We had supposed our old friend PRICE,
now local of the Register, was one of those
who could never be charmed by the female
sex. We have had reason however to alter
our opinion, and unless the charm is spcedi-
ly broken, he may be considered in dan
gerous situation. As Paixhan guns are to
mud fortifcations, so are bright, flashing
eyes and pouting, cherry lips to the icy
bulwarks around an old 6atch's heart. After
half dozen shots he's goner.
A few days since, our friend found a
bracelet, and next day advertised it in his
paper, stating that the fair owner could have
the same by "proving property" and "paying
for the advertisement" which fee was a
quaker ftp, the local being treasurer. He
was not permitted to keep the article long,
for on Thursday evening he says:
"This world is truly not all shadows; it is
bright with suubcams! OF this we had
some indescribable telicitous evidence YES
tcrday. Three of these sunbeam, entered
our sanctum just as We had read the last sir
of "proof" before sending the paper tC
press; and one of the graccs inquired for the
bracelet left with us for redemption. Hav
ing "proved property our "senicr" statct
tho usual terms of the Office, advance pay.
mcnt-(wc were too modest to make sucf
n claim)-when, after reasonable delay
enlivcned by bcwitching hesitation, th'
fair claimant--rcleemcd the bracelet!
was none Of y2ur ideal, mineirg, qaai
kind, but veritablc, tangible and audible
We have become converts to the doctrin,
that a desire to do a thing is begotten b,
doing it; for since the above event We hav,
felt like kissing every lady we have met
Our natural nodesty and provcrbial discre
ton, however, have enabled us to keep ou
enthusiasm within bonds. May our Lowell,
friend lose thousand bracelets, and ma
it be our happy lot to find them!
"The kiss, dear maid, your lips have left
| Shall never part from mine,
Till happier hours restore tie gift
Unaiuted back to thine"
o, SAMUEL!

Esy- Tho Tableaux of tho SENATORS
SoN, will be exhibited at Brchard Hall, on
Monday and Tuesday evenings, Feb. 9th
and 10th. This is one Of the most bcauti-
full paintings ne W on exhibition and is highly
recommended by the press every where
The Cleveland Leader says:
Especially the Young, should pay at least
one visit to this elegant exhibition, and then
resolve forever to abstain from what can in
toxicate. AS nero works of art these pain
tings possess great merit, while their dra-
matte interest is intense, and the moral cf-
feet most salutary. Parents, 60 and pay
them n visit and take your little ones along,
where they can find wildly portrayed the
sad effects of intempcrancc--the long and
terrible train of evils that follow the first
glass. Take the young of your families,
and there teach them to despisc, not only
the low groggery, but the social glass and
the fashionable drinking saloon. Let the
young husband, who may have been temp
ted to leave the society of an affcctionatC
wife for the drinking saloon where drinking
companions congrcgate-let him visit these
truthful delineations of the degradation
which tho future may have in store for him
To our readers generally, we commend
this exhibition rs one well worthy visit.

re- We observe by the Cleveland pa
pcrs that our late townsman, J. r. FITz-
GERALD, Esq, made his debut at the thea
ter in that city as delinator of Irish char
actcr, on Saturday night last.
The Herald says;
This talented gentleman's "frst appear
ancc upon any stage" at the Theatre, on
Saturday night, was success surprising
even the expectations of those best acquan-
ted with the popularity of his genius. The
occasion drew full house. The metalnor-
phose of Mr.. Fitzgerald, as Paddy, was a
perfect one; the dignificd gentleman VIC
have been accustomed to see for the past
few years was entirely lost in the rollicking
Irishman, ready for fun or fighting, for jig
or song, to play the lover, or anything
that presented itself His songs were capt
tai, and his jig with Miss Z. Smith was ex
cellent beyond description, being most grace
| fully executed by both, and both won ''lau-
rcls" by it.
Mr.. Fitzgerald was called before the cur
tain, and, with almost ovcrpoweriug emo
tions, expressed briefly his deep gratitude
for the warmth of his first reception.
His playing was a triumph few hav,
achieved on their first appearance, and hi
success is n matter of heartfelt qualification
to the many of our citizens who admire ant
respect him as n gentleman and scholar.
Mr.. f. has drawn crowded house ever
night of his appearance.
