SrR CHRIsToPHER TAwNY has some won
derful old port wine, which, he says, he
laid down at the time of the birth of his
eldest daughter; the wine is undoubtedly
remarkably fine; bat the most wonderful

thirty-two years old, the young lady, who is
still unmarried, is only just entering her

Church that he has so largely preserved the
lives of our young men who went forth to

Gus Roy.

We lately saw an advertisement headed as
| above. 1t conveys to every boy an impress
sive moral lesson.
An honest industrious boy" is always
wanted. He viii be sought for, his services
will be on demand; he will be respected and
loved; he is spoken of in terms of high COM
mendation; he win always have home, he
will grow up to be man of known worth
and established character,
He viii be wanted. The merchant will
want him for salesman or clerk, the mas
ter mechanic will want him for an apprent-
ice or a journeyman; those with a job to let
will want him for contractor clients Will
want him for lawyer, patients will want
him for doctor; parents for teacher of
their children; and the people for an officer
He will be wanted. Townsmen will want
him for citizen; acquaintances, as neigh
Dor; neighbors as a friend; families as visi-
tor; the world as an acquaintance, nav, girls
will want him for beau, and finally for
husband.
An honest, industrious boyl just think
of it, boys, will you answer this description2
Can you apply for this situation? Are you
sure that you will be wanted2 You may be
smart and active, but that does not fill the
reauisition-are you honest2 You may be

A statement having appeared IN the New
York Herald that Gov. Peirpoint intended TO
change the policy he. has adopted, in relation
to the restoration of affairs in Virginia, that
gentleman has assured the Richmond Wing
that there is no truth i'll the statement and
the Wing says that Governor T. has been,
IL the last few days. more senslbly confirmed
in the wisdom OF his views and policy than
ever. =
In response to a call upon him, in Washing
ton yesterday, Secretary Harlan said =" Many
were severe in tier criticisms on the plans OF
President johnson for the reorganization of
the different Southern States; that they asser
ted he was pursuing an entirely different mode
from that adopted by the late lamented Presi
dent. Mr.. Harlan went on to show that Presl
dent johnson was and is carrying out President
Lincoln's programme in this respect to the
letter, excepting only such cases in which the
change of time had rendered it absolutely
necessary for him to depart from Mr.. Lincoln's
policy; and in such instances the variance was
perfectly immaterial. y
Mrs Maria Thornton, widow of the celebra
