fnB sgAR OF TAN wEsT.
AN these facts confirm the theory that the
Star Of the West WIS not intended for
Charleston. The order given 10 the COM
mander OF that vessel TO 20 to Charleston
was only intended 70 exist within an hour Of
her departure from New Fork, when the real
place OF destination was to be named by tel
egraph A depatch was sent to that effect,
orderingthe Star OF the West to Fort Monroe,
Il was too late and then the Brooklyn was
telegrephed to leave Norfolk immediately
and intercept the Star Of the West and order
the captain to land his troops at Fort Mon
roe, in Virginia
There is rvason to believe tnat the dispatch
to Norfolk was inter epted, as the Brooklyn
| did not sail until message was sent to her
commander in writing, when, as the country
knows, il was too late to reach the Star of
the West and prevent her going TO Charles

at once assumed the responsibility, and now

honor OF our flag 50 grossly insulted by the

LIEcoLN's CABINET
There is 8 strong influence at work, under
the lead Of the New York Tribune, to put
Mr., Chase, Of Ohio, into the Cabinet but
/ there are several reasons why it will not
probably be done. First Mr.. Chase docs not
care about going into the Cabinet HIMSELF
especially since Mr. Seward is going there,
knowing that he Mr.. Chase would thereby
stand a chance 10 be the administration
leader in the Senate, tits believed Mr.. Lin
coin would prefer to have Mr.. Chase in the
Senate since Mr. Seward has decided to leave
it, Second, it i, understood that if Mr..
Chase goes into that MIR. Smith, Of Indiana
/ will not This concentrates the Smith and
Indiana influence against Mr.. Chase.

Tom Pepperism.

There lived in ancient story young
gentleman named Thomas Pepper, or
more Familiarity known as ''Tom," who
tradition tells us was the "Concentra-
ted Essence of LIE" broiled down to
a cuticle. In fact he never attempt
ed to tell the truth but once and then
only told it half, as he had but one
tooth, and thatin the middle of his up
per jaw, which lit it in two. Well,
Tom eventually left this world for that
genial cline which is supposed to ex-
list in the center of the earth, and when
he arrived at the outskirts of the ter
ritory he was Intercepted as to who
he was and whence he came by several
inquisitiye imps who were quarrying
birthstone for his majssty's cooking
stove,-so to speak. Tom put on
sanctimoneous face and said he was
brother of St. Patrick's, and that he
had had "fall ont" in the other
world, and preferred this for peace and
quiet-tbe ''fall out" part of the FORE
going was almost true for he did fall
out Of a window when drunk and
broke his neck. The imps smiled, and
one of them suggested it smelt of
pepper" for the sterling qualities of
the gentlemen alluded to had preceded
him to that remote region. Tom was
thrown off his guard by this remark,
and replied pepper" why that's my
name ''Tom Pepper inquired the
imps simultaneously in establishment
"The same, at your service" replied
Tom. A will indignant cry arose
from the devils, and such a general
rush into his Satanic majesty's domin-
ions was not witnessed since the over
thrown hosts of Pharoah marched in
in solid columns. The news was con-
veyed to his majesty who straightway
called an Indignation meeting, and res
olyed that Pepper should be kicked
out, as his presence would contami-
nate his subjects. Alas, poor Tom !
you received the weight of many
cloYen hoof, we conjecture. Tom af-
ter wandering about from planet to
planet and finding no rest, again re-
turned to hell The Devil having re-
Tented somewhat, which goes to prove
Byron's assertion, chat he is not such
bad Spirit after ALL" concluded to
compromise the matter with Tom.
He was willing to transmigrate TOMS
soul into any congenial flesh and blood
he might find on earth, with the I'M
derstatding that it must be as full of
the Concentrated Essence of Lie"
as he-Tom was want to be when in
the flesh Here was 'clincher" for
poor Pepper,-and he wandered up
and down, and almost everywhere for
years in search of flesh congenial,
and was about to give up in despair,
when the Devil whispered in his ear
"try Clinton" that there was an editor
there that could beat the datch, a I'd
it is understood very clearly that the
dutch can beat the devil Thither
Tom journeved, and found his proto-
type in the person of one Sham pan
ore, who weekly prints a glazing lie
over his local news, stating that the
Blank Deed is larger than the Press,
and has more home news than all other
Hunterdon county papers combined.
This man is undoubtedly foolish, and
the residents of Clinton should provide
means to have him arrested for being
ridiculous

Finale to the Elopement.

On Monday following the elopement
spoken of in orr last, Mr.. Doeringfr
followed the guilty party to Philadel-
phia, and about the first place he in
quired at he found the loving couple.
Repairing to magistrates Office, he
sent for the twain, and had an article
OF agreement drawn which absolved
him from his wife and recovered his
child. After things were adjusted in
ship shape, the parties repaired to
Beer Saloon to- drown their sorrow
in the boaoi, where Mr. Doerenger
discussed the merits of elopements in
general and this onein particular, wher-
upon she "hust out cryin'" and like
boys who run away from their fathers.
she wanted to "come back, but there
is DO sympathy for woman in this
world, and she was left to her new af-
lniiy and her tears.

Farmers Beware.
A couple of smooth tongued swim
dlers have been peddling out cotton
broadeloth for ten times its value
among the substantial farmers of the
eastern part of this State and tie
counties of Monmoth and Somerset,
and probably elsewhere, recently, and
are now probably operating in other
parts. They pretend to be agents of
an Eastern mandatory which was
obliged to dispose of its large stock on
hand at ruinous prices, in order to save
the company from bankruptcy during
the present panic They drove a
stylish turn out, made presents of
cheap jewelry and fancy articles to the
woman, whom they fattered to their
utmost, disposed of their stock at
terrible sacrifice, /" taking therefor
three months notes, a very accommo-
dating arrangement considering the
L" hard times. These swindlers in his
way obtained several hundred dollars
worth of notes, in some of the towns
they visited, by their lying misrepre-
sentations and popular" and ac-

These notes have been sold TO other
parties without notice of the fraud.
and the entire sums will have to be
paid in cash at maturity, leaving the
farmers to whistle over their verdancy
