P 0 E T 11 Y A IIyuin to the NigKt. BY T. BUCHANAN BEAD. Oh Night! most beautiful, most rare 1 Thou givest the heavens their holiest hue ; And through the azure fields of air Bringest down the gentle dew ! Most glorious occupant of heaven, And fairest of the earth and sea ! Tho wonders of the sky are given, Imperial Night, to thee. For thou, w ith breathless lips apart, Didst stand in that dim age afar, And hold up thy trembling heart Messiah's herald-star. In Olivet thou heard’st Ilim pray, And wept thy dews in softer light, And kissed his sacred tears away ! Thrice blessed, loving Night! And thou didst overweigh with sleep The watchers at the sepulchre ; And heard’st the asking Mary weep, Till Jesus answered her. For this I love thy hallowed reign ! For more than this thrice blest thou art ! Thou gain’st the unbeliever’s brain By entering at his heart ! Oh, Night! most regal! most divine ! Thou lift’st the spirit from the dust! God's best and brightest gifts are thine, All thine, and it is just! From the American Banner. My Country. BY C. S. 1*EKC1VAL. There is a name whose sacred spell My heart with rapturous joy can swell, Allied to joy divine : Or blind my eyes with gushing tears, And Sll my anxious soul with fears,— My country, it is thine! The essence of all tender names, The fire that lights all holy flames, In that one fond name is found. The loves of parents, brother, friend, And childhood's home, all sweetly blend In that melodious sound. Its glory is my highest pride, Its darkest shame I fain would hide, Or wash with tears away. The brightest hopes of future years Around that glorious name appears— My glorious country’s name for aye ! The love that kindles at the sound No selfish, narrow limits bound, Whene’er that name I call, I own no part I love the best— No North, no South, no East, no Wat, My Country, all ix all. Y A ll I E T Y Very Hungry. The following extract of a speech deliv- ered by Mr. Olds, of Ohio, in the House of Representatives, is toq good to be lost : Sir: if Frank Pierce comes to the work assigned him by the Democracy of the country, as I have no doubt he will, there will be as big a muss kicked up i.i Wash- ington city on the 4th of March as there was at Mrs. Smith’s house, (as related by my friend, the ‘Buckeye abroad,') when little Jake Smith ran over to Mrs. Brown’s, to tell her that ‘dad was dead ; inarm was drunk ; the old cow had a calf; John had swallowed a pin ; Jim had got the delirium triangles looking at the rora boreax —[laughter]—and that ain’t all neither,’ says Jake. ‘What else, ’pon ’arth, can be the matter,’ inquired Mrs. Brown. ‘Why, Sal broke the butter plate, Susan has split the pancakes, and Toe has sat down in the skalding tailew we had for dipping candles, and one of the Maltese kittens has got his head in the molasses jug, and we can’t get it out— and we are all so darn’d hungry.’— [Shouts and cheers.] Mr. President, in my imagination, the 4ib of March is pas- sing beloie me, and 1 think the Whig Galphin office-holders pouring out of the various government departments, with the tears running down their piteous no» ses, and their lamentation is, ‘that Web- ster is dead, Filinore has (filibustered, Scctt has got a Native Ameiiran calf, North Carolina has swallowed Graham, and Tom Corwin has got the delirium tri- angles looking for Northern Aboliiion voles ! [L md and prolonged cheering.] And that ain’t all, either, Mr. President —for Toombs has broken their butter plate, Gentry has spilt their pancakes, and Seward has set down in the scalding tallow they had for dipping ‘higher law’ candles, and Frank Pierce has got into the Presidential chair, and we can’t get him out ; and we are all so darn’d hun- gry. [Roars of laughter and prolonged s houting] Poodles.—This species of the canine race, a favorite pet with some ladies, were it not for it sore eyes and some other things, would be universally admired.— The Troy Post gives an inkling of a new breed : Freuch poodles are becoming a prized article in this country. We saw a lady get out of the New York cars recentlv, who carried two out in her aims and led one by a strap ; another animal ‘a two leg- criltor,’ accompanied her, but its face was so much covered with hair, and em- itted such a fragrance, that we could not discern the species. It was probably a ‘cross’ between a muskrat and a human being. We are told that it can talk—in fact, we believe we heard it say distinc- tly,‘dein disgusting.* Whilst engaged in watching the sea, neither the eye nor the mind ever becomes weary. Each successive wave, as it curves its silver foam and dashes on the shore, has some novelty in it. There is no monotony in the motion of the waves, and the mind speculates momentarily on each variety of motion and form, finding in all an inexhaustible fund (or amuse- ment, excitement, pleasure, and wonder. It is no less true than remarkable, thlh the ocean is the only substancs which, in its movements, has not a wearying effect upon the gazer. All other forms, ani- mate or inanimate, may amuse for a mo- ment, a minute, or an hour; Lu* their charm is quickly gene. Booth, the tragedian, had the misfor- tune to have his nose broken by Tom Flynn, some years since. A lady once said to him, 'I like your acting and beau- tiful reading, Mr. Booth, but 1 cannot get over your nose.’ ‘No wonder, madam,’ replied he ‘the bridge is gone !’ I old You So.—‘Wife! wife! our cow’s dead—choked with a tifrnip !’ ‘I told you so ! I always know’d she’d choke herself with them turnips !’ ‘Bet it was a pumpkin—a darned big one.’ ‘Wal, it’s all the same. I know’d all along how it would be. Nobody but a ninny like you, would feed a cow on pump- kins that wasn’t chopt.’ ‘The pumkins was chopt. An 1 ’twnnl the pumpkins nuther, what choked her, ’twas the tray—the end on’t is sticking oat of her mouth now.’ ‘Ugh ! ugh ! there goes my bread tray. No longer ago than yesterday, I cold you the cow’d swallow that tray.’ There is a merchant in Baltimore, who in adopting certain rules for his future guidance, resolved, many years since, that he would never he worth more than $5,- 000. It is said, that in accordance with this resolution, he has given away many thousands of dollars, and not less than $24,000 for the promotion of the Gospel. His donations are made under a assumed name, and very few persons know who the real giver is. How Burning Gas is Made.—Many, we presume, are not familiar with the method by winch the common gas burnt, is made.— The process is simple enough when we un- derstand it, as many of our greatest discove- ries are. Coal gas, or carbnretted hydrogen gas, is made by placing cannel coal in a red liotcyl- ender of clay or iron, and sealing it up tight- ly. A pipe leads off ut one end, and through it the volatile puns of l he coal pass off in I lie form of gas; this passes through lime water before it is allowed to enter the reservoir.— The lime-water absorbs the ammonia and sulphurous gasses contained in the coal; the gas is tlius purified, and after it leaves the lime-water it passes through cold water, which cools and washes it. Before the way to purify coal gas was discovered, the sul- phuric acid gave great trouble; it blackened white painted walls, and burned hangings, &.c. This wny of making gas is now in gen- eral use. It is still the cheapest gas pro- duced. A Cheap Luxury.—As a weary traveller was wending Ins way through the mud, out in n far west region of tli»country, lie discov- ered ahead, n young maiden standing in the door of a small log house. He rode up in front of the house and asked the mnitlen for a drink of water, he drank it, and she being the first woman he had seen for several days offered her n dime for a kiss. The young maiden accepted the offer, and received both the kiss and the dune. The traveller was about to resume his journey, but never be- fore having seen a (lime the maiden asked * What am I to do with the dime?’ You may use it any way you wish,’ he replied, * it is yours.’ ‘That being the case,’ she replied, ‘I’ll give you back the dime and take another kiss.’ ‘Does the Court understand you to say, Mr. Jones, that you saw the editor of the Auger of Freedom intoxicated ?’ ‘Not at all, sir; l merely said that I had seen him frequently so flurried in his mind that he would undertake to cut out copy with the snuffers—that’s all.’ The duties of the employer and the em- ployed are fixed and certain. While the employer should not refuse to pay the la- borer his hire, it is equally the duty of the employed in all cases to perform his labor diligently, and to protect his employer’s interests and property. If the laborer fails to perform these duties, be robs bis employer, just as much as if he were to lake money from his desk. Wrongs may try a good man, but can- not imprint on him a false stamp. A man in earnest finds means, or if he can- not find, creates them. Ycur character cannot be seriously harmed, except by your own acts- If any one speaks evil of you, let your life be so that none will believe him. Jonathan Edwards supposed that God sustained and upheld nature in a similar ! manner to '.hat of a reflection in a mirror —that the Universe was the reflection of; the actual presence of God. In the Michigan legislature some mem- bers not only go for the elitije Maine law, but wish to include within the same stringent provisions a proviso against to- bacco, lea, coffee, sugar, mustard, pepper- sauce and catsup. Few things are necessary for the want? of this life, but it takes an infinite number to satisfy the demands of opinion. Intense mental activity, steadily direc- ted to some leading pursuit, is the source of all distinction. ‘Bones, said Ginger,’ ‘which had you rather ride in—a stage coach or steam- boat ?’ ‘Why I’d rather ride in a coach, bekase if it upsets there you is ; but if de steamboat blows up, whar is you ?’ Why is a inan charged with a crime like types ? Because lie should not be lucked up till the matter is well proved. Yankee Dunning.—An editor tints re- marks: ‘Wagons cannot run without wheels— boats without steam—or a newspaper be car- ried on without funds, no more than a dog can wag his tail when lie lias none. Onr subscribers are all good, but what does n tnaq’s goodness Jo when it don’t do you any good? We have no doubt that every one thinks that all have paid except him, and as we are clever fellows, and this is a small matter, a coup’e of dollars will make no difference. It would not, if it were confined to a dozen, or even a hundred cases, but when the slow fever seizes so many, the complaint is alto- gether too general. As the hull-frog said, ‘It’s fun for you, but it’s death to us.’ Apple Trees near Stone Walls. A writer ia the Journal of Agriculture, says lie has seen orchards in which rows of trees near- est a stone wall, produced more than two rows in the middle of the orchard. He recommends border-walls with trees, where.it tnay be con- venient and desirable, as their roots will ex- tend under them, and use the nourishment that accumulates there, ar.d which is not avail- able to other crons. This plant would be or- namental as well as useful along many of the broad walls on New England farms. ‘I sliali die soon, Cuffy ; 1 must set out on a long journey.’ ‘Berry well, replied Cuffy ; ‘I guess you hnb good go;n# cause its all de way down bill.’ There is a fellow down east whose legs are so crooked that his pantaloons turn hind port before in less than half an hour after lie puts them on. A silver dollar weighs two and a half pen- nyweights less than an ounce ; and it con- tains nine hundred and three parts in one thousand of pure silver, with ninety-seven parts to one thousand of alloy. Abolition or Divobce.— Mrs. E. O. Smith has defined her position on the sub- ject of divorce, in the following terms : For- bid divorce in tolo. 1 would have it erased from the statute-book. People marry at their peril at best; Let them abide the con- sequences. m We have no right to insist upon a form lor the good of society, and then in- terpose its anti buta to annul that farm.— Marriage is good or bud. If it is divine in its nature, it cannot be set aside l*y human laws, l! it be a civil institution, we should Iteware how vve undermine human faith by sanction- ing a breach of contract. If you provide lor the escape of a few individuals from the bond, you prepare the way for the escape of many. If you say that the contract may be abriged m time, to one, you admit it may be to ail.’ Moot Points. Whether the Hebrews ; were not invariably tried by Jewry? Whether public vocalists who sing out of tune ran ho legally arrested for uttering false no'ea ? Whether a blind man can he held liable lor a bill payable at sight ?—Punch. Suppose a ton of chalk is worth five dol- lars, what should a quart of milk sell for? A New York Exchange says, ‘Multiply the chalk hy the distance to the mill, anJ divide by the richness of the cream. Sharp, isn’t he? Economy is a good thing, and should be practised by all, hut it should show itself in denying ourselves—not in opposing others. We see persons spending dollar after dollar one hour, and hi the next trying to stve a penny-piece off a wood-sawyer, coallleaver, or market woman. Such things are dis- graceful, if not dishonest. In New York city there is a congregation of sixteen deal mutes wiili their families, who worship at an Episcopal church. The service is conducted in the sign language, and Trinity church pays the expenses. That man that is too poor to take a paper has bought a long slab-sided dog and has bargained for a couple of hound pups. The total coinage of gol 1 and silver at the United Stutes mint for the calendar year 1852 was 57.896,218, of which nearly $57, 000,000 were gold coin. Those who wish their cows to give large messes of milk in the w inter season, should give them warm drink. The extra trouble will be more than repaid hy the increased quantity of milk. Some crusty, but trite observer, in speaking of the present weather, says : About these days people lay in their cough —about March they wili lay in their coffins.— No wonder undertakers and hearse drivers look so smiling.’ EXCHANGE On England, Ireland and Scotland.

HOLLOWAY’S A person 70 years of age, cured of a bad leg, of thirty years’ standing. Copy of a letterfrom Mr Wm Abba, builder of Cos Ovens, of RushcUflfe, near Huddersfield, dated May 31st, 1851. To Professor Holloway : Sir_I ru tie red for a period of thirty years from a had leg, the result of two or three different accidents at Gas Works ; accompanied by scorbutic symptoms. I had recourse to a variety of medical advice, without deriving any benefit, and was even told that the leg must be amputated, yer, in opposition to that opinion, your pills and ointment have effected a cure in so .short ajtiine, that few who had not witnessed it would credit the fact.

Extract of a letter fr"m Mr Frederick Turner, of Pens- hurst, Kent, dated Dec 13th, 1850. To Professor Hollow ay— Dear Sir—My wife had suffer-’d from bad breasts for more than six months, and during the whole period had tlie best medical attendance, lint all to no use. Having before healed an awful wound in my own leg by your un- rivalled medicine, I determined again to use your Pills and Ointment, and therefore gave them a trial in her case, and fortunate it was I did so, for in less than a month a perfect cure was effected, and the benefit that various oilier branches of my family have derived from their use is really astonishing. 1 now strongly recommend them to all my friends. FREDERICK TURNER. An inflammation in tlie side perfectly cured. Copy of a letter from Mr Francis Arnot, of Brcahouse, Lothian Road, Edinliro’, dated April 29, 1851. To Professor Holloway— Sir—For more than twenty years my wife has been subject, from time to time, to attacks of inflammation in the side, for which she was bled and blistered to a great extent,still the pain could not be reoioved. About four years ago, she sa-.v in the papers, the wonderful cures ef- fected by your Pills and Ointment, and thought that she would give them a trial. To her great astonishment ami delight she got inline iate relief from their use, and ijfter persevering for three weeks the pain in her side was com- pletely cured, and she has enjoyed tlie best of health for the last four years.

  • P 0 E T 11 Y A IIyuin to the NigKt.

    BY T. BUCHANAN BEAD.

    Oh Night! most beautiful, most rare 1 Thou givest the heavens their holiest hue ;

    And through the azure fields of air Bringest down the gentle dew !

    Most glorious occupant of heaven, And fairest of the earth and sea !

    Tho wonders of the sky are given, Imperial Night, to thee.

    For thou, w ith breathless lips apart, Didst stand in that dim age afar,

    And hold up thy trembling heart Messiah's herald-star.

    In Olivet thou heard’st Ilim pray, And wept thy dews in softer light,

    And kissed his sacred tears away ! Thrice blessed, loving Night!

    And thou didst overweigh with sleep The watchers at the sepulchre ;

    And heard’st the asking Mary weep, Till Jesus answered her.

    For this I love thy hallowed reign ! For more than this thrice blest thou art !

    Thou gain’st the unbeliever’s brain By entering at his heart !

    Oh, Night! most regal! most divine ! Thou lift’st the spirit from the dust!

    • God's best and brightest gifts are thine, All thine, and it is just!

    From the American Banner.

    My Country. BY C. S. 1*EKC1VAL.

    There is a name whose sacred spell My heart with rapturous joy can swell,

    Allied to joy divine : Or blind my eyes with gushing tears, And Sll my anxious soul with fears,—

    My country, it is thine!

    The essence of all tender names, The fire that lights all holy flames,

    In that one fond name is found. The loves of parents, brother, friend, And childhood's home, all sweetly blend

    In that melodious sound.

    Its glory is my highest pride, Its darkest shame I fain would hide,

    Or wash with tears away. The brightest hopes of future years Around that glorious name appears—

    My glorious country’s name for aye !

    The love that kindles at the sound No selfish, narrow limits bound,

    Whene’er that name I call, I own no part I love the best— No North, no South, no East, no Wat,

    My Country, all ix all.

    Y A ll I E T Y Very Hungry.

    The following extract of a speech deliv- ered by Mr. Olds, of Ohio, in the House of Representatives, is toq good to be lost :

    Sir: if Frank Pierce comes to the work assigned him by the Democracy of the country, as I have no doubt he will, there will be as big a muss kicked up i.i Wash- ington city on the 4th of March as there was at Mrs. Smith’s house, (as related by my friend, the ‘Buckeye abroad,') when little Jake Smith ran over to Mrs. Brown’s, to tell her that ‘dad was dead ; inarm was drunk ; the old cow had a calf; John had swallowed a pin ; Jim had got the delirium triangles looking at the rora boreax —[laughter]—and that ain’t all neither,’ says Jake. ‘What else, ’pon ’arth, can be the matter,’ inquired Mrs. Brown. ‘Why, Sal broke the butter plate, Susan has split the pancakes, and Toe has sat down in the skalding tailew we had for dipping candles, and one of the Maltese kittens has got his head in the molasses jug, and we can’t get it out— and we are all so darn’d hungry.’— [Shouts and cheers.] Mr. President, in my imagination, the 4ib of March is pas- sing beloie me, and 1 think the Whig Galphin office-holders pouring out of the various government departments, with the tears running down their piteous no» ses, and their lamentation is, ‘that Web- ster is dead, Filinore has (filibustered, Scctt has got a Native Ameiiran calf, North Carolina has swallowed Graham, and Tom Corwin has got the delirium tri- angles looking for Northern Aboliiion voles ! [L md and prolonged cheering.] And that ain’t all, either, Mr. President —for Toombs has broken their butter plate, Gentry has spilt their pancakes, and Seward has set down in the scalding tallow they had for dipping ‘higher law’ candles, and Frank Pierce has got into the Presidential chair, and we can’t get him out ; and we are all so darn’d hun- gry. [Roars of laughter and prolonged s houting]

    Poodles.—This species of the canine race, a favorite pet with some ladies, were it not for it sore eyes and some other things, would be universally admired.— The Troy Post gives an inkling of a new breed : —

    Freuch poodles are becoming a prized article in this country. We saw a lady get out of the New York cars recentlv, who carried two out in her aims and led one by a strap ; another animal ‘a two leg- criltor,’ accompanied her, but its face was so much covered with hair, and em- itted such a fragrance, that we could not discern the species. It was probably a ‘cross’ between a muskrat and a human being. We are told that it can talk—in fact, we believe we heard it say distinc- tly,‘dein disgusting.*

    Whilst engaged in watching the sea, neither the eye nor the mind ever becomes weary. Each successive wave, as it curves its silver foam and dashes on the shore, has some novelty in it. There is no monotony in the motion of the waves, and the mind speculates momentarily on each variety of motion and form, finding in all an inexhaustible fund (or amuse- ment, excitement, pleasure, and wonder. It is no less true than remarkable, thlh the ocean is the only substancs which, in its movements, has not a wearying effect upon the gazer. All other forms, ani- mate or inanimate, may amuse for a mo- ment, a minute, or an hour; Lu* their charm is quickly gene.

    Booth, the tragedian, had the misfor- tune to have his nose broken by Tom Flynn, some years since. A lady once said to him, 'I like your acting and beau- tiful reading, Mr. Booth, but 1 cannot get over your nose.’ ‘No wonder, madam,’ replied he ‘the bridge is gone !’

    I old You So.—‘Wife! wife! our cow’s dead—choked with a tifrnip !’

    ‘I told you so ! I always know’d she’d choke herself with them turnips !’ ‘Bet it was a pumpkin—a darned big

    one.’ ‘Wal, it’s all the same. I know’d all

    along how it would be. Nobody but a ninny like you, would feed a cow on pump- kins that wasn’t chopt.’

    ‘The pumkins was chopt. An 1 ’twnnl the pumpkins nuther, what choked her, ’twas the tray—the end on’t is sticking oat of her mouth now.’

    ‘Ugh ! ugh ! there goes my bread tray. No longer ago than yesterday, I cold you the cow’d swallow that tray.’

    There is a merchant in Baltimore, who in adopting certain rules for his future guidance, resolved, many years since, that he would never he worth more than $5,- 000. It is said, that in accordance with this resolution, he has given away many thousands of dollars, and not less than $24,000 for the promotion of the Gospel. His donations are made under a assumed name, and very few persons know who the real giver is.

    How Burning Gas is Made.—Many, we presume, are not familiar with the method by winch the common gas burnt, is made.— The process is simple enough when we un- derstand it, as many of our greatest discove- ries are.

    Coal gas, or carbnretted hydrogen gas, is made by placing cannel coal in a red liotcyl- ender of clay or iron, and sealing it up tight- ly. A pipe leads off ut one end, and through it the volatile puns of l he coal pass off in I lie form of gas; this passes through lime water before it is allowed to enter the reservoir.— The lime-water absorbs the ammonia and

    sulphurous gasses contained in the coal; the gas is tlius purified, and after it leaves the lime-water it passes through cold water, which cools and washes it. Before the way to purify coal gas was discovered, the sul- phuric acid gave great trouble; it blackened white painted walls, and burned hangings, &.c. This wny of making gas is now in gen- eral use. It is still the cheapest gas pro- duced.

    A Cheap Luxury.—As a weary traveller was wending Ins way through the mud, out in n far west region of tli»country, lie discov- ered ahead, n young maiden standing in the door of a small log house. He rode up in front of the house and asked the mnitlen for a drink of water, he drank it, and she being the first woman he had seen for several days offered her n dime for a kiss. The young maiden accepted the offer, and received both the kiss and the dune. The traveller was about to resume his journey, but never be- fore having seen a (lime the maiden asked

    * What am I to do with the dime?’ You may use it any way you wish,’ he

    replied, * it is yours.’ ‘That being the case,’ she replied, ‘I’ll

    give you back the dime and take another kiss.’

    ‘Does the Court understand you to say, Mr. Jones, that you saw the editor of the Auger of Freedom intoxicated ?’ ‘Not at all, sir; l merely said that I had seen him frequently so flurried in his mind that he would undertake to cut out copy with the snuffers—that’s all.’

    The duties of the employer and the em- ployed are fixed and certain. While the employer should not refuse to pay the la- borer his hire, it is equally the duty of the employed in all cases to perform his labor diligently, and to protect his employer’s interests and property. If the laborer fails to perform these duties, be robs bis employer, just as much as if he were to lake money from his desk.

    Wrongs may try a good man, but can- not imprint on him a false stamp. A man in earnest finds means, or if he can- not find, creates them.

    Ycur character cannot be seriously harmed, except by your own acts- If any one speaks evil of you, let your life be so that none will believe him.

    Jonathan Edwards supposed that God sustained and upheld nature in a similar ! manner to '.hat of a reflection in a mirror —that the Universe was the reflection of; the actual presence of God.

    In the Michigan legislature some mem- bers not only go for the elitije Maine law, but wish to include within the same stringent provisions a proviso against to- bacco, lea, coffee, sugar, mustard, pepper- sauce and catsup.

    Few things are necessary for the want? of this life, but it takes an infinite number to satisfy the demands of opinion.

    Intense mental activity, steadily direc- ted to some leading pursuit, is the source of all distinction.

    ‘Bones, said Ginger,’ ‘which had you rather ride in—a stage coach or steam- boat ?’ ‘Why I’d rather ride in a coach, bekase if it upsets there you is ; but if de steamboat blows up, whar is you ?’

    Why is a inan charged with a crime like types ? Because lie should not be lucked up till the matter is well proved.

    Yankee Dunning.—An editor tints re- marks:

    ‘Wagons cannot run without wheels— boats without steam—or a newspaper be car- ried on without funds, no more than a dog can wag his tail when lie lias none. Onr subscribers are all good, but what does n tnaq’s goodness Jo when it don’t do you any good? We have no doubt that every one thinks that all have paid except him, and as we are clever fellows, and this is a small matter, a coup’e of dollars will make no difference. It would not, if it were confined to a dozen, or even a hundred cases, but when the slow fever seizes so many, the complaint is alto- gether too general. As the hull-frog said, ‘It’s fun for you, but it’s death to us.’

    Apple Trees near Stone Walls. A writer ia the Journal of Agriculture, says lie has seen orchards in which rows of trees near- est a stone wall, produced more than two rows in the middle of the orchard. He recommends border-walls with trees, where.it tnay be con- venient and desirable, as their roots will ex- tend under them, and use the nourishment that accumulates there, ar.d which is not avail- able to other crons. This plant would be or- namental as well as useful along many of the broad walls on New England farms.

    ‘I sliali die soon, Cuffy ; 1 must set out on a long journey.’

    ‘Berry well, replied Cuffy ; ‘I guess you hnb good go;n# cause its all de way down bill.’

    There is a fellow down east whose legs are so crooked that his pantaloons turn hind port before in less than half an hour after lie puts them on.

    A silver dollar weighs two and a half pen- nyweights less than an ounce ; and it con- tains nine hundred and three parts in one thousand of pure silver, with ninety-seven parts to one thousand of alloy.

    Abolition or Divobce.— Mrs. E. O. Smith has defined her position on the sub- ject of divorce, in the following terms : For- bid divorce in tolo. 1 would have it erased from the statute-book. People marry at their peril at best; Let them abide the con- sequences. m We have no right to insist upon a form lor the good of society, and then in- terpose its anti buta to annul that farm.— Marriage is good or bud. If it is divine in its nature, it cannot be set aside l*y human laws, l! it be a civil institution, we should Iteware how vve undermine human faith by sanction- ing a breach of contract. If you provide lor the escape of a few individuals from the bond, you prepare the way for the escape of many. If you say that the contract may be

    abriged m time, to one, you admit it may be to ail.’

    Moot Points. Whether the Hebrews ; were not invariably tried by Jewry?

    Whether public vocalists who sing out of tune ran ho legally arrested for uttering false no'ea ?

    Whether a blind man can he held liable lor a bill payable at sight ?—Punch.

    Suppose a ton of chalk is worth five dol- lars, what should a quart of milk sell for? A New York Exchange says, ‘Multiply the chalk hy the distance to the mill, anJ divide by the richness of the cream. Sharp, isn’t he?

    Economy is a good thing, and should be practised by all, hut it should show itself in denying ourselves—not in opposing others. We see persons spending dollar after dollar one hour, and hi the next trying to stve a penny-piece off a wood-sawyer, coallleaver, or market woman. Such things are dis- graceful, if not dishonest.

    In New York city there is a congregation of sixteen deal mutes wiili their families, who worship at an Episcopal church. The service is conducted in the sign language, and Trinity church pays the expenses.

    That man that is too poor to take a paper has bought a long slab-sided dog and has bargained for a couple of hound pups.

    The total coinage of gol 1 and silver at the United Stutes mint for the calendar year 1852 was 57.896,218, of which nearly $57, 000,000 were gold coin.

    Those who wish their cows to give large messes of milk in the w inter season, should give them warm drink. The extra trouble will be more than repaid hy the increased quantity of milk.

    Some crusty, but trite observer, in speaking of the present weather, says :

    About these days people lay in their cough —about March they wili lay in their coffins.— No wonder undertakers and hearse drivers look so smiling.’

    Here is your Remedy!

    HOLLOWAY’S A person 70 years of age, cured of a bad leg, of

    thirty years’ standing. Copy of a letterfrom Mr Wm Abba, builder of Cos Ovens,

    of RushcUflfe, near Huddersfield, dated May 31st, 1851. To Professor Holloway :

    Sir_I ru tie red for a period of thirty years from a had leg, the result of two or three different accidents at Gas Works ; accompanied by scorbutic symptoms. I had recourse to a variety of medical advice, without deriving any benefit, and was even told that the leg must be amputated, yer, in opposition to that opinion, your pills and ointment have effected a cure in so .short ajtiine, that few who had not witnessed it would credit the fact.

    (Signed) WILLIAMS AU1SS. The truth of this statement ran be verified by W P

    England, Chemist, 13 Market Street, Huddersfield.

    A dreadful bad breast cured in one month. Extract of a letter fr"m Mr Frederick Turner, of Pens-

    hurst, Kent, dated Dec 13th, 1850. To Professor Hollow ay—

    Dear Sir—My wife had suffer-’d from bad breasts for more than six months, and during the whole period had tlie best medical attendance, lint all to no use. Having before healed an awful wound in my own leg by your un- rivalled medicine, I determined again to use your Pills and Ointment, and therefore gave them a trial in her case, and fortunate it was I did so, for in less than a month a perfect cure was effected, and the benefit that various oilier branches of my family have derived from their use is really astonishing. 1 now strongly recommend them to all my friends. FREDERICK TURNER.

    An inflammation in tlie side perfectly cured. Copy of a letter from Mr Francis Arnot, of Brcahouse,

About four years ago, she sa-.v in the papers, the wonderful cures ef- fected by your Pills and Ointment, and thought that she would give them a trial. To her great astonishment ami delight she got inline iate relief from their use, and ijfter persevering for three weeks the pain in her side was com- pletely cured, and she has enjoyed tlie best of health for the last four years.
