I was standing in the broad, crowded street of a large chj. It was a cold win ter da j. -There had beea rain, aiid al though the sua was shining brightly, yet the long icicles -hang from . the eaves of the house, and the wheels rumbled loudly ts the j passed over the frozen ground. There was a clear, bright look, and a bold, bracing feeling in the air, and a keen west wind that quickened every ptep. Just then n poor, iil-clad child and her clothes were wcant and threadbare, she had no cloak nor shawl and her little bare feet looked red anJ" suffering. She could not have been more than eight years old. She car ried a bundle id iier cand. Poor Htllejsh - vermg child ! f, even I, who could do nothing else, pitied her. As she passed, her feet, slipped on the ice, and shi fell withm cry of pain; but she held her bun- uic tigutiy in ner nana ana jumped up and although she limped badly, attempted to run as before. "stop, l.ttJe girl, stop, said a sweet voice ; and a lady in u shawl, with furs around ner came out or a jeweler's store close by. " Poor little child," said she, "are you nurtf Sit down on these steps and tell me.'1 How I loved her and how beau tiful she looked! "Oh, I cannot," said the child, '! cannot wait, I am in such hurry. I have been to the shoemaker's, and mother must, finish this work to-niht or she will never get any more shoes to bBd.f "To-niffht !" said the beautiful wo- man, "to-night r' "Yes-" said the child, for the stranger's kind manner made her bold yes, for the great bull to night, and these satin slippers must be spangled, and" 5 N. The beautifurwomctn took the bundle from the child's liand and unrolled it. You do not know how her face flushed and turned pale: but I, yes I, looked into the bundle, and on the inside of the slipper saw a name a lady's name written, but I shall not tell it. AnJ where does your mother live, dear little girl So the child told her where, and then told her that her father was dead, and that ner little baby brother was sick, and that her mother bound shoes that they might have bread, that sometimes they were cold, and that her mother sometimes cried be cause she had no money to buy milk for her little sick brother. And then I saw that the lady's eyes were full of tears, and that she rolled up the bundle quickly, and gave it to the little girl, but gave her noth ing else no not even one sixpence, and turning away, went back into the store from which she had just come out. As she went away, I saw the glitter of a diamond pin and a handsome carriage rol led off. The little girl looked after her for a moment, and tnen witn ner utile bare feet colder than before, ran quickly away. I went with the little girl, and saw her go to a narrow damp street, and into a small dark, room, and I saw her mother her sad, faded mother, but with a face so sweet, so patient, hushing and soothing a sick baby. The baby slept, and the mother laid it on her lap, and the bundle was unrolled. A dim candle helped her with her work : for though it was not night, yet the room was very dark. Then, after a while she kis sed her little girl, and bade her wann her poor little frozen feet, over the scanty fire in the grate, and gave her a little piece of bread, for she had no more ; and then she heard her evening prayer and folded her tenderly to her bosom, blessed her and told her that the angels would take care of her. And the little child slept and dreamed oh ! such pleasant dreams of warm stockings -and new shoe but the mother sewed on ftlone. And, as the bright spangles glitter ing on the satin slippers, came there no repining at her heart ? When she thought of her child's bacold feet, and of the scant morsel of dry bread, which had not satisfied ber hunger, came there no visions of a bright room and gorgous clothing, and tL table loaded with all that is good and nice, one little portion of which spared to Ber would send warmth and comfort to her .humble dwelling ? Ifauch things come, and others of a pleasant cottage, and one who had dearly , loved her, and whose strong arm had kept want and trouble from her and her babes, but .who could never come back if these '- thoughts did come reptningly, came also another ; and the widow's hands were clasped, and her head bowed low in deep contrition, as I: heard ber say, "Father, forgive me, for tbou doest all things well, and I trust in thee." Just then the door 'ppend, and some one entered Was it an angel ? Her dress was of spotless white, and she -moved with noiseless step. She went to the bed where the sleeping child Jay, and covered U with soft, warm blank ets Then, presently, a fire sparkled in the grate, such as it had never known before. Then she passed gently before the mother, And drawing the unfinished slipper from her'hiad, placed there a purse of gold, and said in a voice like music, " Blass thy God,-Who is the God of the fatherless . and the widow" and she was gone ; only as she went out, heard her say " Better than diamond- Belter than diamonds." What CffuU she mean 1 I looked at the mother. " With clasped hands and streaming eyes, ' she blessed her God who had sent an an gei to Comfort her. So I went tosv bright ' room,' where' there Iras music and dancing ; and sweet flowers j and I saw young hap py faces and beautiful, women richly dres--ed, and sparkling with jewels ; but none . jbal i kne w, un til one passed . tne whose dree of simple 'white, with only a( rosebud oa her basotn, whose Toice--:' was- like - the sound of a silver line , Jfo spangled slip per, was glittering 6n feet foot ; but she moved las one that treadelh upon air,' and thevdiviqe... beauty of holiness had so glori fied lier face that I felt as I gazed upon ber that she was arrange! of Jod.

Hia great success in those long standing and diffi cult cases, such as were formerly considered incur able, is sufficient to commend him to the public' as worthy al the extensive patronage he has received. Within ihe last eight years, Dr. S. has treated more than 29,500 cases of Private Complaints, in thtir different forms and stages; a practice which no doubt exceeds that of ail other physicians now ad vertising in Baltimore, and not a single case is known where his directions were strictly followed, and medicines taken at reasonable time, without effecting a radical and permanent cure ; therefore, persons afflicted with diseases of the above njture, 'no miiiurnow difficult or long standing the case may be," would do well to call on Dr. Siuittit.hia office.

Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, London; graduate from one of the most eminent Colleges of the United Stales, and the greater part of whose life has bet nspent in the hospitals of London, Par is Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has effected some ofthe most astonishing cures that were ever known; many troubled with ringing in the head and ears w hen asleep, ereat nervoiifnsss, being alarmed st sudden sounds, and bushfulness. with frequent blushing. attended sometimes with derangement' mind, were cured immediately. TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICP Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured t i selves by private and improper indulgences, tht 1 1 cret and solitary habit which rules both body and mind, unfitting them for either business or society. These are some ofthe sad and melancholy effects produced by early habits of youth, viz: Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in the Head, Dimness of .Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irritability, Derange ment of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c. Mkstally. The fearful effects on the mind arc much to be dreaded ; Loss of Memory, Confusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil-Forebodings, Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust, Love of Soli tude, Timidity, dec, are some of the evilsproduced. Tfiousands ol person, of all agea, can now judge what is the cause of their declining health. Losing their vigor, becoming weak, pale and emaciated, have a singular appearance about the eyes', cough and symptoms of Consumption. DR. JOHNSTON'S IN VIGOR A TING REM EDY FOR GENITAL DEBILITY. This grand and important Remedy has restored strength and vigor to thousands of the most ner vous and debilitated, many of whom had lost all hopes, and been abandoned to die. By its complete invigorution of the Nervous System, the whole faculties become restored to their proper pswer and functions, and the fallen fabric of life raised up to beauty, eonsistency, and duration, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature decline to sound and pristine health. Oh, how hap.-y have hundreds of misgtiHlcu you ins been made who have been sud denly restored to health, from the devastations those terrific maladies wnich result from indistr lion. Such persons, before contemplating MARRIAGE. Should reflect that a sounj mind and body are the most necessary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed, without these, the journey through life becomes a weary pilgriinnpe, Ihe pros pect hourly darkens to the view the mind becomes shadowed with despair, ami filled with the melan cholly reflection, that the happiness of another be comes blighted w ith our own. Let no false delica cy prevent you, but apply immediately, and save yourself from the dreadful consequences of this ter rible malady.
