RAISING THE DEAD.
A TeW'nights ago a medical friend of ours was
quietly .sitting down in bis office after the cares and
fatigues of the day, enveloped in a capiciobs dress*
• mgtgown and- puffing uwuy at a highly perfumed
.oigaty.Mid meditating, upon tho mutabilty of human
.affaire, when ho heard voices in the street and soon
V knocking at his door. . Leisurely getting up and
’ opening it, he discovered three men, two of them in
very thick coats, will) round glazed caps' upon their
beads, and clubs in their hands, and the third, who
‘ was supported between them, was in apparently a
’dving condition, groaning out, 11 Oh!. I’m killed, I’m
'klllcdl”
; Dbclhor,” exclaimed one of tho vvo4clnrien;* , lhis
'■■irian says he’s kilt, and we want you to examine him.
nnd sbo if his story is.correct or no.*’ -
“ Oh, I’m sure I’m killed,” said tho man.
,** lfyou’re sure-of il* whut'ud you bo seeing the
dpclhcr an*asking him questions for?” said the watch
man. 44 If-youVr dead bo quiet while I tell the-doc
thcr! Ye sce, doclhcr he’s been in a little bit of a
.scrimmage up here an 1 got a bad cut on his pate, an’
,it had bc betlhcr for you to fix it.”
TfUib doctor'assented, and the patient was brought
m.apd deposited in a chair by tho watchmen, who
' went outside while ho examined tho man. He found
that he had an ugly cut oh the forehead which, bled
profusely, and after taking a stich or two, washing
off the blood,- and putting on a piece of adhesive plas
ter,. the doctor told him ho was more frightened
than hurt, and worth a thousand doqd men at that
‘laoment. '
•* Well,'doctor,” said the relieved patient, ** it was
a mighty ugly blow, and knocked me. over as flat as
a shingle, and I thought I was a goner. What is,
your*fee, sir, for fixing me up 7” .
<■ “Five dollars, sir,” said the doctor.
“ That’s your regular fee, is it?”,
“ Yes, air* for a case of the kind.’*
“ Well,' doctor here's'a V, and l*m much obliged
to you to boot. Now, sir, will you bo kind enough
to tell mo where that little door at the side of your
office leads to ?”
“Cerloinlly,’-replied the doctor pocketing his fee,
“ that leads into an alley.”
“ And where dges that alley lead to 7”
“ It leads into the street.”
“ And will you permit me to go out that way 7”
“Cortoinly,*»ir,” replied the doctor, “any. way you
choose, sir.’! ' > ‘
“ I am very much obliged to you, sir,” said the
patient/* and if I ever have need of medical ser
vices, I shall always call on you. Good night doc*
lor.”
“ Good night, sir,” said the doctor, and the patient
walked but of. the side door.
. A moment.after, the doctor hoard a voice at the
alley gate saying, “Hullow, watchmen, what ore you
dping there 7”
“Waiting for a main that got kilt, sir,an* his head
split open; (ho doclher’s fixin’ *im up, and . we're
waiting to take him to the watch house for fighting
and disturbing the pace.”
“Oh, ho I” said the voice, “ that’s U,is it! Well,
the doctor’s not got near through yet—lt's a pretty
bad job. Won’t you go and lake a drink and come
back again 7” .
. “ Thank ye, no; we'll not dar'to lave, for fear he’d
gel away from ux.”
“Ah, ha,” exclaimed tho voice, and tho_owncr of
it walked .off. ...
.The doctor began to feel as if he had acted a little
hastily, and perhaps got himself into a scrape; and
in afew. minutes a watchman poked his head into
the door and commenced, M Well, doclher, is ho!’—
but seeing the doctor alone in the room, exclaimed,
“ Where!* the man 7”
“ What, the man you brought hero 7”
«YIV!. ’ .
“ Oh, be’* gone—went some time ago.” . *
. “Gone,and where ia he gone to?”
“ He'may have gone to the devil for all 1 know,”
replied'the 'doctor coolly.
M How did ho get out 7” “
“ By the back alley.”
“And where does the alley lead to?”
a Into the street”
“Oh, thunder and turf! and sure that was the
blackguard that axed us to go dhrink wid *im,” said
the watchman, turning to his companion, “ and we
didn't know him. Doclhcr, he's the last dead subject
we'llever bring for you to work over. Como, Jim,
maybe we’ll overtake him.” Saying which, the door
was closed, and the pair of “carrier pigeons” retired
in great discomfiture.
'WHO 18 SHE t
There Is not a question that betrays greater anxie
ty-'than f* Who is-she?** Anything beautiful in a
faif - stranger instantly strikes, and inquiry is ever
lastingly,liummcd. The ideas of beauty are almost
as various.as the different'lines of the human
countenance. Feeling docs not follow at all times
those ideas,but llic’sacrcd sncH of sympathy influen
ces the heart, and we are oftentimes in love without
admiring. Someamotcurs (hero ore who prefer the
display of a well-turned ankle to all other considera
tions, while many are in raptures at the dignity of
love, 1 ' of action, and graceful steps, the beaming
eye,or the heavenly smile; but there are thousands
whose sullen soles, like “ lamps in suptilchcrcs," are
unmoved qy either. Peace to alt such 1 the power of
attraction grows with tho intemity of heal; and
those that have it not, cannot expect to bo entertained
when they cannot contribute to enjoyment.

LOVELINESS*
Young ladle®, it is not your neat (]rcaa,yoiu ex

the attention of men of sense. It ia yonr character
they study, If you are trifling ond loose in yonr
conversation—no matter if yon are beautiful as an
■engel—yon have no attraction for them* It is (he true
loveliness of yonr nature that wins ond continues to
retain the affections of the heart. Young ladies sadly
miss it who labor to Improve their outward look®,
while they bestow not a thought on their minds,—
Fools may be‘won by gew-gaws.and thd fashionable
by showy dresses j bnl the substantial are never
caught by such, traps. Use pleasant and agreeable
language, and though you inoy not be courted by the
fop and asp, the good , and truly groat will love to
linger in your presence.

COLLECTING CHOICE SEEDS*
As, t|io .season for plantibg.is fast,approaching, the
following remarks in regard to the selection of seeds,
which-we copy from the -Boston Cultivator, will no
doubt bouaelbl to many of’our readers. “There is
no. way.in which improvement can bo made in agri*
cuilure, at so small an expense, os by collecting seeds
of a- superior variety oft vegetables, trees and scions
of superior fruits, and superior animals.. It costs no
more to raise, a .crop" of an excellent variety, if
w.d except'.tlio harvcsting'bfa large crop, to culliyalo
bbperior fruit; dr keep uie best' animals, th'an to.dU
tend to those, of interior.kinds which yield 25’ 0r.30
per cent loss. '
There is a vast difference in different varie ties'of
vegetablesin some cases by the.expense ofone dol'
lur, in time or money, in getting a superior variety,
there may bo ten or twelve dollars added to the valho
of a crop on an aero of .land;! and a valuable crop
being once obtained, perhaps it con be continued for
many years,affording an'annual odvanlagei in return
for a little attention to this mode of improvement.;
In planting different varieties of ..potatoes on tho
same land, and under the same treatment, wo find*
thatsomokindsyicldalinosttwice as much as others,
while there is no material difference in tho. price.—
Again, some kinds that do not rol, ate how. worlha
dollar a barrel more than those subjc'cl'tb decay; and
which wore sold while tho price was low. ' 1 ‘ .
. Sometimes a single car of corn may bo worth more
dollars to (ho fanner than the rows it'cuntoins; U
may even make a difference to (hat amount annually*
Some oats mildiow almost invariably, whilst others
arc almost wholly free from this affection. There is
also a. vast difference in the weight of oats; soroo
weighing almost twice as much as others, ond yield
ing as many bushels. ■ •••
Some squashes, on account of their parity,, will
soil twice as. t high in the market as others, to say
nothing bf.the advantage of having a superior article
for one’s own use.
Il is about tho same with all other vegetables: a
gardener would do belter by paying a dollaran ounce
for. cabbage seed of a pure variety than lb hayo poor
seed given him.’- And we have known cases in which
cultivators would-have paid, that price cheerfully
rather than run the risk ofsoying poor seed*
There' is a great variety of'turnips, some adopted
to-very early use, others late in-succession in tho
summer; some for fall, others for early winter, and a
few that keep us aparsnip for spring use; there Is a
great advantage in having kinds adapted to their pe
culiar season.
Farmers, gnrdners, seedsmen, and seed growers,
all pay 100 Utile attention to this subject. Wo ought
to have professional seed growers, who will attend to
the business in a scientific manner, collecting all the
varieties of vegetables for experiment, as a nursery
man dpcs with his specimen orchard. And the seed
grower should select only (he best vegetables to pro
pagate from, for the same reason that a stock-breeder
selects for this purpose his finest animal.^
The seed business, as.a general thing, is not prop
erly managed, and there is fault in all concerned; the
seed-grower and the purchaser. The purchaser aims
too much at buying cheap, some make this the only
criterion.. Then the dealer is induced to buy.cheap,
and to this end ho may sometimes import seeds, at a
low price, and not offer tho. seed grower enough to
pay for raising. Foreign seeds are-oflcii worthless
or false to their marks. Wo have no doubt that
foreign seed-doadcrs send to (his country their oldj
worthless seeds. „
Cultivators should encourage tho growth of good
seeds by being willing to pay fair prices. Dealers
should buy such seeds as are good and true, and en
courage growers on whom they can rely, not abandon
them because they can get seeds of a doubtful char ;
actor a little-cheaper elsewhere; The cultivator
should hold,the vender responsible fur the seed he
sells, and then ho will bo glad to. buy of those whom
lie.knows, in order to hold them responsible. \Wo
need improvement In this business, and until it is
made, all concerned will suffer.
Now tho seed grower has no encouragement, as
ho has-to compete with old worthless seeds, in the
hands of unprincipled dealers in foreign markets.—
The dealer here buys low and ho must sell low; and
the purchaser tries to buy as cheap as possible, as ho
has not sufficient confidence In tho article he buys to
pay a good price.
“Truth is Strange—Stranger than Fiction.'.’—
The Franklin (Tenn.) Review has been furnished
with the particulars in relation to a marriage which
took .place in tho county of Williamson, in that Slate
in the month of September last, which shows decep
tion and hypocrisy of tho worst kind, and exhibits a
baser fraud upon unsuspecting innocence than any
.thing that has lately come to oar knowledge in real
life. The Review says:
. “ A man, who called himsclfJohn D. Walton, came
to.this county a stranger, some time in 1847.. He
.pretended to bo deaf and dumb, and under such dis
guise courted and married an amiable and estimable
young lady, a‘deaf mute, I—Miss 1 —Miss Elizabeth N. Alston
—of highly respectable family', connexions, and suc
ceeded in obtaining about 9100 of her estate from (icr
guardian. . Ho has since lived in this county and in
Nashville, working at the shoo and boot making bu
siness, and keeping as well as possible his assumed
character ofan honest man.
“ It appears that ho first married in North Caroli
no, and afterwards removed to McNoiry county,
Tcnn. There ho left his wife and went to Gibson
county, Tcnn., and married another, with whom ho
moved to Holly Springs, Mississippi. Tho friends
and relatives of his second wife finding that ho had
been previously married, and had a largo family liv
ing in MoNairy, immediately pursued him with a
view of arresting him, but ho succeeded in making
his escapo from thorn. His last effort was in (his
county, Williamson* Tcnn., where bo married and
acted out his roscality as already staled, robbing tho
unfortunate Indy whom ho married, of peace huppi*
ness, and property, destroying her hopes, ond blight
ing all her prospects by his heartless villainy.
“ Within somo two or threo weeks past, the facts
became known.that ho had a wife and many children
in4McNairy county. These devolopompnls led to
further Inquiry, and lie was in consequence arrested
a few days ago, on a warrant for bigamy, near No
, Icnsvillc, 12 miles from this place, but unfortunately
made Ilia escape. His real name is Edward P. Green
—ho speaks with a slow and course voice, and has a
down looking countenance. His first wife was a
Krenodic—he morried her in Guilford county, North
1 Carolina. His second was <l widow Word, a daugh
ter of Mr. Farris, of Gibson county, Tcnn., near
Trenton.”
A Drunkard's Thirst.— lt is a remark of Bishop
Tillotson, (hat no man is born with a swearing con*
stitntion. It may bo added (hat no man is born with
a thirsty constitution; or os a constitution requiring
tho uso of intoxcntlng liquors. There is nothing
constitutionn) about It. It is. (ho result of habit, tho
more tho tippler di-inks, (ho more he thirsts. And
after ho has become a habitual drinker, so that ho
cannot do without it, whoro con language bo found
to describe his thirst ? Wo have seen men under its
influence, who . lovo rum better than tholr wives or
children—better than reputation or life—better than
earthly happiness or the Joys of Heaven. Those who
arc temperate havo no conception of it. It is intole*
rablc, insupportable, beyond (lie powers of description.
Before its withering influence every soda) affection
droops and-dies, Before its searching, Us; burning
presence, Innocence, health, happiness prosperity,
decency, honor, reputation, and every virtue which
ennobles and elevates man, is prostrated in (ho dust,

ting mo,” said a bright-eyed girl to her sweetheart
the other day. “ Yes, Butf| I have been for gelling
you these two years.”
« I’m afraid,” said a lady to her husband, “ that I
am going to have a stiff nock.” 11 Not at all Impro.
bablo, my dear,” replied her spouse, “I hove seen
strong symptoms of it ever since wo wore married.
“Time is Monev,”—So Franklin observed. It,is
cry true, and some people lake plenty of it to pay
heir debts. . • . ' '

ALTHOUGH the groat fatality of Pulmonary dis

tion of approbia medicorum —the disgrace of physi
cians—to this class of diseases; and that there are
stages in their progress, which having once been
reached, recovery is doubtful. Still no one should
despair. The writings of physicians, who have given
to these affections particular attention, abound with
many recorded , cases of recovery when the patient
bad reached a seeming hopeless stage of the disease;
and there is, at this time, a remedy prepared in Phil
adelphia which has met'wilh the most triumphant
and cheering success ih“tho most obstinate forms of
Throat and Pulmonary diseascs-r-so as to have ob
tained tho sanction and employment in the practice
of many physicians.
Allusion is had to Thomson’s Compound Syrup of
Tar and Wood Naphtha—the preparation of one,
who, having given to disoases of (he lungs and their
means of euro, the most careful and thorough, alien-
lion, presented to the public this groat remedy.
