To Housekeepers and farmers at the
West

1t has long been the greatest COM
plant with housekeepers at the West,
that sufficient female help could not be
obtained. There are now in our city
thousands of industrious, sober girls, of
good character, who are thrown entirely
out of employment. Many of these are
DESTROYS of going TO the West, and be-
coming house ervants or domestics.
The difficulty has hitherto been, to
find some responsible medium to connect
those without work and those wanting
woIk done. The Chilaren's did Society
has observation-disclosures the effort is
somewhat out of its usual ield-to at
tempt during this season TO connect this
supply and demand. To do this, and TO
aid these thousands of poor girls. the
West must also lend a hand. They must
not expect well-trained servants in these
girls, as they are not accustomed 10
house labor; still they are willing and
able to learn, and only need patience
and kindness. Every allowance should
be made for mistakes and delays in the
beginning of such an enterprise. Those
applying must send fares as far as they
are able; in all cases the Society will re
turn the money, if no girl is found to
answer in general the description for
warded. Let no: that, which is said TO
have broken down all previous enterpri-
ses Of this kind, ruin this-the utter neg
lect of the West to give a helping hand.
1t is an effort to benefit both sides; the
unemployed here. and the families
there.
All letters must be addressed 10
''Branch Office, CAildren's Aid Society.
Clinton AH. New York"
The applications enclosing fares will
always be attended to first. There will
be an understanding. and, if possible. a
written agreement with each girl that
her fare is 10 be deducted from her wa
ges.
Parties applying will state exactly
their wants, the wages offered, their
Town. County and State. and the cheap
est and best way of reaching the place
References from the clergyman. magis-
traie, OF other responsible persons of the
town will in all cases be demanded. Il
will be the earnest endeavor of the Soci-
ETY. TO send out one but girls with good
references, and who are represented to he
of good character.

November.

How silently has the sun stolen south
ward, looking in now at windows, and
casting lis warm beams upon carnets
that were unhlest with his smiles all day
long. The gorgeous drapery of the for
est has gone, and The naples and wal
nuts no more flame in gaudy red and
yelloS. Here and there only an oak,
tenacious of is russell leaves, reminds US
that the foliage has had its reign, and
summer is ended. The leaves lie scat
tered through the forests, and by the
road side, and give back a lonely sound
to the tread of the hunter. The nuts
have been gathered, or lie scattered
among the burrs and shells. The blithe
squirrel with tail erect, and comfortable
memory of his winter boards, banks
cheerily among the boughs. His knot
hole in the hollow chestnut. or oak, is
his castle, and t!lilher he retreats when
The dogs pursue hin.
The long evenings have come, and
gathered around the blazing hearth, with
wife and children, the farmer may en-
Joy life. He has cultivated his acres
diligently. and he may now cultivate his
mind and heart. He has lis journals
and books, and can read account Of
horticultural and agricultural exhibitions
such as he has o been able to visit
He can read up the political speeches
that we're necessarily laid aside during
the harvesting of corr and potatoes. He
can turn from the present 20 the past,
and study the history of former genera
tions.
November is 10 us one of the most en-
joyable months of the year. The fine
braclng air, neither too hot nor too cold,
gives a zest TO ell lsbors and pleasures.
The storms of The wild equinox are over,
and those OF winter have not yet com.
menced. The beautiful soft haze of the
Indian summer robes the distant hills
and throws en- air OF enchantment about
every prospect
But in the few sour and stormy days
that come we have a foretaste of what
is in store for US. The sun grows lower
| in the southern horizon, and can not
much longer with stand the onward
march OF winter. Let his departing
smile admonish us.

Gov. Chase in Massachusetts

Col. Schouler, of the State Journal.
who is absent in Massachusetts, on bust
ness, writes home under date Of the 9Th
inst, an account of an interesting Jubilee
held by The Republicans of Worcester,
at which he was present and participated.
He says:
Last evening Mr.. Banks, Governor
elect. came up from Bostoa and deliver
ed a Lyceum Address. He was accom-
panied by Mr.. ~BurlIngame In the mean
time the Republicans had prepared a COL
lation at the Lincon House, where | have
been staying. About nine o'clock one
hundred sat down at the tables; Judge
Allen, formerly memb.r OF Congress.
presided. After partaking of the good
things, speeches were made by Judge
Allen, Mr.. Banks, Mr.. Burlingame and
others. One toast was given. compli-
mentary to Ohio. and the Republican
leader, Salmon ?. Chase. 1t was pre-
faced by a short but eloquent speech by
Jude Allen; the speech and sentiment
were received with vocilerous applause.
L MADE a snort response III behait o.
Ohio and her worthy Governor. The
time passed pleasantly until 10 o'clock,
when the meeting broke up in good
cheer.
Wherever l have been among the Re-
publicans, the name of Gov. Chase has
been received with great favor. Mr.
Hamlin. Of Maine, in his speech in Dos
ton. and Mr.. Buringame. at Fanueil
Hall. both referred to him in high terms,
and the applause on each occasion was
deafrning. His name is a tower Of
strength to the Republican cause.

SERIOUS AFFAIR We learn that Z
serious affair occurred at New Whining
ton. on Friday night last, the 9Th inst.
which il was at first feared would result
in the death of one OF the college stu
dents. Ii We are correctly informed.
SAYS the COurant, several of the students
had been acting rather disorderly during
the evening, and among other impropri-
cites, amused themselves in throwing at
the sign of a shoemaker, Mr.. Cummings,
who had demonstrated sgainst their con
duet; but on their returning about IL
o'clock, he took up a gun containing a
heavy load of large shot, and pointing
it out OF the window, fired at random
the contents Of which lodged in the right
hip Of a young man named George
M'Nary, son of Mrs. Joseph M'Nary,
of ~Cannonsburg. He fell to the ground,
and was unable 10 raise, and was carried
home by his companions and others
Medical attendance was Immediately
called; and We understand that hopes
are now entertained of his recovery,
although he will propably be a cripple
for life. The next morning, we learn,
Cummings came and acknowledged he
had fred the gun. and after a hearing
before a proper officer, was bound over
in the sum of 81, 500, to answer at the
next term of the court of Lawrence
county.-New Castle Journal.
