A clergyman at Council Bluffs charges
by weight in marrying couples, the rate
being four cents a pound for the groom
and two for the bride.
He should reverse his rate Of charges,
and charge double per pound for the
bride; for the most valuable articles are
done up in small packages, 1--WE do not
mean hoops, panniers, and all the other
-tOggeFy d and even if the bride should
happen to be the heavier, her quality
makes her more precious, and double
price should be charged.

The measures he has introduced have
the merit Of being all foftae public ben

course In the House on other matters
won the respect of his fellow-members.
and whenever he gained the floor they
sought to hear him with the certainty

matter what their politics ma be, and
we hope his constituents VIII take this
into consideration.

 On Sunday evening, 4wo powerful showers passed over this town. For sev- eral hours in the fore part of the evening the atmosphere was constantly filled with sheet lightning, and in the latter part of the night the rain came down in torrents, in two separate showers; several claps of thunder were so heavy as to shake the houses to their foundations. Whether any serious damage has been done we have not yet heard. --1 s--

a Disgrace.

A disgrace and shame was the action of
the police authorities of New York city on
the 18th Of January, in driving from Temp
kins square the laborers who had there as
sembled for the discussion of questions
affecting their condition. The poor and
honest laborers were, for their presumption,
punished by the police with smashed heads
and other violence. Such is not novel treat
mcnt of the weak in this country; when
the poor should be protected, it has generally
been true that they were outraged. When
rlght-minded and truly patriotic persons
sought the overthrow of slavery, and to make
liberty in this country fact as we'll as
name, the police, instead of protecting them
in the freedom of speech in presenting their
ideas, which are now fashionable, sided with
the mob, and broke up meetings held in the
interest Of humanity and freedom. When
Erie rings, gold gamblers, wheat rings, cotton
rings, credit mobiier rings, coal spectators,
&c., meet to devise plans for robbing the
people and to bring to them the distress
which is true Of the poor of New York, no
club-armed policeman is at hand TO dispense
the real enemies Of society, and the true dis
turbcrs of the peace and prosperity Of the
community; but let the injured dare COM
plain, and Immediately the police are let
loose upon them, and the jails are filled with
men whose only crime is being hungry and
seeking work.
