Two turklea led a happy rife,
• That seemed a summer's day, .
And wandered through the pleasant fields
Together, bright and gay.•
From morn - 'till night the. Joyous pa&
Pursued:their quiet way, . •
• Nor ever dreamt of (Wore ill •
That aro:Add - Their hopes betray.
When dewy evening -time approached.
• Day's cares and troubles loosed,
. They bent kinerd home their noiseless way,
And snugly went to roost t
This pleasant life not long did last. •
, - With Joys and hopes so gay ;
For he who owned the noble birds
• Thought of Thanksgiving Day
And en that day resolved that be,
(As well become a sinner')
To Church would go—and after that •
have hirkey , for his dinner' -
• One evening, when the sun wazdosee,
And night's grey mantle spread;
While on the pure and quiet earth -
• The moon's cold light was shed t
The happy birds retired to rest,
As was their want to do;
. Noe er w to them seemed neer,
The f u t ure s emed bright too.
• Upon the branches of a tree, •
Where oft' they'd slept before;
The two 'retired to rest again,
And soon began to' snore
...When; suddenly, a noise wag mad. „ •
BY some *invading wight,
Anti tbrOugla the dry and withered leaves
They saw a pale blue light!
They started from their pleasant dreams,
- As yell or I would do,
If rich 11 sight should come tolls
When', we were slumbering, too.
Alas,plmr birds! they bad no time
To think when they had err'd,
Or teltlwhy in Wm midnight hour,
Theitirest was thus/disturbed:
Why brimstone, burning pale and blue, ,
Upon! a slender stick, -
• Fho4ld• fumigate the atmospher - i ,
And enakelhem feel so sick,t
.Pnr.be Who held this talisman,
,
' ' • . Filled with such magic power.
Neer tOld unto the suffering birds
What‘hrought him at that hour!
But to their bills he gently placed
The pale and trembling light
And 7 nuickly did the poor birds iltap
Down from their dizzy height.
' oW when the dreadful shock was o'er,
fif this mostitiorridindl,
They found that they were snugly cooped
' t i And could not roam at
F r they were caught and safely caged
‘ ‘..-iirgtfiiii this lone retreat;
"Iliere-led on cornet fatten well, • ,
- And make theta lit to eat.
The owner's time at length drew near
When they their death should meet,
And furnish both a plenteous cheer
With friends to help him eat.
He raised the coop with full intent
Both inrkies hie would slay,
When one he 'seized by both his wings,
The other flew away,
-. And front the branches of a tree
Witnessed with sad dismay,.
/ler husband's head dissevered,
` And there, a corpse. he lay:
And ever since no comfort bath
, • She, once so bright and gay,
And reels she was a widow made

lar'Aineridah Courtship.—An English paper
givesibe_following account of the Atne7ican court
shipa :
You know nothing in the old country of going
ahead. If you only saw one of our young'fell , )ws
setting off to pick up a wife, it would wake you
up atnazingly. There you would gee him pethaps
in - mharvvst afternoon ; with hie, wagon and best
team. He arrives at her father's dour=leaps out
—starts. right in. MiSi is sitting in the corner
sewing a napkin; father in the other putting e
new handle in his axe.
" Good iftertioun,Fred." say both in return
"I say, squiie,' stys Fred,s. , the old lady is in
the kitchen, with a something in head she wants
- to be telling you 'of: you had better start." ,
Still cutting away at the handle, the old 'squire
• gets up and leisurely bows , hiruself out of the room.
• "Now for it !" says Fred. "I say, Miss, it's
WI up with me."
" Up with you," says Miss; . " how's that!"
Why," says Fred, " there ain't no fun in-na
tur' in a feller living by his self in a house as big
as a Shaker's meeting, arid l 'itinhing in it barrio,
plenty of furnitup in the rooms; the kitchen
chuck' full of hams and ingin nets ; the cellar over
the lid with cider ; and nothing else in the uni
verse but- the livestock out of doors."
".Nell, what else would you haversays Miss,
" ain't that 'enough, you gooey
";Enough," says Fred, " no ! there ain't a wife
4 is the lOW
";Av ! that's queer," says Miss, with a blush.
".No, it ain't, says Frac!, "a critter must begin
sometime to be marlied. I've just taken--a thought
that way since thediouse is fixed. But I have
often though o' you, Miss! Oh ! there bow, T ay
deal, don't look fitistrated:" says Fred, in a sooth
ing tone, "I han't got hooey words - : but I've got
a heart, you may depend, ,as 'warm as a cooking
stove."- .
"Tut! Potere hiold," says Miss.
" Well, then," says Fred, " tut ain't no. • You
won't say that _ugly word !" ; '
" Won't I!" - says Miss.
Well, then," lays Fred, " will you say no,
When I ask you right off!' ,
be;sure I will, and keep my word too, you
garnered." -
A . Then," say &Fred with a solemn voice," Mary,

No," says ate, according to promise..
"There" you are?" says Fred, triumphantly.

All was settled right off; and Fred gut a Fitt) ,

Aneedote!of Hansillon.—Alexander Ham
ilton was once applied to as counsel, by a man
having the guardianship of several mittens.—
These infants would, on their coming of age, sec.
civil to a large and valuable estate, of which there
were some &leets in the tole deeds. This fact,
and .the mannerlin which it htppened, was known
only to the gderdian, who wished to employ
Hamilton as a counsel to vest in himself the title
of the estate. IHe related the whole affair cir
cumstantially, and was -requestedto all again,
before he would venture to give his advice in a
matter of so much importance. On his second
visit, Hamilton read over to him the minutes of
their previous Conversation that he had reduced
:to writing, and asked him if the statement was
correct. On•giving ah answer in the affirmative,
Hamilton replied, ‘• You are now completely in
my power, and I look upon myself as the guardian
of the unhappy children.. Take my advice—set
tle with them honorably to the whole amount, or
will hull yoti from your skin." It is proper to
add, that the advice was punctuallSr followed.
MPObeyirig Orders.—A certain general of the
United States army, supposing his favorite horse
dead, ordered lan Irishman to go and skin him.
What, is Silver tail dead ?" asked Put:
" What's that to you 1" replied the officer: "Do
•••i • ,
aseLbid you, and ask no questions."
Pat went about his business, and in.an hour or
Iwo returnetb.
" Well, Pat,where have you been all this time?"
asked the geheral. , '
" Skinning the horse, yerhonor."
" Does it take nearly two hours to perform such
an operation!" •
'" No. : oer honor; but thin ye see it tuk 'hose
balfan how to catch him."
, r , Catcb him! fire and furies! was he alive?"
" Yes, yer; honor ; viind ye know I couldn't skin
him alive."
"Skin him alive! did you kill him ?"
" To be sure I did ; ye know I must obey orders
without asking any questions !"
rtirtstifrom Eden.—"Comeand see me,"
said a young man to a fiiend whose appearance
was rather' poverty-stricken, " come and see me in
My new lodging : it overlooks a boarding school
of the loveliest girls—so I piss the whole day at
my window' and have hopes before long—you ult.

the ground of, its own intrinsic merits, more than any
other medicine of the kind now used and, while many
worm remedies have, by dint of puffing, been forced lute

their worthlessness justly merited, B. A. Fahnestock's
Vermifuge continues to be triumphantly sustained. It
has only to ho used and its effects will fully sustain all

ERYSIPELAS. --Encouragement.—For the benefit of
the afflicted. I freely give you a statement of my condi
tion. before I commenced with your Dr. Cullen's Indi
an Vegetable Panacea. Some four years since, my leg
became swollen, inflamed, and painfhl. The disease
was pronounced " Erysipelas,". I resorted to the usual
remedies, but without effeetHexcept in one case, ih
one case, fu which I tried a medicine advertised in an
ALMANAC, which, instead of curing, eat the flesh to the
hone: my leg became tery troublesome, and T began to
fear it wouldgesult irr>omething serious. Mr. Thorn
ton, a neighbor of 'mine, was taking your Panacea for
a scrofulous sore leg—andmuch benefitted, (now well)
and also a lady of my acquaintance. From their rep
resentations I was induced to give you a call, and your.
offer being so fair, it gave me confidence in your medi
cine, I commenced its use—and in
,less , than -three
months was entirely cured—my leg is perfectly sound,
and, as several months have elapsed, I have not the
least fear of a relapse.
MI
I give this testimonial cheerfully, hoping it may in
-1 duce others to make trial of what I believe to be one of
' the best medicines ever offered to the publl6: It would
give .me .much pleasure at any time to tieellhose who
wish any further information in regard to the Panacea,

FOR TUE BENEFIT OF THE AFFLICTED.— .
t New Oeleans, June lath, 1847.
Rewand* Walton, Philadelphia :—Gentteinen .--Se
van months ago, our child, a boy, then five months old,
was first attacked with a disease which made ita appear
ance in the farm of a sore on his bead, which covered
the entire scalp and part of the forehead. It was so
iudamed as to prevent the possibility of the little sneer
er getting his rest night or day. This state of things
lasted about two months, and in the meantime we had
advised with several eminent physicians, and each pro
nounced it different in its nature from the others, tnd
in their turns prescribed the disease they pronounced
it to be—all, however with no effect. Ha was getting
worse every day and was truly ha an alarming condition.
We had lost all hope,.when about the Ist of February,
one of out neighbors bought us a pamphlet, is which
your "Dr. Callen's fndian Vegetable Panacea" was so
highly recommended, that we could do no better than
give it a trial. • Still we had but little faith, but could
not bear to see the little one stiffer so much, while yet
there was a medicine untried. You may judge our Joy
and happiness when,, in the first few doses. we saw a
decided change for the better. The first bottle healed
the bead, and the sacOnd made the cure complete. The
child is now in perfect health and has been for some
-months past. Feeling it a duty we owe to the afflicted,
we give our permission to use thih as you see fit.
Yours, respectfully,
