lENT PILLS, which ale a Medicine of
great value to the afflicted, discovered by
O. P. HARLICH, a celebrLted physician at
Altdorf, Germany, which has been used with
unparalleled success throughout Germany.
This Medicine consists of two kinds, viz:
the C ERMAN A P RIEN T, and the
COMPOUND SI'RENE'IHENINGTO
NIC PILLS. They are each put up in
small packs, and should both be used to
effect a permanent cure. Those who are
afflicted would do well to make a trial of thi

GERMAN APERIENT PILLS are to
cleanse the stomach and purify the BLOOD
The Tonic or STRENGTHENING PILLS
are to STRENGTHEN and invigorate the
nerves and digestive organs and give tone to
the Stomach, as all diseases originate from
impurities of the BLOOD and disordered
Stomach. This mode of treating diseases is
pursued by all practical PHYSICIANS,
which experience has taught them to be the
'only remedy to effect a cure. They are not
only recommended and prescribed by the
most experienced Physicians in their daily
practice, but alsotaken by those gentlemen
themselves whenever they feel the symp
toms of those diseases, in which they know
them to be efficacious. This is the case in
all large cities in which they have an ex
ensi ve sale. It is not to be understood that
these medicines will cure all diseases mere
by purifying the blond—this tiny will not
do; but they certainly will, and sufficient
authority of daily proofs asserting that those
medicines, taken as recommended by the di
rections w hich accompany them, will cure a
great majority of diseases of the stomach,
lungs and liver, by which impurities of the
blood are occasioned.

ODE 'l'o S"1 ONE CREEK.
Old Stone Creek's shores are sweet to view,
With moss and wild fhwer crown'tlk
And richly dcck'd in robes of green,-
Her banks are ever found.
Whilst standing nn her lofty cliffs,
You view this lovely stream ;
Fancy would whisper as it pass'd,
'Twas but a lurch• dream.
The crystal brooks, that to her side
In gentle murmurs play;
As down her cliffs they shelving glide,
Are lovely as the day.
The Mach, where the robin buildl—
The hemlock and the pine—
The stately oak with lofty top—
The ivy and the vine.
The rocks, the trees, the towering
The pine trees, dark and high,
Whose slender tops of ever green
Seem close against the sky.
The hills outstretching far and Wide,
Are lovely to be scut,•'
The fun ne'er shed a put er ray,
Than lights thy vallies green.
Yet, lonely must those hills be made... ,
That sun must set in gore,
Ere footsteps of vile Masonry,
Imprint fair Stone Creek's shore !
The apron of the bloody lodge—
The compass and the square,
Shall ne'er infest fair Stone Creek's land,
Nor hold their meetings there.
Nor Martin Van, nor Davy R.,
With purse, and sword, and spear
Can ne'er dismay thy honest sons,
Nor hold their hearts in tear.
Should e'cr this Loco Foco host
Insult old Stolle Creek fair,
We'll meet them on her rocky coast,
Ar.d gather laurels there.
For oh! old Stone Creek's sons are free;
Their banner streams in air,
And limuttsot4 and liberty,
Is new the watch—word there.
The war worn hero of North Bend,
To us is ever dear;
With him we'll follow on our caurse,
No dangers will we fear.
Then let this flag a nerve impart
To every patriot's hand—
Let it inspire each valiant heart,
Till oughout fair Stone Creek's land
Till Harrison and Tyler too,
Their country's call obey,
And snatch from each vile Tory's hand,
The po Ner he would betray.
Then shouls from all thy freedom sons,
Shall rend the air as one,
And cheers to TYLER fill her vales,
And cheers to HARRISON.

On Pride•
hubs; tray be considered one of the
strongest passions or emotions of the hu
man mind ; but we more frequently see it
united with ignorance, than with good
sense. There is a portion of pride, ne
cessary to the preservation of the human
'character, but, when it is carried to an
extent beyond that medium, it becomes
disgusting in the sight of modesty and
hu
tnility, and never tails to render the pos
sessor contemptible in the eyes of the
chaste and uncorrupted. Adversity is
necessary to the state of man, to prevent
that red undance of pompous pride or,inde
pentium°, and to reduce that plethora of
the soul, by which he forgets the true
source from whence his blessings flow—
prosperity continued, soon wraps him up
in his own conscious greatness; and he
disdains the humble avocations of ofnr
ing up thanks:to that Being who has strew
ed his path with plentiful abundance, and
given hint the means lay which he may be
happy. What is man ?ishe a being of
celestial origin, and are the destinies of
time and eternity in his own hand did
he command creation to be framed from
nothing, and did it obey ? or did be say
let there be light, and immediately light
sprang up ? did he snatch that flaming
sphere—the sun—from the dark caverns
of chaos, and hurl it with preponderous
arm, to be fixed for ages in the vast
wil
derness of the Universe 7 I say, did he
• bid order and regularity to prevade the
immensity of space. 7 and did he form
those immutable laws which every where
exist, throughout the vast profound of na
ture's arcand? No, he did not; en far
from having the sceptre in his own hands,
he was formed after the great fabric of
t he Universe was framed. Ile has but
one circumstance' connected with his for
mation of which he may boast, which is,
that he was made in the image of his great
architect, the Sovereign of the Universe.
Man is but a worm—He is superior to the
different orders and gennera"which sur
round him, in point of intellectual reason,
but like them he falls by the winter of age,
by casualties, by disease, and by many
other frailties incident to animal matter.
He is seen no more on earth. Scarcely
has he embarked on the tempestuous
waves of time, before the current turns
from the course which he was pursuing,
and finally lands him with all his boasted
greatness, on the uuknown shore of an
awful eternity.
From the moment he makes his en
trance on the stage of action, he is gradu
ally undergoing the process of decay,
and hastening along, without perceiving
his rapidity, to a final dissolution.
The particles of nature, or the atomic
portions of animal matter, me continual
ly changing, and the same flesh which
covers his bones to-day, will, in the
course of a small space of time, be enti
rely carried away by the astonishing pro
cess of nature; and be hnperceptibl: r re•
placed by a new formation. Thus lie is
ever changing, until the final scene of
life is closed—when he is given up a prey
to the insects of the earth; and there to be
transformed, and his semblance lost in
the clods of the valley
How hu ululating the thought; shall
man then presume to be proud of that
body which is destined to be the food of
loathsome worms? surely not. He is
but a traveller on this terraryueous ball,
and already are the shades of evening be
ginning to gather round him, and the darl ,
mantle of night will envelope the torch of
day, upon which he is delightea to gaze:
It is the night of death; soon will he cease
'to behold the dazzling forms of youth
dance in festivity around hint, and soon
will he cease to hear the sweet melody of '
music, or the song of the warbler in the
solitary grove—scenes which delight and
scenes which inspire, will be shut out
from his vision forever. Nor is it the
hoary age alone which is doomed to this
melancholy catastrophe. The tender
flower of youth is alien laid prostrate by
the keen edged scythe of time, and con•
igned to the sold embrace of death. No
age, sex or c ondttion are exempt, but all
Hurrah, Bcc,
alike are buried in the dust. Let us ap-
Proach the repository of the dead, and
seek there
_for distinction. There is the
tomb of the ambitious man, whose aspi
ring soul onco plunged a nation in wo,
and whose name is written in human
blood upon the 'tablet of remembrance,
handed down to posterity. But behold
here he lies in his own insignificance.
Here is the grave of the proud man, who
considered himself superior to his fellow
mortals, and looked down with degrading
contempt upon those who were equal
by the ties of nature.
What is presented now? Let us wrench
the firm portals which lock him from the
sight, and search after the ditnrence be-
tweon him and the beggar at his side.
Ah ! what an appalling spectacle his re
mains present to the astonished sight. A
ghastly skeleton is all that is left, and ev
en that cannot be recognised to have be-
longed to so boastful a being. See, his
bones are beginning to crumble into dust,
and then, where will be the proof that he
ever
.existed on the earth? None, none
' will then be found. He will have retur
ned to his mother earth, and his pride all
forgotten, The sporting school boy will
pass by his grave regardless of his great
ness, and cull the daisy that decks the!
plain. A short space is allotted to his
relics in this solitary ground, and the
same space is given to the pauper, who
slumbers at his side. Miserable thought
to the proud man, but alas! he dare not
deny it. There in his sight, sleeps the
skull which was once filled with as many
utopian dreams as that which gazes with
vacant stare upon it. Heart rending idea
to the proud man, he there views that
state to which his own frame must be sub
jected, which he now thinks is too good,
almost, to tread the earth beneath him.
I Thus sleeps the great Alexander, and thus
slumbers the immortal Ceasar,—Their
Ipride :could not retrieve their fall, and
their boasted superiority could not escape
the yawning jaws of the grave. Death
is no respecter of persons, but devours
without remorse, his millions at a meal,
and slays youth, beauty, pride and gran
deur; nor casts a single glance on his in
' discriminate choice. What rivers of
ing tears have swept their course from
the eyes of relatives, for the loss of their
dearest friends. Pride was carried away
' at the deluge, and its brother ambition,
sunk at his side. There is not a single
' day swallowed up in the vortex of time.
that does not carry with it to the vast lab•
yrinth of eternity, the lives of thousands
of the human family. Where is pride in
this deathly famine; alas! it is destined to
fill the famished maw of death.
The brilliant eye, the blooming cheek,
and the blushing lips of beauty, arc all
destined to perish in the silent gloom of
the grave. How strong is the admonition
to improve the mind, and prepare it for
the enjoyment of eternal felicity, instead
of lavishing on the frail body of dust, th e
gaudy trappings of earthy vanity which
vanish into nothing the moment that
death lays his cold hand on the warm
brow of beauty. Thus we see that prid e
is unbecoming such frail mortals, and
when lile comes to a conclusion, we ar e
convinced of its vanity.
Let not the reader say that I give hu
mility in words, and immorality in deeds ,
for his own reason will teach him that I
write the truth, and that unpolluted by th e
golden gloss of fascinating fiction. Go,
ask the grave—go, ask the slumberer
wrapped in his cold damp shroud—go,
ask the sleeping warrior, who once scat
tered nations, and at whose command em
pires trembled, and t hey will tell thee,
as with a voice of thunder, the vanity
apd insignificance of all human pride.

A TRUE STORY
There lived sonic years ago, in the
town of , in Connecticut, a man
who was much addicted to the practice of
cm,verting his neipbor's property to his
own use and benefit, without 'if ' or 'and.'
The clergyman of the town suspecting
him of making too free with his hay, had
one night concealed himself in his barn
with a dark lantern. The thief soon ap
peared, and tying up a large bundle, had
just left the premises, when the Reverend'
owner, instead of bawling out, 'You scoun
drel you! what do you mean by stealing
my hay?' disengaged the candle from the
lantern and dexterously applied it to the
combustible load. The bundle was soon
in a bright blaze, and the unlucky fellow,
suspecting he was pursued by some per.
son with a light, laid his feet to the ground
with uncommon agility, But it was in
vain to escape the pursuing fire. The
blaze increasing brighter as he ran, seem.;
ed to his terrified imagination to come
nearer, till venturing to look around, to
discover the extent of his danger, he per
ceived to his astonishment, that his stolen
hay was on fire. How it came so, pox.
zled him not a little. But the conscious
guilt assisted his natural credulity, he set
tled down upon the conclusion that the
fire was sent from heaven, to admonish
him of his trangression. Full of this alar
ming notion, he gave himself no rest until
he had gone to the parson, and made con
fession of his crime, and related the war
ning from heaven. The Reverend gen
tleman humored his credulity, under the
idea that it might reform his life. He was
not mistaken; for the blazing hay made so
deep an impression on the fellow's mind,
that from henceforth he forsook his evil
course, became a valuable member of so
ciety, and was united to tl.e flock of the
judicious clergyman who had assisted so
materially in his reformation. He finally
died an honest man, in the firm belief of
time interposition of providence in setting
fire to the stolen hay. The parson kept
the secret till the poor man was laid in
the dust, but then even the clerical tongue
could no longer resist the desire of com
municating so serious an incident.
ROME,
What is home? a magic word--a sound
that falls upon the ear like the strain of a
lute as it is borne out on the evening air.
What is home? Ask the mariner as he
rucks upon the tossed deep. His time
worn brow softens; and as he points to the
dim line where the sea and cloud blend
together he tells you 'There!' and that by
the roaring reef and in the howling storm,
he bethinketh himself of home ; the belo
ved spot which lies not on the welcome
lee; and sighs. Ask the classic youth who
just free from his Alma Mater, roams over
the wide spreading prairies or climbs the
mountains of the west, overlooking far
reaching vales, and exhausted horizon at
ter horizon; ask him if he thinks of home,
and he will tell you that each returning
evening speaks oft; and as he turns his
eyes to the cloud, that tinged by the fare
well rays of the departed sun hangs far in
the east, and seems in imagination to sleep
over the place of his birth, he is in an in
stant there. 0 sacred, breathing thought.
The soul is lost in a sea of memory :
Dwelling, grove, and solemn forest are
animated. Scene alter scene, associa
tions come rushing upon the mind, and in
a moment his past life comes back upon
him. Who forgets the parent's last look:
the parting kiss—the loved one's tear?
The splendid mansion, or lowly cottage--
fertile plain, or barren rock; all are hal
lowed as we look back upon them through
a vista of years. It may be that the loot.
prints of decay are there ; that the village
church is crumbling, the walls of that
dwelling sinking to ruin ; but wherever
the wild grass waves over the graves of
our sires, there hone is, there we began to
live, there we love to linger.
BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT,
The following beautiful extract is from
Gallagher's liesperian, a monthly publica
tion, issued in Cincinnati, Ohio:
'Young womanhood! the sweet moon
I,n the horizon's verge; a thought matu
red, but not uttered —a conception warm
and glowing, yet not embodied—the rich
halo which precedes the rising sun— the
rosy down that bespeaks the ripening
reach—a flower—
A flower which is not QUITE a flower,. •
Yet is nu more a bud.'
Upon this the Sunday News makes the
following capital parody:
"Young womanhood: molasses touched
with a little brimstone—spread on bread
not buttered—a being all joints and an
gles not tilled out--an unformed fiirm, -
deformed by stays--a pallid thing . that
loves the ripening peach--a young WO
11Ian—
•.\ woman which is not quITE a woman.
Yet something more nor •a gal.' "
