the ,paintings- most elegantly. He was no
novice who designed it. From the elevation
around this Gallery, a most grand view of
the horse-ring, together with the whole
grounds, can be had by looking Westward.
The Ring is a third mile elipse, as well
adapted for trotting, as it is ill shaped for
racing. Over against us on the other side
of the ring, as we are supposed now to stand,
a great bank of seats were erected soinething
after the manner of an Amphitheatre. None
but ladies and clergymen, were permitted to
occupy these seats free; all other 'persons
paid a dime for the favor. Cheap enough.
I might tell you, , Messrs. Editors; about
the fine displays of live stock, in the form of
horses, cattle, mules, bogs, sheep, and Shang

The Two Rules, and how , they Worked.
" Here are two rules . for yciu, Fitd," said
Giles Warner, , -looking up from the paper he
was reading, and addressing %lounger broth.
er, who was sitting by the stove, playing with
a favorite dog,
" Well, what are they F lees have them,"
said Fred, suspending his spurt with the
dog.
" The first is, 'Never , get vexed with
anything you , min help' _ ,The second is,
'Neer get vexed with anything you can't
help."' •
" Are not'these' rules as applicable to` you
as to me?" inquired Fred,,_archly.
"No doubt of that," replied Giles, good
humoredly ; " but then it is so much easier
to hand over I 4 piece of good' hdvioe' to an
other than to keep it for one's own use. It
is a kindl of generosity that don't require
any self denial." ,Fred laughed.
"But what ray you," continued Giles,
"to these rules? Bow would it work lf
should adopt them . ?" •
"I think tkey take a pretty ears and
clean sweep," maid Fred. " They don't
leave a fellow any chance at all to get vexed."
"That might be an objection to them,"
said Giles, "if any one was. wiser, better,
or, happier for getting vexed. I think they
are sensible rules. It ie foolish to vex our.:
selves about anything that , can >be helperk
and it is useless to vex ourselves about what
can't,be helped. Let us assist each other
to, remember and obey thee& two simple
rules. What say you
" I'll agree to it," -said „ Fred; , who was
usually'ready to agree to any. thing his bro
ther proposed, if it was only proposed good
humoredly.
” That's too bad I" exclaimed- Fred r the
next morning, while making his prepare.
Lions for sobool.
" What is the matter ?" inquired Giles.
," I have broken my shoe string, and it is
vexations; I am in such a burry."
It is vexations, no doubt," replied Giles;
"but you must not get :vexed.; for this is
one of the things that can be helped. You
can find a string, in the left corner of the
upper .drawer of mother's bureau
" Rut we "shall , be late at. school;"' said
Fred
"No we , shan't," sAid Giles. "We shall'
only-have to walk a little faster. Besides,
if you keep cool, you will find the string,
and put it in, much :moiler than you can if
you become vexed. and worried."
"That's true," said Fred, as he started
for the etriog, quite restored to good humor.
Several opportunities occurred- during the
day for putting into practice the newly:
adopted rules The last was this :
In the ' , evening, 'Giles broke the blade of
his knife, while , whittling .a hard--pieoeo,of
wood.'
"It -can't be - helped," Said Fred, " so
you.m i
ust not get vexed about t.
" It might have tieen helphd," said Giles,
" but I can do better. than to fret about it.
I can learn a lesion of care, for the future,
wbich may some 'day save a knife more valu
able than this. These rates work- well.
Let's: try them to morrow'?',' ' '
The next morning Fred devoted-an hour
before school to writing a composition.
After he had written half a dozen lines, , his ,
mother called. hint - off 'to do something for
her. During- his absenoc k his Lucy ,
made use. of .his pen.. and ink, to write her
name kr a school-book. In doing this, she
carelessly lit:fall - a drop of ink on the page
he was mriting. 7 Fred - returned: - while.ohe
was busily employed in doing what ehe could
to , roPair - the,misehief.
" You bare .made-a great-blot on my com
position,".he exclaimed, looking) over -her
shoulder.'
-"J . am very eorry. , I did-notmean 'to do
it," said Lucy.
Fred was so vexed that he would - have
answered his -slater very-roughly,. if Giles
had not interpoood.
q-Take youlnow ..the"thing
sr donei`se'd ain't be helped.
Fred tried hard to suppress his vexation. ,
" I know it was an aoeident," he said pleas- ,
antly, after a brief 'struggle with hinfself. -
Lucy left the room and Fred sat down'
again' to his composition. ' After a 'moment,;
he looked , up. "No great harm has been
done, after all," he said. " Two ` or three
alterations are much-needed, and, if I write'
it over again, I can make them."
"Se muck for a cool head, and not get
ting vexed," said Giles, , laughing. " Our
rules work well."
At night, Fred tore -his' 'pants while
climbing over a fence.
" That's too 'bad," said. he.
"It.ean be helped," said Giles; "they
can be mended."
" The way to help it is 'what troubles
me," said Fred. - "I don't, like to ask moth.
er; she has so much to do."
Giles proposed that Fred shouldz get ' , over
the difficulty by asking Lucy to do the 'job
for him, as '.her mother bad , learned her =to
mend very-meetly. = Fred was : at first not
disposed to adopt this measure. Ile. knew

significantly at Gilei when he saw liow his.
`sister was occupied; but he concluded he
had- gone too "=far to • retreat, and must- make;
a bold push.
"I 'wish to . aik a great favor of you,

D n. R. A. WILSON'S PILLS.
Raving retired from the practice of medicine, I may be
permitted to my that it has Men to the lot or but few
persons It, have - enjoyed so liberal or large a Pbare or
obstetrical practice am; my own has been for the host thirty
or forty yearn.
The experience of that long perind of active life, and the
fact of my .having been twice, since 1830. Immolated with
Dr. R. A.. Wilson, in the practice of medicine, (le both „
period of rive years,) enables me to judge fully of the merits
of his pills.
Bo convenient, so efficient, and yet no safe, did I esteem
these pills, that for the last five years in practice, ter the
cure of chronic diseases :of whatever name and these of
females In particular, I` have used more of them than all
other medmines. Like every other median e, these must
fail in some instances, but in my bands there has been ion
disappointment and more satisfaction in tbeadmluistration
of this one remedy than of all others—its good effects
sometimes quite astonishing
If my patient reqnired •ts safe aperient medicine. either
before or after parttaition, the Wilson's Pills were just tie
thing . I wanted.
If a dyspeptic acid conditiOn• of the' stomach, eunbined
with costiveness, or inactivity.of the liver, constituted the
disease of my patient, the pills were just the thing
wanted:
If I treated a case requiring an emmenagogne, the Wil
son's Pills were just the thing I wanted.
If palpitation, headache, flushed countenance. or other
difficurties indicating a disturbance of the circulatory and
secretory systems, annoyed my patient' at the torn of life,
the Wilson a Pills were jest the thing I wanted.
Thus;withoutreepect to the name adieease might happen,
to wear at-the time I have had it under treatment, pann
ier indications- Or symptoms arising were always meet
promptly 'and meet balmily met by the Wilson's Pills.
That so great a number ,of diseases, and sometimes
apparently opposite ones, in which I have used those pins,
should be cured more readily by thern than by any other
remedy, maf at first seem strange-and contradictory, bat
why it is SO is 11,13 Clear to my mind as that a greet rattly
persons should become tliirsty, firm as many different
causes,and yet all require that eon and greatest of all
blessigs. water, to quenon'tbeir thirst.
in conclusion, it is due the reputation. of medicine ant
the public to say, decidedly and unconditionally, that the
Wilson's Pills are tbe only combination I hare ever met
with in my long course of practice that:really possess any
thing curative or specific for sick headache.
Yours, Slag DR. MILO ADAMS.

Wirson's Pais.-It will be seen by our advertising
columns that thewe pills have a recommendation more

Hepatitis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK MADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
FINA in the. right side, under the, edge- of
the ribs, increase on pressure ; sometimes
the pain is in the left side; the, patient is
rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes
the .pain is felt under the shoulder blade,
and it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for a
rheumatism hi the arm. The stomach is
afected with lois of appetite and sickness,
the bowels in general are costive, sometimes
alternative 'with lax; the tread is troubled
with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is gene
rally a considerable loss of memory, .accom
: • panied with a painful. - sensation of having
left undone something Which ought to have
been done. A slight; dry ckmgh is some
times an attendant. The patient complains
of weariness and debility; he is easily startled,
MS feet are cold or burnifg, and he com
plains of a prickly 'sensation of the skin ;
his spirits are low; and although he is satis
fied.that exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon , up fortitude
enough, to try it. In fact, he distrusts every
remedy. Several of rt.he above symptoms
attend the disease, but cases have occurred
where few of therm existed, yet examination
-of the body, after ;death, has shown the
LIVI3I. to have.been, extensively deranged.
