A Just Rebuke.

We ask the attention of our readers to the follow
ing communication, which we find in the last hade-
pendent:
Mr. HIGGINS = Allow me TO correct few mis-
statements in an article in the last Independent,
headed "Petty Prescription" In the first place
am not one of Ashley pets, as you will see from
the Blade if they deign to publish my communica-
ton of this date.
Secondly, it is true hastily said it was list of
secessionsts but ,mmediately recalled it and said
they were not sccessionists, but that | would not
gratutously assist in throwing re-brand into
this community in this time of National calamity,
and if Mr.. Newton were an honest man he would
acknowledge II.
The next error is in saying Mr.. N. went to work
a.,a -. Ee..- e--s P-""'.-'a sixty sub
scribers for the Blade. The fact is S. j. Lamb a
woo-dyed Democrat procured the list - and how 7
BY campaign subscriptions at dime each.
But the last charge which you make Is the one
care the most particularly to notice. That is, that
the Independent has met with no little opposition
from the same office. Now / pronounce that uu-
qualtedly false. There is not one word OF truth
in it. have taken your paper and believe paid for
It, and have never laid straw in your way, on the
contrary, l have often spoken well of your paper
with the exception of the personalities between you
and the Journal which don't like in either Of you
and do not think the public are particularly inter
ested in.
Now Mr.. Higgins, because happen to be post
MASTER will not stoCp to do what consider to be
a mean act gratuituously, and because will take
thousand steps day to give people. their daily
papers for nothing we having no daily mail Is
no good reason to me, why should do the same by
the weeklies and have all the postage paid at th'
railroad offices.
As you close by giving me o little advice, not
withsianding anna ga very clerer gentleman" per
nit me to return it, it is just Free 1t is this
Some mems friendship is more dangerous thar
their enmity. Therefore be on your guard, and no
too hastily change old for new friends
| Respectfully, S. l.. BoUGHToN.
BOWLING GREEN, o., Sept. 8, 1852.
In replying to the above, Higgins makes one i'm
portan admission, which is in effect, that the state
ment of the Journal about one year since, charging
him with defrauding the post-ofice department
was true. He then denied it now he not only ad
mts its truthfulness, but tries to cast odium upo
Mr.. b. for not worshipping at his seeding
shrine.

The wav Get Subscribers.

The Blade Dragged some time ago of its large list
of subscribers at Bowling Green. The manner in
which they were obtained we are informed is this
man went around asking dime contributions from
his fellow citizens not stating the to which the
money was to be put. In every instance, the con-
trbutor had Weekly Blade sent him, with the un-
dersanding that he should have to endure the pun
ishment until after the election That is decidedly
q novel method Of sustaining the press by "forced
contributions" 1t may result from an absence OF
any particular views" on the subject Of fair

THE DYING SoLDIEn.-"Brin m my KNAPP
sack" said young soldier who lay sick in
one of the hospitals at Washington. Bring
me my knapsack."
.'What do you want of your knapsack?"
inquired the head lady of the band of nurses.
81 want my knapsack," again said the dy-
ing young man.
His knapsack was brought to him, and as
he took it his eyes CLEANED with pleasure,
and his face was covered with smile, as he
brought out from it its hidden treasures.
There" said he, that is a Bible from
my mother. And this-W Washington fare
we'll address-is The gift of my father. And
this"-his voice failed.
The nurse then looked down to see what
was there, aud beheld the face of beauti-
full maiden.
"Now," said the dying young soldier, 81
want you to put all these under my pillow
She did as she was requested, and the
young man laid him down upon them to die,
requesting that they might be sent to his
parents when he had gone. Calm and joy
full was his death. The pure spirits of those
long departed were beckoning him on. i
was only going from night to endless day
from death to eternal and glorious life
Such was the young soldiers death.

Not Rndly put.

Somebody we do not know who, has started the
follow ing suggestive paragraph afoat on the sea of
newspaper literature, and we clip it as very sug-
gestive to say the least
There two kinds of girls. One is the kind
that appears best abroad - the girls that are good
for parties, rides, visits, balls, ETC., and whose
chief delight is such things. The other is that
kind that appears best at home - the girls that
are usefu! and cheerful in the dining room, the
sick room, and all the precincts of home. They
differ widely in character. One is often torment
at home, the other is blessing. One is a moth,
consuming everything about her the other is a
sunbeam, inspiring life and gladness all along her
pathway.

CONSCIENCE Taylor says warE-
ing conscience goes before gnawing con-
science.
All, how many young people would save
themselves the sorrows and regrets OF
years if they would only take heed to the
light and instruction of conscience.
Ii is an inward light; no one but the in
dividual himself is responsible for its faith
full and frequent reproofs.
True, it ceases to speak or warn after II
has been treated with neglect or contempt.
How often we hear the aged sinner say,
/ do not feel as once did cannot feel
now" No, that kind friend which stood
on the side of right, and was ready to
second all the light of the Holy Spirit, has
ceased his friendly aid, and bitter regrets
now fill that heart which might have been
buoyant with hope in obedience to light and
| truth.
| Disobedience is a costly sin.

The Soldiers, Families.

II is the very least that those who remain at
home can do to see that the families of the volun-
teers do not suffer in the absence Of husbands and
brothers to fight the battles of the country There
are probably but few necessitous cases now, but
there may be quite number before cold weather
comes on. To be prepared systematically to care
for them, look after their necessities and discrim
nate between those who are really needy and those
who are not; organization is absolutely necessary.
1t cannot be done single day too soon.

A SugsestiOn.

IT has been suggested that in view of the times
and the necessity of the people, being prepared for
any and every emergency, that each OF the towns

since these remedies introduced into this sec

those of all other medicines for which he is agent

stood the test Of practical experience. We know
this not only from the mouths Of others, but we
have used them in our own family with the very
