A NEW NEGRO SONG.
The bells ring out. and many a shout
Is sounding in the air.
For Rosa May and Sam, to-day
Are made a happy pair;
De two am one, ao now for fun—
Let's dance and sing wid glee,
And cheer de scene wid tamboriue
And bones, right merrily.
Den ding dong —skip along,
De overseer am gone,
And massa's here himself, to cheer
De darkie's wedding morn.
De dance begins— look out for a shine '
Here comes de bride and groom
How swift dey bound at music
Stand back and gib 'em room !
Just watch de bride, and see de pride
Dat kindles in her eye,
When, all in vain, Bahuda Jane
Attempts to pass her by.
Den ding dong—skip along
l)e overseer am gone,
And massa's here himself, to cheer
De datkie's wedding morn.
De dance am done—now ebry one
Am hungry as a horse.
And soon am seen upon de green
A jolly spread of course ;
Dry drink and eat, and song repeat.
Till near de close ob day,
Den satisfied dey kiss de bride,
And tear demselves away.
Den ding dong—skip along,
De overseer am gone,
And massa's here himself, to chper
De merry wedding morn.
AN* IRISH SERMON*, BY FATHER MCLRICO
LAFFERTV. —Airs. Mulvany, ye must die,
although ye're so hale and so hearty, ye
must die, that ye must. And you Mr.
UatTerty, ye must die too, although you
are so lane and so lank that ye scarce
tnake a shadow when the sun shines, you
must die, that ye must. And you, Innish
kirlen. }p must die. although you are so
old and grey-headed, you must die too,
that ye must. And you, too, Teague
MeGinnis, for all you are so rosy
cheeked, and are foriver making love to
the girls at Donnybrook Fair, you must
die ; yes. yes, we must all die. I must
die, too, although I ant the pastor of tiie
parish, and have the care of all your
sowls, 1 must die too; and when I shall
be come up before Goodness, and Good
ness is after saying to me— 4 Father Mul
rico Laffertv, how is your parish on for
thaving, and such like deadly sins V—
• Och, mighty clane, yer honour.' So ye
see it's a good character I shall be giving
Goodness of yes all ; but when Goodness
shall say'to me, ' Father Mulrieo Laffertv,
how have they paid you their Easter
dues V what shall I say to that, ye black
guards, ye ?
One of the richest cases we remember
to have heard of happened a short time
since in a neighboring State, not a thou
sand miles from New Hampshire. A dif
ficulty had occurred, as difficulties some
times will occur between a preacher and :
the choir of his church, which for a con
siderable time deprived the congregation of
the benefits of the services of the above
named orchestra. The delinquents at
length repented, and appeared in full num- !
bers at the usual time of services. The •
parson ascended the pulpit as usual, looked i
about on the congregation, paying particu
lar notice to the unexpected accession to
his hearers, and when the time arrived
for reading the hymn, he rose, and with a
very significant tone, look and air, and
with his eyes fixed upon the recent absen
tees, began—
" Are ye wretches yet alive.
And do you yet rebel."
A rambling correspondent of an East
ern weekly, says of St. Louis: "I have
now been here over one month, and have
come to the following conclusion regard
ing St. Louis. It would be a desirable
place for pleasure, if there were clean
streets, public squares, residents that would
wash their pavements once a year, no
ponds of stagnant water, cool weather,
and a very large musqxtito bar all around
the toivn." 1
A eobler has just located himself at
Spalding, and attracts attention with the
following address outside his shop :
* Surgery performed on old boots and shoes,
by adding of feet, making good the legs,
binding the broken, healing the wounded,
altering the constitution, and supporting
the body with new soles. No cure, no
pay. Advice gratis on the most desperate
vases.'
TITLES.—The Despatch conies out in
favor of Esq., because • it looks well on
the back of a letter, if it means nothing.'
The very reason why we dislike it, and
why we condemn it ; it means nothing, in
truth. The old Roman method is digni
fied, as well as simple. liow would the
following names read in history, accord
ing to the modern custom.
Ilia Excellence, Julius Caesar.
The llun. N uina I'onipilms.
Cornelius Tacitus, Esquire.
Mr. Publius Scipio.
Muster Dionysius llallvcarnassus.
In our republican country, there should
be no titles given, except to otfice holders.
For instance Governors, Judges, Secreta
ires, Generals, Colonels, ex officio.
instead of addressing Hon. John (J. Cal
houn, or Hon. Daniel Webster, the sub
scription should be, 4 John C. Calhoun,
Senator, Washington.' Daniel Webster
the same. Ah ! here is a name now, that
reads well—
GEORGE WASIIINGTON.
There is something imposing in the ver)
letters—a tide would mar such a name.

days. No instance has ever been known, where more
than sis days have been required to perform a complete
cure, even in the very worst cases, and on the strongest
constitutions We would earnestly say to all who arc
afflicted with this distressing disease, to get one bo* and
trv thein, and in all cases, two boxes are warranted to
eure, if taken according to the directions, or the money
returned.
These pills not only perform a ytrftrt cure in three
days, hut remove the bile and create a healthy i< tion of
the liver, and consequently fortify the system against a
future attack.
A LSO,
My Vrfftable Aiiti-Dysfep>ia Hitlers.
This Medicine is a certain cure for Dyspepsia in its
very worst forms. Thousands of cases have been com
pletely cured by it within the last year, which have
been entirety despaired of by the regular family physi
cians. We do not recommend it to cure everything—we
recommend it to cure Dyspepsia, and the d.seases origi
nating from it, and that it will cure in almost every case,
ami it is recommended for nothing else. In many iu
staiic--?, even the worst of cases have been completely
cured in two and three mouths, but itdepends somewhat
upon the constitution of the patient. We would say to
all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine
a fair t-rial, and if it fails to do good, your money will be
returned.
A LSO,
My Vegetable Worm Powders.
This is the most wonderful Worm Destroyer ever
known, and at the same time, so pleasant to take, that
almost every child will b ■ fond of it. and many instances
have been known l children crying for more after once
taking it.
This medicine is in the form of a powder, the only
medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a
principle entirely different front any other medicine ever
administered by any other physician. I; is the only
medicine which has no Worm-seed Oil or Turpentine
combined with it, whic.it is believed by all other physi
cians, to be the only two things which will destroy
worms, and these two things combined, together with
cm or oil, are the active principles of ail other worm
medicines, winch every person who has ever tasted or
MII tiled, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous
motilities, ami oil account of which, there is generally
i-omething uddeil to destroy litis nauseous taste, and in
order to do thi?, it must be something stronger than the
nieil rine itself, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy
some of its medicinal properties. 1 iiese powers are
simple and so harmless, that a child may cat a wli.de box
at once, and it will not be hurt, white at the same time,
the principle upon-which it acts being different from any
thing else ever used, it will destroy all kinds of Worms
with a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy
the seat worms, or Asearides, ami lone, round worms,or
Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destruc
tion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one person.
It' your children have any symptoms of worms, try
these powders, and in nine cases out of ten. you will nev
er use any other. These are also warranted.
These medicines arc all separate, and one for each dis
ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re
commended, as many other medicines are, to cure some
fifteen or twenty diseases, and all of different natures,
but they are each to rure but one disease, and that they
will do in ninety -nine cases out of every hundred, and
where they have a fair trial and fail In ail cases, the
money will be returned.

fects In my own family, or in the families of my friends.
Tins I have now done with a high degree of satisfac

CHESTER, Pa., Aug. 22, 1816.
J. (' Aver —Sir: I was taken with a terrible cough,
brought on by a cold, in the beginning of last Pebruary,
and was confined to my bed more than two months
Coughing incessantly night and day, 1 became ghastly
and pale, my eyes were sunken and glassy, and my
breath very short. Indeed, I was rapidly failing, and in
such distress for breath, that but little hope of my recov
ery could be entertained. While in this situation a
friend of mine (the Rev. John Keller, of the Methodist
church) brought me a bottle of your CHERRY PECTORAL,
which 1 tried more to gratify hini than from any expecta
tion of obtaining relief. Its good eff et induced me to
continue its use, and I soon found my health much im
proved. Now, in three months, I aui well and strong,
and can attribute my cure only to your great medicine.

Their power over the above diseases is not exeelled —if
equalled—by cny other preparation in the United Statet ce
the cures attest , tn many eases after skilfulphytiriaiu had
fail'd.
These Bitters are worthy the attention of invalids.
Possessing great virtues in the rectification of diseases of
the l.tver and lesser glands, exercising the most search
ing powers in weakaess and affections of the digestive or
gans, they are withal, safe, certain and pleasant.

JOSIAH C YOUNG, Dauphin, Dauphin county, Pa.,
in a letter to Dr. Jackson, of May 5, ISSI, said :
"For a long time I was afflicted with general debility
and intestinal ireakvess. eostiveness, Sfe , for which 1 used
many different remedies, without change. At last Ino
cidentally stumbled upon Hoo/land's German Bitters,
prepared by you. I took a few bottles according to di
rections, and was completely cured 1 have not been so
healthy for ten pears as I have been since I took your
bitters, which was about one year ago Some of my
neighbors are now using them, and deriving great ben
efit."
ANOTHER LETTER,
From Dr J. C GILES, JVeicton Hamilton, Fa , said:
•• I have used a half dozen of your German Hitters my
self, for Liver Complaint and diseases of a nervous char
acter, resulting from the abuse of mercury. ] was po>
toned and affected with spasm* frcm the use of this lat
ter article, and your German Hitters was the tirst article
from which 1 obtained relief, although i have not jet
finite recovered. All who have used this medicine of
yours speak well of it."
DYSPEPTICS AND SKEPTICS, READ.
In three-fourths of the cases of diseased Liver, Stom
ach and Nerves, the effect of I)r Hoofland's Celebrated
German Bilters. (prepared only by Dr. Jackson, at the
Medicine Store, 120 Arch street.) is as positive as in the
case of A A. Kaufman, Esq. Head t chat he says!
LANCASTER, April 20, 1850.
Respected Sir : I have been for a series of years afflict
ed with Dyspepsia, Inactivity of the Liver, and Nervous
Debility. My menial powers have been so reduced as
to render me quite unfit for the transaction ofanv kind
of business. After consulting many eminent physicians,
and using their prescriptions, and after using the most
popular remedies of the day, supposed to be applicable to
my case, I always failed to have permanent relief. A
friend, with much persuasion, induced me to try a bottle
f your celebrated Bitters. I have used one bottle, and
this day commenced the second. 1 can with cheetfi.l
ness state that it has happily improved me. My appe
tite and spirits have astonishingly improved, and 1 begin
to feel as though I had grown (suddenly) ten years
younger, and really, I am almost prepared to say that i
now consider myself calculated for any business, while,
ten days ago, 1 would have as soon undertaken to /quart
a circle as to have attempted it.
Yours respectfully, A. A. KAUFMAN.
To Dr. C. M. Jackson,
120 Arch street, Philadelphia.
The Editor of "Scott's Weekly Paper," one of Ihe
largest literary and family newspapers published in Phil'
adelphia, says:
" Dr. Hoofland's German Bitters, manufactured b* Dr.
Jackson, are now recommended by some of the most
prominent members of the faculty, as an article of much
efficacy iu cases of female weekness. As such is the
case, we would advise all mothers to obtain a bottle, and
thus save themselves much sickness. Persons of debili
tated constitutions will find these bitters advantageous
to their health, as we know from experience the salutary
effect they have upon weak systems."
That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint and Dvs
pepsia, no one can duubt after using It as directed. It
acts specifically upon the stomach and liver ; it is prefer
able to calomel in all bilious diseases —the effect is imme
diate. They can be administered to FEMALE or ix EAST
with safety and reliable benefit, at any time.
Beware of Counterfeits!
This medicine has attained that high charur.ter w hirh
is necessary for all medicines to attain to induce coun
terfeiters to put forth a spurious article, at the rtskof the
lives of those who are innocently deceived.
Look well to the Marks of the Genuine,
Tliey have the written signatnrc of C. M. JACKSON
upon the wrapper, and the name blown iu the buttle,
without which they are spurious.
