AN IRISH LOVE SONG,
BT FRANCIS DAVIS.
"Oh! for an hour when the day is breaking.
Down by tbe shore when the tide is making!
Fair as a white cloud, thou, love, near me,
None but the waves and thyself to hear ine.
Oh ! to my breast how these arms would
press thee;
Wildly my heart in its joy would bless thee ;
Oh ! how tho soul thou hast won would woo
thee;
Girl of the suow-neck, closer to mo !
Oh 1 for an hour as the day advances,
* (Out where the breeze on the broom bush
dances)
Watching the lark, with the sun-ray o'er us,
Winging the notes of his heaven-taught cho
rus.
Oh ! to be there, and my love before me,
Soft as a moonbeam smiling o'er me ;
Thon would'st but love, and I woulJ woo
(hee;
Gill of the dark eye, closer lo rac !
T)b! for an hour when the sun first found us,
(Out jo the eve with its red sheets round us)
Brushing the dew from the gale s soft wiug-
Pearly and sweet, with thy long dark ring
lets: .....
•Oh"! to be there on the sward beside thee,
Telling my tale, though I know you'd chide
ine:
Sweet were thy voice though it should undo
me— ,
Girl of the dark locks, closer to mo !
Oh! for an hour by night or by day, love.
Just as the heavens and thou might say, love;
Far from the stare ol the cold-eyed many,
Bound in the breath of ray dove-souled Nan
ny! -
Oh! for the pure chains that have bound me,
Warm from thy red lips circling round me y
Oh ! in my soul, as the light above mo,
Uucen of the pure hearts, do I love thee !"
From the Boston Carpet-Bag.
The Man Vho Knew Everything.
—''Very like a whale."— Shales.
A mighty knowing man was Caleb Page,
who kept the grocery at the fork of the road,
near Woodchuck creek, Scrag Hollow, it:
village of Hornyille. No occurrence had
ever taken place, of all the particulars ol
which Caleb did not possess a thorough
knowledge, in the minutest detail. All mat
ters in the perspective were anticipated, dis
cussed, arranged and satisfactorily disposed
of by Caleb long before they took place. If
a neighbor rushed into the store to commu
nicate what ho btlieved to be a very recent
piece of news, he would have the conceit
lak en out of hirn by being told by Caleb,
that he'had hoard of it a week ago.' E
vents of the past, present and tnlure, were
all tho samo to him ; his übiquitous knowl
edge grasped aud covered them ill—to him
they were all 'stale news.'
A-small bet was made one evening, be
tween Bi Stevens and Joe Stubbins. Si bet
that Joe couldn't nonplus Caleb with any
piece of intelligence, real or imaginary. Joe
■•.took all such bets as that," —The following 1
evening, Si and Joe, accompanied by two or
tbree more of the 'boys' of the village, who ;
were to 'help the thing along,' and 'fill in,'
proceeded lo Caleb's store. After being
comfortably seated hore and there, on bar
rels, boxes, etc., Si ope'ned the evening's a
musements by asking, in a manner that in.
dicaled he was continuing a conversation
commenced before they entered the store ;
'So you say, Joe, that they caught htm
last night 1'
'Yes, sir, about seventeen minutes |a-past
-eight.'
'Well, Joe, how far up the creek was it V
'On a careful consideration, 1 should say
it was about three miles, or three miles and a
quarter, or perhaps a half, up the said
creek.'
Caleb, who bad lost not a word of the
conversation, dropped his sugar-scoop with
astonishment, and opened his ears, for the
boys were talking about a matter in which
he was not 'posted up.' The conversation
continued ;
'Well,'says Si,'that couldn't a-been far
irom Deacon Hunt'a V
'Jest so,' answered Joe, 'it was about eigh
ty rods from Deacon Hunt's hog-pen, iu a
alanchwise direction.'
'Did you hear, Joe,' asked Si, with a face ,
v as solid as a gravestone, 'how m uch ile they
got V
•'Yes, I did,' replied Joe, with another face
as solemn as two gravestones ; 'I beam tell
that they got nigb upon sixty bar'ls of ile.'
The wags observed I bat Caleb was get
ting exceedingly uneasy, and piled it on.'
'Well, Joseph, how long was tho reptile ?'
•Well, Silas, the insect was about eighty
two feet long, and twenty-eight feel, odd in
ches, broad, and thick in proportion.'
'I thought, Joe, that there was two on
'em.'
'That's a fact; there was a pair of 'em,
but they only caught the he one.'
At this point in the dialogue, Cnleb be
came so desperately excited that he could
contain bimself 110 longer, and snappishly
'demanded to know, 'what'n thunder they
were talking about V
'Why,' said Joe, with well feigned aslon
iahment, 'don't you know about their catch
ing that are—'
'Tjtat are what V peevishly snarled Ca
leb.
'Why (hat are whale /' seriously answered
Joe Stebbins.
'A whale I exclaimed the bewildered Ca
leb, 'have they caught a whale up the
creek 1'
'They haven't caught anything else,' said
the imperturable Joe.
'And how much ile did they 1' inquired
Caleb, as he recovsred his wits.
'Ninety-two bar'ls,' replied Joe, forgetting
the amount he had previously montioued.
'Well,' said Caleb, with slow deliberation,
and a satisfied look, 'I am glad they caught
that while, for I heard they were arter him I'
loe paid the bet.

ESSEKCT: OF COFFEE.
A BOUT two years ago a new discovery
| •'"■ was made in Europe, consisting of a
substitute for the ordinary store coffee, called
j Essence of Cofleo, which lias gone into gen
j eral use with astonishing rapidity, not only
■ among the poorer classes, who at once dis-
I pensed with the use ol the celebrated Chick
! ory Coffee, but is now in general use in the
| wealthiest families and the first hotels, and
i is highly recommended by the medical fac
! ulty.
| It is extracted from pure, wholesome veg
i etables. and excels all similar preparations 1
: thai have ever been offered to the public,
j either iu this country or in Europe. Its su
] perior quality has already been attested to in
; the cities by sorjie of the most eminent phys-
I icians, and a number of the most distinguish
ed of the clergy and oilier highly respectable
citizens. Coffee made from this essence ac
] cording to the prescription obtains a more
| delicious and pleasant favor than the com
' mon store coffee, and is certainly more
| wholesome, especially for persons in deli
| cate health, which will be admitted by eve
ry physician who will take the pains to test
the nnuue and properties of this essence.
One paper costing only 12i ots., is equal
to four pounds of store coffee, will be bright
and clear without the application of any
other ingredient to clarify or settle it. The
publio are therefore invited to give this es
sence at least a trial before they condemn it.
A respectable merchant of Luzerne coun
i ty in writing of it saj s:
| "My customers have been using of the
! above Essence for some months past with
! general satisfaction ; and I do not hesitate
! to recommend it to the public.

from the very jaws of the dealioyer through '.he
agency of tli.it most potent of all medicines,
DR CULLEN'S INDIAN VEGETABLE
PANACEA.
Dr Cullcn's Panacea is the only cirlain cure
foi Scrofula or King's Evil, Tetter, Erysipelas.
Old Sores and Ulcers, Mercurial Diseases, and all
other afFeslions.tulanenus or otherwise, arising
from impurities of the blood.
In the extraordinary cure of Mr. Brooks, peo
ple who visit him, hold up their bauds in as
tonishment, that ASI medicine could have ar
rested ins disease—then go away resolved to re
commend l)r Cullen's Indian Vegetable Pana
cea to every one they hear of who has need of a
purifying medicine.
So with Christiana Solids—lter cujo of Scrof
ulous sore throat was quite as extraordinary as
Mr. Brooks', when wo reflect that from the dis
ease her tea or cofl'ec would frequently pass out
of her ears, when attempting to drink, [Sec
her certificate.}
The people are beginning to understand, too
that the various Syrups of Sarroparilla are little
better than molasses, and that it is madness to
throw away money on articles which, under the
most favorable circumstances, do not produce
any impression on the system until several gnl
ons have been swallowed. One bottle of Dr.
Cullcn's Panacea seldom fails to produce con
viction in the minds of patients that a radical
cure is certain.
Thusho|, [so necessary,an ally to medi
cine.] springs up at the oelset, and the patient
is cured before any other preparation could have
made the slightest impression upon thedisease !
In fact, the twelve ounce bottles of Di. Cul
len's Panacea, compared with the pint and quart
bottles of other purifiers, are valuable about in
the proportion of gold to copper. Those who
wools prefers penny to a half eagle, on accoun
of its size, would make a poor selection to sat
the least.
Sarsaparilla a good purifier! Dr. Cullen's
Panacea contains its oxtract in its most concen
trated form. Added to this are other extracts,
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with tho Sarsaparilla, what the litt
le,'article, or combined with the most powcrfo
poisons, cannot alone accomplish.
It has cured where everything else had failed
and this in a multitude of cases—not in Europe
or in the moon, (wheie so many great cures
| have been performed,) but in Philadelphia and
! other pafts of tho union. And be it distinctly
understood that we do not obtain our extracts by
"holing 400 gallons down to one," it being
known to evciy druggist's apprentice that boiling
destroys the essential virtues of medicinal plants
a'nd roots.

after Nature's own method, by Nature's own

DICKSTIOS.
Digcs'ion t3 Chiefly performed in the
stomach by the aid of a fluid which freely
exudes from the inner coat of that organ,
when in a state ol health, culled the Casino
Juice. This fluid is the Great solvent of tho
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimula
ting Agent of the stomach and iutensrines.
Without it there will he no digestion,—nrv
e.onverston of food into blood, anil no nu
trition of the body ; bnt rather a foul, torpid,
painful, and destructive condition of the
whole digestive ,apparatus. A weak, hall
dead, or injured stomach produces no good
Gastric Juice, and hence the 'Was* die
ressand debility which er.izi.
Persia- AMILLT.NNET.—-Pepsin is lire shitr
element, or great Digeating Principle of thr
it ice. It is found in great abun
dance m the solid parts of the human elem
ach after de ith, and sometimes causes tfitf'
stomach to digest itself, or eat i'self up. It
is ulso found in the stomach of animals, as
the ox, calf, &c. It is the material used by
farmers in makirg cheese, called Kennel,
the effect of which has long been the spe
cial wonder of the dairy. The curdling of
milk is the first process of digestion. Ren
net possesses astonishing power. The stom
ach of a calf will curdle nearly one thotr
sand times its own weight of milk. Baro-
I.iebig states that, 'One part of Pepsin dis
solved in sixty thousand parts of water, wil
digest meat and other food." Diseased
stomachs produce no good Gastric Juico
Rennet or Pepsin. To show that this want
may he perlectly supplied, we quote th
following
SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LIEBIC, in Lis celebrated work on
nimal Chemistry, says : "An Artificial Di
estivc Fluid analugo us to the Gastric Juice,
muy 6c readily prepared from the nucous
ginembrar.e of the stomach of the Call,
which various articles of food, as moat ami
oggsj will be softened, changed, and diges
t d, just in the same manner as they wouldi
be in ilie human stomach."
Dr. I'ereira, in his famous treatise oiv
"Fond and Diet," published by Fowlers &
Wells, New York, page 35. (tales the Fame
great fact, and describes the method of prep
aration. There are few higher authorities
than Dr. I'ereira.
Dr Combe, in his valuable writings or*
the "Physiology of Digestion," observe
that "a diminution of the due quantity of
the Gnstric Juice is a prominent mid all pre
vailing cause of Dyspepsia;" and he slate,
that "a distinguished professor of medicine
in London, who was severely afilicled it i h.
thiscomplaint finding every thing else to
fail, had recourse to the Gtta.iio Juice, eb
taiued from the storrach ol Fving animals,
which proved completely successful."
Dr. Graham, author of tl.e famous work,
on "Vegetable Diet," says : "it is a remar
kable fact in physiology, that the stomachs
of animals, macerated in water, impart to
the Hub! the property of dissolving various
articles of food, and of effecting a kind of
artificial digestion of them in no wise dif
ferent front the natural digestive process."
Dr. Simon's great work, the "Cheniisiry
of Man," (Lea & Blanchard, I'hiia.. I 84(5 r
pp. 3212): "The discovery of PEPSIN
fo ms a new era in the clicmictil history of
Di gcslion. From recent experiments we
know that food is dissolved us rapidly in an
artificial digestive lluid, prepared from Pep
sin, as it is in the natural Gastric Juice it
self."
l'rofsor Dunglison of the Jefferson Col
lege, Philadelphia, in his great work on Hit
man Physiology, devotes more than fifty
pages to an examination of this subject.
His experiments with Dr Beaumont, on th
Gastric Juice, obtained from the living hu
man stomach and from animals are well
known. "In all cases," he says, "digestion
occurred as perfectly in the artificial as the
natural digestions."
As a DYSPEPSIA CVRER, Dr Hnnghtonb
preparation of Pepsin lias produced the
most marvellous effects, curing cases of De
bility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and
dispeptic Consumption, supposed to bo on
die very verge of the grave. It is imposs
ble to give the details of cases in the limit
of this advertisement—hot authenticate
certificates have been of more than two hun
dred Remarkable Cures, in Philadelphia, New
York, Thtd Boston alono. These wers
nearly all desperate cases, and the cures
were not only rapid and wonderful, but per-' *
rnanent.
It is a great Nervous Antidote, and pai
-1 ticularly useful for tendency to billious dis
order, Liver Complaint, Fever and Ague, or
badly treated Fever and Ague, mid the ev
il effects of Quinine, Mercury, and other drug
upon the D.gestive organs, alter a long sick
