A Quaker Jumping a Ditch.
Hezekiah Broadbrim was a tat Qua
ker in the State of New Jersey, who sold
Molasses, cod-fish, China, earthenware,,,
cloths, and all sorts' of liquors. We like'
the Quakers, in deed, as well as in name
but Huzekiali was a Hickory . Quaker.
lie was somewhat of an old bachelor—
and had a sister who was somewhat of
an old maid. But she was the beSt crew
dire alive ; straight as a candle, bloom'.
lug as a rose, and smiling as charity.
Her name was Dorcas.
Hezekiah and Dorcas walked out one
Sunday afternoon, in the blooming month
of May, to breathe the fresh air, and
view the Meadows. The walking was
smooth and delightful, with no manner
orobstructions, except: here andthere - a
ditch full of water, spanned by a few
bridges, and too wide for any man of or
dinary jumping capacity to cross at a
single bound. But Hezekiah valued
himself; as fat people commonly do, on
his agility—and instead of walking a Few
additional rods for the sake of a bridge,
must needs leap every ditch.he came to.
" Thee- 7 71 better not try that Hezeki
alt,',\' said his kind and considetate sis
ter.
" Never thee mind, Dorcas," returned
llezekiah—there's no danger, I've jump
ed many a bigger ditch. when I wasn't
half my present size."
" Alt that's very likely. But recollect
thee's grown exceedingly pussy since
thee was a young man."
ssv ! Well if I have that's no
eaaon why I should not be as agile as
before, I tell thee Dorcas I can jump this
ditch without so much as touching a fin-
ger."
Aye, but the'll touch thy feet to the
lbottom." .
l'hee's but a woman, Dorcas, and
ihya fears magnify this ditch even to'a
river. Now stand thee aside, that I may
'have a full sweep according to my abili
ties."
" Nay, brother Ilezekiah, thee'd bet
ter not. The ditch is wide. and the bot
tom muddy and thee'll assuredly spoil
thy Sunday clothes, if no worse."
"A, fudge for:thy fears, girl ; thee shall
not stay me a jot.. Nay do not hold me ;
for I'm resolved to jump this ditch, if it
were merely to convince thee of my
ty.
Accordingly Ilezekiah went back a
feW yards, in order that he might have a
fair run, and that the impulse thereof
►night carry him over. Having retreat
ed far enough, he came forward With a
tnomentuto proportioned to his weight
and velocity—and found himself in the
ditch. The water splashed around on
all sides, and bespattered the Sunday
clothes of Dorcas, who could not, with
all her Quaker sobriety and kind feelina,
help bursting into a loud laugh. There
was Hezekiah showing his agility, and
floundering jn the mod like a whale.
The water was not so 'deep as to be dan
gerbus—and the scene was' too irresis
tibly comic for even a saint to abstain
from laughing, though , on the Lord's
day.
Atiength when her risibility' would
allow her the power of speech, Dorcas
kindly held out her hand and said—
., Come hither Hezekiah, and I'll help
thee out."
" War well 1" returned the floun
dered in a tone of vexation —" Thee
does well Dorms, to stand there and
laugh at me—as though it were mere
sport, to stick in the mud and water up to
my very middle."
" Nay, nay, Hezekialt, thee has shown
thy agility so marvelously, that I could
not help being pleased for the life of me
—and I now take shame to myself for
having opposed thee so strenuously, or
for having a single moment doubted thy
capacity for jumping. But if thee's sat
isfied with thy exploit, and is ready to
come forth, I'll lend thee a hand to help
thee ouk."
Thus saying, Dorcas drew deaf to the
edge of the ditch—but Heztkiah hav
ing got himself in by his own unaided
power—declared he would get himself
out in the same way.• But the mud was
deep and adhesive, and as he got one
foot out, he got the other in—and thus
he continued to labor and plunge, till he
was full satisfied hisown ability_ was bet
ter calculated to keep him in, than to
help him out of the ditch. He grew
wroth and used hard words—and so far
forgot the plain language that he exclaim-
•"Don't thee swear, brother ifezeki
ah," interrupted Dorcas.
" Swear!" roared Hezekiah." thee'd
swear too if thee was in here."
Swear not at all, Hezekiah, but
even lend me thy hand, and I'll use my
ability to pull thee out, according to the
Scripture which saith, “If thine ox or
thine ass shall fall into a ditch on the
Sabbath day--"
Now sister thee is too bad. Verily
thee would not make me so heavy as the
former animal; nor so stupid as the lat
ter."
4 , As to thy weight, returned Dorcas,
thee must be pretty well satisfied by this
time'—as for thy'stupidity, it was indeed
unsisterly to liken thee to the long eared
animal. But if thee is satisfied on those
points, and will forthwith reach me thine
hand, I'll do as much as in me lieth to
bring thee safe to land."
Hezeltiah Was pretty well convinced
by this time that his own ability wou ld
never fetch him out, wherefore, humbly
reaching his haddTo - Dorcas, he saitt—
" Verily, sister, I will accept thy aid in
as much as my own ability doth greatly
deceive me." •
Dorcas kindly lent him assistance; nd
by pulling vigorously, Hezekiah at
length came to land. Shaking off the
mud and water like a spaniel, be teturn
ed home; but charged his sister, by the
way, never to mention how he came to
his catastrophe. Dorcas promised, of
course; and as she was a girl of truth
and kind feelings, she was as good as her
word. But once or twice, when they
were in company with sundry other Qua
kers, discoursing soberly about matters
and things. Dorcas looked archly at an
other girl, and merely said, " Did I ever
tell thee, Rachel, how brother Hezekiah
one Sunday—"
Hezekiah turned an embarrassed and
imploring look towards her, and she said,
" Nay nay. Hezekiah, I'm not going to
tell—merely to ask if ever 1 told how
thee showed thy agility one Sunday
arld jumped into the middle of a ditch."
Roma Labor.
In the history of the world there is no
thing more startlingly melancholy, and
to a sober mind, more incomprehensible,
than the degradation which has . accom
panied labor. The man who has taken
up the chain of God's creation where he
left it, and sought to make the artificial a
continuation of the natural world, has
ever been despised. The greatest nation
of antiquity, Rome, pronouncfd labor in
famous. The highest philosopher of the
most refined of the Grecian States, Soc.
rates, considered the study of philosophy
and the practice of mechanical labor in
consistent. Work and slavery—not
constructive slavery but actual slavery,
with its chains and crucifixions, went to
gether. The mechanic was bought sold,
and murdered, at his master's pleasure.
The annals of Rome tell of the degrada
tion and punishment of a Senator for dis
honoring the dignity of the order by
holding an interest in a manufacturing es
tablishment„so absolute:and damning was
the perversson of opinion regarding that
labor by which man is enabled to live.
But now after a long night of .sufkriniir
and shame, labor has the dawn of its day.
It begins to act and live with dignity and
profit. It displays its symbolic de dans
and actual means with honor and pride.
A triumph of production, as glorious as
the old one of destruction is infamous, is
now seen approved and applauded.
Those arts which temper heat and cold,
which shelter and protect •society, and
render liberty practical, are illustrated in
a long, curious, moving array, to the ad
miring eyes of great communities, The
tribute of beauty is given to hint who
wields his gallant arm to create, not to
destroy. This single truth established,
that labor is honorable, and the basis of
sound ethical and political science is al
ready secured.
Force of Imagination
A Lucchese peasant shooting spar
rows, saw his dog attacked by a strange
and ferocious mastiff. He tried to
separate the animals, and received a bite
from his own dog which immediately
ran off through the fields. The wound'
was healed in a few days, but the dog
was not to be found ; and the peasant
after some time began to (eel symptoms
of nervous agitation. He conceived
that the dog, from his disappearing, was
mad and he began to feel symptoms of
hydrophobia. They grew hourly more
violent; he had all the evidences of a
most violent distemper. As he was
laying, with the door opon.. to let in
the last air that •he was to breathe he
heard his dog bark. The animal run
up to the bedside, licked his hand, and
frolicked about the room: It was clear
that he at least was in perfect health.—
The peasant's mind was relieved at the
instant: he got up with renewed strength
and dressed himself, plunged his head
into a basin of water and thus refreshed
walked into the room to his astonished
family. The statement is made in a
memoir by Professor Barbantiti ; it is
not improbable that many attacks of a
disease so strongly dependent on the
imagination might be curred by ascer
taming the state of the animal by which
the bite was given.
" APPEARANCES ARE DECEITFUL.
Under this caption somebody discourses
thus; It is no sign because a man eats
bull-frogs, that he can jump a ten rail
fence, nor because he dines on snails oc
casionally, that he should travel slow."
ADVANCE OF INTELLIGENCE:-.SUCII
the progress of knowledge, that even the
fish on the banks of Newfoundland won't
bite the hooks as they used to did.
That's the point they say while
taking the bait and avoiding the barb.
Tux PARENT who punishes his chil
dren for doing evil, while he sets them a
bad example, is like the,rider who con
tinually spurs his horse forward, while
he holds him back by the reins.

IMPORTANT INFO,"►)IATION.
IF is a prevailing opinion among the enlight
ed Physicians of our country, that Cancer
is a mass of hying animalcule, which have ta
ken up their abode in the human system. No
matter how small, or how low in the scale of
animated nature, the individual composing
Cancer may be, they were so tenacious of ex
istence, that the knife or the most powerful
caustic, are the only means by which they can
be removed,
When permitted to remain, they never fail
to multiply and spread to neighboring parts,
committing the most frightful depredations. un
til death comes to the relief of their victim.---
Worms in children, may be considered some
what analogous. If they are less fatal, they
are infinitely more common ; and if suffered to
remain, produce consequences scarcely less
alarming. If the testimony of medical writers
is to be relied upon, they often produce mania,
apoplexy, epilepsy, palsy,convulsiona and many
other diseases equally dangerous, and often fa
tat. But here the parallel stops, Cancer oeing
one of the most obdurate diseases, with which
physicians have to contend, while worms are
easily dislodged by proper remedies.

has proved one of the most valuable medicines
ever offered to the public for destroying worms
in children. 'Hundreds of cases might be enu

THE POCAHONTAS PILL.
Ix the present age, when •" Patent Medi
cines" are so numerous, and their properties so
unblushingly eulogized by their respective pro
prietors, it becomes necessary for the public (to
guard against imposition) to require some au
thentic evidence of their sanative properties.
The Pocahontas Pill is not offered as an an
tidote for all the diseases to which flesh is heir.
We merely purpose to show, by the successive
publication of certificates, voluntarily offered;
that Mail present popularity is well founded ;
and, that as a purgative medicine, they have
proved pre-eminently beneficial. These Pills
are compounded according to the rules of medi
cal science, are entirely vegetable, and may be
safely given to cleanse the stomach, purify the
blood, remove inflammation, and correct the
morbid Secretions, without regard to age, sex or
condition.
Certificate of Mr. Wm. Folimer, of Turbet,
Northumberland county, Pa., says—" For some
years past, I have been suffering from a severe
and alarming disease of the liver. Several phy
sicians had prescribed for me. and I had taken
many articles highly recommended in the papers,
without any benefit. About twelve months
ago, I began using the Pocahontas Pills, and am
happy to`say, that in a few weeks. I found my
disease entirely removed; since which I have
been free front : cough and pain in' the side, and
