presided, introduced Rev. j. Simpkin
son, the rector Of the parish Of North.
amrtonshire, where the ancestors Of
Washington lived.
In the course Of his speech, which
contained many interesting historical ul
lusions to the family, which he had
traced out, he said that the last English
ancestor of Washington, who died on
English soil, lies buried 10 his church
and said: "When l look down, as l do in
passing through the church, on the stars
and stripes of the arms Of Washington,
nothing will ever persuade me or my
parishioners that we do not possess the
proof that your glorious and world re-
nowned country took the suggestion for
its flag from those arms. When I see
the three stars on the top of that shield,
which is striped gules and argent, or in
plain English, red and white; when l
see the FIVE pointed stars, not six. point.
ed, which is peculiar, nothing will ever
persuade me tnat We do not possess the
original of the great and glorious Ameri.
can banner" In closing his speech; he
said; "Follow the course of Washington.
You cannot have Dobler man to follow.
May l say in allusion to his arms, that I
trust you will always bear in mind his
three stars-the star of truth, the star
of patriotism, and the star of trust in
God"

An able writer says 81 have ever
found that men who are really most fond
of the society of ladies', who cherish for
them high respect, nay, reverence
them, are seldom most popular with the
sex. Men of more assurance whose
tongues are lightly hung, who make
words supply the place Of ideas, and
place compliment in the room of senti-
ment, are the favoritcs. A true respect
for woman leads to respectful actions to-
ward them and respect is usually dis,
tant action, and this great distance Is
taken BY them for neglect and want OF
interest

AN EDITOR WANTED.
RY J. PARISH STEELE.

We have been without . paper
In our town a year or more;
Though we've had of printers plenty,
And Of editors score.
Some OF them were liam up" fellows,
Good at writing, good to plan;
But they all. without exception,
Failed in-plsasing every man!
For this mighty sin we shipped" them
Now, we're sending forth call
For an editor to join Us
Who will write to please Us all:
Others need not ask for favor,
For Of such we've had our fili:
We will heed no applications
Save from those who fill the bill.
Well mind the hrst among US
He was by no means the worst
But we didn't seem TO like him,
Simply 'cause-he was the first:
FOR, you know II - the custom,
Just to sacrifice few:
SO we placed our heels upon him,
Ere we knew what he could do.
Next, there came a gifted fellow,
With prepossessing way,
Who, but for fatal bIunder,
Would have, doubtless, won the day:
Blank, . crafty village merchsnt,
Bought puff" to gain . .lift,"
Twas ot'ensive-other merchants
Sent the editor a-drift.
Next we sent learned committee
To man In Baltimore.
Whom we knew TO be writer,
Full of cunning, full Of lore;
They solicited, he yielded,
Came, delighted young and old;
But he got in debt, and tcddled,
Leaving us rhc bag to hold"
Then host Of others followed.
Lived awhile, and passed away;
Leaving this, our thriving will &c,
Minus Of press to-day;
Hence, we send this little notice,
knowing that some fellow can
Make fortune here among US,
Just by-PLEASING EVERY NAN.
