THE GRANDFATHER MOUNTAIN.
Composed by a Fanner To years old, who ! near
the -Mountain.
Hail thou Grandfather, in thy might,
Thy craggy peaks, thy towering height,
Far and wide extends thy fame,
And many thousand- lisp thy name.
Thou giant monarch of the twain,
With time began thy peaceful reign;
The little hillocks round thee greet,
Like waiting subjects at thy feet.
Pile upon pile the cliff- arise
And seem to mingle with the skies,
And round thy ancient crest display
Their waving locks of n-ver'd gray.
Though vivid lightnings o'er thee flash,
And deep-toned thunder round thee crash,
And raging tempests earth doth shake,
Thej ne'er thy culm repose can break.
Thou, in thy craggy bosom, rear
The prowling wolf and savage bear,
While the wild (h er thy herbage crop,
And foxes sport upon thy top.
Aroond thy breast wild roses grow,
And groves of balsam fan thy brow,
While rivers trickling from thy feet,
To distant lands and climes retreat.
Thy costume changes with the year:
In Autumn yellow robes appear,
Hut witli December's cntting blast,
A snowy mantle 's o'er thee cast.
Thy beauteous grandeur we admire,
!ut more the Power that built thy spire.
For thy proud form would scarce be miss'd
If blotted from creation's list.
COUNTRY BOYS.
Country lads often feel that their lot is a hard
. 1 hey see city hreu youngsters on
i hey see city breu youngsters on then
travels and their sprees at t lie age of fourteen !
veritable young gentlemen, with :i finished exterior,
a seirar and a cane. The voans farmer at the
same age finds himself with a hoe in hand and a
cheap straw hat on his head, sweating among the
lulls ol coin, lie is ireuent!y envious of h is city
brother whisking past him in the cars with kid
gloves, delicate ringlets, and plenty of money in
his pocket.
Mind your corn, boy; hoe it out clean, keep
steadily to the labor you have in hand, do it well,
and in time your good days will come too. If
you find farming is not suited to your taste, or
your strength, or circumstances if you like
mechanism hetier, or have a capacity for business,
whatever eventually you may engage in, it is all
the same, you have begun right. The city blades
have begun wrong; and in due time you will see it.
Their lathers ami mothers will, in the end, see it
too. o not feel envious of the pleasures that a
hothouse man enjoys; hut remember, not in a
malicious, but sober spirit, that such plants wither
early. JJy the time you have act ui red fixed habits '
ofindustry, and acquired a Corresponding perfection
of mind and hotly, your delicately reared eotemporary
ofthe town begins to feel the debilitating effects
of idleness and dissipation, lie is not alone to
blame for a weak body and a profitless mind; it is
the result oi a system; but he cannot escape from
its effects; these be must endure for himself in
his own person. His father may be a professional
man, or a merchant, or may be merely rich; the
chances are fifty against one that the son will not
rep! ice his father. Such is the result of well
settled experience; business falls into the hands of
those who are most competent; it does not descend
to heirs. It is the country boys after all who do
the city business. Observing men have often
stated this fact; and iutjtiire into the origin of
Cleveland, or Boston, or New York, you will find
it to be so. All external circumstances are in
favor of the son or the clerk succeeding to the
trade of the ol i linn ; but the son seldom, almost
never, dtes in the position ol a partuer of the house.
Why is it? Simply because habitual industry is
wanting; habitual indulgence is not wanting.
A ith all the external odds against it, the country
furnishes the cities their principal business men.
If intelligent, faithful and persevering, and above
all, moral, honest, steady, cheerful and coatented,
the chances are that the lad with the hoe will
eventually do the business of the father of the lad
in gloves, who is now luxuriating iu his travels.

TROUBLES ABOUT MARBIAUfc IN ROY AL ClBCLES.
Aii offer ot man iasre in Knuland has been reeentlv
made by the Puke ot Rutland to the Princess
Mary, sister of the Dnke of Cambridge. The
Trim-ess, whose affability and good humor are
deemed her chief attractions, docs not conceal her
wish to accept her only suitor. The Puke is neither
a Very wi:e or very handsome man; but he is very
rich, very well bred, and very amiable. In short,
he would probably make her an excellent husband,
and she would make him an excellent wife.
Nevertheless, it seems it must not be. The consent
of the parties thentselresis, under the circumstances,
not enough. y the provisions of the Royal
Marriage Act, passed some ninety years ago, to
gratify the tyrannic will of George 111, no member
ot the reigning family can legally contract matri-

declared. Her Majesty's ideas of the ascendancy
which her notions of State policy ought to have in
all matters of the kind, which are somewhat like '
those of her grandfather, resolutely refuses to
allow any mingling of royal blood with that of her
nobles, the fear oi' seeing some of her own
innocent ofi'sprinLr follow the example of her uncles
and graml-iineles, governs het ahsolutelv; and the
requisite license has conseqoentlj been refused to
her unhappy cousin, who appears destined to
wither and pine ou the lruitless stem. iueh are

"I have used Jacob's Cordial in my family, and have
found it a most efficient, and in my judgment, a valu
able remedy. Hon. HIRAM WARNER,
Judge of Supreme Court, Ga.
'It gives me pleasure in being able to recommend
Jacob's Cordial: my own personal experience, and the
experience of my neighbors ar.d friends around me, is a
sufficient guarantee for me to believe it to be all that
it purports to be, via: a sovereign remedy.
Wm. II. Underwood,
Formerly Judge of Superior Court, Cherokee Circuit.''
"I take great pleasure in recommending this invalua
ble medicine to all afflicted with bowel diseases, for
which I believe it to be a sovereign remedy decidedly
superior to anything ever tried by me.
A. A. Gailihnc.
Deputy G. M. of the Grand Lodge of Ga.''
' I have used Jacob's Cordial in my family, and this,
with all I hear about it as a remedy bv those who have
tried it, induces me to believe that it stands at the head i
of every preperation of the kind, and I would recom
mend its use in the diseases for which it is compounded.
Mii.ks G. Dobbins.
Cashier of the State Rank of Georgia, Griffin."
" If there is any credibility in human testimony, Ja-
cob's Cordial must stand preeminent above all other
preparations for the cure of Dowel Diseases. From the
mass of testimony in its favor coming in from all quar- :
ters. it must be far in advance, as a curative agent, ot j
most if not all other 'patent' preparations.
A. Fleming,
Cashier Marine and Fire Insurance Bank. Griffin.'"
' This efficient remedy is travelling into celebrity as :
fast as Bonaparte pushed his column" into Russia, and
gaining commendation wherever used.'" Georgia Jeffcr-si-nian.
