- ... Ms-lPT
BY A MEXICAN rwe
Wenw their watch fires through tnemgro ,
Ltrht up the far horizon's verge ;
We heard at dawn ike gathering fight.
Swell like the distant ocean surge
The thunder-tramp o mounted hordes
From distance sweeps a "bounding sound,
As Aztoo's twenty thousand swords,
And clanking chargers shake tlie ground.
A conlnow all is hushed again
How strange that lull before the storm!
That fearful silence o'er the plain
Halt they their batde-line to form?
It booms again again again,
Jknd through its thick and thunderous
shock
The war-screams seem to pierce the brain
As charging squadrons interlock.
Columbia' sons of different race
proud Aztec and brave Alleglnn,
Are grappled there in death-embrace.
To rend each other, man to man1.
The storm clouds lift, and throcgli flieltate
Dissolving in the moontide light,
I see the sun of Aztec blaze
Upon her banner, broad and bright!
And on stilt on, her ensigns wave.
Flinging abroad each glorious fold:
While drooping round each sullen stave
Cling Alleghan's but half unrolled.
Cut stay! that shout has stirred the air,
I sec the stripes I sec the stars
O God! who leads the phalanx there,
Beneath these fearful .meteor bars?
"Old Zack" "Old Zack" thewar cry
ratiles
Amid those men of iron tread,
Ae ruoig "Old Fritz," in Europe's battles,
When thus his host great Frederick led!
And where, 0 where is Aztec? where,
As now the rush of Allcghan
Resistless tramples to despair
The ranks of our victorious van?
Still charging onward ever ever.
They shatter now our central might,
Where halt our bravest lances shiver,
Still struggling to maintain the fight!
Still struggling, from the carnage dire
To snatch our patriot chief away
Who crushed by famine, steel and fire,
Yet claims as his the desperate day;
That day whose sinking light is shed
O'er Buena Vista's field, to tell
Where round the sleeping and the dead
Stalks conquering Taylor's sentinel.

HOTEL for IN V A LIDS
AT PITTSBURGH.
Drs. Speer and Iguhn,
Ml E object of this establishment is
B to supply a want greatly felt by re
spectable travellers on our western high
ways by residents, without family, ta
ken sick and by patients from the sur
rounding towns and country who resort
to this place for relief Irom surgical and
other diseases. Such have often suffered
from the want of the various comforts
and attentions so necessary and agreeable
to the sick, and from careiess and un
faithful nurses; and been subjected to
heavy and unreasonable charges.
Invalids will here be provided with
constant, faithful and comfortable atten
dance, snd at a rate much below the usu
al charges.
While the care of both physicians will
be extended to every variety of disease,
it is intended by Dr. Speer, to give spe
cial attention to
ALL SURGICAL DISEASES,
PARTICULARLY TO
DISEASES OF THE EYE.
To these branches of his profession
he has given a large share of his atten
ion for the last twenty-five years, and
he will continue to devote to them the
experience acquired by a constant prac
tice during that time.
The Hotel for Invalids is not an exper
iment. lis establishment is suggested
not only as necessary to supply an evi
dent want in this city, in ihe entire ab
sence of any special provision for the
sick, but is warranted also by the success
of similar institutions at Cincinnati and
New Orleans the former under the care
of Drs. Taliaferro, Marshall and Strader
the latter under that of Dr. Stone.
The building selected for the purpose
is situated at the ccrner of Federal and
Robinson streets, in Allegheny city, ad
joining the city of Pittsburgh. It is
commodious and roomy, an J " furnished
with all accommodations necessary for
fie sick.
Applications for admission to be made
to the subscribers, at their office on Penn
street, Pittsburgh, or at the establishment.

esteem it a pleasure to be able to recom
mend this medicine, as the best calcula

colds, sore-throat, asthma, and all affec

nal acquaintance with Dr. Jayne, we
know that he is no quack, and his medi

Another New Year!
Amid the ever succession of periods,
once more has revolved around. How
fraught with food for thought are those
"mile stones'1 in human life!
Change after Change
how many the changes that a retrospect
of the past 12 months will conjure up to
view!
The Struggling Poor
have in some instances been made happy
by the dawn of brighter days; while
those basking in the
Sunshine of Prosperity
have had to taste the bitter pangs of
want. How ought these vivid lessons
from off life's truthful page to stir up
the hearts of all
to goodly deeds,
And thoughts of sympathy!
Death, too, has nol been idle; but has
helped to make up the changes of the
pasl year. And where health once took
up its abode, disease now holds iis thral
dom. But how oft is ill health attributed to
Negligence or Prejudice,
which induces the suffering invalid to re
fuse using the rightful remedy which his
own peculiar malady calls for. The ex
perience of more than
Ten Thousand Trials
proves the unequalled value of that pea
sant and mosi celebrated medicine,
IVislar's Balsam of Wild

iis worst form can be cured by Wistar's
Balsam of WiU Cherry."
Lexington, Mo., Jan, 21, 1815.
Benjamin Phelps Dear Sir: I taka
great pleasure in communicating to yon
what 1 consider an extraordinary euro
effected on my daughter, about 11 years
of age, by Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry. About the first of September
last, my daughter was taken sick, and
attended by several physicians, whose
prescriptions were iuelfectual, or seemed
to do no good. She was attended with
a constant cough and pain in the breast.
Her physicians and all who seen her,
came to the conclusion that she was in a
confirmed stage of Consumption. I made
no other calculation than for her to die.
Bui as she commenced taking the Balsam
she began to improve, and continued so
until her health was restored, and is now
entirely well. With a view of benefiting
those who may be similarly afflicted, I
take pleasure in recommending ibis med
icine to the confidence of the public.
Yours, with respect,
EDWARD STRATTON.
