We pay no attention to Communications,
unless the writer's names accompany them.
If the authors of the above pieces will send
US their names, we will examine them, and if
approved, will publish.
''The Love of Home" is not original. If
it was sent as a selection it might debut to
send out a sterling old piece like this with W.
NJ. SIS name to il, would be rather too open
faced a piece of plagiarism.
DaS- The subscription year Of a large
number of our subscribers expire about the
present time, and we are very anxious for
them to renew. Will not the Postms ster, or
some friend at each Post Office, have the
kindness to try and get all our present sub
scribers to renew, and also add some new
names to our list? We will be very grateful
for such an act Of kindness. It Will afford
as pleasure to furnish any one disposed to
act in this capacity, with a list of our sub
scribers at their respective Offices, SO thai
> they may know to whom to apply.
By the way, this would be a good plan to
: keep up our list and we hope SOM friend a
each Post Office to which our paper goes, viii
: get q list of the subscribers receiving theii
9 papers there, and as their terms expire, cal
! upon them for renewal and when occasion
offers, add new names to the list. BY thi
means many would be induced to c%ontinu,
their subscriptions, who 10Y from remiss
! ness or procrastination, fail to renew. Com
friends and help us out. Some 500 ought t
have renewed with the commencement
a this month, who have not done SO yet. The
: can be procured again. We can't afford
lose them.

CoRREc TIoN.-In the publication of the
Grand Worthy Patriarch's Report last week,
two errors occurred, viz: For more nominal
cost in speaking of new Ritual, read meer
nominal, &c. In the paragraph concerning
the Spirit of the Age, instead of 'the most
powerful instrumentality in the salvation of
men from the course Of intemperance, IN all
which we ara associated" &C.; it should
read, "to do which we are associated" 60.

There is no telling what one drinks when
he thinks he is drinking wine Of the best
quality. As an instance some spurious wines
of Oporto were recently seized by the Portu-
guese Government, which were made of mo-
~lasses, alcohol and some colored substance.
Thousands Of pipes of this mixture have here
tofore been sent to England, to the Continent
and elsewhere. Some wine lately confsca-
ted in Paris was made of water, alum and
elder berries.
So says an exchange /; and it is incontes-
tibly proven, that more subtle and deadly
poisons are the chief Ingredients Of the bran
dies, whiskey, &C., Manufactured nowadays.
While we were in Asheville, a few weeks
since, q man partook of a single drink of
whiskey at a liquor hole. In some five
minutes he was Frustrated and would have
died in a few moments, had not a physician
succeeded in extracting the stuff from his
stomach. We understood that the Doctor
pronounced it a clear case of ~strichnine pois-
on. There are hundreds of such cases oe-
curing, but the warning is little heeded.-
1t seems that men will drink, although they
know that poi son and the devil are both in
the cup.

Increase Of Crime.

A large number of the journals of the day
are at present noticing the fearful increase
Of crime in the land, and are Specializing on
causes that have probably brought about
alarming state Of things. Many reasons
are assigned, prominent among which is the
disgusting practice with many journals. of
spreading before their readers the sickening
and d~emoralizing details of the murders, the
suicides, the seductions, the e~lopements, &c.
that are constantly occurring, until it has
come to pass that a modest woman can scarce
ly pick up one Of our city dailies, without
having the blush %suffuse her cheek at the
p~rurient details that meet her eye And to
this cause is alleged the reason why manly
honor and womanly virtue sell go cheaply
and seem to be valued so lightly. If so
where lies the remedy? How shall this stat
Of things be corrected :
To our mind, the only remedy is in tb
hands Of the people themselves. IF ever,
mora, upright citizen-every head of famil
would refuse to support or encourage ever
paper that publishes articles which it woul
not allow a visitor around their social cirel
to discourse upon, these miserable, vulgarrty
retailing seavengers would shrink from b
fore the gaze Of a v~irtuous public, as darknel
before the light of day. Let it be tried /; an
whether the end is accomplished or not, IL
family circle where only pure l~iteratui
and reading is introduced, win remain u
contaminated, while the less prudent al
careful win reap with sorrow and bitterne
the fruits of their folly.

She who knew her love was buried with the
dead; and she was a perjured sooman, be-
side her husband! o, fearful indeed is
that passion, and closed to every womanly
feeling Of truth and honor, is that heart
that dares to trife, in an hour like this ;
when before high heaven, and angels and
men, the solemn word is spoken which seals
forever their earthly bliss or woe, and unites
two hearts never to be severed, till the
grim angel of DEATH a swift messenger Of
the Great I AM bears away on its shad.
owy wings one Of the united ones.
The eyre to which her eagle ambition
had scared was gained; and from its giddy
height she would look down and see hel
