The'Old Man's Funeral.
I:=
I saw an aged man upon his biCr;
His hair was thin and white, and on' his brow
A record Of the cares of many p year;
Careithat were ended and forgotten now.
And there was sadness round, and laces bowed,
And women's tears fell fast, and children wailed
aloud.
Then rose another hoary man and said,
In flattecing accents to that weeping train,
"Why mourn ye that our aged friend is dead?
Ye are not sad to see the gathered grain;
Nor when their mellow fruit of the orchard cast,
For when their yellow woods shake down their ri
pened mast.
"Wht weep ye, then, for him who having won
The boind of man's appointed years, at last,
Life's blessings all enjoyed, fifes labor done.
Serenely ,to his final rest has passed ;
While the soft memory of virtues yet
Lingers, like twilight hues when the bright sun is
set.
youth. was innocent; his ripe age
Marked with some act of goodness every day ;
And watched - by eyes that loved him, calm and
sage,
Fadeithis late declining years away.
Cheerfil he gave his being up and went
To slifige the holy rest that waits a life well-spent.
"That life was happy. Every day ho gave.
Thanks for the fair existence that was his;
For a sick fancy made him out her slave,
To mock him with her phantom miseries.
No chronic tortures racked his aged limb,
For ltixury and cloth had nourished none for him
"And Lam glad that'he has lived thus long;
And glad that he has gone to his reward,
Nor can r deem that nature did him wrong
Softly to disengage the vital cord.
When his weak hard grow palsied, and his eye
Dark with the vail of age,it was time to die.
4 Border Outrage.
➢7 110BERT.31011RI8, S. T
In the early settlements made below Vicksburg,
Mass., there was a miserable want of la* and
morals. Might became right, and weak handed
justice stood but a poor chance to be lelt or even
heard.
Amongst. the ungodly reprobates that infested
the land, living by no hottest labor, and to 110 use
ful end, was one Eu g ene Damon, a gambler by
prcdessionra bully b y practice, the terror of the
more peaceable portion of the citizens. Damon
was a married man, and, what is strange, his wife
was as much of the rowdy as he was, travelling
with him in all his excursions, assisting hem in
time of need by counsel ;.and, unless common re.
port scandalized her, lending a strong hand occa
sionally, when a strong hand was needed. •
For several years this couple resided near a town
1 will call Wilder, a place now deserted, wrecked
in the banking hurricane of 18.37.
There they occupied a neat one story,„dwelliug
of their own, and when not absent up,on proles
sional excursions, there they kept open house to
all 'whose hand was against every man,' as theirs
was. •
This class of beings cannot be said, in the long
run, to enjoy much happiness. but they make up
the &privation by enjoying themselves very fast,
when they get at it. This accounted for the up.
roarions singing and shouting that invariably ac
companied their orgies at Damon's dwelling, and
for the terretted of their eyes, and the pokeberry
scarlet of 'their noses, observable on days subse
quent.
Nobody cver fought there, however, for the pro
prietor always commenced his- feasts with the.
avowal ` that he had a character to sustain,' and
made every one at his guests surrender knife and
pistol into his keeping until the end of the spree.
Thus, while every public meeting at Wilder pro
duced its fisticufling, shooting and stabbing, there
never w.ie a difficulty of the sort at Damon's, thus
corroborating Milton's Devils with the devils
damned hold concord; men only disagree!' 1 ques
tion whether Milton was ever more aptly quoted
in his life.
In the town ot Wilder, traded the substantial
firm of Fahnestock, Beverly & Co, produce and
commission merchants. 1 say the substantial firm;
for while all other houses smashed without. assets
of any sort, this establishment paid fifteen cents on
the dollar; and so remarkable was this event con
sidered at the time, that it was. proposed in New
York to present them with a service of plate.—
The house had just received a remittance of funds
on account of some shipments of cotton, to the
very handsome amount of thin thousand dollars.
It was duly locked up in the irqn sate in the count
ing room, and the partners retired to ,their homes,
confidentan its security as they were in their own
solvency. But when ;he store was unlocked next
morning, the sale, sad misnomer, was bound to be
wrenched open, the money drawer empty, and the
valuable paciet abstracted.
Vaih would be any attempt to describe the scene.
Fahnestock collared Beverly and demanded the
money. Beverly chased the Co. into the street, the
Co. screaming fire, murder and thieves, all in a
breath, to know who lett the store last. People
crowded in from all parts, to find grasping in
hie chair, B. cutting up the most extravagant pan
tomimes, and the Co. dissolved in uncontrolable
anguish. It was a pitiful sight, that affair was.—
The danger of a man's falling from grace never
excited halt so much distress in the hearts of the
actors as the loss of 'that money.
Amongst the lookers on, and by far the least
concerned of any, appeared Eugene Damon, who
examined the pick-lock with a sbrewd smile, and
vouchsafed it with hie opinion 'That it was a juicy
thing. language that certainly meant something.
although none of the bystanders understood what!
Great rewards were forthwith offered to induce the
thieve to be honest. The temptations held out
even went so far as to propose to give five hundred
dollars, gnd no questions asked, if the money were
returned. But as this involved the clear loss ot
three thousand five hundred cash already in hand,
honesty remained at a discount, and the purloiners
generously permitted the sufferers to ask as many
questions as they pleased. Fahnestock, Beverly &
Co., never beard of their money afterwards!
The ambiguous language used by Damon
had excited various suspicions which his free man-
ner of living, and the flushness of his money mar
ket_ shortly afterwards added considerable weight.
4 ' So shrewd an individual could not but see, inihe
sideway glance and muttered remarks elicited' by
his passing down the street, each day, that some
thing was. brewing; but like a man who has smelt
rattlesnakes before he only hehrhis head the higher
and walked by. His wife, to whoma he imparted
these suspicions, counseled him to prepare his wea
pons but laughing
at her fears, he continued his
dai walks, with no other defence than the usual
tooldof a gambler, viz., a bowie and two brace of
double barrel.
•He had speedy cause to regret his carelessness
however, for while drinking at the C o ff e e House,
one evening about dusk he was suddenly seized
from behind, blindfolded, gogged and conveyed to
a skiff in. the river, in which he was hurriedly row
ed across to the opposite side before he could form
the shadow of an idea what fate was contemplated
for him.
Carrying him up the bank, his captor; four in
all, led him half a mile back througn the den, tied
him to a holly tree, and opened the object of their
lawless act.
' One of them, easily recognized by his voice to
be Dr. Veneer, in spite' of his mask, told him that
he must tell them what he had done with the mo.
ney, or they would whip him to death.
This short but comprehensive decimation was
followed Up ny a dtsplay of their wmps, tour hor
rid instruments, triply-thonged, and'strung enough
to wear welts into the hipe of an alligator.
But the gambler had been schooled in a profes
sion from which fear is banished. His trade had
led him too often within.the cracking shot of pis
tols and the cut of steel, and his reply was thun
dered out bold as Auvergnes.
'Whip away, and bed—di but it you don't
kill me, ['II kill ell four of you.
It is not my•purpose tc detail the horrid scene;
the trial of endurance on one part, of brute strength
on ffie other; suffice that the hardened ruffian was
more than a match for the whOle of them, and that
although their thick whips were clotted with blood,
and their arms weary with the exercise, his indom
itable spirit defied them to the last. As he rell into
a taint, they sat down; those four apprentice lynth
ers, to counsel with each other.
It was past midnight. The sultry air or the river
bottoms, occasionally heated by one of those breathe
that so inexplicably meet the traveler in a summer
night, gave evidence of a coming storm. The bite
of the mosquitoes that choked the very air in clouds
were aistreseing beyond all endurance, and as the
ball-naked body of their prisoner hung backward
in its faintness, the stripes of bloody skin, torn loose
by their whip lashes,
were quite hidden by their
black, eager torms. What should they do? The
suggestion of Dr. Veneer cannot be entertained for
a moment; the reader may readily guess what it
was. Finally, it was decided that Damon should
remain-hanging there till morning. and the party
would then return.
To remain their amongst the mosquitoes! Far
more kind to have adopted the shorter plan of the
Doctor's, and let the black mould of the canebrake
cover its dead. But thunder clouds were banking
up on every aide, and the regulators hurried to the
fn get across in time, barely in time, to es
cape the storm." -
Amidst the crushing of the trees and the howl
ing of the blasts, the unpitied gambler returned to
his senses. It had been the sleep of death, but for
those very stings that aroused the life within him
to resist.. their horrid attacks. The dash of cold
rain upon his exposed wounds was grateful t t the
tever that scorched his very vitals, and still better,
it drove away the mosquitoes. The lynchers were
gone, that was sufficient evidence, he had not been
whipped to death, as they threatened; and now,could
he but deal away These cords, vengeance was with
in his reach. 0, how that hope strengthened his
sinews to, strain, and hardened his very teeth to
,gnaw at th,e very strong fibres that bound him.—
What a hOrid laugh issued from his lungs, as the
first band gave way. With what an exultit.g bound
he sprang from the holly tree, whose virgin bark
was now 'first stained by human blood, and with
his right hand extended towards the Thunderer's
throne, vowed deathto the. four, or,death to himself!
But little he heeded now to the torn skin or gash•
ed:flesh',y pop hisback, dashed the canes aside,and
at a run reached •the bank. A hall mile up stream
brought hiin to a farm-house and wood-yard, where
a small skiff, without oars, was fastened to the
bank by a chain and lock. Tearing off the fasten
ings, regardless of oars, he pushed ofl; and by the
aid of a basin that lay in the bottom of the skiff;
propelled the boat across, but at a point some miles
below the town.
By noon the next day he was lying, all unknown
to any one except his wife; at his own house in a
state of high delirium. This continued :or more
tnan a mouth, during which time the strung mind
ed woman hung over his bed by day and night, led
upon hopes of delicious revenge, nor suffered a liv•
ing soul to know that her husband was there. A
strong constitution carried the gambler through,
and he was pronounced by his faithful nurse to be
out of danger.
Then the twain sat for long hours,for hours that
ran tar into the night of morning, and devised their
projects 01 revenge. There was no difference of
sentiment between them !as to the amount of the
provocation, none as:the extent to which their ven
geance should go. Death, death was the horrid
sum total; but the details, these required considera-
Lion, and who of the doomed four should lead the
way in the, procession of ghosts? And should they
all die in the same manner? And in what man•
tier should death be meied out to them'? And *ben
should 'the tower of Siloam' tall?
So carefully had the heroine preserved the secret
of her husband's return that her nearest neighbors
did not suspect it. The tour lynchers discovered
that Darnon had treed himself, but finding no evi
dence that he had ever made his escape from the
cane-brake, they agreed that he must have died
there, so they concealed the guilty mystery of his
disappearance in their breasts.
Mrs. Damon caused an advertisement to be in.
sorted in the town journal, offering a large reward
for the discovery of her husbaicd's body, supposed
to have been drowned about the night of July —.
This step added to their assurance, and in a Yew
weeks they .began to breathe freely again.
But the avenger was in their path. A State's
warrant was sworn out against the four for assault
and battery on the person of Eugene Damon. Con-
frontedwith their accuser in the magistrate's court,
tha.y were identified by his plain, direct testimony,
as well as by various circumstantial evidences, and
pur under the heaviest bail bonds to appear beiore
the next Circuit Court.
But the bar before which they were to' stand,
and the Judge with whom they were to be con
!routed, were of a tar higher character than those.
For, as they sat in the presence of their friends,
two of them having their wives and children pres
ent, as they sat depressed in mind by the turn the
affair was taking, Damon walked deliberately up
to them. drew two double barreled pistols from his
pockets, and with right and lett hands, for he was
ambidextrous, shot the four through the heart be
fore a gesture or even a word could be interposed!
Vengeance was never tnore sudden of complete.
The lour young men, all in the prime of life, the
crowd of horror-stricken friends, the fury of the
citizens, the dismay of the officers. must be con-
ceived rather than described. Demon was borne
to jail, placed in due time upon trial, and acquitted
on the score of justification!
A WINTER or DISASTER—War on the Danube
—cholera in England—conflagrations at home—
wrecks on the sea—have given to the present win
ter a pre-eminence among disastrous seasons. We
cannot remember a period so crowded with catas
trophe as the two last months. A brutal power
has brought the horrors of a hopeless war upon an
inoffensive nation—a war from which every prin
ciple of chivalry and every sentiment of magnan
imity are excluded. In one hour, a fleet was de
stroyed, five thousand men were murdered, and a
to - was annihilated; and Europe, like a coward,
stoc—by - ind saw it s done—saw the Tom Hyer of
Russia going to crush the feeble little boy of Con
stantinople—and did not hold the runtime' back.—

On the ocean the disasters have not only been
numerous, but of a singularly terrible character.
Ships crowded with men, women and children,
have gone down with their living freight. Let no
one nttrbute these calamities to the will of a
wrathlul Providence. Providence is beneficent al
ways. To the carelessness, or the folly or the crime
of man, the blame of nearly every item in this
catalogue.of ruin belongs. This perhaps cduld be
proved' and the blame brought home to the door
of each guilty individual, and the rest of mankind
warned, if in addition to our death coroner, we had
a fire coroner, a wreck-coroner, a pestilenee-coro

"TUT COUNTRY 18 TRB MOST PROSPERUUS, WHERE LIBOR COMMANDS THS GUAM BEWARD."—Buchanan.
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 28, 1854.
A PIGEON Roos - r—A sportsman has given to
the Zanesville Aurora the lollowing description of
an immense pigeon roost near Kirkersville, on the
National Road, west of Zanesville :
The pigeons;in countless number.,from all points
of the compass, eome in clouds, mostly between
sunset and dark, and settle down upon the bushes,
as many as can get foothold, and very often until
they are bent to the surface:or broken. Tnis break
ing and snapping of limbs and trees keeps up a
'constant commotion during the night; the pigeons
rising with a noise like thunder, and settling again
adjacent, to repeat the same process. In the morn
ing, early, they depart as they came ' for the exten
sive beech forests in the neighborhood, and fre
quently extend their visits to a long distance
around the adi fining country. The noise during the
night can be heard distinctly tor the distance of
several miles, resembling the roar of deen distant
thunder, or that produced by the rapid rolling of a
train of cars over a railroad, when running on ex
press time. The surface occupied at one time by
the pigeons is difficult to estimate, perhaps not ex
ceeding eight or ten acres, although they change
their location, at short periods, from one point to
another, and have thus had their rocarrail over the
swamp.

Second, as to the relatives of the applicant, who may be
willing, or bound by law, to relieve him. Third, as to his
real inability to Support himself) from physical infirmity or
other causes, which entitle him to the charities of the in

a little attention to these requisites would often save such
