g- RETURN J. NJ WARD who killed
his wife, and afterwards burned her body,
in Toledo, Ohio, was executed on the 12th
inst, at that place. He confessed TO his
counsel that the murder was premedita-
ted, and that he had previously killed two
other persons, one a merchant by the
name of HALL, who was on the eve OF
starting east with large sum Of money,
and the other pedlar whe stopped al
night at tavern which WARD was at the
time keeping, in the interior of Ohio
Upon the scafold, however, the wretched
man denied the truth of this confession
and insisted that the crime upon which
he was convicted was the first of which
he had been guilty. He was much agi
tated upon the scaffold, and talked YER,
incohcrently.

How AMERICA WAS PEoPLED.-Rev.
DR.. Hawks, a learned and eloquent schol-
ar, has recently been delivering series OF
lectures, intended to show that this con-
tinent was peoplcd by successive migra-
tons from the old world, at different eras
and by different races. First from the
shores of the Mediterranean, which was
the Garlic St of commercial enterprise, and
the people from which have left their rec
ord upon the vast ruins of Yucatan next
from China and Japan to Mexico, Central
and South America and next from Nor
thern Asia, from which the American
tribes of Indians came. These theories
are sustained by remarkable analogies be-
tween the languages prevailing in differ
ent parts of the Eastern continent with
those to be found on this continent.

E A proclamation has been issue

GE- A proclamation has been issued,
we observe, by the County Judge, for re-
scinding the late vote in favor of the
Wapsipincon d St. Peters Valley Rail
road, the election TO be holden on the
day of the regular August election. We
have no time the present week to com
ment upon this matter, but shall endeav-
or to point out, in future article, some OF
tie influences which Lave brought this
about. That there are men in the coun
ty who oppose the loan through honest
motives we feel we'll satisfied, but we feel
equally as well satisfied that there are a
few prominent opposers of tie project
who do not act in the matter either from
speak of these gentlemen plainly, and en-,
deavor to exhibit to the people of this
county about the amount Of regard they
have for. the county's interests. We do not
know that any Illegally in the former vote
was complained of, or that any one de-
MES that the previous result is the fairly
expressed wish of the majority. 1t was,
however, too good a card for some politi-
clans to lose, and they have determined
to play it. Well see who wins.
From another proclamation, which we
find in the Cicilion, we find that Jud oe
RoszELL considers that the law in relation
TO submitting the License Question to the
people has been substantially complied
with. (no thanks to his bungling. howev-
er J, and that therefore the License Law is
the law in this county.

TRAY THOU GIFTS.

Did you ever know what ii is TO love q
tree or flower with peculiar tenderness,
not for its own beauty merely, but because
it is linked to names you love % 1t
may be but scraggy and scrawny shrub,
yet to tie heart it is dear and beautiful
for memory's sake. Can there be any
monitor more touchingly expressive than
faded fower-one that some dear hand
has gathered and presented as a delicate
token of love /? How many, many, such
little relics have l preserved, and even
the fragrance of their decay is sweeter
than the freshness of life from those less

or will grow cold and careless, and shall
find no sympathy in all this heartless
world, but the stores of the soul will vet
be ours. We cannot revivify the past,
and make our by gone days pass over our
heads again in their older beauty, but we
can use the Egyptian art of embalming
what is dead, and, more fortunate than
they, can keep the spirit of the past alive
when its form and outward glory is van
lshed forever Memory has certainly its
pleasures, and it has as surely its pains.
Some hearts are smitten by an early blight
that tinges the very latest hour of long
life with regret and some live to three
score years and ten without being DOOM
ed to look back upon any crushing sor-
row, or any fiery ordeal that scared them
as they passed. But very few are there,
however, who pass the midday of life
and find much of its morning brightness
left. How foolish, how sinful, to be al
ways repining, and asking for what we
cannot have. How can we be sad when
the green fields and the gentle flowers
will be our friends

Ig- The author of those classical and
delectotSc articles which have lately APP
peared in the CiUiiiGn, solely, it seems,
for our benefit, splurges away at us
again this week, in his peculiar style
which seems to consist simply of a mix
ture of vulgar explosives and bad gram
mar. He seems to be rather ashamed of
his offspring, as well he might, and has
utterly failed TO notice the reasonable re-
quest we made in our last weeks issue,
that he would openly acknowledge bis
bantlings. Come, come, sir, do tell us
10 whom we are indebted for the sage
and original advice so gratuitously prof
fered US.
A state of stimulation is always fol-
lowed by period of depression, and this
is evidenced, of course, in the case OF
this nondescript author. Awhile since,
and he was hot, foaming, boiling; now,
he is unnaturally cool. Did any one ev-
err see or hear of more intensely cool
spectacle, than that which the author pre-
sents when he asserts that we "acknow
ledge the coin in relation to the tax list -
The charge of falsehood which we fast.
ened upon him once, and threw into his
teeth a second time in connection with
this affair, this very asta1e author says i:
acknowledging the COIN" fit is, We
rather think, from what we know Of him
that we shall be compelled to keep Oh
acknowledging tho coin," in reference
TO anything he may have to say.
All we have to say about that proof is
that possibly next week may prove au
spicious for its developmcnt-we shall
see. In the meantime, we hope you anC
the honorable Judge will dream pleasant
ly at night.

SUCCESS CRowNING MERIT.-We are
always glad when real merit is crowned
with success. A few years ago the pro-
prietors of DR.. Halls Balsam modestly
announced that they had a valuable cough
remedy for sale. They did not resort to
the reckless High Pressure System
of putting as some others we could name,
but in straightforward, common-sense
manner, explained the nature and effect
of their Medicine, told what it would do,
and presented the strongest and most un-
Improbable evidence of the good which
it had done. 1t is now the most popular
remedy of the age.

ES The Republican Mayor of Chica-
go, "Long JOHN WENTWORTH, as he
is Familiarity called, having put the rogues
of that fast city through rapid "course
of sprouts" and having thereby dam
aged the political prospects of some b.
gus Democrats. has excited The ire of his
political opponents, who have been Ibpelab;;
Misrepresentation. They have trumped
up all kinds of charges against him, but
he has kept on his course unruffled, de-
molishing political enemies through the
columns of his paper, and proving him
self emphaGcally terror to evil do
ers." This course has rendered the
mayor extremely popular with the order
loving portion of the community, which
fact is by no means pleasing to the friends
of the " Little Giant" who hates the
eccentric mayor with an JUNCTION, and it
therefore became necessary that something
should be done to destroy his influence.
The discovery that the mayor had in his
possession several canvas mail bags be-
longing to the United States government,
was hailed with a perfect yell of delight
by the Border Ruffians of Chicago, and
Lis Indictment for stealing was circulated
by the Locofoco press with evidences of
peculiar enjoyment. The game has not
been successful, however, as will be seen
from the following, which we clip from
the Prairie Farmer, a disinterested and
reliable authority:
Reader, you may have heard that
" the Mayor OF Chicago has been arrest
ed for sealing" Justice is due the man
who does public good, and labors to
promote the interests of the sober, indus

mics, or men who have Ieit the moral
power Of compulsory reform upon them,

who labors unhinchingly and mparlially
against iniqvity in high or low places, it
Is every good citizens duty to both pub
licly aud privately expose such acts and
the actors. The Mayor acas arrested for
stealing mail bags. They came into his
possession while he was member of Con.
gress. They were sent to him filled with
public documents. In order to make il
