This number closes the third volume of the. Democrat. "We embrace the opportunity thus afforded to tender our most grateful acknowledgments to those kind friends nd co-laborers who hare patronized and jxn'J us. Aa our necessities hare been, and are, great, such solid wishes for our present and future prosperity, will not soon be forgotten. But unto the 'delinquent what shall we say? ' Alas! we know not, unkss it be a few words of warning, or soma kind adyice, that might bo well for them - to give heed unto. Some of them li are taken our paper for lo! these three years, and hare paid nothing; we hare frequently called upon them to call on us, but up to the present writing have "failed to come to time." Vre could 6tand this Tery well for two or three years, but when it come3 to making a general thing of it, wo protest! Daring the past year, we hare beseeched them hare tried to 'scare 'em but tho 'mastelly inactirity' which they 'preserved, was truly aransing to any one less interested than ours Ives. Now, we declare and publish, that every ubscriber'j came, who is owing for the first and second volumes, will be erased from our books, and the accounts left with the proper officers for collection, if not paid by the first day of February, 1859. Our pecuniary circumstances are such! that w cannot afford to furnish a paper three, five or tan years wi.hcut any pay. This may appear rery Strang to some; yet, our experience has clr.rly demonstated its truthfulness to our minds. It would give us much pleasure to receive and receipt for all tho amounts due us from those living in and about town, during the coming week. We have done our part, and we call upon all indebted to pay up! J"Tiie Lady's Home Magazine for December, is a perfect gem. and should be in the possession of every lady in christenendom. T. S.

pressive affair. A large number of people witnessed it from the street and from windows and house tops. One paper says:— The coffin which contained the body stood beside the passage to the door in the room where he met his death, and as the people who had gathered in the house passed out, every one had an opportunity to view the corpse. The body was dressed in the police uniform, with standing collar and black cravat. The lid of the coffin, which was plain, bore the simple record, inscrib, [sic] ed on a silver plate in the shape of a heart: 'Robert M. Rigdon. Died: Nov. 8, 1858. Aged 37years .'The coffin was ornamented with silver handles, and nails of the same meterial [sic], and on the lid, which laid back, revealing the face of the deceased, was a bouquet of fresh roses. The sobs of the bereaved wife, during the ceremony were audible, and the sight brought tears into the eyes of the spectators. The <American> says the 'punishment of the murderers must be swift and certain. Their fearful and abhorrent crime must be expiated with their lives. The supremacy of the laws, the welfare of the community, the personal safety of every citizen, demands it.'—— Public sentiment will permit no other result.' The convict Gambrill has published a card, denouncing the murder of Rigdon. He says: 'Much as I love that dear father who clung to me with all the tenacity of a parent's love during my recent trial, I would have preferred his death by violence to that of the victim of last Friday evening.' ———<>——— RACE BETWEEN A MAN AND A HORSE. Last Thursday there as a race between Mr. Adams and the horse Hector, owned in North Adams, on the agricultural grounds in this town; the horse to trot one mile and 400 yards, and the man to walk half a mile, best two in three. The first heat was won by the man, who came in about ten rods ahead. Time—3:46. The second heat was won by the horse by about the same distance. Time—3:20.— The third heat was won by the man in 3:10, nearly distancing the horse.—<Northampton (Mass.)

The Good Wife Who Foüd 'Good ix Evertthixq. A farmer was once blessed with a goed natured, contented wife; but it not being in the nature of man to be satisfied, ho one day said to a neighbor, he really wish ed he could hear his wife scold once, for the novelty of the thing. Whereupon a sympathizing neighbor advised him to" go to the woods and get a load of crooked sticks, which would certainly make her as cross as he could desire. ..Accordingingly. the farmer collected a load of the meet ill shaped, crooked, erotchety mate rials that were ever known under the name of fuel. This he deposited in its place, taking care that his spouse should have access to no other wood. Day after day passed without a complaint At length the pile was consumed. Well, wife,' said the farmer, 'I am going after more wood; I'll get another load just such as I got last time.'. 'Oh.yes, Jacob, 'she replied, 'it will be so nice if you will: for such crooked, crotchety wood ab you brought before does lie around the pot ao nicely.' , The advocates of Free Love could not ask the enactment of a statute more favorable to their views than the present divorce laws. Mormon polygamy is better, for that at least compels tho husband to provide for and protect his numerous wires. The latter part of a man's life is taken lip in curing the follies, prejudices and false opinionsjie has contracted in the former. Dr. Biglow, a celebrated physician in Boston, savs: 'I sincerely believe that the unbiased opinion of most medical men of sound judgment and long experience is made up, that the amount of death and disaster in the world would be ess, if all disease was left to itself, than it now is, under the multiform, reckless, and contradictory mode of practice .

Brown came up and taking tho Parson by the hand, iomarked: How do you do, brother Brownlow! I am happy to see you.' The courtesy was returned, when tho Governor continued: 1 I hope you will be moderate in all your notions of propriety in regard to your fellow-citizens, and live a good christian.
