They produce, when ta ken, a deep and Listing impression that thev stand at the head of all other prepar ed medicines of the day. Fevers, Liver affection-, Jaundice, head-ache, loss ol appetite, costiveness, female complaints, and every disease within the reach of hu man means; yield readily to the power ful, yet gentle operation of these pills. As a cathartic they are copious and free, as san anerient they are mild and certain. 1 .. asatoniclheyareprompt and invigorating, as an alterative they are superior to Calo- mel or any other known remedy, ami as ai purifyer of the blood ihey are unequalled in the history of medicines. There is no disease can withstand their life-giving en ergy when taken in time, or interrupt the system at all when they are administered as a preventative. During sickly sea sons, and the prevalence of epidemicks, their occasional use will preserve the body from attacks of disease. 50 cents per box. $54 per gros?.

A poor man, poorer none, am I, And walk the world alone Vet do I call a spirit free And cheerful heart my own. A gJeesomc child I played about My dear, dear parents hearth But grief has fallen upon my path Since Ihey arc laid in earth. I sec rich gardens round me bloom; I see the golden grain: My path is bare and barren all, Aiid trod WiLh toil and p:nn. Aiidyct, though sick at heart, Pll stand, Wrh re happy faces throng, And wish good morrow heartily To all that pass along. 0 bounteous God! thou leav'st me not To comfortless despair; There comes a gentle balm from heaven For every child of care. Siill in each dell thy sacred house Points mutely to the sky Thy organ and the choral song Arrest each passer by. Si ill shine the sun, the moon, the stars, With blessings even on me, And, when the evening bell rings out, Then, Lord, I speak with thee. One day shall to the good disclose Thy halls of joy and rest, 1 hen in my wedding robes even I Shall sent me as thy guest! From the Raleigh Standard. THE PRESIDENT. The President of liie United Slates was welcomed to the scat of government on the lfith instant, by a procession consisting chiefly of the working men of Washington and Georgetown. The President was received at the cnpitol, where he arrived at 11 o'clock and escorted to the Capitol Square, where he was addressed by Dr. N. P. Causin who had been selected for that purpose by the Committee of Arrange ments appointed by a meeting of the citi zens. After the President had replied, he was escorted to his residence, where he was addressed by James Lawson, esq. on behalf of his Democratic Fellow-citizens of the District in the following words: I have the honor and the pleasure, sir, to address you for, and on behalf of, your De mocratic Fellow-citizens, who have united together on the present occasion as a branch ff that party, and that paly only, which ha elevated you to your present exalted station. Perhaps, sir, ninc-tenthsof the body which I have the honor to represent, are composed of the working classes of the community. Among them are to be found the ingenious artisan, ihcindtistrious and skilful mechanic. The remainder are gentlemen ot various professions, who have deemed it far more honorable than degrading, to associate with a clas of individuals who form the bone and sinew of our country, and who may be emphatically styled its safeguard in peace, ! . C olrnmrili 1 1- U'irl I Our object, sir, is to tender you our mutual congratulations on the demonstra lions of respect and esteem which you have received, and the marked approbation, which has been so clearly indicated ot the whole course of your administration, and to extend to you a tvarm & heartfelt welcome to the metropolis ol this our common country! We conclude, sir, by expressing our best wishes for your health and happiness, and that your future course may be as suc cessful as the past. At the conclusion of this address, the President responded as follows: I thank you kindly, sir, and those in whose behalf you have addressed, me for the very cordial welcome with which you have been pleased to distinguish my return to the seat of Government, and for the favorable opinion which they have author ized you to express of my official acts. My sentiments are, I hope, too well undersood to render it necessary to say that there is no portion of my fellow-citizens, upon whose good opinion I place a hioher value, or whose welfare it gives me more pleasure to promote, than those of the laboring classes, in whose behalf you have spoken, and to whose importance in the general scale of society you have done no more than justice. Gen. Jackson's letter to the Franklin Committee. The citizens of Franklin I having heard that General Jackson would (attend the Huntsville dinner, held a meet- nig and appointed a committee of which 'he Hon. L Tunvv wns chairman to invite him to tike Winclvstcr in his route home ward and dine there. To the letter of invitation General Jackson replied as fol lows: We copy from the Central Ga zette Xlt.sirilte Union. Ihrm it air,", Se pt. M, IS 3 9. Gentl?men: 1 hive the honor to ac knowledge the receipt of your favor of the 9th ins'anl, communicating to me the pro c.e lingsofaportion of the citizensof Frank lin county, i-i which I am invited to par take of a dinner with them, should I attend the one offered to (.'ol. Polk on the 20ih at IIimLsvTe. In'conseq'icnc of the infirm state of my health it will not be in my power to visit mv friends in Alabama as was expected . and the sunt' reason peventsan acceptance of your kind invitation. For the liberal and indulgent terms in which yen are pleased to advert to my public conducJ in connection with the re cut elections in this Stale I pray you to accept my heartfelt th inks. Perceiving that an clfort. was making to detaeh Tennessee from the Republican connections, and obtain her sanction of the principles which have characterised the Federal party, I could not bean uninterested spectator of the content which it produced. 1 rejoice with you that the results so honor able to the intelligence and firmness of our citizens, sustains so fully the character which the State has acquired by her steady co-operation heretofore with the other Republican sisters of the Union. 1 beg you, gentlemen, to assure my old companions and associates in Franklin, ol my sincere regret that it is not in my power to visit and shake them by the hand once more. They have my prayers for their health and prosperity. I am, 'Try respectfully, Vour obedient servant, ANDREW JACKSON. Messrs. II. L. Turney, & others, Com. JThc Richmond Enquirer hrings the cheering news that the Democratic candi date, Mr. Thompson, has triumphed in the Kauawha district.

(fJThe Louisville Gazette notices an improvement in machinery that' promises to be important. The invention is credit ed to a couple of young gentlemen, of Old ham co. Kentucky, who have been enga ged fer some time in the business of mil lers. The eflect of the improvement is to concentrate the weight of machinery into power. The inventors confidently assert, that a steam engine of fifty horse power, can be run by the use of only one horse power acting upon the fly wheel. One of t hem was on a visi: to Louisville, for the purpose of having the experiment fairly tes ted. N. Orleans Bulletin. JThe Rev. J. 15.

A woman in Gibson county, Indiana, recently sent three of her children for some eggs, to a hen's nest, a few yards from her house while she remained at a wash-tub, also to t.ike care of a younger child. The child ren ran eagerly to the nest, and thrust their hands into it, when a large copper-head snake, that was lying in it, being thus dis turbed, attacked and bit the whole three. The mother hearing their screams, rushed to their assistance, and during her absence the youngest found its way to the wash tub and was drowned. To add to the moth er's distress, in two hours after, the three who were bitten bv the snake died. (TA distressing accident occurred a few days since, on the Little Schuylkill and Cotawissa Rail Road. A young man na med Fisher, fell from the top of a high bridge, into the vale below, a distance of more than eighty feet, and was so much bruised, that he died in four hours. It is stated that oh the morning of the same day, he told a companion, he had a pre sentment on his mind, that if he went on the bridge that day, he would fall and bo killed. Philad. Sat. Cour.
