stopped lately. and there Is considerable hard

To all Whom it Nay Concern.

The undersigned be@ leave to call attention
to the fact, that the repairs made upon the
Methodist Church arenot yet paid for III iuIi'
The merchants and mechanics to whom we
are indebted, are anxi ious for their dues. The
Church desires to cancel the debt at an early
Gay. To this end. we would beg those who
have not yet paid their subscriptions, 10 DO
so rs soon as possible. The amounts coming
from each one are small, but the aggregate
will materially assist us If, however, all who
have subscribed pay their respective amounts
this will not enable us to liquidate the debt
by, at least. t,co hundred and .ftty dollars. For
the cost of the repairs and JtrRitue of the
Church greatly exceed the original subscrip-
tOn. Hence. We are compelled to make an
other effort for money. This is the Lords
House. In it we aught TO feel common in
terest land for it we ought to give liberal
contribution. Will not tine citizens Of all
Buren, and vicinity assist us in this "tme
Of need 2" We feel profoundly grateful for
your past liheralty and think that the bare
mention of the present necessity Will provoke
YOU to good works. our anxiety to rid the
Church ofts liabilities is increased by a de-
sire to assist our Presbyterian brethren in re-
pairing their Church Building. We want to
render them thank-ofiering for their past
kindness. Every contribution, whether great
or small. will be gratefully received. You

The Cher0kees.

How easy it is for us, in regarding the
sufIerngs Of oppressed peoples in for
eign lands "to damn the sins we have
no mind to" while equally damning sin,
in some different form, lies at our own
doors quite unnoticed. Here, for exam
pie, is Lewis Downing, the chief OF the
Cherokee nation, uprisen as q witness
against "the best government the sun
ever shone upon" Last Thursday, in &C
cordance with a proclamation from his
pen, was kept by the Cncrokees, not as
Thanksgiving, but as day of fasting
and prayer for protection against the
United States, this action, in the chief S
opinion, being rendered necessary by the
action of Congress, which has set aside
the treaties made with the Cherokees, and
sold to spectators their lands secured to
them by those solemn instruments Of
writing. The proclamation is n catalogue
Of fearful wrongs and outfages inflicted
upon dcfencoless people. Not only are
thg pernaUusIy taken, 'DuJ cIUlzens OF the
Cherokee nation are arrested by L. S.
Marshals, dragged to prison in q foreign
State, arraigned before a foreign court
and acquitted or condemned at the caprice
of Judges or jurors Of a strange tongue,
in foreign land, who have no sympathy
with the Cherokees, and no regard for
their rights or liberties. In despair of
justice from men, the helpless Cherokecs
spent last Thursday in pitiful appeal for
the protection of the common Creator of
red men and whte.-B4Galo, ". Y,

The LATE ELECTION IN PULASKI CoUN
TY.-As we have previously stated, th,
Radical Clerk of this county not only
permitted the registration books to &c
out of his office, but certified to the Sec
retary of State none but the bogus re.
turns Of the recent election. When APP
piled to by the conservative candidates
for representatives, asking him to certify
ALL returns, he peremptorily refused, and
on yesterday those gentlemen made ap
plication to the supreme court praying
that writ of mandamus be issued to
compel him to certify ALL returns.
Messrs. Rice Il Benjamin, T. ID. w.
Yonley and +, w. CAN'T appeared on be
half Of the clerk, and we presume the
matter will be taken up, discussed and
decided by the court on Monday next.
The decision of the court,in this mat
ter will determine which Of the two elec
tons recently heldin two wards of this
city, and some of the townships of the
county, were legal In the minds all fair
honest, law abiding citizens, there can be

ET The address on Wednesday night
last, before the Teachers Institute, in
this city, by Col, II, l.. MCDONNELL, was
well received by large and attentive au
dience. His subject was Education, with
review of the testimony in favor of
the proposition, that it was the safe poll
cy of every government to educate its
people. 1t was decidedly the largest as
sembly that had met with the Institute
during the week, and we can but think
that it was manifest tribute to the ac
knowledged popularity OF the orator, and
the general interest felt in the subject OF
Education.

Lines Upon the Death of Lee.

Heard you that sound, like a mournful knell.
That swept DER our beautiful landy
It rose from the depths Of our peoples hearts,
For their hero, great and grand.
The tears ranod down from bright, young eyes.
And old sre paled with grief
For the noble head is at length laid low.
Like the Autumn's frosted leaf.
We weep not for him, that he walks no more,
Where are sorrow, care, and pain:
He is garncred home. like the full-ripo corn,
Or the sheaf of golden grsin.I
His royal life was uobly lived,
4 victor, though yanquished was he,
And new he inherits the conquerors crown
In the realms of Eternity.
But sadness will roign o'or our hearts awhile.
That his presence is with more;
That the Sage, and the Chieitain has gone from u
midst,
fAnd his counsos Of wisdom are Ger.
Enshrined in our hearts with a boundless love-:
lie has been for many a year,
Enshrned in our hearts he ever will be,
While VIC hold our country dear.
When the beautiful Autumn its banners spread
Der the land that be loved so well,
They laid his dear form gently down to its rest,
While the tears of the multitude fell.
But his noble example with us yet lives,
Our standard forever to be,
And the brave, and the yirtuous will always revere
The name and memory of Lee.

AN INTERVIEW Win LEE.-Of all the
anecdotes told of Gen, Lee, we have not
read or heard any that tells of the quiet
humor Of his character, and this want we
can supply, While the army were camp
ed around llagcrstown in the first Mary
land campaign, we were serving with the
| rear guard, commanded by an officer of
ths lst Georgia regulars. For three days
the guard and some sixty prisoners had
subsisted on apples, green corn, etc and
no ratons had been issued to us in that
time. In approaching Hagerstown we
passed by the tent of Gen, Lee, and he
was walking up and down before it, ap-
parently in deep thought
The Georgia officer said: Il will go
to Gen Lee and complain that have no
rations, and ask for an order for some"
DO not disturb him, he has enough of
care we advised. "Ycs, | will," said
the officer, and he halted the command
and approached the general who looked
up as he came near, and said: "Well,
captain, what is it ~
General, said the officer, "for three
days and nights have been here with
guard of l00 men and 60 prisoners, with.
out an ounce Of food whatever
Rapidly Gen. Lee replied My dear
sir, is it possible. You are the man that
l have been searching for. Walk into
my tent at once, and impart to me the
secret by which you subsst men without
food. 1t is a problem that has given me
more concern than all others With your
knowledge we can dispense with these
long supply trains, and all the trouble we
are at to obtain food. Walk in and let
me hear so valuable fact which is sure
to obtain our success
The officer Of the Georgia regulars
looked at Lee in amazement and made no
reply, He lifted his hat and turned to
his command, and the word Forward "
rang with sturdy emphasis from his lips.
From that time forward until his annihi-
lated regiment left the Army of Northern
for Macon to recuperate, he
was never known to complain or grum
BILE, and a radical defect in his character
was completely cured by the quiet humor
of Gen. Lee.

reason that there was enough money to
do it; : and, added the speaker, Il know

"The remasks which we have quoted

they were 'inspired.'"

THE L. S. MAR5HAL's OFFICE.-The
Hon. W, A. Britton and Capt. James W.
Donnclley have gone on |" little trip" to
the East, and the u. S. Marshal's Office
has been left by them in charge Of Mr..

duties devolying upon the Marshal ad

him, render this appointment most graf
flying compliment to the acting Marshal
who, in view Of the fact that he has bare
ly attained his legal majority, and has
not resided i'll the State quite one year,
should feel to an extraordinary degree an
appreciation of this mark of the esteem
and reliance whichis placed in him by his
distinguished chief.
