DEAR Sir. In the absence of 7


DEAR Sir: In the absence of His
Excellcncy, the Governor, l have the
honor to acknowledge the receipt of
the 9th inst, and to say that the
local bounty was paid, under orders
of tho War Department, to the U. S.
Payinastor. This was to guard as
far as possible aoainsi dcscrtion.--
The money was TO be returned TO the
recruits on the first pay day in the
field, or forwarded through the State
and County Treasures, to such per-
sons as they may have made assign
mcnts to, through our pay agents. -
But this could not come into the
hands of the pay agents, until infor-
nation was received by the u. 5.
officers here, of the deserters from
the Regiment on away to the front.
AS soon thereafter rs the papers
could be prepared, cur agent could
receive the money from the Pay
master, certify the same into the State
Treasury, and in q few days it could
be distributed to the respective Coun-
ty Treasures, for disbursement to
the various parts to whom it had been
assigned. The officers and their
clerks are now at work on the l93d
Regiment This will be completed
this week or next. The 194th will
next command attention, and so on
consccutively, until all are DONE
The 19Tth cannot be reached for sew
eral weeks, but no delay will be al
lowed on the part of any one the
Governor can control.
Very respectfully,
SIDNEY. ID. MAXWELL, A. ID. @.

Internal Revenue.

Internal Revenue.
ID. B. Beardsley Esq, Deputy Col
lector for this district, informs us
that a man in Seneca county, Ohio,
made false return of his property to
the Assessor. 1t was found out, and
he was fined some $4,000 and impris-
oned for thirty days. He returned
his property three hundred dollars
short OF wnat Il ought to have been.
There are some seventeen more men
in that county, who are suspected of
making false returns, and they will
be brought to justice if it is proven
against them. THIS should be q
warning to any who are disposed to
make false returns, and peUurc them
selves. The law is very severe, and
no mercy is shown TO delinquents.

AUTUMN.
From the New York Times,

rEOm the new xOrk Times.
To myriads who have gasped through the
late terribly hot season, the sudden change Is
most grateful; but there are too many who
shrink with apprehension at the first breath OF
the Frost King, and who, in these days OF ex-
aggerated prices, look in almost hopeless dis
may upon the advent of winter. Yet there are
warm DAYS in store The traditional equinec-
tial storm will soon do its utmost; then Will
come the fair, hszy skies the long, dreamy
days the genial, warm and mellow evenings,
and the voiuptuous nights of the glorious In
dian Summer; then will the solemn woods put
ON the robes ofdecay, and glow like o sea Of
shipWrecked raiGbows in the magnificent Co
lors peculiar to our country, and the fiery cor
onets of the maple and the beech, the multi
shaded browns of the oak, and the everlasting
green of the pine and the spruce, will mingle
in that gorgeous picture which annually aston.
ishes and defes the magic of art-then, in
deed will be Autumn.
Tis Autumn, and the fading leaves
Sail slowly down upon the wind,
Leaving, like Death when he bereaves,
The living germ of hope behind;
It's Autumn, and the sun is dim,
His summer fire is nearly gone;
The breeze walls ont mournful hymn,
And all the earth Is sad and lone.
It's Autumn over land and main
A vail of azure haze Is thrown,
As If the parent heaven again
Had claimed our planet for its own;
And the blue vestments of the sky
For garniture of glory given,
I'LL scarcely can the straining eye
Tell which is earth or which Is heaven.

Suffering In South Carolina.

A Sister of Mercy at Charleston, thus
writes to a lady friend concerning the
destitution in that city and State:
Every phase of life las been so up
turned here that the once rich, who were
wont to assist the poor, are now wretch
edly poor themselves, and are grateful for
q little of the common necessaries OF life
when given to then,. We have called
upon the Northern s,1 s,1sekeepers here, and
received some assistance from them, but
we cannot call too often. Few of our
own people are able to go into business.
None can afford to give at present, though
the will is good. II, my dear lady, You
can do aught in this emergency, You will
perform q great act of charity. Gould
you see these people as We do, your heart
would ache.
Sad eyes swimming in tears little deli
cate hands, skinned from the washtnb, and
hearts without hope for the future. saw
last week lady, one of the wealthiest q
short time ago, lying on miserable pallet,
the room without furniture, where she once
had every comfort. The house had been
stripped of everything, linen, plate, wines,
all gone; her limbs were covered with
sores, occasioned by anxiety Of mind and
poverty of blood; the result of almost
starvation. Were this an isolated case, it
could be relieved, but, unfortunately, the
city abounds in them. The planters for
miles around are homeless, and are COM
PEELED to take refuge in the city, without
any means of subsistence.

D balm for hearts lacerated by the lossof dar

They are going-only going
Out Of pain and into bliss,
Out of sad and sinful weakness
Into perfect holiness.
Snowy brows-no care shall shade them !;
Bright eyes-tean shall never dim $
Rosy lips-no time shall fade them:
Jesus called them unto Him.

Little feet by angels guided
Never forbidden wayr

Stephen c. was a jovial soul, and
hesitated not to play trick on any one.
Among his acquaintances was q young
lady and young man, both of whom
stammered very badly. They were not
acquainted with each other.
Bob F., the young man alluded to,
was quite sensitive; and to think that any
one was making fun of his defect made
him frequently fly into passion. It was
Stephens fortune to meet both of them at
g.. party, and he soon determined on q
joke.
"Miss Sue," said be, approaching his
lady friend, "may / have the pleasure of
introducing you to one of my acquain-
tances. worthy young gentleman r.

"Bob, old fellow, here is . nice girl l
want to introduce you to. Come on.
"Does she taw-taw-talk."
"Yes like blazes2"
30 on they started, and soon approached
the seat OF the lady. Stephen introduced
them, and Immediately withdrew to one
side that he might see how they would

"Th-th-thank you, pleasantly, but 1t is

Bobs brow contracted, but be restrain

with most of these pr-pr presents"
"Ye-ye-ye-y-e-s sir, with all, ! be-be-

But that smile ruined her forever in
Bobs estimation; for hastily rising, he
exclaimed
"By th-th-thunder madam, if that's
the way you make f-f-f-f-fun of f-f-fel-
lows infrmities, you may 60 70 gr-er-

Stephen laughed immodegately all the
time, and was subsequently called to ac-
count for the trick; but bis good nature
drove away all bad feelings.

A New Way TO- Get Yo0ng and
Handsome Wife.

A Garafraxa correspondent of the.
Guelph Canada West) Adoeraser gets
off tho following:
The young men in one OF our neighbor-
ing townships recently experienced q con-
siderable amount of chagrin when the fact
became known that an old gray-headed
widower had been married to one of the
most beautiful young women in this part
of the country. As the affair appeared
rather singular, some persons have been.
induced to make inquiries respecting the
manner in which the courtship was COD
Quoted, and certainly, if their account be
true, they have been well repaid for their
labor. They say that the first step taken
by the aged lover was to get an old gipsy
to 60 and tell the young lady 3 fortune, he
having dictated the words, which were as
follows: MY dear young lady, your star
will soon be hid for short time by q very
dark cloud, but when it re-appears it will
continue to shine with uninterrupted splen-
dor until the end of your days Before
one week, wealthy old wldower, wearing
suit of black clothes and fine castor
hat, will pay you q visit and request your
hand in marriage. You will accept his
offer, become his wife, and be left widow
in the possession of all bis property before
the close Of this year. Your next hus-
band will be young man of whom you
think most at present" :" Three days after,
the old gentleman, being dressed in the
manner described by the gypsy, presented
himself to the young lady, obtained her
consent, soon after had the marriage cere-
mony performed, and thus became the
pessessor of one Of the prettsest little
wives on this side Of Guelph or any other
place.
