Our advice, to peoile whose low instincts will not allow of their conducting themselves in a decent and respectable manner while attending places of worship, is to stay at home, and never obtrude their presence on respectable) people. It is not a matk of independ ence, good seuse, or good breediog, to at tend any place of worship for the purpose cf mocking its ceremonies, and behaving io a manner that would disgrace a Dig ger Indian. We hope never to hear of such conduct again, in Linn . county at least. Last Appointment.
