How to Rem a Itxri TATion.—Any body can soil the reputation of un individual, however pure and chaste, | by uttering a suspicion Hint his ene- I mb-* will tieliew and his friends nev |er hear of.

Such nre the seisin of I slander, so early sown, so diilleult ! to lie gathered up, mid yet so peini ciou* in their fruits. The slanderer know* that many a wind will catch up the plague ami liecome poisoned by his iiisimiatious, without ever , seeking the antidote. No reputation cau refute a sneer, nor any human ! skill prevent mischief. A western editor advertised that 1 he would take **a good dog In pay. I incut of a year's sutwcriplion." The | nest day twenty three dog* were tak en to his office, and nest day after a score or more of farmers, living at distance of from eight to twenty miles, ap|>carvd to suliserilie for the ps|w*r, tendering dogs in payment.

Daniel McAdams died in Hall county, aged 82 years, lie was a soldier in the war of 1812. He had lived iu Hall county fifty-four years. The black Ktt-klux up in Monroe souuty, arc committing horrible out rages on white folk's cltikens, ducks and tin keys. Tito Radical Treasurer and tax Collector of Monroe county can't find Democrats soft enough to go on their liond, and arc, therefore, still hunger ing and thirsting after the sweets of office. Au.r.x McCi.ka.*, a young Ken tuckian, residing in Cainplwll county, had been quite dissipated, but “got religion" st a Methodist revival, and regarding himself ns better prepared to die than lie ever would be again, be went to the Licking river, and af ter singing “I want to be an Angel," Icn|ms| into the stream and drowned himself. A Lady conducting a private school in Greenwich, Conn., some eighteen yesrs ago, failed to |«iy her ex|M-ii*ca, and after struggling along and getting deeply in debt, sold all her effect* and paid her creditors sev enty cents on the dollar, the latter cbeerftiily accepting that for the whole amount. Fortune having since smiled u|ion her, she ba* lately |mid up her old debts In frill, with interest to date. A at*>lcn kiss saved a girl's life in Fond du Lac last week, for 11 the man who did the deed hod not pulled tier bend forward Just as bn did, a beam which fell from the upper story would bare dashed her brain* out.

John Lunman and Martha, his wife, w hose inaidcti name was Tin usher now living iu Leopold Township, Perrv county, Indiana, have certainly fol lowed the Scriptural injunction, to multiply and replenish the earth— John Lautnan.was bom in Caswell eouuty, North Carolina, May 30th, 1783, and his wife was born iu Bed ford county, Virginia, near the Bull Run battle ground, March 9lh, 1788, and are consequently aged 88 aud 83 repectivriy. They were married in Breckinridge comity, Ky., March 3d, 1808, moved to i'urrv county iu 1811, liefore the battle of Tip|>ecunoc, and first )Mtid taxes to the sheriff at Vin cennes when it was a portion of Knox county. They have been members of the Baptist Church for fifty years, and have now living one hundred and ninety-eight children, grand children and great grand children aud forty five dead ; making a total living aud deail of two limiilieil and forty-throe. If there has ever been a single one of the family had a civil law suit or ur. rested for an offense, it is not known. tVlq- i.iic Miotild not Ktvcur, A u article in the Pittsburg Preacher, gives six good reasons wliy a man should not swear: 1. it is mean. A man of high standing would almost as soon steal sheep ns swear. 2. It is vulgar—altogether too low for a decent man. 3. It is cowardly—implying a fear of not being believed or obey ed. 4. It is ungcntlcmanly. A Gen tleman, according to Webster, is it genteel man well luod, refined. Such itu one will no more swear than go in to the street to throw mud with a loafer. 6. It is indecent—offensive to del icacy and extremely unlit for human ears. C. It is foolish- ‘Want of decency is want of sense.’ To tlnr t*nt>*eril»ers. Some of our old subscribers in the States of Texas, Louisiana, and Flori da, and also in Pulaski county, have neither written nor called to see us in regard to the Dispatch for the year 1871. We would like to hear from litem. Subscribers in litis county 'had best call and sec n r. To Ci.KAff Lamp Chimneys.—most people in defining lamp either use a brush made of bristles twisted into a wire, or a rag on the point of scissors. Both of these are bad; for without great care, the wire, oi scissors will scratch the glass as a diamond docs, which,,under the ex. ponsive power of heat, soon breaks, us all scratched glass w ill. If you want a neat little thing that costs nothing, and will save half your glass, lie u piece of soft s|ionge the size of your chimney to a pine stick. A Traveler, wc are told, being in a wild couutry w here ho could find no provisions for human Or dog, cut off tho dog’s tail and boiled it for his own supper, and gave the dog the bone. A little girl who loves to pray, one night was very tired and sleepy, and getting into her little bed without saying her prayers. But her mamma told her to kneel down first to pray. So she folded her little hands anil said : “ Please, God, remember what little Polly said last night, she’s so tired to-night. Amen.” A citixcu of Connecticut, being un cxpcclcdly called uppu to address a Sunday School, rose to his feet in some confusion, and, after several des|icratc and vain efforts to say something appropriate, hoarsely mur mured, “My dear childrcu, never fool with powder.
