much-traveled road, a delicious fountain of
water gushed from the road, but by a little
effort it could be brought' within the reach
of travelers and animals passing by. Mr.
Sawyer, the owner 41 the land, gave it this
direction, and placed a wide trough for the
reception of the water. Many a panting
team was refreshed thereby, and many a
traveler tasted the cool and "sparkling bever
age.
• "Father", said Robert 'Harmer, as they
came along and saw Mr. Sawyer at work,
"what does Mr. Sawyer do that for ?"-
' "To do good," was the reply.
"What good. will that do- -to him ?, He .
' will never want to use the water."

"Friend, Don't Warear."
Upon going into a wagon shop a few
since, the first thing that met our gaze was
the above sentence; printed in large capitals,
and posted up in a conspienous,plate.
These three short words were suggestive :
'First, the:undoubted proof thrit - sotne one
connected with the sh,,p vms man who had
not forgotten" God's injunction, not to, take
his name in vain.
,eO,. "• •

that he had taken a very good way to give
them a warning to that effeW. — There was
nothing harsh about it—perfectly cool and
mild—indeed:l something pleasant—" Friend.
don't swear," just as though a peculiar inter
est was felt in each individual who ' might
read it. It Might have read, "No swearing
alwed in this Room—All Profanity forbid
den here,",or any other peremptory com
mand, but we °doubt whether either would
Nava accomplished as much as the request,
-"-F-rienti-,-tionit--ewear;" --- Would it not be
well it,-in reprovikrall-kinds - of - iniquity;
we were to use more mildness' and not so
Much denunciation ? One thing we particu
larly
noticed about this little sentence, was,
that-it_ne_v_er seemed to countenance_in_the'
least, any_specles_of_prothrtity or-irreverence.
Now we have •known some good men, indeed,
Christian men, who of course would not for
the world swear themselves, but who never
theless, would seem much delighted with a
well told story, even though it abounded in
oaths, and would laugh heartily at a joke;
evFn - th( - st - FglialTidifinsiiiibjlay at the butt
of it. But this sentence, on the contrary,
had the same solemn, gentle admonition for
allcsuch—"Priend, don't swear." 'We are
informed that the effect of this silent yet
ever speaking little sentence of truth was
most happy; that although frequented by
all classes 'of men, an oath was rarely heard
in the shop.

every place of public business 4r resort—in
all our ships--on board our steamboats—in

of public sentiment, that 'the face of every
respectable man should bear on its linea
ments such a legible and unmistakable—
" Friend, don't swear," as should effectually
awe down the terrible profanity which — is
' , ow so all abounding—that the awful swear
ing, because of which the land mourneth,
might entirely and forever cease
AN ALARMING MYSTERY.
“SITIFERIVATURAL FIRES." '
- A friend-residing-in this city, but who is
on a visit' to Owosso, Michigan, informs us
- of a very singular, and unaccountable affair
that is now transpiring in Bush towns,
five miles north of Owosso.
A farmer named Stearns, residing int
town, has an adopted daughter by the name
of Freernar, who is.ten years of age. While
this littl9 girl was sweeping the-sang room,
about a week since, she discovorod the car
pet on fire, and the inmates having put out
the fire undertook to learn its origin. There
had been no fire built in the room that morn
ing; and no light had been carried into the
room, nor could the family in any way ac
count tor the fire. In less than an hour
flames were sesaAssaing from some rags in
another rooncr. - -
trhe same day the girls clothes caught fire,
and the next marnitg a damp towel -Mrs.
Stearns hal used in wiping her face, upon
being hung on a nail, commenced burning.
The last occurrence took place in the pres
ence of some twelve persons, some of whom
are among the most respectable citizens in
the place. Next a straw stack near Mr.
Stearni house was consumed. At one time,
when a number otpersons were in the house,
the falling o r some heavy substance was
heard in the chamber directly above their
beads. Upon gciino r' up stairs, it proved to
be a bag filled withboulta and rags, and sus
pended by a cord to a beam. The bag was
on fire, and the strinc , was also burning when
the partieS entered the room.
Mr. Stearns.and family became so 'lanai
alarmed by these movements that they left
their home. When the furniture was being
moved, a. trunk, said not to have been open
ed for snore than a year, wad ilisnovered to
be on fire, and when opened th °Ames burst
.terth, consuming its contents.
The family are now living is a. house some
three miles distant from . their Mm, but the
to sterions torment, ter zed-by the doubting
a "humbug," by the scliritualists the "maul
festatien , of the spirits" by
. the "Mille - rites"
the "period of fire and .brimstone,"
and by
'Dr. Tappan "the works of the devil,' is
bound to stick to them like a brother.
•No sooner had the girl entord 'her ' new
home than her Clothes took fire in three
different places. And now, one other faint
ly; where• she has visited;are as badly tor
'wonted as is , the family of Mr- Stearns.
Owosso, as well in the adjoining
village of Currant:fa, the excitement is most
intense. people are sucking from. -every
direction to -witness this -truly wonderful
Mystery. Some of the tucist 'profound schol
ars of the State, among• whom are Dr. Tapl

and others, have been toot"; 't'the '

"Providentially Directed."
Among the attendants at a late Methodist
Conference was a very beautiful and intelli
gent looking young lady, who drew the ad.
iniiiug gaze of ninny eyes, particularly eyes
masculine, always eh the lookout for p_Le_t_ty_
leminine.facci: — During the intermission at!
noon, a spruce young minister stepped up to
the presiding elder, and said with an air of
secrecy :
"Did you obser
thr
iy the first pilloit the - /eft
"Yes," .: - Taid
. e der, "what of her 7"
"Why," said the Young'inan, "I feel im
pressed that the Lola kit es 11113 to take
di:10;1(liter my wife.. .1 think she 'would
glikea_good companion and helpmate. in the
word of the ministry."
the elder, as a gootVhristian ought, had
nothing to object.
But in a few moments another candidate
for ministerial efforts and honors, and for
the name of husband, came confidentially to
make known a like impression regarding the
same identical young lady.
"You had better whit a while. It is not
best to be hasty in determining the source of
such-impressions," said the prudent elder.
And he had said well: •for hardly were
the-slops of the second outh cold at his
side, ere a third appro• ed with the same
story; and while the t rthy confidant still
marveled, a fourth dr w near with the ques
tion :
"Did you notice, the fine noble-lookingvo
map on your left ?" ►
"Yes,' cried the smiling elder.
"Well, sir,""weut on .the fourth victim of
that unsuspicious' girl, - "it iA strongly borne
in upon my mind that it is time will of the
Lord that! should make proposals of mar
riage to that lady. Ile has impressed Inc
that she is to be my wife."
The elder coulc, hold in no longer.
'impossible I impossible :" he exclaimed,
in'•au excited tone : "The Lord never could
have intended that four nten should marry
that one woman.'
Radical Speech of a 'Conservative.
Among the speakers at a great Union mee
ting at Springfield, Ohio, on the 11th inst.,
was Gen. S. F. Cagy, of Cincinnati, well
known thereabouts as a bonservative gentle
man of the stricktest sect. In closing his
remarks Gen. Carey said :
"Now, a few words on the politics of par
ticulur I was not iu favor of Fre
mont's proclamation, butl have got religion
