On Wednesday night, three men broke
into the house of Mr.. Kelley, quaker, in
Masonville, about three miles from Norris
town, n. J. They went to the bedcham-
Der where the owner and his wife weresly-
ing, and tied them firmly to the bed, after
which they deliberately ransacked the
house. While they were thus engaged Mr.
Kelly managed to free himself from his
bonds, and running to his fathers house,
procured a gun, with which he returned to
his own house. Meantime his wife got
loose, and running to the window in her
fright, leaped out and was severely injured.
When Kelly neared his residence he saw
his wife lying PROSTATE on the ground, and
supposing her to be one of the burglars,
shot her dead

Independenoei

Almost the best defence, at least one of the
strongest safeguards Of morality, is the feeling
of independence. If the world thinks that
to be right which you think to be wrong,
follow your own opinion, and preserve your
self-respect. Consider that you would rather
be honorable and despised, than honored aud
despicable. If the world holds you in light
esteem, because it misunderstands your char
acter, every mark of disrespect which it bestows
upon you is n certificate of the beatty and
excellence of those virtues in which it err
roneously supposes you to be deficient But
if the world, while i; knows your character,
disesteems you, because the principles that
regulate your conduct are above the received
standard of morality, and it is incapable of
appreciating them, retire within your own
bosom and enjoy that serene consciousness of
rectitude, which can sustain, undisturbcd, the
hoarse clamor or popular inyective.
He who has the fortitude and the constancy
to do this, and to go on steadily in the path
of duty visible TO his eyes alone, experiences
not merely that tranquil satisfaction which n
sense OF obligation fulfilled brings always with
u IA ioftier, noDfsr, PrOuder pleasure, even
the most exalted of which our nature is
susceptible, that unaloyed felicity which is
the prerogatiVe of integrity invisible amid al
lurements or peril. The stern and solemn joy
which bore the martyrs and heroes triumphant
and exulting through their trials, which sup
ported them, gave them the victory over shame
and anguish, aud death itself, is the due
reward of original fnd peculiar virtuc-of
virtue manifested in spite of temptation-in
spite of what is still harder 10 be resisted,
ridicule, opprobium, and scorn.

A writer for the Baltimore Episcopal

s'St. Paul upon Mars Hill was not more
polished and polite, nor before Agrippa more
courtly and grand. With his order of mind
and long habits of study, all of his productions
are fifty Joined together and comPacted by that
which every joint supplieth." and made lu-
minous and eloquent by the light and life of
intellectual fervor, and chaste and elegant in
the selection and connection of language,
equally when dropping from the pen and the
pulpit. lie is Chesterfield in politeness,
without the cold fromalitics of conventional
propriety.
Gas an advocate at the bar, he bears the
strongest resemblance to Rufus Choat; and
as an orator on populor occasions he is about
equally removed from Edward Everett and
Mr. Webster. While he was an editor of the
Quarterly ReUiec he gave proof of his fine
litarary discrimination and his superior skill
in the proper sphere of literary criticism, and
won for himself a distinction in the proper
use of the English language, as q vehicle of
thought, that should make him the Addison
of American Methodist literature while his
pulpit efforts have in them finished diction,
a choice rhetoric, an earnest utterance, and
kindling power and pathos, that approach
nearer what we conceive of the eloquent
Apolos than any other apostle. With
fnely-strung constitution, and highly-toned
temperature, and with the nervous fluids near
the surface, lie is keenly alive to all his sur
roundings, and marvellously sensitive to each
shifting scene upon the Methodist drama

The Cooperative System Cheap Bread.

Mr.. Editor There is almost an infinite
variety of subjects to which the benefit of
association has been made applicable. This
principle is the basis of all corporations, and
has done more than has been accomplished
by all other means, to give success to the en-
ergies and develope the resources of commu-
mites and nations What individual effort,
from its feebleness, would utterly fail to do,
association by its power easily achieves
. Combinations of the kind referred to seemed,
however, until late years, to be the resort of
capitalists. only, in the management of enter
priscs of vast proportions. The idea that
they were available for the ordinary and every
day affairs of men is of modern origin. Their
utility is now fndiug illustrations in the COM
monest concerns of life. They are nd longer
powerful engines in the hands of the rich, but
most useful servants to minister to the wants
of the poor. Employing the economics which
they make practicable, the scantiest means
are enabled to secure comforts which, isolated
and unassociated, they could never hope to
obtain.
TIE plan of these associations is generally
