TOWNSEND is now about7o years of age, and has long been known as the author and discoverer of the Genuine Original Townsend Sarsaparilla. Being poor, he was compelled, to limit its manufacture, by which means it has been kept out of market,"and the sales circumscribed to those only who liad proved its worth, and known its value. It had reachedtthe ears of many, never thelesz, as those persons who had been healed o sore diseases, and saved from death, proclaimed its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER. Knowing, many years ago;, that he had, by his skill, science and experience, devised an article which would be of incalculable advantage to man kind when the means would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues would be known and appreciated. This time has come, the means. are supplied ; this Grand and Unequalled Preparation is manufactured on the lar gest scale, and is, called for throughout the length and breadth of the land, especially as it is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration. Unlike young S. P. Townsend's, it improves with age, and never changes, but for the better; because it is prepared on scientific principles by a scientific man. The highest knowledge of Chemistry, and the latest discoveries of the art, have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture of the old Dr's Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla Root, is well known to medical men contains many medical properties and some properties which are inert or useless, and others which it retained in preparing it - for use, produce fermentation and acid, which is injurious to the system. Some of the properties of Sarsaparilla are so volatile, that they entirely evap orate and are lost in the.preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific progress, known only to those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these volatile principles, which fly off in vapor, or as, an exhalation,, under heat, are the very essential medical properties of the root, which give to it all its value. Any person can boil or stew the root till they get a dark colored liquid, which is more from the col oring matter in the root than from anything else; they can then strain this insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten with sour molasses, and then cafFit ‘, Sar saparilla Extract or Syrup.", But such is not the article known as the GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S SARSAPARILLA. This is so prepared, that all the inert properties of the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every thing capable of becoming acid or of fermentation, is extracted '6 rejected; then every particle oi medical virtue is secured in a pure and concentra ted form; and thus it is rendered incapable of los ing any of its valuable and healing properties. Pre pared in this' way, it is made the most powerful agent in the CURE OF INNUMERABLE DISEASES Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every side in its favor by Men, .women, and children. We find it doing wmiders in the cure of Consumption, Dyspepsia, and Liver Complaint, and in Rheumatism, Scrolbla, Piles, Costiveness, all Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, and all affections arising from IMPLTRITY OF THE BLOOD It possesses a marvelous efficacy in all complaints arising from Indigestion; from Acidity of the Stom ach, from unequal circulation, determination of blood to the head, palpitation of the heart, cold feet and hands, cold chills and hot flashes over the body. It has not its equal in Colds and Coughs ; and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspi ration, relaxing strictures of the lungs, throat, and every other part. But in nothing is its excellence more manifestly seen and acknowledged than in all kinds and stages of FEMALE COMPLAINTS It works wonders in cases of Flour Albus or Whites, Falling of the Womb, Obstructed, Suppres sed, or Painful Menses, Irregularity of the mens trual periods, and the like, and it is effectual in curing all the forms of Kidney Disease. By removing obstructionse and regulating the general system, it gives tone and strength to the whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervous Diseases and Debility, and tbds prevents or relieves a great variety of other mala'aies, as Spihal Irrita tion, Neuralgia, St. Vitus , Dance, Swooning, Ep ileptic Fits, Convillsions, &c. It cleanses the blood, excites the liver to healthy action, tones the stomach, and gives good diges tion, relieves the bowels of torpor and constipation, allays inflammation, purifies the skin, equalizes the circulation of the blood., producing gentle warmth equally over all parts of the body, and the insensi ble perspiration ; relaxed all strictures and tight ness, removes all obstructions, and invigorates the entire nervous system. Is not this then the medi cine you pre-eminently need ? But can any of these things be said of S. P. Town. send's inferior article ? This young man's liquid is not to be COMPARED WITH THE OLD DR'S, because of one Grand Fact, that the one is incapa ble of Deterioration, and NEVER 'SPOILS, while the other does; souring, fermenting, and blowing the bottles containing it into fragments; the sour, acid liquid exploding, and damaging other goods ! Must not this horrible compound be pois onous to the system 7 What! put acid into a sys tem already diseased with acid ? What causes Dyspepsia but acid 7 Do we not all know tha n 'when food sours in our stomachs, what mischief is produces 7 flatulence, heart-burn, palpitation of the heart, liver complaint, diarrhea, dysentary, colic, and corruption of the blood 7 What is Scrofula but an acid humor in the body ? What produces all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the Skin, Scald Head, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, White Swellings, Fever Sores, and all ulcerations internal and external 7 It is nothing under heaven but an acid substance, which sours, and thus spoils allthe fluids of the body, more or less. What causes Rheumatism but a sour or acid fluid, which insinu ates itself between the joints and elsewhere, irrita ting and inflaming the delicate tissues upon which it acts ? So of nervous diseases, of impurity of the blood, of deranged circulations, and nearly all the ailments which affect human nature. Now is it not horrible to make and sell, and infi nitely worse to use this Souring, Fermenting, Acid Compound of S. P. Townsend, and yet he would fain have it understood that Old DI. Jacob Townsend's Genuine Original Sarsapa rills, is an imitation of his inferior preparation. Heaven forbid that we should deal in an article which • would bear the least resemblance to S. P. Townsend's article; and which should bring down upon the old Dr. such a mountain load of complain and criminations from Agents who have sold, anc purchasers.who have used S. P. Townsend's Fer menting Compound. - We wish it understood because it is the absdlute truth, that S. P. Townsend's article and old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla are heaven-wide apart, and infinitely, dissimilar; that they are unlike in every particular having not one single thing in common. As S. P. Townsend is no doctor, and never was, is no chemist, no pharmaceutist—knows no more of medicine or disease than any other common, unscientific, unprofessional man, what guarantee can the public have that they are receiving a genu ine scientific medicine, 'containing all the virtues of the articles used id preparing it, and, which are incapable of changes which might render them the AGENTS of Disease instead of health. But what else should be expected from one who knows .nothing comparatively, of medicine or dis ease ! It requires a person of some experience to cook and serve up even a common decent meal. How much more important is it that the persons who manufacture medicines designed for Weak Stomachs and Enfeebled Systems should know weit•the medical properties of plants, the best manner of securing and concentrating their healing virtues, also an extensive system, and how to adapt remedies to these diseases! It is horrible to think and to know how cruelly the afflicted are imposed upon by presumptuous men for the sake of money !

Henry, could you see, what I have borne And bear for you, you would not chide me so ; I never make a show of love to you ; If you were quick at reading woman's heart, You might have guessed it—others have ere this ; I'm sure my eyes must brighten when you come, I love to see you so, and when I sing, And they are by—we are not oft alone— My voice is trembling, and when you depart, I think I must look sad, I always feel so. Alas! I think of you the the live-long day, Plying my needle by the little stand, And wish that we had never, never met, Or I was dead, or you were married off,— But that would kill me. I lay down my work, And take the lute you gave me, but the strings Seem harsh and tuneless, or I cannot play; I sing the favorite airs, the melodies, The sweet old tunes we loved, and weep aloud. I think, and think, my head goes turning round, And throbs with pain, and I am sick and dizzy, And my heart beats so, that I fear die! I sought forgetfulness, and tried to read A chapter in the Holy-Book to day : I could not see a line, I only read The solemn sonnets that you sent to me. I cannot pray as I was used to do, For you come in between me and the Lord ! And, kneeling down to frame a supplication, My wits are wandering, and sob your name! And nights, when I am lying on my bed, {l. hope such thoughts are not unmaidenly!) I think of you, and fall asleep aq dream lam your wedded wife, your happy wife ! I wonder if you ever think of me. Men never love like women ; they are colder, More calculating, they hold back their hearts With iron hands, and will not let them go. We give ours frankly—we are silly for it; A. great gift, like the deep love of a woman, Loses its value when 'tis freely given. She should be chary of it, keeping it Locked in her soul away from prying eyes; She should be firm and coy, and stand in awe, Guarding her honor; and when she is won, She sould bestow her heart in burning tears! There's a Good Time Coming, Girls, There's .a good time coming, girls, A good time coming ! Old maids may not see the day, But still shall give a loud hurrah ! - . For the good time cooling. Submission now shall aid our cause, And make all the stronger! We'll wear the breeches by and by, Wait a little longer. There's a good time corning girls, A good time coming! Our tongues shall supersede the pen, And women rule instead .of men, In the good tithe coming—. Voice, not force, shall rule mankind, And be acknowledged stronger ; The proper weapon we have got, Wait a little longer. There's a good time coming, girls, A good time coming! A bachelor to all eyes shall be A monster of iniquity, In the good time coming. The Lords of Creation then, Shall not be thought the stronger, Nor make us promise to obey; Wait a—little longer. There's a good time coming, girls, A good time coming! We shall do whateer we please, For fin we oil the men will tease, In the good time coming. They all shall smile, nor dare to frown, Bat own we are the stronger, The reformation has begun ; Wait a little longer. Oligrellancoup. Bishop George and the Young Preacher An aged traveller, worn and weary, was gently arging on his tired beast, just as the sun was drop ping behind the range of hills that bounds the hori zon of that rich and picturesque country in the vicinity of Springfield, Ohio. It was a sultry Aug ust evening, and he had journeyed a distance of 35 miles since morning—his prase throbbing under :he influence of a burning sun. At Fairfield he had been hospitably entertained by one who had recog• nized the veteran soldier of the cross, and who had ministered to him for his Master's sake, of the ben efits he himself had received from the hand which feedeth the young lions when they lack ; and he had travelled on, refreshed in spirit. But many a weary mile had he journeyed over since then, and now, as the evening shades darkened around, he felt the burden of age and toil heavy upon him, and he desired the pleasant retreat he had pictured to himself when that day's pilgrimage should be accomplished. It was not long before the old man checked his tired animal at the door of the anxiously looked for haven of rest. A middle aged woman was at hand, to whom he mildly applied for accommoda tion for himself and horse. "I don't know," said she coldly, after scrutiniz. ing for some time the appearance of the traveller, which was not the most promising, "that we can take you in, old man. You seem tired, however, and i'll see if the minister of the circuit.,"who is here to-night, will let you sleep with , him." The young circuit preacher sooir made his ap pearance, and consequentially ,swaggering up to the old man, examined himfdi some moments in quisitively ; then asked aXw impertinent questions —and finally, after adjuSting his hair half a dozen times, feeling his smoothly shaven chin as often, consented that* stranger should share his bed for the nigh and turned upon his heel, and entered the house: The traveller, aged and weary as he was, dis mounted and led his faithful animal to the stable, and - With his own hands he rubbed him down, and gave him food, and then entered the hopitable mansion where he had expected so much kindness. A methodist-family resided in the house, and as the circuit preacher was to be there that day, great preparations were made to entertain him, and a .number of the methodist young ladies of the neigh borhood had been invited, so that quite a party met the eye of the stranger as he entered, not one co whom took the slightest notice of him, ar.d'he wea rily sought a vacant chair in the corner, out of direct observation, where he could note all that was going on—arid his anxious eye showed that he a•as no careless observer of what was transpiring around him. The young minister played his part with all the frivolity of a. city beaux, and nothing like religion escaped his lips. Now he was chatting and bandy ing senseless compliments to this young lady, and now engaged in trifling repartee with another, who was anxious to seem interesting in his eyes. The stranger , after' an hour, during which no re freshments had been prepared for him, asked to be shown to his room ; to which he retired unnoticed, grieved and shocked at the conduct of the family and the minister. Taking from his saddle bags a well worn bible, he seated himself in a chair, and was soon buried in thought holy and elevating, and had food to eat which those who passed him by in pity and scorn dreamed not of. Hour atter hour passed away, and no one came to invite the old worn down traveller to partake of the luxurious supper which was served below. Towards eleven o'clock the minister came up stairs, and without pause or prayer, hastily threw off his clothes, and got into the very middle of the small bed, which .was to be the resting place of the old man as well as himself. After a while, the aged stranger rose up, and after partially disrobing himself, knelt down and remained for many min utes in fervent prayer. The earnest outpouring of his soul arrested the attention of the young preacher, who began to feel some few reproofs of conscience for his own neglect of this duty. The old mannow arose from his kness, and after slowly undressing himself gat into bed, or rather upon the edge of the bed, for the young preacher had taken possessi6n of the centre, and would not voluntarily move an inch. In this uncomfortable position the stranger lay for some time in silence. At length the young er of the two made a remark to which the elder replied in a style and manner that arrested his at tention. On this he moved over an inch or two and made more room. "How far have you come to day, old gentle man?" "Thirty.five "From where'?" "From Springfield." "Ah, indeed! You must be very tired after so long a journey for one of your age:' • "Yes, this poor old body is much worn down by long and constant travel, and I feel that the journey today has exhausted me much." The young minister moved over a little. " You don't belong to Springfield, then?" "\o. I have no abiding place." "How?" "I have no continuing city. My home is beyond this vale of tears." Another move of the minister. • "How tar have you travelled on your present journey?" "From Philadelphia.- "From Philadelphia?" (in evident surprise.) The Methodist General Conference was in sesship there a short time since—had it broken up when you lett" The old man replied in the affirmotive. "Ah, indeed! (moving still further over towards the front side of the bed and allowing the stranger better accommodations.) "Had Bishop George left when you came outr "Yes, he started the same time I did!—we leltin company!" Here the circuit preacher relinquished a full half of the bed, and politely requested the stranger to occupy a larger space. "How did the Bishop look? He is getting quite old and feeble, is he not?" "He carries his age tolerably well, but his labor is a hard one, and he begins to show signs of fail ing strength." "He is expected this way in a week or two. How glad be to shake hands with the good old veteran of the Cross!—But you say you left in company with the good old man. How far did you come together!" "We travelled alone for a small distance." "You travelled alone with the Bishop?" "Yes, we have been intimate for years!" "You, intimate with Bishop George?" "Yes, why not?" "Bless me! why did I not know that? But may I be so bold as to inquire your name?" After a moment's hesitation the stranger re plied, "Geoige." "Not Bishop George?" "They call me Bishop George;' meekly replied the old man. "Why, why, bless me, Bishop George," exclaim ed the now abashed preacher. springing from the bed. "You have had no supper! I will instantly call up the family. Why did you not tell us who you were?'' "Stop, stop, my friend," said the Bishop, gravely," "I want no sipper here. and should not eat any if it were got for me. If an old man, toil-worn and weary. fainting with travelling through all the long summer day, was not considered worthy of a meal by this family who profess to have set up the altar of God in their house, Bishop George surely is not. fie is at best but a man, and has no claims beyond those of common humanity." A night of severer mortification the young prea cher never experienced. The Bishop kindly ad monished him, and warned him of the great neces- sity there was of his adorning the doctrines of Christ, by following him sincerely and humbly.— Gently, but earnestly he endeavored to win him back from his wanderings of heart, and directed him to trust more in God and less in his own strength. Six months from this time the Ohio annual Con- ference met at Cincinnati, and the young minister was to present himself for ordination as a deacon; and Bishop George was to be the presiding Bishop. On the first day of the assembling of conference, our young minister's heart sunk within him as he saw the venerable Bishop take his seat. So great was his grief and agitation that he was soon obliged to leave the room. In the evening, as the Bishop was seated alone in his chamber, the Rev. Mr. was announced, and he requested him to be ,hown up. He grasped the young man by the hand with a cordiality which he did not expect, for he had made careful inquiries and found that since they had met, a great change had been wrought in him. He was now as humble and pious as he was before selfsufficient and worldly minded. As a father would have received a disobedient but repen• taut child, so did this good man receive his erring but contrite brother. They mingled their tears together, even upon the bosom of his spiritual father. At that session he was ordained and is now one of the most pious and useful ministers in Ihe' Ohio Conference. Pork Trade in the Vest. The Cincinnati Chronicle of the - 2nd inst says: Four houses were cuttingyesterday in this city, mostly on drovers' accovrt: A sale of 100 bead, average weight 165 pounds, was made at $2.75. The pens on this side of the river are all empty, but we learn there weresome lots in those in Cov ington. The Lo 'sville Courier of the 31st tilt says—"We heard of 'a sale to-day of 1500 head of hogs to a packer, at $2,50 nett, to be delivered in Louisville er'en early day. This is the first transaction this season." The Alton Telegraph of 25111 ult. reports several contracts for Hogs in that city at $2,50 for early de livery. It also notices contracts for beef cattle at $2,50a53.50. The Maysville Herald, of 31st tilt., states that there were GOO head of hogs in the pens of one of the operators in that city, ready for the knife, and that one of the packing houses had commenced oper ations. The same paper says: "We learn that hold ers are willing to take $2.00, but, so far, there are no buyers at that price. There is a general feeling of depression in the market, and few, if any, have filed their figures for future operation." The Indiana State Journal, of 31st ult ~ says:— "There seems to be but little doing in the pork ba siness in this city. Messrs. Mansur & Sons have prepared themselves to pack a large amount, and we understand that an enterprising citizen of Lawrence burg has leased the slaughtering and packing estab lishment of Mi. Blythe, for the purpose of killing and putting up a large amount of pork. A consul erable amount of cooperage .a now in store in thi city, ready to supply packers." liocis.—We are authorised to say that on yester day two dollars and fifty cents per hundred pound. was offered for twelve hundred hogs, and it is sup posed that even a higher price was paid.—Xadison (Ind.)" Banner, Oct. 31. To Young Woriten. Some one hath said, that "matrimony is with women the great business of life, whereas with men it is only an incident," an important one, to be sure, but only one among many to which their attention is directed, and often kept entirely out of view. Now, this difference gives the other sex a great advantage over you; and the best way to equalize your lot, and become as wise as they are, is to think as little about it as they do, The less your mind dwells upon lovers and mat rimony, the more agreeable and profitable will be your intercourse with gentlemen. It you regard men as intellectual beings, who have access to cer tain sources of knowledge of which you are de prived, and seek to derive all the lienefit you can from their pecular attainments and experience—if you talk to them as one rational being should to another, and never remind them that you are can didates tio]. matrimony—you will enjoy far more. than you can by regarding them under that one aspect of possible future admirers and lovers. When that is the only absorbing thought, you have not the proper use of your faculties; your manners are 'constrained and awkward, you are easily em barrased and made to say what is ill judged, silly and out of place; and you defeat your own views by appearing to a great disadvantage. However secret you may be in -these specula tions, if you are continually.thinking of them, and attaching undue importance to the acquaintance of gentlemen, it will most certainly show itself in your manners and conversation, and will betray a weak ness that is held in especial contempt by the stronger sex. Since the customs of society have awarded to man the privilege of making the first adVance to wards matrimony, it is the safest and happiest way for woman to leave the matter entirely in his hands. She should be so educated as to consider that the great end of existence—preparation for eternity— may be equally attained in married or single life, and that no union bat the most perfect one is at all desirable. .)latrimony should be considered as an incident in life, which if it come at all, must come without any contrivance of yOurs; and therefore you may safely put aside all thoughts of it till some one forces the subject upon your notice by profes sions of a particular interest in you. Lively, ingenicuis, conversable, and charming lit tie girls are often spoiled into dull, bashfril, silent young ladies, and all because their heads are full of nonsense about their beaux and lovers. They have a thousand thoughts and feelings which they would be ashamed to entertain; and their pre-occupation with a subject which they had better let alone, pre , . rnts their being the agreeable and rational companions of the gentlemen of their acquaintance, which they were designed to be. Girls get into all sorts of scrapes by undue pre occupation of mind ; they misconstrue the com monest attention into marks 'of particular regard,' arid thus nourish a fancy for a person who has never once thought of them but as an agreeable acquaintance. They lose the enjoyments of a party, if certain beaux are riot there whom they expected to meet; they become jealous of their best friends if the beaux are there and do not talk to them as much as they wish; every trifle is magnified into somethirwmf importance—a fruitful source of mis ery—and'things of real importance are neglected for chimeras. And all this gratuitous pains-taking defeats its own end! The labor is all in vain; such girls are not the most popular; and those who seem never to have thought about matrimony at all, are sought and preferred before them. We may add the ads ice that young women should not consider it a serious misfortune, even if never mar ried; there is nothing disreputable, while there may be mach happiness in the condition of an old- maid. An Eloquent Extract. Few paragraphs in our language equal the. fol lowing in eloquence, wisdom and patriotism.— They are from the pen of the immortal JACKSON, and composed part of his message on the occasion of his vetoing the U. S. Bank: If I had been ambitious, I should have sought an alliance with that powerful institution (U. S. Bank,) which even now aspires to no divided empire. If I had been venal I should have sold myself to its designs ; had I preferred personal ease, to the per formance of my arduous duty, I should cease to molest it. In the history of conquerers and usurp ers, never in the tire of thy youth, nor in the vigor of manhood, could I find attraction to allure me from the path of duty; and now, I shall scarcely find an inducement to commence the career of am. bition, when grey hairs and decayed frame, instead of inviting to toil and battle, call me to the con templation of other worlds, where conquerers cease to be honored, and usurpers expiate their crimes. The-only ambition I can feel, is to acquit myself to Him, to whom I must soon render an account of my stewardship, to serve my fellow men, and live respected and honored in the history of my country. No, the ambition which leads me on, is an anxious desire and a fixed determination, to return to the people, unimpaired, the sacred trust they have con fided to my charge Yoheal the wounds of the con stitution, and preserve it from further violation; to persuade my countrymen so far as I may, that it is nut in a splendid government, supported by pow erful monopolies arid aristocratical establishments, that they will find happiness, or their liberties pro tected ; but in a plain system, void of pomp, pro tecting all, and granting favors to none; dispensing its blessims like the dews of Heaven, unseen and unfelt, save in the freshness and beauty they con tribute to produce. FEMALE TEMPEE—Sensible Remarks.—The Boston Olive Branch thus sensibly discourses of female We like to see a woman of spirit and life; for a dull, supine; prosy woman is a poor affair indeed. And we have no particular objection to- seeing "the sparks flying occasionally," when something stirring occurs. We like- to see her joyful and lively; and if she has a little spice of waggery, we can put up with it very Well; nay, we like it all the better. But r a'cross, sour temper, we have no good opinion oty for a woritart who can never look pleas ant, bulls always frettir ' , and scolding, will make anyuihappy home for all within her hiause. And we had as lief undertake to live in a barrel of vinegar in a thunder storm as to live in the house with such a woman. Solomon was right when he said, "It is better to live in the corner of a house top than to dwell in a wide house with a brawling woman." Let a woman wear sunshine on her Countenance, and it will drive the dark clouds from her husband's face, and joy will thrill through the hearts of her children. Let a woman's words be soothing aud kind, and every thing is happy around her. Her influence will be powerhd. Others will catch her sweet temper, and all will strive to see whii can be most like her. Sweetness of temper in a woman is more valuable than gold, and more to be prized than beauty. But may Heaven keep us from an Untamed shrew whose looks are wormwood and whose words are gall! We had rather take Daniel's place with the lions, than think of living within gunshot of such a termagant. If 'women knew their power and wished to exert it, they would al ways show sweetness of temper, for theathey are irresistible. EFFECT OF SALT ON WSEAT.—The Rochester American, of a recent date says:—Some of our readers may recollect that last fall we mentioned an experiment made by Mr. John Park, of Gates, by sowing a barrel of salt to an-acre upon a sum mer fallow. The ground was plowed once the pre ceding fall, plowed again in May, and salt sowed -hereon as above; and afterwards plowed twice be ore seeding. On the Ist and 2nd. of September cheat was sown, two bushels to the acre. The •rop has just been harvested, and Mr. P. is confident .t will yield forty bushels to the acre. The berry ie considers equal to the finest En g lish wheat. The National Polk. Gazelle states that coun erleit $lO notes, on• the Lancaster Bank, are in -irculation. They are dated January_ 1 or 2, 1844, atter B, and signed Christ Tachmar, Cashier, and James Evans, President. • NO. 43.
