Ott, she is gone! itui wintry blasts, that sweep
Wild round her mansion, trouble not her sleep,
Cone in her beauty! Fast the drifting snows
Fiji cold, but harmless, o'er her deep repose!
Here, in her circle of its gem bereft.
Lave bath but tears to fill the place she left,
Sigh calls for sigh, from ncliiiig bosoms drawn,
Void gives to void, the mournful echo, "cost!"
Spring will return and bring nround her door,
Sweet opening flowers their odours there to pour,
Striving to win her forth, who planted them,
Once wore to Ralik that they adorn the stem .
Yet, must they wait her till they die povay,
She was a fairer, lovelier flower than they,
Snapped off in blooming! ere n:leaf could fade.
Cast into darkness! wrapped in silent hack,
0, AO IS gone! and where shall burdened grief
fur forth her fountains for the soul's relief?
• t to the dust to nourish earthly weeds:
They yield no balsam while the spirit bleeds!
11111 1Wannto death let sorrow's waters flow!
Rut to death's victor may the Weeper go!
His risen glory chasing mortal gloom,
Shows grief a rainbow bending u'er the tomb
"Is not gaining a , rr;"alt victory the moo
iorious thin& in the world?" observed a
dy to the Duke of IVELLINGTON at the

The Duke replied, "It is the greatest 4;111
calamities except a defeat." A memorable
saying, and worthy the greatest man of this

od Mr. P. O'Neill, in the yeo of his valuable Anti-
Rheumatic Medicine, which has been ascertained
to boa specific not only in Rheumatism, but also
in White Swelling, &Hesse oldie Hip Joint, Scro
fula, Ate- &a. Woare urged to make these re.
marks, not from the certificates of unknown per
sons, but from our own knowledge of several im
portant cures effected by his medicine,which have
created general astonishment. The most impor
tant ono is that of Miss E Rohr, the daughter of
our worthy Post-master, who, after years of suf.
boring, has been relieved solely by the use of Mr.
O'Neill's medicine—the Medical Faculty having
tried every thing in vain. Those aro Miss Rohr's
own statements. The high reputation of Mr.
O'Neill's endorsers justify us in saying that their
statements- merit universal credence.
We are not in the habit of expressing an opin
ion of the efficacy of Patent Medicines, but in the
case of the above mentioned remedy for Rheuma
tism, we fool culled on, by principles of humanity,
to state that it has had the most surprising ef
fects. The inventor is a gentleman in whom the
greatest reliance can be placed; but he has other
than his own testimony in favor of the medicine
which ho offers to the public. Clergymen, phy
sicians, and those who have been mhoved, have
borne voluntary witness to its astonishing effica
cy; and those who have the misfortune to he afilic
ted with this distressing complaint may be assur
odor immediate relief by resorting to this remedy.
The following is from the Fredericktown Her
ald, edited by Wm. Ogden Niles, Esq. April 6th,
183:
Mr. O'Neill's Rheumatic Medicine, offered to
the publiC in this day's paper, if we form an opin
ion from the character of the maker, and numer
ous certificates in his possession from highly res
pectable individuals, who have been cured by the
use of it, is one of the most valuable of recent dis
covery. Its effects upon those afflicted with chro
nic and inflammatory rheutnatisin,have been truly
marvellous; a few bottles enabling them to dis
pense with crutches, flannels and bandages, with
which for years they have protected their limbs
and bodies. Mr. O'Neill merits the gratitude of
the afflicted, and the testimony of respectable
physicians forbids those imputations which aro
generally attached to venders of panaceas.

Notwithstanding the prejudices against
these Saddles heretofore, he feels justifiable
in saying, that he hopes to gain the confi
dence and patronage of the public—as he is
enabled, on the present principle, to ensure
all his saddles without any extra charge.
That a soft, easy saddle is desirable to all
persons who ride much, and particularly to
those who may not be favored with a very
pleasant horse; I presume all persons will
unhesitatingly patronize the spring saddles,
when they will be ensured as long as the
purchaser may deem necessary.
The elasticity of the Saddle acting in har•
mony with the symetry of the horse and
rider, not only affords ease to the man, but
incalculable advantage to the horse. All
persons of judgment and experience must
know, that a dead, 'inelastic weight on a
horsy is oppressive. The Spring in the
Girth affords the following advantages: Ist
Moving or yielding with the horse's chest in
brZiathing, no cramps or cholics or any dis
ease can rise therefrom. 2d. The girth will
outlast two or three of the common kind,
because the yielding ofthe spring on the sud
den expansion of the chest prevents the girth
from breaking, and saves the rider from fall
ing; many falls have been the fruits of break
ing girth*
GENTLEMEN and LAM ES are invi
ted to apply,. as the little difference in the
cost of these and the hard Saddles is so tri•
fling, and incomparable with the difference
in comfort and safety.
N. B. Saddlers in the country can be

of the Democratic party in the United States can

statistical observations on all the most important
interests of the country as caneut fail to prove of
very great value.
This portion oldie work will be separately peg.
ed so as to admit of binding by itself, and will be
furnished with a copious index, so that the U. S.
Magazine will also constitute a complete Annual
Register, on a scale unattempted before, and of
very great importance to all classes, not. only as
affording a current and combined viow,from month
to month, of the subjects which it will comprise,
but also for record and reference through future
years; the value of which will increase with the
duration of the work.
Although in its political character The U. S.
Magazine addresses its claims to support particu
larly to the Democratic party, IL is hoped that its
other features referred to above—independently
of the desirable object of becoming acquainted
with the doctrines of an opponent thus advocated
—*ill recommend it to a liberal arid candid sup
port from all parties, and from the largo class of
' no party.
To promote the popular objects in view, and re
lying upon the united support of the democratic
party, as well as front othe.s,the price of subscrip
tion is fixed at the low rate of five dollars per an
num; while in mechanical arrangements, and in
size, quantity of matter, &c. the United States
Magazine will be placed ml a par at least with the
loading monthlies of England. Tito whole will
form three hug' octavo volumes each your
The subscription will be in all cases payable in
advance, or Ow the first year only) six dollars on
the delivery of the third number. 'rho absolute
necessity or this rule in such an establishment
will be obvious to all.
