by Pi-esiclr-tit Pierce, will be read with

“He had mily.to say now, what he
had always said, that he regarded Sla-
very as one of the greatest moral and so-
cial evils--a curse upon the whole cou_n-
try, and this he believed to be the semi-
ment. of all parties, at the North.
Hewas free to admit that he had
liitnselfapproaclictl this subject of annex-
ation (of Texans.) with all his prejudices
and piepossessioiis against it, and on one
,i,,-,'_1‘Dllll('l‘i.=llOl1e—~llS Slavery feature. ‘His
i-otivictioiis on this subject were, as had
beeii slated, stroiig---not the result of
any new light, but deeply fixed and abi-
diiig. The only difficulty in his mind
“ Behold /1020 great a Jlfatter a Little
I-‘2.7'c Ifz'nrllezh.”-—Tliis exclamation of
the inspired ivriter has received in our
city within a few days, several practical
and ui'ifort.unate illustrations; yet the
truth of this remark is correct, literally
as well as irietapliorically. The insidu-
ons attacks of disease, particularly that
most fiatteriiig of all complaints, Con-
sumption, comes by a gentle hacking
Collgil, which is too often neglected un-
til all , remedies prove useless. The
young, with that recklessness which
buoyancy engenders, are particularly re-
gardless of their health; and the_ melan-
choly evidence of the bills of mortality
which weekly stare us in the. face, tells
us too plainly, that litindreds in our city
are yearly swept away by that deceiving
but remorseless destroyer, pulmonary
disease. If there was no remedy for so
unfortunate a state of affairs, the situa-
tion of each person would be one of C61?!-
tinitcd apprehension; but it is gratifying
to know that there is a “Balm in Gi-
lead,” and that by a timely and judicious
use of the remedies placed at our hands,
we may avert the attacks of disease and
its ultimate effects. It is with none of
the usual clap-trap adobted by quacks
that we earnestly recommend the use of
Dr. Rogers’ Syrup of Liverwort, Tar
and Canclialaguain all cases of coughs»
colds, bronchitis or influenza. Its merits
are ‘established upon a firm basis ; and its
power to promote expectoration, and re-
move the phlegm and other morbid se-
cretions, is well attested by irrefragible
evideiicc. Major Van Buren, brother Of
to the ex-President, and James Watson
\\"e‘.«>b, editor of the Courier and Enqui-
rer, both bear voluntary testimony to its
valiie and efiicacv. ,, The fire departments

How Men “Bust Up."—Mt-n with
unassuming wives Iiever fail. It is the
husbands of such women as Mrs. Dash
and Lady Brilliant, who find themselves
face to face with the Sheriff, and certain
mysterious documents adorned with red
tape and wafers big enough for target
exercise.
The desire of a New York. feminine
is to outshine her neighbors—not in men-
tal acquirements, but in gingerbread or-
naments and gold edged coal scuttles,—
If Mrs. Dash gives a game supper-—
wood-coclt stuffed with gold dust-—Lady
Brilliant takes the wind out of her sail
by getting up another, in which the pre-
vailing dish will be birds of paradise,
swimming in gravy made of melted
pearls. It is this rivalry, and not " dab-
bling in railroad stocks," that brings ru-
ination to the fast men of VVnll-st. The
“ ill fortime”-of which they complain, ll
is no more than a brainless wile. If they
would come back to happiness, they
should direct their attention, not to the
fluctuations of the stock market, but to
the ruinous absurdities of their own fire-
side. Thousand dollar repasts don't pay,
while the..merchant who purchases hun-
dred dollar handkerchiefs for l‘ a duck of
a wife,” should not wonder if the time
eventually came when “ a goose of a
husband" lacked shirts, and was but ill
supplied with breaches.
Spunky Yankee Lieutenant.
Lieutenant Sheldon, of the United
States Artillery, a strange iron-hearted
man, stood by his gun at the battle of
Lacole mill, (Can-.tda,) until every other
man had left it. The enemy, seeing his
condition, <9lit a detachment to talzeliim
and the guti ; bttt he maintained his po-
sition till the columns came within close
pistol shot, when he touched it off. The
order to fire had been given the same in-
stant to the infantry, arranged somewhat
in the form ofa semi-circle in the woods
and when the smoke. cleared away, only
one oflthe whole detachment was standing
on his feet, and he making rather accele-
rated l‘ track” for the mill. , Sheldon once
refused to take off his hat in a Canadian
theatre, while the orchestra played "God
save the King," when an English officer
geminded him of his neglect.
some reply which led to a duel. A friend
of Sheldon endeavored to dissuade him
from fighting, saying, that he ought to
apologize-Jfor his conduct, as the estab-
lished custom, requiring every one to be
uncovered when " God save the King"
was played, should have been respected.
Sheldon, however, was obstinate about
it, when his friend told him that his an-
tagonist never missed his aim, and that
lie was a " dead man," if he fought.
"'1‘hen,” said Shelton, " there will be
two dead men!" They fought, and the
English officer fell dead at the hrst fire.
Sheldon was also shot through and
through. He, however, lingered on for
some six months, and finally died in
Boston. He retained his almost unnat-
ural fearlessness and hardihood to [the
last, and would accost his friends, as they
stole softly to his sick chamber, with,
'‘ Walk in pall-bearers, walk in.” He
was a Pittsfield man, and was “_such
stuff as heroes are made of.”

has bggn a triumph of Right, fl victory""ribt' of

be heralded. For this result We are indebted
to honest men of all parties. Hundreds of

said that “darkness and a chilly atmosphere
prevailed" and notwithstanding several elo-

get up steam. We should have thought, the
Committee would have known better than to
call such a meeting so soon after the clection—_
for the Whigs, it is said, all died last full, and
if the Democrats are not also dead, they seem
from their lengthened visitges, to have all just
returned from the funeral. '

Duel at Silvetmine.
The peace and quiet of this romantic corner
of the town, was thrown into a convulsive state
of excitement and alarm, last week, on account
of a duel having actually been fought between
two Lotliarios, who, feeling the “ pangs of‘ ‘un-
requited love” resolved “ to do or die.’-‘. They
caught this expedient to redress, their wrongs
no doubt from Messrs. Cutting and Brecken-
bridgc, although it was upon it new Bo1met_
Bill, rather than a “ New Basket Bill,” which
occasioned their unhappiness. It is said that
the belligerants were really bent on each
other's destruction, and it was only throiigh the
peace loving propensities of their seconds, who
fearing to spill any claret in that temperance
locality, loaded their pieces with putty, rather
than leadcn bulls. Shots were excliangcd, with-
outdoing any serious damage, when both were
pronounced pluck, and full satisfaction having
been had, it was resolved that they should both
start afresh for the conquest of the calico.
Pleasing -Incident.
The ladies and gentlemen belonging--to the
choir of the First Congregtitioiial Church, de-
siring to express ,1-hell‘ apprcciatioii of and
good will toward their leader, Mr. E 0. Dis-
sell, presented him last Saturday evening. du-
ring recess of the rehearsal, with beautiful and
costly copies each of the Bible and Psalms.
Mr. Bisscll said, that, in accepting f.hcselto-
kens of’ their esteem and friendship, coming so
unexpectedly upon him, his feelings would not
allow themselves expression as the occasion re-
quired, but that be thanked them from the
bottom of his heart, and felt that if he had in
any measure deserved this mark of approba-
tion it was solely owing to the invariable
courtesy on their part whiclrhad characterized
their intercourse for nearly fifteen years.

Thts corporation, with the tle.-ign of
reimbursing tlieniselve.-: for losses su-lain-
ed through the neglect and improper
conduct of their agents, who the last.
year consigned upwards of fifty travelers
to an untimely grave at Nnrwalk Bridge,
Connecticut, has increased their rates of
.'are, on all lliaf part of their road which
runs on the soil of New York, to the ex-
tent of forty pier (!Pnl1llll.
This uncalled for, llllplldt-‘.111, invidious
and outrageous increase, finds no justifi-
cation in existing facts, It is imposfll
on New York only, whilst Connecticut,
the state. to which the road belongs, and
iivhicli has a right. to control it, realizes
no increase of rates_. From the western
cut, the road is on New York soil; and
from 'Williams' Bridge to the depot in i
Centre street in this city, it uses the Har- ,
lem Railroad, as it possesses no ciiarter- l
ed right beyond the former” point. The
indulgence extended to it, by the state of ‘
New York, should be rcquited in some,
other way than by imposing inordinate
taxation on oitr citizens. The oppres-I
sion inflicted on our citizens, who reside ‘
on the line of the road between New 9
York and the county of Fairfield, by the
New Haven company should not be en- _
dured, a_pd demands legislative interven- I
tion. _ .
Along the line of the road, from Wil-
liams’ Bridge to the Connecticut line, the
citizens of New York, have establisheda
series of populous towns and villages, all
of which pay tribute to the wealthy and
overgrown monopoly question. It was
understood by and between the villagers,
when they commenced operationsthat the
price of fare then dematided might be de-
creased ; but, should never be augmen-
ted. The false faith oftlie Railroad com-
pany, exhibited in a spirit of meanness as
soon as it sustained a loss, is not less pro-
voking tlianiiiijurious to the villagers,
and cannot be too strongly coudenuied.
It is in keeping with that mercenary and
infamous» policy, which has distinguished
Connecticut management, and which
seeks to pick the pockets of her neigh-
bors, to fill her own coffers. ’ Connecti-
ciit suffers the Next’ Haven" Railway to
impose taxation on the citizens of New
York, but refuses to allow her own peo-
ple to be sivilidled.-—New '0rk Atlas_
3:3, The Editor of the Atlas is vastly more
velienient in his conilemnatioii than truthful.-
The fact is that the rates of fare have been rai-
sed all along the line of the road, not brought
into actual competition with Steamboats. The
villages along the line in Connecticut pay as
high it per cent. increase as the towns in New
York State. Thus much for the truth. Now
its to Connecticut suffering the New Haven Co.
to impose taxation on the citizens of New York
State, while she protects her own citizens from
the swindle, we presume that those honest bulls
and bears in Wall street, have a. little more to
do with that matter than the good - people of
Connecticut. If there is any “swindling” any-
where, we think it consists in the people of
New York compelling this road to pay an enor-
mous tribute to the Harlem road, a road which

but for thisimposition, we presume could not
live, and we citizens of Connecticut, have to
help support and sustain your monopoly. We
have doubted the policy of raising the fares
upon this road and we think the company will
find that in this matter they have signally erred,
as we know it will cause a great dimunltion of
travel to and from the city or divert it to oth-
er channels. But that is their business and not
ours. This road and company have enjoyed
an unprecedented degree of popularity and
public confidence, originating from low fares,
accommodating employees, and an unpreceden-
ted liberality in its management. And omens-
urc seriously affecting those former ‘ qualities
will most assuredly affect its popularity and
consequently tend to diminish its income. We
think too, that if any town should complain at
the raising of fares, it is the town of Norwalk,
where the dreadful calamity occurred, and
where our people almost to an individual ex-
pended their time and means without reserve,
for the accomuiodation and relief of the suffer-
ers. It is true that all who presented their bills
for such service were liberally paid, but there
were hundreds who did what they could from
no desire or expectation of recoiupense, and
would have scorned any pay. Enough of such
little offers of kindness were exhibited, we take
it, by ourpeoplc, to convince the Directors of
the company that it most liberal and generous
feeling pervaded this community, and if so
satisfied, we do think we ought to be placed
upon a footing with those towns, where the fa.
cilities of a sound pasmge to New York have
prevented ll. rise in the fares.

that willow twigs were good enough for the best of folks

Bate suffered dreadfully from bad legs ; they were cov-
ered from the knee to the ankle with sores and proud
fie.-:li, interspersed with white rind red blotche.-i. He‘
used }{ullow.i_v‘s Pill.-i and Ointment, which produced I
most extraur-.linary result, for in less than three weeks
the sores were healed and be walked about with can
and comfort. Ills legs are now perfectly sound and well
and his btidily health improved. -
