is one; in the same paper he re-
fuses to vote for Fillmore on the ground
That he is not good enough Know No
thing for him. In one part of his paper
he proposes to publish column or two
of German for the benefit of foreigners;
in another part he publishes and endorses
a Know Nothing platform. He claims to
be pre-eminently Know Nothing because
he was zone of the Old Guard of '44;"
and yet the Know Nothing party, at its
District Convention, nominates candi-
date for Congress and for Judge, and he
is as silent about the candidates and Con-
vention as if he was wholly ignorant that
any such things existed.
"His humor
Is nothing but mutation. Ay and that
From one bad thing to worse"

crime-no matter how clear and strong
the evidence against him, turn him loose
to prey upon society and here is so much
money, but if you do not turn him loose,
then you shall not have your salary"
In the name of Heaven, what security
has man in court where Congress ex-
ercises such tyranny as this? Of what
use are courts if Congress is to dictate
acquittals and convictions for them, not
upon the ground of guilt or innocense of
the prisoner, but upon the ground of his
politics. IF he is an Abolitionist, and
violates laws because they were passed by
a Legislature opposed to him in politics,
if he incites insurrection, if he rescues
prisoners from officers and kills the Off
GERS in the attempt, disregard your oath,
turn him out and tell him Congress sane
tions and encourages such conduct, and
here's your money; but if you do not per-
jure yourself you forfeit your salary.
What safety is there with the govern
ment in the hands of these fanatics run
mad ? They howl and shrek for freedom,
and at the same time pass acts that would
cost any monarch of Europe his head.
Will the people endorse such tyranny !?

at the Same moment his arm, which was
slowly rising, became rigid rs: that of a
statue-the pistol he held exploded, and
the gambler fell back corpse upon the car

could interfere, that we stood as if almos:
paralyzed for an instant, while the servants,
alarmed by the noise, and the police, came
rushing into the apartment. ~.
Thorn quietly surrendered himself, mere
ly turning to us and the other two who
were in the room, saying, as he did So,
Gentlemen, bear witness fired in self de.

watch with smile, and turning, left the
room with the officers.
He was tried and acquitted, as it was
clearly proved that his advel sary fred upon

a notorious rascal, whom the community
could well afford TO spare, might have had
some Influence with The jury. rs

recollection of that fearful scene is vet fresh
and vivid in my mind, though many years
have passed since it was enacted. .-,..

FoLLowINe, THE LoRp.--Aus itinerant
preacher recently travelled among the
northwestern counties of this State. He
was mounted on an animal whose appear
ance betokened very bad keeping 1.-The
mere frame work Of what had once been a
horse. Riding up to the door of country
inn, he inquired Of the landlord the distance
to the next town. The host coming out
was so fcrcibly struck with the appearance
of the animal upon which the ouerst sat,
that he walked around him twice before
giving the desired information. He then
inquired:
"Who might you be, if it's fair ques.

answer9 .,,z.. 4
"Follorin' the Lord, ehl" demanded the
host. swell, I'll tell you what it is, old
feller," eyeng the horse again, 'lhere's one
thing sartin-ef you stop on the road, you'll

CURRANT BusHEs.-The currant bush
is everywhere cultivated, or rather, perhaps,
suffered to grow, no pains being taken, as
a general thing, to improve the appearance
of the bush, or the quality of the fruit. The
mode OF training now most frequently re-
commended is TO keep them in the form of
trees, with clean stem OF one or two feet
high, surmounted by round branching
head. lfgrown in this way, the annual
shoots should be shortened in, and the su-
perfluous limbs thinned out. This. renders
it ornamental, and conduces to the greater
size and excellence of the fruit. When filled
with scarlet, purple, or white berries, the
appearance is quite pleasing.
