■ A venerable old man says :
“Lei the slandered take comfort—it is on
ly hi fruit trees that thieves throw stones. "
The old man is right ; whoever saw thieycs
throw stones at the birch, maple or elm tree !
The more fruit the tree bears, and the richer
it is, the more it is likely to attract the atten
tion of a thief.
No man that tries to do his duly to his fel
low, and endeavors to live to bear the truits
of true religion in his daily conduct, can for
a moment suppose that he will pass along
through life, without being slandered more or
less.
Such a man will of necessity have some
enemies, and these enemies will try in every
way .to injure him; and among others they
will not be slow in stirring up the polluted
w.iters of defamation and slander-
A man who has no enemies, is merely a
milk and water nothing. We would not give
three fics fur such a man.
He who is anything—who makes his mark
in the world—who good—will have en
emies ; and if he have them he will be sure
to be slandered by them.
The Last Wish. —We never fail to feel, I
when the powerless witness of the last gasp
of the dying, it is worth the effort of a life
time to be able to die well. And then, as
well as in the crowded street, or the solitude
of our study, we find the inquiry stealing
over us, “What would you wish, when your
self the actor of that last scene !” The men
tal answer his been sn prompt, so frequent,
so uniform, that it has become stereotyped on
the tablet of our memory, and we read it off
this beautiful day of departing May : “That
1 had been kinder—mure indulgent to my
(ellnw strugiilers in the a real I field of Life.”
Reader! How is it with you? Let you and
I begin this moment to practice that glorious
lesson, and ravishingly sweet will be memor
ies when we come to die.— Hall's Journal
of Health.
Printer's Luck. —A week or (wo ago a
Cincmnnii primer visited (he ihealre and
(bund a pockei book containing §250. Rich
bevond all expectation, he determined lo rest
awhile. He “put a sub on,” spent what mon
ey he had of his own, incurred several liitle
debts, and then concluded to break in upon
Ins treasure by purchasing a new hat. He
emered a hat store, bought one of the latest
style, and tendered one of the $5 notes in
payment. It was pronounced a counterfeit,
and so, in turn, every note of his treasure.
He has gone lo work again, spying that be
ing a printer he should have known that the
bills were worthless. ,

the deuce can I hold it, and two horses draw,
ing it away from me? but give it to-me in

convened not long since the following toast

Charles O. Etas of Tioga

public to the followingadvertiseraent. “Mao wan's
but little here below nor wants that little long** m
an old saying and perhaps true to a certain extents
Bui it seems to me that in this lime of general
suspension and panic, everything is, tending to a
reversion of time-honored sayings, and everybody
wants a little more still. The farmers (and they
really ought to have as much.as anybody, for they
are to our country what amain spring is to a watch,)
wants a little more for their wheal, buckwheat, rye,
corn, oaU, potatoes, &c., than the purchaser feels
able and willing to pay. The merchant wants a
little more for Ills Flour, Pork, Salt, Dry Goods,
Bools & Siiocs, Hats &, Caps, Hardware, Crockery
and ten thousand Utile things he has to sell than
the farmer thinks he ought to pay.
At this present time it seems to be conceded by
all that the cash value of good wheat is $1 per
bushel; buckwheat, 2 to 2-6; corn 3-6 to 4-6;
oats, 2 to 2-6; butter, 14 to 16 cents. Now to
equalize the matter and make it satisfactory on both
sides, I want and will agree to take from every
farmer of Tioga county, all the wheat I can get
for the next 60 days at 9 and 10 shillings per bush
el according to quality; buckwheat a*. 2-6 to 3;
eurn sto 5-6; oats 2-9 to 3 shillings; butler 16 to
19 cents.

XT red Salamander Safes, No. 26
S. Fourth Street, Philada.
Report of the Committee appointed to superintend
the Burning of the Iron Safe*, at Reading, Feb.
27, 1857. j
“The undersigned, members of the committee, do
respectfully report, that we sawj the two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by Farrels &. Herring and Evans
& Watson, placed .side by side in a larnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the PbiladeU
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
at Heading, manufactured by [Farrels & Herring,
and the safe in use by H. A. Lantz, in his storey
manufactured by & Watson, and putin books
and papers precisely alike. ; j
The fire was started at 8J o'clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut topjwood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the superintendence of
the subscribers, members of the Committee. The
Safes were then cooled off with water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and!sent to H. A. Lanlz’s
store for public examination j after they were first
examined and marked • by 1 the Committee. The
books and papers taken from the Safe manufactured
by Evans & Watson were butj slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those [taken from the Safe
manufactured by Farrels & Herring, were in opr
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans &, Watson’s Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair and im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.
JACOB H. DYSHER,
Daniel s. hunter, .
Having been absent during the burning, we fully
coincide with the above statement of the condition
of the papers and books taken but of their respective
