HE DIED POOR. “It was a sad funeral to me/’ said the speaker, “the saddest I have attended for years " “That of Emundson?” “Yes.” • “How did he die?” " “Poor—poor as poverty; his life was one long struggle with the world, and at every disadvan tage. Fortune marked him all the while with gilded promises.that were, alas, destined never to know fulfillment.” “Yet he was patient and enduring," remarked one of the company. “Patient as a Christian,—enduring as a martyr,” was the answer. “Poor inan, he was worthy of a i better fate. He ought to have succeeded, for he deserved success.” “Did he not succeed?” questioned the one who had spoken of his perseverance and endurance. “No, sir; he died poor as I have said. Nothing that he put his hands to ever succeeded. A strange fatality seemed to attend every enterprise.” “1 was with him in his la.st moments,” said an- )thcr, “and thought he died very rich.” I “Xo, he has left nothing behind,” was replied. 1 "The heirs will ha%e no concern as to the admin- i.stration of the estate.” I “He left a good name,” said one, “and that is ! something.” j “And a legacy of noble deeds that were done ! in tho name of hmnanity,” SMid another.

A sad funeral, did you say? No, my friend, it was rather a triumphal procession! Not the burial of a human clod, but the ceremonial attendant on the translation of an angel. “Did not succeed'. Why his whole life was a series of successes. In every conflict he came off the victor, and now the victor’s crown is on his brow. Any grasping, soulless, selfish man, with a share of brains, may gather in money, and learn the art of keeping it, but not one in a hundred can bravely conquer in the battle of life as Ed- mundson has conquered, and step forth from the ranks of men, a Christian hero.” Fayetteville, N.

D. & W. McLAURIN. fore the Tuesday of the Snperior Court, the HOUSE March 3. 1850 ?^3tf : and LOT on Ramsay str-et, formerly occupie*! as the J StHsiUe Landlord.—An exchange says: ! A little incident transpired some weeks ago, at j one of our Frankfort hotels, which is worthy of ! notice. i A little girl entered the bar-room, and in I pitiful tones told the keeper that her mother had sent her there to get eight cents. ‘Eight cents!’ said the keeper. ‘Yes, tir.’ ‘What does your mother want with eight oenta*. I dont owe her anything.’ , ‘Well,’ said the child, ‘father spent all his I money here for rum, and we have bad nothing to eat to-day. Mother wants to bny a loaf of bread.’ • A loafer remarked to the bar-keeper to ‘kick the brat out’ ‘No,’ said the bar-keeper, ‘I’ll give her the money, and if the father craies back again I’ll kick him out.’ Pints ag Inoth-Pickt.—There are in all lati tudes, we believe, persons who daily and hourly pick their teeth with pina. The practice is ex ceedingly injurious, and should be wholly ignored. A Virginian exchange tell us, there is now a lady in that city suffering terribly from this practice. She had the habit of picking her teeth with pins. A trifling humor was the consequence, which terminated in cancer. Pins are always perni cious to the teeth, and should never be used ibr tooth-picks.—Petersburg InteUigencer. Objections to « large ^Salary.—Ministers in our day rarely object to an increase of salary, but we find in an exchange a capital story of an old Connecticut pastor, who declined it for very sub stantial reasons: His country parish raised his salary from three hundred to four hundred dollars. The good man objected for three reasons. “First,” said, he, “because you can’t afford to give more than three hundred.” “Second, because my preaching isn’t worth more than that.” ‘‘Third, because I have to collect my salary, which, heretofore, has been the hardest part of my labors among you. If I have to collect an additional hundred, it will kill me.” Niphon. the name given t»y the Japanese to titeir country, means ‘‘the rising of the sun.” They know uothing of the word Japan, and do iiol use it. They call their country Niphon, be cause it is the mcst easterly point of Asia.
