scribo it to you.
When I was in my thirteenth year, my
mother, who always was a pale and sick
ly woman died, leaving mo to tho care of
my father, who wa3 a man of extensive
lncrchantilc business, and consequently had
littlo time to devote to tho training of his
only child ; h I was left to tho caro of
servants, who never opposed a wish of their
young mistress. 1 was naturally possessed
of a good disposition, but was becoming
spoiled by the indulgence- of thoso around
me. Thus things passed for more than a
year, I in the meantimo ruling liko 11 young
Victoria, all thoso who wcro placed around
mo, when one evening papa came home and
calling mo to him, said : " Lillian, darling,
I received a lettar from your mother's cous
in, Anne Sherman, stating that sho inten
ded spending a few weeks with us, and
would bo with us by tho nextVcvcmng's
train. 1
" Now Lillic, I wish you to bti a very
good little girl, and to try to make your
Cousin's stay with us agreeable ;) for she
is a most estimable person and vas your
Mother's dearest friend. I wish also that '
you would try and correct those exhibitions
of' temper that are getting the' mastery so
completely over you, and be a good little
girl for your Mother'ake."
Tho next time papa's carriage drove up
to tho door, paja allighted and handed
out a lady whcym I knew to bo cousin An
ne. I had jiffver seen her, and I spent the
wholo day In wondering whether she would
JiSLpbl 'or young, beautiful or otherwise,
and whether I should like her or not ; and
when I pestered papa with all these con
jectures, ho only said, "have patienco Lil
lian, till evening, and then you can judge
for yourself ;" so when the carriage drove
up I was undecided whether I should re
main in tho parlor or withdraw to my room.
But whilo standing, still undecided what I
should do, tho door opened and she came
in, followed by papa. I was always a re
served child, and meeting with few beside
our own family, I was much more so in the
pressenco of strangers, and consequently
stood still, hid by the drapery of the win
dow, till papa observing me, called me to
como forward and pay my respects to cous
in Anne. I approached her ; and I think
I never saw a person who struck mo so fa
vorably as did Anne,and I felt as tho glance
of her sweet hazel eyes fell upon me, that
she was destined to wield a powerful influ
ence over ,110 : and when sho drew mo to
her arms and imprinting a ki-if upon my
brow exclaimed, "and this is Lillian, is it I
How liko her mother, darling !" I felt
my heart drawn out to her with a lovo that
has ever since burned with a steady and
brighter glow.
Although ono glance sufficed to tell me
that she was not young, yit she possessed
that beauty of couutenauco that time can
not efface. Sho was tall, and queenly iu
her bearing, and airy and graceful as a
bird in her movements, und her hair was
as black and glossy as u raven's wing, and
fell in natural ringlets over a neck and
throat of snowy whiteness ; yet it was that
beauty of soul shilling through her face,
that drew 1110 to her and kept mo there
as if by magnetism ; I tit rather than
knew that she would prove a truo friend
tome. Sho stayed with ui a mouth, and
during that time I hardly left her side.
Rut the time came for her to leave. This
I could not think of, and I would not be
comforted till sho told mo that sho had
extracated from papa a ruluctant permis
sion that I should return with her to Ma
plo Grove. I was delighted to go, yet I
could not think of lcaing papa altogether.
Rut when he promised to come and sec his
Lily very often, my joy knew no bounds.
It was near sunset when we arrived at
Maplo Grove. Wo were warmly welcomed
by cousin Anno's whole family, which con
sisted of an old negro servant and his wifj,
that had long been in tho service of the
Sherman family, and who could not suf
ficiently express their joy at tho return of
"Missrs Anno ;" mid she in return had a
kind word end a trivial present for each,
which tho mines of Potosi could not have

and pretty as she was, had not long
ere this been married, and if sho had not
once had as many admirers as thoso who
thronged around the rustic beauties of that
placo.
I looked up as I spoke, and sho was
greatly agitated ; her whole frame shook
with irrepressible emotion, and she spoke
to me with a sternness that she had never
before used to me. " Lillian Ainslio, do
you know what.you are asking!" I had
never seen her in suel, a mood, and fearing
I had greatly offended her, I buried my
face in my hands and sobbed aloud. 0 I
forgive me Anne, I did not mean to offend
you, indeed 1 did not, l sobbed out, anu
threw myself on the grass nt her feet. She '
stooped down and raised me tenderly from
the ground, and seating ,110 by her side,
said, " yes I will, I will tell you what I

was aroused at some petty annoyance the
small girls suffered from somo of the other
boys, bis eyes would sparkle and flash and
seem to emit sparks of livid fire. Ah !
thoso eyes, no wonder my heart was cn
slaed I His hair hung in curling locks
j nearly to his shoulders, and his mouth, al

with teeth of pearly whiteness. He was

Frank would not or could not understand
this ; be insisted that others around him
were as good as he, provided they did no
mean and cowardly action, and I, child
that I was, did not know it was a crime to
be poor. As we grew older, our childish
attachment ripened into ardent and sincere
love. He loved 1110 with all the parsionatc
ardor of his life, and I, I worshiped him.
As at school he hud been my youthful com
panion, so now ho was my most gallant
defender, nor would ho brook for an instant

How to Mark Extra Rranchks
Grow o.v Fkar Treks. A writer in tho
Virginia Farm Journal states that he has
succeeded in starting branches on his pear
trees wherever ho wishes a limb to grow.
Ho says: "A careful examination will
show plenty of dormant eyes, or knurls, on
tho stock. To produce a shoot, a slit or)
gash is made over the eye, and into thu
wood, with a knife or fine saw, which, by
checking the flow of sap, starts these dor
mant eyes into life, and in throe cases out
of four a branch ahoots forth."

Wool Mr. C. E. Wethcrcd, of Balii
more, Md., communicates to the Hurnl
RryLter, some information upon the sub
ject of preparing wool for tho market, tho
substance of which is as follows : Fir.-t,
rornnvn tho tag and leg locks, then shear,
and spread tho fleece on a clean floor, or
table, with the sheared part down ; thou
fold tho belly parts 10 the centre of the
llecce, aDd rcat the operation till the
fleece is ten or twelve inches wide ; now
"oil tho fleece, pressing hard at tho same
time ; when tho fleece is nearly rolled,
make a rope of tho neck and upper part of
I the shoulders by twisting at d thawing, till
long enough to reach once round, and turn"
ihe end under the twisted rope. The uso
of pilch is rejected, and farmers are advi

HOSTETTER'S
STOMACHJITTERS.
It Is a fact that, at some period, cm? num
ber of the human family I aubject to dlseaae
or dUturbanco of the bodily fnuctlooi) but,
with the aid of a Rood tcralo and the exercise
of plain common senae, they may be able so to
regulate tho system as to leeuro permanent
health. In order to accomplish Hill desired
object, the true course to pursue la certainly
that which will produce a natural state of
things, at tho least hazard of vital strength and
life. For this purpose, Dr. Hosteller has In
troduced to this country a preparation bearing
his namo, which is not a new medicine, but one
that has been tried for years, giving satisfac
tion to all who have used it. Tlio Bitters
operate; powerfully upon tke stomach, bowels,
and liver, restoring them to a healthy and
vigorous action, and thus, by the simple pro
cess of strengthening nature, enable the sys
tem to triumph over disease.
For the euro of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Hau
sea, Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, or any Bilious
Complaints, arising from a morbid inaction
of the Stomach or Uowels, producing Cramps,
Dysentery, Colic, Cholera Morbus, tee., these
Hitters have no equal,

by the change of water and diet, will be speedily
provalent, in all its various forms, than any
other, mid tho causo of which may always
bo attributed to dcranecmcnts of tho digestive
organs, can be cured without fall by utlng
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTEP.S, as per
directions on the bottle. For this disease every
physician wilt recommend Hitters of seme kind ;

tern in general; and among them all there b

nated, based upon scientific experiments which
havo tended to prove tho valuo of this great
preparation in tho scalo of medical science.
Fevsr and Aoob. This trying and provok
ing disease, which fixes Its relentless grasp on
tho body of man, reducing him to a mere eha
dow in a short time, and rendering him phy
sically and mentally useless, can bo driven
from tho body by tho uso of HOSTETTER'S
RENOWNED 1HTTE113. Further, none of the
above-stated diseases can be contracted, e."vcn
in exposed situations, if the Bitters are used
us per directions. And as they neither create
nausea nor offend tho palate, and render nn
nccessary any chango of diet or Interruption
of ordinary pursuits, but proinoto sound sleep
and healthy digestion, tho complaint is re
moved ns speedily as Is consistent with the pro
duction of n thorough and permanent cure.
For Persona in Advanced Yean, who aro
suffering from an enfeebled constitution and
infirm body, these Bitters are invaluable as a
restorativo of strength ami vigor, and need
only bo tried to bo appreciated. And l
mother whila nursing these Bitters aro indis
pensable, especially whero tho mother's nour
ishment is inadequate to tho demands of the
child, consequently her strength must yield,
and hero it is whero a good tonle, such as
Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, is needed to impart
temporary strengtli and vigor to the system.
Ladies should by nil menne try this remedy
for nil cases of debility, and, before so doing,
should ask thrir physician, who, if he ia
acquainted with tho virtue of tho Bitters, will
recommend their uso in all cases of weakness.
CAUTION. We caution the public against uting
any of tho many imitations or counterfeita, but ask
for IIosiKTTEn's CaLzBRATEn StOMAcn Bimns,
and seo that each bottlo baa tlio words "Dr. J.
Huslettcr'a Stomaeh Bitters" blown on tbo aide
of tho bottle, and stamped on tho metallic, cap

CELEBRATED
VERMIFUGE
LIVERPILLS.
X7E beg leave to call the atten
tion of the Trade, and more
especially the Physicians of the
country, to two of the most popu
lar remedies now before the public.
We refer to
Dr. Plus. M'Lane's Celebrated
Vermifuge and Liver Pills.
We do not recommend them as
universal Cure-alls, but simply for
what their name purports, viz. :
THE VERMIFUGE,
For expelling Worms from the
human system. It has also been
administered with the most satis
factory results to various Animals
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS,
For the cure of Liver Com plai nts,
all Bilious Derangements, Sick
Head-Ache, 6cc. In cases of
Fever and Ague,
preparatory to or after taking Qui
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men
tioned diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and ncer known to fail when ad
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors,
Fleming Brothers,
Pittsburgh, Pa.
to dispose of their Drug business,
