re At every swing of the pendclam, a spirit goes into
into eternity. The measure of our life is a -hand's
breadth i it is a tale that Is told ; its rapidity Is like the
swift shuttle or the. flying arrow; It is as brief as the
fading flower or the transitory rainbow, or the dazzling
meteor i it la a bubble, it is a breath. Between the Xi

and day, at all seasons, in all climes. Death is a ftin

of violated laws.of organic life. Disease is the effect of
n derangement of physical laws, and can only be cured
by remedial means that counteract their influence. If
Molina becomes the source of disease, we would not
attempt to neutralize the ctmosphere, but our first cu

public and the afflicted.
Philadelphia, June 9th, 1847.
Raving been apprissii of the - nature of the Panacea, it
affords me much pleasure to be able to recommend it 1113
a valuable remedy for' those Chronic, Constitutional,.
and Glandular diseases to which it is especially adapted.
To those who are afflicted and require medicine as an
alternative, cannot obtain it in a more agreeable, active
and uniforn state than is to be found in the Panacea.—

HAAS' EXPECTORANT,
FOR THE CORE OF ;
'Consumption, Coughs, Colds,. &o.
TO THE PUBLIC!:
N PRESENTING ge is valuable medicine to the pub-
I
T tic as a remedy for COnsumption, and Pulmonary
Diseases in general, I have been actuated solely by the
great nieces• attending its use in my own immediate
neighhothood, and a desire to benefit the afflicted, I
shall simply endeavor to give a brief statement of Its
_usefulness, and flatter myself that its surprising effica
cy will enable me to furnish such proofs of its virtues
as will satisfy the most incredulous, that CONSUMP
TION may and "CAN BE CURED," ifthis medicine Is
resorted to in time. As Consumption, however is a
disease which differs much in the severity of its amp
lmslcid the rapidity of its progress, and has lung baf
fled skill of physicians it cannot be supposed that
this or any other remedy is capable of effecting ti
cure' in every case and in every stage of the disease;
on the contrary, we must expect it to fail sometimes,
:ircumstance which occurs daily,with ill the most val
uable remedies we possess, for the meet simple &leas
es. The proprietor submits the following testimonials
in its favor from citizens of this County, well known
to the public.
Ma. Wy. J. Hsse,--Having been afflkted for the last
thirty. years with Consumption, and having had the ad
vice of some of the most eminentPhysicians.and was gi
ven up as incurable. I was induced to make trial of your
invaluable Expectorant, and am happy to say that I am
entirely cured, and am at tending to my daily occupation
as though I hid never been- afflicted. Previous to La
king your EXPECTORANT, I could not, if 1 had been
so disposed, do anything at my trade. I have since ree
=mended It to several of my; friends, and particularly
one case of CONFIGNED Consusirriox. and aim . ha pay
to state that in every instance It had the desired effect.

phrase, while he, Pillow, is eternally Mvolvmg
himself in difficolties How i 4 it that . the first

How is it that Gens::Pierce and Cadwallader -;
have won the gond opinions of.all, while the'great
Gen. Pillow has made. himself as it were the 1
laughing-stock of the army I I repeat why is all
this It is because the latter has the military ge
nius, and the - impudence to trumpet his own] ex
ploits ; it is because he have grasping ambition,
and a dbh:inest one—an ambition which diligent
ly seeketh to build a reputation fur_ himself even
at the expense of others; it is because he htis had
the effrontery, time and again, to pester not , only
his officers but editors with stories.of his prowess.
and with bold requests that they might asa in
spreading his deeds before the world ;in sh ot, it
is bec*e he has atestless and feverish desires and
cravineafier all the honors of a . campaign which
has shed such lustre upon our arms, with the in-
sufferable weakness to believe that he is deserving
of them.

must.acknowledge that for one I thought' that
the man was'used a little h for his Conduct
in the Urn° Gordo buiiness, but his antics there •
in the army.have done away with 'all favouratle
and mitigating impressions,. I will now clo i se by
repeating that you will see letters in some of out

astonish all.
ar The Female Dress of Me Present Day.
—We are inclined to think that the female attire
of the present day is, mien the whole, in as favor
able a state as the most vehement :, advocates for,
what is called nature and simplicity coulddesire.
It is a costume in which they can dress -quickly.
walk nimbly. eat plentifully. stoop easily . , 101 l
gracefully, and in. short perform all the duties of
life without let or hindrance. The head is left
to its natural size, the skin to its native purity,
the waist at its proper region. the heels at then real
level. ' The dress is milculated to bring out the
natural beauties of the person. and each of them
has; as far as we, see, fair play. Flounces are a
nice question, we like them when they wav and
flow, as in a very light material—muslin or ease
- Or bersgt—when a lady has no outline., and, no
mass, bin looks like a receding angel or dissolving
view ; but we do not like them in a 'rich material.
when, they flop, or in,m - stiff one, where they bris
tle; and where they' break the flowing lines °lithe
petticoat; and throw light and eiade where you
do not expect them. In short we like the gown
that can do without flounces, as Josephine liked a'
face that could do without whiskers, but, in either
case, it must be a good one.—Quarterly Retlete:
