FOR THE JEFFERSONIAN.
"THE AGE WE LIVE IN."
Me. Editor: Sir. With your
permission I shall criticise every Essay
aB it appears in your paper. What I find
worth commending I shall commend and
what I cannot commend I shall honestly
condemn. I hope my criticisms will be
kindly received, and that they may be of
mutual benefit to every person ooncerned
I am a lover of good Saxon and of pure
literature, aud when I read a communi
cation from one of the Literati and find
it full of had grammar, insipid sentences
and flat contradictions, I feel that I am
untrue to the cause of education if I do
not point out its faults.
'Pin. Acrft wn lire in." nublishcd in the
Jrfcisonian of last week, is full of incon
A mS I I
gruities, and to criticise it closely would
require columns of fpace, and to make it
worth reading at all it would be neoossa
ry to remodel it throughout. The au
thor's first sentence is as fiat and devoid
of elegance as it could well be and con
vey any sense at all. He says, "The
ago we live in Is the most romarkablo one
the world has over seen." Now who can
find any beauty or very forceable truth in
thatT Every little schoolboy knows wo
live in a tcondcrful Ago, and why should
ho bo told, by one who presumes to teach,
that it irt nnlv a "romarkablo acoT" If
u va v t J O
tho author had thrown away half bia
words and said, we live in a wonderful Agc
ho would have been much more explicit
and much more correct. A good writer
never uses any superfluous word.; and if
the Essay under consideration, had been
condensed into one column of pure Eng
lish, instead of nearly four of tautology, it
would have saved the type-setter much
tiuio as well as tho reader and conveyed
its share of common 6enso,
But we will pass on, skipping minor
blunders, such aB "intense energy" in
stead of extreme energy, and quote this,
"It is a time when tho wits of men are
honed down to the last degree of razor
like sharpness, by constant rubbing and
jostling together in competion, and when
keen necessity, than whom (!) there cau
be no moro vigorous incentive, trains and
develops every faculty to its utmost ex
tent." There! if that is not a specimen
of the classics then I never saw one I
mean the classics of Tautology. What a
beautiful figure of sharpening a razor, by
"jostling" it up and down, say in a basket
ot nails! Wnat harmony of parts! loo
w
much ngure, wo pass on to mat nigniy
grammatical use of the relative "whom,"
in the same sentence. A boy who has
studdied grammar four weeks ought to
know that whom is only used in speaking
of persons and of things personated.
The antecedent of this author's whom is
"necessity;" a strange thing to personate
indeed! He takes the most round-a-bout
way to express his ideas and uses tho ve
ry worst words, and concludes every sen
tence with the literal exhibition of what
be says of mankind in general of "floun
dering in the mud at the bottom of the
hill." He has the cows feeding on flow
ers and man living on gold only. Instead
of finding the birds warbling he finds
them "warble." He dwells on the "sil
very moonbeams, tho milky way, the
Comet's tail" and "The New York Led
ger," oh, how felicitously! He talks all
the time of one person and he is a farmer
and a fool, a miser and a merchant, a
good citizen and a cut-throat, and alway
devoted to "the sublime precepts of the
Multiplication table 1 1"
We think his "view" of things is
very "superficial" indeed. "The kite
seized the dovo" &o.; why did he not
use signs of a quotation? Stick a pin in
plagiarism there. But if be had given us
more plagiarism be would also have given
ub moro sense. "He ruled who was the
strongest and wrongs were righted and
rights wroaged." Hero seems to he a
balance of aocoants. Perhaps our au
thor could cnligbton our Administration
in their present dilemma. Oar Treasury
needs balancing desperately and Secreta
ry Cobb needs assistance. But the ques
tion is, can a right be wronged!
He says, "the pickpocket, thegaroto,"
another new word "tho swell mob, the
drop came, are among the refinements
and luxuries of the generation." Now is
not this a flattering view of the age we
live in! This he gives as the character of
the whole people, and in the very next
sentence he speaks of "a great and glori
ous nation, one vast brotherhood, compos
ed of concordant spirits dwelling together
in harmony!" Who ever read such in
consistent clap-trap! It is well our his
torians were not authors of such stamp.
No wonder ho finds literature in such
poor demand his literature. Good au
thors never found better market for their
productions than now, and whoever can
write anything that is really good has
no difficulty in finding a good price for it.
We cannot stop to give examples, but our
author thinks it would pay better to be
author of a patent moose-trap than of an
epie poem. Perhaps his poems would not
bj?jpod capital as a patent mouse-trap,
andlwfrihipk too he would do better with
the trap than he could with his essays.
-lf Homer, Yirgil or Will. Shakspere"
what familiarity! "lived in these days,
they would have been inevitably obliged
to give up. the cultivation of tho muse,
and go to raising cabbages and turnips!"
Now who belioyea .any suoh doctrine as
that? and besides the nominatives, "Ho
mer, Virgil or Will. Shakspcre" are con
nected by a disjunctive conjunction and
yet he follows them with the plural pro
noun "they." What sort of grammar is
this! I would inform the gentleman that
singular nouns connected by disjunctive
conjunctions must always have pronouns
and verbs agreeing with thera of the sin
gular number.
Finally hear this, "What the present
aero is most in need of, is not men of gen-
Jnns. (Tennises are eenerallv good for
J 0 Q -
nothing." He has just been talking a
bout the useful inventions, and now the
men who accomplished this useful work
are "good for nothing." In speaking of
the literature of tho age, according to his
judgment, geniuses should bo better en
courafed. What a jumble of inconsist
cnciesl Ho says in conclusion and it i;
newest the truth of anything wo have
eocli in his Essay that "there is much
remains to be said, and that too by abler
pens than ours." J ust before this ho says
we have now but merely glanced at tho
various trains of thought suggested by this
subject." If ho had only got aboard o
one of those trains and left for spmo parts
unknown, without giving such an Essay
to "all the world and tho reB't of man
kind," he would have fulfilled his mission
nobly.

Legislative,
Mr. Brodhead, read in his place and
presented to the Chair, "An Act declar
inp: McMichael s creek, in Monroe coun
ty, a public highway, and to prevent the
destruction of dsn.
Also, "An Act authorizing the appoint
raent of an auctioneer for the borough o
Stroudsburg, Monroe County."
Mr. Goepp, "A supplement to an ac
incorporating the Saucon Iron company.'
Also, "A supplement to the act ap
proved 20th April, 1654, in relation to
establishing and changing the places to
holding general elections throughout thi
Commonwealth."
Judge Bell, of Chester county, iotro
duced two important bills. One was a
bill interpreting the Appropriation Act
of 1857 (which reduced the State tax
from three to two and a half mills; so
that the reduction shall apply to tho
City, County and other loans; and its in
troduction was necessary, because th
Auditor General omits theso loans in th
reduction of the tax, and the Attornej
General gives a different interpretation o
the law. Mr. Boll s other bill was to a
mend the existing law relating to evi
dence. It removes the disabiliy of a
witness, by reason of having been convic
ted of felony; provides that no person
shall be excluded from testifying by any
interest he may have in the event of th
suit; that a party to tho record may b
examined as if under cross examination
at tho instance of the adverse party, and
other important alterations in the exist
dz rules of evidence.
Army Statistics.
Tho Army Register for 1850 has jus
made its appearance. Wo find that ou
present force of regular soldiers consi
of nineteen regiments, all told, as follows
Ten regiments of infantry, averaging ten
companies of soventy men each; one
mounted riflemen, two of cavalry, and two
of dragoons, each of the latter number
ing ten companies of about sixty men.
It would bo difficult to arrive at a cor
rect estimate of the actual fighting mate
rial at the disposal of the War Depart
ment, but we presume tho entire strength
of our army is little over or under 16,000.
The Register shows the grand aggregate
of tho militia, ail told, to be 2,724,420.
Murder in Carbon Co.
A shooking tragedy was perpetrated in
our neighboring county of Garbcn, ou
Tuesday evening of last weok, near the
public house of Mr. Stomler, in Stemlers
ville, by which a man named Solomon
Wilhelm, was so seriously wounded that
he died from the effects a few hours there
after. Tho circumstances under wbiob
the deed was committed are as follows :
It appears that Wilhelm, in company
with some friends, went to a shooting
match that came off during tho day in
the vicinity of the place named, where
everything passed off peaceably and the
best of feeling prevailed; but on their way
home after dark, a dispute aroso between
Wilhelm and ono of his friends, named
Eckert, when the latter in a violent pas
sion, struck Wilhelm across the forehead
with bis rifle felling him to the earth,
splitting open his bead so that a finger
could be inserted into the skull, and com
pletely severing his nose from his face.
It is said that after the occurrence, Eck
ert went back to the tavern, for a light,
saying that be "had given it to a follow,
and that if ho hadn't enough he would
give him sufficient' Tho murderer was
immediately arrested and committed to
prison at Mauch Chunk for trial. Wil
helm survived his injuries until 10 o'clook
next day, when ho expired.

Atrocious Viilain.
On Monday nieht, Jan. 31, some des

daughter Ellen, un excellent young lady
of some nineteen years of age, and an
otherlady, were sleeping in separate beds,
to both of whom ho administered cbloro-
brm. He then inado several cuts with
some sharp instrument upon the forehead
of Miss Ellen, extending from tho roots
of the hair to the eyebrows, and also upon
her chin. From theso wounds the blood
flowed freelv, but they were not serious.
He also made a gash of some three inch
es in length upon her breast, and proba
bly comniittod other outrages. Un re
tiring sbo took the rings from her fingers,
and placed them upon the table near her
bed; these were found upon the floor, bro

taken from the room in which she slept,
and from the room adioining. Even her

The Tolly of going to Law.
The Easton Argus of last week says
"The folly of going to law was beautiful
ly exemplified in our Common rlca
Court last week, in the trial wherein Dan
icl Sehortz figured as plaiutiff and Wm
Rfnnlrpr as dnfendant. Ihe action was
brought to recover the value of 12 bush
els of screenings, which the plaiutiff hold
the defendant wrongfully withheld from
him. Stocker lived on Schortz's farm
and was farming "on shares," bound in a
lease to give his landlord half the grain
&c., which it was alleged be did not
inasmuch as ho did not hand over th
screenings. The entire value of th
screenings was about $7,50, and nearly
two entire days were consumed in the tri
al of the ease. Two attorneys were eu
gaged on each side, whose fees did not a
mount to less than 50, and the witness
fees aud court increased this sum to a
least 8100, to say nothing of the tim
consumed by the parties to tho suit. Th
Jury, after a patient bearing of the case
decided that screenings did cot come un
der the head of grain, and accordingly
returned a verdict for the defendant.
How much better Daniel would have bee
off, had he permitted his tenant to retain
his screenings and ret coutent. A man
O
had always better submit to trifles, eve
if he imagines himself wronged than to
a ,,
go to law.

Congressional Seats.
The chair of each member in the new
Representative Hall at Washington, fin
ished last winter, cost tho moderate sum
of ninety dollars. The. carpeting of th
Hall, as well as tho other furniture, is
proportionately expensive. What a spec
tacle it would be to see these lellows ly
in" back in a niuety dollar chair, and
thrusting their congrosbional legs beueat
a scveuty dollar desk, and economically
voting to raiso the rate of letter postag
two cents to meet tho govcrnmhntal ex
penses.
A New Idea.-- Church Suppers.
One of tile churches in Columbus, Ohio
is supplied with quite rcspoctable parlors,
near its entrance, whero once a mouth or
oftener, the members of tho congregation
meet in tocial circle, have a good supper,
and enjoy each other's smiles to the ful
lest extent. A tax of a dime or a quar
ter from each attendaut provides for the
expense, and gives a large sum annually
for tho support of tho church. At colu,m
bus, in the church to which we refer, 8G00

A drovo of 6,000 gceao for the New
York market were put on the oars at
Winchester, Ohio, last week. The calcu
lation of tho owner was that the feathers
would pay him for his outlay in raising
them and getting them to market, and
that the proceeds for tho carcasses would
bo clear profit.
Mrs. Leo, an aged lady of Columbus,
Ohio, a few days since obtained a war
rant for tho arrest of a mulatto named
William Foily, on tho ground that he had
destroyed her happiness, by marrying her
daughter Mary Ann, a very pretty white
girl, making an oath to the affect that
the girl was eighteen years of age, when
she was but sixteen. The girl, however,
appears to bo satisfied with her doubtful
colorod husband, and is determined to
stick to him.

Oregon a State.

urday passed witnouc amenumeut, iue
Senate bill admitting Oregon as a State
of the Union (the thirty-third) by the
ollowing vote: Yeas 114. Nays 10d.
The Constitution of tue new State in
some of its particulars is alleged to be iu
direct contravention of tnatot the unuea
States a fact which led to determined
oppositiop to its admission at this time by
the bulk of tho liepublican members.
But as the mcasuro was made a party
question, and two uemocratio senators
were waiting the signal to take possession
of their seats, there was but little difficul
ty in forcing it through. .Attempts were
made by the Republicans to attach to the
bill a provision for the admission of Kan
sas upon an equal footing, providing for
a census of the inhabitant-, requiring A-
merican citizenship, &c, all of which were
over-ruled by the majority. It seems
that what applies in one case has no bear-
ing upon anotner, mere oemg ono ruie oi

A PROCLAMATION
TO THE LADIES,
Whereas, it appears that the days of right,
honor, and inlogrity are fsst fading awny,
and whereas, the unscrupulous and ignorant
are daily taking advantage of the profound
and learned. Bet it known therefore, to all,
whether Maids, Wives, or Widows, that Dr.
Checsman's Female Pills are alone the cer
tain panacea for the troubles incident to fe
male disorganization; they alone correcting
all painful menstruation, assuaging palpita
tions ofthe heart, disturbed sleep, pain in the
side, aud causing health and happiness to the
whole sex; more especially to the married
portion, as they are certain to bring on the
monthly period with regularity. And where
as, these Pills are purely vegetable and en
tirely free from minerals, therefore perfectly
harmless in their operations and wholly un
like other medicines thrust upon the public,
purporting to effect the objects already de
tailed. Therefore, be it known, that nothing
but the said Pills of Dr. Cheesman will ac
complish the desired object, when disappoint
ment has been experienced under the regime
oi' other Pills; and the Ladies will cause
this Proclamation to spread amongst them, to
their own everlasting benefit always premi
sing that said Proclamation in one case must
be considered null and void ; that is to say,
that tiie Pills must not be taken when any
female is in an interesting situation, other
wise a miscarriage will be the inevitable re
sult. Explicit directions, to be carefully read,
accompany each box. Price SI. Sent by

Dallcy's Magical Pain Extractor.
In all diseases inflammation more or-Ieos
predominates now to allay inflammation'
strkes at the root of disease hence an im
mediate cure.
Dalhys' Magical Pain Extractor,
and nothing else, will allay inflammation at
once, and make a certain cure.
Bailey s Magical Pain Extractor
will cure the following among a catalogue of
diseases; burns, scalds, cuts, chafes, sore nip
ples, corns, bunions, strains, biles, poison,
chilblains, biles, scrofula, ulcers, fever sores,
felons, ear ache, piles, sore eyes, gout, stvel
lnigs, rheumatism, scald head, salt rheuut,
baldness, erysipelas, ringworm, barbers itcb,
small pox, measles, rash, &c, &c.
To some it may seem incredulous that so
many discasesshould be reached by one arti
cle; such an idea will vanish when reflection
points to the fact, that the salvo is a combina
tion ot ingredients, each and every one ap
plying a perfect antidote to its opposite dis
order. Dalleifs Magical Pain Extractor
In its effects is magical, because the time is
so short between disease and a permanent
cure; and it is an extractor, as it draws all
disease out of the alfected part, leaving na
ture as perfect as before the injury. It 'is
scarcely necessary to say that no house. work
shop, or manufactury should be one moment
without it.
No Pain Extractor is genuiue unless the
box has upon it a steel plate engraving, with
the name of Henry Dalley, Manufactnrer,
