prRty6w1Y.Lon SATURDAY, morning

RB-RrN1WAY.-On Saturday morning
the driver of one horse wagon stopped
his horse in Quincy Street, and went into
q tavern, as we supposed, for the purpose
of getting = drink. The horse started
and ran away, bringing the vehicle up
against an awning-post, swapping off the
shafts, and piling the whole arrangement
up. in u sort of rough wreck. five are
right in our conjecture. as to the object
of the mans visit into the tavern, the
moral lesson of the accident is Obvious
If he didn't go in to get a drink he ought
to have gone for that purpose, aud ought
to have accomplished his object, for, to
allow horses to stand loose in the streets
is violation of the city ordinances, and
every man SO offending deserves no less
punishment than to be made to drink
whisky that will burn hole in his coat
sleeve when he wipes his lips. We are
having too many runaways, lately.

BaTWAsnrNGToX's FAREWELL Address.
A suggestion has been made in Phila-
dclphia that the approaching the 22d of
February should be celebrated by reading
Washington's Farewell Address in every
city, town and village and neighborhood
in the United States, as a measure that
would be likely to have an excellent effect
at this time. This is good idea, and we
hope the suggestion will meet with favor
incur community. If such custom were
annually observed throughout the United
States, we should soon find something else
to think and talk about, instead of disloy-
atty to the Union.

THE closing years of life are often rem
dcred wretched by ailments which are
trilling in themselves and are easily cured
if taken in time. Affection of the liver,
stomach, and other organs concerned in
digestion, are the most frequent. They
naturally make the sufferer nervous, ira
table and complaining, and relative and
friends are forced to bear the brunt Of
their ill-humor. The use of Hostetter's
Celebrated Stomach Bitters will prove an
efficient remedy for this evil, it will not
only strengthen the whole physical organ
ization, but entirely cure the most obsti-
nate case of indigestion, Diarrhon, Dys-
EMERY, and Liver Complaint. The first
physicians in the country are loud i'll
their praise of this preparation. Another
recommendation of the Bitters is that it
is so paIatable to the taste that it may be
used as beverage. Sold by all druggists.

@3WISTRy WRATuEn.-LastS Saturday,
we were forcibly struck by the wind and
an idea, that in the annals of literature
could be found graphic description of the
present frigid freak of the weather, en-
bodied in immortal verse, by au obscure
poet who lived and loved in days long
gone by. Here it iG:
H'Tis tho last kick of winter
Left struggling alone;
All its drcary companions
Are faded and gone;
No STORM OF itS kindred,
No snOw-banE il nigh,
To reflect back its whiienesS
Or give sigh for sigh"
The immortal bard unquestionnbly
poured forth this gem of poctical iuconsis-
tency in q moment of spasmodic inspira-
zion, when his eyes were in "fnc pIlrcnzy
rolling" for lac stops short of and gives no
moro master strokes of meteorological de-
scriptiun for the information, edifcation
delectation, and Utilization OF his cnaptur
ed reader. Whether Cor not this cold will
prove to be the last "kick" OF winter, is u
matter which time alone can demonstrate.
If our Yaticinntion, are worth as much aR
the uncrring guesSes of fortune tellers, our
readers will thank us for saying that this
is the last (latest) attack of"ny severity to
he apprehcndcd from the present fast fla
ding winter. No charge will be made for
this uncertain prediction, though founded.

CURIOUS MOVEMENT OF THE HIDE AND LEATHER
MEN.-We publish in another column curl
GUS circular, issued by some dozen hide and
leather dealers in the Swamp" with view to
regulate the value of hides. These philoso-
pliers propose to the tanners to tan smaller
quantity of hides for the current year than be-
fore, and thus increase the price Of those al
ready in the market. They use great many
figures to show that a tanner can make as much
money by turning out $500 hides in the year at
gain Of 20 per cent as by manufacturing TO-
900 with 60 per cent gain, and they urge upon
the tanners to restrict their operations for this
year, because there is an overstock of leather
in the market Some of the plans adopted in
these days to regulate trade are very extraor-
binary, and seem to be projected without any
consideration for the effects of demand and
supply, which regulate all trades. Some Of
the old Dutch merchants had habit, when The
market was overlooked with any article, Of
