Ye fair ones attend, I've an offer to make you— In hymen's soft bonds I am anxious to hvo, For better, for worse, a companion take you. Provided you 411 the description I give. I neitherli4cet nor can hope for perfection, For that never yet was a bacheltirs lot ; But choosing a wife, I'd make a selection Which many in my situation would not. I'd have, let me see—l'd not have a beauty, For beautiful women are apt to be vain : Yet, with a small share, I would think it a duty, To take her u be thankful, and never complain, Her form must be good, without art to constrain it, And rather above than below middle size; A something, it puzzles my brain to explain it, Like eloquent language must flow from her eyes. She must be well bred, or I cannot respect her, Good natured and modest, but not very coy ; Her mind well informed—'tia the principal nectar That sweetens the cup of hymenial joy. Her home she must love and domestic employ ment, Have practical knowledge of household affairs, And make it a part of her highest enjoyment To soften my troubles and lighten my cares. Her age I would have it at least to be twenty, But not to exceed twenty-eight at the most; And the girls of that age being everywhere plenty, I hope to get fine of that numerous host. No fortune I ask—l have no predilections For ., glitier or show, or the pomp Of high life, I wish to be bound by the chains of affection, And now I have drawn you the sketch of a wile. All Mankind are Barbers. NI prove to you, my friend, I hope, That pone a doubt can harbor ; But all the world's a barber shop, And every ones a barbel. Some shave to make themselves look neat, And some because 'tie funny; But brokers shave you in the street, And only shave for money. ,(.. Some shave their foreheads, sli and clean, If with low heads they are b thered, But then 'tin plainly to be B r een That they. are the ones that lath red. To court a girl with eloquence, The dandy never : frets her; But lathers her with compliments, And shaves her when he gets her. The maidens, also now and then, Who ate so fond of sporting, Soft soap the shallow minded men, And shave'em while they're courting But men and girls who thus will boast or soaping while they tarried, Will find at last, with bitter cost,:, That both get shaved when married. Jenny Birch or the Rescue A REVOLUTIONARY mill'. It won a hr ght Sunday afternoon, in July, 17711, and the inhabitants of R-- had assembled for Di vine worship. It is necessary that we should refer our readers back that they might know the exi•d ing state of things in R— at the time of the commencement of our story. The war had been waging with great fury, and the little settlement oil— had noLbeen exempt from the ravag es of the ruthless savages in the em ploy of the B ritish. Numerous attacks had been made, and several of the inhabitants had been killed; but all attempts at a general surprise and massacre had failedb and from the superior skill of the brave settlers of R— they were enabled to encounter the Indians in their own mode of warfare, and were always on their guard. Having failed in all attempts to surprise the set tlement, the Indians suddenly disappeared--proba bly in search of easier prey. But there was one among them, a• young chief, Who was still deter mined to accomplish the object, and he had greater inducement than plunder—revenge! Ondega, the chief, loved—but with the wild love of a savage—the brighest and best flower that bloomed in the pretty valley 01 R—. Before the war he had endeavored to gain the maiden's consent to become his bride, and be the mistress of his for est home. But the lovely Jenny Birch had smiled e,his vivid and glowing representations of happi ness, and endeavored to teach him that a white maid en could never he happy in such a situation. But lie still persevered, and she at last refused him kindly but decidedly. Ondega's love was now transformed into a bitter hatred; and with vows of revenge he disappeared from the settlement, and nothing more was heard of him till the breaking out of the Revolutionary war, when news was brought by some of the settlers that (Julega was one of the leaders of the Indians that were continually ravaging the surrounding country, and had led one of the parties that at one time attacked the settlement and were repulsed. • When this was communicated'to Jenny Birch, she was very much alarmed, for 'she remembered the threat of Ondega at parting, and; rightly guessed that he was now endeavoring to carry the threat into execution; but, on making known her tears to the settlers, she was assured that no hand 'should harm her as long as there was a mati in R— that could raise a rifle. Among the most earnest in their efforts to quiet her fears was Edwin Pierson, a young man, just one year the senior of Jenny—twenty one. He was noble hearted, handsome, intelligent, brave, and ac knowledged as the best marksman in the settlement. There was a similarity of sentiment between Edwin and Jenny, and they were always happy when in each other's company. As we have said before, all the Indians had left the vicinity of R— but Ondega and his followers. He had resolved to take advantage of the fact of the settlers somewhat relaxing their watchfulness, in consequence of the apparent vacation of the coun try by the Indians, to make a last and desperate ef fort for revenge. All his plans were matured, and he was ready to strike the blow that, if successful, would send sorrow to so many hearts. Nearly a week before the opening of our story, a large number of the most experienced and hardy settlers had left the settlement to go to another por tion of the country to aid in the battles for liberty. Little did they know how their services were need ed at home. • All the settlers in the village at the time were assembled in the church on-the Sabbath. Not one, old or young, but was present, It was the first time for a long while that the privilege was theirs to hear the word of God spoken to them, and they had assembled to thank Providence, for preserving their lives amid surrounding dangers. Jenny Birch' and her parents were there, and also the parents of Edwin Pierson; but Edwin was not there He had accompanied the party that had lett the settlement. The structure where the services were held was a substantial log building, and for safety from at. tack, the windows were placed high from the ground anFlurniahed with heavy oak.shutters which were controlled from the interior of the building. The roof was covered with a species of elate. The build. ing had been made as a place of refuge in times of danger, hence the peculiarity. Now to return: Theservices had! ommenced, and the congrega. Lion bad just finished singing the morning hymn, when the shrill war whoop started them all to their feet, and at the same moment the large oak door was thrown open, and an Indian with uplifted tom. ahawk, sprang into the church, and close behind him followed scores of painted warriors with the deafening war whoop still on their.lips. Mr. Birch was seated blind thedoor, and as the Indian sprang past him, With the speed of thought, he leaped upon him arid" pinioned his arms behind him. The next moment, ere the remainder 01 the savages could follow, the strong arms of one of the settlers had forced the door shut, and notwithstand tog the furious onset made by the savages, he with the aid of one or two others, succeeded in effectu ally barring the door, and all sprang to their arms. After a short but fierce struggle, Mr. Birch suc ceeded in securing the savage who bad entered, and non the stubborn captive lay panting on the floor. All was confusion among the women and children; bybut in a few moments, a little effort on the part of the pastor, quiet was restored. The Indian captive was placed in a safe place, and measures were taken by the settlers to render the defence more secure. 'They were well armed, all having: taken their weapons to church with their, and there was a store of ammunition and pro visions in a vault beneath the church. The savages, after having been defeated in their efforts to enter the church had drawn off to a short distance. Ondega was much chagrined at the fail ure, and was very active in his endeavors to plan something that would effect his purpose. Directly after the first assault, Mr. Birch and his son George, a fine lad of eighteen years, had de scended into the vault of the church, when Mr. Birch removed a door, disclosing a dark passage. ' George,' said Mr. Birch, 'you know where this leads to—the old oak by the creek. It is but a few rods, and when'you get there, wait till you hear the crack of the rile, and then raise the sod under the . large root, and when you get out, run as fast as .you can, and with as little noise as possible till you get out of the reach of the Indians, and then you know what to do. Now go George, and may God speed you, and grant that you may be the instru ment of saving all of our lives. Keep good cour age!" 'Yes, father, I will!' said the noble boy, and pres sing his father's hand he entered the passage. Mr. Birch ascended to the church and stepping to the middle of the room said : 'Listen I—George is iu the passage below, and we must do something to divert the attention of the Indians from the oak, so •that he may get out and go to Edwin.' We can lire a volley into them,' said a settler, ' Yes that would be very good,' said Mr. Birch. 'Let me,get a look through the window. You had better take a loop-bole Mr. B. or some of the red skins will see you,' said Mr. Pierson, laying his hand on Mr. Birch's shoulders, he being about to mount a bench to look through a window. 'Thank you, Mr. Pierson, .I forgot myself I' and Mr. Birch stood fOr a moment looking through one of the loop.holes. 'There is an Indian standing right by the oak, but all the rest are on the right of it, and if we put that one out of the way,George can get through,' said Mr. Birch, turning round to the settlers who were awaiting the result of his scrutiny. Well, leave that to me!' said a hardy back woodsman. 'When you fire a volley to call the attention of the other Indians, I will fire my volley and call his attention!' This was agreed to, and at the moment of the simultaneous reports, the savage by the oak tree was seen to fall without uttering a cry, and instan taneously Gecifge issued forth from the passage, and disappeared up the creek, without being no ticed by the savages. ' The night came on, and the Indians now set fire to the deserted dwellings of the settlers, who were obliged to witness the destruction of their property witholit the power to prevent it; but the sharp crack 01 a rifle ever and anon, would tell that they were on the watch, and whenever a dusky form was seen sufficiently exposed to present a fair mark it was sure to be instantly used as such, and seldom did the marksman fail. The Indians, too, had guns furnishedit hem by the British agents, but they could not be brought into use, as the settlers were secure behind the heavy wall of the church. And where was Jenny Birch all this time, and what was she doing? At the first moment of the attack, she had, with wonderful presence of mind assisted in soothing the fears of the females, and from that time till dark had not taken a moment's rest. Most of the time she was engaged in mould ing bullets. preparing refreshment for the hungry ones, and doing sundry other little matters for the convenience of all. After the fears of the womenhacl somewhat sub' sided, they assisted Jenny in her kind office, and when night came on, all insisted that she should take some rest. She yelided to their desires, but sleep visited her not that night—nor were there many in that little castle it did visit. Morning came, and not an Indian was to be seen —all had dispersed! The settlers were somewhat surprised at this, although the most experienced backwoodsmen pronounced that they were prepa riag for a desperate struggle, and that the settlers must be prepared for them. Sentinels were stationed, aid meals were served to the weary men. Preparations were made for a desperate defence. Each man sharpened well his dirk knife, and a large quantity of bullets were moulded. All was quiet till eleven o'clock, and the settlers began to think the Indians had left for certain, when the shrill war hoop ringing out on the pure air gave warning that a terrific struggle was at hand. In stantly every man was at his post. In• a moment the Indians rushed on the church, and notwithstand ing the murderous discharge of fire-arms that greet ed them, carrying death to many of their number, commenced a furious attack on the door with their hatchets. The settlers continued to pour a galling fire on the savages; but after some time a break was made through the heavy oak door, sufficient to ad mit the body of a man, when a savage leaped through: He was scarcely inside the church when his head was cleft by an axe in the hand of Mr. Pierson. The Indians now poured through the aperture, and, although they met with a desperate resistence, were last accumulating inside the door. The door was unbarred by those who had reached the inside and all rushed in eager for blood. But they were opposed by men fighting for their loved ones and their homes. The settlers no longer used their rifles but resort ed to their knives, and the manner in which they, were used showed that it was no new weapon in their hands. And it was evident that this unequal contest could not last much longer. Although none of the settlers had as yet been killed, scarcely one but was severely wounded. The savages outnumbered them two to one. Seeing the desperate state of things Jenny Birch seized'a tomahawk which had been thrown down, and rushed into the thickest of the fight, and for a moment that tomahawk was sus pended in the air and when it descended it carried a messenger of death to a savage whose tomahawk was pending over her father's head. This was seen by the savages, and for a moment hostilities were suspended, and squaw ! squaw! burst simultaneously from the lips of each one. At this moment a shout proceeded from the creek and Edwin Pierson sprang to the rescue with his brave followers. Ondega caught sigat of Jenny as she stood with bloody tomahawk still in her hand, and with a fiendish whoop and uplifted towahawk, he sprang towards her to strike the deadly blow.— A rifle-shot sped through the air, from the uner ring rifle of Edwin Pierson, and Ondega was strech ed lifeless on the floor. His followers, now with out a leader, were easily conquered. We Will not attempt to describe the happy scene which followed. Husbands clasped wives and children to their breast, the good pastor although severely wounded in the conflict, knelt down and offered up thanks to God for their deliverance.— Jenny had swooned from over excitement, was in the arms of Edwin Pierson, who atlength succeed ed in restoring her to consciousness. The wounded were kindly cared for, and in time recovered. Oncldga received a decent burial, as did the reat of his followers whd had been killed. There in the centre of that little village, in the year 1798, stood an old timeworn church, It still stood as a monument to the bravery of the early settlers. That noble fooking man, with the beautiful wo man leaning on his arm, and pretty children hang ing fondly around, is Edwin Pierson. It is need less to say .that the lovely lookihg woman is Jane Pierson—not Birch. They are looking at the church and relating to the listening children the story of the struggle and rescue. And there are the parents of both Edwin and Jenny; and. there is George Birch and his pretty wile, and all seem so happy. 4, How beautiful the scene to thee, Words of mine may not tell." And now kind reader, I bid thee farewell, and begging your indulgence for having trespassed in laying before you my simple tale, I bid you for the present, good bye. "THAT COUNTRY IS TSB HOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE CUTEST REWARD." CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 2, 1853. The Discontented Violets. ♦N ALLEGORY The violets, beautiful modest flowrets, once on a time, long, long ago, became foolish and discon tented. They sent up a petition to their mistress and mother, the Fairy Queen. "How long," said they petulently, "are we doomed to cower under our leaves, and beneath the very mass that clings to the roots of the trees? Are we not as worthy to shape our faces and assert our presence as you gaudy tulip, or that upright auricular The Fairy Queen sent her foreign ambassador to appease her discontented subjects. He flew to the earth in a drop of•rain, and cried to the offend ed violets, " Be assured you are more lovely and in teresting in your humble, unassuming sphere, than you can possibly be in one more ex eked. Your constitution will not admit of any change in your condition. Who ever heard of a tall aspiring vio let? " And for that very reason," they all exclaimed, " it is high time we assumed a more important and conspicuous position in the flower world: We have been secluded long enough. We feel as competent to hold up our heads as othsrs. It is unjust bon dage to conceal any longer our purplescented blos soms. Give us freedom ; let us see around us, and be seen." The Fairy Queen frowned and sighed, and rode down on a sunbeam to punish her disaffected sub jects. "Oh my children," she exclaimed, "he wise ere it is too late; you are altogether unfitted 1 for the position you seek. Be happy, be contented. Thousands of happy violets have lived among the moss and leaves, playing merry bopeep with the gentle summer zephyr and glancing sunbeams,— What sweeter life could you desire? It is far bet ter you should attract the passer-by to search for your sweet blossoms by the soft perfume you shed around, than if you stared him in the face at every corner, your unprotected odors rudely dispersed ny .every wind that sweeps by. I will grant your re quest, my daughters; but, alas! it will be a fatal one for you. No longer shall the village children, as they come from gchool, loiter in the lanes, to smell the pleasant scent of springs violets, and laugh for joy when they spy the blue flowrets lurking be hind the broad sheltering leaves. No longer shall the weary denizen of the hot dusty city inhale grate fully your perfumed breath on a spring Sabbath, as he strays to hedgerows. No more shall the eager lover search for you in your green hiding-places, to lay you on his mistress's bosom, and call her modest and exquisite as yourselves. Never again shall the duteous child, with anxious eyes, look dil ligently for the odorous buds that will call a grate ful froth the lips of a flying mother, as she wanders-back in memory to the hours passed away when the light-hearted, young, and strong, ran to the well known bank where the fairest violets were lourid. No more—but it is enough; you will prove for yourselves the truth." She folded her wings, and drooped-her head, as she slowly return ed in her bright chariot to Fairlyland. The ,prayer was granted. The violets suddenly started up, tall and aspiring, upon straight high stalks, and braved the full heat of the sun. They were glorified for a brief space, but soon the bright beams that danced in their eyes dazzled and con fused them. They longed for one leaf to soften the intensity of the rays, but low at their feet were these sweet vails. A few repentant flowers strove to step to the old and pleasant couch where they had oft reclined in shady ease; their slender stems snapped in the effort, and they lay broken and lite lass-on the earth. Nor were their proud compan ions more fortunate. One hour scorched with heat, the next shivering in the rough approaches of the varying wind, their delicate color faded, their fresh liquid beauty fled; pale scentless blossoms only re mained, the jest of the flower world. Rosy tulips flushed deeper with scorn, and the full sweet rose looked anxious and displeased. Even the bees, as they wandered by, called no more to sing the sweet flattery of old in their ears, but paused on, without recognition, to other fair blooms, and their small voices seemed to chat a solemn reproof. The sweet primroses and buttercups mourned for their old friends, and sighed for the olden days of happy com panionship. And the poor violet, the flower of modesty, became a byword and a laughing stock. Quickly this foolish generation became few in num ber, and faded in beauty. One by one drooped, bro ken hearted, and all their high ambitious aspirings were quenched in cold death. At last but two re mained, poor broken monuments upon the graves of their companions. The pitying wind heard their despairing sighs, and bore them tenderly and faith fully to Fairyland. "Go tell them," said the Fairy Queen, "their pun ishment is severe but ,merited. Yet before those survivors die, bear a message of forgiveness and hope. Their own doom is sealed, their unhappy days are numbered, but from their ashes shall arise a happier race. Bright, blue, and sweet, shall be their•children's faces. No traces shall they inherit of their progenitors' weaknesses and misfortunes.— My love shall make them beautiful and blessed." The soft wind whispered these sweet words in the ear of the unhappy violets. '•We die content," they murmured; "but hear, sweet zephyr, our last request—receive our legacy. When our sweet representatives shall bloom in the future spring time, to you, 0- breeze! we intrust this solemn charge. Let them have the benefit of our bitter experience, that they may learn their chief happiness and only security is in humility.— If ever they confide to you a wish, a fancy that re minds you of our fatal mistake, bear it far away 0 breeze! upon your wings, and instil instead the sweet spirit of content and lowliness. Thus, in your voice, we, though silent, shall ever speak, and our old friendship shall be a pledge for your faith ful guardianship." "It shall," sighed the breeze sadly; "Farewell!" and he hid his face. When he looked up he chant ed a wild dirge of sorrow over the graves of the dead violets.—Sliarpe's London Magaztne. ST. PAUL, MINMSSOTA.-A friend in the city handed us a short letter the other- day, received from a very intelligent gentleman now residing at St. Paul, which gives us a very interesting descrip4.:.' tionot the prosperity and : prospects of the new town. We append extracts It is situated at the head of navigation on the Mississippi river, to which the largest boats are ac cessible, but no further, in consequence of St. An thony's Falls, aliout six miles above St. Paul's.— Three and a half years ago there were but a few log huts in the place, and now its population is three thoOsand. It continues to increase and houses are going up fast. About one-half the population is Catholic, (French and Irish.) St. Paul is a Bish oprick. The Bishop's name is Cretin, a pious, seal ous Frenchman. The town has a very business-like appearance; lota are considered fine stock for spec ulation; and vary from $lOO to $1,250, (50 feet by 160 feet,) in proportion to their business or central locations. The land for farming purposes is very fine, partly woodland and partly prairie. The win ters are very cold, but still more pleasant and heal thy than ours. They have no winds nor rains du ring the whole winter, but the weather is bright and cheerful and subject to none of the vicissitudes of our seasons, which are the cause of so much sick ness. They had' twenty-eight behutitul days last January. They have a snow about the middle of November which remains on the ground all winter, about one foot to eighteen inches deep. In the summer it is one of the most delightful places in the world. St. Paul is surrounded by most beauti ful crystal lakes, varying from one to twenty-five miles long, abounding in the finest fish. I ate the best potatoes I ever tasted in St. Paul. The country is filling up with farmers, and so soon as they get well into operation, every thing will be cheaper and more abundant. It is is supposed St. Paul will be a very important point, and destined to become a large city.—News. WHEELIE°, July 22.—The Ohio river is still low. The water is but 26 inches deep on the bars today, and the boats have nearly quit running to Pittsburg. The steamer Rescue lelt here yesterday for Cincinnati, with the passengers and freight by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad from the East.— Freights nre rich-40 cents to Cincinnati and 55 cents to Louisville. TR.= rR BERBIES.—It is. l aid that the dew black and whortle berries, taken from Bennett's Pier, Milford Neck, alone, in Kent county, Dela ware, have returned to the owners the past season over $5,000. During the season it has been no un common thing for the steamer Zephyr to be freight ed with $3OO worth of these fruits. HIT Hing Awarr.—A practical exemplification of this disposition is witnessed daily. Peace ma kers are rarely met with, but wags and lovers of sport can be seen at every torn, edging and spurring belligerents and quarrelsome persona and ready to whisepr in their ears—"hit him again." A vast amount of evil, consequently, originates in certain quarters, which otherwise would have no existence. As a striking illustration of this truth we give an incident of recent occurrence. A gentleman in passing a neighbor in a "brown study," neglected to return the mutual recognition or accustomed salutation. The neighbor felt grieved, and upon meeting a pretended friend related the street inci-- dent in a censorious manner. This man (the third,) instead of following the guidance of charity and offering an explanation for the conduct of the sup posed "stuck up" gentleman, added fuel to the fire already kindled by remarking—q have heatd him say that you were half black, dishonest, and that he intended to henceforth to cut our acqurantance." This was not a malicious but a careless lie, nev erthelessa, the neighbor believed it. Going home with a scowl on his brow, and his heart boiling over with rage, among the first things he did was to order the gentleman's children from the yard.— Not hastening out as fast as his spite dictated, he accelerated the speed of one theal by the applica tion of his toot to the youngster. A general- flare-up ensued. The women called one another uply names, the children threw stones across 'he fence, -and the men shook their fists under one another's nose.. A law-suit followed; another, and still an other, the false friend abetting all the while. Old grudges were drummed up, a list of witnesses was subpmned, and complaints entered freely. 'After suing one another for breaches of the.peace, before seveal magistrates, they .had each other arrested for debt, and so for several days kept the fuss alive. The crowd laughed, the aldermen and officers were in clover, and the poor devils were fleeced of all their savings, perhaps, for the last six months. It is, most assuredly, poor satisfaction to hit him again."-- Wheeling Times. THE DEAD WIPE.—In comparison with the loss of a wife all other bereavements are trifles. The wife, she who fills so large a space in the domestic heaven, she who is so busied, so unwearied—bitter, bitter is the tear that falls on her clay. You stand beside her grave, and think of the past; it seems an amber-colored pathway, where the sun shone upon beautiful flowers, or the stars hung glittering over head. Fain would the soul linger here. No thorns are remembered above that sweet clay, save those your own hand may have unwillingly planted.— Her noble, tender heart lies open to your inmost sight. You think of her as all gentleness, all beau ty and purity. But . she is dead! The dear head that so often laid_upon your bosom,_now rests upon a pillow of clay. The hands that administered so untiringly are folded, white and cold, beneath the gloomy portals. The heart whose every beat mea sured an eternity of love, lies under your last.—And there is no white arm over your shoulder now; no speaking,face to look up in the eye of love; no trem bling lips to murmur—" Oh, it is too sady There is no strange hush in every room! No smile to greet you at nightfall—and the clock still ticks, and ticks! It was sweet music when she could hear it. Now it seems to knell only the hours through which you watched the shadows of death gathering upon her sweet face. But many a tale it telleth of joys past, sorrows shared, and beautiful words and deeds registered above. You feel that the grave cannot keep her. You know that she is in a hap. pier world, but feel that she is often by your side, an angel presence. Cherish these emotions, they will make you happier. Let her holy presence be as a charm to keep yon;froin evil. In all new and pleasant connections give her a place in youi heart. Never forget what she has been to you—that she has loved you. Be tender of her memory. NELEION,S HEART. —Human nature is very frail. No man ever had a stronger sense of it, under the influence of a sense of justice, than Lord Nelson. He was loth to inflict punishment; and when he was obliged, as he called it, " to endure the torture of seeing men flogged," he came out of his cabin with a hurried step, ran into the gangway, made a bow to the officers, and, reading the articles of war the culprit had infringed, said ;—"Boatswain, do your duty!" The lash was instantly applied, and consequently the sufferer exclaimed " Forgive me, Admiral—forgive me!" On such an occasion, Lord Nelson would look round with wild anxiety, and, as all his officers kept silence, he would say, "What! none of you speak for him Avast ! cast him off." And then he added to the culprit, "Jack in the (Jay of battle remember me!" He became a good fellow in future. A poor man was to be flogged—a landsman—and few pitied him. His offence was drunkenness. As he was being tied up a lovely girl, contrary to all rules, rushed through the officers, and, falling on her knees, clasped Nel son's hand, in which were the articles of war, ex claiming, "Pray forgive him, your honor, and he shall never offend again!" Your pretty Lace," said Nelson, "is a security for his good behavior. Let him go! the man cannot be bad who has such a lovely creature in his care." This man rose to be a lieutenant; his name was William P.Ve. NEWSPAPERI3.-A child beginning to read, be comes delighted with the newspaper, because he reads of namesfaral things which are very familiar, and he will make progress accordingly. A news paper in one year, (says Mr. Weeks,) is worth a quarters schooling to a child, and every father must consider that substantial information is con. nected with this advancement. The mother of a family, being one of its heads and having a more immediate charge of children, she should herself be instructed. A mind occupied becomes fortified against the ills of life, and is braced for any emer gency. Children amused by reading or study, are of course easily governed. How many thoughtless young men have spent their earnings in a tavern or grog shop, who ought to have been reading.— ;How many piirents who never spent twenty doll ars for books for their families, would gladly have given thousaqds to reclaim a son or daughter who had ignorantly and thoughtlessly fallen into temp tation. A StroATION.—Two young officers were trav elling in the far West, when they stopped to take supper at a small road-side tavern, kept by a rough young woman. The landlady in a calico sun bon net, and bare test, stood at the head of the table to pour out. She inquired of her guests "if they chose long sweeting or short sweeting in their coffee."— The first officer, supposing that " long sweeting " meant a large portion of that article, chose it ac cordingly. What was his dismay when he saw his hostess dip her finger deep into an earthern jar of honey that stood near her, and then stir it with her finger round in the coffee. His companion seeing this preferred " short sweeting." Upon which the woman picked up a large lump of maple sugar that lay in a brown paper on the floor beside her, and biting off a piece, put it into his cup. Both the gentlemen dispensed with coffee that evening. DXATHS IN FEN,' Ynnu.—The Courier and En quirer says: The deaths in this city during the past week numbered five hundred and thirty-eight, during the week previous there were four hundred and five.— Multiplying these numbers by fifty-two, the num ber of weeks in the year, and dividing the total po pulation of the city by the number thus obtained, we will discover that the ratio of mortality or the past week would destroy in onee, year about one nineteenth part of thepopulation ofthis city.' The ratio of the previous week would in the same man ner destroy about one-twenty fifth part of the city population in a year. Adding the two together and faking the mean, we discover the astounding fact that during the past fortnight the annual ratio of mortality has been in proportion of one to twen ty-two, or that the same ratio of mortality carried out for one year would destroy a number of lives equivalent to about one twenty-second part,of the entire population of this city..: And this in the ab sence of all epidemics, and in a city of a remarka ble healthy location. This degree of mortality is the more astonishing when compared with that of London, a city four times the size, and the annual mortality of which is is said to be scarcely more than half of that which is shown by these calcula3 dons.

OFFICE, No. 7, South FREDERICK Street, 'BALTIMORE, Md., on the left hand - side, going from Baltimore street, 7 doom from the corner.— Be particular is observing the name and number or you will mistake the place. DR. JOHNSTON, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, LSn. don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col leges of the United States and the greater part or whose life has been spent in the Hospitals 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 PARTICULAR NOTICE Dr. J. addressee all those who have injured themselves by private and improper indulgencies, that secret and solitary habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfitting them for either busines or society. These are some of the sad and melancholy ef fects produced by early habits of youth, : Weakness of the back and limbs; Paine in the head, Dimness of Sight, Lose of Muscular Power, Pal. pillion of , the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are much to be dreaded: Loss of Memory, Confusion of ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo• ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c. are Some of the evils pro duce 7• NERVOUS DEBILITY Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and premature decay generally arises from the destruct 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 n Ignorance of the dangers to which they subject tnemselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis led with respect to the cause or source of disease in their sons and wards. Alas! how often do they ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame, Palpitation of the Elea Dyspepsia, Indigestion, DerangeMent of the Nervous System, Cough and Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious Mentdl 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 is both • Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex istence thousands who might have been of use to their wuntry, a pleasure to their friends, an erne men to society. WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS immediately cured and full vigor restored. Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided youths been made, who have. been suddenly resto red to health from the devastations of those terrific maladies which result from indiscretion. Such persons, before contemplating MARRIAGE, should reflect that a sound mind and body ure the most necessary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro' life becomes a weary pilgrimage; the prospect hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filed 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. He who places himself under the care of Dr OHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his skill as a Physician TO S GRANGERS. The many thousands cured at this institution within the last ten years, and the numerous im portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J., witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma ny other persons, notices of which have appeared again and again before the public, is a sufficient guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and honorable physician. N. B.—Shun the numerous pretenders who call themselves Physicians, and apply to DR. JOHN STON. Be not enticed from this office.

E HOUCI irON'S ---r • tk, . - • 1." • E PS IN't. The True Digestive Fluid or Gastric Juice PREPARED from Rennet, or the fourth Stom ach of the Ox, after directions of BARON LIEB1G: the great Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Hough! ton, M. D., Philadelphia,Pa. This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint, Constipa tion, and Debility, curing after Nature's own method, by Nature's own Agent, the Gastric Juice. Half a teaspoonful of Pepsin, infused in water, will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds of Roast Beef in about two hours, out of the stomach. PEPSIN is the chief element, or Great Digesting, Principle of the Gastric Juice—the solvent oft he food, the purifying, preserving and stimulating agent of the stomach and intestines. It is extrocied. from the digestive stomach of the Ox, thus' form ing an Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like the natural Gastric Juice in its chemical powers, and furnishing a complete and perfect substitute for it By the aid of this preparation, the pains and evils of indigestion and Dyspepsia are removed, just as they would be by a healthy stomach. It is doing wonders for dyspeptics, curing cases of Debility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and Dyspeptic Con sumption, supposed to be on die verge of the grave The scientific evidence upon which it is based, is tn the highest degree curious and _remarkable. SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE Baron Liebig in his celebrated work on Anima Chemistry, says: "An artificial Digestive Fluid, analogous to the Gastric Juice, may be readily prepared from the mucous membrane of the stom ach of the calf, in which various articles of food as meat and eggs, will be eoltened, changed, and digested, just in the same manner as they would be in the human stomach." Dr. Pereira,in his famous treatise on " Food and Diet," published by Fowler & Wells, New York, page 35, states the same great fact, and describes the method of preparation. There are few higher authorities than Dr. Pereira. Dr. Combe, in his valuable writings on the " Physiology of Digestion," observes that "a dim - inution of the due quantity of the Gastric Jinciem a prominent and all-prevailing cause of Dyspepsia,' and he states that "a distinguished professor o medicine in London, who was severely affli c t e d with this complaint, finding everything else to fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, obtained front the stomach of living animals, which proved corn pletely successfull.' Dr. Graham, author of the famous works on "Vegetable Diet," says: "It is dremarkable fact in phgsiology, that the stomachs of animals, mace rated in water, impart to the fluid the property 01 dissolving vai ious articles of food, and of effecting a kind of artificial digestion of them in nowise diffrfeent mro the natural digestive process." AS A DYSPEPSIA CURER, Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN has produced the most marvelloutteffects,in curing cities of Debility, Emaciation, Nervons Decline, and Dyspeptic Consumption. It is impossible to give the details of cases in the limits of this advertisement ; but authenticated certificates have been given of more than Two Hundred Remarkable Cures, in Phila delphia, New York and Boston alone. These were nearly alldesperate cases, and the cures were not only rapid and wonderful, but permanent. It is a great Nervous Antidote, arid particularly useful for tendency to Billious disorder, Liver Complaint,Fever ar., Ague, or badly treated Fever ana Ague, and the evil• effects of Quinine, Mer cury and other arugsopon the Digestive Orgcns, after a long sickness. Also, for excess to eating, and the too free use of ardent spirits. It almost reconciles health with intemprance. OLD STOMACH COMPLAINTS. There is no form of Old Stomach Complaints which it does not seem to reach and remove at once. No matter how bad they may be. it gives instant relief! A single dose removes all the un pleasant symptoms; and it onlyneeds to be repeated short for a time to make these good effects perma nent. Purity of Blood and Vigor of Body followat once. It is particularly excellent in cases of Nausea, Vomiting, Cramps, Soreness of the pit of the Stomach, ,distress after eating, low, cold state of the Blood Heaviness, Lowness of Spirits Des pondency, Emaciation, Weakness, tendency of Insanity, Suicide, &c. Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN is Bold by nearly all the dealers in fine drugs and Popular Medicines throughout the United States. It is prepardd in Powder and in Fluid form—and in prescription vials for the use of Physicians. PRIVATE CIRCULARS for the UBO of Physicians, may be obtained of Dr. Houghton of his Agents, describing the whole process of preparation, and giving the authorities upon which the claim o f this new remedysarebased.
