CABLE SCREW WIRE Doors AND SHOES

A word of explanation may not be out OF

the old method of peGging, aid quite as soft

proved all that is claimed for it. The increase
in this new method of manufacturing boots

WINTER is now fairly upon us, and

to every man who goes to the woods, be he

to take along good stock Of .JolslsOa's Ano-

Tax-Parer,s Convention.

From the Waco Advance we learn,
that the taxpayers of McLennan
county met on the I4th inst, and took
preliminary steps towards resisting the
payment of the advalorem tax OF sew
en>eighths of one per cent, imposed
by the Board of School Directors of
McLennan county. The resolutions
adopted deny the authority, and as
sert a determination to resist by e7-
cry means known to the law of the
land, the collection of said pretended
tax"
A committee of seven was appoints
ed, under the provisions of a resOIu-
ton, "to take immediate steps 10 test
the legality of said pretended tax"
and was empowered to raise, by sub
scription, a sum sufficient to cover the
expenses of such proceedings, and to
retain the services of such counsel as
may be deemed necessary.
The meeting further declared that
"our action in this emergency is die
tated by no unfriendly spirit towards
the establishment of Public Free
Schools in our midst, and the perfec-
ton of a most thorough system OF
public education, but on the contrary
we are ready to meet and pay off with
promptness any reasonable tax levied
for the purpose aforesaid, whenever
such levy is made by lawful authority,
and there is reasonable assurance that
such tax will be honestly and judi
ciously applied to the purposes for
which it was levied"
The meeting then adjourned to meet
again on the 18th, to take further &C
ton in the premises.

ODE TO LAWYERS.

The devil came TO the earth one day,
And unto a court house wendell his way,
Just as al attorney with very grave face
Was proceeding to argue the poiuCs 70 case.
Now lawyer his majesty never had seen,
Fer to his dominions none ever had beeni
And he felt very curious the reason TO know
Why none had been sent to the regions be-
low.
Twas the fault of his agents, his majesty
thought,
Why more If these lawyers bad ever Teen
caught;
Aud for his own pleasure he had desire
To come to the earth and the reason inquire.
Well, the LAWYER who rose with visage so
grave,
Made out his opponent consummate knave.
And the old devil was muchly amused
To hear the attorney 50 greatly abused.
As soon as the speaker had come to close,
The counsel opposing Their iercely arose,
And heaped such abuse on the head Of the
first
As made him a villain of all men the worst.
Thus they quarreled, commended, and argued
SO long;
Twas hari to determine the enc that was
wrong;
And concluding he'd heard quite enough of
the "fuss,"
Old Nick turned away and soliloquized thus:
"If all they have said of each other be true,
The devil has surely been robbed Of his due;
Pm satisfied now, tits all very well,
These lawyers would ruin the morals of hell.
"They have puzzled the court with villainous
csvil,
And I'm free to confess they have puzzled
the devil;
Ny agents are right to let lawyers 60 bail,
If | had them they'd swindle me out of my
taiIu

pies of the Democratic party, and,
should it be consigned to ruin, may the
curses of the people forever rest upon
these who have been instrumental in
the downfall.
The Radical party was the result of
a similar conception, and is already
tending with unerring course towards
Capitalization, and an entire remod>
cling of the government; one not in
the interest of the governed, but of
the powers that be. There's a d.

The cedar is most useful when
dead. 1t is the most productive
when It's place knows it no more.
There is no timber like it. Firm IN
the grain and capable of the finest
polish, the tooth of no insect will
touch it, and time itself can hardly
destroy it. Difusing a perpetual
fragrance through the chambers
which it cells, the worm will not
corrode the book which it protects,
nor the moth corrupt the garment
which it guards; all but immortal
itself, it transfuses its amaranthine
qualities to objects around it. Every
Christian is useful in his life, but the
goodly cedars are the most useful
afterwards. Luther is dead, but
the Reformation lives. Knox,
Melville, and Henderson are dead,
but Scotland still retains a Sabbath
and Christian peasantry, Bible
in every house, and school in every
parish. Bunyan is dead, but his
bright spirit still walks the earth
in its "Pilgrim'S Progress. Bax:
ter is dead, but souls are quickened
by the "Saint's Rest" Cowper is
dead, but the "goldeu apples are
still as fresh as when newly gathered
in the "silver basket" of the Olney
Hymns. Eliot is dead, but the
missionary enterprise is young.
Henry Martyr is dead, but who can
count the apostolic spirits who,
ph@nix-like, have started from the
funeral-pile? Howard is dead, but
modern philanthrophy is only com
mencing its career. Raikes is dead,
but the Sabbath schools go on

On Tuesday night last, early in the
evening, the Indians passed down to
Llano county, through Burhet, and
came to within three and half miles
above Blufton, and what is there called
the Colorado Saline" They shot
at William Miller, the arrow striking
him on the side, passing through his
clothes and at most making but a
slight wound. These same Indians
have been seen as late as Thursday
last, the 18th inst, in the Crownover
settlement, but what damage has
been done in the way of numbering
and stealing we have not leaned.
These facts have been furnished US by
D. c. Cowan, Esq, an early settler
in fact the first of the Fisher and
Miller Colony--in Llano County, and
is a frontiersman of undoubted grit,

The indications are, that some kind
! a compromise will be agreed to
the British government, in regard
'sequential damages in the Ala
ase. When the present ex-
mt ceases the English people
no doubt, see the propriety of
an amicable adjustment of the claims,
and be prepared to listen to the details,
the uncertainty of which now create
othing but alarm in the English mind:
We believe that, had they an assurance
these indirect damages would not ex-
eeda certain specified and reasonable
I'm, there would be no further demon
ton against the claims.
