Aeshs Editors Can you inform your
readers Of the probable fate q the Brcckirsl
ridge party, which was, previous to last
Tuesday, supposed TO- have idsexistence in
this town. It is well known that we have
certain public functionaries in this town, who
were, previous to the recent election, strenu-
GUS advocates Of the claims Of Mr.. BREckIN
RIDGE for the Prssidencys The CANVASS Of
the votes polled show that those persons, as
well Is al other persons who advocated the
same cause, either, dad MT sqs, or Voted
come other ticket, - no Breckenridge votes
were cast. Allow those gentlemen to take
either horn Of the dilemlss, and then asl.
them what relation they sustain-t to the pres.
ent Administration But further revelations
show thst those pablo sasal Ma i;sssdid cote:
The next question that arises, For sehom did

Pay Your Debts.

At such moment as the present every
man who has the money, or can raise it in
any way, should promptly liquidate his otli-
cations TO refuse or neglect to do so. at
any time, would be wrong, but now such ne
glect or refusal is double and an inexcusa-
bic wrong. One dollar set in motion may
pay fifty times that amount of debt in few
days. Few people realize this matter Of debt
paying as they should. They have no con-
science on the subject. They excuse them
selves by saying they are every busy Sup
pose you are busy. You are not too busy to
neglect such moral obligation. 81 will at

burned, or some other providential circum-
stance may happen to prevent it. "Oh, he
don't want the money" How do you know
that? Who gave you that piece Of informa-
ton Nothing but the voice or message of
your creditor can settle that matter. "He is
rich, and don't need small sums" Indeed
is that your excuse? How do you know but
,ha. your neglect to pay him hundreds may
cost him thousands ? Il can't stand such a
high rate of exchange" You are bound to
stand it, for while in business you must take
all its risks. If you can't stand the exchange
how do you expect your creditors can stand
your delinquency "If he wants money he
has only to go to the bank" Well, that will

Transmieration of Souls.
HOW OLD REED WAS CONVERTED.

The New York correspondent of West
ern paper tells the following story for the
benefit of some hard cases:
He says he once knew man by the name
of Reed, commonly known as "Old Reed"
Reed was quite notorious in his way, and
his religious belief was that after death he
should reappear in the FORM of an animal,
and thought he would be horse Nov
"Old Reed" was hard man. and was not in
the habit of treating his family as a religious
man should. One day, after his wife had
suffered his abuse as long as humanity could
endure, she concluded to give him q brief
talking to-to touch him upon his religious
belief.
So, resolutely seating herself by his side,
and looking him full in the face, while a tear
drop glistened in her eye FOR she was seri-
Gus and thought perhaps he was correct in
his faith-she commenced: "Reed, wish
to have a serious talk with you; have
something to say to YOU and you must hear
it. l have a duty to perform, ard shall do
it. and then, If you are miserable hereafter, 1t
will not be my fault. You believe, Reed,
that when you die you will turn into some
animal, and you think it will be horse
Now, if you keep on your present course,
and continue TO neglect and abuse your fam
lily, squandering money for drink, and at the
gaming table, when you die you will turn in
to some old twelve shilling horse, and some
dirty clam pedd!er will get YOU, and you vii!
! be nard worked and half starved, and shall
see you every day before rickety old wagon
filled With clans. Such will be your eterni-
! ty.
But now, Reed, it needn't be SO; your fu-
ture may be bright, happy one. If you
will reform and turn right about and become
better man-be kind ard afF.ctionate to
your family, anG treat them as Christian
should. why. when you die you will turn into
a fre hundred dollar horse, and some West
End buck Will get hold of You, and give you
bushsl of oats day, rub you down with
pea straw, and haze you docked and your tail
set up" He says "Od Reed" was straight
way converted-was rcformed-and is pa
tlently waiting for death to introduce him to
his coveted horse hearen-where are only
shell roads" and two-forty nags with "prick-
ed" tails.

Census Items.

1t would require population of about
'6S 100000 in the present states and terrific
ries. to settle them in density equal to that
cf Massachusetts.
The quantity of wood annually consumed
in the United States is hardly credible to
minds VI accustomed to deal in large figures.
And yet, so great are the resources, that
wood brings little more per cord in most
parts of the country now than it did twenty
years ago. In ship-building alone surprising
quantities are consumed. The oak timber
required for one single ocean steamer will
strip bare fifty acres of the best woodland in
the country. To supply the ship-yards Of
New York requires the stripping of FIVE
thousand acres Of timber land annually, vet
this immense supply can be continued with
out any sensible addition to the price or any
apparent dminu.on of our forest lands. 1t
is asserted that Oregon alone can supply the
demand OF all the navies in the world and
not feel it.
Philadelphia established the first water
works, ran the first locomotive, founded the
| first public hospital. the first me lical college,
the first law school, the first academy of the
fine arts, the first public museum, the first
hall cf music, in this country, and, also, the
first library in the world opened freely to all.
The first railroad and the first turnpike road
