The Sure Refuge.
BY AVGUSTA MOORE.
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

Another Dr. Hines Case.
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

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.—

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.
General Laue and he are both men of tact and
energy.
Hon. Lafayette Grover, member elect to the
House of Representatives for the State of Ore
gon, is a young man, alsiut 32. year* old, a na
tive of the State of Maine. He studied law in
Philadelphia, was admitted to the bar in 1850,
mid emigrated to Oregon the same year. He
Ims served in the Legislature, and held various
offices of trust. Ho is said to [«.«!..■>. conside

Illicit Trading.
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

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.

SUCH as Indigestion, Acidity of the Stomach, Col

' deucy. 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- ■
