FOUND DEAD.

man 10y the name of Oliver c. Burr, Of
Stamford, was found by the roadside frozen
to death, last week Monday in the afternoon,
but short distance out from the highway
leading from the Baptist Church to y. Adams.
Inquiries into the facts of the case showed
that he visited the afore mentioned place for
the purpose Of making number Of purchases,
aud that among the rest he was careful to
purchase sufficient rum, either in Adams or
somewhere on his road home, to render him
beastly intoxicated at least TO so great de-
gree as to blunt his sensbilties. and cause
him to wander from the path, where, either
exhausted or SO overcome by liquor that he
could keep his feet no longer, he laid down
upon the snow, his face reclining upon small
hemlock shrub. in which condition he was
discovered. with firm grip upon small bun
die he carried. being partly covered with the
snow, From the nature of things in toe To-
caiity of the spot j, would seem that lac crept
along on his hands and knees nearly so rods
in vain hopes probably of gaining his homo,
twice falling distance of fully fifteen feet
over the railing by the roadside He was in
company with an lrishman, but the missera-
bic wretch, being too drunk TO entortaln feel

nifty of the Baptist Church, leaving him to
perish alone but taking with him, perhaps
for relict, his running And thus the man

TO THE FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE

TO THE FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE.
The Vermont State Temperance Society is
making special efforts to enlarge its sphere of
usefulness by increasing its membership, and
circulating&ood temperance publications, and
securing the cooperation Of all good men.--
Vermont has wholesome temperance laws
but mere statutes are not all that is needed.
Many are being ruined by the dreadful vice of
intemperanct. 4 certain poisoning influence
pervades almost every community, and by
means Of false reasoning and pernicious ex-
amples, tends to psrvert the minds and cor
rupt the habits of the Youth. 1t is time for
all true friends of the temperance cause to do
something more 'ndn to wish it success. The
plan now adopted by the executive committee
Of the Society is to call for volunteers to act
simultaneously in all the towns, instead of
employing general travelling agent. TO ac-
complish this, Mr.. w. w. ATwArER of Rut-
land has been appointed by the committee
Corresponding Agent for the Society. and has
forwarded a copy of the constitution and
pledge, and a circular to one or more of the
friends Of the cause in every town in the State
who are requested TO act agents in secur-
ing as many subscribers or members as possi-
bic. The terms OF membership are one dol
lar and all persons forwarding their names
and amount of their subscription either
through such agent in their town, or directly
by mail, to the corresponding agent above
named, will receive free for one year a copy
of the American Temperance Union Journal,
an excellent family paper, the price of which
is one dollar per year, besides helping the
cause with the profits, to be used by the So
cety in its further efforts.
We are authorized in making the above
statements by Mr.. JOHN HOWE Jr. of Bran
don, chairman of the executive committee
We mighty approve Of the plan, and hope it
may secure the success of which the cause is
so well worthy.

DON'T BE A BACHELOR

Young man, don't live crusty bachelor
it is not good for you. 1t will not improve
your morals, health or beauty. Marry as soon
as you can make it convenient, and can shape
your affairs to support wife. But when you
msrrcdau fall in love with a face instead Of
a woman Remember that common sense is
rare virtue. much better than silver, gold or
fashion. Don't court and marry crinoline or
money bags, simply because it is crinoline OF
gold in plenty; but look to sound practical
sense in woman frst--that is the touch
stone to try her other qualities by.
When you have that all else comes Your
wife that is to be- if she's fall of common
sense will grow to your way Of thinking, aud
make YOU grow to hers. A woman who has
womanly love in her heart, will find a way to
make your love towards her grow as the years
90 over you both. And another thing needs
to be needed, and that is, a common-sense
woman is not to be found where fashion con-
ssts in dragging young females into whirl,
where there is simply idle gossip and little
brain
Young man, don't stand looking after that
young woman, who has that distinguished air,
the reputation of a hirt and a belle, whose
father has heaps Of CASH for it is not mpos-
sible while you are straining your eyes, you
may be turning your back upon some unob-
trusive little damsel whom nature has cut out
.as your other half and who may be that pleas
ant-hced placid d-tempered. lovable little crea-
ture who will think enough Of you to 60 to
the end Of the world. and stay by and comfort
you when you get gray-headed and fdgety.
Marry. young gentleman, and keep your
selves out of scrapcs Have something to
live for. man alone in the world isn't
more than half man, and the world wants
entire men. So mend yourselves and be hap
py. And you shall have reason to say it was
good thing you resolved to marry, and refus-
ed to be a solitary, beer-drinking, ppe-smok-
/ ing bachelor, if you succeed as we'll in your
efforts as he who, once young man like you,
is now simply old, contented and comforta-

THE JAPANESE AT HOME.

The U. s. steam frigate Niagara arrived at
Heddo. Japan, on the 9th Of November, and
landed the japanese ambassadors safely, the
next day, all in good health The correspon-
dent of the n Y. Times gives the following
account:
"The officers we're all assembled on the
quarterback in undress uniform with side
arms,-the marines drawn up, and the yards
we're manned. Simme- Buzen-N No-Kami, first
prince, led the party, shaking hands with each
officer he passed, and most Of them were
shaken very hard. Among the Japanese Off
GERS saw tears trckling down their fares
the artist was most affected. The most pro-
found silence prevailed during their departure,
until the salute was fred and the band struck
up Home, Sweet Home after which the
port rigging was manned and three heavy
cheers we're given to this the ambassadors
waved their fans and stood erect in their boats.
They we're received on shore without ceremo-
ny, and proceeded quietly to their homes. 1
am sorry to say that there was mysterious
disappearance Of spoons, forks, blankets, &C.,
belonging to Uncle Sam, which were used by
the embassy. Everything that was not screw
ed fast seems Co have been taken. Let it go.
After spending nearly million Of dollars on
them ! suppose they think it no harm to take
everything that ia let. II is rumored that
number Of presents are being prepared for
some Of our officers but imagine from what
has already come of in the eating line, they
will not amount TO much.
A walk or ride on horseback through the
streets Of Yeddo is amusing We are great
curiosities, and at the end of every square an
immense crowd is shut off by the gates across
the street when another one commences, and
by the time we reach the next corner, it is
swelled to an enormous size. Policemen who
go before US to clear the way, are relieved ov-
cry two squares The streets are. as a gene
raj thing, clean, but the houses are poor wood
en- shanties, with tubs Of water upon every
other one in case Of fire. We are quarterod
in a magnificent temple and have everything
we could wish for to make us comfortable,
with the exception of knives and forks-chop-
sticks being used instead"

the social scale Parents Of better sons will
not allow them to associate with him, and
consequently he must seek his companions
among the criminal. Swearing is the peculiar
index Of vulgarity. Those who mean to be
refined will not countenance it, and will be
careful TO check it in others whenever there is
suitable opportunity for the exertion Of their
influence. Parents and guardians should
take pains to ascertain whether their children
or wards are addicted to this practice, and by
the force Of example lead them to abandon it
and thus ft them for the society of the refined
and Intellectual with whom they desire so
much TO havethem associate. Byrequiring them
to seek and keep good company, they will be
protected from vulgarity; and this protection
will serve as a basis for the formation Of a
character which every parent desires his child
to possess.

Which OF THESE WAS GREATEST: When
Lola Montez went to California as an actress,
she engaged an agent. This gentlemen was a
married man, with two children, and seeing
him unhappy in their absence, she presented
him with sufficient money to bring them and
their mother on. Shortly after their arrival,
the husband died. Lola then adopted the
widow and orphans-educatin the latter at
Mrs. Willards seminary at Troy. An officer
in the United States navy fell in love with one
Of these girls, and Lola, literally acting in loco
parents, approved Of his suit. During her
last visit to England, the marriage took place
Lola did not again encounter her protege (who
accompanied her husband to distant state.
where be was detailed for public duty) until
a recent period, when she met her walking
down Broadway, in company with lady of
the highest ton. With her usual impulse
Lola rushed to her young friend--literally the
child Of her charity--as to embrace her. The
young lady coldly drew back and said, " Mad
am do not know YOU mot know me
| am Lola-Lola Montez" Madam" she
exclaimed, as she turned coldly away {"
know you not, never saw you before, and il
you persist in speaking to me | will call po-
liceman," and walked away. Lola went home,
1" more in sorrow than in anger" and that
same day had the first attack of paralysis,
which, few days ago, destroyed her. Lola
Montez was literally murdered By ingrathude.

BENNINGTON BOYS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Something more than a week since Edward
Manchester, former resident in this village,
arrived here, having come from the Palmetto
State as fast as he conveniently could. He
represents most lawess state of things in
that hotbed of disunion, every branch of the
State Government being at the mercy Of a set
of men wholly given to tanatcism, and a mob
whose only aim and delight is to stir up fresh
troubles. He had TO choose between three
alternatives-fee the State, stay and Join the
rebels. or submit to generous coating Of tar
and feathers. He chose the former, not fan
cying the latter. and determined if there was
any fighting to be done to do his share on the
side of the Union. And so, in the wee
hours of night he decamped, leaving be-
hind him his trunk, and an unsettled account
with his employer who was owing him quite
a sum. He was lucky enough to escape but
not so with his two Bennington comrades,
Mr.. jerome Seymour and Mr.. Albert Cush-
man, who, he says, were certainly pressed into
the military service of the South Carolina,
their employer being the chief means Of its
accomplishment. We DO not imagine that
either of them will fight, if it comes to that,
with any great degree Of satisfaction to the
traitors, or in a manner tending to advance
the disunion cause.
Manchester declares that he owes his prov
idential escape to the timely warning Of
friend, and that but for him he would have
been obliged to enlist. Another instance Of
Southern loyalty ty.-Benaingto Banner.

A CURIOUS OvERsIGHT.-The Mississip-
ans, in their haste to be " independent" have
fallen into a curious blunder. The Louisville
journal thus points it out
ave have before us the Constitution of the
State of Mississippi. 1t prescribes that no
person shall be Senator unless he be a citizen
of the United States no person shall be a
Representative unless he be citizen of the
United States and no person can be voter
unless he be a citizen of the United States.
Now, If the act of secession has really taken
Mississippi out Of the Union, her Governor,
her members of the Legislature, her inhabit-
ants, are all diyestod of their citizenship; they
are consequently incompetent to act, and what
they do must be null and void and no law.

TIE NEW!.

Up 10 date Of last adviccs nothing had &C.
currrd at Washington materially changing the
position Of affairs in that vicinity. A General
battle may occur at any hour, and it may not
take pace for weeks.
In Western Virginia our forces are doing
well, and wherever they have succeeded in get
ting at the enemy have routed them. No
general battle has yet occurred.
In Missouri things look less favorable than
a week ago. There has been an unfortunate
rupture between Gen. Fremont and Col Blair;
while the rebels are still in large force in p1r'
tions of the State. A battle at Lexington
has been reported, but the report is not con-
frmel; and Jefferson City, the State Capital
is also threatened by tic rebels.
In Kentucky things look especially threat
enirg and collision is unavoidable unles. tn c
rebel forces leave the State. Since the occu-
patton Of Columbus by Polk, ztllickoffor has
taken possession OF several mountain ranges
in the southeast part of the State. near the
Cumberland Gap. The loyal people Of Ken.
lucky are becoming thoroughly aroused, are
organizing, arming, and preparing for decisive
operations. They Will be warmly sustained in
their efforts to expel the rebels by the General
Government, and if necessary troops from
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, now in camp, will
be scHt into the State.
