    WI Broken Heart.
"People talk an everlasting sight of
I.i %sense about wine, women and horses.
I've bought and sold 'em all, I've traded
in all of them, and I tell you, there aint
one in a thousand that knows a grain
about either on 'ern. You hear folks say
Oh, such a man is an ugly grained critter,
he'll break his wife's hear; jist as if a
woman's heart was as brittle as a pipe
Valk. The female heart, as far as my ex
perience goes, is jist like a new Indian
rubber aloe; you may pull at it, till it
streaches out a yard long, and then let go
and it will fly right back to its old shape.
Their hearts are made of stout leather, 1,
tell you; there's a plaguy sight of wear in
'e i. 1 never knowed but one case of a
broaken heart, and that was in t'other
sex, one Washington Banks. He was a
sacezer. lie was tall enough to spit
down on the heads of your grenadiers;
and near about high enough to wade across
Charlestown river, and as strong as a tow
boat. I guess he was somewhat less
than a foot longer than the morral law
and catechism too. He was a perfect pic
ture of a man; you could'nt felt him in no
Vehicular; he was so just a made critter,
folks used to run to the window when he
pissed, and say there goes Washington
Banks, hunt he lovely? I do believe
there was'n t a gal in the Lowell factories
that warnt in love with him. * *„
Well, when I last seed him, he was all
skin and bone, like a horse turned out to
die. Ile was tee-totally detleohed, a
mere walkin skeleton I am dreadful sorry
says I, to see you, Banks looking so peeck
ed; why you look like a sick turkey hen,
all legs; what on arth ails you? I am
dyin, says he, of a broaken heart, What ,
says I, have the gals been jilting you? No
no, gays he, I beant such a fool as that
neither. Well says I, have you made a
bad speculatien? No, says he, shakin
'his head, I hope I have too mach clear ;
tin me to take on so bad for that,
at under the sun is it then? said 1
says he, 1 made a bet the fore part
of summer, with Leftenant Oby Knowles,
that /could shoulder the best bower of
the Constitution frigate. I won my bet
but the anchor was so eternal heavy that
it brook my heart. Sure enough he died
that very fall, and he was the only in
stance I ever heerd tell of a broaken
heart.— (Me Cloelemaker.
The Rich Ran's Daughter.
The following judicious and sensible
reflections are from a tale of the title,
written by E. Holden, Esq. one of the ed
itors of -the Philadelphia 13aturday Cou
rier:
"It is often said that times arc strange
ty altered; and certain it is the people are.
It was once thought honorable to labor to
be cor stantly engaged in some active and
useful avocation—but now-a -days it is
thought honorable to be idle. There is a
complaint of the high prices of the neces
saries of humtn existence, and with much
truth. But if the amount of idleness
could be calculated with mathematical
accuracy throughout our extended repub
lic, allowing the drones only half price for
the services they might perform, which
Otters arc paid for, it might not be an un.
vele calculation to put down the whole
amount now paid for provisions and mar
keting in the United States. Is it not a
little inconsistent to hear parents whine
about the price of provisions, while they
bring up their daughters to walk the stieetsi
and expend money.
In one of the great commercial cities
there resides a gentleman worth from
two to three millions of dollars. He had
three daughters and he required them
alternately to go into the kitchen and su
perintend its domestic concerns. Health
and happiness, he said, were thus promo
ted—besides, in the vicissitudes of for
tune, that they might not, ere they should
close their earthly career, be compelled to
tele on their hands for a livlihood; and he
could say that they never could become
wives and the proper heads of a family,
until they knew, by practical experience,
all the economy of household affars. One
of those daughtars is now the wife of a
Governer of one of the states—all at the
head of very respectable families—and
and they carry out the principles implan
ted by their very worthy parent—win
ning and securing the esteem of all around
them.
Let the fair daughters of our country
draw lessons from the industrious mat
rons of the past. The companions of the
men who fought in the revolution, were
inured to hardships and accustomed to
unceasing toil—and so did they educate
their daughters. Health, contentment,
happiness and plenty, smiled around the
family alter. The damsel who under
stood most thoroughly and economically
the management of domestic matters, and
who was not afraid to put her hands into
a wash tub, for fear of destroying their
elasticity and dimming their snowy white
ness, was sought by the young men of
those days as a fit companion for life—
but now.a•days to learn the mysteries of
the household, would makp our fair ones
feint away, and to labor comes not into
the code of modern gentility."
A GOOD RETORT.—. Lyne Stephens
was wending his way, some time ago,
through a narrow passage, when he met a
pretty modest girl:
"Pray, my dear," said he, what do you
call this passage?
"lialaain's passage" replied the girl.
"Ah then," continued the puppv—'l
am like lialaam—sloped by an angel."
"And I," rejoined the girl, as she push
es' past him, "eiz like tilt angel stopped
b'y all aid." ,

Digt ontent.
• How universal it is.- —We never yet
. kn , -w the man who could say, "I am con
-1 tented." Go where you will, among rich
or poor, the man of competence or the
I man who earns his bread by the daily
sweat of his brow, you hear the sound of
mourning and the voice of complaint.
The other day we stood by a cooper, who
was playing a merry tune around the cask
—"all," said he, "mine is a hard lot, for
ever trotting round like a dog, driving
way at a hoop."—"Heighe," sighed a
blacksmith, in one of the hot slays, as he
wiped the drops of perspiration from his I
brow, while the red hot iron glowed on
his anvil—"this is life with a vengeance!
melting and trying one's self over a bur
ning fire." 'Oh that I was a carpenter,"
ejaculated a shoe-maker, as he bent over
his lap stone, "here am I day after day,
wearing my soul away in making soles for
others, cooped up in a little 7 by 9 room."
"Heigho! 1 m sick of this out door work,"
exclaims the carpenter, "broilieg unier a
sweltering sun, or exposed to the inclem
encies of the weather, if I were only a tai
lor!" "This is too bad!" perpetually
cries the tailor, "to be compelled to sit
perched up here, playing the needle all
the time; would that mine was a more
active life." "Last day of grace, banks
won't pay, what shall I do!" grumbles
the merchant. '-I had rather be a truck
horse, a dog, any thing!" "Happy fel
lows!" groans the lawyer, as he scratches
his head over some perplexing case, or
pores °vet some dry, musty record, "hap
py fellows, I hail rather hammer stone
than cudgel my brains on this tedious
question." And so through all. the ram
ifications of society, all are complaining of
their condition, finding fault with their
peculiar calling. If I were only this or
that, or the other, I should be con tent, is
the universal cry, any thing but what I am.
So wags the world, so it has wagged, and
so it will wag.

ENERGY OF CHARACTER.
Energy of character is the philosopher's
stone of this life, and should be engraved
upon every heart. It is that which has
peopled the temple of fame—that which
has filed the historic pages with great
and the civil anti military world—that
which has brought a race from barbarism
drawn the veil from science, and devel
oped the wondrous powers of Nature.
It makes men great and makes them rich.
—First or last, it brings success.—With
out it. Webster would have been a New
Hampshire lawyer--'rom Ewing a buck
eye salt boiler —and Ben Franklin a jour
nyman printer. Without it, Demosthe
nes would have stammered on to his grave,
and Ciucinnatus died a common soldier.
Shakespear would have been shot for
poaching—Pope died selling tape.—Ros
coe lived selling beer "by the small"..—
and Napoleon gone out of the world a
Corsican bully. With it, each one has
not only done much good for himself,
much for his day and generation —but
much for the world in the past, the pre-,
sent, and the future.
Energy of character will do the same
'thing fur any man, in a small way that it
has done for those. Give the lawyer en—
ergy of character, and he will succeed
at the bar without talent. It is the se
cret by which the merchant, the artist,
the scholar, and the mechanic, arrive at
distinction and wealth. If they tall once,
they try again—no contrary winds beat
them down—or, if down, they will not
stay down. The man who has energy of
character, will rise in spite of fortune and
in spite of opposition. Give a man ener
gy, and he is a made man, put him where
you will, and surround him by what you
will. It is this fact that gives us con&
(knee that the American people will rise
Irom their present depression as soon as
the blast has blown over that threw them
down. In defiance of the sub-treasuries,
suspensions, bad currency, and every,
other evil that malice and ignorance can
fix upon them, the People of this country,
have energy enough to rise and to prosper.
lie who gives up in despair, and cuts
away the sheets of his canvass, because
he find contrary winds in his passage, is a
poor navigator.

.Printer's Proverbs.
Never in quire thou of an Euitur for the
news; for behold tt is his duty at the ap
pointed time to give it unto thee without
asking.
When thou dolt write for his paper,
never say unto him. "What thinkest
thou of my piece?" for it may be that the
truth might offend thee.
It is not fit that thou shouldst 'ask of
him who is the author of an article; for
his duty requireit to keep such things to
himself.
When thou dost enter into a printing of
fice, have care to thyself that thou Most
not touch the type, for thou mayest cause
the printer much trouble .
Look not at the copy which is in the
hands of the compositor; for that is not
meet in the sight of the printer.
— Neither examine thou the proof sheet,
for it is not ready to meet the eye, that
thou mayest understand it.
Prefer the town paper to any other;
subscribe immediately for it and pay in

and thy little ones.

The "Key of Death?,
In the collection of curiosities preser
ved in the Arsenal at Venice, there is a
key, of which the following hingular tra
diti ti is relatedt
1 "About the yearl6oo, one of these dan
gerous men,in whom extraordinary talent
is the only tearful source of crime and
wickedness beyond that of ordinary men,
came to establish himself as a merchant or
trader in Venice. The stranger, whose
name was Tebaldo, became enamoured of
the daughter of an ancient house, already
aflinanced to another. lie demanded her
in marriage, and was of course rejected.,
Enraged at this, he studied how to be re
venged. Profoundly skilled in the me
chanical arts, he allowed himself no rest
until he had invented the most formidable
weapon which could be imagined. This
was a key of a large size, the handle of
which was so constructed, that it could be
turned round with little difficulty. When
turned it discOvered a spring, which, on
pressure, launched front the other end a
needle or lancet of such subtle fineness,
that it entered into the flesh and buried
itself there without leaving external trace,
Tahaldo waited in disguise, at the door of
the church in which the maiden whom he
loved was about to receive the nuptial
benediction. The assassin sent the slen
der steel, unperceived into the breast of
the bridegroom. The wounded man had
no suspicion of injury, but, seized with
sudden and sharp pain in the midst of the
ceremony, he fainted, and was carried to
his house amid the lamentations of the
bridal party. Vain was all the skill of
the phisicians, who could not divine the
cause of this strange illness, and in a few
days he died.
Tebaldo ag ain demanded the hand of
the maiden rom her parents, and receiv
ed a second refusal. They toe perished
miserably in a few days. The alarm
which these deaths, which appeared al
most miraculous, occasioned, excited the
utmost vigilance of the magistrates; and
when on close examination ofthe bodies,
the small instrument was found in the
gangrened flesh, terror was universal: ev
, ery one feared for his own life. The
maiden, thus cruelly orphaned, had pas
sed the first month of her mourning in a
convent, when Tebaldo, hoping to bend
her to his will, entreated to speak with
her at the gate. 'rhe face of the foreign
er had been ever displeasing to her, but
since the death of all those most dear to
her, it had become odious, (as though she
had a presentiment of his guilt,) and her
reply was must decisive in the negative.
Tebaldo, beyond himself with rage. at
tempted to wound her through the grits
and pucceeded; the obscurity of the place
prevented this movement from being oh•
served.
On her return to her room the maiden
felt a pain in her breast and uncovering it
she found it spotted with a single drop of
blood.
The pain increased, the surgeons who
hastened to her assistace, taught by the
past, wasted no time in conjecture, but
cutting deep, into the wounded part ex
tracted the needle before any rnortalinis -
chief had commenced 4 saved the life of
the lady. The state inquisition used ev
ery means to discover the hand which delt
these insidious blows. The visit of Te"
baldo to the convent caused suspicion to
fall heavily upon him. His house was,
'discovered,searched, the infamous weapon
and he perished on a gibbet.

¶R, Wm. EVANS' AMOMiLE
PlLLS—Happy would it have been for
many p ns, of Mi. soxes, who are now
in the silent grave, if they had learned to ,
;heck the morbid tendencies of their stom ,
achs and bowels, by these pure Tonic and
Aperient Pills, manufactured by Dr, Wm.
Evans, of New York, wlthent restoring to
• quack remedies, the names of which are
concealed and ut which they know nothin*
That dreadful scourge, CONSUMPTION,
might hate been checked in its commence,
mem, and disappointed of Its prey, all over
the la •d, if th; first symtoms of Nervous
Debility, had been counteracted by CAM-
OMILE, chemically prepared, and those
bowel complaints, which lead to a host of
fatal maladies, might have been obviated
by that tine alkaline extract of libubarift
which is a leading ingredient in the Ape*
ent Family Pills. Before both of thcise med
icines, which are adapted to a majority of
the purposes for will h a hundred others
are unnenessarily us d, fevers, agaes, bil
ious disorders, headache, female debility,
male decline ; indigestion, and liver com
plaint, would have entirely disappated,
where many of them hate proved fatal,
tr!RE M A . L . E S who si•e troubled with
sick headache, faintingS, or giddiness,
palpitation of the heart; lowness of spirits,
loss of appetite, pain in the side, general do'
bility, or 'bodily weakness, rejections of food,
&c., may be effectually restored to health
by using Dr. EVANS' CAMOMILE TO ,
NIC and FAMILY APERIENT PILLS,
which are invariably recommended by all
those that have used the invaluable medi
cine. Perseverance in the use of this inval
uable madicine, Mill undoubtedly effect a
cure even in the most acute or obstinate
diseases, but in such cases the dose may be
augmented according to the inveteracy o f
the disease; these Pills b2ing so admirably
adapted to the constitution, that they may
be taken at all times and under any circum
stances.
