PICKPOCKETS AND Ben BOOS.-1I is
stated in a London paper that the follow
ing curious trick was practised on a lady
while she was walking in the Crystal Pal
ace. She left herself suddenly tapped on
the shoulder„ 'and turning round saw a
gentleman, who said politely, .1 beg your
pardon, madam, but look there ;" and he
pointed to a black moving speck on the
shoulder of the lady's shawl, when to her
horror she beheld crawling one of those in
sects which are the abhorrence of all clean
ly and delicate housewives. With a shod
der and almost a shriek, she threw the
shawl from her shoulders, and full of shame
and confusion shook off the unclean thing,
kindly aided by the gentleman who poin
ted it out, and by two others, who were
very assiduous in rendering assistance,
mind who, she thought, pressed rather too
officiously. They suddenly Separated,
she had scarcely recovered from her con
fusion, when she found that she hail been'
rubbed of her-gold watch and chain, her
brooch, and her purse. Fortunately, she
was at this moment joined by a gentleman
who had quitted her side hot a few tun
manta before, which the thieves had no
doubt observed. lie informed the police
officer of the occurrence, the lady described
the persons who had surrounded her, and
in an instant the whole admirable detective
! arrangements of the police were operation.
Every avenue was watched, every door
was guarded, and in fifteen minutes the
thieves were in custody, and the property
was found in their possession. 'l'he well
drenised fellow who had excited the lady's
terror by pointing to the dreadful creature
on her shawl was searched, and a small
box half full of the disgusting insects w. s
found ju his possession.
A DANOEROI7S INSTINCT.—Tho heron
family possesses a very dangerous instinct
ive faculty of depriving their assailant of
eye-sight. If wounded, they will allow
a dog to approach, with unerring aim, dart
at its eyes with a force, rapidity, and cer
tainty which it is impossible to guard a
gainst. We nmemher a genii) man who
narrowly escaped He had, as lie (Notre v
ed, killed a bittern, and deposited it in a
large pocket of the shooting jacket, when,
fortunately, as lie was walking on. hap
pening to feel something insinuating itself
betwezin his arm and side, lie, just in time
to save his eye, caught sight of the bi tWrn,
which had only been wounded, and was in
the act of launching itself, with a full elas
tic jerk of its long neck, towards his face.
This faculty, however, is not entirely con•
fined to either the heron or bittern ; it ex
tends itself to other species, as appears
from similar escape of a naval officer on
the coast of Africa. "I winged," says he
..a beautiful white argrette that was pass
ing overhead, and brought it to the ground'.
When I was in the act of picking it up,
it struck at my eye with its beak, and, had
it not been for my glasses!. would inevita
bly have reduced it to perpetual darkness."
A 'rave LAWYKR.—Alexander Hamilton
was once applied to as council by a man
having the guardianship of several orphans,
who would, on coining of age, succeed to
a large and valuable estate, of which there
was a material defect in the title-deeds,
known only to their guardian, who wan
ted to get the estate vested to himself.—
Hamilton noted down the faithful exeru
tor's atatemeni,and then said to him, "Set
tle with these unhappy infante honorably to
the last rent, or I will hunt you from your
akin like a hare." The advice was strictly
followed, and the man who gave it was an
ornament to the bar and the age he lived
in.—Southern Press.
TEXPERANCS vs. Sucketts.—A. witty
clergyman bad been lecturing one even
ing on the subject of temperance, and as
usual after a lecture, the pledge was pass
ed around for signatures. "Pass the pledge
aloug that way there," said the lecturer, at
the same time pointing to the dour where
stood a gang of red nose loafers. •Pass it
along, some of those gentlemen would
like to join our cause" said lie. "We
don't bite at a bare hook," gruffly mutter
ed one of the ruintuies. "Well, ' replied
the ready clergyman, "I believe there is
a class of fish called suckers that do not
bite,"
DARING OUTRAOR AND RORDRRY..—We
learn from the Berke County aitlier. that
lest Saturday evening, shortly after 7 o'-
clock. the dwelling of an aged farmer Henry
Sonata* in 'Greenwich township, ou the
State road near Klinesville, was entered
by three men.. one of them masked, who

When the robbers made theit attack, a'
girl belonging to the family escaped, and
ran to Klinesville for assistance. hut before
the neighbOrs could reach the? house, the
rascals had departed with their plunder.
Mr. lelonntag offers a reward of SILOO for

GREAT TELKORAPIIIC ACHIEVEMENT.-
The union of France and England by
means of the submarine-channel Electri
cal Telegraph--the stupendous cable of
twenty-four miles in length—electrifies the
Academy of Science in Paris as strongly as
it moves the whole Paris public. On the
22d ult. M. Arago stated that advantage
would be at once taken of it for a inure ex
act determination of the difference in lon
gitude of the observatories of Paris and
Oreenwieti. By means of the electrical
telegraph, in each port a vessel about to
sail may have the precim hour of the ob
servatory of thi? capitol. The communi

Gen WINFIKLDScoTr was among the
guests at the Fair of the Maryland Insti

of people present with the greatest en
thusiasm. During his stay he was in

companions, among whom was Gen %Yel

Society, and extended the invitation to the
Executive committee of the Institute.—
General Scott accepted the invitation,
before leaving the Institute, its President,
Joshua Vans:int, Esq., gave as a toast—

ClacuasTasrtai. Evioeiiice.—Our read
ers doubtless recollect the shooting of a
mistress in Chester county, which was
traced to the culprit by the wadding oh the
gun. A similar case has recently transpir
ed in York State. On the trial it appear
ed that Win. R. Palmer had been on ill
terms with his brother Timothy ; that he
had threatened to kill him ; that on the
15th of May last, William followed Tima 7 ,,
thy to the woods, and that soon after th 6
report of a gun was hearth. The dead
body of Timothy was found in the woods
with a tree fallen:4 across it, as if he had
met with an,accideutal death. A c:ose ex
amination t ahowed a gun shut wound, and
in that wound was a part of the waddiiig. a
piece of the Albany Evening Journal of A
pril 18th. On the next day a loaded gun of
the prisoner's was dischargek and the
wadding proved to he also a part of the
Albacy Evening Journal of the same (late,
like type. &c. The jury on the strength
of this have declared \V plum guilty of the
murder of Timothy. and hers sentenced to
be Min un the 31101 of Notember next.
END OP A RUNAWAY MATCII.-A Cin
cinnati paper tells us that much less than
a year ago, a young lady, whose name
need not be mentioned. married a young
gentleman named Harrington, living in
Vicksburg, and did so decidedly against
the will of her parents, who refused to let
the wedding take plare in their house.—
The pair left immediately for Vicksburg,
where they spent the time fur a while
very agreeably. About !Our months after
they arrived, their house was visited by
two police offirers, for the purpose of ar
resting the husband for forgery. The case
was made plain against him, and he was
sent to the penitentiary. The misfortune
had such an effect upon the young wife
that she never left her room alive, but died
of grief. A few days singe might he seen
ascending the landing, a hearse containing
a coffiu, and in the cirriage following it a
lady and gentleman, the father and mother
of the forger's wile.
TOO GOOD TO BE LOST.—The two daily
papers in Elmira, Indiana, have been firing
paper bullets of the brain," at each other
for some time past, with much severity.
Mrs. C. M. Burr, assistant editress of
the Karla!), became entangled in the con•
test, and received some pretty harsh raps
from Mr. Fairman, of the Republican.—
As an offset to this, Mrs. Burr sent a little
poetic gem to Mr. F. for insertion. over a
fictitious name, of course—entitled the
•' Death of Slimmer." Fairman nabbed
at the bait—the poetic gem was set before
his readers, and it proved to be an acros
tic—the initial letters reading, " Long live
Fairman, Prince of Asses, Amen !"
There never was much gained by quarrel.

THE PLAOU6 AT PALMAS.—Death of the
American Consul and Fumily.—The New
York Journal of Commerce contains an
extract of a letter from an officer on board
the United States brig Porpoise, dated
Tenerife, Sept. 4, giving an account of
a plague, resembling the cholera, which
swept over Palmas, one of the Cape de
Verde'. One-fifth of the entire population
of 18,000 have fallen victims, and the dis
ease is still raging, though somewhat aba

" The family of our consul, Mr. Torres,

the exception of one child. He was a very
worthy UM, and had several handsome
and interesting daughters, who were great

WE WANT MONEY.
tertt is unplessant at all times to DUN
our patron's for the monies due us for our
labor. We. have a goodly list of prompt
paying subscribers, who seldom fail to re
port themselves in good season, and to
these we feel indebted for our ability to
'meet more than one pressing engagement.
There are others, however, who either for
forget that the Printer must have the where
withal to live by, as well as other people,
or who think he has a supernbmulanee of
this worhl's goods, and can do without his
just dues longer than his neighbors. Now
we do assure both these classes that they
are most egregiously mistaken. Our en
gagements for the regular supply of type,
paper, ink, labor, &e., (to say nothing of
flour, meat, and matters in the eating line—
Dilaters quite as essential to printers as to
other folks,) are heavy and have to be met
in cash, uniformly and promptly ; and ev
ery dollar withheld from us subjects us to
inconvenience and embarrassment.
Now we have an immense number of
small accounts on our books, running
through one, two, three, four, five and mix
years. These may appear trivial to each
delinquent patron, but in the aggregate
they make up a sum of considerable im
portance to us. We have in no instance,
since the "Star" passed into our hands,
troubled our patrons with calls from a col
lector, preferring to await the promptings
of their own convictions of duty. We trust
that this present appeal will be promptly
and cheerfully responded to. The plain
English of the matter is—"WE WANT
MONEY"—and our friends must sec to it
that we get it.

will furnish an opportunity to our patrons
residing iii the County to forward money to

sWo are indebted to a friend for a
copy of Dr. W.L.ATLEWS Address before
the Linmean Association of Pennsylvania
Colkfo, in September last, which has just
been issued in a neat form from the press
of Mr. Neinstedt. "Physical Education—
tile only solid foundation of. Moral and
Intellectual Culture and I )evelopement," is
the theme treated of, and in its discussion we
have a series of imponsaut truths brought
to view, which, if properly studied and ap
preciated by the reader, cannot fail to do
him good. Dr. Arixt: is the distinguish
ed professor of Medical Chemistry in the
3ledi ca l Department of Pennsylvania Col
lege, at Philadelphia.
The Student," a most excellent
and cheap Family Miscellany, devoted to
the Physical, Moral and Intellectual Im
provement of Youth, published by Messrs.
Fowun. & WELLs, N. York, commences
a new voltnne with the November No.—
We regard this publication as one of the
very best of the day for the family circle,
furnishing as it does in every number some
thing adapted to every capacity—from the
child just learning to read, up to the matu
rer mind of the parent. The plan is an
original one and should insure for the work
a very extended patronage. Re moral
tone is elevated, and the instruction furn
ished is varied and useful. The low price
at which it is published, (only one dollar
per annum) should ensure it an admission
into every family where there are children
—rich or poor. Better save a dollar in
useless toys, and place the Student in
stead in the hands of your children.

These figures, says a Washington cor

The Uwe of Advert lNlnß•
KrThe Providence Post has the follow- 1
ing, which we copy, because it contains
truths that every business wan should read.
"Mr. V. P. Palmer, a man of remarkable
business capacity, and with an experience
such as few men have enjoyed, and who
for the last tea years has occupied a most
important relation between publishers and ;
the business public, a relation, we fear, not
sufficiently appreciated by either, says :
"Ath+rtising is the great lever of success
with the merchant." lle gives illustra
tions by hundreds of cases, in which firm
of moderate business, and comparatively
unknown, have resolved to spend $5OO,
81000, or $2OOO, and in some cases as high
las $lO,OOO a year in advertising. Their
business at once rushed up to a point of
prosperity never known to them before,
'and in a few years the proprietors retired
on princely fortunes. 'This is all natural
enough—all reasonable enough,' says Mr.
Palmer. 'The newspapers give the public,
far and near, every day, information. A
merchant can make himself known, and the
nature of his business, too, through the
newspapers. He can draw the eyes of 50,-
000 persons directly upon his store and
stock of goods, and by doing so, ho cannot
fail to increase his sales to an enormous ex
tent.' 'Why I' continues Mr. Palmer, 'this
matter is not yet fully, anderstood, but our
dealers throughout the country are gottipg
awake to the subject, and it will not be
long before a merchant will as soon think
of taking a journey in a car without an
engine attached, as to attempt to succeed
in business without advertising. frlvery- ,

sing pho•oxteosivoly succeed, while most
Others who do not , take this advantage,

Thanksgiving.
Nothing, certainly, can be more gratify
ing than the spectacle of a prosperous arid
peaceful State, pausing, in the midst of its
felicity, to acknowledge its obligations to
Providence. Such manifestations of a pi
ous recognition of its dependence, for what
ever of good fortune it enjoys, upon the
bounty of Heaven, is ono of the best evi
dences of the wholesome moral condition
of the people, and exerts the happiest in
fluence in confirming and increasing the
public virtue. It is the proud distinction
of the States composing the American con
federacy, that they regularly set apart ono
day in the year upon which to make a for-
nod acknowledgment of their indebtedness
to divine goodness for the blessings of
peace and plenty. No other governments,
it is true, have had more than ours to be
thankful for ; and while there abides in
the popular heart a due sense of what the
republic owes to him who led it safely
through the perils of revolution, supported
the feebleness of its infancy, and still pre
serves it., secure and vigorous, in a career
of unexampled prosperity, it is morally cer
tain that no fatal disasters can befall us as
nation, and that the same beneficent hand
which has guarded us heretofore, will con
tinue to guide and protect us in the future.
The foundations of all political systems
rest more for their permanency upon the
virtuous principles of the people who insti
tuted them than on all other sources of
strmigth combined : and there is no rea
son to hope for the stability of the most
perfect and benign government ever con
ducted, if they for whose interests it is es
tablished acknowledge not, in their obedi
ence to it, the restraints and motives of an
enlightened religious sentiment. Our liber
ties have, thus far, suffered no abatement
or violence ; the constitution of this glori
ous family of States has preserved, by its
mild, yet potent, sway, the happy institu
tions which have grown up and flourished
under it ; and, notwithstanding the alarms
which, too often for unworthy purposes,
are created with reference to the security
lif the national peace and happiness, they
both are as undeserved to-day as the intel
ligent itatriot could well expect them to be.
But this durability of the manifold bles
sings which it confers, is dependent more
upon the sense which every citizen posses
ses of its necessity to his individual advan
tage and the public welfare, and that con
sciousness of his responsibility to Provi
dence for its perpetuation, than upon all
the miserable protection it can ever derive
from those who are loudest in profession§,
of loyalty to it for purposes of selfish am
bition, or the comparatively feeble guards
with which temporary legislation may seek
to fortify, but indeed to embarrass and
weaken, the monuments of the constitution.
Internal difficulties may arise, as they have
arisen, to threaten the safety of the confed
eracy and the peace of each State ; but
while the masses are penetrated with an
adequate conception of the value, to them,
of the government under which they enjoy
so much of real power, comfort and intle
peloknee, and mingle with their patriotism
a just gratitude to Heaven for the singu
larly fortunate political condition with
which they are favored, the "Union" will
surely survive.
Pennsylvania—if we except some evils
brought upon her by mistaken legislation—
has participated liberally, heretofore, as
now, in the general prosperity of the coutt
' try ; and during the present year the God
of the harvest has filled her fields and val
' bye with the fruits of the earth."—
Throughout her borders, peace and plenty
reign—and health crowns the fullness of
her joy. In view of her great happiness
her faithful chief magistrate has issued a
proclamation appointing Thursday the
27th day of November. a day of general
Thanksgiving throughout the State.—N.

of Legislature; in Mississippi & Michigan
for Governor, State and County officers, &
Members of Legislature—Mississippi also,

and in Louisiana for Members,of Congress',
We annex the returns which came to lumoll
by last night's mail :
NEW YORK
NEW YORK, Nov. s.—The democrats
have elected 14 Aldermen, and the whigs
five. In the 16th ward, the baUot box
was destroyed by a band of lawless row
dies. The democrats have elected 16 As
sistant Aldermen, and the whip three—
The democratic majority in the Board of
Aldermen is nine, and their majority in the
Board of Assistant Aldermen is thirteen.
The whigs last year had a majority of five
in each board s There has been great split
ting of tickets. A large number of whip
voted the independent ticket, while the dem
ocrats were pretty much nnited on their
regularly nominated ticket.
A LHASA', Nov. 5.-11 isgenerally conce
ded that the democrats throughout the State
are scccessful. The whip have a majori
ty in the Senate about the sane as last
year. The Assembly is doubtful, but prob
ably democratic.
ALBANY, Nov. 5, 7 P. M.--Otsego
county just heard from, officially reported
900 democratic majority. The latest re
turns make the result in the State again
doubtful.
NEW JERSEY
NRWARK, Nov. 6.—The few returns
thus far received, though quite meagre, are
sufficient to.intlicate a Whig defeat through
out the State. There being no great ques
tion of public policy at issue, they suffered
themselves to be divided everywhere upon
local considerations, and the people seem
to have become oblivious of party obliga
tions, voting upon a greater number of tick
et, than are known to have been in circu
lation at any one time before.
TRENTON, Nov. sth.—ln the State the
Senate will probably stand 12 democrats
to fl wings, and the House 36 democrats
to 24 whigs.
DELAWARE
WILMINGTON. Nov. s.—Every district
heard from gives a majority in favor of the
Convention to frame a new Constitution.
MISSISSIPPI
JACRSON (Miss.) Nov. 4.—The election
in this State continues for three (lays, and
is progressing with much spirit, an im
mense vote being polled. Gen. Foote, the
Union candidate for Governor, is sweep
ing everything before him, and will carry
the State by 20,000 majority.
In the let Congreasional district D. B.
Nabors is elected; in the 20 J. D. Free

DETROIT, Nov. s.—The election in this
State for Governor and Lieutenant Gover
nor came off yesterday. Robert M'Clel
land, Loco, is elected Governor by about
10,000 majority.
MARYLAND
BALTIMORE, Nov. 5. 10 P. M.—This is
the first election under the new Constitu
tion, and the innumerable number of offices
to be filled has drawn out a very full vole.
But little will be known of the result for a
day or so, as the counting off the tickets
will he a slow and tedious process. In
this City the election was warmly con
tested by the friends of the rival candidates,
the tickets being much split up. But few
tickets read off up to this hour.
In the 3d ward a club of rowdies known
as the "Short Boys," kicked up a row in
which one of their number, Charles James,
was so badly stabbed as tocause his death
in a few hours. Two others, Francis
Connelly and "Cutting Tobe," were dan
gerously wounded in the same affray.
LOUISIANA
New ORLEANS, Nov. 4.—The Whigs
elect their Senators, Representatives. and
Sheriff. in this city, by large majorities.—

the Church of St. Charles Borromeo. in
Brooklyn, on Sunday last, was listened to
with deep attention by a crowded audi

mittance. Untill his departure he will con
tinue daily to administer the temperance
pledge at the Cathedral, in New York.
THE RHODE ISLAND LEGISLATURE ad

State Agricultural Fair.
TAR WA?! AGRICULTURAL FAIR 'which
was held at Harrisburg, is repreoented to
to have been an exceedingly gratifying oc
casion. All persons who were present
concur in the opinion that, considering it
was the firsidemonstration oldie kind ever
made in Pennsylvania, the result surpass
ed the expectation of the most sanguine.
and was highly honorable in every respect.
It is estimated that more that 25,000
visitors were upon the ground during the
days of the Exhibition ; and besides many
who came from other States nearly every
section of our Commonwealth had some
of its farmers present, either as contribu
tors or spectetrirs.
This large concourse of the citizens of
Pennsylvania at the State capital, attracted
there by the only agricultural display of
so general a &racier ever made on her
soil indicates a very pervasive and earnest
interest in a subject which is yet capable
of having much valuable light shed upon
it by the researches of science and the ex
perience of practical experiments, not
withstanding the vast strides which have
been taken in the art of husbandry,
by the aid of philosophical discovery,
since the primitive rudeness of pastoral life
in the earliest periods of the race. It has
long been a reproach to us that, while nth
er States less favorable circumstanced,,
were doing so much to advance the inter-'
eats of fanning, we were entirely inactive
in the same important work, except so
far as our several county societies may
have contributed to improvement in the
knowledge and skill of tillage and its kin-'
tired branches of industry. The organi
zation, lately, of a State Institution, and
the eminently successful character of the
first exhibition which has taken place tin
der its auspices, show that a better spirit
is awake among us relative to a matter
involving, in a large degree, the prosperity
and dignity oh the Commonwealth, and de
serving of the warmest and most ardent
sympathies of the community.
The display at Harrisburg of linek, ag
ricultural implements, and farm products
of all kinds, is described as having been
exceedingly creditable to the enterprise,
liberality and intelligence of the farmers of
Pennsylvania ; and there is every reason
to anticipate that future exhibitions, which
will have the benefit of better preparation
than a first occasion of the sort could well
enjoy, will be equal in all particulars to
similar demonstrations in any other see
lien of the Union.
A most grauitiying feature of the Fair,
was the presence of the wives and daugh
ters of manyof the fanners of the s rrotind•
ing counties, who not only added to the
agreeableness of the scene by their person
al charms, but brought with them to that
praiseworthy expositiou of agricultural
skill and industry of the "Keystone,"
many admirable specimens of the work of
their own fair hands, in the shape of car
pets, quilts, cheese, butter. and a goodly
number of other things oldie kind, that bore
honorable testimony to their expertness
.and diligence. The receipts of the Socie
ty during three days, for admission to the
Fair Grounds, are said to have amounted
to more than four thousand six hundred
.dollars. Great as was the number of per
-sons present, the assemblage would, we
learn, have been much larger, had the
means of conveys/me been capable of ac
commodating many who were obliged, af
ter reaching the several nations along the
line of the Pennsylvania railroad, to re
turn to their homes.
This was a misfortune which no reasona
ble forest& could have guarded against,
as no one, not exceptiug those who were
charged with the arrangements for the
Fair, and who should have been best (pal
lied to form a correct conjecture upon
the subject, expected so many visitors.
Upon the whole, the Exhibition was of a
character to redact honorably upon the
State, and to encourage the Society, whose
earliest effors kave been so successful. to
go on, earnestly and energetically, iii the
good and naportant work in which they are
engaged—North American.
Ex-President VAN BURKS! spent several
days lately with Mr. Blair, laie of the

A BAD BDAAIL—The Pittsburgh Post
tells us of a recent railroad collision on the
line between Monroeand Adrian, in which
damage to the amount of $15,009 was
done. The trains were running at the rate
of twenty-five miles an hour, and although
every effort was made to stop the speed
in the half mile intervening after the
danger was discovered, the collision
was terrific. Both locomotives were end
ed over on the track, awl both trains were
in ruins. When within about twenty rods
of each other the engineers, &c., leaped
from the engines, and escaped serious in
jury.
A Corny Buitmirso.—The proposed
enlargement of the capitol at Washington,
a correspondent of the New York Jour
nal of cotnmerce says, will cost five mill
ions of dollars. The marble and setting
for the exterior must cost, at least, twelve
hundred thousand dollars, and that for the
interior as much more. The whole pres
ent appropriation for the work is only one
hundred thousand dollars.
Fon Ltaszta.—On Tuesday last there
passed through Washington, on their way
to Baltimore, more than half a hundred
toes', women and children of color, accom
panied by twelve white overseers and two
fnur•horae wagons. These people were
the property of Mrs. Margaret Miller, of
Culpepper, Virginia, who recently mane
-witted them on condition of their emigra
tion to Liberia. They were on their way
to Baltimore, whence they were to sail lor
Liberia under the auspices of the Coloni
zation Society ; and by their cheerfulness
and gayety showed how well they were .
pleased with their change of circumetan
:stances •and the prospects which await
them.

A HOME FOR ORPHAN CHH,PRICsr,
A few Christian friends in this vicinity,
moved by the love of Jesus Christ and the
sad lot of the orphan, have undertaken to
establish an Asylum for these bereaved ;
ones. This resolution has been formed
only after much deliberation and prayer
and they trust in a spirit of entire depen- '
donee on the divine aid. As many of our
readers have a peculiar interest in the pro
posed institution, we subjoin the outlines
of the plan :
It is designed to he a Church Institu
tion. While none will he excluded, the
orphans of ministers, teachers, and mem
bers of the Lutheran Church will have the
preference in the way of admission. The
faiih of the church as taught in her cate
chism will be the type of the religious in
struction imparted. And the chief min of
those who have charge of the institution
will be to bring these little ones to a knowl
edge of the Redeemer. Daily instruction,
daily prayer, and the watchful oversight
of a Christian pastor, will be employed
with reterencu to this great end. In this
way it is hoped that many of the children
of the church and especially the orphans
of emigrants, will be trained spin die nur
ture and admonition of the Lord, and be
qualified to fill position, of usefulness and
respectability in society.
The friends who have ninlertaken this
work,depend wholly on God for the means
necessary to erect a huildvig and support
the orphans. They will commence us
soon as possible on a small scale, and ex
tend ant! enlarge their operations as the
need may require. They are determined
to create no debts, and tor the present will
rent a building until ground ran be ptir
chaled and one wing of the future Asylum
is erected. All display and useless ex
penditure will be conscientiously avoided,
and the contributions of Christian friends
will go directly to the care and support of
the orphans who may be received.
A PETITION TO TOE Porx.—Rev. Dr.
Durbin, the eloquent Methodist divine, in a
vigorous article in the Chrixtian .3drocate
and Journnl, recommends that a petition
be presented by Christians of all denomi
nations, to the Pope, to allow within his
dominions,"the true principles of religious
freedom," as a simple equivalent to the
freedom granted to Catholics throughout
the christian world. Dr. I). presumes
that Archbishop Lluglles would unite in

PROTECTION TO PENNSYLVANIA IRON.-
The Boston Journal, referring to a state

A MAN SHOT FON A Tuaxxv.--William
Hite, residing five or six miles from this
place, and his brother John, one morning
last weak, wore in the woods hunting tur
keys. William was crawling among the
bushes making a noise 'in -imitation of a
turkey, which hunters denominate "call
ing." John some distance oft, seeing the
stir in the bushes and hearing the noise
above alluded to, shot, and the ball struck
his brother on the back part of the head
near the ear, but did not . penetrate the skull.
It has been extracted, and we are inform
ed the accident is not likely to terminate
fatally. We advise hunters to have a
clear view of their game before they shoot.

A Fox's Ravartatt,—The Rev. I. Mur

lowing story :
"An old and respectable man of the
county of Montgomery, 4.41 . frequently to
relate an anecdote of a circumstance which
he saw. In his youth he resided on the
banks of the Hudson river. One day he
went to a bay on the river in order to shoot
decks or wild geese. When he came to
the river he saw six geese beyond shot.—
lie determined to wait fur them to ap
proach the shore. While sitting there. he
saw a lox come down to the shore and
stand some time and observe the geese.
At length he turned and went into the
woods, and came out with a very large
bunch of moss in his minttli. He then
entered the water very silently, sank him
self, and then keeping the moss above the
water, himself concealed, he floated among
the geese. Soddenly one of them was
drawn under the water, and the fox soon
appeared on the shore with the goose on
on his back, lie ascended the bank and
found a hole, made by the tearing up of a
tree. This hole he cleared, placed in the
goose, and covered it with great care,
strewing leaves over it. The lox then
left; and while he •v as gone, the hunter un
buried the goose, closed the hole and re
solved to await the issue.
In about half an hour the fox returned
with another in company. They went
directly to the place where the goose had
Been buried. and threw out the earth. The
goose could not he found. They stood
regarding each ?Wier for some time, when
suddenly the second fox attacked the other
most furiously, as if offended by the trick
of his friend. During the battle he shot
them both." •
