With no thought Of danger, nor the wailing
and sobbing
OF loved ones in their search the next day
In secrect and silence dread foe is stealing
To do bis dark deeds iE nights shadowy

And soon the sad truth all its horrors reveal

Proclaims to the victims their sorrowful
doom.
Tho house is in flames Hark Out into the
night
Rings the wild cry of fear, and the shrek of
despair;
'Tis moment of anguish and terrible Alright
For many doomed one is perishing there !
The red FIRE is bursting in fury around them,
There's no path Of retreat and no power to
save;
A great band of fire in fury surrounds them !;
No hope and no choice, but this fiery grave.
Some think of home some their prayers raise

Some shuddering look on their merciess
foe;
Others with wild curses-and many are given
To the 6ery furnace in its awful glow.
More fercely and fast the wild flames ar,

More faint grow the shrieks and more fear

Amid the mad flames they are fast disappearing
And death aud destruction triumphat hay

Mrs. Liston was in the extreme of
exultation. All had gone forward
most prosperously. Charlotte, it was
true, moved about like one more dead

the marriage speedily consummated (;
and, if possible, without Mr.. Liston's
knowledge for there was no knowing
whether he would not imperatively
annul all the transactions, unless they

Charlotte was passive; ready to consent
to any thing-a puppet in her mothers
hands. Mr. Cords had no particular
wish to be brought tete-a-tete with Mr..
Liston, so that his absence from the
ceremony would be particularly pleasing
to him. IL was therefore arranged at
Mrs. Marsh's residence, between that
lady, Mrs. Liston, and Mr.. Cords, that
the knot should be tied in Mrs. Marsh s
parlor, upon the third afternoon thence ;
when Mr.. Liston had declared that some
little business would detain him from
home during the entire afternoon and
evening.
Mr.. Cords purchased an elegant bridal
dress for Charlotte, and "a rich set OF
jewelry. There was, however, to be
but little ostentation attending the cere-
mony-the circumstances would not
admit Of it. The day came. Charlotte

A SIN AGAINST NATURE. OF all the
blunders that the common farmer, and
soine others. make with trees, none is so
common, or so hurtful, and which he is
SO long finding out, and which he might
know so certainly, as the practice of cut
ting off lower limbs. All over the coun-
try nothing is more common than to see
mutilated trees on almost every farm
big limbs cut off near the body Of the
tree, and Of course rottening to the heart.
This is heart sin against nature. The
very limbs necessary to protect the tree
from wind and sun, and just where limbs
are needed most, they are cut away
But the greatest injury is tho rottenirg
hat always takes place when big limb
sawed of-too big to heal over, it
must rot. and, being kept moist by the
growing tree, is in the right condition to
rot, and being on the body, the rotting
goes to the heart and hurts the whole
tree II is common all over the coun-
try to see large orchards mutiated in
this way. Trees, like children, should
be pruned when young If pruned in
the early stage of the growth the wounds
will heal and if we'll done your trees will
be healthy and symmetrical in form. -

1t is no wonder that laboring men are
deserting the sham Democracy, and IN
all this iron region the Republicans have
made very large gains Poor men are
constantly insulted by the Democratic
papers, and Democratic demagogues
We heard some of the Democratic lead
ers in jackson charging that Democrats
from Monroe Furnace had been hauled
to the election by order Of Mr.. Sloan'
and voted like slaves. The Democrats
who made this charge are wealthy, hav-
ing acquired their wealth by the labor oi
men at the furnaces.
We give, in other places, the insults
hurled at Democrats by the Herald OF
this place. The Portsmouth Times
true blue Democratic paper, says:
"The Democracy Of Brush Creek want
to know the price of Billy Dodds apples.
How many apples are contained IN two
wagon loads, and how many votes are
they WORTH This is a sum in political
arithmetic worth knowing.
If the above means anything, it means
that Democrats sold their votes for few
apples
Again, the Times says
"The staunch Democrats who stood at
the polls in the 5th ward deserve need
of praise The towards who skulked IN
the rear or who sold their rights to the
corrupt bondholding and Office holding
bribers must feel mean enough without
any further notice at our hands
We do not know how mean Ports
mouth Democrats are but we are Of the
opinion that the above is a foul slander.
And now comes the lronton Democrat
"a .paper edited by John Combs, and
says:
Elizabeth township cast fully 200
votes contrary to the wishes of the voters.
1t was, Vote for Neal or leave the
grounds. There was no choice for the
poor, penniless victims Votes for Neal
were freely and openly purchased at
Hanging Rock"
Here is a charge that hundreds OF
Democrats were so "ornery" that they
were bought and sold like pigs or poul-
try Oh shame on you, for such foul
slander upon men Of your own party.
