THE MAN WHO DON'T PAY THE
PRINTER.

Some Editor down East gets off the
following bitter pill. The fourth ar
ticle is the most severe:
May he be shod with lightning and
compelled to walk over plains of Gun
powder.
May he have sore eyes, and chest.
nut burr for an eye stone.
May every day of his life be more
despotie than the Dey Of Algites.
May he never be permitted to kiss a
pretty woman.
May his sheets be sprinkled with
cowbage and with bed bugs, and fleas
the sharers of his couch.
May $50 nightmares trot quarter
race over his stomach every night.
May his wife be always cross, and
his baby ever on the squall.
May his demijohn always be full of
blue devil and rot gut.
May his boots leak, his gun hang fire
and his fishing lines break.
May his coffee be swcetened with
flies and his soup seasoned with spid-
ers.
May troop Of printers "devils," :"
lean, gaunt, grim, and a regiment of
cats catterwaul under his chamber
window each night.
In short may his business 90 to ruin
and he go to --the Legislature.

LAND Sw1NDLlNG IN lowA.-A gi
gantic swindle has been perpetrated
i'll Iowa npon the nonresident land
owners. The plan of operations is
stated to be that companies of six te
twelve sharpers have in many instan
ces gone out to the unsettled districts
of Iowa, organized counties, elected
themselves county officers, levied ex.
horbitant taxes on the lands principally
held by non-residents, collected and
disburscd the money for their private
advantage. With = county Judge and
a county board selected from among
themselves, it is an easy matter to make
appropriations for services never per.
formed, work never done, and material
never needed. In q certain county
north Of Fort Dodge, in which heavy
taxes have tor several years been levi.
ed, collected and expended, last year
there were cast but nine votes, and
these all by Office holders, who OF
course voted for themselves.

A PAGANLEGEND or JESUS.

Publius Lentulus, assumed by some
to have been proconsul of Judea prior
to Herod, is reported to have seen the
Savior, and to have written the follow.
ing letter to the Roman Senate:-"At
this time appeared man who is still
living and endowed with mighty pow
er; his name is Jesus Christ. His dis
ciples call him the Son of God; others
regard him as a powerful prophet.
He raises the dead to life, and heals
the sick Of every description Of inlirm>
ity and disease. This man is of lofty
stature and we'll proportioned; his
countenance severe and 'virtuous, SO
that he inspires beholdcrs with feelings
both of fear and love. The hair of
his head is Of the color of wine, and
from the top Of the head to the ears,
straight and without radiance, but it
descends from the ears to the should
ers in shining curls. From the should
ers the hair flows down the back, d.
vided into two portions, after the man
ner of the Nazarenes; his forehead is
clear and without wrinkle; his face
free from blemish, and slightly tinged
with red, his physiognomy noble and
gracious. The nose and mouth are
faultless, His beard is abundant, the
same color as the hair, and forked.
His eyes are blue and very brilliant.
In improving Or ceDsuring he is awe
inspiring; in exhorting and teaching
his speech is gentle aud caressing.
His countenance is marvellous in Sc
riousness and grace. He has never
once been seen to laugh, but many
have seen him weep. He is slender in
person, his hands are straight and long
his arms beautiful, Grave and solemn
in his discourse, his language is SIM
pie and quiet. In appearance he is the
most beautiful of the children oflnen."

COL. f.. d. BAKER.
A BROTHERS. TRIBUTE.

1.-THE following lines embody the partcu] lar
conversation between Col Baker and hi
'other' just rs they parted previous to th
embarkation for tho battlc.1 -
'Twa: calm October morning,
Ling before the East was gray,
That our Chief received the order
Swift to marshal the array.
Lightly frsm his narrow whr-couch
Gayly up the Hero sprung,
Cheerful us if called to banquet.
Or to join the sportive throng.
Promptly was each order given,
And b:tore the morning light
His bclov'd and own battalion
Proudly marched to lind tn. fight.
As he started, I addressed him:
''Brother! brother! mind, to. day
You but do generals duty
Do not seek tho thickcst fray.
"Think how much our country ncels you,
Think your life is not your own;
Do not seek the hottest battle,
Do not venture forth alone"
''If the day goes lightly with US,
Ii deem the field our own,
I'll bat do generals duty
Wistar leads tho column on.
"Tley are drilled to move like veterans,
And like veterans they ehall fight;
Never while live to lead them
Shall they turn their backs in flight:
But if overborne with numbers
Should we like to lose the day,
1fmy own battalion falters
In the fury of the fray
"shou1d lose my valiant right arm*-
IT by rebel steal or ball,
Mid the smoke and shock Of battle,
Gallant Wistar chance to fall,
"Then my own, the Senate's honor,
Western lands and keystone State,
Tell to me \ generals duty
Is to dare IL soldiers fate.
"With the cold and silent bayonet
I will lead our Frcemen on;
Others then shall tell the story
How the day was lost or won''
Vaultine on his tall bay charger,
With smile serene and bright,
Thus my kind and valiant brother
Rode to that unequal fight.
My brother! Oh, my brother!
Brother that loved se well,
Other pens must trace tha story
How you fought and how you fill.
*lt was Col. Bakers custom to call Lieu,
ol. Wlstar his "right arm.''

our Captains and sailors have been do
ing very we'll lately. The sailors Of

4 BIT OF HISTORY-THE Slices
SION PLOT.

y Among the rebel documents found
by our forces at Fernandina was tile
following letter from Yulee, ofFlorida,
late United States, Senator, giving the
results OF the conference of Southern
Senators which was held at Washing
ton on the 9Th Of January, 1861
WASHINGTON, March 16.
Ny DEAR SIR: On The other side
is a cory Of resolutions adopted at a
consultation of the Senator's from the
seeding States-!n which Georgia,
Alabama, Louisiana, s. Arkansas. Texas,
Mississippi, and Florida were present.
The idea of thesmeetirg was that
the States should go out at once. and
provide for the early organization Of a
Confederate government, not later
than 10Th Of February. This time is
allowed to enable Louisiana and Texas
to participate. 1t seemed to be the
opinion tha, if we left here, force loan
and volunteer bills might be passed,
which would put Mr.. Lincoln in imme-
diate condition for hostilities. Where
as by remaining in our places until the
4th Of March it is thought we can keep
the hands Of Mr.. Buchanan tied, and
disable the Republicans from efecting
any legislation which will strengthen
the hands of the incoming Admins
tration.
|SThe resolutions will be sent by the
delegation to the President of the con-
vcntion. have not been able to find
Mr.. Mallory this morning. Hawkins
(the member from Florida) is in Con
neticut. Ihave, therefor, thought it
best to send you this copy of the reso.
lutions. In haste,
Yours truly, D. L. YULEE.
"Joseph Finnegan, ESQ, CSovere-
|ignty Conference,) Tallahassee, Fla.
The resolutions referred to in this
letter read as follows:
ResolUed, l. That, in our opinion,
each of the sothern states should as
soon as may be, secede from the Union.
Resolved,2. That provision should
be made for Convention to organize
a Confe3eracy Of the seeding States,
the Convention to meet no later than
the 18th of February at the city of
Montgomery, in the State Of Alabam-
ma.
Resolved, That, in view of the hostile
Legislation that is threatened against
the seeding States, and which may
be consummated before the 4th OF
March, I'VE ask instructions whether the
delegations are to remain. in Congress
until after that date, for the purpose
Of defeating such legislation.
Reso1ve0. That a committee be and
are hereby, appointed, consisting OF
Messrs Davis, Slidell and Mallory, to
carry out the objects of this meeting.
