ACCOUNT CURRENT.
WOMAN. DIR

WOMAN, DIR.
Oh the woe that woman brings
Source of sorrow, grief and pain
All our evils have their springs
Ir the first Of female train.
Eve by eating led poor Adam
Out of Eden. and astray;
Look for sorrow still where Madam,
Pert and proud, directs the way.
Courtship is slavisl pleasure,
Soothing coquetlish trnin;
Wedded--what the mighty treasure?
Doomed to drag golden chain.
Noisy clach and constant brawlng,
Discord and domestic strife;
Empty cupboard, children bawling,
Scolding woman made wife.
Candy dress and naughty carriage,
Loves fond balance fed and gone
These the bitter fruits Of marriage
He that's wise will live alone
WOMAN, CIR.
oh | what joys from woman spring
Source OF bliss and purest peace,
Eden could not comfort bring,
Till fair woman showed her face.
When he came, good honest Adam
Clasped the gift with open arms,
He left Eden for his madam,
So our parent priced her charms.
Courtship thrills the soul with pleasure;
Virtues blush on beauty's cheek
Happy prelude 10 treasure
Kings have left their crowns to seek
Lovely looks and constant counting,
Sweetning all the tolls Of life;
Cheerful children, harmless sportingl
Lovely woman madea Wife
Modest dress and gentle carriage,
Love Triumphant on his throne
These the bissful fruits of marriage
None but fools would live alone.

developed leave no doubt upon tho subject, a
man who win sell the Offices of the Govern
mcnt as shown in this charge, is certainly u
dangerous mario be President Of the United
States. The Washington Patriot edltorially
states the elimination as follows:
I'm Henry county, Illinois, is settled what
is known rs .the Bishop Hill Colony of
Swedes." These thrifty Seandiuavians owned,
or thought they owned, some eighty acres OF
suburban lots on the outskirts Of Chicago
These lots were held in trust; and one Of the
trustees, Olof johnson, wrongfully AS il would
now seem, in 1866 sold them, or II portion OF
them, for an inadequate Consideration to one
j. Russell JONES' This fraudulent sale never
was discovered until recently, the destruction
OF records by the Chicago fire rendering inyes-
legation difficult. But much more than this
WAS unearthed. II seems that Jones had a
partner in this speculation, to whom he re-
mitted ~ 900 as ashure Of the resale Of o
portion of this Swedish plumber, aud to whom,
for a nominal consideration, one dollar In
hand paid, he conveyed portion Of the land
that was unsold.
The deed is dated on the goth Of May, 1869.
The land conveyed, ns we have said, is the
remnant Of the poor Swedes property Tho
grantor Is j. Russell Jones, the grantee Ulys-
SEES ). Grant, President Of The United States,
who on receiving the ST COO and the deed,
appointed Jones Il minister 10 II leading Court
