A kiss, however pleasant, may cost too
much. Here we have an account Of a
Missourian who INDUCED in the saluta-
ton OF 6ne young woman, aud Of what
happened TO him. The magistrate fined
him, the fine young woman's brother
horsewhipped him, his wife worried him
into brain fever, the parson alluded to
him personally in strong sermon, the
local editor took sides with the clergy
man and pilloried him in loaded long
primer; finally, he was punished by a
special Providence, for the potato bugs
left their potatoes to eat eat every blade
of his wheat crop. Let the kissingly in
clined take warning.

THE RIVERS AND WEATHER.
The river fell eight inches during the
pas, twenty-feur hours, and continues Il
decline at about that rate each day. AL
OF the streams above here are falling
and low water will be the next news We
hear from the Ohio and Missouri. Be
tween here and Cairo there is nearly
three fathoms, and between Cairo and
St. Louis the channel is deep, and will
not be troublesome for some time. The
water in the upper Mississippi is getting
very thin, and the through packets will
soon find trouble at the rapids, where
they have but a few inches over fouI
feet. The Arkansas is falling, and has
but two and a half feet to Little Rock
and above there navigation is suspended
White river has two feet to JacksonporI
and is falling. The weather continues
clear and pleasant.

this county, will not let the subject of a
county convention drop, but will take hold
of the matter in good earnest. 1t is just
what is needed in this country to stir up a
plenty of talent that is now lying dormant
and Indifferent. We think that convention
should be held under the direction of the
County Agricultural Society and hope prom
inent farmers will see to it that their voice
is heard in the matter. Let the Farmers
Clubs talk it up.
