We have received from a 'poick" of the

writer says that like wolves with wild boars,
men are never at ''pease," but are constantly
engaged in tearing out each others eyes
out" Men ''rob their neighbor's pockets"
'And all take the job for the pay,
And so the world wags on from day to day"

And ever win be till man and this world goes

There are bright spots even in the life of
minister-sunnysides in the rough journey
that are really pleasant and inspiring. 1t
must indeed be pleasant reflection to pas
tor to know that his labors are appreciated by
his flock, that they enter with him in sympa-
thy into his great work, and take deep inter-
est not only in his spiritual but in his tenn
poral welfare. Such attention to his wants
serves to encourage him in his labors, and will
help both the giver and receiver. Last even
ing, while Rev. DIR. Kicker, pastor of the First
Baptist church in this city, and the members
of his family were taking tea at the house of
friend, the sanctity of their home was invaded
in the stiffness Of the evening and conveying
certain mysterious looking packages. After
taking possession of every part of the house,
the tables were speedily loaded with tempting
food, hot coffee supplied and arrangements
made for good time in the house of the minis
ter. About eight o'clock the Doctor and his
family were summoned home by messenger.
On opening the door they were in maze of
bewilderment. They were obliged to ground
arms at the outer door in obedience to the be-
hests of fair scntinels, and compelled to SUBJ
init to an unconditional surrender. After
being conducted to the parlor, one of the
company in brief remarks, in behalf of the
society, presented to the Doctor and his fam
lily marble top centre table on which was
arranged magnificent silver tea service, full
set, besides several other articles for use and
ornament, the whole costing over one hun
bred dollars. The Doctor responded to the
presentation speech in very handsome man
uer, although his feelings came near getting
the mastery. After congratulations, pleas
ant evening spent in conversation and social
enjoyment, closing with a bountiful repast,
the company took leave of their pastor and his
family, with their bump of benevolenee en-
larged and their affections and kindly feelings
strengthened. The surprise was most COM
plete one, and the complimentary testimonial
well deserved and appreciated. There were
over two hundred guests present during the
evening, some outside of the Society, the
warm friends of DR.. Kicker and his family

We find in the Portland Daily Advertiser a
decision in bankrupt case which may be of
interest to our readers. 4. X. Dresser had
been adjuged a bankrupt on the petition of
hi. creditors, and warrant had been issued
to the Marshal as Messenger, requiring him to
take possession of all the estate of the bank
rupt, and ordering the bankrupt within ten
days to deliver to the Messenger a schedule
Of his creditors, and an inventory of his es-
tate. Tine schedule and inventory were de-
livercd to the Marshal, and from the inventory
it appeared that the debtor was possessed of
Sl56.50. This sum had been repeatedly de-
manded by the Marshal, but the bankrupt had
never paid over any part of it, at last excus-
ing himself by claiming he had spent it in the
support of his family. c. p. Mattocks was
chosen assignee Of the bankrupt and not hav
ing received this amount, he petitioned the
court for an order to show cause why he had
not paid over the money, and that he should
be adjudged guilty of contempt of the order
of the court. This bankrupt was brought into
court in Portland before Judge Fox, and the
court decreed that the bankrupt was guilty of
contempt in not complying with the warrant
of the court, and ordered that he should be
committed to the Jail in Portland, there to be
detained until he should pay the amount
stated on his inventory together with the cost
or until the further order of court. The bank
rupt afterwards paid the amount. This is
