OFT IN THE CHILLY NIGHT.

Oft in the chilly night,
Ere slulnber's chain hath bound me,
pull the blankets tight,
And tuck them Gloss around me.
Yet often still So ter,
Feel dreadful chill. ssh
Without of warmth a token,
From bitter winds,
Through tatter'd blinds
And window shutters broken
So in the chilly night,
Ere slumber's chain hath bound me,
/ pull the blankets tight,
And tuck them close around me.
When remember all
The times in wintry weather,
That sheets and blankets fall
From off my couch togetherI
really dread
To go to bed,
Lest after some hours dOzin',
Without quilt,
I'd waken kilt"
And find myself half frozen.
So in the chilly night,
Ere sumber's chain hath bound me,
pull the blankets tight,
And tuck them close around me.

A BILL TO INCREASE THE PRIcE Oh
THE NEcEssARIEs OF LIFE.-The n.
Y. EUening Post says that no man who
expects TO continue in public life can
afford TO vote for tie atrocious swim
die upon the farmers, mechanics and
workingmen of the United States
called the Tariff bill-which ought TO
be styled "A bill to still further in
crease the prevailing high prices, and
to grind the faces OF American work
ing men" The people are learning a
costly lesson-they are beginning to
find out that this continued tamper-
ing with the industry of the country,
produces evil and only evil to them,
however it may enrich few favored
manufacturers.

READ IT.-We call the attention OF
our readers to the confession of the
Rev. Lindsay, the child murderer. He
claims that he was actuated by high
motives while killing his child This
is just what his New England fathers
said when they cut the tongues ont OF
the Quakers' mouths, cropped their
ears and then hung them. II was in
the direct line of this duty, we sup
pose, that Roger Williams and his
friends were banished. Under the
same plea they robbed and drove the
Indian from his possessions, and the
same feeling lately murdered half a
million of white men, and put on line
of extinction four millions of "colored
brethren" If we are to accept the
declaration of these Puritan demons,
they are always actuated by the
highest motives of mans nature"
The murderer, while in prison, should
repeat the following. daily:
"The mercy to others show,
That mercy show TO me-"

LECTURE ON CHEMsTRY.-The lect-
ure on "Chemical Force" to be deliv-
cred in the Court House, by H. B.
Swoope, Esq, on Tuesday evening
next, we predict will be rare treat
TO those not versed in chemistry.
The study Of this useful science, from
its supposed intricacy and unfathoma-
BILE depths, is grossly neglected, and
consequently entirely misunderstood
by the public. Those wishing TO gain
information on this point cannot de-
vote their time to a better purpose
than by repairing for few hours to
the Court House, on the evening in
dicAted, listen to Mr.. Swoope, and then
examine and see for themselves how
this science is rendered simple and
plain when committed to the hands OF
one who has made it part OF his
study.

SwISDLERs.-We this week publish
on our first page an article relating TO
lottery and gift swindlers, for which
we bespeak an attentive perusal. The
robberies committed by this class of
highwaymen amounts to millions of
dollars annually, and perpetrated up
on those who are least able TO bear it..
We have no doubt but that our own
little county is annually pluncered of
thousands of dollars in the manner
indicated by this circular, and it is the
duty of every citizen to denounco it
We could name individuals who have
sent those Williams five, ten and per-
haps more dollars, who should have
invested it in bread and meat for their
children. Every dollar sent, either
to lottery or gift enterprise gam
bier, is thrown away.
