33TIC
TRUE HEARTS.
BY JEAN L. BRL'LE.
Give me true hearts, give me fond eyes
Where true affection's sparkle lies.
Where truth shines like the moonlit skies,
Alive with burning stars ;
Give ine a heart with honest beat.
Where love's glad waves rejoicing meet,
And kindly thoughts like angels greet,
A heart no envy mars ;
That throws its glean across the face,
With cheerful and seraphic grace,
That lightens up the darkest place.
And smoothes life's rugged jars.
Give me true hearts, that, like the sun,
Enliven all they shine upon.
And lips, from which soft phrases run
Like summer's warbling streams.
Look up sad heart see! earth how fair,
Though round tin-- coils that make Despair
Behold ! God has thee in his care.
Then nurse joy's happy beam!
The blossoms burst their skacklcs now,
And dance like elfiaa om emch bough.
The birds sing in day a golden glow.
Then hope, heart hope and dream.
RULES OF ETIQUETTE.
WQm GENTI.KMKN AT PAUT1E8.
Act very hrazingly.
Stare round amazingly,
Bow very puppi.h-Iy

Sent round the cards to you,
Then you may condescend
Three or four words to spend,
Ou some aototietji

Or irltwper quite kiHingly

Passes time llirtingly,
Laughingly oh, certainly !
Whispering till ringlets fall
Over your neck and al ;

Spinning half crazy, oh !
This is propriety
Out in society.
"Pat and thk Kkow Nothings." One
afternoon, hist September, daring the time
of the great political excitement, as I was
wending my way homeward along the
wharf, my attention was called to a new
steam process for loading and discharging
the freights from the holds of vessels.
Whilst admiring the beautiful machinery
then iu operation, with its innumerable
wheels spinning and buzzing around,
performing the labor of some twenty men,
my eyes fell upon a rather distressed looking
on of Erin, from whom I heard the
following soliloquy:
"Ah!'' he exclaimed, "you whirly-gig vou;
it is yourself that takes the bread out of
twenty of me honest countrymen's mouths
inny day you work; but be jabers there is
one consolation after all; you caiit vote the
Know Nothing ticket!"
m
Medical Fees. It seems to have been
thought something unprecedented that
Dubois should have received one thousand
seven huudred pounds for his attendance on
the Empress of the French during her
confinement, as mentioned some time ago.
Yet, on turning over the pages of Wadd,
more remarkable instances of large fees will
be found. Dimsdale, for his inoculation of
the Empress of Russia and her son, was
made a lhiron of the Empire, with a present
of twelve thousand pounds, and a pension of
hvo huudred pounds per annum. Or.
"Willis, for his successful attendance on
George the Third, was rewarded by one
thousand five hundred pounds per annum,
for twenty yean, and six hundred and fifty
JKwnds per annum to his son for life. The
other physicians had thirty guineas each
visit to Windsor, and ten guineas each visit
to Kew. In 1737 the physicians who
attended Queen Caroline had five hundred
guineas, and the surgeons three hundred
guineas each.
What a Kewbpapbk ioes rxnt Noth
ing. The following article should bo road
and pondered well by every man who takes
a newspaper without paying for it : The
result of my observation enables mo to
state, as a fact that the publishers of news
papers are more poorly paid than any class
of men iu the United States, who invest an
equal amount of labor, capital and thought.
They are expected to do more service for
loss pay, to stand moro sponging and "dead
heading," to puff and defend more people
without feo or hope of reward, than any
other class.
They credit wider and longer, get oftener
cheated; suffer moro pecuniary loss; are
oftener the victims of misplaced confidence,
than auy other calling in the community.
JVople pay a printer's bill more reluctantly
than any other. It goes harder with them
to expend a dollar on a valuable newspaper,
than ten on the needless gewgaw ; yet every
body avails himself of the use of the editor's
pen and the printers' ink.
How many professional and political rep
utations and fortunes have been made and
sustained by the friendly, though unrequit
ed, pen of the editor ?
How many embryo towns and cities have
been brought into notice, and puffed into
posterity by the press ? How many rail
roads, now in successful operation, would
have foundered but for the assistance of the
lever that moves the world ; " in short,
what branch of industry or activity has not
been promoted, stimulated and defeuded by
the press 1
And who has tendered it more thau a mis
erable pittance for its mighty sen ices ?
The bazaars of fashion and the haunts of
appetite aud dissipation, are thronged with
an eager crowd, bearing gold in their palms,
and the commodities there needed are sold
at enormous profits, though intrinsically
worthless, and paid for with scrupulous
punctuality ; while the counting room of the
newspaper is the seat of jewing, cheapening,
trade, orders and pennies. It is made a
point of honor to liquidate a grog bill, but
not of dishonor to repudiate a printer's bill.
VACCINATION.
Dr. Simon, 1'hysician to the Board of
Health, Birmingham, Eng., in a late report
in favor of vaccination goes fully into the
history of its adoption in vorious countries,
aud, among other results, gives the following
summary:
In Sweden, the death from small-pox,
before vaccination was introduced, averaged
2,0.30 annually to each million of the
pojmlation; now the deaths from the same
cause are only 1 5 per million annually. In
Westphalia the decrease has been from
2,G13 to 114; in Bohemia, Moravia, and
Austrian Silesia, from 4000 to 200. From
such information as exists it seems probable
that the small-pox death-rate of London
within the bills of mortality during the
eighteenth century ranged from 3000 to
5000. For the years 1811-53 the average
deaths from unall-pox were only 304; in
1854, only 149; and in 1S55, only 132. It
is the same in the army and navy, aud
Dr. Balfour, in an important paper appended
to I r. Simon's report, shows that the
mortality from the small-pox in the navy
is not a third, and in the army not a
fourth, of the London rates. The experience
of the Royal Military Asylum shows that
in 48 years, only four deaths from small-pox
have occurred among 5774 boys, and these
were of non-vaccinated boys. The answers
tc questions upon these points from 359 of
the most eminent physicians and surgeons
in the United Kingdom go to support
all that is enforced by Dr. Simon in his
report
A remarkably ugly man, as con
ceited as silly, said to a lato Philadelphia
wag who had wit enough for everything
but making money, 'Why Smith, how thin
you arc! You'll never pay the debt of
nature, Fin afraid, you will dry up and
blow away., Well, you will pay the debt
at all events; for vou ow e nature so little.
