The first dear thing that i ever loved Was a mother's gentle eye, That smiled as 1 woke on the dreamy coach That cradled my infancy I never forgot ihe joyous thrill That smile in my spirit stirred, v' flor how it could charm me against my will Till i laughed like ajuyous bird. And the next lair thing that I ever loved V as a bunch of summer Mowers, With odors, and hues, and loveliness, Fresh as from Eden's bowers 1 never can find such hues again, Nor smell such a sweet perfume; And if there be odors as sweet as these, Tis 1 that have lost my bloom. And the next fair thing 1 was fond to love Is tenderer far to tell; 'Twas a voice, and a hand, and a gentle eye, That dazzled me with their spell, And the loveliest thing 1 had ic ved beiore Were only the landscape now On the canvass bright, where I pictured her In the glow of my early vow.

Their farms are kept exceedingly clean and neat; every foot of land is put to use, their farm, houses, and everything pertaining to the farm, are of the most substantial kind, and owing to the humid Uy of the climate, the country is always verd,nt which, with the neatly tnmmed ledger gives to its piclurescue beauty ,l-, T, . . , much i nave not seen in any outer coun- r, , 1 n England is now a practical science.

J David Hudson's Predicament. When Court was opened with the usual formalities, a grand middle aged mulatto gentleman who had been seated inside the bar, awaiting the arrival of His Hon or arose and addressed the bench, in pret ty good language, to the following ef-fecti-- "My name . is David Hudson.

"Surely," said Mr. Hudson, yru must acknowledge that it was a severe trial. After a year of patient expectation, to find that 1 was destined to remain child less ami to be the last of my family.

WILD CHERRY AND SARSAPARILIA PILLS. nnilE startling drawback on nearly all medi cal agents has ever been that in their pro cess of purgation and purification they have also debilitated the system. Hence purgative me dicines were regarded as at best but a necessary evil, patients resorting to them for the relief of one disease at the expense of anotheri To obviate this, physicians have long sought for an agent that would at the same time purge, purify and strengthen; but their fforts were nearly fruitless, and they had almost despaired of success when the labors of science, and research were rewarded by a discovery which ,ully realized the fondest desires of the medical faculty, and which is justly regarded as one of the most important triumphs that pharmacy has ever achieved. This import ant desideratum is named Vegetable Universal Pills, which purify the blood and remove all corrupt and vitiated humors,:-and unhealthy accumulation j from the body in a manner never before rivalled, and which yet produce no weakness or lassitudo whatever; but on the contrary, t ?ne the stomach and invigorate the constitution during the pro gress of their operations! Or. Le Roy's pills in fact unite those heretofore irreconcileable but most desirable qualities, evacuation and invigora tion; for they are at the same time a strengthening purgative and a purifying tonici The two princi pal ingredients in Dr. Le Roy's pills are WILD CHERRY AND;SARSAPARILLA. so prepared that each promotes the beneficial effect i-'i i 1! i :!
