LOUISVILLE, October IA disgrace

Warnock county, Indiana, on Sunday, re-
sulting in the death of two If not three men.
The difficulty was between two men named
Springston on the one side and two named
Clark on the other, in which Harry Spring
ston was killed and his brother Abe so bad
y wounded that he died soon afterward.
Harry Spriuston was recently pardoned out
of the penltentiary. The difficulty origina

some accounts. Shortly after the shootig

TAKE THE PAPERS.
By n. p. WILLIS.

Why don't you take the papers?
They're the life of my delight
Dxcept about election time,
And then l read for spite.
Subscribe you cannot lose cent,
Why should you he afraid?
For cash thus paid is money lent
At interest four. fold paid.
Go then, and take the papers,
And pay to-day nor pray delay,
And on my word for it is inferred,
You'll live until you're gray.
An old neighboi hood of mine
While dying with a cough,
Desired to hear the latest news
While he was going off.
took the paper and l read
OF some new pills in force
He bought q box-and is he dead?
No-hearty as horse.
L knew two men, rs much alike
ho q cl cNei ou saw tWO b'hhipoJ
And no phrenologist could find
A differ ence in their bumps.
One takes the papers, and his life
Is happier than kings,
His children all can read and write,
And talk of men and things,
The other took no paper, and
While stroliing in the wood
A tree fell down and broke his crown,
And killed him-''very good"
Had he been reading of the news,
At home like neighbor Jim,
I'll bet a cent that accident
Would not have happened him.
Why don't you take the papers!
Nor from the printer sneak,
Because yov borrow from his boy
A paper every week.
For he who takes the papers,
And pays his bills when due;
Can live at peace with God and man,
And with the printers too.

CHEERFUL PEopLE. God bless the
cheerful persons imam, woman or child
old or young, illitterate or educated, hand
some or homcly. Over and above every
other social trait stands cheerfulness.
What the sun is to nature-what God is
to the stricken heart which knows how
to lean upon nim.are cheerful persons
in the house and by the wayside. They
go unobtrusively, unconsciousy about
their silent mission, Frightening up society
around them with the happiness beaming
from their faces. We love to SIT near them !;
we love the glance of their eye, the tone
their voice Little children find them
out, oh $50 quickly amid the densest crowd,
and, passing by the knitted brow and com,
preside lip, glide near and, laying a conf
ding little head on their knee, lift their
clear young eyes to those Icing faces.

MURDER In OLEAN.-A colore9 man by
the name Of Baker was murdered in Olean
on the morning of Saturday, tbe I'd inst,
about 3 o'clock A. NJ. The murderer is a
man by the name Of Burdick, desperate
character, who has resided in that village for
the past two or three years. 1t seems that
Baker was returning home, in company with
his wife and another woman, from party
in the wertern part of the village. On their
way met as they supposed Burdick with
Il cart apparently with apples. Baker
stopped to ascertain positively who it was,
while the women proceeded towards home.
In short time the women heard what was
apparently an alteration between the men,
followed by two or three reports from pis-
tol. they hurried back and found Baker
lying in the road mortally wounded, but en-
tirely conscious. He lived only a few min.
utes, but before his death stated that
Burdick shot him. Burdick was subse-
quently arrested and is now confined in
Jail at Little Valley.

greater his claims may have been to ST.
periority, tho greater tho relish with
which he is torn. Tho sins Of the
great and tho gifted are the sustenance
which pampcrs tho sclflove Of the
small Pharisies, who thank God tina
they are not as other men. The man
who only looks upon pain for tho hope
Of relieving it whose look only dwclls
upon the fallen with the hope of rails
ing HIM ; he who walks backward to
cover another's shame, has advanced far
in the christian lifo. That little knot
who were RECALLING themselves with
what they thought tn, duplic'ty Of our
heroine, had not reached that stage VI
ife's journey to the better land, if in
deed they had started upon that road.
Of the Eve, Thompson at least would
have been very unwilling to have
vronscd any one, in thought, word or
deed, but in this case the proof Of guilt
was overwhelming. A belief once re-
ceived becomes the possession Of the
mind receiving it. 1t is a portion Of
the mental resources Of its proprietor.
lie clings to it with the sense of own
ership, and refuses to give it up except
for value received. As We value any
other possession according to its rarity,
so do We estimate our knowledge, and
the knowledge Of this bit of scandal
was all tbs more precious that so few
had share iu it, 1t possessed twenty
times the interest of any tale of double
the am punt of crime, obtained from the
columns OF city daily, but the incon-
veniencc Of this kind of treasure is that
tho possessor cannot display without
sharing it. Displayed it must be or
what is the use Of having it? So this
was soon passing from lip to lip, with
many variations, and always without
names as the originators did not dare
designate their characters for fear Of
investigation. 1t assumed a hundred
shapes, and passed into as many legends
illustrative Of tho total depravity Of
city lip. Mr.. Twinzy had claims upon
the gratitude Of those on whom he had
bestowed the cnviabls distinction, of
knowing such an important secret. He
had exhibited himself in various inter.
esting characters, and was successful !
and triumphant. Happy Mr.. Twinsy!
