Among the most determined treason-1oying
Copperheads In the United States, is James
". Wall, Of New jersey. For this he was for
some time an inmate Of Fort Lafayette, aud
more recently, for brief period, an occu-
pant OF sent In the United States Senate.
His father was Hon. Garret D. Wall, who re-
presented New jersey in the United States
Senate. During the war Of 1874. the father
was a leading Federalist, and wrote pamph-
let On that war, from which ithe Newark Mr.
cury makes liberal extracts, from which we
give few specimen bricks How like they
are to whit We now daily meet In the Copper
head journals:

able to do considerable damage to our gun

Railroad a few miles below Media. De
putty Provost Marshals Christlnan and
Cummins, with suitable guard, had il
Charge squad Of substitutes, whom,

narkably orderly aud we'll behaved, aud as
the cars were in full motion, passing over

Conductor says-thirty- five miles per
hour, no thoughts of attempted escape

But, almost in the twinklin! of an eye, IL

A Gem Of a Relic

| Our attention has been lately called to
what is really a great curiosity. Some
men who were either ploughing in field,
or working in the rubbish of an old build
ing lately torn down, found what appeared
TO De block of wood, nearly three inches
square. II lay in the dirt for several days
till one, more inqoisitive than the others,
turned it1over and discovered it to be a
box. This outer box appears to be some
composition metal resembling copper, but
somwhat corroded. r.,, ,a. l.q ,..s,-
w hen this much was made known, Gu
rlosity was excited, and on further efforts
it was found that inside was another box;
this was plated with silver; nothing was
found here, but on unscrewipg what seems
10 he a lid, is displayed the gem, which is
a likeness of man, done up about the
size of a large size cameo breastpiu, aud
resembles beautiful ambrotype, but is
sort Of painting on glass, and of most ex 8
quisite fneness. The figure is dressed in
an embroidered coat, rufAed shirt, and
powdered wig. The portrait has gold
rim RIM around and little ring on the end,
it evidently having been worn around the
neck as an ornament.
When examined by a maguifying glass
you would be surprised at the perfection
of the likeness, and the beauty and smooth
uess of its execution. It is really gem.
Who Is it how it came there or its his
tory is all yet mystery. The piece of
velvet on which the picture rests is old,
faded, and looks as if worn out. Wheth-
er it is the portrait of some of the distin.
guisbed men Of this country cannot be
tod it was taken at time when the
English fashions preva led. 1t was found
on the property of Judge Hunsicker, at
Black Rock. Pboeni.c.

KIND HEARTS.

Let but the heart he beautiful,
And care not for the face,
| care not though the form may want
Pride, dignity, Oh grace.
Let the mind be filed with glowing thoughts
And the soul wi h sympathy,
And care not if the check be pale,
Or the eye lack brilliancy.
What though the cheek be beautiful,
1t soou must lose its bloom;
The eyes bright lustie soon will fade
In the dark and silent tomb:
But the glory of the mind will live
Though the joyous life depart, ..
And the magic charm can never die
Of true and noble heart
The lips that utter gentle words
Have II beauty all their own,
And more prize kindly voice
Than muSic's sweetest tone
And though its sounds are harsh and shrill,
. If the heart within bears free, .| .
And echoes back each glad impulse,
TITS all the world to me.

the speaker slandered Lindley Murray

SAFE MAxIMs FOR ALL.-The world
estimates men by success in life; and BY
general consent, success is evidence of SUI.
periority. Never, under any circumstance,
assume responsibility you can avoid con-
sistently with your duty to yourselves and
others. Base all your actiuns upon priu-
ciple of right; preserve your integrity of
character III doing this !; never reckon the
east. Remember that self interest is more
likely to warp your Judgment than all
other circumstances combined, therefore
ook well where your duty is concerned.
Never make money at the expense of your
reputation. Be neither lavish nor Mig
gardly-of the two avoid the latter, a
mean man is universally despised but
public favor is stopping stone to prefer
nent, therefore generous feeling should be
cultivated Let your expense be such as
to leave balance in your pocket ready
money for a friend in need. Keep clear
Of the law, for when you gain your case
you are generally the loser of money
Never relate your mistortunes, and never
grieve over what you cannot prevent
No man who owes as much as lie can pay,
has any moral ii sht 10 end rise for another.

PRESIDENT LrNcoLN's JOKES ON THE
Missouri AND KANSAS DIFFICULTY
Mr.. Lincoln's last story is in reference to
the Missouri and Kansas troubles, got up
by the border ruffian Jim Lane and Mis-
sduri radicals. The President states that
il reminded him of a certain field Of land
that he titled when he was farming. He
had one large fine field Of splendid land. 1t
was one that he thought great deal Of /;
most of it was magn itcent land and easily
iilled, But in one end of the lot there
were few acres covered with pine
stuinps, that greatly annoyed him. These
stumps were SO hard that it was impossi-
bic to pull them out they were so wet
that it was impossible to burn them out.
The result was that he had to pillow around
them. "So," says the Presidents, Il
shall be compelled to do with this Kansas
and Missouri imbroglio-plow around
them" '.4 ,ss''
