had not gone out that day. The sick
iaaa was dead, witha DAGGER in hi,

Tor a bed showed evidence Of having
been broken open and riaed o. its con
tents. The body was still warm,
showing that the deed had but recent

murderer or murdcrers. An houl
later a man was brought in-one Of
the most villainous-lo looking characters
ever behcld. His pockets were
flied with gold, which was inden,i
ded by the surviving mate as The
property ofhimself and his dead com

There was no mistake about the
matter. The bags in which the dust
was contained were marked with the
J"iat names Of the mates, and the
identity OF the nuggets the surviving
mate sworc to. This was sufficient
to establish the guilt Of the accused.
Some were Cor hanging him on the
spot, but the law-abiding portion Of

insisted upon his having a fair trial
lie was remanded for the night and a
guard placed over him.
Next morning he was missing.
How he eluded the guard they knew
not, but that he had escaped there
could be no doubt. What was worse,
he carried off the gold with him which
had been placed for safe keeping in
the prison to be used as testimony
against him.
1t was deemed idle to pursue HIM,
but a description Of the murderer was
drawn up and circulated, and a re-
ward offered for his capture, dead or

 A dull time for newspapers is now upon us. The Legislature has adjourn ed, there is no election just ahead, no wars nor rumors of wars, and nothing of the kind to furnish exciting topics of discussion. So if our friends through out this county and adjoining counties where we have readers will send us in short, newsy letters, giving the local news we will receive them with many thanks, and will try to make an inter esting paper despite of dull times.

RESUMPTION oF LABOR.

Phylosophy teaches us that no ma- terial substance is everhnnihilated. It also said that mind controls matter and it ought to have been said that labor controls mind and matter. Suppose a poor man who has largefamily they generally do) depending upon his daily labor, should be stricken down with chills and fever, dumb ague, or some thing of the kind. He resorts to qui,l- inc, but the chiils return, he would employ doctor but the cost is to great, and few days lost time is told by the scarce and scanty table and the hunger of his poor family. Quinine sets him crazy, arsenic bloats him, and gelsem- imun makes him see double,. Such s;e man should use nothing but Days Ague Tonic, it will cure him sound and well at once, the chills will not return, and then his labor can be resumed.

Forget Me Not.
DEDICATED TO YOUNG LADY FRIEND OF
 RUSS ELLVILLE.

Forget me not, when others gaze Enamoured on thee with looks of praise, When weary leagues between us both
 are cast, And each dull hour seems heavier than
 the last,
 Oh then forget me not. Forget me not, when yonder stars, When in their orbs doth shine so faint t; When 'round this world from near
 and far, Sun, moon, and stars, make each eom-
 plaint. Oh! then forget me not, Forget me not! when Autumn's
 leaves Fall lightly from their sunburnt boughs, And each tall tree doth seem to seize For one cool drink where the water
 flows.
 Oh then forget me not. Forget me not, when summer has
 COtuc, And the birds are as playful as ever; When they their songs have sung Through the flowery fields of the
 blooming heather.
 Oh then forget me not. Mir. Editor, if you think this worthy of space in your valuable columns, l will be under lifelong obligations. This is my first production of the kind, and should l gain admission into the ranks of the famed I will dedicate my first volume to you. Hoping you will give this place in your next issue, l remain
