ConnubiaI Afection.

In aelghboring town, not long ago,
lived Aunt Keziah an industrious and
thriving widow. She had not only kept
good her estate, but had increased it
much in value, and she loved to refer
to it as ssthe little home that Daniel had
left her."
One day the aincome man" came
along and carried off some of that little
boarded treasure. and she wept as she
counted out the bills on which her part
ner's fingers had once rested; so sacred
ly does the heart cling to the memories
of the departed. H
A few hours afterwards she was at
the table kneading bread, and evidently
thinking of the lost one, when her niece
said &:
aAunty, now you're prosperous and
well to do, let's get some pretty tomb
stones for good uncle Daniel, you know
he has got none at his grave"
Aunt Keziah lifted up her doughty
hands and emphasized this touching ex-
preston:
"Jane, if they soaat anything of Dan
iel at the Judgment, they can find him
aoitsout a guide. board. I tell you he'll

How goes the money ?-Well,
I'm sure itisn't hard to tell;

For bread and butter, coal and CRATES,
Hats, caps and carpet, hoops and hose,
And that's the way the money goesl
How goes the money?-Nay, aI
Don't everybody know the way?
1t goes for bonnets, coats and capes,
Silks, satins, muslins, velvets, grapes, :.
Shawls, ribbons, furs, furbelows,
And that's the way money goes.
How goes the money Sure,
wish the ways were somewhat fewer
1t goes for wages, taxes, debts;
1t goes for presents, goes for bets,
For paints, pomade and eau de rose;
And that's s the way the money goes.
How goes the money?-Now,
I've scarce begun to mention how
1t goes for feathers, laces, rings.
Toys, dolls and other baby things,
Whips, whistles, candies, bellsand bows,
And that's the way the money goes.
How goes the money Come,
/ know it don't 60 for rum;
1t goes for schools and Sabbath chimes,
It goes for charity sometimes,
For missions and such things as those,
And that's the way the money goes.
How goes the money ?-There,
I'm out of patience, declare!
1t goes for plays and diamond pins,
For public aims and private sins,
For hollow shams and silly shows,
And that's $ the way the money goes. s.

HENRY CLAY.
Mothers, learn here lesson. Look
at your sons and daughters and realize
this important truth, that in the nursery
is laid the foundation Of your child's

to play the empty headed coxcomb, and

teach them the path of true greatness

They are, with few exceptions, those
who in infancy learned to clasp their
tiny hands and kneel at mothers side,
and dedicated their hearts to the Father
of spirits. n
A mothers hallowed influence never
dies. The boy never forgets the moth
er's love. Though he may wander far
from home, and engage in many vices,
yet that mothers voice, soft and tender,
that fell upon his ear in infancy. is borne
upon many a passing breeze, and whisn-

pray and reverence the GoD of mercy"

woman, when her noble son, upon the
bed of death, is heard calling for s'my

for the lips of one who owned his great
ness to the maternal care of mothers

Mothers, do you wish your sons to
honor You in the busy conflicts of life,
to be ornaments to society, to call upon
you in the cold hour of death? Then
act to them a mothers part-teach them
the way of VIRTUE, Of MORALITY, and

A Report having been circulated to the
N effect that at recent meeting of the
Physicians of this place, the charges were
advanced to 50. so for Town visits, and $500

The rate of charging is now just what it has
been for the past two or three years, and
may be stated as follows.
For visits in the Town, $1.00, except In
cases of protracted sickness, or where more
than one visit is made in one day; in such
event reduction is made.
For visitsinto the country under mile $1.50

1t is apparent to every body that
our poor old Constitution which has run
a long time without needing repairs, is
now in such condition that will not go
any longer, and every body wants to
patch it,. But I think we had better
have new one, patchwork never sui
ted my taste) and in these very small
affair will answer every purpose. An
article or two about white and colored
people will cover the whole ground, if
there should be a few little matters,
such as national or State economy, or
foreign relations, or commercial interests
and some other unimportant things,
they could be left to the President and
7 Congress. It does not make any diff
ference, you know, what they do
whether Constitutionally or otherwise
It is only necessary to require.
J. Every freedman shall have bu-
reau for himself, with a looking glass on
the top, if he wants it. a
2. Every freedman shall have sec
retary.
8. Every freed boy or girl shall have
a wardrobe.
4, Every freed child shall have what
ever it cries for.
5. White people whether free or not,
must behave themselves.
6. All people, of every color, Except
red, must vote.
Z. Every free white male citizen of
the age of twenty lone hundred years or
under, and of sound mind or otherwise,
may vote, if he will take the oath that
he would be a negro if he could.
This can beset neatly in framework
referring to the course of inhuman
events and oramented with border al
luding to the common offense and wei
fare Of Generals, and all that, so that it
would answer for declaration Of Inde-
pendence and new Constitution.-
Now, if all this is not exactly in form
and Of proper substance it can be placed
in the hands of Thaddeus, of Warsaw,
Black j. Bobenridge, and some more,
and if they cant arrange it satisfactorily
let them call Mr.. Oldnick to there assiis-
tance, which will insure success.
