THE YEARS. t tbs" uti hit. Lta aicaaoao. The years roll on, the years roll on. And shadows now sirctch o'er ihe lawn. Whereon the sunlight fell at mora The morn of mortal life ; And dusky hours m me have come ; Life's landscape now looks dread and dumb. And quenched the light, and (ceased the hum, With which or way was rife. I now look backward on the path Whereon I've walked 'mid wrong and wrath; I look, and see how much it hath Of bitterness to tell. But life's hard lesson must be learned By goading care is wisdom earned ; Then upward let thy ere be turned, And all earth's scenes are well ! On roll the years, the swift, still years, And as they pass, how feeling sears ! How drieth up ihe fount of tears ! Emotion's fires grow dim; This pulse of life not Ion; can last. And as the years go hurrying past. The blooms of life are earthward cast. And withered heart and limb. The years, t!ie years sublimely toll, Unfurling, like a lettered scroll ! Look on, and garner in thy soul The treasures of their lore, (t is God's writing there we see ; O. read with deep intensity ! Its truth shall with thy spirit be When years shall roll no more. ROADS. A SUBJECT OF GROWING IMPORTANCE. Of all things that all mankind are in tcrcated in, that all neglect the most, our common ctmntrj roads take the lead. The condition of tbe largest proportion of them w laid bs fr more appropriate to the year, 1555 than 1S55. We might much more aropriately look for such a sta'e of internal improvements in the interior of Africa than in a civilized country like the United State. Among the people in this country, only the builders of railroads seem; to under stand what are the requisites of a good road. A gool wagon road is level, smooth and Lard. To make a road straight in a Lilly country is folly. It is just as far over a hill as it is around it. During a few weeks in the Summers when the growing crops and the harvests demand the time and attention of every man that can be pared from other employments, locomo tion is possible, and in some cases easy, upon our country roads; but when produce is ready for market, or leisure invites us to journey, "the iray is hedged up." An "embargo" is laid on all internal commerce. I'pon the best of our common country roads an average load for two horses is forty bushels of wheat. What if they were improved, as they might well be, so that the same team wonld haul with the same case one Iiuudred bushels? Could the 'cutest guessing Yankee, or reckoning Tenncssccan, tell how many millions of dollars that would annually save to the wbeit-erowers since all that is grown is carried in wagons an average m mrmmni and much the largest portiou of it at much less than forty Lushels to the load ? j It has been repeatedly proved that one Lorse can draw more on a smooth level road than fifty horses can draw on our cjrnmcn roads. We know of roads much used that are nearly level nine tenths of the way, while the other tenth may be a hill that could be graded or passed around with less ex pense then the cost of hauling of er it ono year; or a piece of swampy land that in terveLts renders the other ten miles of good road of but little practical advantage to the traveler. 1 he CO iscquence is, that because the wagoner can not haul a full load over the hill or swamp, he goes only one quarter loaded over the whole length of the route. This is not the loss of only a single team, or even a single year to all. It is a loss to generation after generation, century after century. There are many, many ten-mile spaces passed over near cities, at an average loss of one hundred dollars a day 835,000 a year. In leveling hills, there is one sat isfaction thry never rise again once done they are done for ever. But we Dcrer shall have any better roads while the present Fystcm of road working prevails, of whkh it b impossi ble tothiuk of anything more perfectly 'ri diculous, more futile, more uneconomical. There is not a road district in America that owns a proper set of tools for road making ; and if there were it could not empLy them to any advantage, because the patb-mastcr, or overseer and director of the work, is often elected to that office because he will not be exacting upon ev ery man to pay his quota of work as a road-tax. The time spent on the road is generally valuable to the farmer, for it is usually called for in the Spring, but it is not on average worth fire cents a day to the road. It is one of the most vital ques tions before the American farmers wheth er they rliall continue the present system of making and repairing roads, and use bad odcs for another century. It is time that our road laws in all the States were changed aud the roads improv ed. The system that is bad and keeps bad is a disgrace to the intelligence of the age. The whole system of road-taxiug and road-working needs reforming. It is a duty that should be performed by Coogress,to appoint a commission to gath er facts upon road making all over this ountry, which would show the vast num ber of millions of d ltars lost and wasted ia miking and usinj bl roads. This might awVuen people to the truth that tbe road-tax is the most burthensome tax ever paid in any country.

THE very extensive prevailing condi tion of this disease, and the fact that it is not known to the public that Ihe undersigned is able to CURIAUCE, has induced him to make kno.wn to the public that he uses a pre paration in use by no less than 2.000 Ameri can Eclectic Physicians, called Restora five Wine ltiltrrs. This preparation acts on the Liver, Spleen, Stomach, Kidneys, indeed on the whole system, and brings it into a healthy and vigorous condition. Now when the whole system is brought into a perfect state of health, it is impossible for Ague to occur. which generally attacks the feeble, or those whose constitution has been broken by some cause. 1 his can generally be done by our Restorative, and almost every case completely cured.
