The Happy Farmer.
Xi XX.. 1. 11. 91001311712.
Saw ye the farmer at hie plough
As you wero riding by
Cr, wearied 'neath his noon day toil,
When summer suns were high'
And thought you that his lot was hard
And did you thank your God,
That you end yours, were not condemn'd
Thus like a slave to plod
Corne,see him at his honest home,
When garden, field, and tree,
Conspire, with flowing stores to fill
His barn, and granary.
His healthful children gaily sport,
Amid the new•mown hay,
Or proudly aid with vigorous arm,
His task as beat they may.
The dog partakes his master'. joy,
And guards the loaded wain,
The feathery people clap their wings,
And lead their youngling train.
Perchance the hoary giandsire's eye
The glowing scene surveys,
And breathes a blessing on his rase s
Or guides their evening praise.
The Harvest Giver is their friend,
The maker of the soil,
And earth, the Mother, gives them bread
And cheers theme patient toil.
Come, join them round their winery hearth,:
Their heart felt pleasure ace,
And you can better judge how blest
The farmer's life may be.
The Man who lost his Pants.
The following is a passage from the
laughable tale of "Desperation," one of
the rich articles which are embraced in
the " Literary remains of Willis Gaylord
Clark." It is only necessary to premise
that the writer is a Philadelphia student
who, after a stolen fortnight among the
gaieties of Washington city, finds himself
(through the remissness of a chum) at Bal
timore on his way home, without a penny
in his pocket. lie stops at a fashionable
hotel, nevertheless, whereafter tarrying a
day or two, he finally at the heel of a great
dinner, omnia sofas in his private apart
ment, flanked with abundant Champaigne
and Burgundy, resolves to disclose all to
the landlord. Summoning a servant, he
says :
"Ask the landlord to step up to my
room and bring his bill."
Ile chattered down stairs giggling and
shortly after his master appeared. Ile en
tered with a generous smile, that made
me hope for the best the house afforded,
and that just then was credit.
" How much do I owe ?" said I.
lie handed me the bill, with all the grace
of polite expectancy. . .
Let me .see--seventeen dollars. How
very reasonable But, my dear sir, the
most disagreeable part of the business is
now to be told. I grieve to into' m you,
that at present, I am out of money—but
1 know I .'y your philanthropic looks that
you will be satisfied when I tell you that
if I had it, I would give it to you with un
qualified pleasure. But you see my not
having the change by me is the reason I
don't do it; and I am sure you will let
the matter stand and say no more about it.
I am a stranger to you, that's a fact, but
in the place where 1 came from all my ac
quaintances know me easy as can be."
The landlord turned all colors.
" Where do you live, any how 1"
In Washing-. 1 should have said
in Philadelphia.
His eyes Hashed with angry disappoint.
ment.
" I see how it is, Mister; my opinion
is that you area blackleg, you don't know
where your home is. You begin with
Washington, and then drop in for Phila
delphia. You must pay your bill."
But I can't."
Then I'll take your clothes; if I don't
blow me tight."
" Scoundrel !" said I, rising bolt up
right, "do it if you dare, and leave the
rest to me !"
There was no more words. lie rose
deliberately, seized my hat and only inex
pressibles. and walked down stairs.
Physicians say that no two excitements
can exist at the same time in one system.
External circumstances drove away, al
most immediately, the confusion of my
brain.
I arose and looked out of the mindow.
The snow was descending as I drummed
on the pane. 11'hat was Ito do An
unhappy wight, sans culottes in a strange
city—no money, and slightly inebriated.
A thought struck me. I had a large, full
cloak, with my other apportionments, save
those he took, the landlord had spared.
I_dressed myself immediately, drew on
my boots over my fine white drawers, not
unlike small clothes ; put on my cravat,
vest and coat— laid a travelling cap from
my trunk jauntingly over my forehead,
and flinging my fine mantle about me,
made my way through the hall into the
street.
Attracted by shining lamps on the por
tico of a new hotel, a few squares hom
my first lodgings, I entered, recorded
some name on the books, and bespoke a
bed. Every thing was fresh and neat, and
every servant attentive ; all augured right.
I kept myself closely cloaked, puffed a
cigar, went to bed to mature my plot.
Waiter, just brush my clothes well, my
fine tallow." I said in the morning—mind
the pantaloons, don't spill any thing from
the pockets, there's money in them both."
"I don't see no pantaloons."
"The deuce you don't. Where are
they? _
Can't tell, I P num, (his eyes as big as
saucer•.) I don't knovi, as true as lam
alive !"
" Go down, sirrali, and tell your master
to come up here immediately." The pub
lican was with ice in a moment.
Landlord 1 ." I exclaimed. " I have
been robbed in your house, robbed sir,
robbed ! fly pantaloons and a purse eon •
twining three SSU notes are gone This
►e a pretty hotel. It this the "say you
fulfil the Injunctions of scripture I lum
a stranger and find myself Laken in with
a vengeance. 1 will expose you at once,
if lam not recompensed." P►ay keep
your temper," said the agitated publican,
I have just opened this house—it is get
ting a good run, would you ruin its repu
tation for an accident 7 I will find out
the villain who has rubbed you, and send
for a tailor to measure you for your missing
garments. Your money shall be refunded.
Du you not see that your temper is use
less T"
My dear sir, I thank you fur your
kinkness; I did not mean to reproach you;
and if those trowsers can be done, to-day,
shall be satisfied ; fur time is tar more
precious than money. You may keep the
others, if you find them, and in exchange
for the one hundred and tilty dollars which
you gave me, their contents are yours."
The next evening with my new inex
! pressibles, and one hundred and forty
dollars in my purse, I called on my guar
dian in Philadelphia for sixty dollars. Ile
gave me a lecture that I shall nut soon
forget. I obtained money, and sent it
back to my honorable landlord by the first
post, settled my bill at old Crusty's, the
first publican, and got my trunk by mail.

Huntigdon, April 23, 1845,
TO SENSIBLE CITIZENS.-We know
from what we see and feel, that the animal
body is, in its organs and functions, subject
to derangement, inducing pain, and tending
to its destruction. In this disordered state,
we observe nature providing for the re-es
tablishment of order, by exciting some salu
tary evacuation of the morbilic matter, or by
sonic other operation, which escapes our
imperfect senses and researches. In some
cases she brings on a ci isis by the bowels, in
others by sweating, &c. &c.
Now experience has taught us that there
are certain substances, by which, applied to
the living body, internally or externally, we
can at will produce the same evacuations,
and thus do in a short time. what nature
could do but slowly, and do effectually what
she might not have strength to accomplish.
When then we have seen a disease cured by
a certain natural evacuation, should that dis
ease occur again, we may count upon curing
it by the use of such substances, as we know
bring about the same evacuation, which we
had before observed to cure a similar disease.
It is in consequence of the power which
the Brandreth Pills exert upon the whcle
system, that makes them so universally ben
eficial. It is because they impart to the
body, the power to expel disease without
leaving any evil effect.
Asa general family medicine, Brandretli's
Pills are, it is believed by the Proprietor,
superior to every other offei ed to the public.
Dr. Brandreth's Pills are for sale by the
following Agents in this county.

REMARKABLE CURES
Of all the cures that have yet been record-...
ed, there are certainly none equal to the
below mentioned. and they plainly show
the curability of Consumption, even nt
some of its worst forms
ijeie , ieriMan,;vOMiiand child read the
following, and we are sure that it must satin-
fy all of the great virtues of the medicine.
Read the following from Dr. Jacob
Hoffman ,a physician of extensive practice in.
Huntingdon county :
Dear Sir:—l procured one bottle of Dt.
Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry; from
Thomas Read, Esq. of this place, and tried
it in a case of obstinate Asthma on a child of
Paul Schweble, in which many other reme
dies had been tried without any relief. The
Balsam gave sudden relief, and in my opin
on the child is effectuelly cured by its use.
Yours, &c.

The case of Thomas Cozens Is related by
himself as follows, and acknowledged by
all who knew him to be one of the most
astonishing and extraordinary cures ever
performed.:
HADDONFIELD, N. J.
April 20, 1843.
On or about the 13th of October, 1841, I
was taken with a violent pain in the side
near the Liver, which continued about live
days, and was followed by the breaking of
an u lcer, or something inwardly, which re
lieved the pain a little, but caused me to•
throw up a great quantity of offensive mat
ter and also much blood. Being . greatly
alermed at this I applied to a physician, who
said lie thought he could do but little for
me except give me some mercury pills,
which I refused to take feeling satisfied that
they could do me no good ; many other re
medies were then procured by my wife and.
friends but none did me any good and the
discharge of blood end putrid corruption
still continued every few days, and at the last
it became so offensive that I could scarcely
breathe. I was slso seized with a violent
cough,which at times caused me to raise much
more blood than I had formerly done, and
my disease continued in this way until Feb
, ruary, when all hopes of my recovery were
given up, and my friends all thought that I
would die of a galloping consumption. At
this moment when my life apparently was
drawing near to its close, I heard of Wisiar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry and got a bottle*
which relieved me immediately, and by the
use of only three bottles of this medicine.
all my pains were removed, and my cough.
and spitting of blood removed, and in a few
days my health was to far restored as to en
able me to work at my trade (which is that
of a carpenter) and up to this time 1 have'
enjoyed good health.

Cozens and having seen him during his ill
