A Coop STORY. An anecdote, worth laughing over, is cold of man who had an infrmity, as well as an appetite for fish. He was anxious to keep up his character for hon. esty, even while enjoying his favorite meal :; aud while making bill with his merchant as the story goes, and when his back was turned, the honest buyer slipped codfsh up under his coat tail. But the garment was too short to cover up the theft, aud the merchant per- ceived it.
 "Now," said the customer, anxious to im- prove all opportunities to call attention to his virtues, " Mir. Merchant have traded with you great deal, and have paid you up promptly, and honestly, haven't ?" .f
 70, yes," said the merchant, l make no complaint."l .- .+!
 "Wel,n said the customer, 1T always in- sisted that honesty is the best policy, and the best rule to live and die by."
 "That's so," replied the merchant.
 And the customer turned to depart.
 Hold on, friend," cried the merchant, "speaking of honesty, have bit of advice to give you. Whenever you come to trade again, you had better wear longer coat, or steal a shorter codfsh."

THE WEAKEST Po1NT-Does not Satan at- tack us in our weakest point? How he suits his mode of temptation to the disposition of the victim Are you vain In how dazzling lustre will he place the pleasures of this poor world before you Are you ambitious ? In what splendid honor will he make the great things of man appear !! Are you discontent- ed? In what exalted light will he place the advantages of others before your eyes Are you jealous? In what strong contrasts will he place the kindness of the person you love toward another than you Are you of ill- temper How will he make you think every body hates you, neglects you, despises you, or intends to slight you Are you indolent ] How wearisome will he make the slightest effort for another's good seem in your eyes l Are you active? How useless will he make the quiet hour of prayer, and thought and reading, seem to you He tempts us to what our nature is most inclined he suits his allure ments to our inclination. If we are of :. quiet temper, he will not tempt us there !; if we are only ambitious, he will not care to make us jealous if we are too active, he will not tempt us to be idle. He knows us well he drives our inclination to it's far extreme.

ence, from which I could not endure to banish myself l followed them into a handsome par Tor, where sat an old lady, whom my consciena told me was the rheumatic aunt he'd so cruel | ly belied. Florence herself presented me to this lady, who was fixture, and unable to raise from her chair, and before could stam- mer an apology and retire, related, in her own way Chow different from mine, the mistake by which she had been placed in my care, and the history of our journey, in which it appeared our host, Mir. Le. Roy, had been fellow-pas- senger. When she had ended, they all crowd ed about me, warmly expressing their thanks for my kindness and consideration" to my utter bewilderment and surprise, and cordially inviting me to remain with them, and make the acquaintance of my namesake and family. detached myself from all this unexpected kindness as soon as could, for fancied I read aversion in the flushing and paling face, and dropping eyes of Florence, and with one last look at her, left the room. A moment after, felt tie touch of light hand on my arm, and turning, saw, with mute surprise, that she had followed me into the vestibule.
 Mir. Le Roy" she said hurriedy, |" I can not let you go away misunderstanding me as I do you. If was silent while you so humbly apologized for the noble, generous, and honor able delicacy of your conduct, it was not from anger, believe me, but because was first too much astonished, afterward too much moved and grateful to speak. owe you more than 1 can say, and should be miserable, indeed, if false shame, which you see has not prevented my telling you this, should prevent you from continuing an acquaintance so strangely begun. Trust me, sir, l speak the truth"
 don't know what answer 1 made, for the revulsion of feeling was almost too great for words, and the rapture of knowing as looked down into that lovely face that it was not for the last time, quite took away the little sense l had remaining.
 If you want to know how felt, ask man who is going to be hung, how he would feel to be reprieved
 We'll, how time flies. It certainly does not seem five years since all this happened, yet cousin Jenny (my cousin Jenny now) so bitter ly rcproaches us in our last letter, for not visit ing her in all that time, we have again under taken the journey, but under different auspices, since Florence is Florence Dundard no more, and sleeps upon my arm in the cars no more blushingly, but with the confidence of a wife of nearly five years standing, and registered our names in the hotel books, as Mir. and Mrs. Le Roy," and bless my lucky stars as I read it over. Even while write, Florence, more lovelier than ever, as I think, makes Q grand pretence of arranging our baggage at the hotel where we stop, (and which has re- minded me by past transactions, to write down this story), or comes leaning over me to call me "dear Chester" instead of "dear cousin Frank" as five years before, and to scold me for being so stupid as to sit and write, instead of talking with her. Was ever man so happy in Slight Mistake"

God sends the night

God sends the night Before the light, That when the dawn, with rosy wings, Has tanned away
 The clouds from day, More glad we hail the morn she brings. He sends cloud The earth to shroud. And hide the glorious sky from sight, That when the gold Creeps OCT its fold, Its beauty gleams more pure and bright. 'Tis thus in life The care and strife That fill our hearts with dismals gloom, Are but as showers
 To wash the howets That all along our pat hway bloom.

PAST TRoUBLEs.-Don't harp on past trou- bles. When we see pale, nervous woman, in the midst of her friends, preferring to entertain them with list of the racking pains she has suffered, to saunter in Gods free air and sunshin, we cannot wonder that the rose re- turns not to her blanched cheek. Why is it that to some those memories are very meat and drink They consume them--the bitter ago ny is acted over and over again, the tears thrice shed, the place cherished where such a dreadful thing occurred--the scar fondly pat ted that tells of the almost fatal knife. They gasp over, and yet cling to them.

ROAD TAx.-The Township Trustees have
employed counsel to investigate this yexed question
and ascertain in whom the right to collect this tax
legally rests The ''outsiders'' are sanguine Of q
solution favorable to themselves, and confirming
them in the views recently published. There is a
settled determination their part not to pay any
tar that can be diverted from its specified object
into the general revenue Of the City, and it seems
almost certain that the original intent Of the law on
this subject must have been that taxes thus levied
should be expended upon the roads Of tAoss from
acAom they are collected.
MILITARY CONVENTION An official notice
will be found in another column Of military con-
vention to be held at Davenport the 9Th Of next
month, for the purpose Of framing military law.
This is good move. There are probably come
companies in the State whose existence Is unknown
to the gentlemen putting this enterprise on foot
If any have been in this manner overlooked they
IRE requested to send delegates any how. 1t is
hoped that every company in the State will be rep
resented.
The AVERAGE Yield OF WusAr.-An in
tellgeut farmer informs us that in his opinion the
estimate given in our paper last week of the yield
Of wheat per acre Us bushels) in this County the
present season is too high He thinks the average
will not exceed 20 bushels. Perhaps he is right.
The quality of grain however, is unusually good, and
the crop on the whole is better than an average.

Resolced, That owing to the defect in the amend
