Rev. +. II. Chaplin, in his lecture before the
Mercantile Library Association, upon practical
Life" hit off one Of tho popular vices uf society
-lying-in q very effective manner, as appears
from q report in the Traveller, from which we copy
u couple of paragraphs
lilies of action are blood relation to lies of
speech, and moral lies constitute a small share
Of the falsehoods in the world. There are lies of
C lstom and lies Of fashion; lies of padding and lies
Of whalebone; lies of the first water in diamond
of paste, and unblushing bushes Of lies to which
a shower would give quite n different complexion;
the politicians lies, who, like a circus rider, strides
two horses at once; the coquette's lies, like q pro-
fessor of le~gerdemain, keeps six plates dancing Mt

livery behind republican coaches, in all the pomp
Of gold band and buttons; lies Of red tape and seal

SINGULAR DISCOVERY IN VIRGINIA.

A letter in the Greenbrier Era, from Coyington,
Allegheny, states that the workmen on the Central
Railroad, in that vicinity, about the last of Janua-
ry, cut into a large opening in the earth, which
was found to extend directly toward the river. On
exploring the cave for a considerable distance they
came to a large chamber, in which was discovered
something, which, on close examination, proved to
be a dead man. He had by his side a full hunts.
mans equipment. He was found in the position
of q man sleeping, and what is remarkable, he had
not decomposed, but seemed TO have gone through
a process of drying, and would crumble to pieces
when touched, like dry dirt. One of the party
took hold of one foot, and almost as quick as
thought, it left the leg. They did not disturb tAe
corpse any further, and proceeded ON their Jour
ney. In a few minutes they discovered daylight,
which was found to proceed from a hole or cave on
the north side of the river, which had never been
penetrated by any person to our knowledge. They
came out and crossed the river on the bridge.
On the following day, somo ten or twelve Of the
neighbors entered the cave through the same open
ing that the former party had come out, and pro-
ceeded directly to the dead man, and upon close
examination. they found a pocket book containing
bat no money. Among the papers are
seven bonds, some for large amounts; one for
$500, dated in the year 1923; some others are da-
ted 1926; all of which were given or signed by old
settlers of this and Bath county, and il the cir
cumstanees under which the bonds have been kept

no doubt 1t will, some Of our very worthy men

ces, as they will be held responsible for the bonds

The Future. How pregnant with good or evil;
with veal or woe. How uncertain, yet how anx-
iously looked for. how hopefully expected, how ar
IDENTIFY longed for. The past with its realizations
and disappoiutments its JOY and sorrows, its bright.
ness and glooms, has forever passed away. To the
eternal future, are we ever looking for the re
d~emption Of mankind from the enthrallment of ig
norance, for the abolition of al; wrong for the ad
vent of the rule of right. May we so labor in the
field Of reform with fearless hearts, with earnest
purpose, with energy of soul that our bright fore
sbadowings be no dissipation. May we work on
and ever faithfully, earnerly, hopefully, with a
firm reliance upon the power and Immortality Of
truth, knowing,
The m~ightiest souls Of all time hover DER US,
Who labored like Gods among men and have
gone,
Like great bursts Of sun on the dark way before us
They're with us, still with us, our battle fight
on,
Catching hope from the stray CLEANS of the future
sunlight, let Us believe
Theirs a Divinity within,
That makes men strong WIENER they will it.
God works within all who dare to win,
And the time cometh to receive it

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
DISHONESTY

One of our cotempararies, speaking Of that class
who subscribe tor newspapers and Fever pay for
them, and this though they may be protesting
Christiana, says: There is something wrong in
the widespread robbery of publishers by profess.
Christians, for we presume that few others take
religious papers. And there ought to be a remedy.
1t is downright dishonesty to fitch ones religious
reading and ought to he made o cause for disci-
pline, for no one who is mean enough to defraud
a publisher of the palry price demanded for a
paper, is tit to remain in the Church of God"
i find the above paragraph in the Presbyterian
u religious paper published IN the city of Philadel-
phia, by one of the most contented and selEsati6ed
Pharlseos in the land. No man can exclaim, with
moro JUNCTION than that editor-"God, thank thee
that l am not as other men are, extortioners un-
Just, adulterers, or even as this publican"
Ihis Pharisee discovers downright dishonesty
in the neglect of subscribers to pay" thirty pieces
(halfdimes) Of silver for his newspaper, and thinks
it ought to be made a matter Of Church discipline.
and yet the first article on the next page of that
paper is an abusive editorial noticel of Mr.. Ohm
sted's admirable book-"The Sea Board Slave
States"
This greedy Pharisee, who would discipline the
unfortunate man who neglected to paw him his
thirty half-dimes, ridicules and denoun-
ces every person who undertakes to EXPOSE the
evils and the weakness of that system which robs
the poor colored man, not of the pitiful thirty
pieces of silver merely, but of the earnings of his
whole llfe and not content even with that wide
spread robbery" as that just judge calls the non
payment of his dimes, but takes also the wife Of
his bosom, and his children and coins them into
gold.
Is 1T not most surprising. to see a man who
makes so light of the hardships and privations of
the colored race, and who so bitterly reviles the
anti,slavery men, publicly talking about d~isciplin-
ing Christians for the grave offence Of "flching
ones religious reading"
1t would be a spectacle worth seeing, to behold
that editor rising in his place, 10 the General As
sembly one day, to offer a resolution to make it a
disciplinary offence to fail to pay the thirty pieces
OF silver Tor the Presbyteridn-and mex. day oppo.
sing any attempt to discipline the "pyofessiinq
christian" who cheated the laborer not only1 of the
earnings of his life long toll, but also robbed him
of the wife of mis- bosom and the children of his
love. "
1t would be an experiment worth trying, to MS.
certain how many persons would sympathize with
this Pharisee, who is so very sensitive 10 his pocket.
while he acts the part Of a dumb dog" in relation
to the wide spread robbery" of the colored race,
by processing yes-peteSsing Christians.

CHANGE.

Change sweeps Ger all. Tho ancient columns
CULVER;
Through the rent chasm the exulting whirlpool
flows,
The rifted rocks mans magic thunders SILVER,
And Ger the desert steals the wandering rose.
The buried seed to perfect blossom springeth,
From its damp bed the lilly of the lake,
The acorn Ger the land broad shadow hingeth,
And song and wing the solemn groves awake.
Where erst the panier'd mule wentslowly creep.
The Flooding wheel its tardy message bore,
The iron-footed steeds like fame are sweeping,
And thought electric darts from shore to shore
His last sweet lay the wan musician drinketh.
The pencil fades, the artists eye grows dim,
The mighty statesman from the senate sinketh,
And cloquence in sackcloth mourns for him.
The tyrant Gear, who held his millions q~uaking,
Who stirr'd the nations with q warriors-tread
On his camp bed a pplseless sleep is taking,
Pale rs the serf that in his battles bled.
Change sweeps Ger all. In homes small orb il
worketh,
Clouds silver.linod grow dark with gushing rain
But prism'd on tears, a bow of promise lurketb,
The sun shines forth, and all is bright again.
Up comes the grading to his fathers stature
Down Ger his staff the man Of power
Implying Winter strips the pomp from nature,
And snow Ger beauty's ~lustrous locks decends.
To her first babe the joyous m other clingeth;
Another weepeth in a riied nest,
And to the graves cold casket, grudging. bringeth
The little diamod from her yearning breast.
But the redeemed soul hath no declension-
Tir'd sense may fail, the eye forget its FIRE,
The nerve be sevr'd in its 6rmest tension
The chainless spirit soareth toward its Sire,

OHIO LEGISLATURE,

Mr.. Brown Of Portage presented in the Senate
OF ONO on the 9th inst, the ~following preamble
and resolution which were unanimously adopted,
viz:
WHEREAS, q murder has recently been committed
upon the soil of Ohio, and whereas the murderers
have been arrested for said offence by the proper
officers Of our State, and whereas by civil process
issued by q Judge of the United States, said pris-
oners have been taken from the custody of our
officers and placed beyond the jurisdiction of our
laws for the punishment of murder, therefore for
the purpose Of ascertaining whether the State OF
Ohio a. a member of this confederacy has sufficient
sovereignty to punish the crime of murder, be it
ReSotted, That the committee on tho Judiciary
be requested to enquire what laws if any can be
passed to ena Die tho State OF Ohio to punish the
crime of murder.
Mr.. Brown said
MIR. PRESIDENT | am surprised that SO simule

the history OF this Republic the very hour has al.
arrived, when we are tamely TO sbmit to'an overshad.
owing central despotism or with brave hearts and

am now an here ready for the issue, and do not
desire a moments postponement. If, indeed, the
right Of property in man under the odious,
inhuman and damnable Fugitive Law is para.

it is tine that tile strength of paper obligations
we're tested.
The General Government has become under the
last two administrations, n mighty engine to crush
out the reserved sovereignty of free States. The
National Judiciary has under FILLMORE and PIERCE
become Il mere machine to register the edicts Of
the slave power. KANE the big JErrRIEs and
LEAvlIr the little JEFFrIEs of modern times play
their part in the crushing out" process with
wonderful facility. Despotism needs no more

dust. The last vestige of State rights is .annihila.

Is it come? they said on the banks of the Nile
Who look'd for the worlds long promise,
day,
And saw but the strife of Egypt's toll
With the deserts sands and the granite grey
From the pyramid temple, and treasured dead.
We vaiDly ask for her VISIONS plan
They tell US of the, slave and the tyrant'
dread
Yet there was hope whom that day began.
The Chaldee camo with his starry lore,
That built up Babylon's crown aud creed
And bricks were stamped on the Tigris' shore,
With signs which our sases scarce can read.
From N~inus'Temple and Nimrod's Tower.
The rule of the old East's empire spread
Unreasoning faith and unquestioned power
But still, is il come? the Watcher said.
The light of the Persian's worshiped fame,
~ ancient bondage its splendor;
And once on the West a sunrise came,
When Greece to her freedoms trust was true
With dreams to the utmost ages dear, .
With human gods and with god like men,
No marvel the far-off day seemed near
To eys that looked through her laurels then.
The Romans conquered, and revealed too,
Till honor and faith ana power were gone,
And deeper old Europe's darkness grew,
AS wave after wave the Goth came on.
The gown was learning, the sword was Law,
The people served in the oxen's stead
But ever some CLEAN the Watcher saw,
And evermore, is it come: they said.
Poet and Seer that question caught,
Above the din flife's fears and frets:
1t marched with lctters-it toiled with thought,
Through schools and creeds which the cart!
forgets,
And statesmen tride, and priests deceive,
And traders barter our world away
Yet hearts to that golden promise cleave,
And still, at times, is it come? they say.
TIT days of the nation bear no trace
Of all the sunshine % far foretold
The cannon speaks in the teachers place
The age is weary with work and gold.
And higher hopes wither and memories wane
On hearths and affairs the fires are dead
But that brave faith hath not lived in vain,
And this is all that our Watcher said.

Charles tho First, like many another king, as
well as more private individuals, was Frequently
hard up for hard cash. Amongst other devices to
raise the wind, he granted the exclusive privilege
to manufacture paper to certain persons for around
sum. The paper was stamped with the royal arms.
When King Charles head was cut of, the rump
parliament, for the fun of the thing, removed the
arms and substituted a fools cap and bells. Hence
foolscap paper.

DUST.

Dust we were, and dust to be,
Dust upon us, dust about
Dust on every thing we see;
Dust within us, dust without;
Saith the preacher-"Dust to Dust"
Let them mingle, Cor they must.
Dust we raise upon the road,
Dust we breathe IN 1ancing-hall;
Dust infests our a me abode,
Dust, a pail, is over all;
lis The housewives daily dread;
Dust, the emblem Of the dead.
When the sky above is fair,
And the sun above streams,
Floats the dust throughout the air;
Cleaning in its fallen beams,
Every mote is like a man,
Dancing gaily while he can.
Ere the tempest gathers strong,
Blows at times the warning gust,
Ger the plains it sweeps along,
Tempest's thrall q cloud of dust,
Every mote is like a man,
Flying from cpression's van.
Now the swollen clouds grow dark,
Comes the long expected flood,
Falling d~eluge-like and stark
Dust is beaten down to mud:
81 are times when men must grovel.
In the palace as the Lovel.
Thus we are but notes oe dust
On the ground and in the air,
Blown by pleasure, fear and lust,
Beaten down to low despair.
Born of dust to come to dust;
Let us mingle, for we must;
