occupies. Some of the most dreadful Occi
dents A’hich have ever occurred on rail t oads
have been traced to engineers who were

rail roads, (and who docs not?) should use
all his influence to procure the passage of
such a law. It is a law which makes the

Every one must have observed the
facility with which all sorts of persons can
procure testimonials of their excellence and
superiority. When any one solicits a line
of recommendation from us, there are sev
eral reasons why we are disposed to grant
,- t thouuli we may be by no means clear as
to the worthiness of the applicant. In the
first place the request implies a compliment,
namely: -that our recommendation is de
sirable. This flatters ns and disposes to
accede. Then the application is usually
made in person; and there are few persons
who have the moral courage to tell a man to
his face (if he have any pretensions to de
cency,) that you cannot gratify him. Then,
airain, we sometimes consider common po
litenes as requiring us to employ strong
language. And it may sometimes be, that
we give the certificate to relieve ourselves
of an unfortunate applicant.
We have often been struck with the ac
tual qualifications of meirin contrast with
the surpassing excellencies which are
claimed for them in their credentials. The
truth is that even good men are not so par
ticular in tiiis matter as they’ should. Ma
ny who would he horrified at the thought
of telling a falsehood, suffer no pains of
conscience in perpetrating its equivalent in
the shape of a recommendation for friends.
But perhaps this evil is working its own
course. Certificates have now, in the esti
mation of shrewd men, very’ little impor
tance connected with them. And unless
they are given with more discrimination
they will soon be altogether worthless.
In illustration of our rem irks we will
mention that a profane shoemaker who was
sime time ago working at his trade in
Athens, and who confessed to his employer
he lost his money by gambling in
Charleston and Augusta, lias been palming
himself on the public as a lecturer on Mne
monics and a Minister of the Gospel! He
had “credentials from good brethren!!”
Cheer tip!
Dr. Johnson used to say that the “habit
of looking upon the bright side of things
was worth one thousand pounds a year.—
There are some persons who are making
themselves and those about them miserable
by clinging always to the dark side ot tile
picture. Though no evil may be apparent,
■it is nevertheless anticipated, and they are
thus rendered unhappy from an imaginary
cause. The man who on having his leg
broken thanked God that it was not his!
neck, was a real philosopher. Though suffer
ing from an injury done to his leg, lie found ]
pleasure in being grateful that a more se
rious calamity had not befallen him. If in
stead of crossing bridges before we conte.
“we should always hope for better days,
.we should be vastly liappLr. It is lawful
to do this, for these days will come. The
darKest night must give place to the dawn.
We have been addressing the Tem
perance Banner to Joint A Crossly, Winn’s |
P. O. Talapoosa county, Ala. from Jan. 1,
1848. The present week we had the paper
returned, endorsed, “No such office in Ala.”
Mr. Crossly owes us for more than four
jKnrs,and it is a little strange that we have
just received the above information.
A Subscriber in Marion county, who
has not paid us one cent in more than four
years, lias become highly affronted at our
putting/our black marks on the Banner ad
dressed to him. lie says, “Slop my paper, \
as I will not take another from tins office. Z
like the paper if I could have it and read it in
peace.”
Tlte sum and substance of which amounts
to this; I have taken the Banner for more
than four years, without paying for it; if
you will be at the labor and expense of
printing and mailing it to me, for more than
four years more, without calling on me to
pay any thing,l will still take the paper, and
can have ‘■'peace.” But inasmuch as you re
quire me to pay for it, as I am legally and
honorably bound to do, stop it, “I cannot
read it in peace.” What a conscience!

was not a color of the order; that it was
more than probable that they had one of

Dear Brother; As I intend, if my health
shall continue, to he constantly engaged
through the present spring and summer in
the temperance cause, 1 beg leave to sug

Died, on the evening of the 9th inst., at j
tlte house of Mr. Il'tw. IS. Johnson, near
Penfield, his niece Miss Elizabeth Ham- |
mond, in tiie 19th year of hersge.
Also on the morning of tiie 19th, only a
few hours afterwards, his daugthvr Mrs.
Samantiie Ann Harris, wife of .Mr. Wnt.
Harris, in the 20th year of her age.
A wasting disease had been for some i
months undermining tlte life of Mrs. Harris; j
and in the exetcise of kind sympathy, her!
cousin had left Iter home in Woodstock to
visit her in her affliction and to minister to
Iter. But we know not what a day may j
bring forth. On the evening of iter arrival I
she was seized with violent brain lever, and j
before tlte morning dawned site was raving ]
in delirium, and just one week from tiie]
time of Iter leaving home, she was conveyed I
hack to that home a cold and silent corpse. I
hi the meantime the ease of Mrs. Harris’
was hastening to its crisis; and a few hour]
after the departure of her cousin, she too
was numbered with the dead. Thus went j
down to the grave in the brightness of
youth, the daughter, the wife, and the moth
er. In these several relations she was fond
ly loved, for she fully met the demand.;
which they imposed upon her.
While many circumstances increased the ] i
sadness of thi- double her cavern nt, there j
I was one fact which served to alleviate its
horrors. For several years they had both
1 professed to have experienced a change ot
heart, and had ninintciiied a consistent Chris,
(jail character in the cniminiiiioii of the
| Presbyterian church. Hence they were not
; afraid to die. They met the King of ter
rors with calm in signnii.in to the will of
God. Even mniJst the excitement of de
lirium, Mi-s 11; iiiiiiohd’- mb <! sci tm <1 <>!..
I absorbed with thoughts l Christ ami Heav
en. She talked ahnos incessantlv ofthese
j sublime and holy themes. Mrs. Harris said
| less, but was equally composed in view of
I her approaching change. Their friends
I may well find abundant e< (isolation in the
| triumph of their death, for
They die in Jesus and are blessed,
llow kind their slumbers are,
From suffering and from sin released,
And freed from every snare.
