The youth held his beloved, who shiver
ing in the stormed wind, and spake: "Yes,
my beloved, all life is washed oil from the
earth; no mortal now howls in the roaring o
this desolotiOn. My beloved Zemira, the
1 1 coming instant is our last: Yes, they. are
'fled! all the hopes of our life; that holy mo
ment when we vowed to each other inviola
ble constancy, we have in vain exulted in; we
are dying. But let us not, like outcasts,
pine .over our common lot. What is long
est life, and the joyfulest, but.a dew drop
which hangs today on the rock and to-mor-
row falls into the ocean. Lilt up thy cour
age. Beyond this life there is a bliss and
eternity. Let us not tremble to cross the
narrow sea."

- Courage and joy arose in the soul of Ze.

She lifted her hand amid the tempest, and
Said; "Yes, I feel those great and mighty
truths: . Ye are, but gone before, my beloved
ones, who were lately torn from me; we too
are coming; we soon shall meet again. See,
my beloved, death is coming nearer, on this
rising, stifling blackness of the wave. 0
Seam), embrace me; leave me not, the waves

"I embrace thee Zemira," said the youth.
"I embrace thee; death will be welcome."
So they sp:ike,while the.flood swept the m
away in each other's arms.
The average cost of the Portage and Co•
lumbia rail roads inlPennsylvania is forty.
four thousand dollars por mile; that of the
Liverpool and Manchester about one hun-

It is stated in the Richmond Whig that
P. P. Barbour and John M. Patton have
both come out in favor of Judge White,
and in opposition to Mr. Van Buren.
DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.--A very dis.
trussing accident occurred to the Despatch
Line of Stages (Colder & Wilson's) on the
evening of Friday last. In descending the
hill this side of the Chiques creek, the break
used in locking the wheels gave way sudden
ly, which caused the horses to run nt full
gallop until they reached the bottom of the
hill, where coming in contact with one of the
wings of the bridge, the stage was upset and
one of the passengers,who occupied a seat on
the outside, was thrown with such violence
against the wall, as to cause his death in
about two hours. We understand that the
name of the unfortunate individual was Reese
Thomas; .that he resided at the Gulf, in
Montgomery county in this state, and that he
has a wife and eleven children to lament his
sudden decease. Several of the inside pas.
sengers were more or less injured.—Exam.
"Now BY SAINT PAUL, THE WORK GOES
BRAVELY ON."---The Mulilenbergers of
Philadelphia county have held a great Town
.Meeting, and passed a long string of resolu
lions denouncing itino moderate or qualified
terms Gov. Wolf, his friends, his nomina
tion, the nomination of the Van Buren elec.
toral ticket, and the whole "kit and bundle"
of that side of the Jackson house ! Some of
our Whig brethren have thought that the

Not they! They are, we say again, of the
Kitchen Cabinet school, and are fishing af

lion by executive mandate of judges, life officers,
aldermen, justices, canal commissioners, super.
intendents, supervihors, toll collectors, lock tend
ers, contractors, creditors and debtors of the State
at Harrisburg, to overawe and intimidate the
members of the 4th March Convention, should be
visited and marked by the strong arm of the Le
gislature, as it will be by the people in the exercise
of the elective franchise."
Here we have disclosed the whole story.
The Muhlenbergers want the spoils,and they
mean to have them. They love Van Buren
only in proportion, as he will sabserve them
in obtaining the spoils. Some say they will
have to give up their game, because it will
subserve the interest of Van Buren to do so.
Poh! what care they for Van Buren without
the spoils7—Baltimore Pat.
It is stated in the NeW Orleans Adverti
ser that upwards offive millions of acres of
land in. Louisiana are subject to annual in
undation and that that, amount comprises a
bout one•sixth of 'the entire territory of the
state. From the same paper we learn that
the gross amount of land under cultivation
does not exceed forty thousand acres; the
annual product of which is about ten millions
of dollars, or an average of two hundred
and fifty dollars per acre. In view of these
singular and striking facts, the editor urges
the necessity of suitable efforts to reclaim
the inundated lands, the profits arising from
which would, he contends, be enormous.
MANIFOLD VIRTUES OF TUE ELDER TREE
—Sir J.E.Srarrif has remarked that this tree
is, as it were, a whole magazine of physic
to rustic practitioners. It is said that if
sheep that have the rot can get at the bark
and young shoots of elder they will soon cure
themselves. The wine made from elder
berries is' too well known by filMilies in , the
country,to needanyencorniu '

berries, when ripe make mine much resem

tender shoots are greatly admired as pickle.
The leaves of the elder tree are often put
into the subterranean paths ofmoles, to drive
those noxious little animals from the garden.
I ffruit trees, flowering shrubs, corn or other
vegetables, be whipped with the green leaves
of the elder brunettes, it is said that insects
will not attach themselves to them. An in
fusion of these leaves in water is good to
sprinkle over rose-buds, and other flowers
subject to blight, and the devastations of ca
terpillars.—Leigh hunt's London Journal.
THE SLAVE TRADE.—The New York
Journal of Commerce says: "We learn, on
unquestionable authority, that a vessel has
ell this port within the last ten days, for
the coast of Africa. Whatever may be the
egal evidence on the subject, no one who
hai seen the construction of the vessel, and
her manner of fitting out can have the least
doubt that she is a shiver. She has on
board two Captains--one a Portuguese, the
other an American!"
[lt was the practice of our Government
formerly, we believe, to keep a cruiser on
the African coast, to co-operate with other
Christian Powers, in suppressing. the inhu
man slave trade; but for several years past,
for some reason unknown to us, the practice
has been discontinued, with the exception
of an occasional touching at Monrovia by
some public ship on her way home from the
Mediterranean.-- , --.Nutionad bit.]

of the trouble and danger attending the haz
ardous ann ineffectual practice of extracting
the Corn by mere cutting.
The following instances, from many oth
ers of a similar character, sufficiently attest
to the superior efficacy of the Albion Corn
Plaster:
Mr. Farrar, of Boston, was a amber of
years distressed by a very painful Corn, had
applied every thing recommended without
effect, and was rendered a perfect cripple.
On applyinf , this Plaster he was perfectly
cured of his Corn, and freed from his lame.

A Gentleman of Greenfield, was for years
afflicted with a very painful Corn, and was
cured by one box, after every other plaster
had been tiled to no purpose.
Mr. Cutler, of Boston, was cured ofa trou

CERTIFICATE.—To those afflicted with
Corns on their feet, I do certify, that I have
used the Albion Corn Plaster with corn.

THE PEOPLE'S AND PENNY
MAGAZINE,
Congistingof the American People's Magazine, united
with the Penny Magazine of the London Society
for the difllision of Useful Knowledge.
HE present publishers of the People's Maga.
zino, being desirous ofimproving itscharac.
tor, arid rendering it more deserving of the eaten.
sivo patronage which it has received, have resolv
ed on enlarging its sizo, by uniting with it the
London Penny Magazine, which they propose to
republish entire, and without alteration. The
general excellence and high reputation of the Pen
ny Magazine, which is published under the pa.
tronago of the British Society tbr the Diffusion of
Untie! Knowledge, and of which. 200,000 copies
are sold in Great Britain, have induced the pub.
fishers of the People's Magazine to adopt this
course, as that in which they can best promote
the interest and meet the wishes of their numer
ous renders. The articles contained in that work
aro not ell equally adapted to the wants and the
taste of the American reader; yet few of them can
bo rejected as undeserving attention even on this
side of tiro Atlantic. Few of them aro on subjects
of mere local interest—politics are excluded—and
discussions of doubtful and disputed questions aro
rarely introduced. The prominent subjects are
striking points of Natural History—accounts of
AO Groat Worka of Art in Sculpture. and Paint.
ing—descriptions of such Antiquities as possess
historical interest—personal Narratives of Tray
oilers—Biographyof mon who have had a perma
nent influence on the condition of the world—es.
tablished Facts in Statistics and Political Econo
my—and other subjects ofa like general interest,
accompanied with a great numhor of Engravings,
to illustrate almost every variety of subjects.
These subjects, however, aro of course selec
ted with reference to the condition and taste of
the English reader. As a work to be presented
to an American reader, as a general repository of
information and entertainment, it the most im
portant and useful branches of knowledge, it may
bo rendered more complete on many of the sub
jects ache highest interest, by the addition pro
posed. l'ncts and events relating to tins country.
—discoveries and improvements of American ori
gin, and subjects arising out of our peculiar in.
stitutions.and state of society, must necessarily
be, in a great measure, excluded from a magazine
particularly adapted to the use of the people of
Groat Britain. These deficiencies it is the inten
tion of. the publishers to sup Ply in the People's
Magazine, and this department of the work, con•
silting chiefly of original articles, will be special.
ly designed as a companion to the Penny Maga
zine, with a view of adapting it more fully to the
situation and wants of the American reader. It
will take cognizance of subjects of Natural Histo.
ry, originating on this continent, and particularly
in our own country—incidents in American His
tory,. American Biography, descriptions of our
great works of Public Improvements, striking
specimens of American Architecture, and useful
'discoveries of domestic origin. This portion of
the work will bo prepared with care, that it may
be worthy of being received as a companion to
the popular work with which it is now united.
The People's and the Penny .11Iagazine will be
illustrated with highly finished wood engravings,
and issued in monthly numbers, containing 64
pages eaCh—the twelve numbers equal to 2300
pages!! common octavo. Each number will bo
published simultaneously at Boston, Now York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore.
The People's Magazine will also be issued sop.
irately from the Penny, in monthly numbere, of
double the number of pages contained in the pres
ent numbers, enlarged and improved, and ouch
number neatly put up in a strong cover.
The first number ofthe People's will be issued
on the Ist of Aprilnext, and it is intended to issue
the twelve numbers in such intervals, as to corn

STAFAIIK'S PANACEA.
Copy of a letter from William L. Hirst,
Esq. Attorney at Law,'No. 83 South Se
venth street, Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb., 1835.
Dear Sir,
Your 'Panacea" has accomplished a cure
so remarkable, that I feel bound to certify
it. My brother Lucas about three years since, was afflicted wit h a severe attack of
scrofula. His head was completely covered
with ulcers, so thick and close that they
grow one over the other; and his, face and
body were covered 'alio with numerous sores;
he was under the most judicial medical treat
ment for nine months, without - the least a.
mendment, growing worse daily, and every
variety of remedy was used, according to
the regular practice of medicine. It was nt
a time when he was looked upon asoincura.
ble,, that I resolved to procure your "Patin.
cea" fin. him. The Oka was quite won.
derful. Without any change 01 his custo
mary diet, three bottles, and about One half
of the fourth . ; restored him to perfect health.
It'is - now two years since he was cured; he
remains well, and is ns hearty and robust as
any boy of his age in thiS city.
Yours, respectfully,
W. L. IIIRST.
Mr. Wx. - • s
P - The above medicine can be had at
he Drug . Store of
Dr. 'J..GILBERT.
