NUMBER 181 THE WILY POST. !For t Pittsburgh Moruittg I'oat.l lIIIILIBUGIANA My Muse some humbugs late expeaed to view, Though to such task she's far from'being equal; To those, d tar public, now I'll add a few; Take them instructively, by way of sequel. The ladies, treeing reason's hopeless wreck, Expose the ruin with their own complexion, By wearing bonnets merely on the neck, The head no longer being worth protection. Of some now work, the press applauding says: "The merits of the hook are most surprising." Examine, and you'll find the weed of praise re measured by amount of ethertising,. Eschew their etaieseents, and ignore the brags, But count the dollars in a Bank of issue, You'll had one thousand repreeen'tire rags For every dollar you can find in specie.

True policy directs us to [mire, And if the property's reduced to ashes, We think the payment of the loss secure; Through policy, the corporation smashes. In western wilds prospective cities rise, - Folks flock to buy lots, nothing could be cheaper, 'Till panic shows their worth, and beauty Ilea In artiste' skill, depleting them on paper. Some foreign singer now is all the rage, None are so rash to hint it.is aftsrle, Yet might as well, to find oat what she says, Jost listen to a locomotive whistle. "Sass thought all sinners certainly chang'd sides, And whitSd the tempter, by those greet revivals, Yet, from the number of late suicides, 'Tis feared, alas, Old Scratch has made reprisals. Lottery gamblers, who have cash to spare, Hove adverse chances; let us here unfold them : They're full ten thctisand, if conducted fair— One million, with the rogues that now control them Crab cider, once so wholesome, pure and plain, A beverage quite grateful, mild and placid, Is made dyspeptic, foaming, false champagne By drugging it with vile tattarlc acid; To show how whisky mounts the wretch's brain, Would take a pen like Byron's, Scott's or Demme, By strychnine poison driven thus insane, Ile dies the victim of delirium tremens. The dry good vender, In his fabrics Praise, Vows such fast colors ne'er was pressed on cotton; The duped buyer, believing what he soya, Next finds the colors fast on wash tubs bottom.

Bur go it, humbug, we may safely say, Fur thus 'twill be until times termination; Mankind will still upon each other prey, Cupidity forbids all reformation. THE CONTRABINDIST'S REVENGE. CONFESSION [CONTINUED.] For themselves, the plan was this : They were to go off, collect four or five days' provision and water for the hooker, and settle their affairs in this country, for even they had much to settle ou so short a notice. This done, Quin was to be sent to inform me that all was ready for our es• cape, when we should, immediately on complet ing our purpose, flee to a certain place on tho coast where they were to be waiting, embark with them, and make sail for the coast of Eug• land, there to lurk till the noise of the affair should blow over. For all that night and next day I kept watch within the ruin, sometimes going to look after the horse, or for food or drink, but mostly sit ting on the pile of stones over the entrance to the vault, in which I could often indistinctly hear him stirring about. When the second night came round, Quin came to inform me they were all ready with the hook er. Thereupon, with 'stern alacrity, we com menced removing the stones from over the trap, and, lighting c splint of bog-pine, jumped down together. To our amazement, Ormond wasnot to be seen. There lay the cord with which his hands and feet had been bound, bat where was he ? The question was immediately resolved. The vent which I have said we constructed to cause a cur rent of air for the still-fires, this ho had discov ered ; and, with tho help of an old reaping hook he had found, wherewith also htahad out the cords, had enlarged it from a few inches to seve ral feet in size. This was n,t so difficult, for the damp had regularly sapped the wall, and the great, angu lar, ill built stones would come away, in the hands of a strong man, with much readiness.— Our attention was directed to it by hearing a sound of violent struggling, and, on darting across the vault to where the aperture gaped, we found within it the body of our prisoner.— His head was outside the wall, which was here about eight feet in thicknessa, and his shoulders had stuck fast in the outer opening, which, owing to the mortar being hard and firm from proxim ity to the air, ho could not so easily enlarge.— With a wild shout of joy. we caught hold of his heels and drew him gradnally in, securing him the while by binding the cord firmly around his limbs. Though much spent with hunger and thirst, and the labor of excavating the old wall, still he struggled much and violently, and would yet have been a match for either of us singly, but in the hands of both it was unavailing ; and as last flashed and covered with perspiration, his eyes wildly glancing, his heart beating, and his breath panting, he lay on the floor of the vault, his ankles and knees bound firmly together, and his hands twisted and bound behind his bank. We waited a minute or so. As we etood,Qaln, wiping the moisture from his brow, whispered 'lladn't we better do it here 7" Ormond hoard this and trembled excessively; then, in a low whining voice, he implored ns to have mercy on him ; then, breaking out sudden • ly, with a voice that made the vault and the whole ruin ring, screamed "Murder 1" but,kick lug the iron shod toe of my brogue into his month, I put an abrupt atop to this. " No," said I, in reply to Quin, " I have a plan of my own. Let's hoist him out of the vault." Thereupon, seizing him, we dragged him, vain ly kicking and wriggling his corded limbs up through the trap into the cold air of night, and tins.lly,outside the ruin. " Now," said I to my-comrade; "go fetch me first, the cart, anti. put it here, then bring out hiq horse'; you will find 4 tied to a stump close toßrian's arch." He did so, I, the while standing over my victim, who groaned deeply, but did not speak. When the horse was brought out. with the help of Quin I proceed to yoke him to the car, and effected it, though with very groat difficulty, from the spirit of the animal, and his ignorance of those who were handling him. Having com pleted this, we placed Ormond in the cart.— bound as ho was, and, springing up in front and catching up the reins,— " Now, Quin," raid I, " that is all I want from you ; look out for yourself; off with you to the hooker,and tell them that, if I don't come to them before sunrise, they may shove off, and leave me to my luck." Upon that, allowing the horse to go forward, we moved on, and Quin, standing for a little to loOk after us, plunged into the darkness, and was off. As soon as Ormond saw himself alone in the
