"But he might have been a

mold Lady in O Bad Fix.

A very good widow, who was
looked up to by the congrega,
ton to which she belonged as
an example of piety, contrived
to bring her conscience to
terms for one little indulgence.
She loved porter; and one day,
just as she had received half a
dozen bottles from the man
who usually brought her the
comfortable beverage, She oh,
horror! discovered two of the
grave elders of the church ap-
preaching her door. She ran
the man out of the back door,
and the bottles under the bed,
The weather was hot, and while
conversing with her sage
friends, pop went cork.
"Dear me-" exclaimed the
good lady, "there goes my bed

same. l must have another
rope provided"
In a few minutes went an
other, followed by the pecu-
liar hiss Of escaping liquor
The rope would not do again,
but the good lady was not at
a loss.

A Pen Portrait of Brick Pom
roy.

n zen IOrIralU OI Drlck IOlu-
roy.
The editor of the Cory, Pa,
Republican, who claims to be
personally acquainted with
Brick Pomroy, gives his readers
the extract from the La Crosse
Democrat on Gen. Sherman and
the clergy, and then proceeds
to paint Brick in the following
style
The author of the above out
rage was born minus the moral
attributes of a manly charac-
ter. He is a thief, a liar a
drunkard and a wife beater, to
our personal knowledge. We
have known him to beat his
wife numerically without The
show of a provocatiOn, and for
bid the merchants to trust them
for the necessaries Of life, while
he was carousing in dens of
prostitution. And such thing
the leader of the Democratic
party! We have known him to
sing bawdy songs andcrack OBJ
scene jokes over the remains
of his friend and companion,
who strangled to death in an
attempt to drink a half a gal
lon of whisky, on a wager, in
the city of Milwaukee. And
we have heard him curse the
sun, and defy the power that
sustained it. We could chron-
icle thousand other instances,
but it is useless, as the extract
we present delineates the moral
degradation Of the wretch bet
ter than we are ahle to do.
Inpersonal appearance, Pom
roy is sjust what the imagination
of a decent man naturally pic
lures him after reading the
above characteristic of his pol
luted mind. He has red, bushy
hair (wears it long soas to hide
his horns), a whisky bloated
face, and a red rum blossom
nose--in short, he looks like the
personifcation Of sin puked
out, red-hot from the bowels Of
hell. He, a Sweet-scented ia
ponisa to prate of the imper-
fections of the Church, whose
mind never entertained a sim
gle Christian thought, has no
conception of virtue; he talk Of
reformation, whose heart never
palpitated with one single emo
ton for God or human kind; he
who was sent into this breath
ing world a restless curse, in
whose throat blasphemy and
vulgarity gurgle and seethe
like the hot breath Of damna-
BILE dream; he, Mark NJ. POme-
roy, the personifcation of the
displeasure of Heaven, and glo-
ry of hell, wrapped in a ne
gro's stolen overcOat, who was
seen, sluggishly dragging him
self over the hallowed Sepul- |
chres of our brave soldiers, re-
Gently, to deliver pusillanimous
and inhuman lectures to South
ern traitors-eulogising "the
lost cause"
And such a man the leader
of a great party in the North,
and a MORAL REFORMER
Great Jehovah, blot him out!

Probably never before in the whole his
tory of medicine, has anything won so

of mankind, US this excellent remedy for
pulmonary complaints. Through along
series of years, and among most of tho
races of men 1t has risen higher ard high

known. Its uniform character and power
to cure the various affections Of tho lungs
and throat, have made ii known as o reli-
able protector against them. While adap-
ted to milder forms Of disease and to young
children, IL is at the same time the most
effectual remedy that can be given for in
cipient consumption, and the dangerous
affections Uf the throat and lungs. AS u
provision against sudden attacks OF Group,
It should be kept on hand in every family,
and indeed as all are sometimes subject
to colds and coughs, all should be proyi-
ded with this antidOte for them.
Although settled Consumption is
thought incurable, still great numbers Of
cases whefe the disease seemed settled,
have been completely cured, and the pa
tient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mas
terry over .hc disorders of the Lungs and
Throat, that the most obstinate Of them
yield to it. When nothing else could
reach them, under the Cherry Poctoral
they subside and disappear.

Asthma is always relieved and often

Bronchitis is generally cured by taking
the Cherry Pectoral in smalland frequent

THE proposition 20 adjourn the Leg

The proportion 10 adjourn the Leg
islature until July 10Th passed the
House yesterday morning, but was re-
iected in the Senate by an almost unan-
imous vote. The action of tie Senate
was understood to be duo to the fact
that the 10th of July is the last day OF
the session, unless it be extended. If
the Legislature should not reassemble
I'LL one day before, it was feared there
would not be a sufficient number OF
members present on the 18th to secure
the necessary extension; in which case
the session would terminate abruptly
without anything having been accom-
pliehed. Such termination would
have been very disastrous in more
ways than one. We think, therefore
the action of the Senate was timely and
judicious.
