The Colonel, however, did not aurren

'hi ground till Clumberliyne, bringing
up his reserve; in the intimation that he
would introduce his menu to a young
and charming widow then beneath the
roof capitulated, on condition that be
ehould dine only dine and then, by
pressing his charger, and borrowing oi
Jhe night, he would reach Williamsburg
before his excellency could shake orj
his morning's slumbers. Ordsri were
accordingly issued to liiahop, the Colo

who, together with the fine English
charger, had been bequeathed by the
dying Braddock to Major Washington
on the famed and fated field of Motion
fcsheli. bishop bred in the school ol
European discipline, raised his hand to
liis csp, ss much as to say, your orders
hall be obeyed.
The Colonel now proceeded to the
mansion, and was introduced to various
guests, (for when was i Virginh domi
elt of the olden time wiihout geatsrj and
above all, to the charming widow. Tra
dition relates that they were of an age
when impressions are (he strongest.
The lady vvaa fair to behold, of fascina
ting manners, and spleodidly endowed
with worldlv bcefits. The hero was
fresh from his early fields, redolent of
fame, and with iform on which, eveiy
god did seem to set his seal to give the
world assurance of a man.'
The morning passed pleasantly sway,
evening came, with liishop true to hie
orders and firm at his post, holding his
favorite charger in one hand, while the
other wailing to oflcr tho ready siirrup.
The sun sunk in the horizon, and yet
the colonel appeared not. 4,Twaa
strange, 'twas passing strange;' surely
he was not wont to be a single moment
behind appointments for he waa the
most punctual of all men
" Meantime, Jys
of the veteran at the gate, while the co
lonel was so sgreeably employed in the
parlor; and proclaiming that no visitor
evei left his home at sunset, his milila
iy guest wiswith little difficulty penua
deo to order Bishop to put up the hor
tes for the night. The sun rode high
in the heaven the ensuing day, when
the enarmored soldier pressed wiih hit
spur his charger's side, and speeded on
his way to the Beat of government, where
having despatched his public business,
he letraccd hissleps, and at the White
I!me the angsgement took place with
pi epilations for marriage.
And mnch hath the biographer heard
of that marriage, from the gray haired
domestics who wailed at the hori
where love made the feast and Wash
iiiaion the cuett. And rare and high
was the revelry at that balmy period of
Virginia festal age; lor many were
gaihertd lo thai marriage of the good,
the eriat, the gifted, and they with
j iyous acclamations hailed in Virginia's
youihlul lieio a nappy end prosperous
bridegroom.
'And eo you remember when 'Colo
nel Washington came a courting of youi
young mi.trcs".?' said the biographer lo
old Cu'ly, in his hundredth year Aye

timily serva r, who ha I lived t) see

The mighiy ateam engine whether

ty loathe scenes of (heir respective la

white man and the black, trie serf and

Brandrcth's Pills.
EAD and understand ! The time will come
ft when Ihc medicine, Drandrcth 'ills, will b
ippreciatcd 89 lliey ought and deserve: it will In
undeihlood that Dr. Drandrcth has the Strauses!
laims upon Ihe public. It is true that every in
lividual who makes a trial of the Dtandrelli Pill:
cunceuu iiieiu iu ne me uest medicine lliev evei
used. They are indeed a medicine about w hich
there is no mistaka. Their value in a climate so
hangcable as ours cannot be suflicicntly approcinl-
u A Irce perspiration is at once restored , tha
hey cure colds, and consumption is prevented.
I'hose who have a redundancy of bile find them of
the most essential service, and should (here bo a dc
liciency of that important fluid the Brandrcth Pilli-
have an equally beneficial cllcct. Often has tin?
impoitnnt medicine saved valuable lives in those re
gions where the dreadful yellow fever was prevail
ing, A few doses taken immediately upon tho in
fection being received into tin system, will In ul
most certain to picvent any material inennvenir nee.
And at no stage of this dreadful epidemic is then
so proper a medicine as tho Drcndrcth Pills. Lei
this medicine be universally u.nd in thi.-
lisease, and no loss of blood allowed, und few.
ory few, would be its victims. So it is wilh othei
diseases. Assist nature wilh this all imporruni
medicine to remote mot bid humors Irani the blood
and do not resort to bleeding or mercury, and we
hall have a ery great scaicily nf persons ofilicleil
with cronic maladies. The feathered tribe the an-
mal kingdom- over which we are the lords, arc
nut afflicted with chronic maladies; neither should
we be if it were not for our prioe which occasions
them, follow naturo. tsc the medicine whi'l
harmonizes with her, which mildly but surely re
moves all the impurities of the blood.w Inch strength
ens the fecble.and yet reduces those of too full habit
to a healthy standard. Let me again say that every
lepaitment (if the manufacture of Brandieth Pills
is personally superintended y me, and that every
box with rny three labels upon it may be relied up
on to have the beneficial effect described if used
according to the directions accompany :ng,
