A PRINTER’S DECLARATION. In the last number of the Carlisle of a publication fur which they will find ready I Democrat, Gen. Boyer releases himself . from those who have taken his paper, us of the means neec n ssary to feed and clothe the young Naragansells accord ing to our desires. They have combined with others to subject us to the wor.-t grievance*, for* eign to our good nature, and unacknowl edged by our laws. For cutting off our trade with paper makers. For imposing debts upon us without our consent. For depriving us, in many cases of the benefits of maTket money. They have plundered our pockets, cheated our creditors, burnt our fingers, and done sundry other cruel and bar barous acts unworthy the character of gentlemen. In every stage of these oppressions we have pe'itioued in the most humble terms ! our repeated petitions have been answered, only by repeated neglect and consequent injury. Men whose char acters are thus marked by acts which may define a set of plundering scamps are unfit longer to be the recipients of our favor. Nor have we b; en wanting in atten tion to these men; we have warned them from time to time through the paper and by letter of a 4 Black List.’ We have reminded them of our circumstan ces—of our emigration and settlement in Carlisle.- We have appealed to their sense of justice aud magnanimity, and then we have conjured them by all the .ties of good fellowship, to send us the * Almighty Dollar,’ or we would inevit ably interrupt our connection and cor- respondence-with them. But they have been deaf to the voice of reason and hu manity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation, and hold them as we do all others like them, scamps when tifey don’t pay us, when they do, tho best of clever fellows and good citizens. We, therefore, the editor of the Amer ican Democrat, appealing to all honest meu for the rectitude of our intentions, do in the name and by the authority of our 4 belter half’ and nine small chil dren, with one c n the bosom,, solemnly publish and declare these men are, and of right ought to be, stricken from our list of subscribers, and that all connec tion between them and us, is and ought to be, totally dissolved. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of our honest patrons, we solemnly pledge renewed exertions to our pen, our paste pot and noble scissors. A CURIOUS SERMON.—AH! The Brandon (Mississippi) Register, reports the following curious sermon, preached at the town of Waterproofs, not far from Brandon: ‘‘I may say to you, my breethering that I am not an educated man, an 1 am not one o’ them as beleves that edecation is necessary fur a gospel minister, fur {•always ready to fillordersinthe best style.

And then, my breethring tbar’s tho Baptist-ah! and they hev bin likened unto a possum on a simmon tree, and the thunders may roll, and the earth may quake but that possum clings there still- ab !

BOY LOVE. One of the queerest and funniest things to think of in after life, is “boy love.” No sooner does a boy acquire a tolerable stature than be begins toimagine himself a man, and to ape riiftnish ways. He casts sidelong glances at the girls he may meet, becomes a regular attendant at church or meeting, sports a cane, car ries his head erect, and struts a little in his walk. Presently, and how very soon, he falls in love—yes, falls in is the prop er word, because it best indicates bis happy, delirious, self-abasement. He lives now in a fairy region, somewberp collateral to tbe world, and yet, somehow, blended inextricably with it. He per fumes his hair with fragrant oils, scatters essences over his handkerchief; and des perately shaves and anoints for a beard. He quotes poetry in which ‘‘love,” and JAMES M.

He feeds upon the looks of his beloved; is raised to the seventh heave if she speaks pleasantly ; is betrayed into (he most astonishing ecstaciesby a smile, and is plunged in the gloomiest regions of misanthropy by frown. lie believes himself the most devoted lover in the world. Thete never was uch another. There never will be. Me is the one great idolator I He is the very type of magnanimity and self- abnegation. Wealth! he despises the groveling tbouhgt. Poverty, with the adorable beloved, he rapturously apostro phises as the first of all earthly blessings; and ’‘Love in a Cottage with water and a crust,” is the beau ideal paradise of dainfy delights. He declares to himself, with the most solemn emphasis, that he would go thro* fire and water; undertake afpilgrimage to China and Kamschatka; swim storm- tossed oceans; scale impassable moun tains; and face legions of bayonets, but for one sweet smile from her dear lips. He dotes upon a flower she has cast away. He cherishes her glove—a little worn in the fingers—next his heart. He sighs like a locomotive letting off steam. He scrawls her dear name over quires of foolscap—fitting medium for his insanity. He scornfully depreciates the attentions of other boys of his owu age ; cuts Peter Tibbet dead, because he said that the adorable Angelina bad carrotty hair,and passes Harry Bell contemptuouslyjor daring to compare “that gawky Mary Jane,” with bis incomparable Angelina. Happy! happy! foolish boy-Iovu! with its hopes and its fears; its joys and its sorrows; its jealousies, its delights; its raptures and its tortures; its ecstatic fervors, and terrible heart-burnings; its solemn lndicrous '.css, and its intensely prosaic termination. TRUE RICHES. A gentleman one day took an acquaint ance of his upon the top of his house to show him the extent of his posses sions. Waving hishand about, • There, said he, ‘ that is my estate.’ Then pointing to a great distance on one side, ‘ Do yon see that farm ? • Yes,’ * Well that is mine.* Pointing again to the other side— “ Do you see tbat house ?’ * Yes.’ ‘ That also belongs to m Then said his friend, 4 Do you see that little village out yonder.’ ‘ Well, there lives a p >or woman m that village who eau say more than all this.’ ‘ Ah I what can she say 1’ • Why, she can say, Christ is mine He looked confouuded, and said no more, Dr. Marshall Hall, an eminent English physician, says—“ If 1 welre seriously ill of consumption I would live out of doors day and night, except it was rain ing or mid-win'er; then I would- sleep in an unplastered log house.”' He says that consumptives want air; not physic —pure air, not medicated air—plenty of meat and bread, “ Physic has-, nn nutriment, gaspings for air cannot cqre yon ; monkey leapers in ft gymnasium cannot cure you; and stimulants cannot cure.” Shall Pox in Wilkes Countv.— The Republican, of Friday last, states that several cases of Small Pox have oc- curr«ir'|in t he I >wer part of Wilkt a county, about fifteen miles from Washington. Brigham Young, the Mormon, is re puted to be worth nearly $300,000.

During the year Idol cue hundred aud ^sixty-four* men were hung, in tljo United States for murder. Of thi^large number only seven could.read,wjHe.and cipher. One of our exchange papers, speak ing of'the coiididuti's for tbe I.-gi'dalure in one of the counties of Wisconsin, says that J. M. Root is the DetnoCriUic, Robert Hogg the Free Soil, and T. fl.

Meeting a negro on the road, with a crape on his hat, a traveler said “You have lost some of your friends, I see.” Yes, massa.” “Was it a near or dis tant relative ?” ‘‘Well, putty distant— bout ten miles,” was the reply. At a meeting of tbe unmarried prints era, which convened not long since, the following toast was drank in silence: “Woman—Heaven reward her; she is always in favor of a well-conducted Press,” A young thief, who was charged with picking pockets,- demurred to the indict ment, because he had never ’giiCtly picked them—he always took them as they came. a woman’s ballot-box, vi.tea at The cradle is —Lucy Stone.

Perhaps nothing is a surer sign of vuL garity, of breeding; than irreverent bc= havior during attendance upon public worship. Not seldom have out hearts been pained to seeybiitig mehmdmlWilt ingin demeanor, andattcntion lothe service that which was not befitting the audience chamber of the Deity. But when we see this tendency exhibited by young ladies, it argues the shallowness of mind and perverseness of heai t that is appalling. We hr.ve seen young ladies elegantly dressed and hearing all the external marks of respectable parentage and associations, who seemed to confide er the service of the Almi cjiitV as rec quiring no mere attention or reverence than a concert of music.
