fernal scoundrel, id thief, or cursed
vagabond, this, that or the other neighbor
is. From bis youth up to his old age, he
has had no personal controversies without
attacking the wives, fathers, mothers,
grandmothers, graudfathers, brothers, sis.
tiers, children, uncles, aunts and nephews
of his opponents. He has sought to strew
his whole path Of life with the dark wrecks
of wantonly-ruined regulations. He has
never had On hours happiness except in
the unhappiness of others. He has ever
said to evil, "be thou my good p He has
always carefully jotted down oil that he
heard unfavorable to gentlemen while pro-
Tossing to be their friend, SO as to be ready
for the day of alienation. He bowls VEN
ON, talks venom, coughs venom, snee.
zes venom, spits venom, drools venom,
sweats venom, stinks venom, and dis.
ills venom from his nose. Not the fu-
liginous exhalations from the bottomless
pit, not the fire and birthstone fumes from
the sooty throat Of the Devil, we're ever
more blighting and blasting than his &C..
cursed serpent breath. He never had Q
friend on earth, outside of his own family.
No doubt there are those who fear him
for his iendish ferocity, but no human
being not of his own household ever loved
or respected him. He will yet have his
reward. Sowing in wrath, no will reap
in agony. Fury and hate may stiae in
his heart the feeling ofremorse for q time,
but Nemesis, with her horrid whip, will
yet soourge him around the whole orb Of
being All the hairs upon his head will
seem to him to be snakes like the Kissing
and forked-tougued locks of the Eumen-'
ides. When be shall retire, as he soon
must, from the noisy and tumultuous
strifes that have ever engaged, and still
engage all his thoughts, he will not have
a solitary pleasant and serene memory of
the past. On the contrary, story of
bitter and desoate and torturing recol.
lection will corrode and eat up his very
heart, until cut off from all human SYM
pathies, exiled from the pale of all the
beautiful genialties Of life, having no
friends or companions around him to soothe
him in his moral and physical solitude,
deserted by mankind, whose enemy he
has been, and loathed by God, whose holy
temples he has sacrilegiously deseorated by
horrid mockeries ofrsligion, fostering from
head to foot with the polluted and poison
GUS puddle.water in his veins, standing
as an outcast and pariah on the lone desert
Of despair, shrinking from the past, ago
nized by the present, and not daring to
gaze into the future, beholding in fancy
upon the door of his own soul, the
word, "Hope comes not here that comes
to all, shut out by murkiest clouds from
every star that to others lights the path
to the tomb, and writhing under the myri-
ad curses and excavations piled up Ikea
mountain of living Goals upon his head,
he shall long at last to make his escape
from earth-scarcely asking to what more
dreadful destiny.

A RASH PROMISE 1t is related Of
the Duke of Newcastle that he was so &C.
customed to make promises, that no ap.
plicant never left his presence without an
assurance of having what he solicited at
tho same time his Grace scarcely knew CT
remembered what he had been asked for.
A neighbor of his, a major in the army
called upon him on his return from abroad,
where he had had the misfortune, in Az
action, to lose his leg. "My dear major"
said his Grace, running up to him, "I'm
heartily glad to see you, and hope all
things 60 we'll with you" ri can't say

whitening, terrible philippe than the fol
lowing from the Louisville Journal:
Parson Browrlow, the irreverend Gov
ernor of Tennessee, has published one o
bis characteristic low and dirty articles
about US in the Knoxville Wing. In thai
article he has not stated a single truth, Or
anything approximating to q truth
Whenever be sits down to abuse anybody
lies cluster around his pen like biue-b bot.
tie flies around horses ears in July OIL
August. He lies with his pen, lies with
his tongue, lies with his gestures, lies
through every pore of his yellow and
shriyeled hide. Lies issue from hit
mouth like the horned locust from the
throat Of that other great beast described
in the Apocalypse. He is probably the
"father" of US many lies as the horned
and tailed master he serves.
The Psrson is now fierce Abolition

lowest and the worst radical in the nation
He would gladly battle his hands and feet
and wash his face in the blood of every

which Satan will one day sup with long
spoon. They say there is fire in him, bu
it is hell-fre, every particle oft. Though
he is but single swine, there are as many
devils in him as there were in the whole

but Kissing knot OF vipers, rattlosnakes

and vulgar objurgations. His tongue
should be bored through aud through

This man, as we have said, calls him

ON suRRENDERlNG HER PICTURE.
Fair image it's with copious tears,
With bleeding heart, thee resign,
Ia fondly hope in future years,
To cherish, love and call thee mine
But my fond hopes shall cause me throes
Through many sad and cherries day !;
They bloomed and blossomed like the rose,
And like the rose they fade away.
The knave of dark design may tell
With scornful smile his wondrous skill,
The potent pangs of love to quell,
And all the wounds of heart to heal.
But my affection still remains
A bane to blight all earthly bliss;
My souls yet captive in the chains
hoped had linked my happiness.
But, cherished face fore er farewell,
I'll train my heart the trial TO bear,
And while my soul with grief may swell,
III yet suppress the efeminate tear.

THE GOOD SAMARITAN

The object Of the Association in inauguratng
this enterprise is for the purpose of procuring
funds in order TO enlarge its sphere OF usefulness
and Tor procuring a building suitable for the
discharge of its charitable duties. Heretofore,
the association, for want of funds has been OBJ
liged to contne its operations to limited
sphere, and depend solely upon its immediate
friends for support and aid, never before having
made public appeal for assistance in its lauda-
bic efforts to assist the needy and destitute The
Board of Directors, being impressed by the
fact that a large amount of suffering will fall to
the lot Of the INDECENT of this city during the in
clemency of the coming winter, have, after due
deberation, decided that the accompanying plan
is the most feasible one that could be adopted for
replenishing their treasury as it will allow the
charitably disposed to contribute to the fund,
and at the same,time offer an inducement worthy
of the attention of all. The price of a ticket is
small in comparison to the great benefits accru-
ing to the unfortunate class for whose benefit the
undertaking is intended. The fund will be di-
vided into 1908 premiums, amounting in the
aggregate, to 100000, thus leaving balance of
$4,000 in the hands of the Treasurer, to be de-
voted to the charitable objects above enumerated
The distribution has been placed in the hands of
gentlemen whose well-known integrity is guar
antee that all its dealings will be characterized
by honesty and fair dealing, thus relieving the
Association from any unjust criticism that might
otherwise be INDUCED in, from the fact of the
numerous bogus advertisements appearing in our
papers.
The distribution of premiums will take place
on the 30th of October, 1866, and all remittan-
ces should be made at as early date as possible,
as tickets are now being rapidly sold and it will
require large amount of time and labor to COM
plete the business ct the appointed time. The
following is q list of the Premiums to be awarded,
and will be found to be worthy of attention,
