Sh arp Lessons.

Under the reign Of the FIRST caliphs there
was a merchant at Bagdsd equally rich and
avaricious.
One day he bargained with porterto carry
home for him a large basket of porcelain vs>
ses for ten psras, As they went along, he
said to the man:
"My friend, you are young, and am old !;
you can still earn plenty. Strike off, en-
treat you, para from your hire.
Willingly" replied the porter.
This request was repeated again and again,
until, when they reached the house, the por
ter had only one para to receive. As they
went up stairs, the merchant said :
"Ifyou will resign the last para, viii give
you three pieces of advice
Be it so" said the porter.
Well, then said the merchant, 'tif any
one tells you it is better to be fasting than
feasting, do not believe him if any one tells
you it is better to walk than ride do not be-
lieve him if any one tells you il is better TO
DO poor than rich, do not believe him."
Ny good sir, replied the sstonshed por>
ter, I" | knew these things before but if you
will listen to me, will give you advice such
as you never heard.
The merchant turned round ard the porter
throwing the basket down the staircase, said
TO him:
81 If any one tells you that your vases re-
main unbroken, do not believe him.
Before the miser could reply, the porter
made his escape.

Hon. Thaddeua Stevens, in q letter to the
.Gettysburgh Penn. Star and Herald, pub
Aehed by the Hon. Edward Nc Phefson, Clerk
OF the U. 8. House Of Representatives., thus
defends his proposed policy Of !:
LANCASTER, Penn, Mag 20, 1867,
Dean Sir: Short as yosr letter 10, fear
cannot answer it without violating an injune,
ton Of my medical advisers, not TO become
excved. You live in q region which was two
or three times invaded by the armies of JEFF
ferson Davis. In the counties Of Bedford,
Fulton, Franklin, Cumberland, Adams, and
York, the rebels visited almost every farmer
and other inhabitant, and plundered them OF
their horses, cattle, provisions, wages, and
money when found. Besides some detached
cases, they laid in ashes one thriving village
of 5000 people, and turned the inhabitants
houseless into the streets to seek their shelter
in fence corners. No provision has ever
been made or is now making TO reimburse the
plundered citizens.
By the law of nations, Government makes
no compensation for damages done by the In.
vading army, unless such Government be
victorious, when it always provides by treaty
for the payment by the vanauished enemy. A
Government which neglects to make such pro-
visions on behalf Of its plundered citizens, 10
basely negligent of its duty.
quasi-peac exists between the late
belligerents, the terms Of which is under
the control of the Republican party. Moth
ing but the proceeds of the con6scation of
small portion of the property of the
wealthy rebels can be applied to
pay the damages inflicted by the
msrsuders, unless it be paid out by the
Treasury Of the United States. A few re
publican meteors always erratic in their
LII
the Republican atmosphere. They attract
sufficient public attention to enable them to
assure the amiable rebels who inflicted this
injury, that they need fear no con6scation !;
that nobody of any note in the North is in
favor of imposing such punishment for the
sake Of remuneration or justice. They as
sure them that nothing shall be taken from
Aiken's estate Of millions, from Hampton,
Davis, Orr, Faulkner, or from q thousand
others who are still worth their hundreds of
thousands, to reimburse the loyal men North
and South who were plundered of their es>
tates, and to aid your poor neighbors to re-
build their humble tenements.
II is scarcely to be endured that Congress
for two sessions should sit Indifferent TO
these sufferings and take no steps to enforce
these rights These remarks apply to large
portions of Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio,
Indiana and Missouri, as we'll as to the slave
States. He who can patiently listen to that
potent humanity which we now see propo-
gated has more command of himself than |
have. Indeed it looks as if we were still to
add TO the burden of our taxation to deersy
the expenses of transportation and the ova-
ton OF triumphant traitors. But must stop,
or shall commit the fault against which l
have been warned. With great respect,
Your obedient servant,

A SToSEwALL JACKSON MAN ON TIE SITuA>
Trog,-A correspondent Of the New York
Herald, who is travelling in Virginia, came
across Capt. Perry, who served under
Stonewall jackson during the rebellion, who
expressed himself heartily resigned to the
result of the war, and determined TO work
harder to restore than he did to destroy the
Union. Of the freedmen be said
al have travelled through Louisa, Orange,
Albemarle, Nelson, Augusta and half q dozen
other counties, and one thing has struck mo
chieay-the wonderful good sense of the ne
groes in quietly adapting themselves to the
new order OF things, working almost every>
where AS steadily as any other laborers, and
educating themselves for citizenshp--won
derfal really. in the niggers.
"This good sense you hardly anticipated
would accompany their emancipation.
Participated never. To be candid with
you, did not believe in the possibility of
what | now see; and I'm darned if | believe
that white men kept in bondage as long as
the negroes were, and thus suddenly thrown
on their own resources, would have done half
as well. No sir: many more of EN- would

niggers.

The woman with a snake in her stomach"
whose case has attracted some attention, died
few days since at Anamosa of congestion of
the brain. A post Diortem examination of
the body, as we learn from the Eureka, re-
vealed the following facts The mucus mem
brane OF the throat, lthe phsrynx and lsrynx)
were found liberated their entire surface !;
the heart was in healthy condition. The
lungs were firmly attached to the walls Of the
chest. The left lung for its whole extent was
a diseased mass. and had to be dissected from
all its surrounding organs with care, to re-
move il entire. The lower portion of .he
left lung was entirely gone, aud its place oc-
cuped by Urge abscess which had formed
adhesions to the ribs, stomach and liver. On
the inside of the abscess small particles of
tubucular deposits were found. The upper
portion of this lung was congested, and tubu-
cular deposits found through it. The right
lung was also eongested, aud the same tubu-
cular concretions were found scattered
through the upper portion, and had began to
soften and destroy the lung. OF course there
were no signs of a snake, lizard, or similar
animal aud the poor woman had suffered un-
told agonies of mind, besides being starved
and tortured in body, because some ignoran,
pretender had made her believe that huge
snake or lizzard was coiledup in her stomach

IN NEMoRIAN,
0LITTLE ANNA"

We went with her down to the river side,
Where the dark waters roll in troubled
tide,
A little vessel was anchored there
Waiting for a passenger;
And death, at the commanders word,
Carried our little one on board.
Q, We dreaded to see our darling float,
Across the dark stream in that little boat;
But Charon gently Tipped his oar
And straight-way steered for the oppo-
site shore.
And We strained our eyes to catch a CLEAN
Of the other side of the mystic stream,
But shadowy veil hung over the tide
And shut out the view Of that other side.
And turning away, 50 deeply bereft. "
We gazed on the form the sweet voyager
left.
We clasped it close in strong embrace,
And tearfully looked on the still, white
A beautiful smile, such as angels wear,
The lingering spirit had painted there,
As though to deceive our hearts, the
By the life-like appearance Of that sweet
smile,
Butthe spirit light from the eyes had fed,
Yet-there is nothing 90 lonely as baby,
dead.
The white, lily hands clasped over the
heart,
And the line ofblue, where the eye lids
part,
The round outline of the dimpled cheek
And rosebud lips never taught to speak,
The baby curls still damp and wet,
That have lost none Of their shining
beauty yet.
In other forms, death is CHASTITY ana grim,
With the hollow cheek and eye sunken
and dim,
But when a babe's sweet lips are robbed
a. Of breath
Oh! there's much Of beauty, then, in
death! JAQUILINI.

Tx WEDD1No.-On Frid>.y even
ing last, with about sixty others,
We were in attendance at the resi-
dence Of Mr.. & Mrs. Moon to aid in
commemorating the tenth anniver-
sary of their wedding. Coming
among us in the early days Of the
history Of our place they have by
their uniform kindnes and urbanity
fairly won the highest regard Of those
among whom their home has been
chosen. It is unnecessary perhaps,
to add that the evening was passed
in pleasant greetings and, inter-
change Of such regard as none bnt
mutual friends entertain.
The presents Of the occasion were
varied, odd, fanciful, and unique,
comprising most articles Of tin-ware
to be had in this section, and drawing
literally upon the bump Of construc .
ton Of the fruitful geuiuses, here
about. Among the odd articles was
a full sett of tin jewelry mauufac-
tured from the bright and glistening
tin once encasing can Of the best
Baltimore oysters. What they
lacked in cost and beauty was am
ply supplied in oddity. >.
The music was done by Mrs. 7.
W. Lee, in the most artistic style,
to the sdifcation Of the lovers of
harmony.
The rich rspast was enjoyed, not
in sullen silence, for none were there
in the sullen mood to 10 enjoy.
At late hour all repaired to their
homes, surprised at tho rapid flight
of time when in pleasant and agree
able company.
