Of the election Of those officers, the Lcgis-

respect, IS it might have done. The words
"oficcs thereafter to be filed" cannot be
intelligibly construed unless they be taken
il connection with the various acts of the
Legislative Assembly, creating the Offices,
defining the duties Of their iocumbents,
limiting their terms, &C., &C., for it is
necessary to refer to those acts even to as.
certain what officers are to be elected.
Nowhere does an intention appear in the
Act Of Congress to shorten the terms of
the officers already elected, and there is
no repugnancy between it and those of the
Legislative Assembly, except in the mat

100000 Of the population attend public

being drunk on the streets the men who
live by gambling number 10000; the

What they go in on in Tennessee.

Jim Robinson, with his company pass
through the city IL few days ago for Gin
cinnatti, breaking up his southern ap-
pointments. He was led to take this
course by little incident which took
place at Murfeesboro, Tenn. In the
afternoon six foot chap. backed by ten
followers ofsimilar caliber, went up to
Robinson, who was keeping door, and
remarked:
"We're going in"
"Tickets, gentlemen" responded the
amiable bare back rider.
"This is what we're going in on re-
sponded the six footer, drawing huge
revolver.
This sort offender was exposed by his
amiable followers, and they passed in
much to the disgust of Robinson. They
kept quiet during the performance, thus
disappointing Robinson, who during
the evening had armed all his men.
The fate of the unfortunate Col. Ames
in Georgia, together with this tritiing
incident, and a scarcity of money was
sufficient to cause Robinson to break his
southern engagements and retire to the
north of Ohio.
The revolver Is a powerful means OF
helping one along, either OIL the high
way or In the eiscus.

Feeling the importance of my posi-
sition as hostess, / undertook to show
Sophy all the sights. First we went to
the carriage house and played drive,
until we were tired Of getting in aud
out Of the vehicles. Then we visited
the hens aud geese in their homes, paid
our respect to the pigs, talked hog latin
to a lovely calf. and made the acquaint
ance of a pony in his stall.
Next to the sawtnill the barn was the
most tempting place 10 resort in those
days. Where was there ever a child
who was fond of climbing? l was no
exception to the general rule; and we
scrambled up and down the ladders, aud
play ed hide seek in the hay, until
the bell rang for dinner.
"Now," said, as we went down the
garden-walk, after that meal was over,
"if you never'i tcll-ncrer, NEVER, rs
long as you live and brea,he-I will take
you somewheie.'
Sophy promised with satisfactory ad-
jectives.
"Come, then; we'll get there in a jif
fy."
Sophy did not understand scaling
fences as well as did. On the top of
the wall, she stepped upon a teetering
stone, and was pitched headlong In
among some briars and thistles on the
other side. She was pretty badly
scratched, and her dress was torn, but,
after shedding Il few tears, sho laughed
quite merrily, and said she could fall
twice as far If she had Il mind to.
"Uncle Willard" was haying in the
lower meadow and the mill was alone

be! Wouldn't she think l was grand,
though, if l could run saw>mill.

Abuse Of the Title Reverend.

A well known physician not a hun
dred miles from Boston asks US to copy
the following from the Tribune:
We trust that respectable clergymen
will pardon us if we US if we say that the
profession itself is partly to blame for
the free use which il made Of the title
Reverend, by unscrupuleus adventu-
rers. Whether out of amiability of
temper, and the desire to Oblige, or for
some other reason less creditabie, cler-
gymen have always been too ready to
lend the influence Of their names to
render advertisements pungent. and per-
suasive. Almost any member Of theu
medical faculty will testify (solnetimes
with tears in his eyes that quacks and
nostrum manufacturers are constantly
cheating ministers out Of certificates and
recommendations. In respect to pills
however inert, or potions however nasty
Of infallible remedies, panaoeas, and
cathO.icons, ministers are the most
credulous of mankind. They will dis-
card the fine old family doctor who has
gratuitously physicked and bled them
for years, and take to their respectable
bosoms any errant and arrant empiric,
whose fawning may secure their atten-
ton, and whose fluent tongue may cheat
their understanding. They swallow the
mixture; their Pensioners swallow the
mixture. One congregation doses itself
because another has; and the result, gIo-
rious and golden, is the sale Of innumer.
able bottles of cheap tinctures, and
countless boxes Of good or-nothing pills
at comparatively exhorbitant prices-a
cruel fraud if medicine be really neces-
sary, and an insult if it is not to many AL

The squares and pleasure grounds Of
Paris have been planted with cabbages
and caulifiowers for the use Of Of the

Under Thy loving care
Another day has passed;
Its sacrifice bear
To Thee ut last.
Thou knowest every cross,
Each pleasure and each pain;
Thou seest what Is loss,
And what is gain.
These tangled threads of life
Thou holdest in Thy hand.
And Thou their seeming strife
Dost understand.
So in Thy loving care
1rest, secure, forgiven;
Thou wilt the morrow's work prepare,
Or give me Heaven.
