An Arkansas paper says that cltl-
zen of that State, eighty-three years
oe age, lately married a blooming
widow of thirty five; and that another
Arkansan, ninety-eight years old, less
fortunate than his younger fellow
citizen, on the same day fell down
stairs and broke his neck.

THE editor of a magazine having,
through some inadvertance, inserted
the same article in two successive
numbers of the periodical, was re-
preached for carelessness. You are
quite in error; the reason for the
second insertion was this: my subscri-
bers approved the article so highly,
that it was encored.

IMPORTANT TO TAx-PAYERs.--In In another col
umn will be found notice from the Mayor and
City Treasurer relative to unpaid taxes. The
Mayor calls upon all good citizens to come for
ward and redeem their fair names from re-
proach.. One section of the tax ordinance en-
powers the Treasurer to issue executions
against the property of oil deinquents, the
same to be lodged with the City Sheriff, who
will at once collect the debt: Holders OF Fire
Losn bonds are also notified that the coupons

IMPORTANT TO BANKRUPTs.-It may not be
generally known that the time is limited within
which parties will be able to avail themselves
of the full benefits which may now be obtained
under the operation Of the Bankrupt law. In
the 3Sd section Of the act, it is provided 'that
in all proceedings in bankruptcy commenced
after one year from the time this act shall go
into operation, no discharge shall be granted
to debtor whose assets do not pay fifty per
centum of the claims against his estate, unless
the assent in writing Of majority in number
and value of his creditors who have proved
their claims, is filed in the case at or before the
time Of application for discharge" The Bank
rupt act went into effect June 1, 1857 But it
should be remembered that case in bank
ruptcy is generally tedious affair, and con-
surnes from one 10 four months. Those who
design entering this happy state, should re-
member that delays are dangerous. 1t is COM
parstively easy to become bankrupt now; but
the restrictions will be soon in force, and those
who mediate bankruptcy should be up and
doing. -

BEWARE OF TH1EyEs.-We have frequently
been requested to caution ladies against street
strollers, who watch for an opportunity to
snatch their reticules or portmonaies. An in
stance of this occurred on Saturday evening,
when colored boy followed a young lady to
her door and while asking her some trivial
question, endeavored to snatch her portmo-
naie. Fortunately it was well secured by q
chain and the foiled robber ran of. Ladies
should allow no stranger 10 approach them in
the streets. The suddenness Of the attack
renders it almost impossible to identity the
thief. and the only safeguard is vigilance.

The flowers appear on the earth; the time OF
the singing OF birds is come, and the voice OF

teth forth her green figs, and the vines with
the tender grape give good smell"

RIVER BApr1sM.-The baptismal services Of
the Morris-street Baptist Church (colored),
took place yesterday morning as advertised,
and were largely attended. The banks OF the
river at the west end Of Tradd-street we're
lined with spectators, and number OF boats
we're in the stream, each being filed with
motley crowd Of curious gazers. Long before
the hour appointed, every. available spot Oh
Ground that could secure a view Of the specta-
Gle was occupied; and the sheds and fences In
the vicinity were hinged with curious faces.
The procession was formed at q house near
the river and marched to the water headed by
the pastor, the Rev. Jacob Legare. The can
didates for baptism were all robed IN White,
and moved slowly, keeping time to solemn
hymn that was sung with great fervor by all
who were acquainted with the tune. On arriy-
ing at the chosen spot, the candidates having
been aligned on the banks, were addressed by
their pastor. He introduced the Rev. G.. W.
Goines. a colored missionary from Philadel-
phia. who offered a short prayer. Rev. j..
Ieeare then spoke of the good work that God
was perfecting, and trusted that the appeal
for contributions to build suitable church
vould meet with liberal response. Accord
ingly, during the singing Of the opening hymn
the deacons with their long poles and little
black bags occupied themselves industriously
in reminding the crowd that their small cnange
was needed.
The baptism took place in the usual manner,
the candidates being led into the water, ano
severally immersed by the minister. Sixty,
one were thus admitted to the church, forty
three OF whom were females and eighteen
males. few of these were adults but the
large majority, especially among the females.
were children. The exercises were conducted
quietly and in order, though some little confu-
sion and amusement was caused by the unpre-
meditated immersion Of colored boatman
He was speedily fshed out as the water was
not deep, and the merriment which the Incl
dent occasioned soon subsided.
The Morris-street Church has now large
and Aourishing membership, and we learn thai
the congregation have it in contemplation
either to erect new church or to enlarge the
present ediice.
