What are you tryin teo dos you'd better
Look out and not get in the way Of the earth
Turn out i I'm sure youv got plenty of room,
What's the Of tryin to bust up this
Institution is that what you was made forS
To 60 about Dustin aud burnin up worldsY
Say you old Incendiary. How long is yer tail
And should like to know what's the good of 1t
Mebby you're goin to brush of this world from
Your track with a switch of it. You inhamyble--
Does the muskeeters bother your Where have you
Ben to and where you goin TO stopS wish
You'd postpone the ca smash till the next time
You happen this way cause Pm going to
Git married, and don't want to die till
The honeymoon is over. How long have you
Been going round on this biznessY
The Hlosophers say that you'll melt US
BY George | hope not I'm afraid "a
Git mixed with the Diggers and Niggers
And then when the last trump turned up
might be nigger wench and have to
Answer for her sins. Afal to contemplate
What mxin there'd be if we melted like
Lead
You needn't come very hot it won't take
Much to melt me, and likewise know
Some more pretty soft ones about these
Diggngs, that it won't take much to melt
Can't do without the Paper.
What! do without paperl no,
I've tried it to my sorrow,
So to subscribe for one I'll go,
Nor wait until tomorrow.
Shonld lovers frown or hang themselves,
Or other foolish caper,
I'll never get to hear of it.
do not take the paper.
Why, there's my neighbor, Jotham Stout,
He always has the news,
And having news to talk about,
He never gets the blues"
While others yawn in ennui,
His mind is like vapor;
The cause is plain to half an eye
He always takes the paper.
While neghbor Stout hears all the news,
And knows each current price,
And always minds his P's and Q's,
By taking good advice,
Icannot tell the pyice of calves,
OF poultry, coffee, tape, or
Any kind Of merchandise,
Because take no paper.
Though have studies which require
Much time and mental labor,
Yet / can spare little time,
As well as Stout, my neighbor.
Though time be precious, can use
longer midnight taper:
And thus take time to read the news
Therefore, I'll take the paper.

F ORCING AND LIFTING PUMP.

TlllSPUMP has advantages ovcrany other
i. in use in sevetal Particulars. Its action
is such that the water Is constantly rushing
forward ia the same Infection, without re-
action in the cylinder, whether TIE piston
rod moves up or down, BY which great
amount Of puweri saved, and moro Water
passed through cylinder of the same ca
pacity than by those where the water is first
drawn into the cylinder. and then suddenly
reacted and forced out, difference about as
great as That bc'wecn k2eping Il ragon, heartily
ioaded, Ia motion mhen started, aud stopping and
starting erery rod. 1t is more simple in its
arrangement. There are but t,ro palres in
the Pump, both Of which are connected with
pistons, which, together with the valves, may
be easily removed ard repaired by any one
who can turn screw or cut piece OF leather
70 I given shape; thus il will be seen that we
have Double Acting Forcing and Lifting
Pump, with no more machinery or liability to
get Oft Of order than the Single Acting Lift
ing PuwD' another great advantage of this
Pump is, .i'at tie ristons are always under
water, by its peculiarly of action anG no
air can CONSEQUENTLY lidss them; it does not
depend on stulnG Boz to form vacuum
either way, for ti!otgli ortc is used in the
forcing form in this Pump, the pressure is
always outward, and the air can be no pos
siblity go in, and it will raise waite CT at bot
motions of the rod, whetlter the top Of the
cylinder is open or not, It is therctorehc
superior Double-Acting Lifting as well a
Forcing Pump. AlleXperiente has shown
the great difficulty Of keeping eithtr stnifihe
boxes or pistons, which are constantly wear
ing, so tight as to prevent the admission OF
air, and it is well known that leak Which
will not let out water enough to inji!rs the
action Of the Pump, will let in air enbhsh
to destroy it. 1t may, therefore, be laid
down as fixed rule that all Pumps, Lepen-
dent for their action on stufiing boxes, or on
pistons or plungers exposed to the air, are,
from this very arrangement, liable to get ont
Of order; all of these difficulties are entirely
removed from the one we now have the
pleasure Of offering to the public. For sale

declared on the Lords side. AT the end Of
four weeks we pitched mu camp and unrurled
the banner of the cross in Cha ilrstown where
the word of the Lord had free course and was

him. The little Union was the next place
where We commenced oar operations. This
