to himself hath said, " Itoi7l a paper take," both for my
own and my children's sake! If such there be let him re
pent, and have TUE GLOM to him sent; and if he'd pass a
happy winter, he in advance should pay the printer.
COLORED EmiquzscE.—" My Eradders," said a waggish
colored man to a crowd, "in all affliction, in all your tron
hies, dar is one ,place you can always find sympathy.".=
" Whar l when!" shouted several. "In de dictionaly," he
replied rolling his eyes skyward.

the departure of his " better-half":
"My wife has left, with bed and board,
For a few days, a few days ; • •
•
She left it of her own accord,
When I was out from home. •
I caution all to this amount,
Now-a-days, now , a-days;
Don't trust her now on my account,
For she's never coming home."
Ftzzir:D.OnT.—The Derearara "Royal Gazette," of the
10th ultimo ; says: John Soyers Orr, better known by his
cognomen of "the Angel Gabriel," is no more. lie died
of dysentery in November, at the penal settlement, where
he was undergoing his sentence of imprisonment with hard
labor. We now ekpect to hear of "Gabe Jr." resolving to
wear crape thirty days in honor of his very "illustrious
predecessor I"

tarBLUZiT, BUT TO THE Punrosz.—The following notice
is posted conspicuously in a publication office , down east:'
"Shut this door, and soon as you have done talking on bu
siness serve your mouth the same way."
IM,It is a singular fact that the duel and sWo aro un
known among the Turks. They believe in preMstination,
and are rigidly opposed to the idea of hastening death by
arsenic or gunpowder.
WANTEn--950 more subscribers to The Globe. Walk in
without knocking—order your name upon our list—pay
$1 50 in advance, and then depart in peace.
CoNzEstyriaLE—The practice of chewing tobacco in a
house of divine worship. It is a most disgusting practice,
and the individual who follows it is more of a hog than a
man—more of a pagan than a christian. It is a common
thing to see in some of our Uhnrche's streams of tobacco
juice sufficiently large to swim a* thimble. It is to be
hoped, for the sake of decency, if nothing else, that this
filthy practice will be entirely abandoned.
P. 5.,--Ladies I mark the man who chews tobacco during
divine service—he is not a worthy companion.
The now Methodist Church in this borough is rap
idly approaching to completion. Tho interior of the build
ing Is now undergoing fresco painting, and will be the
handsomest in town. The pastor of this congregation,
Bev. D. Sheaff, deserves much credit for the untiring zeal
and energy with which he has pushed forward this work,
notwithstanding the adverse circumstances under which
ho has labored. It will be dedicated on Sunday the first of
February next.
%MAR OLD LADY.—A Lady recently died in Mexico aged
139 years. It is so mid, but if you don't believe it, no dif
ference.
tla..rl. St. Louis paper says that the grass-hoppers bare
eat up the entire tobacco crop of Franklin county, and the
last that was heard from them they were seated on the cor
ners of the fence begging every man that passed for a chew.

enterprising but ignorant South American has
sent to an Albany locomotive shop for one hundred "cow
catchers." He expects to use them in taking wild cattle
OR the plains of Paraguay, in place of the lasso.
.tarikt a re-union of Pennsylvanians in New Orleans,
Miss Matilda Heron, the tragedienne, was present and
gave the following sentiment:
• The Keystone State—where I was reared, my second
home, where I learned the Lord's Prayer, and the alphabet
of the language that I speak; call me its child, and I am
happy-
Ix Tows—The young man with his hair put up in the
"Polka Style". Better take care, or Hurray will put you
in his Book.
SOCIAL PARTY.-A social party comes off at the Water
Street hotel to-morrow a ;ening. The managers who have
it in charge are a sufficient guaranty that it will be con
ducted with the utmost order and decorum. Much pleas
ure may be anticipated.
vzs_lie (Lewis) sent his postage bill to us the other day,
which we considered exorbitant, and refused paying until
he gave the items. This he could not do; and to vent his
spite stuck up a bill in his office to the effect that our ac
count was ler sale, &4.—Hunt. Journal.
- Brewster's postage bill amounts to 66 cents, which ho
refused to pay unless we would "give the items"—that is
to say, a regular bill for a paper to day, or a book or some
thing else to-morrow, and so on. Such accounts are never
kept in a Post Office, and this fact the scoundrel knows.—
We, ary willing to be qualified to the aggregate amount of
Brewster's bill, which ho refuses to pay, and which we
have "stuck up for sale," and which, unless sold at private
sale, will be offered at public auction in the streets of Hun
tingdon, during the present week! Thus, every act of Bill
Brewster's is pregnant with meanness and dishonesty, and
the public must hereafter excuse us for taking no further
notice of him, or the "poor witty-cur,"-of whom be is ma
king a consummate dupe and fool. They have piled up
lie upon lie—no assertion, however extravagant, they have
not hesitated to make-and in private, boast of their mean
ness and rascality. They stand before this community ,
branded, by common consent, as liars andscoundrels, mor
al perjurers, and poor, weak, and imbecile whelps, whom
it would be a pity to spit upon or to kick I -
AS. A Grand Cotillion Party will come off at the Broad
Top City Hotel, on the 22d of February- - The cars will
then run within a half mile of the City, and we learn that
Excursion Tickets will be issued for the occasion. It is
intended to make this "the Party" of the Season, and wo
doubt not it will far surpass anything of the kind ever-be
fore seen in these parts. Prepare for a pleasure excursion

Mr. John G. Gilbert, in the room formerly occupied by M.
