A Charleston Beauty.
The following is an extract from the
letter of a naval officer on board one
of
the U. S. gunboats near charleston, S. C.
Isaw an angel a few days ago, in the
shape of a beautiful young lady,who came
on board with her father to take the.oath.
Without exception, :he was the most
beautiful being that I ever had the pleas
ore to feast, my eyes upon, When I saw
her come alongside, being officer of the
deck, I rushed to the ganway. and was
very attentive in seeing her safe over the
side, and waiting upon her on the q oar
ter deck. Her father was engaged with
the captain and I took the opportunity to
en;rage in conversation with the charmer
I found her rather modest and diffident,
not having yet made her debut in society
but she did very well. I was at this time
chewing tobacco, which of comae was
very uu gallant on my part. She noticed
it, and what do you think? . Why she
remarked that " She had not been able
to obtain any tobacco for a roal Ion! time
and as for snuff she had nut had a dip
she didn't know when." I, having a
good sized piece in my packet, offered it
to her, when with sparkling oyes and a
beam of joy and delight upon her counte
uauco, she asked if she should have the
whole of it." I answered with a smile,
" certainly," when she took a good sized
quid and commenced chewing and spit
ting with the gusto of an able seaman.
How my idea of beauty vanished ! Only
a few minutes before I was enchanted,
and you can better imagine my thoughts
and feelings after that, than I can write
them. I suppose this seems rather queer
to you ; but many of the poor whites are
just like her, although her father was
very well off in lands and stock.
Influence of Females
It is better for you to pass an evening
once or twice a wcck,in a lady's drawing
room even though the conversation is slow
and you know the girl's songs by heart,
than in a club, tavern, or pit of a theatre.
Ail the amusements of youth to which
virtuous women are not admitted,rely on
it, are deleterious in their nature. All
men who avoid female society have dull
perceptions and are sfupid, or have gross
tastes, and revolt against what is pure.
Your club swaggerers, who arc sucking
the buts of billiurd cues all night, call
female society insipid. Poetry is unin
spiring to a yokel; beauty has no charms
for a blind man ; music does not please a
poor beast who does not know one tune
from another; but, as a true epicure is
hardly ever tired of water, sauce, and
brown bread and butter, I protest I can
sit for a whole night talking to a well
regulated, kindly woman about her girl
'Fanny, or her boy F-ank, and like the
evening's entertainment. One of the
great benefits a man may derive from
woman's society is, that he is bound to
be respectful to her. The habit is of
great good to her. The habit is of great
good to your moral men, depend upon it.
Our education makes us the most emi
nently selfish wen in the worlu. We
fight Cro ourselves,we push for ourselv:s,
we yawn for ourselves, we light our pipes
and say we wont go out, we prefer our
selves and our ease; and the greatest
benefit that comes to man from a woman's
sactety is that he has to think of some
body to whom he is bound to be constantly
attentive and respectful.
A Short Love Story
Here is a story told by one Morgan, a
sea captain, concerning the choice of a
husband at sea,which may afford a profit
able hint to young ladies cu voyayc :
Single ladies often cross the water un
der the especial care of the captain of the
ship, and if a love affair occurs among
the passengers, the eaptaiu is usually the
confidant of one or both parties. A very
fascinating young lady had been placed
under - Morgan's care, and three young
gentlemen fell desperately iu love with
her. They were all equally agreeable,
• and the young lady was puzzled which to
encourage. She asked the captain's ad
vice.
" Come on deck." he said, " the first
day it is perfectly calm ; the centlemen
of course, will all be near you I will
have a boat quietly lowered, and do you
jump overboard, and see which of the
gentlemen will jump after you. I will
take care of you."
A calm day soon came, the captain's
suggestions were followed, and two of the
lovers jumped after the lady at the in
stant'. But between these two the lady
could not decide, so exactly had been
their defotion. She had again consulted
the captain—
",Take the man that dian't jump—
he's the more sensible fellow, and will
malco the best htsband."

"My daughter has sugered . for a year past with a

Nothing afforded any relief until we tried your
SARSAPARILLA, which soon completely cured her."
From Charles P. Cage, Esq., of the widely-known
Gage, Marray f Co, manufacturers of esuundled
papers in Nashua.,
o I hod for several years a very troublesome
humor in my face, which grew coustantly wofse
until it disfigured my features and became an intol
erable atilicuou. I tried almost every thing a man
could of both advice and medicine, but without any
relief whatever, until I took your SARSAPARILLA.
It immediately made my face worse, as you told me
It might for a time; but in a few weeks the new
skin began to form under the blotches, and con
tinued until my face is as smooths as any body's.
and I am without any symptoms of the disease that
I know of. I enjoy xx.rfeet health, and without a
doubt owe it to your SARSAPARILLA...

"For twelve years, I had the yellow Erysipelas
on my right arm, during which dine I tried all the

dreds of dollars worth of medicines. The ulcers
were so bad that the cords became visible, and the

From
_Aare , ey Sickle, Esq., the able editor of the
71inkhantiork Democrat, Pcnneyirania.'
Our only child, about three years of age, was
attacked by pimples on his forehead. They rapidly
spread until they formed a loathsome and virulent
sore, which covered his face, and actually blinded
his eyes for some days. A skilful physician applied
ra
nitte of silver and other remedies, without Any
apparent effect. For fifteen days we guarded his
hands, lest with them ho should tear open the fes
tering and corrupt wound which covered his whole
face. Having tried every thing else we had any
hope from, we began giving your SARSAPARILLA,
and applying the iodide of potash lotion, as you
direct. The sore began to heal when we lust given
the first bottle, and was well when we had finished
the second. The child's eyelashes, which had come
out, grew again, and he is now as healthy and fair
as any other. The whole neighborhood predicted
that tho child must die."

"I find your SAits.trAttim..• a more effectual

From A. J. French, M. D., an eminent physician of

Artm. My dear : I have found your
SARSAPARILLA an excellent remedy for Syphilis,
both of the primary and secondary type, and effec

to other remedies. Ido not know what we can em

ful alterative is required."
Mr. Chas. S. ran Lieu, of New Brunswick, N.J.,
had dreadful ulcers on his legs, caused by the abuse
of mercury, or mercurial disease, which grew more
and more aggravated for years, in spite of every

him. Few cases can be found more inveterate and

DR. VELPAU'S FRENCH . PILLS.—
Ladies, take particular notice. The
real Velpau Female Till. Warranted
French. These pills, so celebrated many
years ago in Paris, for the relief of female
irregularities,and afterwards so notorious
for their criminal employment in the
practice of abortion, are now offered for
sale for the first time in America. They
have been kept in comparative obscurity
from the fact that the originator, Dr. Vet
pun, is a physician in Paris, of great wealth
and strict imiscientious principles and has
withheld them from general use, fest they
should be employed for unlawful purpos
es. In overcoming female obstructions
they seem to be truly omnipotent, burst
ing open the flood gates from whatever
cause may have stopped them, but they
are offered to the public only for legitimate
uses. and all agents are forbidden to sell
them when it is understood that the object
is unlawful.
Sold sit; the Golden Mortar Drug Store,
