In-order turall the reader aMentinn nwre par
ticularly to iherri, I hve italicized umic of the
eentencea irrthe foregoing extracts. I cnuSraia.
t ion of Gov.findley'a opinion, th.U i ho punish
ment of criminals in a Peniretiliary would be less
bnrthrnsotite to the community, I would here
aute, that in one county, by referenre to tho re
cords, I ascertained tlist ikn charge on the Cun
iy for maintaining its convicts in the coun'y jail
averages something like $200 per annum. For
one individual who was convicted of what should
be i Penitentiary offencethe counly hid the sum
of $390 to pay foe maintaining him in prison as a
punishment, for his crima. Mr. Elliott, iu his
' Report on a 4'enitenMbry, estimates the animal
Charge on the Slate for the maintenance of its con.
vieli at $15,000. Should this be considered too
large an estimate, yet we knowi there is a round
euro paid for the ittftiiiciton of having a number
of able bodied fellowe wrapped op in blankets and
coiled down in the corners nf dark, loathsome
dangeone, where tbey are deprived of all-the
means by which they could benefit themselves,
their families, or the community at large Take
any view you may of the policy which confines
.convicts iu the common jail as a punishment nf
their crime, and you will find abundant reasons
for its modification. It is no cry light btirihen
for. the people of each county to be taxed $200
annually that ita criminals may be housed up in
useless idleness. And if a person before being
thus confined, was predisposed to get his living
by other means than that of honest industry, such
confinement would only strengthen and confirm
bisiaiy propensity. ...
For fear of extending this communication to
too great ; length, I must content myself with ma
king extracts from the Messages of Gov. More

As UNEXPECTED BCT JOTTl'l. MEETING. A
gentleman residing near Micilxmnifjli, in this
county, some days since, went to New York to
get a hand to work for bun on his farm- He
chanced to have recommended to him a young
nun wbn had just emigrated from Germany, 'and
through hired persons, (aa the German could not
speak English.) he engaged ro work with linn, and
brought the young nun over to his residence. At
dusk the gentleman sent to a neighbor for a Ge r
man ..who had been working there a fang time,
havingeinigrted from Germany many years since,
and whose steady habit had, as much as any
thing, influenced him in retaining the young tnan,
to come and talk wi h the new work hand. The
Gentian who waa sent for, came and seated him
self by tbe fire, back of the o her, whnwas drink
ing hia tea. The family were waiting for 'he
meal to ba finished, expecting to hear some regu.
lar Dutch tale ; nordid they wait in vain, for the
moment the young man turned from the table
his eyes wVre fixed on tho other German. Both
stood a moment regarding each other and then
rushed into each ober'a arms they were broth'
ers. and had met for the first time in many years !
Tbe kind feeling, the unbounded joy. the re
peated embrace,' were wost by of lovers. These
two honest Dutchmen did talk real Dutch that
night, and will probably do mo a long tune, aa tbey

great injury I To yourselves you are lining

; We would urjre then upon Cotton planters

less. Cotton. The season is fast approaching
when the "seed will he sown'' and ajoir is
-the time when the Cotton lands are being

.TxiaESTiiiENCi! Pu.NistiED. We find in the N
V. Courier dee Knits L'nis an account of a cari
ous incident which occurred at a charity fair in
Paris. A young lady. Mies A, celebrated
for her beauty snd her wit, presided at one of
the tables. Amonat the thmng which pressed s
round the fair vender of elegant fancy articMs,
was a young gentleman of muctTflssuranee, who
gazed, upon the young lady with oflViihive free
dotn. and affected to admire the various sottclea
exported for sale : but who bought nothing
"What will you please to' buy, sirl" aked
Miss A , wbh a smile of peculiar meaning.
"Oh,"' replied the exquirite, with a ianguifh
ini; look," what I inoul with to purcliase is un
happily not for !."
" Perhaps it is," said the lady.
"Oh, no, 1 dare not declare my wishes..'
Nevertheless," slid Miks A , "let
me know what you wiim to liny."
" Well, then, since you insrnt upon i f should
like a ringlet of your glossy blank hair."
The lady manifesleii mi embarrassment at the
bold request, but with n;r of scissors immedi
ately clipped offone of her beautiful locks, and
bunded it to-the astonished youth, remarking that
the price, was Jlre hundred franc .'
jler bold admirer was thunderstruck at this
demand, bm dared pot demur, as by this lime a

A coon 'cn A man named Bently was a
most confirmed drunkard, but would never drink
with a friend, or in public, and always bitterly
denied when caught a little too steep, ever tast
ing liquor! One day some' bad witnesses con
cealed themselves in tiis room, and when the
liquor was running down his throat, seized him
with bis arm crooked and his mouth open, and
holding him fast, asked him with an air of tri
umph Ah Bently. have we caught you at last
you never drink, hat"" Now one would sup
nosed that Bentlev would have acknowledged
the rorn. Not he ; with the most grave face
imaginable, he calmly and in a dignified manner
said, "Gentlemen, my name is not Bontly !"

Quits Rational A man, residing in a New.
England town, at some distance from a hear eel
ative, received a message one Cold evening in
November to hasten lo his residence, as he was
in a dying stale.- When he arrived, he was told
that his friend was a little better, but that his
reason had entirely left him. The sick msn
presently turned his head, laying in a faint voice
"Who is that I"
He was informed that it was his relative who
had been sent for.
"0!i ah I" said lie; "yes oh, yes! He
must be a-cnld. Mal;e him a good, warm toddy

Life Insurance We are gratified to hear
that Mr. John Thornton, whose sudden death was
reported in our paper of yesterday, effected an
insurance on his life for 2000 dollars, on the 23d
of last month, at the office Of the New York Mu
tual Benefit Life Insurance Co. He has left a
young wife and five children, to receive the ben.
e fit of his thoughtfulness. We learn that Mr.
Thurnton was respected as an industrious and
worihy citizen, and by paying about 35 dollars in
cash, he has secured 8000 dollars to hia bereav
ed family. These offn-ea are a blessing to the
widow and fatherless, in their distress.
