Close intertwined each heart;
But time and change in concert
Have blown the wreath apart,
But sainted memories,
Like angels ever come,
If fold my arms and ponder

graph.
MEssRs. Ed oRS Since my last letter
we have had wrfh the exception OF a very
few days-an uninterrupted continuance of cold
weather. The mercury on many mornings of

sleigh rag has been most excellent, and so great
depth of snow has not fallen in one winter be-
fore, for year., Today it is much mnle mild
and is hawing considerably the first that caves
have run for weeks. The great topic of inter

The enforcing Of the dog lao in this town, is
hardly secondary in interest to the great gener-
al question Of the day. The law seems to be
decidedly unpopular, and many are not disposed
to pay a dollar tax upon a dog not worth

dollars cost to pay, generally brings them to
terms.
We have been favored with course of lectures
on slavery, an1 he war as its results, &c, by
Mr. Codding, of Illinois. The subject high
ly interesting, and the arguments Of the gentle
man conclusive, that slavery must cease with
the crushing out of this rebellion, or the perpe-
tuity of the Union will not be established upon
permanent basis. The arguments of the speak
er were well received by all classes of politicians.
We have been favored with lecture by Prof

its founder, its character its propagation, and
its influence on christianity and general civil

of Mohammed and the foundation of Islamism.
and the great conquests Of the most eminent
leaders and believers of the true faith. 1t was
shown that the influence emanating from that

Professor exhibited a profound knowledge Of
all history pertaining to the subject. Should
