T'be Orphan , » Dream of Fame.
I lehrned within myself to live. I saw
Deli in my childhood, that the heart's bright buds
Withered and faded at the touch. I turned
Froin all life's empty, heartless mockeries,
And wept my grief away on Nature's breast.
To be was given the deep and earnest love
Of holy solitude. I strayed alone
By i 4ock and stream, and through the forest depths,
Ant found a sweet and dear companionship
In every sigheand stand that greeted me
In all my wayward wanderings. ,
I learned
Glad music from the lark's free, gushing son ;
Anil my heart's sad and mournful minstrelsy
Fotind sweet interpretation in the low
Anil gentle wailings of the stricken dove.
Myl spirit rocked upon the swinging tops
On the tall oaks, that danced upon the waves
That leaped in light and music or in wrath
UpOn the shore; it rode upon the winds,
Soli whispering to the softly whispering leaves,
Or 'pealing like some deep-toned instrument
Thibugh the green banners of the wood; it sailed
Uphn the clouds that floated beautiful
Or Bark with tempest ; and it wandered off
Ateve to hold its joyous revelry
With all the thousand spirit-shapes that bathed
Their purple plumage in the rosy waves
FlOoding the sunset. My dear Mother's smile,
Cabght by the stars from Eden, sweetly shone
Inltheir pure light on 'my uplifted eyes;
And her soft words of cheer came to my soul,
Ott every gale of morn, and noon, and eve,
Alb holy midnight. I was happy then ;
Ayo happy! my lust Mother was in [leaven,
But Nature was my Mother on the earth,
Arid both seemed e'er to love me well.
At length
There came a change. The maddening dream of
fame,
The wish to shine among earth's proudest, took
Pcissession of my soul. No more I loved
The voice of birds, the shouting of the stream
Aid the green surging-of the woods. I bowed
In seeming admiration of the throng,
And felt my cheek buin and my pulses leap
' TO the vile breath of those I could but hate
Within my secret soul. The sneering thought
That started fiercely upward from my heart
Brightened to smiles upon my lips; my brain
Grew dizzy, and be tear was in my eye,
In with rode hand my spirit's chords were jarred
By those I sought to spurts beneath my feet.
I W
ildly struggled for the world's applause,
Bitt trembled at the I:tiniest word or blame
Aa 'tavern the voice of destiny. I won
The laurel crown, and with exulting heart
I Belt its thrilling pressure on toy brow;
But oh ! a breath of poison from the crowd
Passed o'er the blooming leaves, and nought re
maimed
Bin dust upon my temples. A bright name
Was my soul's idol, but a feeble blow
From hands unworthy shattered and cast down
That wildly worshipped idol from its shrine
Eotever and forever.
I Now, alas I
Joy, love, hope, pride, ambition all arc dead
Within my breast, I smile in bitterness
To think with what a madness of the soul
Il sought the worthless bauble. Like a gleam
Of moonlight from the mountain, or a flash
Of an expiring meteor from the deep,
Or the red sunset from the West,
That dream of fame has vanished from my life,
Tnd now I feel no pang of vain regret
hat it has perished thus
But 1 look back
Vith tears and sighs oh the departed years,
Then breeze and billow chaunted to my soul
'heir morning hymn and evening psalm; when on
.nd beautiful night's silver crescent shone
_upon my spirit, and when all the stars
ere to my eyes God's living poetry,7l
Traced by I i hand upon the sky's blue scroi
Ali! I am twice trn orphan, for alas !
[My mother Nature now is dead to me.
An Intrepid Mother
A THRILLING SKETCH
The diligence from Paris to Chalons stopped one
evening, just after dark, some miles beyond the lit
tle town of Ronvaay, to set down an English lady
and her child at a lonely roadside Auberge. Mrs.
Martin expected to find a carriage ready to take
her to Chateau de Senart, a distance of some
leagues, whether she was repairing on a visit, but
was told that it had not arrived. The landlady, a
tall, coarse-looking woman, who showed her into
the vast hall that served at once as a sitting room
and kitchen, observed that the roads were so mud
dy and difficult :it night there was little chance of
her friend arriving before morning. "You had bet
ter, therefore, she said, "make up lour mind to
sleep here. We have a good room to offer you;
and you will be much more comfortable between
a pair of cleah warm sheets, than knocking about
in our rough country, especially as your dear child
eems sickly.?
Mrs. Martin, though much fatigued by her jour
ney, hesitated. A good night's rest was certainly
a tempting prospect, but she felt so confident that
her friends would not neglect her, that after a mo
ment she replied : "thank you, madame, I will sit
up for an hour or so, it is not late, and the carriage
may come, after all. Should it not, I shall be glad
of your room, which you mayiprepare for me at
any rate."
The hostess, who seemed anxious that her gues
should not remain in the great room, suggested tha
a fire might be made above; but Mrs. M. bun
herself so comfortable where she was—a pile oi
faggots was blazing on the vast hearth—that she
declined at first to move. Her daughter, about five
years of age, soon went to sleep in her lap ; and
she herself found that while her ears were anxiously
listening for the roll of carriage wheels, her eyes
occasionally closed and slumber began to make its
insidious approaches.
In order to prevent herself from giving way, she
endeavored to direct her attention to the objects
around her. The apartment was vast and lighted
more by the glare of the fire than by the dirty can
dle stuck into a filthy tin candlestick, that stood on
one of the long tables. Two or three huge beams
stretched across, half way up the walls, leaving a
space filled with fighting shadows above. From
these depended a rusty gun or two, a sword, several
bags, hanks of onions, cooking utensils, &c. There
was very tew signs that the house - was much visi
ted, though a pile of empty wine bottles lay in one
corner. The landlady sat at some distance from
the fire-place with her two sons, who laid their
heads together and talked in whispers.
Mrs. Martin began to feel uneasy. The idea en
tered her mind that she had fallen into a resort of
robbers;—and the words" Cote elk," (it is she,)
which was all she heard of the whispered conver
sation, contributed to alarm her. The door leading
into the road was left ajar; and for a moment she
felt an inclination to start up and escape on toot.—
But she was far from any other habitation, and if
the people of the house entertained any evil designs,
her attempt wduld only precipitate the catastrophe.
So she resolved on patience, but listened attentively
for the approach of her friends. All she heard was
the whistling of the wind, and the dashing of the
rain, which had began to fall just alter her arrival.
About two hours passed in this uncomfortable
way. At length the door was thrown open, and a
man dripping wet came in. She breathed more
freely ; for this new corner might frustrate the evil
designs of her hostos, if she entertained any. He
was a redhaired, jovill faced looking man, and in
spired her with confidence by the frankness and
ease of his manners.
"A fine night for walking!" cried he, shaking
himself like adogwho has scrambled out of a pond.
"What have 'iou to give me? Salute, messieure
et mesdames. lam wet o the skin. Hope I dis
turb nobody. Give me a bottle of wine."
The hostess, in a surly, .sleepy tone, told her
eldest son to serve the gentleman ; and then addres
sing Mrs. Martin, said:
"You see your friends will not come, anci you are
keeping us up to no purpose. You had bitter go
to bed:'
„I will wait a little longer"' was the reply;
which elicited a kind of shruglof contempt.
The red-haired man finished off his bottle of
wine, and then said:
'''Show me a room, good wriman—l shall sleep
here to-night."
Mrs. Martin thought as he l pronounced these
words, he cast a protecting glance towards her;
-e° • 'din ,
and she felt less repugnance at the idea o: passing
the night in that house. 'When therefore, the red-
mar
haired man, alter a polite bony, went up stairs, she
said, that as her friends had not arrived, they
might as well show her to a bedroom.
"I thought it would come to that at last," said
the landlady. "Pierre, take the lady's trunks up,
stairs." I
In a few minutes, Mrs. Martin found herself
alone in a spacious room, with a large fire burning
on the hearth. Her first care, after putting the
child to bed, was to examine the door. , It closed
only by a latch. There was no bolt inside. She
i
looked around for something o barricade it with,
and perceived a heavy chest drawers. Fear gave
strength. She half lifted, half pushed it against
the door. Not content with this, she seized a tabl e
to increase the strength of he'r defence. The leg
was broken, and when she touched it, it fell with a
crash to the floor. A long ,echo went sounding
through the house, and she felt her heart sink with
in her. But the echo died away and no one came;
so she piled the fragments Of the table upon the
chest of drawers. Tolerablykatisfied in this direc
tion, she proceeded to examine the walls. They
were all well papered, and after careful examina
tion, seemed to contain no secret door.
Mrs. Martin now sank doWn into a chair to re
flect on her position. As was natural after having
taken all these pr cautions. the idea suggested it
self that it might' be supertidous, and she s. - niled at
the thought of what her friends would soy when
she related to them the terrors of the night. Her
child was sleeping tranquilly, its rosy cheeks half
buried in the pillow. The fire had blazed up into
a bright flame while the unsnuffed candle burned
dimly. The room was full of pale trembling shad
ows, but she had no superstitious fears. Something
positive could alone rise alarm. She listened at
tentively, but could hear ntAhini , but the howling
of the wind over the roof, and the' pattering of rain
against the window panes. lAs her excitement di
minished, the fatigue—which
had been forgotten—
began again to make itself felt, and she resolved to
undress and go to bed. 1
Her heart leaped into her throat. For a mo
ment she seemed perfectly paralyzed, Shy had un
dressed and put out the midi., when she acciden
tally dropped her watch. Stooping to pick it up,
her eyes voluntarily glanced towards the lied. A
great mass of red hair, a hand, and a gleaming
knife were revelled by the light of the fire. After
the first moment of the terrible alarm, her presence
of mind returned. She feltithat she had herself cut
of all means of escape by the door, and was left
entirely to her own resources. Without uttering a
cry, but trembling in every limb, the poor woman
got into the bed by the side of her child. An idea
—a plan—had suggested itselt. It had flashed
through her brain like lightning. It was the only
chance left. I
The bed was so dispoSed that the robber could
get from' benea h it by ainarrow aperture at :he
head without making a noise ; and it was probable
that lie would choose, frcim prudence, this means
of exit. There was no cuetain in the way, so Mrs.
:\ lartin, with terrible decision and noiseless energy,
made a running noose with her silk scarf, and held
it poised over the aperttire by which her enemy
was to make his appearance. She had resAved to
strangle him in defence oil her own life and that of
her child,,,
The 'position was an awful one; and probably,
had she been able to direct her attention to the stir
rounding circumstances, she might have given way
to her fears and attempted to raise the house by her
screams. The fire on the hearth, unattended to,
had fallen around, and nosy gave only a dull, sullen
light, with an occasional bright gleam. Every ob
ject in the .vast apartment glowed with a restless
motion. Now and then a mouse advanced stealth
ily along the floor, but, startled by some movement
under the bed, went scouring. back in terror to its
hole. The child breathed steadily in its uncon
scious repose; the mother endeavored also to imi
tate slumber, but the man under the bed, uneasy in
his position, could not avoid occasionally making a
slight noise. .
Mrs. Martin was occupied with only ii.vo ideas.
First she reflected on the ',extraordinary delusion by
which she had been led to see enemies in the people
of the hobse and a friend in the red-haired man; and
secondly, it struck her that as he would fear no re•
sistance from a womand he might push away the
chairs that were in the way, regardless of the noise,
and thus avoid the Snare that was laid for him.—
Once even she thoughd that whilst her atten
tion was strongly directed to one spot, he had made
his exit; and was leaning over her; but she was de
ceived by a flickering shadow on the opposite wall.
In reality there was no danger that he would com
promise the success of his sanguinary enterprise;
the shrieks of a victim put on its guard, might
alarm the house.
Have you ever stood,
wailing with the ferocious pa
tience of an angler for tibble? If you have, you
have some faint idea of he state of mind iii which
Mrs. Martin—with far 'other interests at stake—
passed the time, until an, old clock on the chimney
plane told one after midnight. Another source of
anxiety now presented itself—the fire had nearly
burned out. Her dizzy eyes could scarcely see the
floor, as she bent wain fearful attention over the
head of the bed—the terrible noose hanging, like
the sword of Damocles, above the gloomy aperture.
"What," she thought, ‘if he delay his appearance
until the light has completely died away? Will it
not then be impossible for me to adjust the scarf—
to do the deed—to killi this assassin—to save my
self and my child? Oh, God! deiiiier him into my
hands!"
A cautious movement below—the dragging of
hands and knees along the floor—a heavy suppressed
breathing—announced that the supreme moment
was near at hand. Heil white arms were bared to
the shoulders; her hair fell wildly around her face,
like the mane of a lioness about to leap upon its
prey; the distended orbits of her eyes glared down
upon the spot where the question of life and death
was to be seen decidedi Time seemed immeasur
ably lengthened out; every second assumed the pro
portions of an hour. 'But at last, just as all lines
and forms began to flriat, before her sight through
an indistinct medium Of blending light and dark
ness, a black mass interposed between her eyes and
the floor. Suspense being over, the time of action
having arrived, everythipg seemed to pass with ma.-
ical rapidity. The robber thrust his head carefully
forward. Mis. Martinl bent down. There was a
hall .choaked cry—thel sound of a knife falling to
the floor—a convulsive struggle. Pull! pull! pull!
Mrs. Martin heard nothing—saw nothing, but
the scarf passing oven the head of the bed be
tween her two nakedfeet. She had half thrown
herself back, and holding her scarf with both hands,
pulled with desperate energy for her life. The con
flict had begun; and one or the other must perish.
The robber was a povv i erful man, and made furious
eff 'tots to get loose; but in vain. Not a sound es
caped his lips—not a sound from hers. The (head
ful tragedy was acted in silence.

"Well, Mother Guerard," cried a young man,
leaping out of a carriage that stopped before the
door of the Aubergel next morning, "wharnews
have you got for me?_ Has my mother arrived?'
"Is it your • mothei• I" asked the landlady, who
seemed quite good humored after her night's rest.
'There's a lady up stairs waiting for some friends,
but she does not speak French easily, and seemed
unwilling to talk. We could scarcely persuade her
to go to bed."

towards the head of the bed. The child had thrown
its arms around her neck, and was crying; but she
paid no attention. The terror of that dreadful night
had driven her mad.

and was in a constant quarrel with every bay in the
neighborhood. Mrs. Partington looked at the min- '

answered. "Rather a rascal!" said she, slightly mis

that word "irrascible," ran in her head for an hour
after he was gone. and when Ike came in she told
him to take down the old Johnson's Decency and

Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon•
don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col
leges of the United States and the greater part of
whose life has been spent in the Ilospitals of Lon
don, Paris, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has affect
ed some of the most astonishing cures that were
ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the
ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being
alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE PALO ICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private and improper lndulgenciee,
that secret and solitary habits, which rum both
body and mind, unfitting them for either basiness
or epeiety. •
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Po%ver,
1.
pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &e.
Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded:, Loss of Memory, Confusion
of ideas,. Depressio of Spirits, Evil et Foretio•
ding, Aversion of Society, Sell Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c. ,are some of the evils pro
duced.
N EItIMUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of thrsystem, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destium
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to .
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are the most apt to become its Victims from
an igdorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guaidians are often mis
led with respect to the cause or source of disease
in their sons and wards. Alas! how of:en do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consutnption, also those serious
Mental effects, such as loss of Memory, Depres
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when
the truth is they have been caused by Indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to
both Body and Mind. 'rhos are swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
ment to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS
immediately cured and full vigor restored.
Oh, how happy
who have been
red to health from the devastations of those terrific
maladies which result from indiscretion. Such
person's, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,.
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro'
life becomes a weury pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately.

JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon Ids
skill oh a Physician

The many thousands cured at this institution
within the last ten years, and the numerous im•
