i Delivered by J. H. Gbat.
' Pupil of the Pennsylvania I Qstitution for the
instruction of the Blind, at their Exami
nation : "'
The bird, that nevex tried his wing,
. Can blithely hop nd sweetly sing, -.
Though prisoned in a narrow cage, . . ! ,
Till his bright feathers droop with age ;
'" So I," while never blessed with sight,
Shut out from Heaven's surrounding light,
Life's hours, and days, and years enjoy,
Though blind, a merry hearted boy.
That captive bird may never float
Through Heaven, or pour his thrilling note
'Mid shady groves, by pleasant streams
That sprinkleja the soft moonbeams ;
But he may gaily flutter round
Within his prison's scanty boand,
And give hi soul to song, for ho
. NejDr longs to taste sweet liberty.
Oh! may I not as happy dwell
Withm my unillumined cell!
SMay I not leap, Jmd sing, and play
And turn my constant night to day 7
1 never saw the sky, the sea;
The: earth was never green to me ;
Then why, Oh, why, should I repine
For blessings that were never mine. ,
Think not that blindness makes me sad,
My thoughts like- yours are often glad.
Parents I have who love me well
' . Their different vobes I can tell,
Though far and absent I can hear,
In dreams their music meet my ear.
Is there a star so dear above,
As the low voice of one you love !
I never saw my Father's face;
' Yet on his forehead when I place
My hand, and feel the wrinkles there,
Left less by time than anxious care,
I fear the world has sights of woe,
To knit the brows of manhood so.
I sjt upon my fathet's knee
He'djove me less if I could see.
I never saw my Mother's smile;.
Her gentle tones my heart beguile
; They fall, like distant melody, .r.
They are so. mild and sweet to me.
8he murmurs not my mother dear I
Though sometimes I have kiss'd the tear
From her soft cheek, to tell the joy
One smiling woTd would give her boy.
Right merry was I every day !
Fearless to run about and play
With sisters, brothers, friends and all,
To answer to their sudden call,
. To join the ring, to speed the chase,
To find each playmate's hiding-place,
And pass my hand across his brow
To tell him I could do it now ! 7
Yet though delightful flew the hours,
So passed in childhood's peaceful bowers,
When all were gone to school but I,
I used to sit at home and sigh ;
And though I never longed to view
The earth so green, the sky so blue,
I thought, I'd give the world to look
' -Along the pages of a book.
Now since I've learned to read and write,
My heart is filled with new delight
, A nd music too Can there be found
A sight so beautiful as sound 7
r . Tell me kind friends, in one short word,
Am i not like that captive bird. .
I live in song, and peace,, and joy,
Though blind, a mewy-hearted boy.
THE SON TO HIS MOTHER.
BY SAMUEL LOVER, ESQ..
There was a place in childhood that I remember well,
And there, a voice of sweetest tone bright fairy tales
did tell'; 4
And gentle words and fond embrace were given with
- joy to me, ' "
When I was in that happy place upon my mother's
knee.
When fairy tales were ended, " Good night !" she
softly said,
And kiss'd and laid me down to sleep wilhin my
tiny bed ; , "
And holy words she taught me there methinks I
, yet can see ,
- Her angel eyes, as close I knelt beside my mother's
knee. .
In die sickness of my childhood, the perils of my
. pame, r
The .sorrows of my riper years, the cares of ev'ry
time; . . :
When doubt or danger weighed me down, then
. pleading aII for me, "1
It was a fervent prayer to Heaven that' bent my.
mother's knee ! ' - .
f
And can I this remember, and . e'er forget to prove
The glow of holy gratitude the fondness of my
love 1 ,
When thou art feeble, mother, come rest thy arm
. . on me,
And Jet, thy eherish'd child support the aged moth-.

Surgical Cases, to which the Student has ac
cess at all hours. '
The College Infirmary, together yUh the
Alms House, Penitentiary and Armory (which
are under the charge of the Professors,) will
afford the Student an opportunity of witnessing
the various diseases incident to a Southern cli
mate. The abundance, of materials for Anato
mical purposes, and the reduced pripe at ft hich
they are furnished, will enable the Student to
acquire an intimate knowledge of the Anato
my of the human body, and the use of Surgical
Instruments.
During the last Winter Course of Lectures,
from the number of Surgical Cases admitted
into the Infirmary, the Professor of Surgery
was enabled lo exhibit before the class, nearly
all the important Surgical operations upon the
living subject ; and from the increasing popular

that hereafter the Surgical Cases in the House,

ANTI-BILIOUS PILLS.
FREQUENT applications ?from- those who
have confidence in "Beclcwith's Anti-Dyspeptic
Pills,". and in their Author, for a Pill of
more actively purgative properties,have induced
him to issue one calculated to supply the de
mand. These Pills are therefore designed expressly
as an active purgative, and possess highly Anti
Bilious qu .lities, yet without a particle pi Calo
mel, or any ether mineral. Calomel has been
omitted Irom no prejudice against it, when pre
scribed for individual cases by a judicious Phy
sician; but the Inventor protests against it in
combinations designed for popular use, for it
is well known to the Faculty, that most of the
objects desired in the employment of such arti
cles, can be attained without it, and that its too
common introduction into families for domestic
prescription, is often followed by consequences
injurious to the general health, if not destruc
tive to the constitution. They are hot offered
as a panacea they promise no cures but such
as are well known to follow a thorough action
upon the bowels; but whenever an active pur
gative is required (and there are few who dp,
not daily determine this fact for themselves.)
these Pills may be safely taken. As an Anti
DrspEpric they should not be taken dyspep
tics have no business ordinarily, with purga.
tives of this class. The laborer.thc hearty feed,
er, with sluggish bowe!s,the habitually bilious,
in short all who desire or need to have their
bowels urged to more active duty, may rely
upon the efficiency of these Pills.
They are prepared solely by Thos. L. Jump,
General Agent, Raleigh, handsomely put up in
tin boxes with directions, and for sale at the
North Carolina Book Store, also, at the Drug
Store of W. M. Mason & Co. in this City, and
by most of the Agents for the sale of 'Beckwith's
Anti-Dyspeptic Pills," throughout the United
States. Price, 25 cents per box.

With regard to Pedigree, I consider him a su

DEAR. SIR The Piano which you select,
'ed and forwarded to me made by Stodart,
Worcester and Dunham, New York, came safe
ly to band in fine order and perfectly in tune,
greatly to my surprise, as after leaving New Or
leans it passed through three several boats be
fore its arrival at Troy, a small town within
eight miles of my house from thence it was
handed by wagon. Nothing but the very great
care in packing, could bave insured its arrival
in such order. My daughter is much pleased
with it,-and considers is fully equal, if not su
perior, to the one I first purchased of you,
which good judges pronounced an excellent
one. lean with confidence recommend to those
wishing to purchase Pianos to rely on you, as
well to seJect, as to pack up I am certain
they will not be disappointed. '

$25 Reward
MY NEGRO BILL, sometimes called BILL
WYATT, ranaway from me last June
in Wake Forest, and I have reasons to think, is
now in Raleigh or its vicinity. Bill has had his
left arm cut off near his elbow, ia a bright Mu
latto, about 45 years of age, and is well known
about the City of Raleigh. I expect he will
pass as a free man, if he has left his old range.
The above reward will he given for apprehend

they so promote the insensible perspiration.and

tboughjjhe usual symptoms of a cold should

of a suitable dose at the next hour of bed-time
will almost invariably effect permanent rtlief,

been'inlroduced wherever it was found possible
to carry them, and there are but few towns that

Often have the cures performed by thismei

kind has ever received testimonials of higher
value than are attached to this.
They re in general use as a family medicine,
and there are thousands of families who declare
they are never satisfied unless they have a sup
