ThC CircllS.

\ circus comes to town, and everybody
knows how the music and the grand tent
and the horses set all the boys agog. Quar-
ters of dollars and shillings are in great de-
mand; and many choice bit of money have
the circus-riders carried away which was
meant for better purposes.
A little boy was seen looking round the
premises with great deal of curiosity
"Halloa, Johnny" said man who knew him,
going to the circus ?" r..-.........
mo, sir" answered Johnny, ''father don't
like 'em."
"0h, well, I'll giveyou money to go, John
N.Y." said the man.
"Father don't approve of them," answered
Johnny. ,ar..

mo, sir" said Johnny, my father would
give me money if he thought 'twere best; be-
sides, I've got twenty-five cents in my strong
box, twice enough to GO"
"Fdgo, Johnny, for once; it's wonderful,
the way the horses do" said the man
"Your father needn't know it."

We pass over the fervent thanks of Frank
and Lucy, and the evident distress of the
generous Khowlton at being compelled to
accept so much gratitude. h-tr--..
Suffice it to say that the liabilities ofFrank
Warde were promptly met, and the business
of the establishment continued undisturbed.
Young Farnsworth raved and swore, on
learning the result he was sure that Lucy
had only written him that letter to get free
from her engagement, and he despised him
self for having been so easily duped. .''+
Before the financial tempest was over,
Farnsworth & Son were sunken in bankrupt
cy; and the aristocratic young gentleman,
who feared ''to endanger the credit Of his
business" by assocating with the family Of
a man who had failed, was, reduced almost
to poverty by the mighty revulsions that
shook the monetary world a' &C., ~ rl
A year after the crisis in Frand Warde's

that her happiness was safe in his keeping.

Lincoln ;lt Cincinnati.

The Hon. Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois, ar
rived in this city Saturday evening, from
Dayton, at which place. as we understand, he
made speech prior to the leaving of the cars.
Upon reaching the depot he was met by a
large coneourse ofpersons who had assembled
to greet the champ ion of Freedom in the
Sucker State" The deception must have re-
minded him ofhis tour through his own State
when, as here, the guns thundered welcome,
music greeted, and people, cheered at each
place of stopping. ,ra -a .oaa.r.r r-a.
Conducted by the Committee to the Burnet
House, he there received some few persons,
who desired to show him by personal visit
hat respect which his honesty and talant has
procured for him at home and wherever his
name is known. About eight o clock he was
conveyed to the Fifth street market-space,
where, from the balcony of Mr.. Kinsey's
house, he delivered himself of a speech occu-
peing two hours and a half. Unlike the gen.
tleman to whom he was making reply, he
did not repeat the worn-out phrases which
were conned over for the people of Illinois
twelve months since; nor did he palm of
upon the people speech studied for this
tour, and which we had reported yesterday;
but he uttered a speech fresh and original
which will be found interesting and unan
answerabel.

Sir Edward Bulwer Litton, in a lecture re-
Gently delivered in England, gives the follow
ing history of his literary habits:
Many persons seeing me so much engaged
in active life, and much about the world ask
''When dosyoul get time to write all your
books? How on earth do you contrive to do
so much work." Ishall surprise you by the
answers | make. The answer is this: con-
triye to do so much by never doing too much
at a time. A man, to get through work well,
must not overwork himself; or, if he does too
much to-day, the reaction offatigue will come
and he will be obliged to do too little to-mor-
row.
Now, since | began really and earnestly
to study, which was not till had left col
lege, and was actually in the world, may
perhaps say that have gone through as large
course of general reading as most men of
my time | have travelled much, and have
seen much; have mixed much in politics,
and the various business of life; and in addi-
ton to all this, have published somewhere
about sixty volumes, some upon subjects ofre-
search. And what time do you think, as a
general rule have devoted to Stady--to
reading2 Not more than three hours day
and when Parliament is sitting, not always
that. But then, during those hours, have
given my whole attention to what was a.

Mr.. Bolts and Mr.. Rates.

Mr.. John NJ. Bolts has followed Mr.. Ed
ward yates with an expression of his views
on the slavery question. Itmust be conceded
that the gentleman from Virginia has taken
a step in advance of the distinguished Mis-
sourian, and that he has placed himself near
er the Republican platform than any other
prominent man of the present day south OF
Mason and Dixon's line. Mr. Bolts has also
the advantage of Mr.. Bates in having given
his views publicity over his own signature,
instead of allowing them to be Transcribed
by third person, and printed on the author
ity of that person in Massachusetts, news
paper. Mr.. Bolts platform will occasion the
more surprise since it inevitably separates
him from the fellowship of his old time CO.
adjutors, the Richmond Wing and the Louis
vile Journal-thc Gogginites of Virginia
and the partizans nf Joshua F. Bell in the
late campaign of Kentucky. His position as
we read it is this: That Congress is the
sole governor of the Territories, having the
unquestionable right to exclude slavery from
their limits 2-That it was the policy OF
the trainers of our government to prohibit
the introduction Of slavery into all territory
belonging to the United States; 3-That he
(Mr. Botts) has always advocated the policy
of confirming slavery to its present limits, un-
less it should gradually "fpd its way to a
warmer and more southern climate than the
line of 35 deg. north latitude;" THAT sla-
very is local institution, which can only
look to local law for recognition and protec
tlon-"if the Constitution protects it. in the
Territories, where it does not exist, it can do
no less in the States where it does not exist
5-That the o5iter dicta of the Dred Scott
decision are to be respected no more than the
political opinions of the judges uttered on
the street; 6-That Mr.. Bolts is inilexiblv
opposed to a Congressional slave code, and
to re-opening of the African slave trade; Z
That he is opposed to all further slavery
legislation in Congress of whatever descrip-

Newspaper Publishing.

A veteran editor, after an experience Of q
quarter of century, gives it as his opinion
that the newspaper business, if long followed
will give any one a poor opinion Of the com.
mon honesty Of mankind. Hear him
"We have tried the business more than the
eighth of century, and regret to say that
our estimate of the aggregate honesty OF
mankind has been considerably lowered
There is a great deal of latent, undeveloped
rascality in the race, and if man has any OF
it in his composition he is sure to exhibit it
when his newspaper subscription becomes
due Within the last twelve or fifteen years
we have been engaged in the business, we
have lost enough money through the rascal
ity of our customers to make man of mod
crate desires rich! Many Of those who owe
us these small amounts, from S. to 500, are
rolling in wealth and could pay any day in
the year if they desired to do so. Many 9TH

morrow. Others belong to class quite nu.
merols, who write to editors to send them
papers and they will pay when they gather
their cotton or do something else, but pay.
day never comes and, finally, after sending
the paper four or five years, it is ascertained
that they never wereworth snap Another
class of losses grow out of the negligence O
postmasters. A subscriber, after taking Z
paper six months or a year, leaves the coun
try without giving the editor notice, and af
ter four or five years have elapsed he happen,
to meet with the postmaster who most mag
unanimously informs him that his subscribe
has gone to ''parts unknown" and if h,
wishes to get any pay for his paper he ha,
better stop ii! Or, after suffering the pape
to come two or three years, he writes to TIL
editor that for the second or third time h
will inform him that the paper is not takel
out, &c. The losses, and various others w
might refer to, absorb the profits Of the busi
ness to such an extent as greatly to discour
age those engaged in it.

non-paying subscribers, and have been wors
swindled than any other publisher we know
