AT HoME,-A number of the boys of
Company &, 65th Regiment have arrived
at home after faithfully serving out their
three years. Among those who have re-
turned to this vicinity is l.. r. HoAGLAND,
Esq. He has stood soldering first rate; mas
been absent over three years without once
placing foot upon his native heath. Some
public token Of kindly regards should be

would be difficult to get up a demonstration
in their behalf

The DONATION PARTY. The donation
for the families of soldiers and others in
need of this place, which we spoke of last
week, has been pretty generally talked Of,
but no organization has been made. 1t is
now proposed to have the donation next
Saturday week, the day before new years. -
And forthe purpose of making arrangements
meeting will be held at the Court House
next Saturday evening. We hope to see a
general turnout and full preparation made
for having the donation grand one. Let
the masses prepare to give Of their abund-
ance for the relief of the needy. To minister
to the destitute blesses the giver and the re-
ceiver. Charity is the noblest trait that
dwells in the human breast. 1t spreads
happiness on earth and extends beyond the
grave, through boundless realms of eternity.
1t is like seed sown in good ground, that
yields an hundred fold Like bread cast up
on the waters, it will return after many
days.

BRouGnT TO LIMERICK. One evening
last week a young man named MoREHEAD
came to town, ordered his supper at the
Empire House at an unusual hour; the ac-
commodatiug landlord had fires built and a
supper prepared and about that time Mr..
MoREHEAD left without eating or paying.
Last Saturday the young man again journed
this way, and Mr. FLEMING requested him
to pay for the supper, whereupon he told
Mr.. +. to go to HI. Mr. FLEMING con-
cluded not to go to the particular place des-
ignated, but he went to Esquire JUSTICE,
procured summon and handed it to shcr-
if NELSON who duly executed it according
to law. Soon the delinquent MoREHEAD
appeared before Esquire JUSTICE, plead the
''baby act" for while but finally paid the
bill and one dollar costs.

owing to the high price of everything, we are
compelled To increase the price of subscription
or require pny in advance.
We lose every year from 500 to 5000 by sub
scribers who never pay. This saved, ana the
use of the money paid in advance, we hope, Will
enable us to keep up the paper at $500 IA year.
We do not think II altogether right to charge
paying subscribers enough to make up what we
lose by non-paying ones, But we must do so or
have no delinquents.
We have therefore determined to adopt the
advance system commencing with the next
volume, which will be about the 10th of Febru-
airy. At that time all who have not payed in
advance will have their papers stopped. And
after that time papers will always be stopped
when the time paid for expires.
Many of our subscribers may wish to pay be-
fore the 10th of February, and for the convent
ence of those who will not be in town, we have
appointed the following agents who will receipt
for any money paid:

COOP Policy FOR PROPERTY OWNERS.
Every person who owns property should
have it insured in some responsible com

the Etna Insurance Company, of Hartford,
Conn. They manage their business proper

have feeling of confidence when he holds
their policy that is invaluable and worth
more than it costs. Our readers who are
not yet insured in the Ktna should call at
once on Mr.. A. j. BELL, agent, and get him

passionate and fond of fun. He will de-
vote himself to politics, be beloved by his

He will buy his clothing where good bar
