\ MAN SHoT.-On Wednesday, Nov.
18th, Mr. Edward Smith, of Burnside town
ship, met with very serious accident, by
being shot in the left forearm by young
man named Beard. 1t seems that Mr.. Smith,
Mr. Beard, and two others, all nelghbors,
had gone to the mountain, several miles
north of this place, for the purpose OF deer
hunting. Once on the hunting ground, and
seeing track, they separated, as is usual with
hunters, the better to observe the movements
OF the deer In passing along through the
bushes, Mr. Beard thought he saw deer
sanding and, after watching its. move
uents for some time, being fully satisfied as
to the character of the object which attract
ed his attention, he raised his rife to his
shoulder and fired; however, only to fnd,
to his utter surprise and conformation,
that he had shot his companion and neigh
Dor. Upon examination, Beard saw that
the ball had taken effect few inches below
The elbow, and, going through the arm, had
cut two holesiu Smith scoat, over the breast
pOcket-thus narrowly escaping instant death
As soon as a conveyance could be obtained'
the wounded man was brought to this place,
and surgeon summoned TO dress bis wound
when it was found that one bone was much
'hattered, and the main artery severed, and
mat amputation likely would have to be re-
sorted to, to save life. So far, however,the
injured man has got along quite well, al
though the arm was much inhamed for sew
efal days; and it is to be hoped that the arm
need not be taken off, but circumstances may
Satnake such an event necessary

4 Boy SHor.-We learn, that on Thurs
day, Nov. l4th, two boys named respective
ly Kitchen AMI Beth, whose parents live
in New Washington, went up the creek,
some distance above the town, for the pur-
pose of hunting, when young Kitchen ac-
ciientally shot young Breth through the
beaI-the ball entering at the front part Of
the head and coming out at the back part.
We did not learn the fu'i particulars. At
last accounts the injured boy was still alive,
hut there was no hopes Of his recovery, as
the brain was oozing from the wound. This
is another sad warning to boys, against the
careless handling of fire arms.

An ITEM WHICH EvERYM MAN

AN ITEM WHICH EVERY MAN
SHOULD READ.-We have pro-
bably all of us met with in
stances in which a word heed
lessly spoken against the repu-
tation of a female has been
magnified by malicious minds
until the cloud has become dark
enough to oyershadow her
whole existence. To those who
are accustomed-not necessa-
rily from bad notes, but from
thoughtfulness-to to speak light
ly of ladies, we recommend
these "hints' as worthy of con-
sideration:
"Never use a lady's name in
an improper place, at an i'm
proper time, or in mixed COM
pany. Never make assertions
about her that you think are
untrue or allusions that you feel
she herself would blush to hear.
When you meet with men who
do not scruple to make use of a
Woman's name in a reckless
and unprincipled manner, shun
them, for they are the very
worst members of the commu-
nity-men lost to every sense
of honor, every feeling of hu-
manity. Many a good and
worthy woman's character has
been forever ruined and her
heart broken by a lie, manufac-
tured by some villain, and re-
peated where itshould not have
been, and in the presence of
those whose little Judgment
could not deter them from cir
culating the foul and Dragging
report. A slander is soon pro-
pagated, and the smallest thing
derogatory to a woman's char
acter will fly on the wings OF
the wind, and magnify as it
circulates until it's monstrous
weight crushes the poor un-
conscious victim. Respect the
name of woman, for your mother
and sisters are women; and as
you would have their fair name
untarnished, and their lives I'M
embittered by the slanderer's
biting tongue, heed the i'll that
your own words may bring
upon the mother, the sister, OF
the wife of some fellow-crea-
ture."

Lost. s

A dying SOUL by sin enchained,
Its once white robe with crimson stained,
Turned to its captor, stern and grim
Unbind these fetters, cruel Power
Grant me sweet peace for one brief hour,
Pure thoughts are far away and dim.
| long to WOO them back again,
To softly still this bitter pain,
And cool this burning fever fire.
Fond memories call me from the past,
Longings for Heaven, that fitted fast
As music from broken Tyre
I'm sick of this wild hopeless life,
These feverish joys, this endless strife,
sigh for deep, enduring calm
Demon of I'LL unloose thy prey!
The night is dark-I wait for day,
And Gods most precious balm.
The King of Evil, mocking, smiled
On that poor soul, by sin deiled-
Unhappy spirit, plead no more!
No holy thought shall come to thee
No angels prayer shall set thee free
Thy earth stained pinions cannot soar!
Upon thee have set my seal,
And vainly thou to God shalt l1neel,
His love and mercy sweet to crave
Yes, long for Heaven, but long in vain,
Those blissful courts thou can st not gain,
Eternally thou art my slave
Then shuddered that poor wandering soul,
As Satan boasted his control,
And Sins dark waters wildly tossed
1t drifted on in fierce despair,
Mocked still by visions false and fair,
Wailing forever, lost losti lost !!

the church, one to get married,
the other to act as groomsman

up before the altar, and the
officiating clergyman, suppos-
ing that both couples were to
married, requested the gentle
men to join hands with their
respective ladies, which was
done, and in a very short space
of time the four were made
two. The situation being fully

CoNFEssING OUR FAULTS.

CONFEsSING OUR FAULTS
A writer has said, Il was mis-
taken,' are the three hardest
words to pronounce in the Eng
lish language. Yet it seems
but acknowledging that we are
wiser than than we were be-
fore, to see our error, and hum
bier than we were before to
own it. But SO it is; and Gold
smith observes that Frederick
the Great did himself more
honor by his letter to his Sem
ate, stating that he had just lost
a battle by his own fault, than
all the victories won. Perhaps
our greater perfection here is
not to escape the imperfections,
but to acknowledge and la
ment.- Jay.

BELLEVUE LA. SATURDAY, JANUARY l2, 1867.

u The Journal mildly hints
at some "obstacles" in the way
of the territorial scheme. A
few of those obstacles the New
York Word enumerates: The
judicial system would be shat
tered, circuit and district courts
done away with, law suits sum-
marily quashed and United
States courts left without .iuris-
diction; the pecuniary obliga-
tons of the States will be
forced upon the United States !;
public creditors will be legally
claimless; taxes cannot be col
lected ; the people of the States
will refuse to choose legisla-
lures Congress cannot consti-
tutionally impose taxes upon
territories; the government
would be compelled to pay the
salaries of all local officers, and
the people of the United States
would not only be brrdened
with the Southern State debts,
in addition to their own, but
with the whole expense of
maintaining internal order in
the South. The difficulty and
friction resulting from the re-
fusal of the people to cooperate
in the Territorial governments,
would quadruple the expense as
well as transfer it. All these,
however, are "obstacles" which
this extraordinary Congress
with characteristic recklessness
seems to have considered un-
worthy of attention. Moreover,
Stevens commands and must
be obeyed.-[Boston Post.

- The courtship of DR..
Sam Johnson was a model one
as a evidence of disregard of
position in society. When pay

he stated that he was of mean
extraction, poor, and had an

sweetheart responded that she
felt it no disgrace to be poor,
as she was poor herself, and al
though she never had any rela-
tive who was hanged, she had
fifty who deserved to be.

GOoD ADyICE.-Girls, let us
tell you stubborn truth: No
young woman ever looks SO well
to a sensible young man as
when dressed in plain, neat,
modest attire, without a single
ornament about her person.
She looks then as though she
passessed worth in herself, and
needed no artificial rigging to
enhance her value. If a young
woman would spend as much
time in cultivating her mind,
training her temper, and cher
ishing kindness, meekness,
