THICK OF A HOK.SE THIEF.
The last Iluntsvillu (Ala.,) link-pen-den
says that pu olil inun, who gave
his name as Moore, stopped in that
phce a week or two ago, putting up
ut the Madison llouso. Alter a day
or two's stay, ho gave, out that he
wished to pay a visit to some relations
whom Ik; said lived in Franklin coun
ty, Term. With this seeming inten
tion, (and his ago did not permit of
suspicion of rascality.) he applied at
the livery stable of Air. W. !. Loyd,
for a horse and buggy for the purpose,
stating that he would return in a few
days. The vehicklo was promptly
furnished him, nnd he left on his pro
posed trip, leaving, we, may add, a
week's board bill at the hotel unpaid.
His return was delayed day after day,
until his absence began lo excite sus
picion, and nt last, it became evident
that he did not intend to return at all.
Mr. Loyd, with a parly of friends, then
started in pursuit, and they traced the
old rascal to Dechcrd, on the N. and
C. Hailroad, at which place he had
sold the horse and buggy to a resident
there, and himself made oil' to parts
unknown. The property svas proved
and brought home.
We hipo tho hoary old scoundrel
may be yet overtaken and brought to
punishment. In the mean time, let
the Press pass him around.
Thn Dying Never weep. U is a
striking fact thn dying never weep.
The circle of sobbing, agonized hearts
around, produces not one tear. Is it.
that he is insensible and still' already
in the chill of desolation? That
cannot he: for he asks for his father's
hand, as if to gain strength i.i the mor
tal struggle, and leans on the breast
of mother, brother, or sister, with still
conscious all'ection; ami just before
expiring at eve, after a long day's
converse with the angel of .Summons,
he says to his eldest brother the last
audible good night of earth '-Kiss
me, kiss me!" It must be because the
dying have reached a point Joo deep
lor our earthly crying and weeping.--They
arc face to face with higher and
holier hi ings, with the Father in Hea
ven, and his angel throng led on by the
Son himself, and what art: the griefs
of a morning, tears of a dying fare
well in that vision bright of iinmort il
life and everlasting reunion.
Cany A Thing Through. Carry a
thing through. That's it, don't do any
thing less. If you once fairly, soundly,
wideawake!)' begin a thing, let it be
carried through though it costs your
best comfort, time, energies nnd all
you command. Wo heartily abomi
nate this turning backward, this wea
rying and fainting of soul and purpose.
Jt bespeaks imbecility of min I, want
of character, courage and true mauli
less. Carry a thing through. Don't
Jcap and dally from one thing to an
other. Xn man ever did anything in
(hat way. You can't be strong-minded.
He pluckUh, patient, consistent. Lie
hopeful, stern and manly. Once fairly
in a work, don't give it up, D.m'l
disgrace yourself by beginning on this
thing to-day, on that lo morrow, and
on another next day. We don't care
if you are the most active mortal liv
ing, we don't cure ifyou woJk day and I
night, in season and out, be sura tli j
end of all s-ucccss lies in carrying a
thing through.
Fm'iT Instead of McoicixE.-There is
no doubt but that the free use of good
fruit is highly conducive to health,
and indeed almost indispensable to it.
iUuch of tho sickness in the Western
country is occasioned by the Avant of
it. It is the great scarcity of it that
creates tucb a demand for physic in
oar western eountry. The various
fevers uiul billiotis disorders preva
lent in lire summer season are more
owing to tho want of it than to any
other cause. And not until fruit is
generally cultivated, and used as un
article of diet, shall we bo rid.of those
disorders which arc- sapping the life
lountains of thousands of bur farmers
nnnually. And if fruit wero admin
istered in many cases, as an article of
medicine, instead of the physician's
prescription, wo have no doubt it
would bo far better lor the patient.
Nature in this, as in all other re
spects, has bountifully supplied us
with varieties, whieh, if properly
cared for, will enable us to enjoy a
succession throughout the year. Hut
fruit is not only a necessary of life,
il is one of its great luxuries. What
is more enticing to the palate than
luscious fruit And as an article of
diet nothing equals it. It is easily
raised, costs but little, promotes
health and is lilted by everybody.
Most people! content themselves by
cultivating only two or three varie
ties. This should not be so. Fruit
is more needed throughout the sum
mer season than almost any part of
the year. And the varieties whieh
ripen at this time are least cultivated.
The farmer cannot take n step which
will add more to his own joys nnd to
those of his own family than by hav
ing such a succession as will furnish
him wilh fruit, the enlire year.

I he zealous advocates of a strong ecu -tr.il
government, a consolidation of

enough to render doubtful the experi
