EmploYment.

For upwards of three years past, l have
been engaged in business, whcn has yielded
me at the rate Of Three Thousand Dollars per
amman, but being desirous of going to Europe
ia the course of few months for the purpose
of there introducing the business, am willing
to teach il to ally one who will send me One
Dollar. The business is no humbug, but of a
highly useful and general character, adapted
both 20 cities and villages, and one that any
person of ordinary capacity, young or old,
male or female, can acquire with a few hours
practice, and by which they can secure a very
handsome income, Several young ladies who
have received instructions from me, both in
New York State and Pennsylvania, are earn
ing upwards of Fifteen Dollars per week by it,
and there is no reason why any one else can
net do the same. lnvalids, even, can do well
by it, as it is o peddling affair, but business
that is perfectly respectable. Gentlemen and
ladies Of leisure who would like to learn the
business for their owG amusement or pleasure
will find the practice Of it pleasant pastime
and one that they will take great interest in.
On receipt of One Dollar Will send printed
instructions by which any person can readily
acquire the art, and these instructions will
also contain every particular relative to the
carrying it on SO that it will be highly profit
able. The purchaser of the "printed instruc-
tions" will also be authorized to teach it to
others and have sometimes received as high
as Two Hundred Dollars for teaching it per-
sOnally to a single individual. would state
further, that Two Dollars and Fifty Gents or
Three Dollars will buy everything that is
necessary to commence the business WITH
and the articles can be got almost anywhere,
in city or country, or, if preferred, l can fur
nish them. Address,

South was undertaken. These words were
inscribed upon the Yankee banners at Manas-

for the purpose OF stimulating the reckless. the

unlimited sway to their children and wards,
that there is great danger in leaping on the

future, due precaution may be taken. Many

RED from like imprudence, and we hope that
this warning may be duly considered by all

were all taken down, for the purpose of ma
king cannon for the use of our brave defend
ers The sounds of these bells, which has for
many years summoned our people to the house
of God, will be heard no more. The delight
full harmony they sent forth every Sabbath
morning, and their merry peal, on occasions of
rejoicing. as well the docful knell as tolled at
the funeral of departed friends, are hushcd
forever. What but the deepest and most
intense interest in the great conflict in
which we are engaged, could induce people
to part with their bells. around which SO many
associations cluster. We wish they may be-,

means of dealing death and destruction to our
enemies. Lot them know we arc terribly in
