On Tuesday last, 9th inst, one Thomas
Hardy; was arraigned in Philadelphia before
U. s. Commissioner Biddle upon the charge
OF falsely registering under a fictitious name
in various election divisions of the city :;
and policeman was also arraigned at the
same time upon the charge of aiding Hardy
= in his false registration. After being ar
rested Hardy confessed that the charge was
true. 1t seems that numbers of the police
force are accustomed to aid in these frauds
by vouching for the perpetrators. -a'ar@

Reasons against PrOfane Swearing.

Rev. Thomas Lightbody thus states
them:
|. 1t is sinful. Profane swearing is pro-
hibted by the Most High as plainly as
murder. From Sinai the words were ut
tered, Thou shalt not take the name of
the Lord thy God in vain" Abiding to
oaths in common conversation, the Saviour
says, ''Swear not at ALL
IL. 1t is vulgar The practice gives
pain to all but the most abandoned. 1T
is,n says Washington, "a vice so mean
and low that every person of sense and
character despises it.
III. 1t is inexcusabe. He whose tongue
is vibrating with oaths will generally ad-
nit that his conduct is altogether indefen-
sible.
". 1t is injurious. The profane swear
er is curse to the community, for he
brings down upon it the Judgment of heav-
en-. Because of swearing says the
profit, ''the land mourneth."
V. 1t is Improbable. The man guilty
thereof is as fish caught by hook to
which there is no bait attached. He is a
volunteer for Satan. He works for the
devil and ''iinds himself.n
VI. 1t is dangerous. The Lord will
not hold him guiltless, who taketh His
name in vain The words of the profane
swearer may, as he says, be "but wind"
The wind, however, is one that blows to-
ward hell.

FEMALE SOCIETY.

John Randolph, the eccentric statesman
and orator of Virginia, never uttered a
truer remark than this: without female
society we should degenerate into brutes.n
Every day we are more forcibly impressed
with the truth OF this observation, and the
young men of the present day, especially,
have need to ponder these words. The
gentleness of her manner, the sweetness
OF her disposition, the purity of her nature,
and her natural grace and dignity, are the
irresistible charms which will prove the
salvation of those who come within the
sphere of her influence, for the love and
society of q virtuous, intellectual lady, is
the most effectual safeguard young men
can have against temptations so prevalent
in crowded cities. 1t is true, that men,
immersed in business or absorbed in liter
ary pursuits, OF in search for political
honors, may, after a manner, live without
the refining, elevating companionship OF
the other sex, but such an isolated exist
ence is imperfect at best, and there is no
real heartfelt happiness to brighten it.
Man was not made to live alone, and des-
pite his pretended cynicism and dislike OF
woman, he often yearns TOR quiet home,
irradiated by the smile of some chosen
one, as the sunlight illumins the lonely
vale, and his soul is sad and lonely, with
out the congenial mate that Heaven de-
signed should be mis- from the beginning.
Then in the hour of trouble, of sickness
what is man without the tender ministra-
tions, the soothing presence and gentle
voice of an household angel; her contiding
ways, her tenderness, aye, her helpless
ness, all render her inexpressibly dear,
and the true husband feels in the depths
of his heart, that life would have no
charm without her society. All! thank
God for woman This is the utterance
that springs involuntarily to every heart
that has felt the holy power of her love
and presence. With her to lead one
away from the wees and vanities that be-
set us, our heart will grow tenderer,
purer and better day by day.-Farmer's S
