Register, in concluding an account of the
trial of Gov. Bebb, thus speaks of the con-
tenptible practice which was the cause OF
liz. The lamentable consequences which
attended this case, as well as the one
which occurred more recently in Walworth
county in this State, should be a s8arni'g
TO all to avoid them. The Register says:
Thus has terminated one of the most in
teresting trials ever known in our state
Throughout, the hall was crowded with
ladies and gentlemen to its utmost capacl-
tv. 1t must have contained about 100
snectators or more. We have heard the
number varously estimated. Hundreds
of the ladies of this and the neighborlng
counties, attended during the trail, and
reioiced at the triumphant defence and &C
quittal of the defendant
Charivari parties are the horror of the
ladies. We wish such rioters could always
be tried BY jury Of women. We thlnk
this verdict will do more to prevent these
de plorable riots, than years of preaching
Our country has been clear Of them since
the 10th day of May last, and we are glad
to say that the rioters at Gov. Bebb's
were none of them residents of Winnebagc
county.
Let these de>picablc rioters remember
that the night, and not the law, is thel1
shield, and that the practice of disturbing
wedding parties with guns, horns, pans
and bells, and Internal yells and howllrgs
that make night hideous, is mean, mis-
chievous ami contemplate, beyond sthe

NoTEs.-The treasurer is also required
to make report in writing to the district,
at the annual meeting, containing state
mcnt of all moneys received by him during
the preceding year, and how dsbursed,
with the items of snch disbursements, and
exhibit the vouchers therefor. Such re-
port must also contain statement Of al
taxes assessed during the year, the
purpose for which they were assessed
and the amount assessed foi
each purpose. The report is to be recoT
ded by the clerk.
1t would be well for the treasurer of ev-
Ierv district to record every transaction OF
his Office, in a book to be kept by him and
furnished by the district for that purpose
IF such an account were kept with minute
exactness, it would be very easy for the
treasurer to make his annual report, and
10 inspire confidence in its correctness; and
If he carefully preserves his vouchers, the
business of the annual meeting would be
happily facilitated. Such course is re
commended to the treasurers of school dis
tricts.
The form of the trcasurer's report may
be as follows:

THE EMPEROR NICHOLAS.

Just before the death of the Emperor
Nicholas of Russia, an affair occurred, in
which the firm Justice Of his character
was nobly displayed. The child of
game-keepcr attached to the house Of
severe and cruel noblcman, veri:able
Nero among his serfs, was SO unfortunate
as to break the leg of little dog belong
ing to the hunting pack Of the estate
The nobeman, furious, seized the child,
dragged him into his armory, and with
the but of a pistol, shattered his Skull
Overhearing the tumult. the game-keep
err hurried to the scene, and found him
self in the presence Of the dead body of
his son, and the murderer standing near
his victim.
WAS it you that killed my child de-
manded the game-kceper, in a voice bro
ken with despair.
1T was l.
why did you do SOL
Because he had broken the leg of one
Of my dogs
'Recommend your soul to God You
are about to die :
The lordly assassin tried to grasp an
other pistol; but before he could succeed,
the game keeper, with lrCn hlnd. threw
him on his knees.
Recommend your soul to God, tell
you, that he may have pity on your soul
If such mons ers have souls.
Mercy. Pity Help cred the noble
man, struggling IN vain within the fierce
grasp which held hun to the ground
DO you want gold! | will give you as
much as You can need
Gold Will rot stop the How OF blood.
DO You wish your freedom You
shall have 1t,
Liberty will not restore my child,
Pardon me Mercy ! Help! 10
the rescue
Attracted by the cries, dozen serts
ran to help their master, Butat the sight
of the corpse, and the father despair,they
comprehended all tic horror OF the tra--
edy which had just happened in that
blood-stain d hall.
Help me, my children, cried the no.
blcmen, 'deiead me 3!
But not voice was heard-not an
arm was extended TO help the murder
er.
These honest men have not come here
to save you. said the game-keeper.-
They are here to Judge and assist IN the
execution of YOUR sentence Raising

cream; when this has come slowly to the
scalding point, it is ready for the table.

Of the most severe
MENTAL AND Observation-Disclosures
to which tn, race Of is subject, careful an
alysis and long and painful experience have clear
ly proven that it contains certain norcotic and
poisonous properties most dangerous in their IF
fects, which by entering into the blood derange
the functions and operations Of the Heart causing
many to suppose that organ to be seriously dis
cascd
TOBACCO affects also the entire nervous system
manifestng itself-as all who have ever used the
uoxious weed will bear testmonv-in Iassitude.

many other disorders Of similar character.

Are designed to counterfeit these baneful inluen-
ces, ami have proved completely successful in a
multitude ef eases, and wherever used. Being

indulgence, completely removing the irritation and
accompanying tickling sensation of the Throat
which are always consequent upon abstaining from
the use Of Tobacco, and by giving healthy tone
to the stomach, inyi rating the whole system
Persons who are ire trievably undermining their
