POETRY.
The Captured Pickerel.
'Twas on Seymour's Pond one morning—one
mot ning in May,
That 1 floated in a little skiff within a quiet
hay;
Red light was on the hill tops, and darkness
in the vale,
When I fixed a line for pickerel—for picke
rel to trail.
1 confess it—l confess it—l had killed a green
ish frog,
While croaking unsuspectingly to his breth
ren of the bog ;
My spring hooks, bought at Messer's, were
secured to twisted wire,
And on these I hooked the morsel to which
pickerel aspire.
Around me were the leaves of the yellow wa
ter lillies,
Music reached me from the shore, where a
little purling rill is ;
The sunbeams kissed the forest, and the
breezes kissed the lake,—
But what is that? —a pickerel: I knew it by
its wake.
Then I flung my baited hook as far—as far
as it would go,
For there we use no fishing rods--no fishing
rods yuu know ;
A dark form followed up the bait, while blow
I baul'd it in—
And I knew it was a pickerel by the motion
of its all I
It turned and sailed away, while again I
threw the hook—
But when I pulled again, by George! by-y
George! the bait he took!
He gorged the dainty morsel with the action
of a shark,
Then, showing flakes, he sought the depths
as a bullet seeks its mark.
When the pickerel met that evening iq the
lily pads—
The scaly sires and grandsires, and the little
pickerel lads—
They called the muster over, but one an
swered not the call—
'Twas the hungriest, and the biggest, and the
fattest of them all!
MISCELLANEOUS.
The Ringlet .
A cheerful fire blazed on the hearth, in'
the neat little parlor of Mr. Percy, one'
cool evening in November, and Helen,
with a choice party of young friends, form
ed an agreeable little circle around it.—
'Helen Percy was not what the world
would call handsome, that is she did not
possess regular features—had neither black
nor blue eyes—tresses waning gracefully
over her shoulders--nor a skin quite as
white as the new fallen snow,—but then
there was beauty in her face, and a beauty
that was richly worth all these—it con
sisted of expression. The feelings of a
good and benevolent heart, aided by the
grace of a pure and well cultivated
cast a lustre over a face that could boast
of no other accomplishment, and sure none
other was necessary to render it interest
ing. But Helen's most pix.verful charm
was in her conversation. often sprightly,
and always sensible and pleasing, it ren
dered her ever a most engaging compan
ion.
It was generally known among her ac
quaintances, that she was betrothed to a
young navy officer who was then, and
had been nearly two years, absent in the
United States service, and who was now
daily expected home. Helen was anx
ious for his arrival, not for the gratifica
tion of her own affectionate feelings alone
but the tale of scandal had gone forth, and
she wished its course at once arrested,—
An amiable and worthy young man was
in the habit of visiting at the house of Mr.
Percy , he knew of Helen's engagement,
and his visits to the family were prompted
by friendship alone ; but others thought
differently ;—persons were surprised that'
in the absence of Calrence Lee, she would
sanction the address of another--it was
dishon arable thus to traffic with his feel.
ings—in short, she was in their eyes a
most heartless coquette. Helen knew'
these wispers were around her, but she
knew also that she was wronged ; she de
spised the petty artifices of those who
could construe every friendly feeling into
accepted love ; she was resolved'it should
not be the means of depriving her of a
friendship so valuable as that of the inno
cent mover of it all.
I remarked that a small group were as
sembled round the fireside of Mr. Percy's
house, and on this occasion a stranger
seated among them, who had entered with l
the company, and yet appeared to be un.l
known to all ; a profusion of light hair fell ,
over his forehead and cheeks, which were
also shaded by large mustachios, and he l
wore a pair of green spectacles over his'
eyes.
The little party were gay and lively asp
usual, but there was a sudden stilluesa iu
the room, when the stranger, holding in
Isis hand a ringlet or dark brown hair,
'tremulously asked a lady next to him if
that was not a pretty ti ess.
"It certainly and a favorite memento,
I presume."
" It was taken, madam, from the bosom
ofan officer, a friend of mine, who fell
from on hoard one of the U. States ves
sels during a late cruise, his body was
happily recovered, but"-
" May I inquire his name!" interrupted
Helen, in breathless haste, and uncon
sciously rising from her chair.
His name was Clarence Lee."
" And lost over"-the words died up
on her lips, and she sank back insensibly
into her seat. The stranger started from
his chair, threw off his spectacles. musta
chios and light hair, and in a n instant the'
metamorphosed Clarence Lee was leaning
over her chair, and endeavoring to recall
her to animation, by repeatedly pronoun-
Icing her name in his own natural voice.
Helen at length recovered, cast around a
bewildering glance, and scarcely imagined
she beheld her lover by her side.
"Am I not dreaming!" said she, revi
ving.
‘. I should hope not," said Clarence, sei
zing her hand, and eagerly pressing It to
his bosom. .c I have put thy faith to a sad
trial, Helen, but wilt thou not forgive nie
when I tell thee that I was cruelly deceiv
ed by others!--they told me thou wort
false to me, Helen, but this - pledge of thy
affection (again displaying the ringlet,)
proves their words false, not thee, and that
I meet the same fond, faithful heart I left
two years ago.
It is needless to remark, that the strata
gem was readily forgiven, and that Helen,
soon after at the altar of hymen, gave
herself as a pledge of her love and faith to
Clarence Lee.
Say, Harry, were you at the battle of
Bunker Hill?' Not exactly, Tom, but
then my daddy says he knew a man that
told him that he saw an ofd friend of
his that had an uncle who often affirmed
that a great grandfather, by the mother's
side, belonged to a regiment of foot, in
which there was a man who said that a
daddy of his told him that a mercantile un
cle met a man one day who said he had
seen General Washington about those
diggings one day afore breakfast! Were
you ever any closer?' 'Not quite as near
gunshot as that, I thank you!'
HATHAW AFS COOKING
Hot Air Stoves.
rivIIIS celebrated stove is now manufac
tured by Arthur B. Long. in Lewis
town, Pa., which he will endeavor at all
times to keep on hand ready fur use, he is
making the three following sizes :
N o 2, smallest size, receives a stick of wood
2 feet 4 inches long.
No. 2 1-2 middle size receives a stick of
wood 2 teet 6 inches long.
No. 3 largest stze receives a stick of wood
2 feet 8 inches long.
This stove No 3. is calculated for Tav•
erns,. Mauling !louses, or (Apr Houses
where much cooking is requited. and No.
2. and 2+ is calculated for the use of
farmers and small families.
There never has yet appeared any sys
tem or plan of a cooking stove which has
the same advantage that this stove has.
Its culinary purpose is not to be equalled.—
its baking qualities are far superior to any
other, as the hot air principle is the con
tinuation of heat in the stove by which a
much less quantity of fuel is required to
perform a much larger amount of cooking
or baking than any other stove that has
formerly been used.
All orders addressed to Arthur B. Long,

A-F Swayne' Compound Syrup of PrtiJ
cue of Virginana or wild Cherry
This syrup is highly beneficial in all pecto
ral affections; also, in diseases of the chest
. in which the lungs do not perform their
proper office from want of due nervous
energy: such as asthmas,pulmonary con
sumption, recent or chronic coughs, hoarse
ness, whooping cough, wheezing and dif
ficulty of breathing, croup and spitting of
blood, 4.c. How many sufferers do we
daily behold approaching to an untimely
grave, wrested in the bloom of youth from
their dear relatives and friends, afflicted
with that common and destructive rave
ger,called consumption, which soon wants
the miserable sufferer until they become]
beyond the power of human skill; if such
sufferers would only make a trial of Dr
Swayne's i nvaluable medicine, they would
soon find themselves benefitted; than by
gulphing the various ineffective certain
remedies of which our newspapers daily
abound. This syrup immediately begins
to heal the ulcerated lungs, stopping prey
fuse night sweats, mitigating the distres
sing cough at the same time inducing a
healthy and natural expectoration, also re
lieving the shortness of breath and pa' n
in the chest, which harrass the sufferer c r
the slightest exercise, and finally the he
tic flash in the pallid and emaciated cheek
will soon begin to vanish, and the sufferer
will here perceive himself snatched from a
premature grave ,into the enjoyment again

of different sharpening properties, viz: No.

er of the ordinary Hone, and almost instant
ly thins a dull edge. No. 2, a powerful

Razor to a fine edge. No. 4 is merely the

DR. JONATHAN GOING. PRESIDENT
of THE GRANVILLZ COLLFG E Ohio (late
of New York), in a letter to Dr. Jayne da
ted New York. December. 1836. says:—
He was laboring under a severe cold. cough
and hoarseness, and that his 'difficulty of
breathing was so great that he felt himself
in imminent danger of immendiate suffoca
tion, but was perfectly cured by using the
Expectorant."—Mrs. Delks, ofSalem, N.J.
was cured of Asthma of twenty yearsstand
ing, by using two bottles of this medicine
Mrs. Ward, also of Salem. was cured of the
same complaint by one bottle. A young la
dy, also of Salem, who was believed by her
friends to be for gone with consumption was
perfectly restored by three bottles.—Dr.
Hamilton of St. James, South Carolina, was
greatly affected by a cough, hoarseness and
soreness of the lungs, and on using a bottle of
this medicine found permanent relief.
Mr. Nicholas Harris, sen., one ofthe Dea- I
cons ofthe First Baptist Church in this city,
has been perfectly cured by it—after having
suffered for stxty years with Cough, Asth
ma, and Spittingof Blood, which no remedy
before could relieve.

lows:
New York, June 15,1838.
To Dr. Jayne:—Dear Sir,—l have made
use of your Expectorant, personally and in
my family for the last six years, with great
benefit. Indeed I may consider my life pro
longed by the use of this valuable medicine,
under the blessing ofGod, forseveral years.
I may say almost as much in the case of my
wife, and also of the Rev. Mr. Tonsoo, of
the Island of Jamaica. Forall cases of cough,
inflamation of the chest, lungs, and throat, I
do most unhesitatingly recommend this as the
best medicine I have ever tried. My earnest
wish is, that others afflicted as I have been,
may experience the same relief, which I am
persuaded they will by using your Expecto
rant.

the westeen country, which will infallibly)
cure FEVERS AND AC LIES of all kinds;
will never fail to eradicate entirely all the
' effects of Mercury, infinitely sooner than the
most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla,
and will immediately cure the determination
of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in
the sickness incident to young females; and
will he found a certain remedy in all cases
of nervous debility and weakness of the most
impaired constitutions. As a remedy for
C hronic and Inflamatory Rheumatism, the
efficacy of the Phoenix Bitters will be de
monstrated by the use of a single bottle,
The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity
afforded by the universal diffusion of the
press, for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES within the knowledge and
reach ofevery individual in the community.
Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries,
which boast of vegitable ingredients, the
Lite l'ilis are purely and SOLELY VAGETA
BLE, and contain neither Mercury Antimony,
Arsenic, nor any other mineral,in any form
whatever.
The following are among the distressing
, :arietes of human diseases, to which the
vegetable Life fills are well known to be
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing
the first and second stomachs, and creating a
flow of pure and healthy bile, instead of the
stale and acrid kind,--flatulency, Palpita
' tion of the Heart, Loss of Appetite Heart
burn and Headache, Restlessness, 111-temp
er, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, which
are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will
vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure.
Costiveness, by cleansing the whole length
of the intestines with a solvent process, and
without violence. Diarrhaa and Cholera,
by removing the sharp acrid fluids by which
these complaints are occasioned. '1 he Life
Medicines have been known to cure Rheu •
matism permanently in three weeks, and
Gout in half that time. Dropsies of all
kinds, by freeing and strengthening the kid•
neys and bladder. A certain remedy for
the worst cases of Gravel. Also Worms,
by dislodging from the turnings of the bow
els the slimy matters to which these crea
tures adhere ; As :hma and Consumption, by
relieving the vessels of tLe lungs from the
mucus; Scurvey, Ulcers, and Inveterate
Sores, by the perfect purity of these Life
P lls give to the blood, and all the humors;
Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Clomplexions i
by their alterative effect upon the fluids
that feed the skin. The use of these Pills
for a very short time, will effect an entire
cure of Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, and a
striking improvement in the clearness of
the Skin. Common Colds and Influenza,
will always be cured by one close, or by
two, even in the worst cases. Piles,—as
a remedy for this most distressing and cb
stinate malady, the Vegetable Life Pills de
serve a distinct and emphatic recommenda
tion. It is well known to hundreds in this
city, that the originator oft - ese invaluable
Pills was himself afflicted with this com
plaint for up Yards of thirty-five years, and
that he tried in vain every remedy pre
scribed within the compass of the Materia
Medica. He however, at length, tried the
medicine which he now offers to the public
and he was cured in a very short time.
Allthat Mr. Moffat requires of his pa
tients is to be particular in taking the Life
Medicines strictly according to the directi%
ADVICE To FEMALES.-Females whn
