I J is beloved, though hppnrtntly joyful and cheerful while convertirg with him, a soon ns the conversation lagged, relapsed into the melancholy mood.

The money spent for otic newspaper a year, where tin re are children jut commencing to read, we consider woith ns much its twice that amount paid for schooling. The dill'dence in families where n newspaper is, and where one is not taken, is pciceiv thle to any one whoever pys any ntten tion to the wa)s of tho world. -Where i newspaper is a weekly, visitor in a family, the children arc more intelligent they can talk with more freedom and more confidence in themselves Ihey know what is going ou in the world they know all about the movements of the Texiau and Mericau armies they know who is elected President, and to Congress, and to the State Legislature and, in fact, it is the most perfect index of whal is goinjj on from one end of the universe to the other. While, on the other hand, go into a family where a newspaper is not taken, and commence a conversa tion with the younger members of it, and you will be asked a thousand questions that every body ought to know. Tell them that tb Tennes see Volunteers have whipped the Seminoles, and you will .probably hear the exclamation, "la! I diden't know Ihey were fighting." Speak of tho Presidential election, and they will probably not know what you mean by the word President of the wnr In Texas, and more than likely Ihey will not know there is such place in the world as Texas.. Is it not thedutv. we humbly aslr, ot every pa rent to reflect on these things ( no man would hesitate n moment to pay -. ... ... the small sum a newspaper costs, if he knew the benefits resulting from it. From the Western ,tioneer. TRUTH IS STRANGER THAtf FICTION. Under this omnious head, the Ham ilton Gazette published at Stevens burnt), Ind.i gives the following nar rative. "In June, 1833, there arrived at Stevensburgh, a laboring man about 35 years of age. who soon after engaged himself to take charge of the farm of Samuel Jamel, Esq. of this

villagc.-He represented himself to oe

irom Urange county, Wew York, by name, Alexander Jackson. After living with Mr. James until January, 1834, he purchased a farm about nine miles distant from this place, and shortly afterwards offered his band in marriage to.n young woman who resided in Mr. James familynn adopted daughter of Mr. J. in fact she went by the name of Sarah James, and no penon in this vicinity knew, until recently, but that she was a natural daughter of that gentlemaa. Mr. Jame objected to the match-but Jackson represented himself as a rela tion of the President of the United States and being a good looking, and withal nn intelligent ptrrson', Miss J. was pleased with him, and urged her father to consent to their marriage. In the May following they wera married, and .Mr. James gave Jackson a haiidiome farm, adjoining his ow n, S. ii uh's portion on which Jackson built him n house, and -they lived very happily together. Since their mariiagi, Airs. J. has borne her husband two tine boys, the youngest being at present but two months old. But lei us give the hif-tory of Jaekson, as now discovered by his own confession, and by the appearance of a per' son in thii community, who has turned all his domestic Joys into a cup of bitterms, and tendered his poor wife henrt-brekcu. In the tirst place, then bis name is not Alexander Jackson, (and for the piesent we shall suppress nil real name ) During his boyhood he became the father ol a female child the mother being uf respectable parentage, and as it now appears, a relative of our respected townsman, whom J.icUmmi ha tuthei to called father inlaw. He s.'Oii left the scene of his (igracc, which is in Orange county, N. V., and ..f.erw.-rd fjr many years l.vcd in the ' icii ity of Albany, where the individuil who now exposed l.tm knew him by his real n.nnc. Hit name w s abo w ell know n to Mr. .l imes as the father of his adopted daughter. Judge tiitn ef the aony ! uf all pirlics, wnett. il became, known j lhal tne biauttlul Sarah Jamsf, was a j 0 ,tur ,l daghter if Mr. J. that she had I discovered in her hi'sbanJ. her own jfhtr! Truth is indeed stranger tkari ui.iin iui i:n i uui n rnnpic iiarra ti Vc of lacts- So ullHchod Was tho daughter to her ortn f-iiher, that it w as with mm li difi'Kiiliv s!i.. was persuadcJ to returnrto the house of Mr. James. J.itksjn has sold his own farm and does-not now how himself in the village, though it is believed that be still visits iWr. James' family. It is said that all the parties will rood leave this part of the country, so deep i men gnei cuu uisgrace. Air. ames is a justice of the peace, and a awycrofsome eminence, though he is not at present in full practice. We are induced to give these sor rowful facts publicity, inconsequence of divers unfavorable reports in circulation again?t our, esteemed fellow citizen, Mr. James, as well as Jack son. These reports we will not re peal the narrative above given being all-suiticient to contradict them. TO THE LADIES. John Neal, in one of his rhap sodies, says: There is no mis fortune so great for a family of girls, as to be all beautifull and all unmarried at oncfe. They are sure to wane, perish die of loneliness and ill humor. If one half of them was as Ugly as ugliness useii, anotner quarter just passable, and the remainder all unlike each other,' with only one beauty, the whole might get mar ried at last, So, ladies depend upon it, if there are many of you! marriageable, of not. my adviee to you is plainly this, draw lots and honorably; and blow up all you faces with powder, except one. 13 ut if that be too terrible,' take the small pox. H is your only chance. In a few years too; you will assuredly be the more agreeably of the two you will have mind in the winter hour; when the personal beauty of a woman is like the shadow that hath gone some thing that nobody will take the trouble to ruri after even in thought.
