A man in Marion ounty last week saved L?) hy taking liis local p:i!er, the Mercury, and there is a man i" this county, near biow'iivi!lc, vho t(ld us, t u short time ago. that he liad inaue an.vu-ac:c tract of land by bei:e4 a reader of the Demo crat. He had been wauling for a long time to buy an t-0. adjoining hi farm, but could get no track of the owner, who was a non-resident of the State, and finally saw it adveitised for tax sale in the Democrat. !Ie attended tho sale and bought itfor a nomiu.il.sum. and is now the owner of it.

M.nny, especially aged, people, are giving up wordly u Hairs, wearing a shroud, and ordering their coin . On every road are men repairing to Moscow to be consecrated priests, in "older that the smallest village may have its own priest and church. The bussian paper fails to state whether its delinquent subsci ibcis have taken file -carc and paid up. That to our mind would be stronger evidence of the approach of tiie Milleniiium than any thing that a super stitious Cossack could advance. Don't 11k d Avi:ictisi:mknts.
