Art thou a stranger in a foreign land, Art thou an orphan, friendless and alone? Has rugged Poverty with iron hand, Crushed out thy hopes, and sealed thee for its Own ? Is thy heart sore with many suffering loves, And heavy with sad memories of death ? And had thou learned how worse than vain it proves To trust iu human tenderness or faith? Come, ere the spear points in thy spirit nxst. For consolation unto Jesus fly j Come, < li ! thou Desolate, and put thy trust In one whose love can all thy need supply. It may be He hath cast thee thus abroad, Helpless and sad upon the winds of life, To make thee that thou shouldst not vainly hoard Thy treasures here, where all is restless strife. Denied the pleasures of an earthly home, The “ fatness” of a father’s house denied, Look thou to Heaven, where none shall weary roam, There shall thy yearning soul be satisfied. Massacre of Missionaries. On Tuesday, the Vice President laid before the Senate a communication from the Depart ment of War, made in compliance with a reso lution of the 26th ult., calling for a copy of the topographical memoirs and maps of Colonel < Wright's late campaign against the Indians in | Oregon ami Washington Territories; which I was read, and the motion to print referred to 1 the Committee on Printing. Among the subjects contained in this report is what purports to lie an authentic account of the murder of a Methodist Missionary, Dr. Kil inan. who crossed the plains and settled in the valley of the Walla Walla, where he soon had around him all the comforts of rural life, and where, with his interesting family, he eiun meneed his efforts to instruct and enlighten the savages of that region. The small pox having broken out among the Indians, spread with great rapidity, hundreds of their numbers falling victims to the disease. The family of the niisssonary did all in their power to mitigate and assuage the sufferings of these savages, by nursing them and distribut ing medicines. But the missionary family not being afflicted with the pestilence, created a suspicion in the minds of the Indians that the pestilence had been brought for the purpose of destroying the red race and obtaining their lands. With a view to test practically the truth, two Indians were sent over to the mis sion farm, that had not been afflicted with the malady, in order that the missionary might prescribe for them, which was kindly done, and the red patients returned to their friends to await the issue. By some strange fatality, both of those Indians died, which confirmed in the minds of those savages the truth of the sus picion, and the next step was revenge. A stal wart savage was selected for the bloody deed, who stole into the chamber of the sleeping fam ily and buried his tomahawk in the brains of the missionary and that of his wife, and then other Indians rushed in, and helpless children, male and female employees, were butchered, the house razed to the ground, fences destroy ed, and every vestige of a once happy home disappeared. Ax Awkward Fix.—The Brookville (Pa.,) Jeffersonian, of the Iftth inst., says that a Ger man, named Carb, while out hunting in Clear field county, came across a bear trap, and hav ing never seen one before, he entered for the purpose of examining it, but unfortunately touched the trigger, and was shut up. In this predicament he remained two days, nearly dead from hunger and cold, when the man who set the srap came to examine it, and found that instead of a bear, he had caught a Dutchman. Singular Freight.—A bright l>oy of nine years was delivered in Lanesboro’, Mass.,a few days since for the purpose of attending school, having been forwarded by Adams’ Express from Houston, Texas. The “freight'’ had been four weeks on the road. A Story as is a Story. The reader is expected to believe the follow ing story iu every particular: When a young man, I was traveling in M estern New ’I ork, and late of a stonny night applied at a log cabin for lodging. The occupant, a woman, refused it, saying her hus band and sous were out hunting, and if they found me they would murder me. I preferred the chance to the storm, and she consented that 1 might lie down before the tire. In the night I heard them coming and scrambled up the chimney. Thinking I was safe, when at the top, I stepped over the roof, and jumping down at the back of the cabin, struck plump into a wolf-trap. A scream of pain from me brought the man and boys out, und they de clared 1 deserved a much more severe punish inent than death, so they kept me both in the trap and suspense until morning, and then hyadini me up in a hogshead, with no light or air but the bung hole, they put me on a sled, drove me some four miles np a hill, and then rolled me off to starve. This 1 undoubtedly should have done, but for a very singular oc curence. Ihe wolves smelled me and gathered around my prison, when one of them, in turn ing around, happened to thrust his tail into the bungdiole. It was my only chance. 1 took a firm I H) ].] alll ] | le ]j ()n death to a negro. « liieh frightened the wolf, of course, ami he started down the hill, followed by the hogshead and nie. k was a very uneasy ride o\er the stones and stamps; but 1 had no idea how long it wan, until the hogshead striking a stone fairly, the staves, worn by long travel, were broken in. and | j Hl ii|>cd oU t nu J found my sell « ay down th,- lower end of Cattaraugus county, some .>» miles front the scene of the disaster.— Fatal Nuoovtßu JrvuAv.— Od Saturday la*l an affray took e ßt a. c ., urt j nt M.

On Wednesday morning a young man visit ed our office, with a letter from one of our friends, who resides in the northern portion of the State, in which lie was introduced to us, and commended to our attention and kind offices, as the brother of John Mitchel, the editor of.the Southern Citizen, published at Washington City, who was traveling through the southern States to solicit subscriptions for that paper. Neith er the appearance or conversation of the young man impressed us very favorably, but with a genuine letter of introduction from a personal friend in this State, who has been imposed up on by the young rascal, we were obliged to show him some civility, and, at his solicitation, went with him and introduced him as a traveling agent of the Southern Citizen, and brother of its editor, to two gentlemen in this city, from one of whom he obtained two dollars, for a year’s subscription to that paper. We know very little of his movements, after we left him. but understand that he succeeded in getting some eighty dollars, in tfro dollar subscrip tions to the Citizen, and left on the night train of the Savannah and Augusta rail-road, for Ma con or Savannah, or some intermediate point. The paper* by the afternoon mail of Wednes day, convinced us that a statement which he had made us, concerning Smith O’Brien, the Irish patriot, was utterly false, and led us to suspect that he was an impostes, and we took occasion to mention our suspicions to others, and to warn them against him. Yesterday morning, after the rogue had probably reached Macon or Savannah, they were confirmed by the fidlowing paragraph, in the Citizen of the I‘Jtli inst., to which (we do not exchange with the Citizen,) our attention was called by one of its subscribers in this city. It is in the column of the Citizen headed, “ Answers to Correspon dents From Selma, Ala., we have this account of an enterprising young man— Selma, Ala., Feb. 13, 1859. John Mitchel, Esq ; Dear Sir : A young man who says he is your brother, has been obtaining a great many subscribers in this place for the Southern Citi zen, and he has received the money in advance. But since the young gentleman left this plan 1 which he did on yesterday morning, for the pur pose of canvassing the towns of Marion, <lreens boro’, Tuskaloosa. Ac., several gentlemen have expressed the belief that he is not what he pre tends to be, i. e. your brother, and authorized agent to receive subscriptions. If this surmise should unfortunately turn out to be true, you will have the kindness to write to me immedi ately on the subject. Sincerely your friend, Tiios. Kelly. P. S.—The young man alluded to is about twenty two or twenty-three years of age, black curly hair, ruddy complexion, and walks with I a crutch, his left leg having been injured, as he says, by a white swelling. Kelly. We give the letter in full, that people may be on their guard against this swindler. No body is authorized to collect subscriptions for us, except one gentleman, Mr. McCreight, in South Carolina, and he is announced as our agent in the Citizen itself. We hope that some one in Marion, Tuskaloosa or Greensboro’ may have thecurly young rascal arrested. Is there no penitentiary in Alabama ? Subscribers can always remit to this office in bills current in their respective States. If the letters arc registered it will be our risk.” The statements in the letter from Selma agree with those which were made to us by our visitor, and the description identifies him as the person who has been swindling the people of Alabama, by representing himself as the agent of the Southern Citizen. Telegraphic dispatches, giving a full descrip tion of him and warning the public against him as an imposter, have been sent from this city to Macon und Savannah, which will probably ter minate his collecting tour. Our contemporary of the Citizen has been doubtless seriously in jured by him. We have done what we could to stop him in his career of imposition, and if he is arrested in this State, will cheerfully con tribute a jjortion of the expense of a prosecu tion to place him in the penitentiary.—-liz</hs ta Constitutionalist. Outrage on the South Carolina Rail Road—Narrow Escape of Mr. Stephen Mas set. —On Saturday evening, as the cars were passing between Branchville and Augusta, and when about forty miles from this city, a ball passed through the second car window with a loud report immediately in front of Mr. Mas sett’s face, and nearly striking Mr. Rice, of Baltimore, who, had he not been leaning back on the car, would have been instantly killed.—• On the night before, some miscreant perpetrat eda similar outrage, and Mr. John A. Seals, of Baltimore, narrowly escaped being killed, the ball touching the rim of his hat. Surely the superintendent of the road ought to investi gate this matter and bring the shameful and cowardly assassin to condign punishment.— Dispatch. — i 11 The New Oregon Congressmen. Gen. Joseph Lane and Hon. Dclazon Smith are the Senators elected to represent the State of Oregon in the Senate of the United States.— Gen. Lane is a native of North Corolina, whence he emigrated with his parents to Kentucky.— Joseph followed the profession of a boatman on the Ohio until he emigrated to India, where he bonght himself a farm and commenced his political career. He served several years in the State Legislature, but during the war with Mexico he turned soldier, and though entering the army as a private, he soon rose to the mark of Colonel, and finally to that of Brigadier Gen eral. lie greatly distinguished himself during the war, and received from the army the sou briquet of “the Marion of Mexico” for his dash ing gallantry. After his return home he was sent out as Governor of Oregon, and now turns up one of the Senators of the new State, Senator Smith is a native of this State, being born in New Berlin, Chenango county, lie was trained for the profession of the bar, but he has had connection as writer and editor with various Democratic journals in this State and in Ohio, lie has been actively associated with the movements of the Democratic party since 183". Iu 1846 he emigrated to lowa, and in 1852 he emigrated with his family to Oregon. He at once interested himself in the politics of the Territory, and was thrice elected to the Legislature. He was a member of the Conven tion to frame a State Constitution, and after the adoption of the Constitution he was chosen United States Senator by a largo majority.

We copy the following article from the New Orleans Picayune. It contains matter which will “come home” to many of our subscribers in Macon. Wo hope Georgia will take the same steps for the protection of her merchants that have been adopted in Louisiana. Our City Council might act in the matter. The Picayune says: The council, at its last session, took the-initi atory step to the apjHiintment of an assistant treasurer, whose special duty it should be to se cure the payment of a license of S3OO by all who sell goods by • unple to this city. The increasing nmnlier of Northern drum mers who have this year visited New Orleans, ■ and, indeed, penetrated every quarter of the i Southern States, very properly excites a desire to protect onr own legitimate traders. But the resolution introduced into our council is not comprehensive enough to accomplish the object designed. The great evil complained of by our retail, and even wholesale, deniers, is not the competition ot those who sell by sam ples, but of those who absolutely bring heavy stocks of goods to this market and, without paying a license tax, without opening an es tablishment in the city, manage to intercept the custom of the country merchants and of ndividual strangers. Stocks of goods amounting to ten, t wenty and even thirty thousand dollars are now in this city, introduced into hired lodging rooms as baggage, the owners of w hich form acquain tance with strangers at our hotels and watch the customers at our principal business estab lishments, between whom and the regular deal ers they interpose and sell at reduced prices any quantity of merchandise which is desired. The result is simply this, that the merchants from the interior and the strangers who are now in the city obtain their supplies from men who pay no tax on capital, no license on their business, no rent of a business establishment, and, contributing in no manner to the revenues of this city, arc undermining the business of our regular merchants by selling at New lock or Boston prices, cither at w liolesale or retail, whatever may be desired by* those who have heretofore been supplied from the stocks open ly exhibited in New Orleans. These transient traders arc not content with simply catching the trade that comes to this city, but, after remaining here some weeks they leave in their lodgings a large portion of their stock, while they make excursions into the country, going out by the railroads or the river, and visiting every little village where there may be any sale for their wans. Competition is the life of trade, mid to a fair and honorable struggle to command the custom of strangers or residents of this city no man will object. But it is destructive of our own interests to permit stocks of goods to be smuggled, as it were, into the city, hid away into trunks am! carpet-bags in obscure lodg ings, to which the stranger from the hotel or the buyer is seen to enter any well known es tablishment, after being button-holed, is steal thily introduced, and supplied at rates lower than the retail price in our own stores. It is not a question simply of city revenue, but of self-protection ; and .we submit that the reso lution designed to affect those who sell by sample does not cover the whole ground—fails to meet the evil of which our merchants justly complain. At the St. Charles Hotel at one time, a few days since, twenty individuals, who had large stocks of plated jewelry, were boarding. A . stock of more than thirty thousand dollars is known by many-to be deposited in a lodging room in the Second District, from w hich the owner takes in a carnet bag tliousands of did ! lars worth, at a time, and visits our small jew - elry establishments, the public places of the city, and even private families. Many persons, with very large capital have I a private desk in some counting-room during , the winter season, paying no rent, no tax, no license, who yet buy and sell our great staples to the extent of hundreds of thousands of dol lars. Missouri lias affixed a tax of SOOO upon all persons who may be found engaged in such trade in that State, and our city council ow e it to the w holesale and retail dealers of this city, who willingly pay their contributions tor the support of the Government, to adopt such measures as shall fully protect them against the unfair competition which begins seriously to affect some branches oP trade in this city.— The resolutions on this subject should be broad enough to cover the whole ground, and the tax should be discriminative in favor of legiti mate trading.” Henry Hallam, the historian, died in I.on ’ don, on the 22d of January, in the eighty-first • year of his age. lie was born about the year 1778, and was educated at Eton and Oxford but since he left the Universary, has resided in London. In 1830 he reeieved one of the 50-gui nea gopl medals, instituted by George-IV., for eminence in historical w ritings. lie was one of the early contributors to the Edinbury Ue rieir, and took an active part in the great movement for tho abolition of the slave taade; he led strictly- the life of a scholar. But a greater degree of interest has been felt in the historian of late years, since the publcation of Tennyson’s In Meinoriam, from the circum stance of that poem having been inspired by the grief felt for the loss of Hallam's son, the poet's intimate friend and companion. In 1818 Hallam published his first work, which gained him at once a high literary reputation, the view of the state of Europe during the middle ages. Nine years after he published his Con stitutional History of England, from the death of Henry VII. to the death of George 11. His next and last work was bis Introduction to the Literary History of Europe, during the fifteenth sixteenth, and seventeenth centuries.— Ex. The Tubular Bridge at Mon- TREAL. Some weeks ago, during the intense cold, it wiu re- i ported that the iron tubular bridge which is being i built at Montreal, had been materially injured by j the action of the frost in twisting and straining the ; iron. A correspondent of the New York Courier, al- j lulling to the subject, says he has, from the highest ; authority, the following answer to the report: “ The tubes obey the law common to iron in any ■ shape or form, by contracting or expanding, as the ease may he, one ten-thousandth part of its length i for each fifteen degree variation Fahrenheit. Thus, i from pier to pier, the Victoria Bridge tubes extend : 260 feet; it is fixed upon one pier—it is free to • move to and fro upon the other pier upon smooth rollers provided for the purpose of rendering its obe dience to those laws easy and uniform. F»r instance, 1 260 feet in length of tube gives one-third of an inch as one ten-thousandth part of its length. In July | last the therinotneter indicated a maxium of 128. I On the l<Hh and 11th of this month, Januarv, it market! 37 degrees below zero, making an extreme | variation of 166. This would prodttM a dtfforanet of j eleven ten-thousandth parts of the lengths of the tube, equal to inches. And this is the exact <piau tily found by measurement to have th»* rase.— f The CKtrvinv cold ou the days mentioned, induced I more than ordinary to Im* taken (the !<>w temperatara I having rvat bed a |»oint unknown to the rngineer since hr hut beeu in the main ry,) The sutinbier and I the shade produced their effect every day, but all this 1 is knowu. and for it the pr<q»er rule* hatebccMadopt t •<!, and the iron’s movement is in oUnlk-arv to a Uw , arhirh U in riart cunlormity with the pre-<-aulioas ta- ■ 1 ken l»y the Al ll l leTRATIUM O* 1 KMFKMA Ma. - A lliat* Fall and Winter Trade FOR 1858 AND 1859.

SPECIAL NOTICE. We ask particular attention to our schemes drawn I «>n the Havana Plan only on the Ist ami 1-th of every i month and ask a comparison with any other Lottery inexistence. The plan is so simple that every one can understand it and it has fewer numbers than any other Lottery, and therefore, the chances to draw Prizes are better. For instance: There is in our Lottery only BU,OOO Numbers, and all others on the same plan range from 4”,”o” to 50,0v0 Numbers.— Those Lotteries on the -combination plan never have less than 75,000 Numbers and Prizes are subject to a deduction of 15 per cent., while in our Lottery there is no deduction on Prizes. Plan of the Lottery and manner of Drawing. Slips of Paper of exactly the same size and printed with numbers from 1 to 30,0<)0 which correspond with those on the Tickets are inserted in Tin Tubes and deposited in the Number Wheel. Similar slips on which are printed the amounts of the different Prizes arc also inserted in Tin Tubes and de posited in the Prize Wheel. When the drawing 1 takes place, (which is always in public,) the Num | her Wheel is revolved and a number drawn from it; i at the same time the Prize Wheel (containing the *i Prizes from SSO to $30,000) is also revolved and a ; Prize drawn from it. The Numbers are recorded I and the Prize drawn with each Number is credited to 1 that Number. ’I bis operation is continued until the Prizes are all drawn out, after which the Numbers drawn and the Prizes are called over by the Commis sioners, and are certified to by thetn, ami a copy ot the drawing is sent to each person holding One or more Tickets. The 3'>oo Prizes of sls mentioned in the Scheme, are determined by the last figure of the Number that draws the Capital Prize. For instance, say the Capital Prize is drawn to number 885,a1l those Whole Tickets ending with five are entitled to s].\ Halves and Quarters iu proportion. It will thus be readily perceived that one Ticket can draw two Prizes say 13,305 draws $5,000 it is also entitled to sls, because it ends, with the same number as does the Capital Prize. One Ticket in every Ten Whole Tickets where the Numbers end consecutively with I, 2, 8. 4,5, 6,7. 8, V, 0, is obliged to draw sls besides tho'-hauoe to draw one of the Capitals. A s are thus particular to demonstrate to those who desire to try their luck, that our Lotteries are better channels of investment than any other Lottery ( and far better than cotton speculation. Purchasers I ran have Tickets ending with any Number they may i select. If for instance, you select ten whole Tickets ending with 7 you pay’ sso for them—should the I Capital Prize end with 7, you are entitled to $l5O besides the chances of drawing one of the Capitals. BOGUS LOTTERIES.—As there are many Bogus I Lotteries in existence iu the United States, ana nv rnanv of our Patrons are unacquainted with us, we would respectfully refer them to the following parties for our respectabilitv and responsibility.

Uostivenos, Blind and Bleeding Piles. In all Nervous, Rheumatic, and Neuralgic Affections, it ; has in numerous instances proved uighly beneficial, I and in others affected a decided cure. This is a purely benelicial compound, prepared on I strictly scientific principles, after the manner of the , •elebratcd Holland Professor, Boerhave. Because of j its great success in most of the European States, its | | introduction into the United States was intended i i more especially for those of our fatherland scattered 1 here and there over the face of this mighty country. I Meeting with great success among them, I now offer j it to the American public, knowing that its truly won derful medicinal virtues must be acknowledged. | It is parlicula ly recommended to those persons whose constitutions may have been impaired by the 1 continuous use of ardent spirits or other forms of dis- j sipation. Generally instantaneous in effect, it finds its way directly to the seat of life, thrilling and quick ening every nerve, raising up the drooping spirit, j and, in fact, infusing new health and vigor to the system. Notice.—Whoever expects to find this a beverage will be disappointed ; but to the sick, weak and low , spirited, it will prove a grateful aromaticcurdial, pos sessed of singular remedial properties. C AUTION : The great popularity ot this delightful Aroma has 1 induced many imitations, which the public shouly . guard against purchasing. Be not persuaded to bud ' anything else until you have given Boerhave’s Hol- ! land Bitters a fair trial. One bottle will convince j you how infinitely superior it is to all these iuiita- ■ | tions.
