The Christian's Parting Hour.
How sweet the hour of closing day.
When all Is peaceftil and serene,
And when the sun, with cloudless ray.
Sheds mellow lustre o'er the scene!
Such Is the Christ; u"s parting hour-
So peacefully he t nfcs to rest—
When faith, endued from heaven with power.
Sustains aud cheers his languid breast.
Mark but that radiance of his eye,
That smile upon his wasted cheek;
They tell us of his glory nigh.
In language that no tongue can speak,
A beam from heaven is sent to cheer
The pilgrim on his gloomy road;
And angels are attending near
To bear him to their bright abode.
Who would not wish to die like those
Whom God's own Spirit deigns to bless?
To sink into that soft repose.
Then wake to perfect happiness?
Be S/oic to Judgment of others. —It ill
becoms us to be rash aud hasty in our cen
sures of others, and to be forward to believe
people guilty of bad things, while either
the matter of fact on which the censure is
grounded, is doubtful and unproved, or is
capable of a good construction. Charity
commands us to hope the best concerning
all, and forbids censoriousness. Paul had
very good information when he did but
partly believe (1 Cor. xi, 18,) hoping it
was not so. Especially we ought to be
cautious how we censure the devotion of
others, lest we call that hypocricy, enthusi
asm or superstition, which is really the
fruit of honest zeal, and is accepted of GodJ
—Matthew Ilenry.
When Docs Education Commence? —
Education does not commence with the
alphabet. It begins with a mother's look;
with a father's nod of approbation, or his
sign of reproof; with a sister's gentle press
ure of the hand, or a brother's noble act of
. forbearance; with a handful of flowers in
green and daisy meadows; with a bird's
nest admired, but not touched; with pleas
ant walks in shady lanes; and with thoughts
directed, in sweet and kindly tones and
words, to nature, to beauty, to acts of ben
evolence, to deeds of virtue, and to the
source of all good to God himself!—Black
wood.
DYSPEPSIA,
VS shown by the statements of the Board of Health of
New York, caused the death of 76 persons out of 611
deaths in one week, and 131 deaths by consumption in
duced by dyspepsia. As it is a well altesled lan that
dyspepsia is the origin of I lie sufferings of a large jtorlion
of those who die of consumption, it becomes the duly of
every one to use sucii precautions against and remedies
for dyspepsia as science and expeueuce have placed be
fore them, and which have proved to be efficacious. Of
this character is DR. WILLIAMS' ANTI DYSPEPTIC
ELIXIR, in corroboration of which read the following
testimonials:
From Mr. R D'Arni, New York.
Dear Sir—My wife hid been suffering with Dyspepsia
very severely for a long time, and has been attended by
two pnysicians for about six weeks,from which attend
ance she received no relief. I i cently procured your
Elixi' r or her, "•' after taking one buttle she is complete
ly uttred. I cai. oafely say 1 never knew of a medicine
having so quick effect ip so short a lime.
Very respectfully yours, RUDOLPH D'ARNI,
Teacher of Drawing and Music, 267 Broadway, N. Y.
Extract of a letter from Mr. II N. YYinans, New York,
to his friend in Philadelphia.
I)o you recollect that bottle of Williams' Elixir thai
was leaking in your trunk, and yon gave to ine to get rid
of ■ Well, for curiosity, 1 thought I would try if it would
relieve me of Ihe Dyspepsia, which I have had fir some
time, and for which it is rerommended, ami I am happy
to say it has quite cured me, and would recommend it to
any one similarly affected Signed,
H N". WINA.N3. 91 Water st ,N. Y.
Dr. J Williams—After suffering from Dyspepsia for a
considerable time and failing to obtain arty permanent
relief, I .. as induced to try your Elixir T must confess
1 had not much confidence at hist, hut in about two w rks
was most agreeably surprised to find I was rapidly im
proving in health; I am now much fatter than ever before
and I a.n in as good if not belter health than I ever was
in my life. Very truly yours, fcc.,
WILLIAM YARD, 6 City Row.
An Invaluable Retnedy for Dyspepsia.
Read tire testimony of the wrfe of Mr. J..hn Stiles, on
the Frankford Road, near the first 101 l gate.
FRAKKFOBD ROAD, Oct. 25,1849
Dr. James Williams—Having recently understood that
it is tour intention to resume the preparing of your
Anti-Dyspeptic Elixir,and being anxious that others may
be benefitted by its use ag I have been. I herewith send
you for publication, if you think (.roper, a statement of
the effectual cure produced on me by it. Fur a number
of years I have, been suffering lo such an extent that I
became so much debilitated, arid the digestive powers so
much dest-oyed, that it was wilh difficulty I could take
and retain sufficient nourishment to eupport life. Neith
er myself nor my friends were aware that iny suffering
proceeded from indigestion; in the year 1839 my attention
was directed by my husband to your advertisement, at
that lime published in some of the city papers,explaining
the causes and symptoms of dyspepsia, and confidently
offering a remedy. I immediately procured and used
some of your medicine with the most signal suc
cess; from a stale of debility, languor, and nervousness
and complete loss of the power of digestion, so great that
1 could take at first only five drops of the Elixir at a dose,
I was in a few days much relieved, and by continuing it
a short time i have been restored to health, strengtn,
and vigor, which J still retain. I take great pleasure, sir,
in making known the . rticacy of your Anti Dyspeptic
Elixir, and sincerely hope it may be the means of induc
ing others lo go and be benefitted like imeelf.
Very respectfully, 4c., HANNAH STILES

THE MODEL CHURN.
SPJIS'S P.4TEXT
Atmospheric Barrel Churn
WILL make more Butler, of a belter quality, from a
'* given quantity of Cream, than any other in use. It
is constructed in >uch a manner th it the whole reel or
dasher, un be removed (w iiole) from the inside of the
Churn by simply unscrewing the handle end of the dash
er to the square of the hole. The peculiar construction
of the dasher agitates the cream in the centre as well as
ihe sides, giving ii a rotary motion,and preventing the
cream from revolving with the dasher after it becomes
tiiick. They also gather the bntter quicker and better.
They have Tubes in Ihe lid for the purpose of letting the
cas escape as fast as it rises, and admitting the fresh air
10 pass through ihe churn while in operation. After
churning, the dashers cau be removed for a perfect clean
ing. Ihe Churn is then clear of all impediments in the
way of removing the butter. Tor sate by
