difficulty resulted in their arrest
and yesterday Judge Cranmer fined
Hazlett FIVE dollars and costs for disor-
derby conduct, and Helt the same amount
for assault and battery. They both paid
their fines.
Robert Whiteman succeeded in putting
his hide around tremendous lou OF Dau

BELLATRE.


AT a recent meeting of the official
brethren ofthe NJ. f. Church, it was re-
solved that the communications which
have from time to time made their ap-
pearance in the columns of the city
Commercial in reference to the deport-
mcnt of Rev. Rodgers, have grossly rHis-
represented his true character, and in a
great measure had a tendency to do him
injury as n minister of the Gospel.
It was further resolved that the author
of those communications, whose sigma
ture was IN, never had, nor can he lay,
any claims to my personal injury done
! him, or can he assign any reason or pre-
text for the falsifving and scandulous
communications or statements, which he
has from time to time made or caused 10
be made. And furthermore that no as
sertiOns made concerning either pastor
or his congregation, by that journal
or its editress, contains the least shadow
of truth, but to the contrary, has justly
meritcd the disapproval and utter con-
demnation Of her sentiments by all re-
spectacle members of the VI. +. Church.
In attestation Of the above, we, the
official members of the VI. +. Church.
have caused our names 10 be affixed.

This is my prayer;

Or which way mine may be;
Ifmine will lead thro' parching sands,
And thine beside the sea;
Yet God keep watch tween thee and me;
So never fear;

And keeps us near.
Should wealth and fame perchance be thine,
And my .ot lowly be;
Or you be lone and sorrowful,
And glory be for me-
Yet God keep watch tween thee and me-"
Both be his care;
One arm round thee, and one round me,
Will keep us near.
I sigh some times to see thy face.
But since this may not be,
I'll leave thee in the hands Of Him

One wing Ger thee, and one DER me;
So we are near.
And tho our roads be separate,
And thy way is not mine,

Mr.. THOMPSON:
Sir-Cannot something be done to
prevent the brutal treatment of animals
which is so often witnessed in our streets?
Ladies' are constantly shocked by see
ing horses, mules, and dogs cruelty beat
en-, not only by boys but by men too. If
there is no law to prevent this can we
not have here as elsewhere society for
the "preyention of cruelty to animals. "
