How to Kill it Town. --The vener
able Horace tireeky must have had
Beaver in his mind's eve when he wrote
the following paragraph. At all events
it fits COMO of our citizens as if they hall
been measured for It:
"If you wish to keep a town from
thriving, don't put up any more build
ings than you can conveniently occupy
yourselves. f you should accidentally
have an empty dwelling and any one
should want to rent it, ask him three
times the actual value of it. Demand a
Shylock price for every spot of ground
that God has given you stewardship
over. Turn a cold shoulder to every
ms•hanic or business man seeking a
home among you. Look at every new
comer with a scowl. Run down tie
work of every new workman. Go
abroad for warns, rather than deal with
those who seek to do business in your
midst. Fail toadvertise, or in any oth
er way to support your paper, so people
abroad may not knetw whether there is
any business going on in your town or
not. Wrap yourselves up within your
selves with a coat of impervious selfish
ness. There is no more effectual way to
retard the growth of a town than actions
like those enumerated, and there are
people in every town who are pursuing
the above course every day of their
lives, and to whom the above remarks
are most respectfully offered for their
careful attention."
Alt of which is true.
Love. . Elopement. Suicide.
Death.-- Solomon says that "Love is

its Joys and s-rrows could be shared in

I.r of our youthful hero, and some time
ago the couple happy in each other's
smiles and presence, took an informal
leave- he from his daily avocation, and
she from the husband of her youth and
seven rosy-faced children. At Fort
NVavne, Indiana, the refugees were over
taken by the disc ‘insulate husband, who
were passing themselves off as man and
wife. After returning again the love
sick boy made an effort to ison him

purpose was frustrated by tn . Whose
peace and happiness he seemed deter.

About Oysters.—As almost every
person eats oysters now-a-days, we clip
pad publish the following, on the oyster
question, from the Virginia correspond
ence of the NT. Y. Tribune.
There are now in existence sixty
species of oysters, and two hundred fos
siliferous species have been found. Wit
believed by the best informed that the
delicious oysters of Chesapeake Bay will
in time beeonie extinct, and its almost
innumerable beds exhausted, unless
something is t done for their protection
from wholesale destruction. The supply
from the Ray is on the increase. It Is
thought that in forty or fifty years, if
the ti ninterrupted dredging arthe by ate ,
beds is continued, they will be practic
ally exhausted, When a new bed la
found, it is a habit to drag tho heavy
dredges through it year after year, until
there are no oysters left to breed. The
machine crushes the young oysters, im
beds them in the mod, or scatters them
beyond the reach of nourishment, and
inio waters too deep for them to thrive
in. •The remedy is, to sat amend the
oyster laws as to allow dredging in each
particular sound, inlet, or haven only
on alternate years. That is, make it un
lawful to tish in the same beds every
year, with a dredge; and require that
they shall be undisturbed every other
season. Oysters require from four to
six yearn to reach maturity from the
spawn or spat, or from three to five

the oyster is remarkable; ono is believ

spawn, floats in the water, and is soon
protected by a calcareous shell, which is
formed and attachedlo the ranks, Millis•
of vessels, old boott, bottles, lost *natio*,
or any hard substance whatever. Mr.
.Harvey, of Wish itigtOni i uys that he In

which had two bushels and a hallo( fine
oysters fast to it. Oysters grow beet at
the mouths of rivers and inlets where
there is a mingling of Halt and fresh wa

the salt brine of the sea, They do not
develop as well w here thereare not tides

deep or motionless, nor, on the other
hand, where the currents are too swift.
They grow largest whore the sea-bottom
is moderately firm and solid, not where
the mud is deep or the bottom hard and
stony. Oysters sometimes fort beds
which rise to the surface, obstruct navi
gation, and change tidal currents.
Three or four layers are found on the
top of ea:h other, and live and dead oys

The Venlig Men belonging to a MI.

pitch their tent on Monday last, on the
sanks of the Shenatign River ; where
they intend to remain for ten days or
two weeks, and employ their time
hunting, tis hu ig and other sports. The
Courant says; " Every arrangement
has been made to make this excursion
more pleasant, if possible, than any they
have taken heretofore. We give aie
game iish and turtles of that vicinity,

executed upon first-class paper, and is
looked upon as being is very dangerous
counterfeit. Ten dollar bills of the
American National Bank, Broadway,
are freely circulated. They aro well
executed, but can be detected by thedif

with great caution to, preveut imposition.
There are several counterfeit issues of
United States Treasury notes, the most
prominet being the bills of March 10,

well executed that the best experts can
hardly tell the difference between the
counterfeit and the genuine. They can
only be detected in the defective engrav

as genuine. Twenty dollar bills of the
same denomination, of March . 3,186 d,

Ecamomy, therefore, as well as health
and comfort, demands a full supply of
water. Fortunately this can be had, and
it is in contemplation now, though it was
not visible at first sight. On the Poor-
House farm there is a living spring of
clear ejld water, full and perennial hi
supply, and of most excellent quality.
It has been known to the writer over

Judging by the eye this spring is about
one hundred rods above the Poet-House
Mutated beside the little run that flows
toward the house, and just within the
up,perlence of the Frankfort road. Its
height is evidently suffielent to carry the
water high up in the building. On the
hill beside the house is ample room and

Another matter came under observa
tion. Smile of those who have been sent
tothe Poor House are strtr,t7 paupers,
and tine at least has been the inmate of a
penitentiary. They are said to create
dlf
llauityamongtheothers. They not only
refuse to work themselves, but instilop
position into their fellows. They need
a system of rules for their government.
The abound and third sections of the gen
eral poor law of 1838 provides for the cut
ploy:neat, of all paupers, able to work,
according to their ability. The 7th sec
Lion gives power to the Overseers to con
tract fore house or lodging, and for the
keeping, maintaining and employing of
thli paupers, and receiving the benefit of
their work, toward their maintenance
and support ; and it provides that if any
poor person shall refuse to be kept and
employed in such house, he shall riot be
entitled to receive relief from the over
seers, during such refusal. The act of
1851 providing for the establishment of a
Poor liouiSein Beaver county, and the
keeping and employment of the poor
therein, in the 3d section, confers on the
Directors of the Poor all the powers of
the Overseers of the Poor, not otherwise
granted or supplied by this. act. The
paupers are, therefore, subjected to the
,
same: authority on part of the Directors
in regard to employment as bad been
vested in the overseer*. They must work
acrordingto - their ability, or forfeit their
title to relief during their contumacy.—
Besides these prey isions. the Bth section
of the act of 1851 is directly to the pur
pose. It provides that the Directors, or
a quorum, shall have fall power to make
and ordain such oedinance*, rates and
regulation., as they shall think proper,
convenient.and necessary for the direc
tion, government and bU pport of the poor,
and the house of employment, and of the
avenues thorounto belonging, and of all
such persons as shall come under their
recognisance, hot repugnant to law, pro
vided they shall be first submitted to the
Court of Cornmeal Pleas for approval.—
liere is ample authority to make rules
of government and to compel the inmates
to conform to them. The Directors ought
to..proeure the best systems of rules in I
use in other places, and with the aid of
their (-counsel to adopt those necessary
and proper for this institution, adding
any new ones that their experience and
ei rcumftances may suggest. After the
approval of the Court they should print,
bilarge typo, those that concern the in
mates and frame and hang them up in
conspicuous places. Full copies far their
own use could also be-printed, with a su
pernumerary supply Of future de
mands.
I am glad to say: that the Institution ap

takes time to comprehend the interests or

IViihout any disparagement of his merits
I must confess my belief that the matron,
Mrs. Shroads, is a superior woman bir the
place (In her fall cuietly the internal

Added to ,this the care of the unfor
tunates of the estatilishment, the idiots
and the hod-ridden frill on her. I was
particularly struck with thisclass. They
seem to be well cared for. The county
has been fortunate in its selection, and the
only wonder is that both Steward and
Matron will consent to stay for the pit
twice they receive. The Matron, who
speaks German as well as Englisii,is worth

being willing to take the position for less.,
Of course the more ignorant and untitled

and responsibilities of the position and of
the value of the serVices Of thoee that can

CLIANOE.—Last October, Hearth and
Horne passedinto the hands of Messrs.
Orange Judd dr Co., of 245 Broadway,
.New York, the well known publishers
of the American .Agrieulturist—a Jour
nationg without a rival in sterling value
and circulation. The marklisi improve-
Meats then expected to appear in Hearth
and Home have been fully realized, and
it is now one of the choicest illustrated
Journals anywhere issued for the family
eircle---adapted to both the juvenile and
adult people, and 'Electing the special
wants of the housekeeper. Besides it
supplies very useful chapters for the
garden and farm, and an important news
sheet, giving a valunble reaurne of the
news for a week, up to the moment of
issue. From $5OO to POO worth of very
tine engravings beautify each weekly
number. We notice now a still further
mark of enterprise on the part of the
publishers; they have secured the ex

by his writings in Seribner'a Monthly,
and manyother Magazines and Journals,

Mr. liorrnu.—ln your lust issue, your
correspondent, referred to "told men and
old age." The question hail been asked
"Can a sinner eighty years old be saved?''
The probability of con version diminishes
-rapidly as every year rolls on. The ma
jority of con Versions ocenrnnder twenty
- yews of ago; few and fewer from fifty
years and upwards. Thia 'furnishes en
anutz*g demoustratitut of the ft!lly and
er of delay. "Forty years ago,"
said an aged father, was greatly an.x
lous about my soul. Many were thee
converted; but I was not one of them..
And now for years •I have not had a sin

Be was "jollied to his idols;" God let

An old luau =on to a clergyman in
New York wiLlithis,interrogation: "Sir,
can a sinner eighty years old be for

inquiry wept touch =while he spoke, and
on the minister enquiring into his his
tory; gave this - acconnt of himself : "Sir,
when 1 WllB twenty-Imo, I was awakened
to know that I Was:'a sinner, but I got
with some young men who tried to per
suade me to give itiup. After a while I
resolved I would put it off for ten years.
I did. At the end of that time, my
piotnlme came to my mind, but I felt no
great concern, and I resolved to put it
off ten years more, I did ; and since
then the resolution has become weaker
and weaker, and 110Nii lam lust!" After
talking to him kindly, the minister
prayed with him, hut he said: "It will
do no good, I have sinned away my day
of grace ;" and in this state he 800/I after
died.
"'Behold, now is the acceptPil

I list* tinte.—We clip the following 110-
'Lice of this Institution from the editorial
jottings of the Pittsburgh e;a:ette:
Among the important features in Bea
ver and enjoying more than local fame,
is the Beaver Seminary and Musical In
stitute, for many years under the Presi
dency of Rev R. T. Taylor, D. 1). The
buildings are large and airy, and stand
in a beautiful campus -of several acres,
laid out in tasteful style. The spacious
grounds make the College building un
usually attractive for the outlook in
every direction, and it is easy to imag
ine the health giving properties of such
an intititution for pupils. The large
number of students, who have graduated
at this institution show how careful has
been the scholastic training of the insti
tution, under the personal supervision
of -PreAdent - Taylor and his wife. It
being aeeessil,le from every point by
rail, convpient to Pittsburgh, healthy
and pleasantly located, with care for
morals and manners, as well as educa
tional and musical advantages, it is just
the place to send youug folks to improve
mind and body,
Mn. EDITott :—The report of the Sec
retary of the Beaver county Ministerial
Association informs us that there are
ministers in that body who advocate
moderate drinking as a privilege or duty
or both. It seems to the that it is duo to
the ministers of Heaver county who , are
not members - of this organization that
the secretary make a full report of the
discussion referred to, together with the
names of each ministers as take this
ground. It is also proper that. christian
temperance men should understand who
those ministers are that they may, labor
for reforthation among the clergy before
they go ftirth to the dramshops.
Yours, It. T. TAYLOR. !

Lectures.—A meeting of those Inter

day) evening, at 8 o'clock.
PATHO LOOT. In a person whose
groWth Is stationary the quantity of food
passing into the body in a given timo is
exactly equivalent to the quantity of
matter passing away in the various ex
cretions.
The whole of the food is dissolved .in
the body, and the great portions is ab
sorbed into the blood to renew the tis
sues, the nourishment of the body being
dependent upon this quality of the blood.
. A rich blood favors nutrition and
growth whilst a diseased quality of
blood depresses and destroys . truit which
is already formed.
Whilst the - blood thus gives out to each
organ or part of the body the means of
repairing itself, by furnishing it with
material of growth, it at the same time
washes away o as it were, whatever ele
ments of their tissues that have become
diseased, worn out, or useless.
These are passed off in the excretions,
and in healthy. d nits exactly correspond
in the amount with the quantity of usxl
taken.
When' the body becomes diseasod the
urinary excretions gives outthese dis
eased particles in the excess while the
decline of the body is going on.
