AO3 lOCo-
The Annual MEETING of the Cleveland Orphan
Asylum was held in the lecture room of the Sec
ond Presbyterian Church this evening. Hon. S.
J. Andrews having called the meeting to order,
prayer was offered by Rev. J. NJ. Hoyt, who after
wards read the report of Mrs. VIM. Mittleberger,
Secretary of the Board of Managers After
somewhat animated discussion, in which Messrs.
Elisha Taylor, John A Foot, B. Rouse, J. N. Hoyt
and Rev. DR.. Bolles participated, the report was
unanimously adopted, and ordered to be printed
in pamphlet form. Geo. Mygatt, Esq, the Treas
urer, then read the Financial Report, which was
also adopted and ordered to be printed with that
of the Board of Managers. This not being the
day prescribed by the Constitution for holding the
annual meeting, the President decided that this
meeting could not legally proceed to the election
of officers, and that in consequence the present in
cumbents will hold over until the next annual
meeting, all vacancies being filed by the Board of
Managers. The following. therefore, elected last
year will be the officers for the year to come

10 take this acknowledgment Is from the Unit
ed States statute, which provides that the off,
Ger himself should take and certify all such in

laws Of Kentucky, the Deputy has no possible
power to take such an instrument as this &C
knowledgment. Therefore it is claimed that
whatever may be the law Of Kentucky as 10 the
power Of the deputy to do whatever the princi.
pal Clerk may do, that deputy has no power to
act in such matter as this, aud further that the
Clerk himself had no power to take this ac-
acknowledgement. II the Clerk bad that power,
and the Deputy had power to do whatever the
principal could do, then the deputy might have
made out the acknowledgment IN his OiCn name.
But here the principal was absent and the dep.
uty signed the ramo of that absent principal
Therefore the acknowledgement is null end void
The Power of Attorney was Eere read, being
made by Richardson, deputy clerk, in the direct
name Of the principal Robert A. Cochran 49,
Moreover, Cochran himself most unequivocally
stated upon the first trial that he had no per.

Is the World a Mistake!

One of the saddest M istakes which good
people have made is in supposing the
world 70 be a mistake. To these people
and their number is not snall-the
earth is but theatre of pain and sickness,
sorrow and death. Joy is illusive, pleas
ure cheat, laughter mockery, and hap
piness thing impossible, and not even to
be looked for on this side the grave.
The performance of all duty is the "ta-
king up" Of what they call ga CROSSE
They are actual afraid to be happy, under
an overshadowing impression that they
have no right to be happy in this life.
They believe that there is something in
trinsicaIy badsin she world they inhabit,
and all the joy that proceeds from it,
They have an idea that the moral evil
which afflicts the human race has struck
in. All the sufferings of the brute crea-
tion-their throes OF labor, and sickness
of body, and pains of death-are SO many
voices proclaiming the fatal failure of
Adam. Human nature itself is an awful
thing. God is great law giver an mex
orable avenger, an awful judge, Being
to be feared more than loved. Life is a
trial--seyere, unrelenting, perpetual.-
All that seems good and graceful and
glorious in the world Is a hollow sham,
for the deception of the unwary and the
ruin of the unwise.
Meigs County telegraph. [volume] (Pomeroy [Ohio]) 1848-1859, 1859-05-24
This should not be thus. The inner

This should not be thus. The inner
should be sovereign. and the outer sub
servient in all the departments of life; not
depressing it by tyranny, nor subjecting 1t
to needless penances; butlrequiriog that
which is due from an inferior to supe-
rior from its very weakness requiring that
aid which elevates to higher plane.
1t is only when the world OF feeling and
the world of sense are nicely balanced,
that perfect harmony of character is at
tanned. In this world, we must of course
be governed by it's natural laws, but we
should ever consider the cultivation of the
inner life not only pleassfe but sacred
duty. 1t is this cultfyatic hat is short
ening, Iink by link. the chain between
man and the angels-the camera, which
is catching glimpses of the elevated and
beautiful of our ideal Heaven.

The CurrRmL.

One of the most neglected of our small
fruits is the currant. If cultivated at all ,
it is generally put in some fence corner in
the garden-the grass is suffered to grow
around its roots and it is no wonder that
it rewards such attention with inferior
fruit. None of our fruits reward kind at
tention with more liberal returning. To
obtain the largest fruit and the greatest
yield; it should be planted in rich well
prepared soil, which should receive good
cultivation during summer, or what is
better, if a heavy mulching of straw or
coarse manure is applied i'll the spring, SO
as to keep the ground moist and prevent
the growth of weeds, it will produce a
large crop of superior fruit The currant
being gross feeder, good coating OF ma
nure should be Iorked in about the root
every year or two.
Being among our earliest fruits, it
should be used IN every family. 1t has an
agreeable acid flavor, and is highly promo
tive OF health. 1t can be used in the green
or ripe state for making pies, tarts, Sc.
1t also makes wine which is much priced,
and if cultivated for that purpose, it would
doubtless prove profitable. Among the
well tried varieties which have proved
worthy of cultivation are the red Dutch.
white Dutch, Cherry and white Grape.
The red Dutch, however, is one of the best
varieties.

Little or no attention has been devoted
TO this subject in our country, and yet
it is one which should not be treated with
indifference. In England there are seve-
raj large factories where it is made for
ocean steamers especially; and if found to
be a profitable business there, we dc not
see why it may not be made so here. 1t
is generally composed of coal-tar mixed
with saw-dust and coal dust, all heated to-
gether and then pressed into square Llocks.
Fine coal aud saw dust, that would other-
wise be considered waste, are thus conver-

packed neatly and carried to any distance
