A kissl-0, 'tis a magic spell
That wildly thrills the breast,
And bids it with emotion swell,
When lip to lip is pressed:
'Tis friendship's pledge—affection's seal—
And though a transient blies,
Yet still the coldest heart must feel
The rapture of a kiss.
A kite! 'tie love's own tender breath—
Fond language of tho heart—
The last communion hold in death,
When friends forever part.
When gloomy cares disturb the breast,
No charm can soothe like this;
The mind is sweetly lulled to rest,
Beneath a magic kiss.
. A kiss! yes, 'tie a dear delight,
Whose memory often cheerp,
And shines through clouds serenely bright,
Recalling hy•gone years:
Who bath not felt the bosom,
With an ecstatic bliss,
As loving souls together meet
In transports glowing kiss.
A Bosom Etna. —A female in Baltimore
was suspected recently by a storekeeper of
secreting in her bosom a skein of worsted,
and he masted upon searching her,to which
she objected fin spine time,but being threat.
ened with exposure, she consented. He
found concealed in her bosom tho worsted,
two shawls, a pair of stockings, and to his
astouishment, a pair of skates.
CONSECRATION OF CATHOLIC 81.911101'9.

on Sunday next at the same place, the Rev.
Richard Whalen will be consecrated Bishop

the tollowitig entertaining anecdote is told.
Some twelve months past, a member of
Congress from Maryland with some few
friends strolled into a new church that was
being built at Bath, Va. They found in it
only one workman, up to his elbows in the
mortar. Pray sir, asked they, who is the
architect of this church? I sir! Who is
the mason? I sir! Who is the pastor? I

BAD ORTIIOGRAPIIY. — The Newat k Dai•
ly Advertiser, in noticing the evils of bad
orthography, uses the following language:
"Our newspapers are doing , more, we
fear, to derange our orthography than Dr.
Webster will do .to arrange it. This
proverbial inaccuracy is doubtless owing
mainly to the carelessness or incompetence
of proof-readers, whose business it is to ex
ercise a watchful supervision over the prin
ters. The English papers are better paid,
and are consequently more accurate. They
are made up with greater care, every de
partment being under separate and compe
tent control, and the best of the London
prints undergo such careful supervision, that
they may be received as authority in or
thography. But. besides this general care
lessness, a long lkt of words might be so•
lectud which are almost habitually selected.
"Afterward and toward, for example, are
almost always printed with a final s. Allege
is spelled with a d nineteen times out of
twenty. jrystal is usually written with a
superfluous h; decrepit with a d; expense
with a c; practice for practise; prophecy
for prophesy—the authography of the verb
in both cases being mistaken for that of the
substantive. Vi alter and surviver are gen
erally spelt with an o. Tithe and cipher
are almost universally written with a y;
and twattle, a very good old English word,
lately dug up, is converted into twaddle."
The Hartford Courant says, "'we would
just remitid those whose trees were destroy
ed by worms last year, that this is the only
time for boring and placing sulpher in them.
We have never known the experiment to
fail when made before the sup rises, though
it is of convict entirely useless to do it after
ward."
A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun
says, that on Friday last Gen. Harrison
made an informal visit to the departments
of war and navy;at the latter, du incident
quite amusing occurred.—The press for
several days pet on the heads of depart
mews for office being almost unpreceden
ted, the Secretary gave positive orders to
the messenger, not to allow any one to en.
ter his room, without apprizing him who it
was that wished to have an intercourse with
him.—After a while, the old General ap
protiched, and Enquired if he could see the
Secretors; the messenger, not recognizing
the President replied that he could not, un
til ho had informed the Secretary who wish
ed see him. Some one standing by, whis-
pered to the messenger that this was the
President; the faithful fellow, however, said
that, "it did not matter—his orders were to
let no one enter without leave from the Sec.
reiary." The old General laughed hear
tily at the joke, and awarded him great
credit for being so faithful a sentinel.
OLDEN TIME.-An old gentleman by the
name of Benjamin Garrison, a resident of
our County, visited our place on Friday
last. Mr. G. is 103 years old, and is re•
markably active for a man of his years,
having rode twelve miles that morning to
transact some business in person.—Waynes

have had 25 guineas distributed amongst

chine in use and can assure the Farmers
and the Public 'that it is worthy of the
highest praise and patronage, as two horses
can do the work of four with more ease and
loss hands. It saves one half the labour
and performs the work in the best manner
possible. It possesses a decided advantage
over any other machine, being less liable to
get out of order, and easily to be removed.
To see it in operation is sufficient to satisfy
any one of its gloat utility and the propriety
of our statement.

GrpHE subscriber has just received a further
a supply of this vnluable medicine, which hue
gained a celebrity which few other articles bus
ever received in so short a limo as this; the sale
of which, has constantly increased, and will con.
tinue to increase, as its merits are made known.
This celebrated BALSAM OF HEALTH, is a modi•
cino and vegetable compound, warranted a safe
and effectual remedy for the cure of Dyspepsia,
and for the whole train ofdiseases resulting from,
and connected with a di.ordored condition of the
of the stomach and liver, or, derangement of the
digestive functions. As a family medicine it
stands unrivalled, and should be possessed by all
heads of families, particularly. by all those that
are subject to a constipation of the bowels: it ope
rates as a gentle aperient, gives a tone and ac
tion to the stomach and bowels, and enlivening
and invigorating the whole system. This Bal
sam of Health does not contain a particle of Mer
cury, but it is composed altogether of vegetable
matter, which renders it perfectly harmless, and
it is no hinderonco to business, nor any proper
customary employment and habits. The propri.
otor could give a great many certificates of cures
performed by this medicine in this advertisement,
If it did not occupy so much room; therefore he
deems it quite unnecessary, as all those w!.o wish
to see thorn can, by applying to his agent in this

" his peculiar method of treatment, for the preven

practice; sensible also of the happy effects resulting
to the community, from having confined himself en
tirely to the study and care of a class of diseases
which there is every reason 'to deplore are too prev

Dr COOKE continues to direct his mole attention
to the treatment of 'every disorder that occurs from
imprudence, whilst under the influence of intemper
ance or any other baneful excitement, and to the cure
of those dreadful maladies, which too often arise there
from. These sometimes commence in a'most simple

afterwards assume a more aggravated state of disease,
occasioning' abscees ulceration, nodes. Caries of the
bones. paned° syphilis, cancer, premature old age.
and too often end In a protracted ineurable.state of
miserable existence.
Dr. COOKE though professing exclusively the stu

proper to inform his friends and the public la general,
in justice to his prefessionid Character, that he was
properly educated and regularly ielatiated into every
branch of the profession as a general Practitioner in
Europe.
Dr. COOKE may be consulted therefore at all
times, as usual at his Offices, which are properly fit

Country patients residing at adistance—end all other
patients who prefer writing instead of a personal in
