Take Care Of Your Habits.

Character is the substance, repu
tation tho shadow only--somotimes
longer and sometimes shorter. How
important, then, is care in the growth
and formation of habits, since char.
acter is but "buudle Of habits chat
years have been picking up and com.
bining; aud when combined you may
hnnihiate the composition, but you
cannot alter it. II is no easy matter
TO drop habits, even those that hang
most loosely upon the outside. We
have attachment TO them or thoy have
an attachment to us, which is not
Seadily separated. They are like an
old pair OF shoes, which, though there
are no advantages attending them,
still they are easy, and we are loath
to "cast them off, They arc like an

unsightly, still sits comfortable to
our head, aud we dread tho breaking

Police CoURT.-Two plain drunks-
one of them an old eustomer-and two
disorderlies composd the docket at the
Police Court yesterday.
The hearing of the cases of James
Lawless and Michael Roman, charged
with using loud and abusive language,
continued from Monday, was again
continued until Saturday because ofthe
inability of the deputy Sergeant to find
a very important witness for the de
Tense.
James Daley, formerly daily visitor
at TIE Police Court, came into the
presence of the Judge yesterday when
his name was called. Daley had a
weakly look as if his last spree had not
altogether agreed with him. Hereto
fore, Jamsey has had an excuse for his
plain DRINKS. One time it was the
"hail storrum," then it was the little
taste he had taken for "sore arrum."
Yesterday he confessed he had taken in
his fusil oil for sake's sake, and he had
no excuse to offer. He was fined 81 and
costs.
Charles Coleman was found in the
neighborhoo2 of Amicks saloon, with
both barrels loaded. He was arrested
and fined 81 and costs.

A MALICIOUS ACT.-A few days since,
as We learn by letter received in this
city from R. G. Dovener, Esq, of Writ
county, some five or six piles of corn
meal were discovered in pasture lot
near Mr.. Doveuer's place. The pasture
was full of cattle, and the meal having
been scattered after dark, gave rise to
suspicious that all was not right, and a
sample of the meal was sent to this city
to be analysed. 1t was found to con-
tain strychnine in abundance. Fortu-
nately the poisoned food was discovered
before any of the cattle had partaken of
it. That it was designed to kill the
stock there can be no doubt. Hanging
is too poor a punishment for a man
who would be guilty of such malicious
action. Boiling in hot oil might cure
such a fellow if he were detected. We
hope if he ever is csught our Writ coun-
ty friend will try it and see.
