MIMMI HOOFLANDIS GERMAN BITTERS, MEI Hoofland's Genial': Tonic, The great Remedies for all Diseases of the LI ver, Stomach or Digestliro Organs. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS Is cotnposed of the pure Juices (or, all they are medicinally termed, Extracts) of Roots, Herbs an d Barks, =S making a prepara tion highly concen- 11 trated and entirely free (rem alcoholic admixture of any kind. llootiand's German, Tonic Is a com b ination of all the ingredients of the Bitters, with the purest quality of Banta Cruz Rum, Orange,. etc., making one of the most pleasant and agreeable remedies ever offered to the public. Those preferring a Medicine, free from Alco holic admixture, will use ILOOFLANTXS -GERMAN BITThRS Those who have no objection to the coruhlaa- Ma of the Bitters, as stated, will use HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC They are both equally good, and contain the same medicinal virtues, the choice between the two being a mere matter of taste, the Tonic be ing the most palatable. The stomach, from Is variety of causes, such as Indigestion, Dys- peiole Nervous De bility, etc., is very apttohave its func tions deranged. The IA • Liver.sympathlzing as closely as it does with the Stomach, then becomes affected, the result of which is that the patient suffers from. several. or more of the following diseases: Constipation, Flatulence, Inward Piles, Full nims of Blood to the Head Acidity of the Stom ach, Nausea, Heartburn, Disgust for Food,Full ness or Weight In the Stomach. Sour Eructa tions, Sinking or Fluttering at the Pit of the Stomach, Swimming of the Head, Hurried or Difficult Breathing, Flutterin at the Heart, Choking or Suffocating Sensations' ons' when In a lying posture, Dimness of Vision, Dots or Webs before the Sight, Dull Pain in the Head, Defl• clencv of Perspiration, Yellowness of the Skin anti Eyes, Pain in the Side, Back. Chest, Limbs, etc., Sudden Flashes of) Heat, Burning of the Flesh, Constant Imaginings of Evil and Great Depression of Spirits. The sufferer from these diseases should excr• else the greatest caution 1n the selection of a remedy for his case, purchasing on 1 y that which be is as-cured from his in vettigations and in- fl q u I ries possesses true merit, is skill- fully compounded is free from injurious ingredients and has estab lished for itself a reputation for the cure of these diseases. In this connection we would submit these well-known remedies— ' troor• I. A.N lI'S GERMAN BITTERS, LED 'IIOOI` L'A N D'S GERMAN TONIC, Prepared by DR. C. M. aiLCIISON, Philadelphia, Pa • Twenty-two years since they wort; ling intro duced into this country from Germany, during which time they have undoubtedly performed more cures, and beneflUed suffering 'humanity to a greater extent, than any other remedies known to the public. These remedlini will effectually cure Liver Com pl a int, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Chronis or Nervous Chronic Diarrhoea, Diseases of the Kid- new and all diseas es arising from a dis- or der ed Liver, Stomach., or Intestines. DEBILITY, Resulting from any cause whatever; Prostra. Hon of the System, induced by Severe Labor, Hardships, Exposure, Fevers. Etc. There Is no medicine extant equal to these remedies in such crows. A tone and vigor is itn warted to the whole system, the appetite is strengthened, fcsxl is enjoyed, the stomach di gests promptly, the blood is 'purified. the com plexion' becomes sound and healthy, the yellt3w tinge is: eradicated from the eyes, a bloom is given to the cheeks, and the weak and nervous invalid becomes a strong and healthy being. Persons advanced In life, and feeling the hand of time weighing heavily upon them, with all its attendant Ills, will find in thence of this BITTERS, or the TONIC, an elixir that will In stil new life into their veins, restore in a meas ure the energy and ardor of more youthful days, build up their shrunken forms and give health and happiness to their remaining years. NO2 I .ICM. It Is a well establhbed fact that fully one-half of the female portion of our population are seldom in the en- T Joyment of good health; or, to use ..LJ their own expres sion, "never feel well." They ate lan guid, devoid of all energy, extremely nervous, and have no appetite. To this class of persons the BITTERS, or the TONIC, is especially recommended. Weak and delicate children are made strong by the use of tither of these remedies. They will cure every case .of MARARMUS, without fall. Thousands of certificates have accumula ted in the bands of the proprietor, but space will allow of but few. These, awn! be observed, are men of note ancl of such standing that they rtinst be believed. plawrir mow X A.l_4* I RON. GEORGE W.

I hear it now, Tho' years have paned away ; Unheeded then in youthful days, When I was wild and gay, She sighed for met—my wayward heart Would oft, too oft rebel ; Her loving tones of mild reproof Are all remembered well. My mother's sigh ! It chides me now, In years now more matured ; Unmov'd I stood by all the griefs And sorrows she endured. - She sighed for me! oh! bitter thought ! When e'er I disobeyed. Her loving eyes would till with tear +, . And then for me she prayed. My mother's sigh! its echo come, From out my inmost soul ; Unhusli'd remorse forever makes That painful echo roll She sighed for me—unnumbered sigh;— They all unheeded were ; At last I broke her loving heart, And never sighed for her ! Thy mother's sigh! ohi wayward youth, Who'er perchancelhou art, Beware—by all that's trde—beware ! Grieve not thy mother's heart. By all that's true, ere long and oft, Before thou too shalt die, Thou% hear (unless in mercy huSled) The echo of that sigh! DAVID CROCKETT. BY JAMES PAUTON Few• men have reached Congress by a stranger rdad than the eccentric individual - nameil at the head or this article. Some men have talked, others have written, others have fought themselves Into Congress; but David Crockettshot himself thither. It was his Vjonderful skill as a marksman, and his dank as a bear hunter, which made him so popilar in his district that when he chose to run for office he usually distanced all com petitors. He could shoot a humming bird on the wing with a single ball. Seated upon the margin of a river, he would aim at a fish, and as soon .as the crack of his rifle was heard, one of the little inmates of the stream would be seen struggling on the surface. He used to speak of battered old rifle in words like these : "She's a mighty rough, old piece, but I love her; for sli and I have seen hard times. She mighty seldom tells me a lie. If I hold her right she always sends the ball where I tell her." Shooting was not his only qualification. He had other gifts and gracis calculated to win the favor • ofla frontier population ; al though it was his matchless skill with the rifle that first dreti attention to him. He was an abundant relator of comic anecdotes, and an utterer of those eccentric remarks which are passed from mouth to mouth, and form a large part of thecommon stock of wit in a country place. Forty or fifty years ago, almost every newspaper that appeared had a story in it in some odd corner, in which the name of David Crockett figured. He was born in East Tennessee, the , 116. b. <roam <4 dela. Crockett, who by turns was a farmer, miller and tavern keeper. This John Crockett was the son of an emigrant from the North of Ireland, who, after fighting with noted cour age through the Revolutionary war, settled in East Tennessee.' There he and his 'wife were murdered by the Creek • Indians ; one of his sons was wounded; another was ear- ried into captivity, and remained a prisoner with the Indians seventeen years. John Crockett escaped, grew up, and in due' time became the father of the famous David. When the ho 7 became seven years old, his father met with a misfortune which reduced him to utter poverty. A freshet swept away a new mill in which he had invested the savings of a lifetime. It wascarried off bodi ly, leaving not a wreck behind. The unfor- Innate proprietor then removed to another county, and opened a small tavern not far from the present city of Knoxville. It happened one evening when David was twelve years of age, that an old Dutchman, a drover, put up at his father's tavern, hav ing With him a drove of cattle. To this Dutchman John Crockett hired his son as a drover's boy, with' the understanding that he was to help drive the cattle as far as - Rich mond and then return. Away he went and was soon in high favor with the Dutchman, front whom he learned those Dutch anec doteslind the Dutch brogue which he after wards employed with so much effect. He liked his manner very well, but atter travel ing for some weeks with the cattle, he be came homesick, ran away, joined,a wagoner bound for East Tennessee, and so reached home again. The [Vert winter his lather sent him to school for the first time in his life ; but be fere he had been there a week, be had a fight with one of the seholars,,in which he gained the victory and heat his antagonist so severe ly petite dare not show himself at school again. So he played truant for several days; but discovering that his father had found him out, he thought it p rudent to beat a re treat, and hired himse lfto another drover who was going to Virginia. Many were his adventures. ,His employer. after - ill-treating him frivarions ways, turned him adrift hun dieds-of miles from - home with only four dol lars. Then he joined a wagoner once more, and soon found himself at Baltimore, where, • for the first time in his life he saw a ship. . As ho stood on the dock, gazing at the vessel with open eyes and mouth,bowildered at the.sight, one of the sailors accosted him and asked hint if he would not like to go to Liverpool " Forgetting his eugagetnent with the wagoner, lie . joyibily consented, • and rushed GS to the wagon to get his clothes,al though ten minutes before he did not know that there was such a thing as a ship in the world. The - Wagoner positively refused to let himgo. -Watching his chances , however, he bundled up _his Crothes, and started for the but it so chanced that in turning the corner of a crowded street, he came full upon his Master, who collared him and took bun back. Leaving his wagoner soon after, he start ed penniless, to work his way home. First. he worked a while •es a laborer, and, with the Eimer thus earned, he traveled a few miles towards East Tennessee. When his money was gone he would step and work again - for the first farmer who wanted him. °nee he bound himself as an apprentice too haLteF, fcir four years, and worked for a few months, aria ,the hatter failed, and he was homeiese once maze. At length, after two years' absence, ohe winter evening, he 'en tered his father's tavern with his bundle, and asked permission to sit down and rest. No ow, knew him. fits father, a somewhat in firm old man, was waiting upon his guests ; his mother Was cooking supper ; and his sis ter was Worithig about the house. Ile re mained silent Kir an hour,when,supper toeing ready, he was asked to come to the table, where, the light 'ailing upon his face, his sister recognized . him. The truant bad a joyful welcome, and kept the family late, re lating his adventures. Ile now sat to work in earnest, to assist his old father, to whom ho had not given much comfort hitherto. By six months' hard work he paid his father's debts, which had caused the old man much anxiety. Then he worked six months more to cancel a note of thirty dollars' whie.h• - his father had given, and brought it to his father as a present. Next, ho went to work for sundry other months until be had provided himself with a supply of decent clothing. Ile was now nearly twenty years' of age; and being much mortified with his inability to read and write, he made a bargain with a Quaker school master, agreeing to work two days fer every three that he attandedhis school. llepicked up knowledge rapidly, and after six months of this arrangement,he could read, write and cipher sufficiently well for the ordinary pur poses of life on the frontier. He now began to be extremely suscepti ble to the charms of the female sex. Mar riageable girls were as scarce on the frontier then as they now are in some parts ot Cali fornia and Oregon. Accordingly, a young fellow had to be prompt both st popping the question and in Milling his engagement. The first girl with whom he was smit ten was ayoung relative of his school master, but while be was courting her with the vigor and warmth of a backwoodsman, and flattering himself that his passion was returned, a wealthy suitor came along, and stowed hai r, before his eyes. He soon fell in loVe' ,at a bill, end, before the e n s= woo ished, be was engaged-to be , and a day was appo inted for him to announce the fact to the gir l's parents. On the appointed day he started for the young lady s .abcide, but falling in oa - the way with a gay party, he spent the whole night in • frolic ; and when,' the next moni ed the house of his lady love, 11= P ur aa l tat she was to be' married that -tit °another seen. His:siding Whip 1, -e s=ottitis hand; his jaw fell; and be est on Walters. staring wilily at his.inform ant. serecoteredhilspirits,however,went to the Wedding, and danced all night, the merriest of the merry: He was soon In love again, over head and ears, - and in due time was happily married. - H lived a while with his wife's mother, worked a little, and hunted a great deal, for his subsistence. After two years, he set up his own cabin on Elk River, where he culti vated a few acres for his bread, and ranged the forest for his meat. The Creek war, in 1813, summoned the yoeman of Tennessee to arms under General Jackson. No young man, of them all was prompter to take the field than David Crock ett. Ile was in most of the' principal en gagements tinder General Jackson, and if ho obtained leave of absence, he soon tired of the monotony of home, and was off again to the army. He was the life of the camp. His Dutch anecdotes, his bear stories, his won derful shooting, his fortitude and courage made him a universal favorite. The war over, he removed his little family one hundred and fifty miles to the West and settled in the midst of a wilderness 40 miles distant from the nearest settlement. There he built his cabin, due his well, cleared his corn-field, and•lived the life of a pioneer in Its perfection. His skill and courage in hunt ing the deer, the panther and the bear, were wonderful indeed ; and I only wish the short est of his bear stories were too long to be inserted here. - Years pissed on. The country filled up with settlers. The fame of David Crockett as a hunter, story teller and general good fellow spread tar and wide,and at last he found himself elected to the Legislature. So popu lar was be in the Legislature, that in 1824 he was set up as an anti-tariff candidate for Congress and was only beaten by two votes in a district of seventeen counties. At the next election lie was returned by the extra ordinary majority of twenty-seven hundred votes. At Washington, he was a conspicuous per sonage, for his fame had preceded him, and he was perhaps the only genuine pioneer and backwoodsman that ever sat in Congress. He was a member four years, and would, no doubt, have been again elected, if he had not differed with his old commander, Fred dentjackson, on removing the Cherokees. He ound, at the next election, that Andrew Jackson was too strong for him. He was de feated, and soon after, joined in the move ment, by General Houston, which was de signed to sever Texas from Mexico, and an nex it to the United States. His exploits in Texas were as romantic as any which have been related. Ile was caught at length, - -.in a fort garrisoned by a hundred and forty Texans, and when it was invested by a Mexican Army of two thous and. Never was a place more valiantly de-' fended. After ten• days of conflict and starv ation, every man of the garrison had per !shed except six, one of whom was Colonel Crockett. These six heroes then surrendered to Santa Anna, the dastardly traitor and coward, who commanded the Mexican army. This base wretch, so far from being touched by the heroism of Col. Crockett, ordered him to be murdered, and the gallant pioneer fell pierced with ddozen swords. This Is the merest outline of a life so full of strange and romantic adventure that if it could be fully and truly written would at tract intuit a io n n vteos o at tex e i r on u . and be a pe a rm b nen c t worthy the pen of an Irving or a Cooper. Nor York Ledger. A MOTHER'S INFLUENCE. Mother's Manners Mould the Child. There is no disputing this fact—it shines in the face of everylittle . child. The coarse, bawling, scolding woman will .have -coarse vicious, bawling, fighting children. She who cries on every occasion, I'll box your ears—l'll slap your jaws—l'll break your neck, is known as thoroughly-through her children as if her unwomanly .man ner's were openly displayed in the public streets. These remarks were suggested by the con versation in a street car—that great institu tion for the students of' men and manners— _ between a friend and alschoolmaster. Our teacher was caustic, mirthful and sharp. His wit flashed like the polished edge of a dia mond, and kept the ear in a roar. The entire community of insiders—and whoever is intimate - with one of these con veyances can form a pretty good idea of our numbers, inclusive of the 'one more' so well known to the fraternity7turned their heads, eyes and ears one way, and finally our teacher said—"l can always tell the mother by the boy. The urchin who draws back with doubled fist and lunges at his playmate, has a very questionable mother. She may teed him and clothe him, cram him with sweetmeats, coax him with promises, but if she gets nand she fights. • "She will pull him by the jacket ; stie will give him a knock in the back ; she will drag him by the hair; she will call him all sorts of wicked names, while passion plays over her red face in lambent flames that curl and writhe out at the corners of her red eyes. "And we never see the courteous little fellow with &wood' locks and gentle man ner—in whom delicacy does not detract from courage or manliness, but we say that boy's mother is a true lady. Her words and ' ways are soft, loving and quiet. If she ge proves, herlanguage is 'my son'—not little wretch—yon plague of my life—you torment—you scamp!' "She hovers,before him as a pillar of light before the wandering Israelites, and her beams are reflected into his face. To him the word mother is synonymous with every thing that is pure, sweet and beautiful, Is he an artist? In after-life that which with the holy radiance shines on his canvas will be the mother's face. Whoever flits across hls path with sunny smiles and soft, low voice will bring 'mother's image', freshly to his heart 'She is like my mother, will be the 'highest weed of his praise. Not even when the hair turns silver and eye grows dim will the majesty of that life and presence desert him. "But the ruffian mother—alas, hat there are such—will dim the ruffian character of the man. Ile in turn will become a merci less tyrant, with a tongue sharper than a two edged sword, and remembering the brawling and cuffing, seek some meek, gentle victim for the sacrifice, with the condition that he I shall be master. And master he is for a few sad years, when he wears a widower's weed till lie finds a victim number two." We wonder not that there so many awk ward, ungainly men in society—they have all been trained by women who knew not nor cared for the holy nature of their trust. They had been made hitter to the heart's core, and that bitterness will find vent and lodgment somewhere. Strike the infant in anger and he will, if he cannot reach you, vent his passion by beating the door, the chair or any inanimate thing within reach. Strike him repeatedly, and by the time he wears- shoes he will have become a p.t bully, with hr.uig,t dopffile for fight as naturally as if especial painilikd been taken to teach 'bin} the art of boxing. ". " 3lothers,remember that yourpruaners mould the child. Who will not say that mothers ought to be thoroughly educated, whether Lbw sons are or not V TnosE familiar with the "handwrite" of the gentleman named will appreaate the following incident, reported by "Agate," In a Washington letter: "We have recently had a matrimonial warning to bad writers. General Este got married—late bat well. With pardonable modesty, he sought to have the announce ment in the morning papers free from titles, and so wrote it himself. It read, at such a time and by such a parson, "George Peabody Este," to so and so. The wretched printers couldn't conceive of a man in Washington without a title of some sort, and as the wri ting was had anyway, made the mestnaittral mistake in the world—supposed Este to be Esq., and printed it accordingly. - The friends of the fair bride were horrified the next morning at seeing that, instead of Mar rying the gallant anti handsome Cieneral Este, she had been united with some un known George Peabody, Esq. The Repub lican said so—the Chronicle said so--even. the Intelligencer, which is always semi-ofil cial or nothing, said so. It must be so." A FAUMBll . emplo3red a green and recently arrived importation from the Emerald Isle to plough. John had never seen a plow. Ms' master did not take that into the account sufficiently. "John,";said be, after starting the plough for him,'"do yon see that' red heifer yonder? Plough directly for her, arid lay out yonder land." Supposing that John would use common sense, ?Mien him to his own reflection and labor, :and betook ' his steps horaeward. At the close of the day, not bearing- from John, ho repaired to the field, and found he had literally ploug.hed for the red , heifbr all day, fbr he had been chasing the poor thing an over the field, and was busy still in his very dutiftil cattploy meat when his muter came in - sight. The field was marked with the furrows in OM Imaginable direction. ' • The spreading flamer. Se„r i s v Ga le Gossip Onee u: o i G n t:z e Gossip Two, wn, Old Mrs. Pry to me remarked- Smith bought his goods of Brown." Says Gossip Two to Gossip Three, Who cast her eyelids down, "I've heard it said, to-day, my friend, Smith got his goods from Brown." • Says Gossip Three to Gossip Four, With something of a frown, "I've heard strange things—what do you think? ' "suatb took his goods from Brown " NO. 27. Says Gossip volivto Gossip Five, Who blazed it round the town, "I've beard, to-day, soak shocking news-- Smith stole his goods from Brown." Wonders at home by familiarity cease to excite astonishment, and hence it happens that many know but little abort "the house we live in"—the human body. We look up on the house from the outside, jest as a - whole or unit, never thinking of the many rooms and passages in the ingenious internal ar rangements, or the wonderful structure of the man, the harmony and adaptation of all his parts. In the human skeleton, elxiut • the time of maturity are 105 bones. The muscles are about 500 in number. The length of the alimentary canal is about 32 feet. The amount of blood in adults averages SO pounds, or full one-fifth of the entire weight. The heart is 6 inches in length and 4 Inch es in diameter, and beats 70 times a minute, 4,200 times per hour, 100,800 times per dsy, 35,772,000 per year, 2,565,440,000 to three lcore and ten, and at each beat two and a half. ounces of blood are thrown out of it, and 173 ounces per minute, 656 pounds per dsy. All the blood in the body passes through the heart in three minutes. This little organ, by its ceaseless industry, "In the allotted span ' The Psalmist garb to man," lifts the enormous• weight of 370,700,200 tons. The lungs will contain about one gallon of air at their usual degree of inflation. We breathe, on an average, 1,200 times per hour, inhale 000 gallons of air. 24,400 gallons per day. The aggregate surface of the air cells' of the lungs exceeds 20,000 square inches, an area very nearly equal to the floor of a room twelve feet square. The average weight of the brain cif an adult male is :3 pounds and S ounces; of a female, 2 pounds and 4 ounces. The nerves .; are all connected with it directly, or by the spinal marrow. These nerves, together with their branches and' ramifications, probably exceed 10,000,000 in number, forming a "bodyguard" outnumbering by far the great est army ever marshalled. The skin is composed of three layers and varies from one-fourth to one-eighth of an Inch la thickness. Its average area in an adult is estimated to be 2,000 square inches. The atmospheric pressure being about 14 pounds to the square inch, a pet-son of medi- JIM size is subject to a pressure of 40,000 lbs. Pretty tight hug.. Each square inch -of skin contains 3,500 sweating tubes, or prespiratory pores, each of which may be likened to a little drain tile one-fourth of an inch long, making an aggre gate length on the entire surface of the body of 101,160 feet, or a tile-ditch for draining the body almost 40 miles long. Man is made marvelously. Who is eager to havestigate the curious, to witness the TVOl dertul works of Omnipotent Wisdom? Let him' not wander the wide world around to seek them, but examine himself; "The prop er study of mankind is man." Rosseau said that no woman with fine teeth could be ugly. Any female mouth with a good set of teeth, is kissable. • The top ear ly loss of the first teeth has an unfavorable Influence upon the beauty and duration of the second. The youngest should accord ingly be made to take care of ,them. All that is necessary is to brush them several times a day with a little ordinary soap or magnesia and water. After eating, the particles of food should be carefully removed from the teeth by means of a toothpick of quill or wood, but never of metal, and by a thread passed now and then between the teeth. C.unpfiorated and acid tooth powders are injurious both to the enamel and the gums, and if employed, every particle should be removed from the - mouth by carefully rinsing. The habit which some ladies have of using a bit of lem on, though it may whiten the teeth and give temporary firmness and color to the glans, is fatal to the enamel, as are all acids. No one, young or old, should turn their jaws into nut crackers ; and it is even dan gerous for women to bite ott, as they often do, the ends of the thread in sewing. It is not Safe to bring very hot food or drink, es pecially if immediately followed anything cold, in contact with the teeth. PERSUMHON BETTER THAN FoncE.—Deal gently with', those who stray. Draw them back by love and persuasion. A kiss is worth alhousand kicks. A kind word is more val uable to the lost than a mine of gold. Think of this, and be ou your guard, ye who would chase to the grave an erring. brother. We must study the gentlest manner and softest seasons of address; our folviee must not fall like a violent storm, bearing down and making those to droop whom it is intended to cher ish and refresh. It must descend as the dew on the tender herb, or like melting flakes of snow ; the softer it falls the longer it dwells upon and the deeper it sinks into the mind. If there are a few who have the humility to receive advice as they ought, it Is uti&ri be. ,cause there are a few who have the discre tion to Convey it in the proper way, and who can qualify the harshness and bitterness of reproof, against which human nature is apt to revolt. To probe the wound to the bot tom, with all the boldness and resolution of a good spiritual surgeon, and yet with all tti.;) delicacy and tenderness of a friend, requires a very dexterous and mAsterly hand. An -affable deportment and complacency of be hilyiogr will disarm the most obstinate, wlereas, if, instead of calmly pointing out their mistakes, we break out into unseemly sallies of passion, we cease to have any influ ence.
