OLD ESTABLISHED Manufactory, No. 718 ARCH rett, above Philadelphia. A lady elegantly dressed in the habiliments of woo" was met in the street, a few days ago, by an acquaint ance who ventured to remark upon her being in mourning.

Sr Backley; in one of his lectures made use of an illustration that will bear repeating : Holding a dime close to his eyes with one hand, and a half dollar at some distance with the other, he said "Now, I cannot see the half dollar with this eye, for the dime is so near to it, it obscures my vision. So it is with min of business ; - in their eagerness to save a dollar they often lose sight of the fif . within their reach." car" In Petroleum V.

MARIETTA, PA., , SATURDAY, .."-NOVE)BMi,-..:17,-,-Iso.o. Cold Water Arrows—NO. 4 The inconeisteracy of Drunkards and By the , above caption* it is not meant to be implied.tbat the class mentioned are the only persons who are inconsist ent, for we believe that there is a cer tain degree of inconsistency in all wrong doers arising from the fact, perhaps,"that whilst their actions tend in one direc tion, their conscienees, until wholly sear ed, point in.the opposite one. Bat this is sometimes very strikingly illustrated in the ease of the drunkard and the drunkard-maker. We once met a man who when sober was a most excellent physician. On the occasion . referred to, he had evidently wandered to the outskirts of the village to escape being " called " to the sick room. He could not walk erect without holding to the arm of a friend of ours ; as we returned to the village, and yet to a remark made to that friend upon the effect of abstinence in general upon . longevity. The physician replied, with stammering lips : " Yes, abstinence is a good thing. I always recommend total abstinence to my patients." We came to know him better afterwards and be lieve he spoke the truth, for we have known few better and more considerate physicians when.not intoxicated. A city missionary in London, on one occasion found, in a public house, writ ten in a bold baud, framed, and placed where all could read them, the following lines : "0 that men would put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains. Drunkenness expels reason, drowns the memory, diminishes strength, effaces beauty, inflames the blood, causes exter nal, internal sad incurs* wounds. :It is a witch to the senses, a devil to the soul, a thief to the . purse, the beggar's companion. A wife's woe, and a child's sorrow ; makes a strong man mad, and a wise man a fool. He is worse than a beast, and is a' self-murderer, who drinks to others' good health and robe himself of his own." How strangely it must have looked to see such a philippic against drunkenness as that hanging up in sight of the land lord and hie customers. And yet I have no doubt that the miserable rumeeller, sure of his victims, was glad enough to let it hang there as a salve to his con science, and-if any poor fellow got "too drunk" on his liquor he could point complacently to that as a proof that "he was making himself worse than a beast." We once heard a man who was sel dom sober, and who almost burnt out his eyes drinking liquor, close a eulogy upon a great statesman with the .words.:-- ' But they say he drinks very hard, yes ( with a wise , shake of the , head) they say he's a hard drinker." All, of course, are not thus inconsist ent. Many "glory in their shame," and make a boast of their iniquity. Many scoff at all that is good, and decent, and sober, and make the man who attempts to ieform them the theme of their rude and vulgar songs. But we• cannot but think, that underneath all their low, swaggering, there lies, only partially asleep, an outraged conscience that w ill one day thanderin their ears, those aw ful vords: "You have been a destroyer and a self murderer." And you, 0 Retailer of strong drink, when you,see the intemperate , perishing on your right band and on your left, dois the solemn question never occur, "What, influence have I had in forming their character and bringing them , to ruin ?" A lirronr.—A gentleman one even.: Lug said to a lady, near whpm he was seated, "Why is a woman unlike a mir. ror ?" • She "gave it up." " Because," said the , rude fellow, " a : mirror.' reflects without speaking ; a woman, speaks without reflecting." "Very good," said she'. "Now an swer me. "Why is a man unlike a mir ror ?" "1 cannot-tell-you." Biemise the mirror is polished; and ha man is not." - A.

Taylor, the_ prin. ter poet Perhaps there_ is no depar#nu4, of enterprise whose details are less under • - stood, by. ,intolligont, people, than.the . "art preservative," the achievement of types. Every day their life long they are ac customed- to read the newspaper, and find fault with its statements, its arrange ments, its looks ; to plume themselves upon' the discovery of soma roguish and acrobatic type that gets into ft frolic and stands upon.its head ; or 'of 'some waste letter or two in• it—but of the process by which the newspaper is made, of the miriade of motions and the thous ands of pieces necessary to its composi tion, they know little and think less. They imagine they-discourse of a won der, indeed, when they speak of .the fair white carpet, woven for thought to walk on, of the rags that fluttered on the back of the beggar yesterday. But there is something more wonder ful still. When we look at the hundred and fifty-two little boxes, somewhat shaded with the touch of inky , fingers, that compose the printer's "case," noise lessly, except the clicking of the types, as one by one they take their places in the, growing line--we think we have foubd the marvel of the art. We think how many fancies in frag ments there are in the boxes ; how many atoms of poetry and eloquence the prin ter can make here an] there, if he bad only a little chart to work by; how many facts in a- small " handful ;" how much truth in chaos. Now he picks up' the scattered ele ments until he holds in his hand a stanza of "Gray's. Elegy," or a monody upon Grimes' "All Buttoned up hefore." Now he sets "puppy missing," and now "Paradise, Lost ;" he arrays, . a hride in "small caps," and.a sonnet in " nonpa reil ;" and he announces the laughing " live " in one sentence--transposes the words and deplores the days that tire few and "evil" in the next. A poor jest ticks its way slowly into the printer's hand, like a clock just run ning down, and a strain of eloquence marches into the line letter by letter. We fancy we can tell the difference by hearing by the ear, but perhaps not. The types that told of a wedding yes terday annoupce a burial, to-morrow— perhaps the same letters. They are the elements to make a world of. Those types are a world with some thing in it as beautiful as spring, as rich as summer, and as grand as autumn flow ers that frost cannot wilt. Fruit that shall ripen for all time. The newspaper has become the log.; book of the world. It tells at what rate the world is running. We cannot find our "reckoning" without it. True, the green grocer may bundle up a pound of candles in our last expressed thoughts, but it is only coming to base uses, something that is (one times in numerable. We console ourselves by thinking that one can make of that newspaper what he cannot mako of living oaks—a bridge for time that he can fling over the chasth of the.dead years, and walk :lately back upon the shadowy sea into the far past. The singer shall not end •bis song, nor the soul be eloquent no more,.

A Copperhead Orator 7 A rather rich joke occurred, to one of ' the promineet Copperheade in the bo rough of Phoenixville, during the late 'campaign and which we donut feel war ranted in permitting to pass unnoticed. On the sth of Octobee,ihe Copperheads , held a meeting at the above named place, and one of the speakers, whose name we withhold for the present, remained over night. He was entertained by, Esquire ---, and of course, was assigned •lodg frig in the best,toom. It appears ✓ that thelostess, had deposited in one of the drawers of a bureau which stood in the room, a keepsake in the shape of $l5• in gold. The next morning, after the host •and his guest had started for the cars, Mrs. ( who is a good, staunch Union woman,), feeling an uneasiness about her treasure, made an examination, and lo ! the gold was not there. She imme diately started in pursuit of her husband and his friend, and overtaking, them be. fore they reached -the depot, at once boldly charged the Copperhead orator with the theft of the property. He stoutly denied the charge, and her hus band being very much shocked at the sudden and unexpected turn things were taking, apologized to his guest, and in sisted that such a thing was entirely impossible. But - the good Union wom an was not -to be thus easiltput off. With -a. persistence and energy eharac teristic of her sex, she insisted that it was true, and at last brought conviction to the mind of her husband, who seized the-culprit by the collar, when he at once owned up, and disgorged the coin in full. The gentleman who had the honor of entertaining this distinguished Copperhead orator, plead very hard with our informant ( a Union man who hap pened to be present, and heard and wit nessed what transpired-), that he• would not divulge it until after the election 1 Notwithstanding the election is over, our Copperhead friends have taken no steps to punish the culprit. ()an it be possible that this is the character of Copperhead orators generally, and to administer justice to all of them, would be entirely too stupenduous an under taking? We trust our District Attorn ey will not be thus dismayed, but will at once make , a, beginning with the in dividual above referred to.

Ur Lady Hamilton, the friend of Lord - Nelson, was once rowed ashore by one of Nelson's saitors,, whom she deem ed deserving of some courtesy at her hands. " Will you have a glass of rum, a mug of beer or a tumbler of punch ?" inquired the lady. "If you please, ma'am," responded Jack, with hie bent bow, " I will take the rum now, and toss off the mug of beer We your ladyship is mixing the punch 'tor de."

The steel was furious because the filet bruis ed his sides. The flint said, "You have chipped, my side, too, and made me look old and liattered. I won't stand it." "Very well," said the spunky steel, "let us part. Good-bye." "0 good-bye," replied the Hint, " I guess you won't amount to much when I'm gone." "And you won't be worth a spark with out me," retorted the steel. And so the flint and steel parted. While acting together they had been useful, but separated they were value less, and both found their way into sep arate rubbish boxes. Let children who quarrel and despise each other learn a lesson from this fable. God did not make them to quarrel, but to act and play and live together, just as he made the steel and flint to act to gether in the production of sparks. It is by loving and helping each other that children help one another to grow wiser and happier. When they quarrel and live apart they hurt themselves, and rob each other. Better live in friendship, and then, as the flint and steel by har mony :hake sparks, so they will make their homes bright and beautiful with the holy lights of love and kindness. MRS. PARTINOTON ox FASHION.-"ThOTO is one thing sure," said Mrs. Partingtoo, "the females of the present regeneration are a heap more independent than they used to be. Why I saw a gal to-day, and that I know belonged to the histor ical class of society, with her dress all tucked up to her knees, her hair all buz sled up like as if she hadn't to come it for a week. and one of her grandmother's old caps in an awful crumpled condition. on her head. Why, laws honey, when I was a gal, if any of the fellejle came along when I had my clothes tioltettgp., that way, and my head kivered with au old white rag, why I would ran for dear life. and hide oat of sight. Well, well, the gals then were innocent, anconfisca ted critters; now they are what the French would call ' blazes.' BOIT USING Tonecco.—A strong sen sible writer says a good, sharp thing, and a true one for boys who use tobacco. It has utterly ruined thousands of boys. It tends to softening and weakening of the bones, and it greatly injures the brain, the spinal marrow, and the whole nervous fluid. A boy who smokes early and frequently, or in any way uses large quantities of tobacco, is never known to make a man of much energy, and genera ally lacks muscular and physical as well as mental power. We would particular ly warn boys who want to be anything in the world, to shun tobacco as a most baneful poison, It injures the teeth. It produces an unhealthy state of the throat and lungs, hurts the stomach, and blasts the brain and nerves. I wish I could prevail on neigh bor Binder to keep the Sabbath," said good Mr. Johnson. " I'll tell you how to do it." exclaimed incisive young Smith : "get somebody to lend it to him and I'll be bound that he'll keep it. He was neviir yet known to return any thing that he borrowed."
