Mr.. Editor;

Mr.. Editor:
am forced TO smile; yes sir, acIu'lIy
forced to smile; at The futile efforts Of
the curious portion Of our happy little
community to discover who cash" is.
How provoking it must DO TO them
They have found him out at least half a
dozen times, and each time, ao they put
their finger upon him, they have found
to their chOgrin that, like the Itshman's
flea, "ho wasn't there. Why it makes
me laugh TO watch the various maneuv }
ros they make in order 10 find me out.
But they are perfectly useless, 80, gem
tlemen. you might as well cease your
labor, for, myself unseen sit calmly by
and see all your plans, and being seen
they are easily avoided, Curiosity is
is sail to be sin, and sacred history
records at lcus! two notable instances
where it was severely punished. First
in the gordon OF Eden when Adam and
Eve, urged on by the demon, curiosity,
ate of the forbidden fruit, and thus en-
tailed upon mankind all the ills and
evils lhst now surround us, aad will re-
main with us until the latest posterity.
Secondly, when sodom was destroyed,
and while Lot and bis family were flee
ing from the doomed city, Lots wife,
excited by the same demon, looked back
and was instantly changed 10 pillar Of
salt. With such fearful examples as
these before them how can they allow
themselves to be SO carried away by idle
curiosity?
Some of these curious people have 0
habit of going 10 the physicians Of the
town and enquiring in avery vie and
knowing manner if such and such per.
sons are not afflicted 10 a certain mans
ner, at che same time assuring the ply
stefan that be need not be afraid 10 trust
the "anxious inquirer" because it will
go no further. If the physician fails to
say that the person spoken of is not SO
afflicted, or if he hesitaLes in his answer,
We soon hear a rumOr that this person is
so afflicted. And the ouly ground for
the report is the enquiry made by some
one of these olIiciou', curious persons
aforesaid. Let these persons obey the
scripiuroI injunction to "koep bride
upon their longs" and remember that
the "least said is soonest mended."
In order 10 relieve them Of their curl
osity ia regard to myself, l hereun'O
subscribe my name in full.

Pretty faces, fine dresses and everything nice,

The subject of growl No 9 from your sash"

No. 2 is silly attack on our morals
Turns fun into sin, with our laughter it qarrelsi

You once took part in these jokes in that
place,
Or else, you're mean, sneakiug spy, and in

The remarks in growl 1 are too tue, Alas

Would benevolent cash." try wild youth TO

But instead CT the boys, who the grCwi now
attacks,
The Police are to blame, for not shielding the
blacks.
But as Ash" has lived long in Point Pleasant,
no doubt,
"old Abe" has received both his pclt aud his
shout.
Say, George, who is "Ash2" lctyOur readers all
know,
That when in his presence they act "eomms il

Lest he put me in print with terrible growl.
Perhaps he'd find fault with the cut Of my

But enough OF this bilious, dissatisfied rat,
Should he growl any more-t to the wise "Oer.
