DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE.

When the misguided and imprudent votary Of pleas
ure finds that he has imbbed the seeds OF this painful
di sease it too often happens that an -tmed sense o.
shame, dread of discovery deters him from applying
to those who, from education and responsibility, can
alone befrlend HIM, delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this hord disease make their appearance
pains in the head and limbs dimness of sight, Deafness
nodes on the shn-bones and arms, botches on the
head face and extremities, progressing with fghtful
rapidity, till at last the palate Of the mouth or the
disease becomes horrd object of commseration, till
death puts period to his dreadful suerngs, by send
ing him to Chat Undiscovered Country from whence
no traveller returns"
It melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to
this terrible owing to the unsklfulness Of ig
norsnt pretenders who by the use Of that Deadly Poi
son, Mercury ruin the constitution and make the resi-.
due Of life miserable.

The saidy Morgan had $500 men when
be came in, that he was attacked by
largely superior numbers and lost 30O
and thirty killed. What Lad become of
Morgan and the balance of his CON-
mand they did not know. They were
making their way to Dixie as best they
could.
A citizen who came upon the officers
while discussing the question of attack
ing the town, told them that gunboat
was at hand and volunteered the advice
shat if the place was attacked the town
would be destroyed BY shells from the
gunboat, whereupon they decided not
to imperil the existence of the place BY
Bringing on it the fire of the gunboat,
and then departed
1t is supposed by many that the de-
mand was made for a surrender, with
the understanding among themselves
that If the place surrendered j. would
be that much gained without loss, and if
not surrendered, no attack would be
made, and no loss sustained. They ate
and fed with farmers a few miles from
town. We have heard of no damage
done by them beyond eating, feeding,
and swapping horses occasionally, and
we suppose, someti mes, appropriating 3
steed without leaving one instead.
4 score of shots were fred at long
range st the piekets knocking up the
dust quarter Of a mile short Of them.
Our citizens are indebted for exemption
from whatever Of evil We have escaped
to the determination Of Colonels Me-
Henry and Woodward and the small
force Of 60 or so State troops not to
surrender.

hundred and eighty thousand dollars. "
I" They would have to see the head Of
the hsuse," and were shown to bic pri-
vate room. Informed of the state OF
the case, the head of the house admitted
that hs was paying 2l0, but could not
pay it for that amount. He was sure
that gold couldn't kespup, that it would
certainly be below 200 tomorrow, and,
in fact this good-natured tradesman pre-
ferred, rather than buy the gold, to re-
commend his customers TO his neighbor.
So the two gentlemen went to the other
broker. He was also buying at 2l0, and
selling at ZIG, and was as little anxious
to bay . large sam at his own price as
bis neighbor had besn.. He knew that
gold would be below 200 to morrow !"
Well, if il was to fall, the two gentle
men would like to sell now on the best
terms they could get "What would be
giveY' He didn't know. He would
prefer not to buy IT at all " As there
was no third broken for the gentlemen
to be com mnsnded 10, they were merely
bowed ont, and left Wall street some
what enlightened as to what was not the
price of gold.
A more unnecessary excitement than
that which has succeeded the passage OF
this bill can scarcely be conceived, hence
it follows that it must be short-lived.
While We have not favored gold Legis-
lation, we believe that Congress honestly
thought that there were good reasons
for the passage of the gold bill, and we
therefore trust that it will not be fright
sned by the demand Of any committee,
into any concessions from what it con-
ceivss to be its fall duty in the premises
There is no doubt that the gold bill was
intended as public bensft If neces-
sary, let it be 80 modified as to insure
that result--bus eoacede nothing more
at least until the bill has been fairly
trisd-and lis merits and demerits have
become self evident We may add that
it has come to orr knowledge that gen
tlsman yesterday endeavored to sell
100000 in gold, and could get no bid
at over 200 per cent--and we believe the
majority were ander that fgsre. Itis
evident that zlo to 2206230 have been
paid only for little dribbles.

hunted up the old roads to Richmond,

raid upon a water tank, and he may cap

carry cities. We have gates upon the

Reasons Why I'D Abe Should be Re.

Editors Journal:
Since writing my last article on this
subject, Old Abe has been nominated as
the Union candidate for the Presidency,
and that sterling patriot and statesman,
Andrew Johnson, Of Tennessee, has re-
ceived the nomination for the Vice
Presidency
= In what reasons, therefore, may
give hereafter, why Old Abe should be
reelected, / shall, of courae, mean the
election of the whole ticket Bat
g word to the reader: Hitherto

I shall do this no more, for, siR, the
nomination, reasons for the election Of
our ticket hevs become as 'the stars of
the sky for multitude" Another great
reason now looms up that oaght to be
potent with every truly loyal man in the
country-I mean every man who loves
country better than party. Old Abe is
the nominee of the people: not the nom-
inee of caucus of sore-headed politics
lana Not the nominee of the Republi-
can party, but the nominee of the Union
party, composed of the good men of all
the old political organizations who are
determined to stand by the old flag, and
support the constituted authorities of the
Government of the United States in this
hour of trial
Another strong reason why we should
re-elect Mr. Lincoln 10 found in the fact,
that of oil the men in the North be is
the most odious TO the so-called Confed.

The more we learn with regard to the
matter, the more firmly do we become
convinced that the great excitement ia
gold and the extreme prices which have
been quoted during the past few days,
have had no reliable basis, but have
been simply the result of dodge resort
ed 10 by certain of the "ring" with the
view of Frightening Congress into q re-
cession from the position which It has
assumed. It is well knowa that many of
the operators" who sold "short" previ-
Gus to the adoption Of the gold bill, have
been performing the circle of the ring
trying to procure gold to fill their con-
tracts, and al sorts Of unreliable quota
tions have been freely circulated for ef-
