Ifl-mn U ({orjiait. JQwdqy Morning, November 8 IT IS DANGEROUS TO CHEAT THE PRINTER. The “ Roanoke Times" publishes the following bit of rhyme, evidently from tho pen of some fellow mortal who justly appreciates tho great sin of cheating the printer: % nian who cheats the printer ' Duit' of a single cent, Will never reach the heavenly land Where old Elnijuh went. lie will not gain admittance there, , J3y. devils he’ll be driven, And made to loaf his time away Outside the walls of heaven. Without n man to greet him, Without a pleasant grin, The happiness that he will reach Will he almighty thin. lie’ll have to eat the thistle Of sorrow and regret, He’ll have to buck around right smart With cussed ness, “ You bet!” SUFFERINGS SF DESERTERS, GREAT DISTRESS AT REA. The following singular narrative of the sufferings attending six deserters from tthe artillery of St Helena, was related before a Court of Inquiry ninny years ago, on oath, by John Brown, «ne of the survivors: ?* In June, 1709, I belonged to the first company of artillery, in the ser vice of the garrison ; and on the 10th of that mouth, about half an hour be fore parade time, McKinnon, gunner, and orderly of the second company, oskod me if I was willing to go with him on board an American ship, the Columbia, Capt. Lelar, the only ship then .in the roads. After some con versation, I agreed, and met him about seven o’clock at the play-house, Inhere I ^nd one McQuin, of Major Searfe’s companv; another man called Brigbouse, another named Parr, and the sixth Matthew Conway. Parr was a good seaman, and said he would take us to tho island of Ascension, or lay off the harbor till the Columbia Could weigh anchor and come out. Brighouse and Conway proposed to cut a whale-boat from out of the har bor, to prevent the Columbia from be ing suspected; which they effected, having therein a coil of rope and five oo/s, with a large stone she was moored by: this happend about eleven at night. Wc observed law thorn passing on the line toward the sea gate, and hearing a great noise, thought we were missed and searched for. We immediately embarked in the whale boat, with about twenty-five pounds of bread in a bag, a small keg of water, supposed to contain about thirteen gallons, and a compass given • to us by the commanding officer of tlie Columbia. Wc then left the ship, pulling with two oars only, to get a- head of her; the boat was full of water, and nothing to bail her out. In this condition we rowed out to sea, and lay off the island a great distance, expect ing the American ship hourly. About twelve o’clock, the second day, no ship appearing, by Parr’s advice, we bore away, steering N. by W. and then N.N. W. for the island of Ascension, using our handnerchicfs as substitutes for sails. ’ “ We continued our course till about the 18th in the morning, when we saw a number of birds, but no land ; about twelve that day, Parr said he was sure that we must have passed the island, ac- CQUUting it must be eight hundred miles from St Helena. Then wc each of us took our shirts, and with them made a small spritsail, and laced jackets and trowscr together, to the Waistband, to keep us warm, ami then (altered our course to W. by N., t’niak- ■ mg to moke Rio do Janeiro, on the . American cost. Provision running . veiy short, wc allowed ourselves one ounce of bread for twenty-four hours, and two mouthfuls of water. We con tinued till tho 26th, when all our pro visions weret expended. On the 27th $]^Quin<ook a piece of Kim boo in his igiouth to chew, we all followed his example. On that night, it being my turn to steer the - boat, and remember ing to have read of persons in our situ- op eating.their shoes, 1 cut a piece ; one of mine; but, it 1 icing soaked Salt water, I was obliged to spit ‘ft blit; and take the inside, which I eat g pnrt of, but found no benefit from it. •|Oii the 1st of July, Parr caught a dol- iin .with a gaff that had been left in e boat Wc all fell on our knees, and thanked God for his goodness to v«i. We toro up the fish, and hung tt to dry; about four wc eat part of it, which agreed with us pretty well. On this fish we subsisted till tho 4th, about eleven o’clock, when finding the whole expended, l>ones and all, Parr, Jnyself, Brighouse nnd Conway, pro- / posed to scuttle the boat, nnd let her go down, to put us out of our misery; the other, two rejected, observing, that Clod who had made man always found something to eat. On the 8tli, about eleven, .M’Kinnon proposed that it would be better to cast lots for one of ,, ( pa todie.jn order to save the rest; to which wc consented. The lots were made. William Parr, being sick two days before with the spotted fever. Was excluded. It was agreed that . No. -5 should die, and the lots being ; unfolded, M’Kinnon was No. 5. Wo had ogroed that he whose lot it was, tV fchould ble-d himself to death; for which purpose we had provided our selves with nails sharpened, which wc - from the boat. M’Kinnon, with ; of .them, cut himself in three 2 ' 'in his foot, hand and wrist, j Gow to forgive him, died in a I'ijinirter of an hour afterward. Before be was quite cold, Brighouse, with one of those nails, cut a piece of llcsa off his thigh and huug it up, leaving his body iu the boat; about three hours after we all eat of it only a very small piece, this piece lasted us till the 7th. We dipped the body every two hours into the sea to preserve it. Parr hav ing found a pidcc of slate in the bottom of the boat, lie sharpened it on the other large stone, and with it cut an other piece off the thigh, which lasted us till the 8th; when it being my watch, and observing the water, about break of day, to change color, I called the rest, thinking wc were near shore, hut saw no land, it not being quite daylight. “ As soon as day appeared wo dis covered land right ahead, and steering toward it, about eight in the morning we were close to the shore. There being a very heavy surf, we endeavor ed to turn the boats head to it, but, !icing very weak, we were unable. Soon after the boat upset; myself, Conway and Parr got on shore. Mc Quin and Brighouse were both drown ed. We discovered a small hut on tho beach, in which was an Indian nnd his mother, who spoke Portu guese, and I understanding thatlangu- age, learnt that there was avllage about three miles distant, called Belmont. This Indian went to the village, and gave information that the Freneh had landed, and in about two hours the governor of the village, a clergyman, with several armed men, took Conway and Parr priseners, tying them up by their hands and feet, and slinging, them on a bamboo stick ; and in this manner took them to the village. “ I being very weak, remained in the hut some time, but was afterward taken. On our telling them wo were English, we were iinmediatly released, and three hammocks provided. We were taken in them to the Governor’s house, who let us lay on his own lied, nnd gave ns milk and rice to eat; not having eaten anything for a consider able time, wo were loekjawed, and con tinued so till the 23d ; during which time the Governor wrote to the Gover nor of St. Salvador, who sent a small schooner to a place called Port Sequro, to take us to St. Salvador. We con tinued there about thirteen days, dur ing which time the inhabitants made up a subscription of £20 each man. Wc then embarked in the Maria, and arrive! I at Rio, from whence I came to St. Helena.” From the Paducah Kentuckian. A PADUCAH SENSATION. The Mother «f a Child Fourteen Years Old Assists in Her Forcible Ruin—A Prominent Citizen Implicated. The Immodest Fashions.—There are some features in the dress of the present day which every modest wife should shrink from showing upon her self, every careful mother should pro hibit iu hor daughters—things that in stead of pleasing the pure senses arc a direct or covert appeal to sensuality, and can have no other purpose—orna ments that are arranged so as to at tract the eye to portions of the person that should be passed over by the mod est gaze ; a style that gives a character to the walk like that of the lascivious dances of the East; distortions of limbs and figure that are injurious to health, and which can have no other recom mendation than that they suggest cer tain ideas as to the female form that are agreeable to the animal called man, looking as an animal on woman. The second Freneh Empire, appealing as it did systematically to everything that was impure and liase in a man, has in fected the fashion of dress to an unu sual degree; and very many follow the the fashions without thinking of any thing about them. But it should be borne in mind that ornamental dress is always designed to be affective in some direction. It produces some effect upon the spectators, it has some ap preciable influence upon tho wearers. Women cannot wear an impure style of dress, especially one that lias in it an clement of coarse sensuality, with out an injury to their own perfect pur ity and refinement, which every moth er must watch over in her daughters, and every wife guard relijnously in herself. J When a woman becomes so low, so degraded, so debased, so lost to all sense of decency and humanity, and, in her depravity, for the sako of gain, places upon the market the virtue of her daughter, and offers it to the high est bidder, wc think it high time that the woman should be punished to the extent of the law, and the child re moved far beyond her contaminating influence. In a Christian community it seems almost impossible that such a thing could occur, but it has occurred in this city almost under the droppings of the sanctuary. A woman, with a daughter between thirteen and fourteen years of age, some time ago came here and estab lished a house of illfame. Her daugh ter is represented to us as a modest and virtuous girl, and of rather pre possessing appearance; that she is greatly disgusted with her mother’s conduct and her mode of living, but being a stranger and very young had no recourse but to live with her. The mother’s ambition seems to have been to sell her wherever she could get the most money. Various offers, we un derstand, were made, but none of them accepted, until a man of family in this city made such a brilliant offer that it was accepted. The consent of the girl was all that was necessary to be ob tained. The girl, conscious of her vir tue and innocence, stoutly resisted all threats and blandishments. One night the mother let this man enter into the room of the daughter, after she had retired for the night., and lock ed the door. The girl, alarmed near ly to death, set up a terrible screaming and crying for help. Two women who lived in the house finally went to her assistance and after numerous threats to break the door down unless they were admittted, the man opened the door and made his exit. Even two prostitutes could not listen to the sercams of this young girl without go ing to her assistance, while the mother, who was anxious to sell her child, stood unconcernedly by without ... ing in the least affected. This man is prominent in this com munity, will walk our streets with head erect, and without a blush of shame, when he should slink from the gaze of all respectable and decent peo ple. That this was an attempted rape there can be no question, and that both the man and the mother are par ties to it, and are therefore responsible to the law, is also beyond question. Then in the name of decency and hu manity let the most stringent provis ions of the law be visited upon them. P. S.—Since writing tho above we learn that the man subsequently ac complished his design, and that the girl is encicnte; further, that she left here yesterday by river for Cairo to Mem phis to be confined. There is said to be other and similar cases in which ures, the particulars given to the public in r .i THE BIO SNAKE. Early Accounts of tho Sea Serpent. the same of which will a few days. There exists in India, among the na tives, a strong “ reform party” for the promotion of widow marriage. Form erly the widow went to the pile with her husband. When that was abolish ed by the stern hand of British law, the plan of “ starvinn;” instead of burn ing, was adopted. The widow, young or old, is compelled to wenr a certain dress, to live in retirement, to eat spar ingly, and, in shot, make herself as miserable as she can. Against this the “ reform party” is waging war; and the success which it is slowly ol)- taining is an indication of the progress toward Christian civilization which India is making. A marriage of the kind recently occurred; the widow be ing a young woman, who, after over coming many obstnbles, and being cruelly treated by her relatives, was married by two Brahmin priests, in the presence of a large number of the re form party. The affair created much excitement, and the priests who per formed the ceremony arc threatened with excommunication. Youxa Louis Natoleoj?.—The ex-Prince Imperial of France is to learn artillery practice in the English Royal School of Caunoniers. Being a Bonaparte, lie must, of course, be a soldier, however much ho may be un fitted by nature to set squadrons in the field or overlook the divisions of a bat tle. If his Imperial father spoke tru ly he is a Iiorn herb, for at Saarbruck he remained under fire without flinch ing. Though why the weak boy was ejqwscd to danger nt all, save to min ister to his father’s vanity, is not clear. If commou report is true, the young Louis Napoleon has no military tastes, and his studies among the great guns of England are not likely to fit him for the task of leading vast armies afield, as did liis father’s illustrious uncle, whose marvelous military genius has given all who bear his name a wondrous hold on the affections of the French people, though cone of his family have ever been endowed with a tithe of his great gifts. Impure Literature.—Dealers in obscene books arc having rather a hard time of it in England. One infamous fellow, Henry Judge, has been sen tenced to two years’ hard lalior;. and when these are over he will have to find securities for good behavior. Judge’s lawyer argued in defense of his dient that as the classics are some times obscene, they too should be sup pressed hy law—a silly fallacy requir ing exposure. It is true, that there are Greek and Lntin texts which are occasionally indelicate; but these hooks are not sought and read for tho sake of such passages, nor can they have any bad effect upon tho mind of a student of average brains. A Good Busrt.E Story.—A merry party of ladies and gentlemen hail a narrow escape from a terrible 'death among the Thousand Islands at the St. Lawrenco recently, but were saved by tlie presence of mind and heroism of one of the ladies. They were out in a yacht at a late hour in the evening, when the clouded sky rendered it al most impossible to distinguish objects on the water at a short distance. They were sailing about thoughtlessly, and enjoying themselves as such parties are in the habit of doing, when suddenly a dark object loomed up before thorn, which was evidently a largo steamer. A collision seemed inevitable, unless the steamer could lie signaled to change her course, as was impossible for the sailing craft to do so. The part} were in a terrible dilemma, as, except a few matches, there seemed to be no means at hand to produce a light. The young ladies, except one, screamed with terror, and a fearful catastrophe seemed on the point of consummation. A slight rustling, however, was ob served in the direction of the silent young lady. No one could sec what she was doing, but slic soon handed a roll of paper to one of the gentlemen. In a moment it was ablaze, the steam er’s course was changed, and the party were saved. When they recovered from their fright, there was naturally much spec ulation as to where that important roll of paper came from ;■ and it finally leaked out. that the fair one had heroi cally sacrificed her bustle to secure the safety of her companions. Ground Peas.—An old farmer’s experience in the “goober” business is set forth by tbeSander3ville Georgian as follows: “ We heard an old farmer, the other day, giving his experience in tho culti vation of Die ground pea. Said he, I planted an acre of good productive land in them. They grew finely and were easy to cultivate. In the fall I turned my pork-hogs, one hundred in number, upon this lot. Tho first day the hogs went all over the lot, as if looking for the best. I had arranged a trough iu one corner of the lot near a well for the purpose of supplying them with water. After eating tneir fill the hogs came to the trough for water, and near this they made their beds. “ From the first day they commenced rooting for tlie peas, near the trough and thus advanced day by day, going only ns for as was necessary to obtain a fall supply of food. Upon this lot I fattened these one hundred hogs thoroughly. After killiijg my pork, I turned my stock hogs upon tlie lot, and upon eatuig the remaining peas they all became fat, some of my brooding sows so much so that I Icared they would never bo of further service as such, and I converted them into pork also. He remarked that he gave his bogs no corn fit all, and thecousequence was his bacon nnd lard was tho soft. A little corn should be given a short time before killing, so os to harden the fat.” Groin men of Gbicugo estimate the corn crop of this year at twelve hun died ana fifty million bushels—the largest ever raised in the United States. They have had a killing frost in all the Northwestern States, but corn is generally out of the reach of all harm.

"Ail Miscellaneous Advertisements. fl-IAOU Toward tho end of the month of May, 1746, Laurent de Ferry of Ber gen was returning from a voyage to Trundhin, when the weather being calm and warm, he suddenly heard the eight men who formed the crew of his boat whisper to each other, He laid aside the book which he was read ing, and then noticed that the man at the helm was keeping off from the land. Upon questioning the latter, he was told that there was a sea serpent right before them. He ordered the man immediately to turn, and to steer straight upon the strange animal. The sailors at first showed great reluc- tanco to obey, but as the monster was right before them, and moving in the same direction, they became excited, and after a while engaged heartily in the novel stern chase. The captain, fearful that the mon ster might escape, fired his gun at it, and immediately it plunged, evidently wounded, for Die water all around was stained red, and remained so for two or three minutes. The head, which rose over two feet above the surface, resembled a horse’s head ; it was gray, with a dark brown mouth, black eyes, and apparently a long mane' flowing over the neck. Beyond the head they could see seven or eight coils of the huge serpent, each of enormous size, and at considerable distance from the neck. Tho animal did not.reappear; but the time during which it was clear ly in sight was ample to enable the captain and his crew to examine it closely. Tlie only other report which is perfectly clear and precise lias a Rev. Mr. McLean for its author, who wrote from the Hebrides, and very naively exhibited his terror. His statement amounts to this: He saw tlie sea serpent in June, 1808, on the coast of Coil. He was sailing about in a boat, when ho noticed, at the dis tance of half a mile, an object which excited his surprise more and more. At first he took it for a small rock among the breakers; but knowing the sea very well, and being sure that there was no rock there, he examined it carefully. He then saw that it rose considerably above the surface, and after slow, undulating movement, he discovered one of the eyes. Alarmed at the extraordinary appearance and the enormous size of the animal, he cautiously coasted along near the land, when ho suddenly saw the creature plunge in his direction. Ho as well as his men were thoroughly frightened, and pulled with all their might to es cape. \t the very moment at which they reached the shore, and when they had barely time to clitnb up to tlie top of a large rock, they saw the monster glide slowly up to their boat. Finding the water quite shallow there, it raised its horrible head, and turning again and again, seemed to be troubled how to get out of the creek. It was seen for lialf a mile, slowly making its way out to the open sea. The head was large, of oval shape, ami rested on a rather slender neck. The shoulders, as the good pastor calls them, were without gills, and the body tapered off towards the tail, which was never distinctly seen, as it was generally under tlie wa ter. The animal seemed to move by progressive undulations, up aud down ; its length they estimated at from sev enty to eighty feet; it moved more slowly when the head was out of the water, and yet it raised it frequently for tho evident purpose of discerning distant objects. At the same time, when Mr. AleLoan saw the serpent, it was also seen iu the waters pear the Island of Carma. Tho crews of thirteen fishing boats were so frightened by the terrible ap pearance that they sought refuge in the nearest creek. Nor were they only seen out at sea, when mistakes would lie natural, and fright or intense curi osity might lead to unconscious exag geration, but tho body itself has been examined by competent persons. Thus, to mendon but one instance, in 1808, the body of a gigantic serpent was washed ashore at Stronsn, one of the Orkneys. A Dr. Barclay was summoned nt once, and, in the pres ence of several justices of the peace and some men of learning, an affidavit was drawn up, which stated that the monster measured over fifty feet in length and nine feet in circumference ; that it had a kind of mane running from behind the head nearly to tlie tail, which was brilliantly phophores- cent at night; and that its gills, nearly five feet long, were not unlike tho plucked wings of a goose. Sir Evernd Home, it is true, believed it to be a basking shark of uncommon size. •» s » j y ‘a'laMxVaaa: f ‘h ‘ZIPUP*Ik>H -p»tpn®» sSfOOflWl T“*M} X ■*>BO IKU ojjsoddo ‘anttiHV anaTIOO no •«* roqmasON ‘iX3X AVdNOKUO uado IHM •[[BOB tju* omroAVj istuoqu UBIOJ poSasuro aooqoisti SKOOH 9NISS3H(I 0 N**I“B •asva’ia ox aaaxNvuvno hjiom tty •«¥TOI 3M® AIM® “J SMAMMIM 8 i SBOIfld HVNNVAVS IV SHdVUOOIOHd 3HVH TIIAV I SIIII OO 01 CtNV I A «'A3Norc xsaiiSyai m j °j sanruma xsaisoTC „ am axvre oi si laarao am ;$ad4o3J<i9j po« sqdejS«i«qj Hiioa Nil Sll»fti3i«§ «f¥3H3 $ Jfttfl mixVW NT A'lTYIOXdSX ‘da sens ih»ih I Dealers in 1 rugs Chemicals, Patent Htdicines, DRUGGISTS' SUNDRIES.

A family by tho name of Hunt, consisting of a father, mother and three children, have been living on a claim some two miles from Marion Center, in Marion county. Their house was siutated in a ravine, built of stone and roofed with dirt and sod, which was supported with timbers. Night before last, as some persona were returning home from a dance, they noticed that the roof of the house had fallen in. They immediately went to the house and found that the roof had fallen in upon the family as they lay sleeping in their beds. The party went at once to relieve them, and, upon taking the dirt away, found tlie mother and three children dead, and the father so fastened and held in his E lace that ho was even powerless to elp liimselt. The roof was very heavy, and came down in crushing force upon tlie in mates of the fatal house. For hours the father had lain piu- ned to his bed, and was compelled to hear the dying agonies of his wife and children ; compelled to listen to their piteous cries for help. Out on the prairie, beyond human reach, immur ed in a living tomb, the hours. slowly drag along and still no help. Still the appeal to “ Father, help us,” until all of human agony has been endured, and then a silence crept over that dread abode, which was but the still ness of death itself. The family had token a claim, and were in all probability rejoicing in the hopes of homo and comfort in years to come for their present privation, when the sad calamity befell them.. There is no ground too sacred for the invad ing feet of death, and around the hearthstone fire he comes unbidden, and tho family roof-tree changes to the gloom of a sepulchre.—Capital City (Nebraska) Neves.
