EXECUTION Or NIXON.---New York
Meg 10.—Nixon,_ the Murderer of Chas.
H. Phifer, was banged this morning.—
The doomed man after taking a farewell
of his family and friends last evening ; ate
harty supper and remarked to his keep
er : "This is zny last night on earth, and
I have done what I never did before,
take two cups of.coifee. He then prayed
with Father Duranguet, the prison chap
lain, and fell asleep at twelve o'clock A.
M. and having dressed, attended mass
read by Father Duranguet, and received
the_sacrament_aecording to the Roman
Catholic Church. The only words after
were. "My Saviour was crucified—this is
nothing."
Nixon's wife called early Thursday
evening to take a last farewell. Nixon
at first talked with her in a business-like
manner, sought to stem the tide of grief
that filled her to overflowing, and to con
sole her by his own. eheerfullness and
complete resignation. He pictured to her
his previous life, the many troubles he
had caused her, the bad husband he had
been, and tried to convince her that she
would, as he expreased it, "be better off
without'him." He told her of his perfect
resignation• to his fate, saying. he was rea
dy and willing to die, as he did not be
lieve he would ever again, if he got out to
the world, be so well prepared to meet his
Maker. He then advised her as to her
future conduct, and gave the sorrowstrick
en woman directions how she should bring
up their three children. To the evil as
sociatious of his youth he attributed his
disgraceful doom. He hoped his chil.
drew would lie brought up in a different
and better way and then he had no fear
for their after life. They talked in this
manner for nearly two hours, and then
the time for the final farewell came.—
Nixon then, fur the first time during the
interview, was overpowered. But quick
ly rallied, and resumed his cheerful and
resigned manner. The unfortunate man,
however, as his wife tottered through the
corrider, could not suppress the sigh that
comes from remorse. Mrs. Nixon kept
up her physical courage until she got to
the Warden's Office, and then she faint
ed away. Restoratives were applied, and
after sonic time she summoned up suffici
ent courage to walk home. The time of
the final parting was 9 o'clock.

A FAST YOUNG MAN.—A young man
died recently in this city, whose case might
well serve us a warning to others, His
conduct for years was so exemplary as to
secure for him the esteem and friendship
of a large circle of friends, but in an un
fortunate hour fur him, a relative died,
leaving'him a.fortune of twelve thousand
dollars. From tlust moment he was a
ruintd man. He lost his; relish for hon
est industry, fell into bad ccmpany, con
tracted evil habits, and after squandering
his substance iu riotous living, except a
few hundred dollars, ho 'nought himself
to - the grave in less than eight moriihs
from the time he fell heir to the fcirtnue.

The thieves—for it appears there was more
than one—left only the mattress behind.
Mr. F. informs us that he cannot replace

party, bat we trust they may yet be bro't

SLAVING FOR MONNL—We pity the
man (says an exchange) 'who wears out
hie energies in the accumulation of riches,
which, when amassed, he will have lost
the capacity to enjoy. He finds himself
at the end of his labor, a guest at his own
feast, without an appetite for its dainties.
The wine of his life is wasted,' and noth
ing remains but the lees. The warm sym
pathies of his heart have been choked by
the inexorable spirit of avarice, and they
cannot be resucitated. The fountain head
of his enthusiasm IS sealed; he looks at
all things in nature and in art with the
eye of calculation ; hard matter.of fact is
the only pabulum his mind can feed on;
the elastic spring of impulse—the poetry
of existence is gone. The only rational
way to live is to mix labor with enjoy.
ment—a streak of fat and a streak of
lean. There is nothing like a streaky life—
a pleasant mixture of thankfulness, love,
jallity, and repose. The man who slaves
for riches makes a poor return to that
God who took the trouble of making him
for a better fate. .
SAD ACCIDENT.—We gather the par
ticulars of the sudden death of Frank W.
Gordon, son of Major D. S. Gordon, from
the Leavenworth Daily Times of the 7th
inst. It appears the Major and his fami
ly were on a visit to their friends at Leav
enworth. On the evening of the 6th inst.
the lad in company with several other
children while playing on the turn-table
of the Chicago, and IL I. Railroad, became
fastened in the table, and received injuries
from which he died the same evening at
8 o'clock. Master Frank was a bright
boy, and the accident says the Times caus
ed a deep feeling of sorrow throughout
the neighborhood. Several weeks since
the Maj. was on a visit to his friends in
this region who will receive the intelli
gence of his sore and sudden affliction with
feelings of sorrow and: regret.
The deceased was aged about 11 years.
NEW TOWN COUNCIL ORGANIZED.-

For the Village Record.
Oh ! What People.
It is strange, yet it may often be favor
ably accounted for, that men run wrong
on so many subjects and entertain the vain
hope of always having the right view of
things. Such men become somewhat so
phistical and not unfrequently will admit
of an error in order that they may lead
men the more blindly on .some other sub
jects to gain unwise ends. Human forms
of this Mature and character may be found
in every community and in every class of
men. Their looks may be altogether fa
vorable, if not in all places, yet in some ;
their words are beautifully arranged, if
not on all occasions, yet on some especial
ly. But in all•these unnatural states, and
at the same time not original, the horns•
and long ears betray themselves. Actions
and deeds, daily occupations, reveal the
secret for a long time hidden. Self-es
teem, pride, and conceit may then plainly
manifest itself. Here, then, is the theo
rem to the preceeding. It now becomes
indemonstrable theoretical judgment.—
Why will such characters feel wronged
when a person imitates their actions.—
They think not that it, is necessary to im
prove on the past. Whether laws of po
liteness are carried out or not to the full
extent to accomplish desired ends, mat
ters not. Etiquette is no longer observed.
The. more trouble they can make to their
fellow-men, the more it carries out their
whims and fancies. They in that way be
come oderiferous, if not a bore and hatred
to society in general. Companions they
seek not, for they have none to seek. In
consequence they bold a man a fool and
imagine error to gild his path. They
spurn every man who may go the same
way they do, for fear• he may reach the
goal they are striving for, and which
they could net yet reach. They sneer at
and scorn him who has not the same idea
about things they have. They are wise
in their own. conceit. One man of such a
nature can not carry out his own ends in
view. But generally two or more are en- -
gaged to carry out a plan. The skill of
such men becomes great. (We might add
their literary attainments.) Naturally
it is in their sphere. In order that due
honor be paid to old Noah, words are used
merely to blind the conversant, although
they do not express the meaning. Nerv
ous characters are to he pitied; for a crash
of thunder or a report of a gun has al
most a deathning effect. Fear often over
comes men, but it must be gained back
again and the proper stimulants made use
of: Be of a good, humble, cheerfnl spirit,
always taking the right course of things,
loving your neighbor as yourself.
