When should lovers breathe their vows? When should ladies hear them2 When the dew is on the boughs,
 When none else are near them; When the moon shines cold and pale, When the birds are sleeping, When no voice is on the gale,

The SUB TREASURY AcT.-The Xenia

Of the law Of last winter, relating to the
establishment Of State sub. treasury, and
remarks upon that portion Of it relating
to township treasurers. 1t says:
The law says that county commission
ers shall provide "vaults or safes" for the
security of the county funds. Must the
trustees Of each township furnish the
same safeguards against burglars? II
they do not, the treasurer is subject to
all the risks attending the immediate pos.
session Of large sums Of money. He must
not deposite his funds in bank or even in
his neighbours safe-he must keep in his
individual possession the incidental mon.
ey received from the county treasurer,
sometimes in some townships amounting
to thousands of dollars-money that he
draws at a particular time, Of which time
the professional burglar is as well adver.
tised as any other member Of community,
Situated as most township treasurers are
--on farmsin the country, away from the
protection Of police--they are made BY
this law, the fairest subjects to be pluck
ed by the scoundrels who live BY
plundering their fellow men. For the
smi Il compensation received for the ser
vices required. who will be found willing
