QUESTION.
Nose and chin would shame knocker.
Wrinkles that would puzzle Cocker
Mouth which marks the envious scorner,
With scorpion in each corner,
Turning its quick tail to sting you
In the place that most may wiring you;
Eyes of lead-like hue, and gummy
Carcass picked out from some mummy;
Bowels (but they were forgotten,
Save the liver, and that's rotten),
Skin all sallow, flesh all sodden,
Form the Devil would brighten God in.
It's corpse stuck up for show,
Galvanized at times to go
With the Scripture in connection,
New proof of the resurrection?
Vampire ghost, or ghoul, what is it?
/ would walk ten miles to miss it.
ANSWER.
Many passengers arrest one,
To demand the same free question,
Shorter's my reply, and franker-
That's the Bard. the Beau, the Banker,
Yet if you could bring about,
Just to turn him inside out,
Satan's self would seem less sooty,
And his present aspect-beauty,
Mark that Gas he masks the bilious
All, oO oOitly CupCAClAlOuoJ
Chastened bow, and mock humility,
Almost sickened to servility.
Hear his tone (Which is to talking
That which creeping is to walking
Now on all-fours, now on tiptoe),
Hear the tales he lends his lip to;
Little hints of heavy scandals,
Every friend in turn he handles;
All which women or which men do,
Glides forth in an inuendo.
Clothed in odds and ends of humor-
Heralds of each paltry rumor,
From divorces down to dresses,
Women's frailties, mems excuses,
All which life presents of evil.
Make for him constant revel.
You're his foe-for that he fears you,
And in absence blasts and sears you;
You're his friend-for that he hates you,
First caresses and then bats you,
Darling on the opportunity
When to do it with impunity;
You're neither-then he'll fatter
Till he finds some traits for satire;
Hunts your weak point out, then shows it
Where it Injuries to disclose it,
Tn the mode that's most invidious,
Adding every trait that's hideous,
From the bile whose black'ning river,
BUSHES through his Stygian liver.
Then he thinks himself lover:
Why really can't discover.
In his mind, age, face and figure;
Viper-broth might give him vigor;
Let him keep the caldron steady,
He the venom has already.

Clipping, like a pair of shutters,
Lights which ought to burn the brighter
For this temporary Brighter.

''WM. s. SPEER, ESQ My Dear Sir:
Yours of tie 9th was duly received. l

gest the propriety of my writing for the

ton TO interfere with slaves or slavery in
the States; butin my judgment it would
do no good. 1 have already done this
many, many times, and it is in print and
open to all who will read. Those who
will not read or heed what have already

SHEIBYvILL, TENN, 18th Oet., 1860.
"MR. LINCoLN-Dear SIR: Since writ
Ing last have made hasty trip through
the South, from this point TO Mobile and
New Orleans, besides wishing st. Louis
and other cities: and now, after having
studied the temper of the politicians and
the people, 10 macs meetings, on the cars,
on steam boats, in hotels, in family cir.
cles, in town and country. 1 feel confident
that the announcement of your election
will be the signal for Southern" conVen-
tions, secession, treason, negro insurrec-
tions, civil war and general confusion.
Anxious az 1 am, and know you to be.
to have the abolition of slavery accom-
plished, Ia result that cannot fail to come
of the threatened secession of The slave
States, yet, as we are for the time ii ID
down by the Chicago platform to simple
opposition to the extension of the occurs
ed institution into territories now free,
venture to suggest to you that, in order
to allay the excitement growing out Of
the impression now universal 10 the Gull
States, that you intend to abolish slavery
and inaugurate negro equality, social and
political, you should come out 10 a letter
over your own name, dsavowing any in
tention to interfere, By force or cunning,
with slaves or slavery in the the States,
and SO prevent secession and servi!e war
If you will write such disclaimer, land
nothing less, in my opinion, can avert the
horrors have named above, J 1 will with
great pleasure, spread it before my So1tb
ern countrymen, as am doing everything
IN my power to reconcile them to you

TEsT OF WISE LEGIsLkTr-N IN SCHOOL
Since pupils are, morally as we'll as in
tsllectually, though in various degrees,
incomPlstely educated, there exists the
need of Hesitation the sense of which
they sometimes do not perceive. But
while they may not always perceive the
sense Of wise legislation, they detect with
remarkable penetration unwise legisia-
ton. It is well for the teacher to bear
his in mind. The judgment of pupils
is not indeed. iniallbIe. 1t may con.
denim what is wise. But dissatisfaction
with a teachers method of governing
continues to characterize a school, il is
certain that the teacher is governing IN
wisely. A sure test Of wise legislation
IN school is the existence of satisfaction
among the pupils. A school without
law is as much dissati, fed school as
school with unwise law, though in the
one playfulness be rampant and in the
ther detection brood.

ALARMING OCCURRENCE AND MIRA

shower about o'clock, last evening.
o party of ladies and gentlemen,

lightning rod, spreading along the
ground, knocking down four Of the
party, stunning another, but very
providentially and miraculously not

II. II. Williams, jr., was thrown from
the position in which he was stand

middle Of the street, fiat on his back,
but managed to rise and make his
way into the guard house. The fluid
had passed down the left leg of his
pantaloons, tearing the cloth in strips,
and bursting the seams on both sides
of the boot leg. tearing the sock and
singing the leg. His brother, Rev.
r.. +. Williams, suffered almost iden-
tically in the same way, being struck
on the left leg, tearing open his boot
and sock, and slightly scorching the
skin, but simply knocking him down
where he stood. Miss Highham ex-
perienced a very severe shock, being
knocked down and her CATERS torn
open: Mrs. Williams, wife of Mr..
IL. II. Williams, jr., escaped with a
shock and slight singing of her
dress, which took fire. Miss Burns
received a slight shock. At the tins

equal numbers, all the property and

OF State once more into haven of

But there is another point. Sup

We cannot believe it. There is too
much fidelity-call it intelligence, if
you please-among the masses of the
colored population throughout the
State, for them to be caught up and
led astray by the clap-trap arguments
of such demngogues as these. We
grant you, that in our cities, where
so many hundreds of idlers congre-

sown and evil results follow, but we
cannot anticipate any such consc-
quences throughout the country,
where the Industrious laborers are in
constant dealings with their humane
