Breezes stirred now and then, as if in search of something lost in the stately trees, but rPturned to their covert too lazy to make an effort to find it. And just be yond our pleasant home, the blue, bright, glorious sea was heaving and swelling with a gentle motion,ms if it asked us to glide swiftly over its waters, in the bonny boat that bore toy own name upon the stern,the 'flag tipped mast, and the fairy oars. The tide was slowly going out, and the waves surged up against the sea wall with alow music no other voice could make, while from the vessel anchored far out in the harbor, the cheery voices or merry songs of the sailors, floated over to mingle with its murmuring tones. Was it the sky of dazzling blue, flecked here and there" with a white fleecy cloud `like the wing of a snow bird,—was it the chequered light and shade of the stony seat beneath the cherry tree, with the subdued radiance it cast upon our faces—was it the wondrous beauty of the ocean before us, or the half heard music of our own young hearts that still us us into that state of di vinely calm rapture? I know not then, I know not now, what thoughts were woring in the hearts'of my companions, though I fancied 'I detected a faint shadow of sadness in the beautiful eyes of Louise, but my own heart and soul were the recipients of as pleasure seldom understood or felt—at my lips was a gold en draught, and I quaffed it greedily, tho' silently Howividly that scene comes before me now ! The little seat—the honeysuckles and the violets that grew in rich profusion around it—the three girls in their young fresh beauty,—Louise, graceful and fasci nating, with her fair English face, brown hair, and soft poetic eyes of the deepest and clearest grey;—Helen, softly featured blue eyed and fair haired, with winning childish ways, and a sweet, clinging depen dence; that won so many hearts Diary, fair as her sister, but more stately, more dignified, more self-reliant,—and I, at the feet of the trio, gazing first up in their fa ces, and then out on the bounding sea,— a rapt and happy dreamer ! The deep mourning of the orphan sisters and the soft bright hues of the'lawn dress es ,Louise and I both wear, form a pleasing contrast, which is heightened by the dusk green of the branches behind us, and the cold grey of the granite seat, and on the left, half hidden by the peach and poplar trees that shade its rustic portico, the small brown cottage stands, with its canopy of green vines and purple bunches of grapes, its blush roses, and morning glories, and honeysuckles,—and sweetest and saddest of all, its little grave beneath the parlor window, where, beneath a sod heavy with violets and. daisies, rests the dearest dumb pet this heart has ever hown—my little dog Jip ! All this=the dun shadows and the beaming light—the, happy girlish faces and the graceful forms—the turf which has been wet with so many bitter tears,and the home I have left behind me forver, form a picture which I can never, never forget! We were not quite unknown or uncared forlmt of the circle of our friendship.— Three of us already wielded the pen—Louise was quite well and favorably known to the reading public. Helen was following fast in her footsteps, and even I, had received some encouragement from those who had perused my productions, and sundry favors from young and ardent followers of litera ture, who "rejoiced to worship the new-ris en star," and do several other things which my young heart deemed vastly fine. Prospective laurels rested on three heads of the four—only the stately Mary was spared the pains as well as the joy of our responsible situation. In fancy, I, at least, saw myself conquer ing all.hearts by my written eloquence— saw myself a second Corinne,--crowned, triumphant and beloved. A thing which many of my profession have dreamed, or ought to dream. Peace to them! May they wake ill a better humor. than I have done! I looked at Mary, as she met thy fre quent glances with a benignant sirde.-- Helen stole softly into the cottage, begging the use of my writing desk, and all its et ceteras, which was freely granted. We smiled quietly on each other as she de parted, knowing well that she was about to pen, a letter to her lover, from my cottage. But the smile of Louise was touched with score}, she had long since been initiated in to the mystery of the one grand passion, and could afford to look 'down upon the trembling happiness of the novice. She settled herself composedly for° a study of Vi favorite authors,—Tennyson and Smit while I, leaning upon my queenly l'Ary's arm, took up my portfolio, and led the way to the spot more sacred to me than any other in the grounds—my lit tle dog's. grave. Then we seated ourselves on the fresh green grass, while I read to her the leaves yet fresh from the pen,— leaves on which no other eye had looked, and which, in my untutored imagination, sparkled with the richest gems of fancy. Mary was a golden girl. Quietpand un pretending herself, save in the one matter of that queenly air, which she had inheri ted from her lady mother, and which was a part of herself, (though I am persuaded, in her humility, she would have gladly dis pensed with it,) she delighted to lose her own identity in that of another,—weep where they wept, and rejoice where they rejoiced. I had chosen her from all the rest to hear my crude rhymes, beoause, wielding no rival pen herself, she would only praise or blame, as the faults or mer its of the article required; certainly I could never have found a better listener. .r hmlle, laughter qpre. ding hoti< glad o't ed ones She laughed heartily at the humorous sketches I had penned, and which I first read, (between you and I, dear reader, I fear I 'should not have done the same in her case, without exertion,)—she gave all due praise to my poems, irregular in metre, rhyme and versification as they were, and seemingly—nay, truly, (for Mary was no hypocrite,) looked upon me as a prodigy in the intellectual world, ISSIMEII .t Ilgtills r tales re- One May easily imagine this was delight ful food for my vanity; and it was long ere we arose from our grassy seats. Helen's letter had been finished, Louise's books were thrown aside, and the two sat rock ing in my little boat, and casting impatient glarices round the house for ue to come and row them out on the harbor. But one sketch still remained,—the gem of all, and one, which, from her recent be reavement, I fancied would touch my gen tle friend's heart still more deeply. In the gathering twilight I read it, in a voice bro ken with emotion,—then paused and lis tened for her grateful applause.:. Not a word was spoken to break the death-like silence gathering around us. I looked up. What tears'?Such tears'?— Had I this power Yes; tears, a, trembling voice; a fair face hidden upon my bosom— the long hair streaming over my shoulder for a moment; theil the face uplifted with a glorious smile, full of hope, and love, and faith, shining through her sorrow rainbow like ! T,hat was the happiest moment of my life'. The next week saw the self-same sketch within the columns of the Olive Branch; but not even then did such a thrill of tender, grateful emotion fill my heart. 'The picture fades slowly. A mist, rising from the sea, hides the cottage and the little grave from my sight; the faces of those three fair girls grow pale and uncer tain. Then I know that Louise still treads the path of fame, yet casts, no friendly glance on me; that Helen is a happy and an honored wife; and that Mary beams the guardian angel of her lonely father's home, —and that they all are lost to me forever; then I feel that in all my lonely wander ings, the image of what has bee'n and never more may be, will rise up before me, beam ing in the light of that proud and loving smile ! God bless thee, Mary ! That honk , . those friends, are mine no mot, My life is deeary! I turn me towards a fbreigu shore, Alone and weary! And never, to assuage my pain. Thine eyes can meet my own again! Yet; for the love whirh ha., been mine. And cannot vary. And for thy sympathy divine. I Ness thee Mary! And even as thou hast smiled on me. So may our rather smile on thee! —Bost. Wire Branch Our Country and its Fors. TUNE, OLD DAN TCCKER. BY ISAAC WALKER. . Our Country it is great and free. And so may it forever be.

"A HARD ROAD TO TRAVEL."—It seems to be generally admitted that "Jor dan is a hard road." Jim Sherwood tells of one that, if not the veritable "Jordan" itself, must certainly be its next best friend. But let Sher. speak for himself. Time, towards evening—Place, Forks of the Road, somewhere in North Carolina —Log cabin close by—Red-headed boy sitting on the fence whistling "Jordan." Enter traveler on an old grey mare, both looking pretty well beat "out." Traveler—" Say, boy, which of these roads go to Milton? Stuttering Boy—" B-b-both on 'em goes to thar." Traveler--" Well, which is the quickest way I" Boy—B-b-both alike; b-b-both on 'em gits there 'b -b-bout the same time o'day." Traveler—" How far is it?" Boy—" 'B-b-bout four m-m-miles." "Traveler—" Which is the best road '1" Boy—“ T-t-they ain't nary one the b-b-best. If you take the right hand, and g-g-go on about a m-m-mile, you'll wish you was in h-h-h-14, and if you turn back and take.the 1-I-left hand one, you'll wish you had kept on the other r-r-roafl. " THAT. COUNTB.E IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR t i OHRANDS THla CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORN FASHION AND DISEASE The editor. of the Sdalpel, in a very in- ! teresting article, in thel August number of that excellent work, on the crippled condi tion of the lungs, in woman, makes the fol lowing sensible remarks, which we com mend to the serious attention every female: "Only look at the position of a fashion-I ably-dressed woman, sitting in her rock ing chair, embroidering; see the approxi mation of herarms, and the bent neck and I body. The chest containing the lungs has to sustain the whole weight of the head and arms; they hang upon it almost like pieces of dead flesh; the intestines are for- I ced down upon the womb, and the great blood vessels that supply the limbs are compressed. There is the beautiful spine superbly arched by the Great Artist, with its exquisitely arranged and graceftil curves, to bring the centre of gravity be tween the feet, the very line of beauty, its unmatched and unequalled elastic sub stance between each bone, to take off the shock of every step, the collar-bones to keep the arms arms apart, and to allow the lungs full play, and to show the beau ty of the breast and throat, with beautiful and grand rankles on the back to keep back the shoulders—the whole wonian— , ti dream of Eden when the world was young; and look only look at the best results of fashionable society. Great Heaven! Spirits of Guido and Raphael, do ye behold her ! Shades of Hunfer and Bell, do not your bones rattle in your. graves at . the specta cle? Such respiration with the lungs poison ed and irritated in the atmosphere of the parlor, and the rank. and stifling smell of a "magnificent" velvet carpet, filled with dust, for the simple reason that it cannot be swept away; the light of heaven shut out by blinds and curtains, will stifle three quarters of the natural demand for aia, ex ercise and food, it will cpngest the hands and eye-lids, rob the colorless blood vessels that nourish the window or pellucid cornea of the eye and give it its sparkling lustre, and the skin its fairness, make the finger nails blue, take away the capacity and muscular power to hold up the head and keep the shoulders back, constipate the bowels, by robbing them of their scoretions and the constant motion imparted by a full supply of air to their muscular 'coat, and make the whole woman a mere half vitalized machine, fit only to give the sick ly replies of mental insanity to the insult ing twaddle she expects to receive from the male fool that sits before her. This is the actual condition of almost every fashion able woman in the city, and it is brought about mainly by want of exorcise; she is unable to take it from the construction of her dress, and the slavish adherence to fashion; indeed she does not dream of its necessity; she feels the wretched lethargy that presses with leaden weight upon her soul; she knows that the glad earth is full of music of love and happines; her smother ed instincts tell her she ought, to share them, but, a monntonons conventionalism threatens her with ostracism if she allows a ray of nature to warm the generous im pulse into life. Great God! when I look upon the beautiful and fair faces of my countryivomen, as they move before me like so many automata, under the iron despotism of that bloodless and sickly thing called fashion, my sonl is sick at the spec tacle, and I am glad to escape into the for est where I can see the wild bird hymning the praises of its Creator, and listen to the unchecked murmur of the winds, and the leaping of the dancing rivulet: and when "return to the duties of life, I look from my window upon the little spot of verdure a city prison allows um, and I hear the mnrinur of the bee, and see the little hum ming-bird sipping the nectar from the hon eysuckle, my heart yet leaps with childish delight as the lovely little creature swings upon the branches; 1 return to my task, and I feel that if 1 had the eloquence and benevolence of Christ, I could spend my life in no better cause than attempting her instruction in the laws of her being, and showing her how beauty and truth love and simplicity arc inseparably connected with the sublime science of life. DEATH OF MRS. BENTON.-MrS. ELIZA BETH BENTON, wife of Thomas H. Benton, died at Washington city, on the 4th inst., in her sixtieth year. The .National lintelligencer says:— Her protracted illness of several years, which from the first was known to be with out remedy, was borne with a patience and propriety of demeanor that proves how the noble fadulties and affections may survive the wreck of the mortal frame. Deprived of utterance, of all her energies, Mrs. .Benton still preserved the bearing of one whose mind would not allow the most pros trating affliction to overthrow the fine character it had formed. No fart of it gave way under the long trial to which it was subjected. The simplicity of manners, the domestic and social virtues, the gene rous, high-toned, well-regnlated feelings, the religious faith, severe to herself, liber al to all the rest of the world, in which she waa nurtured in her father's house and among the Virginia Puritans of Rockbridge stood the test of thirty years spent amidst the fashionable life of Washington and the prejudices of its political strife,without re proach. Her exalted character bore the more trying ordeal of a malady which con quers the will and often breaks down the nobler traits of the most happily constitu ted natures. The ruling feeling in Mrs. Benton's heart, and strongest to the last, was her devotion to her husband. Of late she sat constantly by his side when at his labors at home, and indeed their liv.es may he said to have been inseparable, for she has made her home wherever his business called him. She was reconciled to part with him on his late return to Missouri, because she was too weak to accompany him, and knew that his duty required his presence at his home. When she felt the approach of the crisis which terminated her life, she led her daughter to the vacant chair in which her husband worked, and, by look and gesture, made it apparent that she re quired his recall. It was too late. She walked to the bed in the next apartment, from which she was• never able to rise again.

Ayers' Pills. , For all 7 ,_ THE PURPOSES OF A FAMI LY PHYSIC. There has long exist- `" ,e. - lls. ed a public dimmed for an effective (#0 .. , purgative pill which could be-retied w ee^ on as sure and perfectly safe in Its . „itie_.. operation. This has been prepared . to meat that demand, and an eaten- . A l - ,... . sive trial of its virtues has conclu sively ' shown with what success it accomplishes ',- accomplishes the purpose designed. It is easy to make a physical pill, but not easy to make the best of all pills— one which should have none of the objections, but all the advantages, of every other. This has been attempted here. and with what success we would respectfully submit to the public decision. ` It has been unfortunate for the pa tient hitherto thatalmost every purgative medicine is acrimonious and Irritating to the bowels. This is not.— Many of them produce so much griping pain and revulsion in the system as to more than counterbalance the good to be derived from them. These pills produce no Irritation or pain ' unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc tion or derangement in the bowels. , Being purely vegeta ble, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity; but it is better that any medicine should be takenLudi clously. Minute directions for their use in the seferal diseases to which they are applicable are given on the box. Among the complaints which have been speedily cured by them, we may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap petite, Listldsneas, Irritability, Bilious Headache, Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side and Loins; for, In truth, all these are but the consequence of diseasediactiOn In the liver. As an aperient, they afford prompt and sure relief In Costiveness, Piles, 'Colic, Dysentery, flamers, Scrofula and. Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body, 111 cers and impurity of the blood; in short, any and every case Where a purgative is required. They have also produced eolno singularly successful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Gravel, Erysipelas. Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in the Bock, Stomach and Side. They should be freely taken in tho spring of the year, to purify the blood and prepare the system for the cheep of seasons. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy notion, and restores the appetite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their stimulant action on the circulatory system, renovate the strength of the body, and restore the wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even though no serious derangement ex ists; lent, unnecessary dosing should never be carried too far, as every purgative medicine reduces the strength, when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but they suggest themselves IS the reason of every body; and It is confidently believed this pill will answer a better purpose than any thing which has hitherto been available to man kind. When their virtues are once known. the public will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a cathartic medicine. . • Prepared by JA3LES C.

Beware of Impostors and swindlers. In order to prevent a repetition of the frauds so extensively carried on during the last two years, by a set of scoundrels who travelled over the country, and represented themselves as my agents, and in many instances exhibited forged certificates of agency, I now give notice that all my agents, carry with them printed forms, author Wog them to act as my agents, legally executed and acknowledged before Alderman Henry Simp son, ofPhiladeltihia; they have also, my name and place of business on their wagons. I believe them all to be strictly honest, and fully acquainted with the business of putting up Lightning Rods, which they will do at aelow a price as they can be oh taineu at the Factory. As many schemes have been resorted to, to defraud myself and the public purchasers should be on their guard; thousands have been grossly deceived by purchasing useless articles in the shape of Lightning Rods, having pr wter, lead, copper, zinc and iron points, either, or all of which are good for nothing. My Electro Magnet Lightning rods, have been examined by many of the most scientific men in the world, who have pronounced them to be the only rode that they have ever seen, which are calculated to lave lives and property from destruction by lightning— among these are Professors Henry M'Murtrie, James M'Clintock, Walter R.
