• BEWARE of the man who loves not music,
flowers, and the crying of a child.
Do thou but do thy best, and then thou.
may'st defy the devil to do his worst.
Fr has been said that to make home hap
py, the husband must be somewhat deaf, and
the wife somewhat blind.
To get, angry at nothing, and to be sur
prised at nothing, are said to constitute two
steps toward perfection.
MILLIONS of blades of grass make a. mead
ow, and millions and millions of grains of
sand make a mountain; the ocean is made of
water and life of minutes.
-A YOUNG man in New York having adver
tised for a wife, received word from eighteen
married men that be might have theirs.
" MA, didn't the minister say last "Sunday,
that sparks flew upward 2" "Yes, dear,; how
came you to think of it?" " Because yes
terday I saw cousin Sally's spark staggering
down the street, and fall downward."
IT takes a good many shovel fulls of earth
to bury the truth. Bury as deep as men may,
it will have a rising, notwithstanding. They
may roll a great stone, and seal the grave
wherein it laid, and set a watch upon it, still,
like its Lord, it comes forth again at its ap
pointed time.
THE last words of the Old Testament are a
fearful threatening " Lest I come and smite
the earth with a curse." The last words of
the New Testament are a benediction : "The
grace of the Lord Jesus, Christ be with you
all.—Amen."
• "Goon mawning, Miss Prim ; htar's your
health since you took the wataw cuaw ?"
- "Much bettaw, I thank you; maw says
I'm much stoutaw and freshaw, she shall
•
send me again this summaw."
A PUBLISHER of a newspaper out West, in
the first issue of his journal, returns thanks
to those who loaned him the pecuniary nieans,
and gratitude_ to Heaven that_ there isno-law
in the State enforcing imprisonment for debt.
• •AT a social party one evening, the question
was put, " What is Religion ?" "Religion,"
replied one of the party, " religiokis an in
surance against fire in the. next" world, for
whim honesty is the best policy."
LET no be too proud to work. Let
no man be ashamed of a hard fist or 'a sun-
Unica countenance. Let hini -be ashamed
only of ignorance and sloth. Let-him only
be ashamed of idleness and-dishonesty.
GRATITUDE is the fairest blossom which
springs from the soul ; and the heart of man
knoweth none more fragrant.
THE following toast was recently given at
a fishing frolic :
" The Ladies—May we kiss all the girls
we please, and please all the girls we kiss."
AN exchange paper says : The best safety
valve to a boiler is a sober engineer. Con
gress may legislate till doomsday, but as long
as the officers carry too much steam, the boats
will - follow - their example.
"On, dear!" blubbered an urchin who had
been suffering from the application of a birch.
" Oh, my ! they tell me that forty rods make
a furlong, but I can tell a bigger story than
that. Let 'em get such a plaguy Hain' as
I've bad, and they'll find out that one rod
mikes an acher."
AN exchange says, a little boy had made a
stool, no two of the legs of which were of a
length.. While trying in vain to make it
Stand upon the floor, he looked into his moth
er's face and asked, " Does God see every
thing ?" "Yes,"rny child." "Well," replied
the son, "I guess he will laugh when he sees
this stool."
AN editor writing from the Red Sweet
Springs says : "They are delightful ; and the
baths are really charming. But at this place
editors are forced down on an equality with
lawyers, doctors, and members of Congress
—which I don't like. In fact, dead heads
are not recognized in this part of the State."
IN youth hearts are trumps ; in manhood
diamonds and clubs, according to circumstan
ces; but after all,, spades are sure to win
when the game of life closes.
"!JOHN, did Mrs. Green get the medicine I
ordered ?" "I guess so," replied John, "for
I saw crape on the door the next morning."
FRIENDSHIP is more firmly secured by len
ity towards failings, than attachment to ex
cellencies. The former is valued as a-kind
ness which cannot be claimed, the latter is
exacted as the payment of debt to merit.
IF men could find the fabled fountain that
is said to restore youth and health and beauty,
with what eagerness they would rush to drink
its waters. Yet with scarcely less eagerness
do they now rush to drink of waters that
bring upon them premature .old age and dis
ease and loathsome ugliness.
YOUNG ladies, if they knew how disgusting
to a man slovenlesa is, and how attractive are
displays of neatness and taste, would array
themselves in the simplicity and cleanliness
Of . the lilies of the field; or, if able to indulge
in costly attire, they would study the harmo
nious blending of colors which nature ex
hibits in all her works.
.• •
A girl of - good taste and habits of neatness,
can make a more fascinating toilet with a
shillin:calieo dress, a few ribbons and laces,
and such ornaments as she can gather from
the garden, than a vulgar, tawdry creature
Who is worth millions,, and has the jewelry
and Wardrobe of a princess.

ATEDICAL SCIENCE.
_L The history ot.'"FIOGELA.ND'S GERMAN BIT
TERS,"-the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of LIVER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishing discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to which these Bitters are applicable arc so universal, that
there are but few of our friends' who may not test their
virtues in their own families or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
one remedy among the many advertised medicines, deser
ving the public commendation. It is a fact that, in the
minds of many persons, a - prejudice exists against what
are called Patent Medicines; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an array cf tes
timony to support it as Rol:gland's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in
their own families. Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most eminent, take it; why should
not your Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you are sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters.
These Bitters are prepared and sold by Dr. C. M, Jack
son, No. AIS Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa., and by drug
gists and storekeepers in every town and village in the
United States, Canada; West Indies, and South America,
at 76 cents Per "bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle.

GROVER & BAKER'S' CELEBRA
TED FAMILY SEWING MACIIINES.
.New Styles—Prices frontsso to $125. _Extra
Charge of $5 for Hemmers.
495 Broadway, New York.
730 Chestnut street, ..Philadelphia.
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they nem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
scam by their own, operation, without recourse to the
band-needle, as Is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sowing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management;
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adTbstment. •
As evidence cs the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROVER, & BAKER Snwora MACHINE COMPANY
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
TESTIMONIALS
"Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines In my
family for nearly a year and a-half ; I take pleasure in
commending it as every way reliable for the purpose for
which it is designed—Family Sevring."-31rs. Joshua
Leavitt, wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of E. Y. Indepen
dent.
"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in my family for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
is easily adapted to every .variety .of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."—Mrs. Elizabeth
Strickland, wife of Rev. Dr. Strickland, Editor of 11 7 . Y.
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines,
,I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sewing."—Mrs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Eddor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a GROVER & Baxan. Sewing Machine for
two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of fam
ily sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have
been worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The
Machine is• easily kept in order, and. easily used."—Mrs.
.4. B. Whipple, wife of Bev. Geo. Whipple, New York.
"Your Sewing Machine has been in use in my family
the past two years, and.the ladies request me to give you
their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as la
bor-saving qualities in the performance of family and
household sewing."—Robert Boorman, New York.'
"For several months we have used Grover & Baker's
Sewing Machine, and have come to the conclusion that ev
ery lady who desires her sewing beautifully and quickly
done. would he most fortunate in possessing one of these
reliable and indefatigable 'iron needle-women,' whose com
bined qualities of beauty, strength and simplicity, are in
valuable."‘f. IV: Morris, daughter of Gen. Geo. P. Morris,
Editor of the Home Journal. •
Extract of a letter from Taos. It. LE.i.VrrT, Esq., an
American gentleman, now resident in Sydney, New South
Wales, dated January 12, 1858:
"I had a tent made, in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewing done with
one.of Grover & Baker's Machines; and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams, sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky hides, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
lle would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of Woes unnumbered: "—Prof. North.
"I take pleasure in saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. 'After trying and returning others, I have three of
them in operation in my different places , and, after four
years' trial, have no fault to find."—.T. II Hammond, Sen
ator of South Carolina.
"My wife has bad one of Grover, & Baker's Family Sew
ing Machines for some time, and lam satisfied it is-one of
the best labor-saving machines that has been invented. I
take much pleasure in recommending it to the public."
J. G. Harms, Governor of Tennessee.
"It is a beautiful thing, and puts everybody into an ex
citement of gooddiumor. Were I a Catholic, I should in
sist upon Saints Grover and Baker having an eternal holi
day in commemoration of their good deeds for humanity."
—Cassius M.-Clay.
"I think it by far the best patent in use. This Machine
can be adapted from the finest cambric to the heaviestcas
si mere. It sews stronger, faster, and more beautifully
than one can imagine. If mine could not be replaced,
money could.not buy it."—Mrs..T. G.Brown, Nashville, Tenn.
"It is speedy, very neat, and durable in its work; is ea
sily understood and kept in repair. I earnestly recom
mend this Machine to all my acquaintances and others."—
Mrs. M. _A. Forrest, .11Amphis, Tenn.
"We find this Machine to work to our satisfaction, and
With pleasure recommend it to the public, as we believe the
Grover & Baker to be the best Sewing Machine in use."—
Deary Brothers, Allison fa, Tenn.
"If used exclusively for family purposes, with ordinary
care, I will wager they will last one 'three score years and
ten,' and never get out of fix."—John Erskine, Nashville,
Tenn.
"I have had your Machine for several weeks, and am
perfectly satisfied that the work it does is the best and most
beautiful that ever was made."—Maggie Ai»zison, Nash
vale, Tenn.
"I use my Machine upon coats, dressmaking, and fine
linen stitching, and the work is admirable—far better than
the best hand-sewing, or any other machine I have over
seen.7—ltcy B. Thompson, Nashville, Tenn.
"I find the work the strongest and most beautiful I have
ever seen, made either by hand or machine, and regard the
Grover & Baker Machine as one of the greatest blessings to
our sex."—Mrs. Taylor, A'ashrille, Tenn.
"I have one of Grover & Baker's Sewing - Machines in
use in my family, and find it invaluable. I can confidently
recommend it to all persons in want of a machine."—G. T.
Thompson, NaShrille, Tenn.
I. take pleasure in certifying to the utility of the Gro
ver & Baker Sewing Machines. I have - used one on almost
every description of work for months, and find it much
stronger and better in every respect than work done by
hand."—Mr.s.. D. W. Wheeler. Nashville, Tenn.
"I - would be unwilling to dispoSe of my Grover & Baker
Machine for a large amount. could I not replace it again at
pleasure."—Mrs. If. a Scovel, Nashville, Tenn.
"Our two machines, purchased from you, do the work
of twenty young ladies. We with pleasure recommend
the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine to be the best in use."
Stillman cE Co., Memphis, Tenn.
"Tho Grover & Baker Sewing Machine works admirably.
I think the, stitch. and - work far superior to that of any
Sewing Machine I ever saw. On fine work, I think the
Machine would be hard to beat."—.T. Davie, Memphis,
Tenn.
