There is no denying the faet that a venr general, periiape not al- ways openly expressisd, opinion pre- vails thronghoat the eonunumty that s further investigation should be in* stitnted. In view of tLus fact il is the duty of the Directors without delay to order such further investigation as the na- ture and exigency of the ease demand.

In order, therefore, to restore public confidence and to satisfy those friends of the Society who have given assistance so gener- ously in the past, it is highly desir- able that a further investigation of the accounts of the Society should be had. Of course, if the Directors fail to do their duty in this respect, the next annual meeting will not likely fail to note the fact and apply the needed remedy, viz A radical change in the Directorate and a thorough in- vestigation.

Deab Sib, â€" Will you kindly allow me, one of the injnred ones, space to reply to the insinuations of an "old maid" whose letter appeared iu the Stanoabd of Jane 24^U. This maid of nineteen sommers (as she says) is, in my estimation if a maid at all, twice, or perhaps more than twice, nineteen, whose hopes of ever possessing (that boon of all earth- ly happinefa) a man is utterly blight- ed therefore, to have satisfaciion some way she vents her spite ou the nobler sex. I for oue hope it will be the means of easiug her poor heart. I cannot conceive, my dear sir, how any lady of the tender years of nine- teen could use such language towarcis men or have the experience she re- lates of the opposite sex. She seems very anxious to have her sentiments brought before the public, anu in a way that is intended to preju lice the minds of younger ladies than herself, against the very beings she would give her eye-teeth to possess.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT GARFIELD, On Saturday last, the whole world 'was thrown into deep sorrow at the report flashed over the wires, that an attempt had been made in cold blood, to assassinate the President of tho United States. No possible reason that we can see lead to the atrocious act. No more genial, talented and impartial states- man ever filled the chair of President of the United States. The high es- teem la which be was held the world over, is tbown by the messages of sympathy and sorrow that have been sent to him from aU quarters of the globe. It ii asserted by some that tho cowardly seoundel who perpetrated the deed ia insane, and was lead to the act from a desire to giin notoriety. Others again say it is the result of a deep laid plot by certain wire-pullers, to get the Presiient oiit of their way as he was too straiirhtforward and iionocable to suit their purposes. For the sake of hnraaoity we sincerely trust the 'first is the oorreet theory. At the tirae of writing the President ia still alive and hopes are now being entertained ot his ultimate recovery.

A little girl, four years old, belonging to a farmer, wjio was run away with in the moantains the other day while her father got out ol the waggon to get a drink â€" at the spring. As she was one of twelve daughters, he hated to spoU the 83t, and so pushed on after her, but with little hopes of overtaking the frighten- ed animal. Presently he fouui the horse right on the edge of a precipice unable to more one incE. One e.Lid of the strap had caught round bis fet- lock,tlie other end round a tree and held him tight. When the farmer went to pull on the strap he jumped about ten feet, for a rattle suake was holding the horse. It had wound its tail around the horse's leg, its neck was turned three tiines round a sap- ling.and its teeth where fast ia the wood. It was twelve foet long, for the farmer measured it, A fow pounds more strain would have snapped tne snake clear in t«ro. The snake wasn't over five feet long really, for when the farmer took the strain off it came right back to its natural size, for the Buakn is a very elastic animal. The child wasn't frightened in tho least. This story must be true, tor the farm- er was there and saw it all, and »ayt it is true. He wanted four copies of the paper â€" the Vanun Appeal â€" if it published the item, to S3ud to his re- latives in tbe East. We take the lib- erty of extending the information to his acquaintances in the other paits of the country. Those who know him best and admire him most wdl be glad to hear that he is doing so well out in Nevada. The Southern papers are lull of wonders and freaks of nature. The Louisville Courier-Journal contained recently a marvellous tale about the mother of seven children at a birth, and now we read in a South Carolina paper of a lawyer who charged a fee for his services which his client de- clared was exorbitant. Finally the lawyer said "Well, uir. you know me well enough-t© know that while I do not overcharge my clients, 1 hold my- self professionally bound not to under- bid my brethren of the profession. I shall not sue yon, for you are my old riend as well as a client, and the mat- ter is loft entirely to yonr own discre- tion." The next day the client paid the amount he deemed just, and en getting a receipt handed the lawyer a note and departed. The note ex- pressed his thanks and gratitude ft i the able manner in winch his cEe had been conducted, and along with this note was a handsome amount which he begged his courftel to accept from him as a mark of his esteem, ereat regard and gratitude. These newspapers must not tax the public credulity too far. the this â- Â»Â«fltotly in- A Mmnesota sohodl teacher who was in tho habit of making lov» to his pupils, was sued by one of them for breach o f promise.
