Oh: I would like to Marry.
A SONG-!Y 0. W. GOODWIN
I saw a little maiden;
Of but a teen or two,
Her cheeks were fair and rosy,
Her laughing eyes were blue;
A dainty little fairy,
Not yet a woman quite,
A modest rose bud opening,
And beaming with delight; '
Said I, sweet little lady,
Did , st ever have a beau
Pd like to kiss you dearly,
Atut it would scare you so;
~Bright flowers bloomed around her,
For it was joyous Spring, •
A thousand birds were warbling,
And she did with them sing;
Ohl I would like to marry,
If I could only find
A pretty little dearie
Just suited to mind.
saw another, older
By five sweet yearn than she;
Oh 1 she was matchless lovely !
Full bloomed maturity !
Her form was round and slender,
Her bosom snowy white,
Her hair in glossy ringlets,
Her eyes were sparkling bright,
Her dress was spotless muslin,
krranged with nicest care,
A wreath of glowing flowers
Encircled her dark hair/
Her voice was witching music,
That chained me while she talked ;
'Her feet so small and pretty,
I wonder how she walked';
Said she, Pd like to marry,
If I could only find
. A pretty little dearie
Just suited to my mind,
Ikfind that all would marry,
From.maid to matron old ;
Oh, think it not all folly,
As you are often told;
I saw an ancient maiden—
Of an uncertain age,
But she had almost fretted
Her hour on the stage ; •
Her brow was wrapt in wrinkles,
Her cheeks were plastered red,
Her teeth were few and broken,
Her hair had left her head ;
Here, then, thought I, is wisdom;
Her earthly dreams are flown ;
For one she is contented
Toelive and die alone;
Said she, I'd like to marry,
If I could only find
0, dear 1 just any body—
A man of any kind.
Till then I was cold hearted,
And jeered at married - life;
But now good-nature conquered,
I longed to have a wife;
And so the charming widow
Has now my hand and heart;
Her three dears and another
Give us a handsoMe start;
And we are very happy,
My love is true and kind ;
Oh, yes, I've found a dearie,
Just suited to my mind.
And now ye pretty maidens,
Young men and lovers true,
I'll tell you what I'm thinking
You all had better do;
I think you'd better marry,
IC you can only find
A pretty little dearie .
Just suited to your mind.

" There is surely nothing so beautiful in the grave
itself as to make it the most fitting despository for
our bodies: Build monuments and wreathe gar
lands; let the sad cypress wave above them, and
the flowered turf rest lightly on theirbosoms ; let
soft winds sigh upon their resting-place, and gen - -
tle - raine make green the field of death, and stilt
beneath are corruption and the worm."—Extraet
from an unpublished Defence of Resurrectioniving.
In looking lick upon the past, and reviewing
the scenes of an adventurous career, my memory
most calls the event of student-life. Mine has been
no flowery path. In that hard struggle begotten
within me by the conflicting elements of ambition,
recklessness, and poverty, I have been tossed about
whither I know not; and now, in the quiet rest
of this more peaceful time, I while away many
hours of loneliness, in recalling the strange chances
that have befallen me. Of all these,"none have left
so deep an impression.as the grave adventures into
which an ardent and enthusiastic pursuit of ana
tomical science beguiled me.
Sometimes the wild clangor 'of battle comes to
me on the southern breeze from the far-distant
plains of Mexico; and I hear again the bugle-call,
the roll of the drum, the sharp crack of the rifle,,the
heavy firing by platoons,, the deep booming of the
cannon ; and, more than all, that wild, infuriate
yell with which our volunteers charged upon the
enemy. Gon! what a sound was that! That cry
once given, and they were no longer men. They
were incarnate devils, and they rushed upon death
with a shout,
As all the fiends from heaven that fell,
Had pealed the banner-cry of hell rt
There is something terribly sublime in the solemn
silencein which our regulars went tb the charge.—
the quick martial step; the firm; unbroken'discip
line ; the steady fortitude; in all this; there was
that ,whidfleft me awe-struck and trembling. But
in the rush of our volunteers; the fierce impetuos
ity of their advance, when as they neared the ene
my, they broke their ranks, and hurled themselves,
upon the foe, each striving to be first, each fighting
as if it were his own personal quarrel, and the pent
up vengeance of years were , bursting.torth; more
than all, that high, piereing.cry which shrook the
sulphury clouds above them, woke in me a' fierce
feeling of madness and delight, and made me scorn
the useful occupation which had left ass a nor-cem
batant, and long to be the hinnblestpriiite in the
ranks.
Memories like these are often with me; but still
farther back among the receding shadows .of the
past, loom up those-events before mentioned, and a
deeper and more solemn chord of memory vibrates
at the• sight. Believe me, reader, there itt.no-spot
on earth where one's Courage is wound- hp to the
same painful: pitch:of intensity as in - the grave -yard
at midnight while engageil'in'the'jitliaLt - trade - of

the darkness ; - the whispered word ! of consuletion';
the fear 'of interruption; - thee white monuments

which afforded some chances for concetilinent.: Ac:

of na left the Wagon, 'takini. the
uabbject" with'us, while H— drove more sroWly
around the corner.' Before I knew how it happen
ed., or by what process of discovery we had hit
upon so:lucky a hiding-place, we had mounted on
e ,sigh stump, and with some effort I had succeeded
in dropping the "dead-headu into the cavity of an
4oiningatisb, which had been broken off at about
twelve feet from the.ground.
But we were late about it. Our pursuers were
alieady in the field. I was perched upon the top
of,the stub, and so near were they, that to spring
to the grannd would betray our "cattle," and most
probably lead to my capture. The boys were ma
king for the wagon at a very prai•eworthy rate of
speed. So I gently lowered myself down into the
cavity where we had just " buried our dead," hang
ing on to the top with my hands, to avoid too low
a descent. In a moment our fol lowers were about
me. They had noticed our pause at this spot, and
supposing that we bad abandoned the subject, com
menced a careful search for it. Of course I main
tained a strict reserve as to my whereabouts. An
unlucky cough or sneeze would betray me ; and in
that case I was elected for an "imprisonment 01 not
less than two, or more than five years; all of which
I thought of during their tedious stay. At last they
felt, with an agreement to return in the morning
and complete the search.
ut my troubles were not over. I had hung so
long suspended at arms' length by the hands, that
on attempting to swing up again to the top of the
stub, I found it was no go; and after several at
tempts, my cramped hands gave way, and down I
went upon the head and shoulders of my departed
friend and fellow-prisoner. The position was die.
agreeable, but I was ever a lucky fellow; and felt
no wise discouraged until, after resting a while, I
tried to clamber up my long chimney of a grave,
and found the sides so smooth and slippery with
damp as to serve an effectual '-fle eirat" upon me.
Verily, thought I, " the way of the transgressor is
hard.'
I consoled myself for a while with the hope of a
speedy return of my party, but hour after hour pas
sed on, and they did not come. Day broke and as
the sun rose in the heavens, the light crept down
into my prison and illuminated the ghastly coun
tenance of my fellow-captive. His eyes were half
opened; and at last my nerves growing weak Non
hunger and long position, I fancied that I saw his
upturned face a strange and cunning leer; a trium
phant expression, as if he were chuckling over the
horrible scrape into which my attempt to disturb
his rest had brought ane. I shifted my position so
that I Could only see the back of his head and his
bare shoulders, but the rascal had a kind of French
shr'ug in the latter, which still left the same impres
sion on my excited fancy.
It grew cloudy and cold, and sleet and rain be
gan to fall. My enemies of the night before return
ed, and completed their unsuccessful search. I felt
a strange temptation to cry out and reveal my hi
ding-place; and had they come later in the day, I
believe I should have done so. Noon came. Hith
erto my position had become one of great discom
fort, but not of actual suffering; but as the day
wore on, (and oh, how slowly!) I began to feel the
effects of fatigue, hunger, wet and cold. I grew ter
ribly nervous 1 I wept, and prayed, and cursed by
turns. My companion too—how I grew to hate
him, and at last to look upon him as a sentient and
intelligent demon, who, by some horrible diablerie,
had drawn me into a living grave with him—and
then I thought how, when the old tree should have
crnmbled down with time, two skeletons would be
found there, and only one suit of clothes; and how
people would wonder; what they would say about
me, should the truth become known ; and whether
they would pity me or not. Perhaps they would
burn the field over, and we both should be burned
up, " burned up with fire ;" and I repeated it over
again, "burned up with fire." Then I thought how
cold and hungry I was, and what my mother would
say, could she know my situation ; and I grew
childish, and wept with the same passionate grief
as when a child. Toward the close of the day I
had fretted myself into a quarrel with the dead man
and, curling down within reach, I struck him with
my fist, and stamped upon him.
When night came, I was glad. 1 was so cold
and benumbed that I felt no longer the gnawings
of hunger, and from sheer exhaustion my nerves
had grown quiet. For the first time I wished to
sleep. I fixed myself as easily as possible, and re
peating the old nursery lines,
46 Now I lay me down to sleep,"
I dropped off into a quiet slumber. I had slept sev
eral hours when I woke suddenly, at the sound of
afoot-fall. In a moment the whole truth flashed
upon me. The boys had returned . in search of me,
and, without waiting to ascertain the facts, I called
out, "Here lam ! Here I am! Come and pull me
out!" A moment more; and aftera word of expla
nation, a strong arm grasped me, and 1 was drawn
out to the living world again.
Few words were spoken then, but half an hour
later, seated once more in the wagon beside old H.,
well wrapped - up in a buffalo robe, my pleasant
companion* of that long, weary day beneath our
feet, my hunger satisfied by sundry dough-nuts and
cold sausages; and my nerves ret right by a a pull
at the brandy bottle, so long and nninterrupted that
Seb inquired'if I had ever been a pearl diver, I lis
tened to their explanations of the impossibility of
any earlier relief to me, and of the anxiety they had
suffered during the day, least I had been captured.
• I slept soundly that night, but for many.nights
thereafter, horrid dreams of ghouls and vampires,
of going down ann down through- Simms' Hole
with_' dead man's arms locked around my neck,
haunted my pillow, and destroyed my rest.
• Reader, do you wonder that an adventure like
,this should be graven with a deeper pencil upon
my memory than any or all of-the Scenes of battle,
tempest, and wreck I have since eneotintered ?
From the Soiekerbaker.
A pretty village on the coast of. Scotland, fre
quented by summer visiters, was lately the scene
of rather an amusing incident: Taking advantage
of a lovely summer day, two young ladies betook
themselves to a 'sheltered spot a little , way up the
coast, where they hoped to indulge in an unmoleat
ed bathe. After , the usual preliminary proceedings,
they had jest accomplished the first few dips, when,
- to their consternation and disgust, they observed
a young gentleman of an inquiring turn of mind
'seated on a neighboring rock and intensely enjoy
ing the scene. The impertinence was aggravated
by the fact that s powerful opera-glass was made
the instrument of a more minute inspection of their
aquatic evolutions. The blushing . but indignant
maidens remarried in the water , as long - as was con
sistent with comfort and security, in:the hope that
the'stranger would withdraw and leave them to, at

The Very Amiable Man.
We would almost as soon hear a man called
pretty as amiable—and, of all things we hate id this
world, it is one of those barber's bust men, which
silly girls declare so pretty.
‘The amiable man" is one of those non-commit
tal, milk and water, eharacterleis beings, who is
never out of temper. He smiles at .anything, and
bears the greatest troubles with.an unruffled brow.
We think it may be set down as a fixed rule, that
the man who is never out of temper, but always
wearing a smile upnn his face, is either a knave or
a fool. The woman who never shown the lovely
sentiment of a blush, is not to be trusted over much;
and the man who cannot be roused to an honest in
dignation, never need be tried as a friend, for he
will smile, and smile, and be a villain.
The man gifted with that finely organized nerv
ous system, which always accompanies genius, can
no more be what it is called an amiable man, than
a London alderman can be indifferent to good feed
ing.
The amiable boy of a family is a mistake in na
ture—he is designed for petticoats; but these anom
alies will occur, and they are not easily accounted
for either. We are oy no means advocating a con
tinued statute of petulance and anger for that is just
as disagreeable the other way. With such people,
it is pretty much the same as the servant told his
master, when he gave him warning that he would
not remain in his service on account of his temper.
"My temper," said his master; "It's true I am quick,
but I am no sooner in a passion than I am out of
it;" remarked John, "than you are in it again."
Your "amiable man" is a capital fellow for a
meanly conducted boarding house. He never grum
bles at anything, and will even go so far as to eat
bread pudding, although he entertains the convic
tion that some of the crusts he sees in it were ac
quaintances of a week's standing. He generally
gets the worst served of anybody in the house, all
on account of his amiability—which, by the bye,
always involves a want or proper self respect.--.
Heaven preserve us from amiable men !—N. 0.

Bots In Horses.
I have stood by and seen a horse dje (as was
supposed from bots,) after being skit 24 hours, and
as soon as it was thought he- had lost his feeling
of sensibility, his brisket was slushed open, and in
an instant almost I was into the den of hisdestroy
ers. Now, Mr. Randolph will be ready to conclude
that we found them all asleep, or at least employ.
ing their time very , innocently. But not so, they
were gnawing away with hearty good will, and
from the damage done, the only matter of surprise
Was that the horse had lived so long. They had
commenced on the stomach immediatley at the
swallow, and had eaten off the cuticle or inner
coats, entirely around the stomach and to the width
of sor 6 inches. It was surprising to see with
what regularity they had carried on their work of
destruction. Dozens and dozens of them were ar
ranged in a regular row, almost as.: thick as they
could stick, and no one seemed to have progress in
advance of the others, nor were there any detached
places attacked, nor was there any particle of the
cuticle, or inner coat of the stomach lett behind
them. They swept it clean all around as far as they
had progressed, and to a considerable depth, though
in no place was the:stomach eafen.tutirely.through.
It was as raw air a piece of beef and the horse died
inflammation froin it. Mr. Randolph is right as to
the origin of bots. All horses have hots, and it
may be asked wby hoses are not killed-by them.
The reasons are numerous. Bata feed upon the
juices of the stomach; While these are abundant,
and of a kind suited to thein, the horse is sate.—
But when there is a detielency . he is alwayti in dan
ger. Bence it is that while running in a luzuri
ent pasture he Is scarcely ever attacked ; but when
at-hard work or traveling, and led upon flyy food
all the time, and occasionally with an empty stom
ach, is the time when - he is the greatest danger.
That hots kill horses, is as certain as horses have
hair on their sides.-.. Southern Cuitivator.

ple commenced their married life, in the neat cot
tage, the fruit of the wife's iudastry and the work
of her own hands. All this occurred about the
year 1835. Time has advanced, and she is now
the happy mother of THIRTEEN children, (the
youngest five months old) and he the happy and
prosperous husband of a most industrious and esti.
mable lady. What is it woman cannotiaccornplith
when with earnestness she undertakes the task ?
HUNGARIAN AsricnoTE.—During an engagement
between a Hungarian and Austrian troop of light
infantry, a Honved stabbed an Austrian officer with
a bayonet and mortally wounded him. Natural
generosity prompted the Hungarian Honved to ex
tend his aid to the dying foe. The officer said to
him with great exertion:
"I see you are a brave and good natured fellow;
I will ask a favor of you. In my pocket book you
will find a package of documents, without which
my family will be ruined—reduced to beggary.--'
Promise to send this package safely to my family
in Prague, in Bohemia.
"I will carry it to them myself," answered the
Honved.
' , Swear it to me," said the Austrian.
. "Sir, .I am a Hungarian; 1 gave you my word,"
responded the Honved.
In a few minutes afterwards the wounded man
died in the arms of his generous foe, who, after cov
ering the body with his own mantle, and putting
the sword in his hands, crossing them, took the pa
pers; and joined his troop. •
The conflict ended, and the Honved repaired to
his captain, and requested a furlough, which was
denied. This did not discourage our hero; he went
to see the colonel of his regiment, but met with the
same result. Finally, he went to the commanding
general, Klapka, but even he did not grant his re
quest. In the night following he lett the camp,
and in the course of a few days he travelled four
hundred miles, and placed the paperi safely into the
hands of the deeply afflicted widow of the deceased
Austrian, residing at Prague.
Soon after, our hero, the Honved, rejoined his
corps and reported himself to the captain, who had
him arrested as a deserter: A future court martial
condemned him to be shot. The soldier calmly re
signed himself to his fate, which came to him not
unexpectedly. .He prepared himself for death and
when the fatal muskets were aimed at . his breast,
he exclaimed—
"I pledged my honor and my word, and I was
bound to keep them. Elgeu a haza!"_(Hurrah
for my native land)—and sank dead, pierced .by
musket balls. '
Gairas Vans.—Somebody, a great many years
ago, said that the bitterest of earthly affliction was—
" To love, and not be loved again."
Next to it, certainly, is the affliction, pain and
annoyance of meeting on the sidewalk a pretty fe
male figure with its head tightly wrapped up, and
d
envelope - in an impenetrable green veil, which
green veil a'foresaid boWs to you in a woefully be
witching manner; and leaves you standing bare
helided•on,the walk in a fever of wonder, curiosity
and wrath.
We - are about petitioning for a law, making it a
capitalmeaning thereby a kissable—offence, for
any female under the age of thirty-five, whose face
is'not scarred with small pox, nor otherwise dis
torted, and who was not born with features like
Medusa, to be found wearing a green veil, at any
time, or under any pretext, on the sidewalk. Tne
story: of Mokanna shall be copied from Tom
.Moore's "Veiled Prophet of Khorassan," and aft
ed to the fifth section of the bill; and thereby- we
trust to do something for the good and comfort of
the masculine community.
A pretty . woman is like a great truth or a great
happiness, and has no more right to bundle herself
up under a green veil, or any other similar abomi
nation, than the sun has to put on spectacles. We
like masks, and are fond - of masquerades, but regu
late our - fondness by Solomon's injunction that
there is a season for alt things. These perambula
tory female riddles we do not like—at least, until
we know-who they are. Then we are as willing
as any one to acknowledge that
" A thing of beauty is a joy forever!"
EXPLORATIONS OF THE CENTRAL ROUTE TO THB
Pm:lnc.—We have received intelligence of the ar
rival of Colonel Fremont at Washington city, from
England, where he has-been incarcerated, on ac
count of the debts contracted by him, in order to
equip the men with whom he made the conquest
of California. Our informant assures us that Col.
Fremont has prepared himself with the finest in
struments for the purpose of prosecuting the sur
vey of thi.Central Route, for a Railroad to the Pa
cific. Re proposes to start in November, and thus
test the practicability of the route during the sea
son , of moos. This intelligence will be hailed with
pleasure by she people of Missouri, and the under
taking by Col. Frsmont,of this survey, during the
fall and winter snows, shows the confidence he leels
in the practicability of the Central Route; and this
confidence shown by one, so well acquainted with
the whole country as Col. Fremont, cannot fail to
inspire a similar confidence in the friends of the
Central-Route: We understand that Col. Fremont

to the gratitude of the whole country.—St: Louis

you will mistake the place.
DR. JOHNSTON,
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 Hospitals of Lon
don, Paris, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has affect
ed some of the most astonishing ' cares 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. addresses 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 bushy:is
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy el
fects produced by early habits of 2youth, viz
Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal
pitation of The Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &e
Mentally.—The tearful 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
duced.
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
themselves. Parente and Guardiacs 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 Heat, Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, 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 In
both Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their , thuntry, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
men, to society.
WEAKNESS OF TIIE ORGANS
itnmediately 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 are 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 filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with our own. Let afalse
delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately.
He who places himself under the care of Dr'
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as , a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
skill as a Physician-
TO STRANGERS.
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.
