To Horse Owners,
THE GREAT ENGLISH REMEDY.
'VIE only original and genuine artiele for the
cure of Heaves, other complaints of the respi
ratory apparatus and derangement of the digestive
functions in the horse is
% KIRKBRIDE'S TATTERSALL'S HEAVE
POWDERS
It is warranted to be perfectly safe in all cases,
will not inconvenience the animal or injure him
even if he has no disease; it is from foils to eight
times cheaper than most of the imitations which
are being circulated throughout the country, being
put up in . larger packages, sufficient to cure any
ordinary case of Heaves, and to administer in a
dozen cases of cold, catarrh, &c.
At this season, while the horse is shedding his
coat his vital- energy- is much - reduced, and he is
extremely liable to colds, &c., many cases of incip
ient Heaves are contracted now, but are suppressed
by pasture or warm weather, till they break out
in full force in the fall. Thousands of horses can
be saved from future unsoundness, if when the
first - symptons of cold or wheezing is observed, a
few doses of the Tattersall's Heave Powders should
be administered. They are warranted to wholly
eradicate recent heaves at this season.
Great Spring Purifie - r:—The Heave Powders
given in small doses, will be found most useful at
this. season. They stimulate the skin to cast off
the Superfluous hair and produce new; they loosen
the hide, give a glossy appearance to the coat, pro
tect against disease; they also form their fine
alterative and restorative powers, purify the blood
and renovate the . whole system, which ,
horses re
',sire at this season as much as any of the human
race r who find.a preparation of Sarsaparilla USCrol
to correct a vitiated state of the fluids, incident to
the change of weather, which in the spring — affect
all animal as well as vegetable life.
INCREASING EVIDENCE.--Scarcely a day
pasties but we receive marks of approbation from
our agents, and others who have used or sold the
emedy.
The following front our agent at Burlington, Vt.,
was received this morning:
"Mr. Flannagan of Middlebury, says he par
:chased a package of you last tall, and gave to a
',valuable young horse that had the heaves, and it
cured him entirely; he is now perfectly sound. He
has just bought a few more packages fur other
horses." A. C. SPEAR, Burlington, Vt.
This was received yesterday morning
"Messrs. A. H. Gough $r Co.—l have by chance
_procured one package of your Tattersalrs Heave
Powders, and have tried them on a horse of my
own. I think it has entirely cured my horse to all
appearances. Almost every man here thinks heaves
cannot be cured, and to satisfy the people that they
can, I will purchase six packages for $6, which is
enclosed. Please:send, &c., to
EDWARD JONES, ,
Clyde Glass Works, Clyde, N. Y.
In addition to the above and twenty other certifi
cates which we have published, more than a hun
dred smilar ones can be adduced, but is impossible
to publish them all. The successful and immense
use of this popular Horse Remedy has rendered
advertising unnecessary to establish it as the most
useful and saleable horse medicine extant.
,CAUTION.—As is to beezpected of every valua
ble and popular remedy, numeronsparasitical imi
tations have sprung up, all of which expect to find
support and sale from the popularity of this medi
cine. This has 'been the case more particularly in
the middle and western parts of this State, but per
sons are cautioned against all "HEAVE CURES,
"HEAVE CODIPOUNDS," &C., and to purchase no
remedy but

to any ever before offered to the public, embracing
ail THEIR very latest improvements, among which
are the Double Screen and the better application
of the wind, so as to produce the most desirable
effect in cleaning grain of all kinds. Experience
of many years, great practical knowledge, and
strict personal application, enables us to say our

and all work undergoes ourcareful personal inspec
tion before leaving our shop.
In addition to our important improvements, our
fans are celebrated for their ease in working, and
the great expedition with which they clean all kinds
of grain, besides their superior finish warrant us in
saying they surpass all other mills manufactured,
and we confidently warrant them to give entire sat
istaction upon trial.
"CORN PLOUGH."
We also call the especial attention of farmers,
to KROVSER'S Patent Pennsylvania Buggy CORN
PLOUGH, which are admitted to surpass all now in
use. Farmers wishing a first rate article of this
kind, will do well to call and examine this, before
purchasing elsewhere.

of an additional tub, called a dr t ling tub, which
is placed partly above yhc still, 1r which tub the
doubler is inclosed, the beer which is pumped lute

county and in various other places, I hereby give
notice, that unless those persons who have made
use of my invention, or have it now in use, without
being authorized by me, come forward and make
full reparation for having infringed my patent right,

of Nashville, Tennessee
G. B. MARKLEY & SON,
WOULD respectfully announce to the citizens
of Lancaster and the public in general, that
they have purchased the agency from Dr. S. M.
SHANNON, of Nashville, Tennessee, as the above
certificate will show under his hand and seal.
His unparalelled success in the treatment of a
large majority of those diseases which have ever
been regarded as incurable by the modern and
more fashionable practice, hae induced him to send
forth this card to the afflicted portion of mankind.
,He has within the past twelve months imparted in
structions to upwards of 2000 citizens of Tennessee, •
Uirginia, North and South Carolina, Kentucky, and
Indiana, among them physicians of high standing,
and they all bear testimony of their entire satisfac
tion. He has also succeeded in giving permanent
relief to nearly 3000 individuals, ample proof of
which lie can adduce. It is not pretended that the
concentration of the results of medical research
emanates from one author, for be lie ever so versed
in medical acience, he would come far, far short of
so herculean a task.
Dr. S. has been engaged since 1836, in selecting
and purchasing all the popular and secret remedies
which could be obtained in England, Ireland, Ger
many and the United States, from those who were
eminently successful in curing some one of the
following diseases, viz: rheumatism, dyspepsia,
sick and nervous headache, pains or weakness in
the back and joints, paralysis, neuralgia, spinal
affections, epilepsy, toothache, contractions of the
muscle, weak or inflamed eyes, piles, asthma, can
cer, tester, frost bite, scrofula, ulcers, mercurial
diseases of long standing, female diseases, general
debility, &c.
For full instructions, for the cure of all diseases
originating in, or causing the derangement of the
nervous system, so that those who receive instruc
tions can act with equal efficiency as themselves,
their charge is only TEN DOLLARS.
afflicted with any of the above named
dieeaec would do well to call on the above named
Agents, and if not erreci...ll,
ration will be required for their services. Their
motto is "NO CURE, NO PAY."

;Why dost thou feel rejected and forsaken,
And for my image sorrowfully pine?
My love has ever stood to thee unshaken,.
I My heart has heat in unison with thine.
No earthly form have I adored above thee,
No other being shared th' unspoken bliss,
And could'st thou feel how fervently I love thee
Thy spirit must have fathomed me 'ere this.
My love was silent, yet it was not sleeping,
Nor was it cold to thy resplendent eye,
But secret grief and languid tears were steeping
My soul in bitterness, as time passed by.
OR have I dreamed of thee in summer hours,
When o'er the hills I chased the wandering bee
And patiently I plucked the opening flowers,
And wrought them in a garland fair for thee.
From their uplifted couches have I torn them,
While yet the sun was towering in the west,
And in my flowing ringlets have I worn them,
Wrought into figures that will please thee best.
Long has my soul adored thee as a brother,
Long has my bosom harmonized with thine,
And yet I thought, perhaps, Thou loved another,
And shrunk from soiling what I deemed divine.
Oft in the shades of even I have met thee,
But thou didst pass me with a shadowy look,
'Twee this that made me struggle to forget thee,
It was for this, thy presence I forsook.
When in a distant land, I have admired '
Thy image in my vision floating past,
And oft, when all to slumber had retired,
I fancied, that thy image came at last:
But if my . features e'er again should meet thee,
'Twill recognize thee as a joyful prize,
And in the fullness of my soul, repeat thee,
That love which I had thought thou would'st
despise.
Still if we meet, thy heart shall share my gladness,
Here on this earth may we in virtue dwell,
It not, we'll mutely bear the crushing sadness,
And try to meet in heaventhen fare thee well.
SOAR HIGH! SOAR HIGH!!
Soar high! soar high ! nor fear to fly—
. Think not about the falling—
Stay not to shrink upon the brink
Of high or holy calling;
riot. halos right, with all thy might
Go on—the clouds of sorrow,
That here to-day obscure thy way,
May all be gone to-morrow.
The world may sneer, and laugh and jeer,
Yet stay not for repining;
Alike for all, the great and- small,
Creation's light is shining.
Take heart of oak, there is no stroke
Man strikes, but it may aid him ;
For if the deed from good proceed,
Say what on earth shall shade him;
As every joy, we unemploy
Is an ungracious measure;
So every gift we cast adrift
Is a most wasted treasure.
And it may be, perchance, if we
Should once alike refuse them,
We may in vain strive to regain
The slightest power to use them.
Soar high ! soar high ! nor fear to fly—
Think not about the falling—
There is a power in every hour
To help us in our calling;
If only more we would adore,
And seek its mighty aiding ;
Nor rack our brains, and take such pains
To search for things so fading.
,fflisiellaneous.
Nobility of Mechanics
Toil on, sun burnt mechanic! God bas placed
thee in thy lot perchance to guide the flying car
that whirls us on from scene to scene, from friend
to friend ; bind down the warring wave of ocean.
tempest tossed, orcha in the red artillery of heaven.
Toil on! Without thy power, earth, though thy
sands were one pactolus of gold, would be a waste
of tinselled tears and glittering grief: and want,
and wo, and splendid misery, would gleam out
from all her treasured mines. Rich soils would
perish in their richness, and the fruits of the sea
sons changing, die ungathered from the harvest.
Toil on! Jehovah was a workman too.
"In the beginning God created heaven and earth,"
and from the confused choas sprang this perfect
world--the perfect workmanship of the eternal,
uncredted Power. Up rose the mighty firmament
and back the sullen surges swept, submissive, tamed,
each to their several bounds.
And then he set great lights--the glorious sun
to bless the day; the'timid moon to wear at night
the milder lustre of the radiant orb.
He painted heaven with mingled blue and white
—and in the vaulted arch a modest star peeped out,
seeming by the majesty of sun and moon, like a
stray lily breathing, in it, lore of meek and blush
ing loveliness, on the gay tints of opening bud and
rich voluptuous blossom.
Wondering, there dawned another and a third,
till, clustering, clinging, to the spacious canopy,
they read, in the calm waters of the sea, the story of
that radiant loveliness. From thence assured they
fear not sun or moon but faithfully distill their pen
sive light, old ocean tossed her cresent spray, and from
their hidden depths, creatures of life came up and
Hew above the earth—winged fowls and !lying fish;
and the great whale, dark emperor of the sea.
And God created man! Six days he labored,
and the seventh he reposed; while from the sea,
the earth, the air, and all that is, went up a chorus
of exstatic praise to God .the first, the eternal
architect.
Tod on; sun burnt mechanic heard ye of him
whom babbling Jews despise? The mange: born
of Nazareth? Exalted to be prince over death and
hell? Read ye not in the book of the untaught
apprentice, who had laid his hand upon Tiberius
rugged main, and it was stilled?
- .
Toil on ! Drink from the dews that heaven
distills, fragrant flowers, the bbrsting buds, the bless
ed air, is untold wealth to the hard browed and
bronzed mechanic. Rich coffers being a share of
corrosion. God's wealth is yours, a wealth to
which decaying gold is vanity and dross.—Miss
Wentworth.
There is no country in the world in which the
condition and wants of the softer sex are so much
respected and attended to as in our own. Even in
boasting England they are, in a great measure,
denied the position in society which is conceded to
them here. Many women, in their ridiculous and
insane desire to domineer over, rule and govern and
hen-peck their duteous husbands, lorget that were
they in almost any other country on the globe,
their case would be very different.
What would be their condition in any or all of
the eastern continents? In most of the divisions
comprising this portion of our world, they are
mere living machines—hewers of wood and draw
ers of water. Sold as slaves in most partsonly
intended to minister to the lascivious gratifications
and lasts of a Turkish Sultan—shut up in a harem
to be fondled for a while, and then, when satiety
has palled his appetite, to be discarded, bowstringed
and cast into the sea.
We do not say this to lower the situation of the
sex with us, but rather in order to let them see
more clearly the elevated position they occupy.
Woman is certainly "Heaven's last, best gift to
man," and Campbell tells us that
The world was sad, the garden was a wild
And man, the hermit, sighed till woman smiled."
When men elevate woman in the social circle,
they raise themselves. A perfect woman, if such
a being could exist, would approach nearer to the
character of an angel than any thing we can con
ceive. It would not, however, perhaps, be very
difficult to show that woman has been almost
equally, the blearing and. the curse of the human
race. War and peace, tyranny and liberty, have
alike been the fruits of her charms or her intrigues
—her virtues or her vices.

accents of despair, "Oh, ;11r. Beall, save me ! lam
a husband and the father of six helpless children !”
Never was a prayer more quickly heard, or more
heroically answered.
The Lieutenant, though riding for his own
immediately stopped his mare, dismounted, awl,
giving her to the man, said, You shall be saved.
Ride back to the camp, and send Mein out to give
my body decent burial f' And so they parted, the
footman to escape, and the of f icer, as he supposed,
to be slain; for the hill was utterly bare, Without
a single hiding place, and he thought of nothing
but selling his lite as dearly as possible.
For this purpose he drew a revolver, and, sitting
down on the ground, waited for the savages, who
in a moment came rushing over the brow of a hill,
and them to the unspeakable arnazimen, of Lieut.
Beall, dallied past him down the. descent like mad
men, not a soul of them paying the least regard to
him, not a sonl, in fact, seeing him. They saw, in
nothing but the horse and horseman they
had been pursuing for three miles; they I: new
nothing of a footman; and perhaps the sitting tigure
of the lieutenant appeared, to eyes only bent on tale
attractive object,,as a stone or huge cactus, such as
abound on those Sterile hills.
At all events, Lieutenant Beall, by what seemed
to himself almost a direct Providential interposition
in his behalf, remained wholly undiscovered; and
in a moment more the Apaches were out of sight,
still pursuing the horse and his rider towards the
camp. The latter barely succeeded in e , caping
with his life, the Indians having overhauled hint
'so closely just as he reached the camp, as to be
able to inflict one or two slight wounds upon him
with, bullets, or perhaps with arrows. As for ti
Lieutenant, he was not slow to take advantage
his good fortune • and selecting a round alt
course, he succeeded in reaching the camp just
about the time the, poor fellow - whom he h a d saved,
and the other members of the party, were ❑bout
sallying out to obey Ins last request, and give his
body decent burial.
Upon such an act as this it were superfluous to
comment. It is an act, however, which deserves
to live in men's recollections like the story of a
great battle and viclory.—Philu. ✓bocci'(.
Elegant Extract
There is an even tide in human life; a season
whet, the eye becomes dim and the strength decays,
and when the winter of age begins to shed upon
the human head its prophetic snows. It is the sea
son of life to which the autumn is most analogous:
and which it becomes, and much it would profit
you, my elder brethren, to mark the instructio n
which the season brings. The spring and summer
of your days are gone, and with them not only joys
they knew, but many of the friendswho gave them.
You have entered upon the autumn of your 'being—
and whatever may have been the profusion of your
spring—or the warm temperament of your smniner,
there is a season of stillness or solitude which the
beneficence of heaven affords you, in which you
may meditate upon the past and future, and .pre
pare yourself lot. the mighty change which you
may soon undergo.
It is now that you may understand the ma,r,rtili
cent language of heaven—it mingles its voice with
that of Revelation—it summons you to these hours
when the leaves fall and the winter is• gathering,
to that evening study which the mercy of Ilea,en
has provided in the book of salvation. And is bile
the shadow valley opens, which leads s the abode
of death, it speaks of that love which ran.conitort
and save, and which can conduct to these green
pastures and those still waters where there is an
eternal spring for the children of God.
Belief in a Supreme Being
We have often wondered if there was an .'theist
in the world—a man who believes in no such om
nipotent, all-wise and all-governing power, as Inc
call God. We do not believe that such a man ex
ists. He certainly does riot among savages and
heathen. The rude races believe as devotedly in
God, as in their own lives. They do not I,arn to
believe thus, it is instinctive—God is born in every
human soul, and can the soul be unconscious of its
own life? Among the civilized and enlightened,
the belief of God is deeper and stronger. In the
pride of vain philoshphy, fools and sometimes
sensible men will pretend to disbelieve in God, hilt
they only ireceiye themselves. In the darkness of
the night, and on the confines of the grave, they
confess their error—they shudder at the blank they
would if possible have created.
- .
Men who hold the idea of a God light is the
merry days of life, will cling and call upon God in
hourS of agony. The necessity of such a pillar
against which to repose, destroys the possibility of
actual Atheism. What a 100 l he must be who
would reject God to prove there is nothing greater
than man. In a few days this - boaster's greatness
will be dust and oblivion, but the God whom he
derided—though clinging to Hirg with desperation
to the last—will survive as glorioas, majestic and
Inificent, as though the would-be Atheist had never
existed. What a blessed thing that the soul has a
God to which it can ever turn with confidence and
joy.

tions in his youth,and writes feelingly of his mother,
and his regret at not obeying her pious teachings.
He made a visit - to New Orleans after he had been in
Louisville a few months, and there falling into bad
company
,became a :drunkard and a gambler.—
Linder the assumed name of William Sheers he re
turned to Louisville—obtained employMent, deter
mined to reform, hut was tempted by evil persons,
and again fell into the evil practices of gambling
and drinking, leading also in other respects a dis
solute life. He continued these practices until as
he expresses it, he "became a nuisance to himself."
Ire determined to come to this city, seek a place in
the hospital, if possible to recover his health, and
then lead a different life. Ile arrived on Sunday.
Alter his arrival, he says, calmly and deliberately,
in a sound state of mind, he made up his mind to
commit suicide, and accordingly threw himself in
the canal. The letter from which we get the above
particulars was dated May 30, 18.19. h i a post

Earth the Natural Friend of Man.
The great Roman naturalist, Pliny, in one of the
most beautiful passages of his elaborate history of
nature, observes is the earth that, like a kind
mother, receives us at our birth, and sustains us
when born: It is this alone, of ail the elements
around, Mat is neverfound an enemy of man. The
body of waters deluge him with rains, oppress him
with hail, and drown with inundations; the air rushes
on in storms, prepares the tempest or lights up the
vol:ano; but the earth, gentle and indulgent, ever
bubserves to the wants of man, spreads his walks
with flowers, and his table with plenty; returns with
interest every good committed to tier care; and
though she produces the poison, she still supplies
the antidote, though constantly teased to furnish
the luxuries of man rather than his necessities;
yet, even to the last, she continues her kind indul
gence, :nal when life is over,'she piously hides his
remains in her bosom.
Prayer is nut a smooth expression of a well con
trived form of words, nor the product of a ready
memory, nor rieh invention exerting itself in the
performance., These may draw a neat picture of
it, but still the lite is wanting. ,The motion. of the
heart God-wards, holy and divine perfection, makes
prayer real and lively, arid acceptable to the living
God, to whom it is presented ; the pouring out of
the heart to him that made it, and understands
what it speaks, and how it is moved and affected
in calling on Him. It is not the gilded paper and
the good writing of a petition that prevails with a
king. but the moving sense of it; and, to the king
that discerns the heart, heart serge is the sense of
all, and that which he'tilinie regards; he listens to
hear what that speaks,'"and takes all as nothing
when that is : silent. All other ekcellence in prayer
is but the subject and fashion of it.—./rclibishop
Leighton.
The Ind of Prudence.
The great end of prudence is to give cheerfulness
to those hours which splendor cannot gild, and
acclamation cannot exhilarate. Those soft inter
vals of unbended amusement, in which a man
shrinks to his natural dimensions, and throwroaside
the ornaments of disguises which he feels, hr priL
vacy, to be useless encumbrances, and to lose all
effect when they become familiar. To he happy
at home, is the ultimate result of all ambition, the
end to which every enterprise and labor tends, and
of which every desire prompts the prosecution.—
It is. indeed, at home that every man' must be t
known by those who would make a just estimate
of his virtue; or felicity. for smiles and embroidery.
are alike occasional, and the mind is often dressedi
for show in painted honor, and fictitious benefo-;
lence.—Scimt?lic ✓merican.
The longer thy affliction hath been, the, sweeter
will heaven be to thee at last. The longer the
storm the sweeter the calm; the longer the winter
nights, the sweeter the summer days. Long afflic
tions will much set off the glory of heaven. The
harbor is more sweet and desirable to theirttbat
have been long tossed upon the seas; so will hea
ven be to those who have long been in a sea of
troubles. The new wine of ChrThts kingdom is
most sweet to those that have been gong drinking
of gall and vinegar—Rev. Thomas Brooks.
