Castoria!

Dr. Samuel Pitcher, of Hyannis; Mass., experimented in his private practice for thirty y'ears to produce a combination that would have the properties of Castorc @il without its unpleasant taste and griping effect. e St

His preparation was sent for, near and far, till finally he gave it the name of Castoria, and put it up for sale. Itis very wonderfulin its eﬂects,‘ particularly with tke Alisordered stomachs and bowels of children. It assimmilrtes the foud. cares-sour stomach and wind colic, regulates the bowels, expels »Worms,' and may he relied upon in croup. e I :

As a pleasant, effective and perfectly safe eathartie remedy it is superjor‘to Castor Oil, Cordials and Syrups. It does not contain alcohol, and is adapted to any age. . e

By regulating the stomach and bowels of cross and sickly chil@¢remn they become good-na-tured and healthy. They can emjoy sleep and mothers have rest. -The Cagtoria is putup a the Laboratory of J. B. Rosg'&- Co., 46 Dey street, New York. ‘. chgr-Iy-9-t¢c

A MIDNIGHT ADVENTURE. 3 8 o Some years ‘a.go,jvh&le journeyinga through the cemfral part of Ohio, a terrible snow Btoym occurred which ‘ so obstructed E‘e toad that several passengers, including myself, were | obliged to find:acgommodations in a small weoden bi\vern situated near by. Afterjsatisfying our ‘Yinner-man” with a 4 warm supper £e congregated around the bar=room fire, and soon were engaged in smoking, ?lling stories, and enjoying ourselves denerally. . ~Among- us was a middle-aged gen--tleman, appargﬂy‘ a merchant, who remained a silent Jistener to the ednversation the fizgt part of the evening. But soon our ?w'abulary of stories was exhausted,®and the gentleman. was politely invited to revive the dropping conversation by telling a | story. He readily accepted the invitation, and told the following, which I give the reader as near as my memory will - permit: A b About twenty years ago, he began, I was connectéd with a wealthy firm in St. Louis, and desiring to visit New Orleans, was entrysted with a consid- | erable sum of ngdney by my employers to be conveyed with all possible haste to a New ONeans merchant.

Early in the moraing I got on board the boat and leaned listlessly over the railing, watching the inhabitants as they < weht forth .to their various occupations. - I hdd not remained in that position long before the steamer .moved slowly away from the pier,and soon the city wasentirely lost to view. During the day n¢thing:transpired to render the voyage disagreeable, and. as the shades of night began to lower over the water, I repaired to the sa‘loon, where several gentlemen were engaged in a rather stormy discussion on politics. Soon I became tangled along with the rest; and'gave my views on the subjects. ‘ * While conversing I thoughtlessly mentioned the fact of my having a large sum of money in my possession. Nothing further was said about it at the time; however, but the thought flashed upon’my mind that in a crowd of despetrate and unprincipled men as were my associates, it was not the right plaee to tell such asecret, which kept me rather backward in my conversation during the remainder of the evening. I retited soon after, fully resolved tp be more prudentin the future: 1 ot :

- The next day I made the acquaintance of a gentleman who professed to be a Metliodist clergyman. 'He gave me several tracts, and soon we entered into a conversation that resulted in quite a friendly intimacy. ~He appeared to be well versed in his profession, and altogether &'very agreeable companion.: After conversing on the various topics of the day, the conversation naturally turned to theprevious evening’s discussion. Not being very well pleased with what had occurred at fhat time, I attempted to change the subject, but was prevented by my friend' remarking: . " “You were very indiscreet, Mr. R—, in revealing the fact that you had money in your possessign. There are men on this boat who \%’i’ould' not hesitate. to rob yowm, if an opportunity presented; therefore I advise you to be more careful hereafter.” . - 1 thanKed him ¥or his kind advice, and assured him that 1 intended to keep aloof from all suspicious individuals. , ‘ To this he made no reply, but ;‘}gse from his seat, and with cane in hand walked leisyrely away to his room, leaving me‘to my own reflections, which were, that I had a good companion and a valuable friend in ‘the preacher. : : ‘On the journey I made the acquaintance of several gentlemen, but none that I valued so much as the clergyman. - Nothing occurred of note after this, and jwe arrived late in the afternoon in New Orleans. Not being acquainted‘in the city, my friend offéred to conduct me to a hotel where my expenses would not be very heavy, and as I wished to spend as little money as possible, I thankfully accepted his company, and we wa'ked up the street several bloeks, when he gave me 'the proper direction to take, while he was obliged to go another way. ; o . S :

Alfter parting with hiny, T wended my way to the hotel, which was sit- | uated a little off from the busy thoroughfare. | It was alarge building, and had a very old aud dingy appearance, and, in fact, did not look very inviting to, the traveler, but as I did not expect to stay only a short time, I concluded to accept the:accommoda--tions, as they were much cheapepthan could be had elsewhere. | S I entered the bar-room, and after | registering my name and €ating a light supper I asked to be showlﬁtoc my rooim, and was conducted up a flight of rickety old stairs to a small square room, where my guide left me. Proceedin%g,r to examine the apartment, I found that it contained one small window, which looked out on a dark back alley. The furniture consisted of a bed, a couple of chairs, a stand, a heavy oaken cupboard, some three feet high and about six feet long,with strong side doors. The appearance of the room did not disperse the gloomy feelings of distrust that I experienced when I first saw the bnilding. However, I determined to make the best of it, while there. . sl " 1 noticed, before coming into the room, that thick masses of clouds | were gradually gathering over the city, and the distant rumbling of thunder, with sharp, quick flashes of lightning, that quivered across the western horizon, depoted an approaching storm.- : o - Being very tired, I immediately disrobed and jumped into bed, and was fast falling into a dreamless slpm‘ber, when a low seratching sound attracted my attention. It s%medto;‘ come from some place in the room, but I could not tell exactly where. My nervousness increased as the sound continued, till I determined to ferret out the cause of the disturbance. I jumped from the bed and looked cautiously around the room for some time, but could discover nothing. The sound -had entirely subsided and nothing could be heard save the wind, which whistled mournfudly by the windows, or the rumbling of the thunder which denoted the approaching storm. , , o At last I concluded it must be the window blind, or some such object ‘driven by the force of the*wind ‘against the house, Arriving at this ‘conclusion, I again jumped into bed, and laid for a long time, vainly en--deavoring to sleep; but finding it imHossible, I busied myself watching the expiring flames of the taper, till astray .gust of wind whistled through the window ard extinguished the object of myatiention... 0 v L 0 ' The storm which had long been threatening, now burst forth in all its wild grandeur. The rolling thunder grew louder at'each sucdéssive report, vivid flashes of lightning darted across the heavens, illuminating tlie room Cwith the [urid flame, so that eyery object was plainly visible; the next nio- | ment pitech darkness vfolww&d?ﬁ%i’i im- | penetrable that the most prominent

objects were perfeetly hidden to the eye. While lying there looking out from under the bed-clothes, trembling with fear, the scratching sound commenced with renewed vigor, making theé room sound with the peeuliar noise which had long before annoyed me.’' i = ;

- Large drops of perspiration stood upon my brow, and, rising to a sitting posture ‘I tremblingly gazed eut into the darkness, trying to discern the obJects as the lightning flashes penetrated the room. -At that momenta livid sheet of radiance passed before me, and in an instant I beheld a man’s armn protruding from the cupboard, while the hand grasped, as for support, the strong oaken door. : :

1 realized my situation immediately, and sprang from the bed. - I grasped a heavy boot which lay near, and | brandishing it over my head, breath- | lessly waited for_the lightning to appear. It was but:a moment ere a livid flash of flame quivered through the air, revealing a head and shoulders of as villainous a looking man -as-I ever before beheld.-The 'left hand supported the creeping form, while the other clutched tightly a large revol- | ver. - The hand was uplifted, and our | eyes met. As quick as thought I | Poun‘ded straight for the rascal. yeling— . 5 L J ciol ; < %You infernal villain!” - ok

- The only answer I received was th sharp crack of a pistol, the ball whist‘{3 ling by and lodging in the wall near me. The next momient the heavy boot came down with a terrible crash on the rascal’s face, making him yell something that I was unable to understand, for ‘a loud peal of thunder drowned the sentence. o 1o

e fiercely struggled to free himself from the cupboard, bt by my repeating the blow, he was obliged to push back into his hiding place,. . {With a movement certainly commendable, I closed the heavy doors, grasped the open structure by the top, and pulled it over upon its face, and sprang upon it, while. the cursing which came from within'could searcely be heard above the. raging of the storm, which kept up an incessant roar. Saree i :

-Uudressed and trembling with fear for one long hour I sat yelling at the top of my voice for assistance, but swas unheard on account of the raging elemen};s without. . . - At last the storm gradually abated, and my [cries were heard by the Irish chambermaid, who came running into the room, but on seeing me in such an unenviable position, she ran frantically down stairs yelling * murder!” with all the vehemenece her. vigorous ‘lungs would permit. This brought to my room a crowd of excited individuals, all eager to find out the disturbance, . i -1 explained the case as well as my shattered faculties would allow, but was frequently interrupted by the blasphemous harangue which the rob‘ber was holding forth within the cupboard. i ‘ :

After concluding, I jumped from my seat and stood a few 'steps away, breathlessly waiting - while my friends, by the aid of a:dim lantern, dragged forth, hatless and bleeding, his locks disheveled, and his face all bespattered with blood, the would be murderer ~—my trusted friend, the preachet. .

The yillain gazed steadily at me, with a sickly smile, which said plainer than words that I was not the first victim. of misplaced confidence. . o A person was immediately sent to inform the authorities, who took him into custody, and afterward sentenced himto a long term in the State penitentiary. , : - Ater the excitement had somewhat abated, I retired and slept soundly for the rest of the night, and was permitted to depart the next morning, thankful that I escaped unharmed from the murderous rascal, and fully resolved never again to'place confidence in an entire stranger, whatever profession he might represent. , iy el E—a Printer’s Dream. i

A printer sat in. his oftice chair, his boobts were patched and his coat threadbare; while his face looked weary and worn with care. .= While sadly thinking of business debt, old Morpheus ‘slowly round him crept, and before he knew it he soundly slept; and sleeping, he dreamed that-’rgxe was dead, from trouble and toil fhis spirit had fled, and that not even’a cow-bell tolled for the peaceful rest of his cowhide sole. As he wandered among the shades that smoke and scorch in low‘er Hades, he shortly observed an iron door, that creakingly swung on hinges ‘ajar, but the entrance was closed with ‘a red-hot bar, and Satan himself stood ;peeping out, and watching for travelers thereabout, and%hgls to the passing printer.spoke: “ Come in, my dear, it. shall cost you nothing, and never fear; this is the place where I cook the ones who never pay their subseription sums; for though in their lite they may eseape, they will find when they are dead it istoo late; I. will show the place where they melt them thin, with red-hot chains and scraps of tin, and also where I comb their heads with scraps of glass and melced lead, and if of refreshment they only think, there is boiling waterifor/them to'drink; there is ‘the red-hot grindstone to grind down the nose, and redhot rings to 'wear on the -toes, and if -they mention they don’t like the fire, I’ll sew up their mouths with red-hot. wire; and, then, dear sir, you should ‘see. them squirm while I.roll them “over and cook to aturn.” ‘With these | last words the printer awoke, and thought it all a practical joke, but still -at times so real did §it; seem, that he can not believe it was all a dream; and oftey he thinks with a‘ chuckle and grin, of the fate of those who save their tin, and never pay the printer. . i , :

TILDEN AND DIX. |

What Mr. Hewlitt Has toSay in Contrasting the War Record ' | of Both. i

“In his speech at the Cooper {Union recently, Mr. Hewitt reviewed at length Gov. Tililen’s war record, and said, in contrasting it with that of exGovernor Dix* = B

}‘, In this hall on the Bth of October, 1860, was held a meeting, over which [‘General',Dix presided, and at which 'he made a speech. On thel7th of Deeember following, in Pine street, was held anoth}‘:r meeting; at which _General Dix was the Chairman of the Comumittee on Resolutions to the peo.%l’e there assembled. I wasone of that adlience, and retember as if it was yesterday that the speech and the fl'égﬁutiogsfby"*'genéml;Dix; and the address prepared to be sent to the. Southern people, were so: ultra in their utterance that I, éven though an old Democrat, openly dissented, saying I.would mnever subscribe to such’ destructive documents. (Applause.) Now, since they have revived thisis-’ sue, let me read to you the resolution ‘which was offered in this hall by Sam- { uel J. Tilden (cheers) on the'Bth of October, 1860, when these venomous adversaries charge him with having been a secessionist and disunionist. Here is his'language. I take it from the Tribune of Oct. 9,1860: .=~

“Samuel J. Tilden then read the following resolution: ° o “ Resolved, That we regard the attempt of a seetional party in the Northern States to take possession of the federative agency of all the States, adversely to the whole' people of the fifteen Southern States, as ¢ontrary to the fundamental idea of thie constitution; that we deem it to be an imperative duty to waive personal ?re,fe,_r-_‘ ences as.to the candidates and idifferences upon abstract questions'in favor of a union of patriotic citizens for the sake of a Union of the States. (Cheers.) - oy c "That was Samuel J. Tilden’s utterance. (Cheers.) Now,l hold in my hand the resolutions and spee¢h which General Dix utteréd at the meeting of the 17th of December, in Pine street. I will only read a portion of the resolutions and of the address: : h

. “Resolved, That the delivery of fugitive slaves to their masters is an obligation enjoined by the constitution, in which all good citizens are beund to acquigsce. e “ Resolved, Thatiwe pledge ourselves to uphold these principles by all the means in our.power; to'seek by all practical efforts a reddress; of the wro;;gs of which the Southern -States justly complain.- " . . o

Resolved, That while we deplore the existing excitement in the Southern States, we do not hesitate to.say that there is yust ground for it.” <

TFrom the adress of General Dix on’ that occasion, which is of the same general'character, 1 make the fofl,lowq‘f ing extracts: « - e o * The object of .this- meeting ‘s to see whether somé measures may not be devised to arrest hasty and inconsiderate action in the South: until we can consult together for a redregs of their ogrievapces. * . * = - - Wedo uot despair of securtng from those to whose hands the reins of government are about to be intrusted, a recognition of your rights in regard to the surrender of fugitive slaves and equality in the Territories. * * I.“We stand on the grounds of an address published in May last in this city, viz: e L

“The republican party 'cannof possibly remain .unbroken during the term of the incoming administration. # % % VWrongas the action of eight or nine States in passing laws calculated to embarrass the surrender of fugitive slaves was, it has been practically, nugatory; their _enact: ments have wrought in practice the injury. of furnishing an example of infidelity to‘constitutional obligation.’ Any violation of your constitutional rights by the ineoming administration, if it were attempted, would meet with as prompt and determined a resistance here as it would from yourselves. ‘We desire to be distinctly understood that we speak with full knowledge.

* “If the events shall prove that we have over-stated our own ability to procure a redress. of existing wrongs, or the disposition of others to concede what is due to you, a 8 members of a confederacy, who/ can only be preserved by equal justice to all;.let 1%, when all the efforts of patriotism shall have proved unavailing, when the painful trust shall have foreced itself on the conyiction that our common brotherhood can be no longer maintained in the mutual .confiden in which its whole value gbnsists;—-icg a word, when reconciliation shall hayv becoms hopeless, and it shall bg. manifest (which may God forbid!) thac our future paths must lie wide apart, let: us do all that becomes reasonable men toisbreak the force of so great a calamity by parting in peace.” . Now' General Dix calls Samuel J. Tilden to judgment. I call General Dix to judgment (cheers), and in calling General Dix to judgment I call the whole:of that erew of partisans, bit ter, unconverted Republicans ints Union men to judgment with him. (Cheering.) They were Union-savers then® what are they now? (“Coffeecoolers”—laughter and applause;) .

AN INDIAXN’S LAST SHOT.

~ On Monday, August 11, four men, iwhile out hunting, about two miles ! from. Deadwood, killed a deer, and, - while they were gkinning it, one of them saw an Indian approaching them, leading his pony. He was probably trying to surprise them, but, being un-. certain of their exact position, he had aproached too near, and they discovered him. first. One of the ‘party.‘snatehed up his shot-gun, loaded with buckshot, and firgd both bartels,bring‘ing down the Indian andl his pony. The confident manner in which 't;h}e Jlndian walked toward them, had led them to suppose that he was supporty’ ed by a number of others, and so they quickly retreated toward Deadwood i for re-enforcements. | A party started ° out to scout the country, and on reach‘ing the spot where the deer’ lay, the ‘men saw the body of the Indian by the side of his pony, and, thinking him dead, rushed forward. 'This action was fatal:to one of the party; for a ‘shot from the Indian’s rifle struck him . “in the heart,” A volley from the others kilied the Indjan instantly, however, and his body was jquickly surrounded by white men. The Indian had been almost riddled with buck: shot, one.shoulder /and both legs having been brokenfy?t he managed to bandage his legs and take unerring: aim with his wounded arm. - Knowing | ‘that liig life would e taken | without doubt, he had prepared to sell it as doarly as' possible, and lying on_ his back, he rested his rifle on his wound- ; ed le: Wld shot.dead the foremost of | ‘his agsailants, <ln his mouth was ans ’othel{cértriﬂge ready to reload.
