BUTTERCUPS AND DAISIES.
BV MARY DEWITT.
Buttercups and daisies
Oh ! the pretty flowers 1
'Coming here in spring time,
To tell of sunny hours
'While thrtree are leafless,
"While the fields are bare,
Buttercups and dailies
-Spring up here and there.
Ere the snew-drop peepeth,
Ere the crocus bold,
Ere the early primrose
Opes its paley gold.
Somehow -or a sunny bank
Buttercups are bright,
Somewhere moRf the frozen grass
Peeps the daisy white.
Little liardy lowers,
Like to children poor,
Playing in their sturdy health
By their mtther's door;
Purple with the northwest wiad,
Yet alert and bold,
Fearing not and caring not
Though they be a cold.
What to them is weather !
What are stormy showers 1
Buttercups and daisies
Are these human flowers!
He who gave them hardship,
.And a life of care,
Give them likewise l:ardy strength,
And patient hearts to bear.
"Welcome, yellow buttercups,
"Welcoase, daisies white,
Ye are in my spirit,
Visioned, a delight 1
'Coming ere the spring time,
Of sunny hours to tell
Speaking to our hearts of him
Who dosth ell things well.
ON A SECOND MARRIAGE.
The shipwreck sailors, who again
To storms expose their lives,
Show far more wisdom than the men
Who Marry second wires.
LAWYER'S DECLARATION,

And all the fees in tail,

Thou best of fees Female.

On earth they bloom no mere.

HEBREW PLASTER.
fWHIS Recipe, obtained of an old Jew by o trav-
JL
cllcr in tho Eastern countries, bids fair to bo
of immense value to the Western world. Since
this plaster has been introduced into America,
every other plaster, salve, ointment or lina-
mcnt has-been discontinued by 1I who have had an
opportunity of testing tho superior medical virtues
of tho Jew David's or Hebrew Plaster. Truth,
though simple, is powerful, and will prevail with an
enlightened community, over nil tho puffings and
fictitious affidavits with which tho world is flooded,
The sterling worth of this plaster, is recognised, ap-
predated, and its use eanctioned by tho highest
classes of society. One simultaneous burst of ap-
probation arises from tho thousands who have used
it, which shows, that when a remedy possesses high-
ly intrinsic (ircnis iiku inis, u uues r.ui lau 01 re-
cciving the patronage of our intelligent public.

popularity of Dr. Lcidy;s Blood Pills.
The public are therefore particularly requested to
bo cautious when purchasing, ta ask for Dr. LEI-
DX'S ULUOD PILLS.
The public arc assured that Dr. IitidtPa ItloeA
Villa are the safest, best, and most efficacious
of any now in use, containing neither Mercury or
tne .Minerals, and may be employed by young and
old, male and female at all limes and under all
circumstances without fear from taking cold, re
straint from diet in living or occupation.
in all cases where a purgation may be necessary
these Pills will be found both effectual and easy in
their operation, producing no nausea, or Sickness
of tho Stomach, griping or any other unpleasant
sensations.
Further comment is deemed unnecessary the
numerous certificates published from time to time
from Physicians and other individuals must havo

how much distress would bo avoided and money
