A SINGULAR HIGHWAY Robbery.

A few evenings since, as a young gen
tleman was walking on the Common, he
came IN contact with a person going in
another direction. Both begged pardon
and passed on. A moment after it occur
red to our hero that there might be some
thing wrong, and he instinctively put his
hand In his Watch-poeket and found that
his repeater was gone. Turning round,
he saw the person whom he had suddenly
met walking at a leisurely pace, a short
distance from him. GFasDing his revol-
yer purchased in gaTToting times) he ran
towards the robber, came up to him. drew
his revolver and placed it In Incomforta-
bic contact with his head, and, in Ian
guage more forcible than elegant, deman-
ded his gold hunter, assuring him that
should he hesitate an instant, he should
pull the trigger, and cause a miscellane-
Gus scattering of his brains thereabouts.
The supposed robber unhesitatingly took
out a watch, and gave it to his dangerous
opponent, and got out of his way as quick
as possible.
With infinite satisfaction and thankful
ness the young gentleman put the watch
into his pocket, and, In fever of excite
ment at his adventure, walked home. On
his arrival there his mother noticed the
eXcitementwhich he was under, and asked
him the reason of it, whereupon he mar
rated to her the circumstances of the rob
berry, and recovery of his watch. Why, ="
said she, your watch is in your room,
where you left it after changing your
clothes before you went out n The
young man was dumb-founded, took out
the watch from his pocket with a spas
mOdic tWitch, and on beholding it became
still more. excited, for it was not his He
went to his room and found his own
watch where he had left it.
He looked into the glass aud saw high
way robber. Visions Of policemen, hand
cuffs, Police Court, Superior Criminal
Court, Judge Russell, a light sentence in
the State prison for the first offense, &c,
crowded into his Imagination in uncom-
Portable and regular order. As soon as
possible, however, he advertised his
il-gotton watch, and took other meas
ures, hoping to live to ask the pardon of
his victim, whom he unintentionally rob
bed, but at last accounts nothing had
been heard of him, 80 that be fears he
may be compelled to keep the watch as a
trophy of mutual fright.-BOstOn Trans

HOZTE.

Man is a local being. While he natur-
ally loves travelling, yet he wants one
spot of earth upon which his affections
are centered, and where he can find rest
from the conflicts and troubles of life. We
did not create ourselves, nor can we
change the nature of things. What we
are, and how we should live, has been de
signed by our Maker. Our natural wants,
therefore, are fixed and imperative. Nor
can we be happy unless we live in harmo-
ny with the design of our Maker, and the
law Of our being. And here let US say
that pleasant home is the central want
Of man, and the great essential to his hap
piness. "Be it ever so humble, there's no
place like home" If you have no home.
rest not until you have secured one
What is not embraced in the word home.
We are aware that there are other things
which we must have in order to be happy.
We must have health. Our bodies and
minds must be free from disease. We
must be honest, temperate, industrious,
and we must love the true, the beautiful,
and the good. Our stomachs must be free
from dyspepsia, our joints from rheuma-
tisn, our nerves from neuralgia, our
hearts from moral pollution, and our
tongues from guile. Also, we must have
con genial emplOyments, and all relations
in life must be good. We must be true in
all things-true to ourselves, to our fami-
lies, to our neighbors, to our country, and
to our Maker. There is no happiness with
out loyalty 70 truth and right. But while
all this is true, yet mans highest happi-
ness is centered in sweet and lovely
home. We know many homes are not
what they should be, still a poor home is
far better than no home at all. Home, be
it ever so humble, is a place of refuge
Our homes are generally what we make
them. If the father and mother, brother
and sister, are not Industrious, economi-
cal, kind and loving to each other, home is
dark and dreary. Industry, fidelity, tenn
perance, cleanliness, purity, amusement,
competency, and love, are some of the es-
sentials of a true home. Wealth alone
does not make home all it should be. A
home IN poverty, industry, and love, is far
better than one in riches, 1aziness, hate
and contention. Love, gentleness, and
words of kindness-how sweet they are in
the home circle. And how grateful we
should be for our homes. These are the
greatest blessing we enjoy, and we should
be more thankful for them than anything
else. And as no man or woman can be
/ contented and happy without a home,
therefore it is the duty of alI-even in the
forepart of Iife-to make pleasant homes
/ in which to enjoy the purest bliss of this
life, and prepare for our final home in
/ CHAT celestial temple not made with hands,
/ eternal in the heavens"

THE sMITH FAMILY.

In the city directory of Philadelphia
are the names of eleven hundred and
eighty members of the Smith family. Of
this number, sixty-tWo are J ohm Smiths
straight, and seventy-three are j ohm
Smiths with a variation, that is, with
other initials.
In the New York city directory the
names of one thousand seven hundred of
the Smith family appear. Of this num-
Der, one hundred and twenty are John
Smiths straight, and sixty-nine with a
variation. Granting that the names of
all the Smiths are to be found in the di-
reetOry, and that all the Smiths go to the
post Office for letters, and that letters were
directed to John Smith, New York
City, the chances that each man will get
his own would be but one In one hundred
and twenty three.
IF a writ was placed in the hands of
a police officer with no other direction
than to arrest John Smith, he might ar
rest one hundred and twenty two before
he should get the right one, and in doing
so might be compelled to travel five hun
dred miles. At last Smith is brought
into court, found guilty, and fined, i'm
prIsoned, or otherwise punished. The
OblOquy is divided, of course, among the
whole number One hundred and twenty
three men blush at the misdeeds Of one.
John Smiths house is burnt or robbed,
and one hundred and twenty-three men
are sure to receive the coincidence of their
neighbors over the disaster.
A deed is made, conveying to John
Smith valuable property. Who is the
owner of it? John Smith gets married.
Whose wife is Mrs Smith Disguised
with the plebeian sound of the name,
John Smith, of New York, applies to the
legislature of the State, now in session, to

GALL FoR 4 nATIanAL eoEVEHTIoE.

In the Washington papers of the 25th
ult-. the following call appears
A National Union Convention, of at
least two delegates from each Congress
ional District of all the States, two from
each Territory, two from the District of
Columbia, and four delegates at large
from each will be held at the citv
of Philadelphia, on the 18th of August
next Such delegates will be chosen by
the Governors of the several States, who
sustain the Administration IN maintain
ing, unbr0ken, the Union Of the States.
Delegates are asked TO agree
First--The Union IS perpetual and in
dissoluble.
Second-Equality Of States and the
right to representation are solemnly guar
anteed.
Third-No right of secession or exclu-
sion.
Fourth-Each State has to prescribe
qualifications for its own electors
Fifth-The maintenance of the right
Of each State to manage its domestic
concerns inviOlate.
1t concludes with an appeal to every
patriot to froWn upon the action of Con-
gress which can only rekindle animosities,
and to encourage peaceful and conciliato-
~ measures; But no delegate will take
seat in such convention who does not 10y

A eEHUINE KIss.

We recently read In an exchange that
a young lady in California broke her neck
while resisting an attempt made by a young
man to kiss her. This affords a sad warn
ing to the girls to submit gracefully to
such infections, and thereby save their
necks. Only see what the unfortunate
damsel was rebelliBg against Listen to
what the great Southern poet and novel
ist, VIM. Gilmore Simms, describes
kiss to be:
"A genuine, hearty, honest kiss is made
up of everything that Is good It smacks
of truth, of sensibility, or of delicate
sentiment, Of genial suseeptibilities, Of
strong natural sympathies, of ingenious
devotion, of preference of taste, of feel
ing, of an ardent yet artless nature. obey
ing the sweetest and simplest instincts of
nature, at once bashful and tender, will
ing to be won, needing the winning, yet
yielding reluctantly by the natural law
that makes coyness a sweet restraint on
Wooing, stimulating even when 1t denies,
and looking back to be followed even
when it darts away in flight. The first
kiss is the down upon the peach, the
opening of the rose bud, the blossom of
the down, the one star of the night, the
delight that makes all the future like a
dream of the Elysium, and hallOws the
home of memory, even when 1t no longer
harbors love"
Is there any girl IN this section who,
after reading the above, would emulate
the California damsel? Think of it, ''the
down upon the peach, the opening Of
the rose bud, the one star of the night, "
"the dream of the Elysium all without
money and without price Break your
necks rather than 60 without these del
icacies of the season.

FIGHT your WAK UP.


The many who have to take the world
rough and tumble are prone to envy the
few who roll through it unjolted in cush-
ioned vehicles on patent springs. The
toiler, as he stumbles through its thorny
thickets and limps over its foOt-blistering
gravel, is apt to curse the i'll luck that
placed him on such hard road, and to
sigh for a seat in one of the splendid equi-
pages that glide so smoothly over Fortunes
macadanized turnpike. Born with a
pewter spoon in his mouth, he covets the
silver one which was the birth-gift of his
do-nothing neighbor. The more fool he.
Occupation is the immediate jewel" of
life. It is true that riches are no bar to ex-
ertion. Quite the reverse when their uses
are properly understood. But the discon-
tented worker who pines for wealth with
out being willing to labor for 1t, regards
the idIeness in which it would enable him
to live as the acme of temporal happiness.
He has no idea of money as a great motive
power, to be applied in enterprises that
give healthfuI employment to mind and
body. All that he desires is to live a
feather-bed Iife-to loaf luxuriously. We
have no sympathy with such sensuous
longings. People who indulge in them
never acquire wealth. They lack the en-
ergy to break their way to the worldly in
dependence for which they yearn and
whine. They don't know how much more
glorious it is to tear afIluence from Oppos-
ing fate by main strength of viii and in
dexibility of purpose, than to receive it as
a windfan. There is infinitely more salts
faction in conquering fortune with brain
and muscle than was ever experienced by
slucky heir" in obtaining the golden
store that some thriftier hand had accumu-
lated. Your accidental Croesus knows
nothing of the pride of success-of honest
exultation with which the self-made man
looks back upon the impediments he has
overcome, and forward into the far future
which he has earned the right to enjoy.

nHnLERA PREsnRIpTlnn.

The Board of Health Of New York
recommends the following prescription
in severe cases of diarrhOea, when the ser
vices of a physician cannot be immedl9te-
ly obtained -
Tineture Of Opium, Tincture Of Chm
phor, Tincture Of Oapsicum, Of each 1
dram; ChlOroform half dram miE and
take half a teaspoonful after every HFac-
uation This viii in most instances nRre
a diarrhea, but it does not follow that it
will cure cholera The TYPHOID symptoms
which the disease leaves behind Ut in
the system must have other treatmept;
but much has been gained when these
characteristics have been overcome. BY
the use of the above remedy until a
patient can be seen by physician, a re-
coYery may occur which would be hope
less if the disease were permitted togo
unchecked into full or even partial col
lapse. -,:.

HEART REHpIna ACCIDENT.

We learn from Mr. Amos Miller, of
our place, of very sad and fatal accident
that happened at Spring Hills, on Wed
nesday evening last
Miss Alice Smith, young lady, some
10 years of age, daughter of Mr. A. l..
Smith formerly of this place, went to the
well of Rev Mr.. TelfOrd, about dark.
The family of Mr.. Telford hearing the
noise of the wellbucket descending vio-
lently into the we'll, and not knowing Of
any one being at the well, went out, and
seeing no one, and finding the bucket at
the bottom, had their suspicious aroused,
and went to their neighbor's s house to see
if any one had been after water. On
learning that Miss Smith had gone to the
well, efforts were made at once to learn if
she had fallen In.
A young man went down into the we'll
and found her body at the bottom, stand
ing on the head, her neck broken, a hole
knocked in her skull, and her body badly
bruised.
The we'll is some So feet deep, and had
a very little water in it.
1t is supposed that Miss Smith, In lift
ing the bucket lost her footing, aud fell
head foremost into the we'll
The shocking accident has cast a deep
gloom over the whole community,-Be Belle

THE BOTTLE.

Young man, run your arm into an ad-
der's den, place rattlesnalle in your bo-
som, chew the berries of heIlebore, but
leave that bottle alone. Though the liquor
may glow like molten rubies, though its
beads sparkle like diamonds or amber,
though the gods may have drank it, and
poets embalmed it in immortal verse,
though it's aroma may be as pleasant as
the spice-kissing breezes of Araby the
BIest," yet avoid it as you would the
spotted leprosy. It's ruby and diamond
and amber hues are the false lights Of the
souls wreckers, and its sweet aroma is the
breath of a syren who VIII surely allure
you to destruction. Each drop contains a
devil, and in drinking ye quaff the fires of
hell. Avoid the bowl, if ye would not
perish.

cious teeth, and you will keep them and
ruin the dentist. Neglect IT, and you
viii be sorry all your lives. Children
forget Watch them. The first teeth
determine the character of the second
set. Give them equal care.
Sugar, acids, hot drinks, saleratus, are
nothing compared with food decomposing
between the teeth. Mercury may loosen
the teeth, use may wear them out, but
keep them clean and they will never de-

Dying for love is a great mistake. If
you must do something in the dying line,
dye your whiskers or your mustaches.-
That may.help the case, and is not so ex-
pensive. The following stpome'' tells a
very sensible story of an unfortunate
''Iover:"
Distracted with care, for Phillis the fair,
Young Damon, her lover, resolves in
despair,
No longer to languish,
Nor bear so much anguish;
But, mad with his love, to a precipice goes,
Where a leap from above would soon fin
ish his woes;
But when he came there, beholding how
steep
The sides did appear, and the bottom how
deep,
He sadly reflected,
That lover detected
A new lover might get;
But neck that's once broken can never
be set,
And that he would live as long as he could,
And that he could die whenever he would;
And how cruel soever his torments might
grow
He scorned to endeavor to finish them so;
And then he very wisely conclu-
Ded that he would not do
What he was going for to do.
