HAIRLESS majority.


But as the counties remaining TO be heard from
have doubtless made some gains, we think the ma
iority for Gen. Harris win exceed 800.
For the first time, too, since the division of part
les in 1885, each section of the State has given
Democratic majority. Our majority in East Ten
nessee is about 700; in Middle Tennessee about
800; and in West Tennessee about 2, 100.
This win do very well but we have not doubt
that ifthere had been full vote-if we could have
succeeded in srousing or alarming our political
frends-the majority might have been twenty thous-
and.
In the Legislature, as we have before sisted, our
majority joint vote is tWenty-eleven in the SEN
ate and nine in the House. We ought to have car
ried the member from MeMinn, for it is Democrat
ic county. We lose several counties by very small
mAiOrities; but as they are counties which gave
majOrities against us for Governor, say nothing
about them. Now that we know our strength, if the
Know NOthings keep up their organization, it is
doubtful if they next time elect dozen members.

A Baltimore paper gives the following
interesting particulars relating to the
present history of a distinguished Nor
mon !:
"The man Crowley--Matthias Crow
ley is his full title-stands about FIVE
feet six inches high, with a shock of
fame coloured hair between him and
heaven, and pair of dull red whiskers.
He is thirty-seven years of age, and has
ten wives in Utah, wsom he left behind
him He is verj prosperous in his
worldly affairs. Among bis crops last
year were eight children, four colts,
eighteen calves, about eighty lambs. six
hundred bushels Of yellow corn, four
hundred bushels Of wheat, besides a large
quantity of esculent roots, &c, &c. Ac-
cording to the opinion of those conver-
SAINT with the matter, he has received
from his converts, in cash, the sum Of
$4,000 to 100000, of which he, or the
church, will pocket at least $4,000.

A gossipping club is said to have been
formed down East for the purpose of
more effectually ascertaining the business
of other people generally. 1t already has
attained large membership, and promis-
es to become fourishing institution. .-
The following are some of its rules:
Any member of the society who shall
be convicted ct knowing more of his own
business than another's, shall be expelled
from the society without hearing.
No member shall sit down to his own
table, until he has ascertained to a cer-
tainty what his neighbors, within three
doors of each side of his house, shall have
to eat--whether they have paid for the
same, and if not, if they expect to.
Every member who shall see two or
three persons engaged in conversation,
shall place himself between them until he
has heard all they have to say, and report
the same accordingly.
Every member who shall see gentle
man visiting young lady more than
twice, shall circulate the news that they
are going to be married, and said men,
bers are sequired to report all manner of
things about the gentleman to the lady
and ditto about the lady to the gsntle-
man This will break up matches and
afford much gossip.

Grow Beautiful.

Persons may outgrow disease, and be-
come healthy, by proper attention to the
laws of their physical constitutions. By
moderate and daily exercise, men may be-
come active and strong in limb and mus
Gle. But to grow beautiful, how2 Ages
dim the lustre of the eye, and pales the
roses on beauty's cheek, while crow feet
and burrows, and wrinkles, and lost teeth,
and grey hairs, and bald head, and totter-
ing limbs, and limping feet, most sadly
mar the human form divine. But dim as
the eye is, as paid and sunkcn as may be
thc face of beauty, and frail and feeble
that once strong, erect and manly body,
the immortal soul, just Hedging its wings
for its home in heaven, may leok out
through these faded windows as beautiful
as the dew drops Of summers morning,
as melting as the tear that glistens in af-
fection's eye-by growing kindly, by cul-
tivating sympathy with all human kind !;
by cherishing forbearanc: towards
the fobles and folies Of our race, and
feeding day by day on that loue to God
and man which lifts us from the brute,
and makes us akin to the angels.

Quite n Mistake.

The Baltimore Republican tells story
of a young man who fell in love with a
young lady residing in one Of the resi-
dences of Upper Tendon The lover,
fearing a repulse from the head of the
family, conducted his courtship in a
clandestine manner, The upshot of the
matter was, that an elopemcnt occurred,
and the parties were married. After the
marriage, the bridegroom proposed that
they should return home and procure the
fathers pardon. Judge, then, of his
dismay when, with a trembling voice,
she informed him that, although she pos
sessed the name of the gentleman in
question, she was not related to him in
the slightest degree, and was employed
in his dwelling in the capacity Of seam
stress. Thus all his visions of secured
fortune were scattered to the winds and
the scene of recrimination which oc-
Cured was terribly out of character for
A newly married couple.

A Model Report.

The following letter was recently re-
ceived by the President from pro tenn.
Postmaster out West. 1t is a model in
its way; and We should not wonder, ifthe
report is true, that it has pleased Mr..
Buchanan so much that he booked the
writer's name for good Office:
CRAWFORD COUNTY, Mo-,
April 80, 1857.
Mr.. BUCuANAN-Dear Sir:--Mr.-
is the Postmaster at this place, and he is
gone out west, and has been gone for
three or four weeks, and he has no depu-
ty here, but have been opening the
mails and attending to it since he has
gone, as he left the key with me, and the
Postmaster told me that I must make a
report at the end Of every month, and did
not tell me who l was to write to, but |
suppose it is to You we should make our
reports, as we are all citizens of the gov
ernment of which you are now President.
IF you are not the right one to receive
the report to. and will write again.
Report at tie end Of April.-The wea-
ther is cold for the season-provisions
scarce and very high-but notwithstand-.
ing all that, we have regular mails once a
week, good health, and the p.ople of this
country are universally pleased with your
administration; this is all l know that
would interest you; if there is anything
omitted in my report please let me know.
My best respects to you and Mrs. Bu-
chanan.

to put one of the boxes to the test
Accordingly, spot was selected, the box

An intelligent 1rishman, in the employ
Of firm in Milk street, was sent few
DAYS since to bank in State street for
the purpose of obtaining sum OF money
on a check The money was passed to
the Irishman, who did not count it until
he was in the street, when he discovered
that he had a $40 bill too much. Actuated
by desire that did honor to his head
and heart, he returned to the bank and
accosted the teller:
ats mistake you have made in giv-
ing ME the money, sure he said
ave make no mistakes" hautily re-
Piled the teller: "if your money is not
correct, you should have spoken before
you left the bank"
"And you won't correct it?' asked
Pat, with dolsful look.
"No sir; stand one side"
"Then it's meself that is to say that
I've got twenty dollars too much, and
long life to such tellers in gineral."
Pat was allowed to keep the anountby
his employers, and now when he goes to
the bank his money is counted twice for
fear of mistakes. Boston Herald

Advice 10 Young Ladies,

l think it is a safe rule for every young
lady to adopt-nevsr to lay herself under
pecuniary bligation to an unmarried
man, not connected with her by the ties
of blood or family, for anb gift whatever,
except the fitting, appropriate and emble-
matte one, Of a boquet Of flowers. What
ever may be the relations of the parties
to each other at the time Of giving and
receiving the present, circumstances may
subsequently occur which will make it
extremely awkward and unpleasant for
the lady toremain under such obligations,
and equally impossible for her to cancel
the obligation in that way. Indeed |
think lady of native refinement, deli
cacy and proper self-respect, will always
be unwilling to incur pecuniary indebt-
ednoss under any circumstance, and the
consciousness of being deeply indebted to
other than near and dear friend, for
any gift of favor is never agreeable.
