    HOW A MAN LOST 1115 WIFE. I
" Many a year ago—oh, very many
years ago, I enjoyed a week full of North
Carolinian hospitality, which was then,
as now, cordial, generous, and, better
than all, altogether sincere. By the
way, Arthur, I never understood why
hospitality is so generally, indeed al
most universally marked as a southern
character, so distinguished as to imply
that the virtue hardly exists anywhere
else. Now I have found warm hearts
in the devilish old corners of New Eng
land ; just as warm as in the hot states
towards the Gulf ; and a Pennsylvania
Dutchman has entertained me as royal
ly, in his way to be sure, as ever did an
F. F. Virginian. The American peo
ple are everywhere hospitable; and it
being so, they are rather obedient to an
every-day feeling than to an impulse; a
feeling too, which has nothing to do with
tiorthern or southern climates. D—n
this geography in America."
" Uncle, tell me your story."
" Well, I len in love, as we used to
say, with a girl ; she was only seven
teen, and the sweetest, lovliest-"
"Yes, I know," said I, "I have seen
such."
" But Ellen I tell you, was a nonpa
reil—modest, retireing—don't interrupt
me—and she loved me; and I loved her
with a love so pure that its no wonder
the course did'nt run smooth. Soon af
ter oar engagement—it was early in Au
gust—l went to visit Col. L., a friend of
her father in the country. We found
there a half dozen—yes more—young'
ladies—and real devils they were, so
different from my Ellen. The old Col
onel wss delighted with the noise we
made—our gaiety and fun ; he was fond
of frn and as gay as any of us. We
had a glorious dance—"
Here my uncle stopped. He was bu
sied with memories too sacred to be
scattered by any thoughtless speech of
mine. An old man's recollections—but
he resumed
"Arthur, I hate fleas. * *
My host showed me my room. I, was
fatigued with riding and dancing, and I
was soou asleep and dreaming. The
ladies left the drawing room before I did ;
a half a dozen huddled together in one
large chamber, as I discovered after-
wards, I suppose there were plenty of
beds in it, but as for that I neither know
nor care. Col. L. came to my room and
awakened me. "Jump up quick—l'll
show you some fun. Come with me—
no one's here." I had neither panta
loons nor slippers, but it was a warm
night, and the floor was smooth and
cool.
"Nov look," raid he, as he placed my
eye to the keyhole.
I had noticed that the door was ajar,
but I peeped. By the Lord, the girls
were searching for fleas in their sacred
. _....
linen! and Ellen was among them—six
of them by the Lord !
"1 had no sooner seen this, and di
gested a thought that:Ellen might have
been in better business, than that same
Colonel gave me a push with both his
hands, and in a twinkling I was in the
room on my hands and bare knees
among all those girls.
"I think I went and dressed myself.
Col. L. did not sleep in the honse that
night. 1 had letters which required
me to leave very early next morning—
before breakfast. 1 received a letter
from Ellen two days afterwards, and I
have never seen her since."—X. Y.
Spirit of the Times.
Not Horn% last, But his best.
Ward, the baker of Fulton street, no
torious for the quantity of his soda
crackers called on Horn in the way of
business.
.1 wish you would send me a box of
crackers," said Horn.
" When do you want them 2"
. Immediately."
"I'll send them round to you in less
than fifteen minutes."
" I'll bet the drinks for the company
present, you don't
" Done sir, I'll take that bet."
" Off started Ward, chuckling at the
idea of doing the joker, at the same
time considering its reflection on his
punctuality. In a few moments he re
turned with a smile on his countenance,
and the box of crackers under his arm.
" Come, Horn, let's have the drinks !"
pointing his finger at the clock.
" Certainly, sir."
The drinks were furnished, and the
gentlemen imbibed as they supposed, at
Horn's expense.—When N . was leav
ing, Horn addressed him—
" You have not paid for the drinks."
" Paid for the drinks ! 1 won them,"
replied the victim, rather tartly.
" No, sir. You said you would send
them round. Loak here, sir," said Horn
holding up one of the crackers, " they
are square."
" Done brown, Mr Baker," shouted
the company.
While W. was paying for the drinks
Horn opened a running fire of puns, by
way of consoling him.
"Mr. W. they cannot call you a loaf•
er, although you are a baker."
'"
Indeed,
"You are a gentleman, and a well
bred one, too.
." Thank you, sir."
" You belong to the upper crust."
"Go to thunder, you and your puns,"
roared W., and flinging down his change,
he bolted like a streak.

Messrs. ('oilier & Bro,
Gentleman—ln reply to your note as to the
effect of the Oxygenated Bitters in my case I
would say, that I have been afflicted with Dyspep
sia about six yearn, and have tried many known
remedies, but obtained no relief until a friend
recommended the Oxygenated Bitters. • • • •
I was finally induced to procure two bottler of
you; and I had not taken half a bottle before I
felt its effects upon my system , and after the use
of the second bottle. I found mysel in a elate of
health as unexpected as it was gratifying. To
the afflicted I have no hesitation in recommend
ing the Bitters, as superior to any medicine I
have ever heard of for the cure of Dyspepsia.
Very Respectfully yours,
MADSON M. LE WIS.
The following Certificates have re
cently been received:
W ABl4l NGToN, D. C., June O. 1846.
Having inade use of the .Oxygenated Bitters"
prepared by Dr. Geo. B. Green, of W indoor, Vt ,
nd from knowledge obtained of their efficacy in
other canes, we cheerfully recommend them to the
public, believing that they will fully sustain the
recommendation of the Proprietor. Vt e hope
that this valuable remedy may be so generally dif
fused throughout the country that it may be ac
cessible to all the afflicted.

Yearlabia. 11,saiwrip.ai i 111.,
The only known Medicine that at the same
time purges, purifies and strengthens
the system. _ _ _
LonnoN,July 7 , 1846.
DR. LE ROY'S Pillsare a new medicine which
has just appeared,and isfast taking the places
of all others of the same class. These pills are
composed of many ingredients, but the two pried
pal ones are Sarsaparilla and Wild C berry, so uni
ted that they act together; the one, through it
admixture with other substances, purifying and
purging, while the other is strengthening the sys
tem. Thus those pills are at the same time tonic
and opening; a desideratum long and eagerly
auught for by medical men, but never before din
cowered. In other words they do the work of twe
medicines, and do it much better than any two we
know of; for they remove nothing from the system
but the impurities; so that while they purge they
strengthen; and hence they cause no debilitation,
and are follow,d by no re-action. Dr. Le Hoy's
pills have a wonderfulinfluence on the blood ; they
not only purify without weakening it but they re
move all noxious particles from the chyle befoteit
is converted into fluid, and thus make impure
blood an utter impossibility. Anther, to no debil•
itation,so there is no nausea or sickness attending
the operations of this moat excellent of medicines
, which never strains or tortures the digestive func
tiona,buteauses them to work in is perfectly natur
al manner; and hence persons taking them do not
become pale and emaciated, but the contrary ; for
while it is the property of the Sarsaparilla, unite,.
so It is with other ingredients, to retnove all that it,
foreign and impure, it is equally the property of
the Wild Cherry to retain all that is natural and
sound; and hence a robust state of health is the
certain result of their united operations.
