SEASON F0R REME.HBERING TnE PooR.


STEIN winter is come with his cold chilling breath,
= And the verdure has d opp'd from the trees
All nature seems touch'd with the finger of death,
And the streams are beginning 70 freeze
When wanton young lads DER the river can slide,
And FLORA attend ns no more
when in plenty you sit by good 6re-side,
Sure you ought to remember the Poor.
When the cold feathcr'd does in aecces descend
And whiten the prospect around
When the keen cutting winds from the north do attend
Hard incrustrating over the ground
When the poor harmless hare may be trac'd to tie
wood,
by her footsteps indented in SNOW;
When the lips and the fingers starting with blood;
When the marksn,en cock shooting 60.
when the poor robin cdbreast approaches the cot
When the cicles hang at the door
when the bowl smokes with something reyiyng and
hot
That's the time to remember the Poor.
when thaw shall cnsue and the waters increase,
And the winds shall violent grows
When the fishes from prison obtain release
When in danger the travellers 20,
When the rneadcws arc lid by the proud swelling
When the bridges are useful no more
When in health you enjoy every thing that is good ;
Can you grumbe to think on The poor.
Since death is depriv ID Of its all killing sting,
And the grave is triumphant no more
Saints, Angels and Men, Halelujahs should sing,
And "the RicH should remember the PooRw

TO THE PUBLICK,

The subscriber having been greatly benefited by
the use OF DIR. Rogers Vegetable Pulmonic Deter
gent, conceives it duty he the proprietor of
the medicine and the publick to state the following
facts,
For several years i have been much afflicted with
the Asthma and for weeks together have not been
bic to lie down in my bed seeing the above Medi-
cine advertised for sale at Mr.. TAPrANs Bookstore,
determined to make trial Of il, though have at
ways been much prejfdiced against Patent Medicines
in general, and confess had very little faith in this 7
but to my great surprise and Joy, after taking
the first dose, found myself SO much relieved as 10
sleep quietly III bed and have ever since, when in
the least troubled with the Asthma, found irnmsdi.
ate relief by its use.
do not hesitate, with confidence, to recommend
the Vegetable Detergent to all in the least afflicted
with the Asthma, and have no doubt but they will
receive great relief by the use of this invaluable
medicine. YIN. WALKER.

my wife. RuTa FENNER, was afflicted for consid.
cradle time, in the summer of 1871, with extreme
cough, pain in her side and loss OF appetite, which
reduced her TO such low and feeble state that she
was scarcely able to walk across the room, and to
all appearance fast nclinng TO quick consumption.
Immediately obtained one cake of Rogers Veget-
able Pulmonic Detergent, and after taking this ac-
cording to the directions, she was restored to her
usual state of health, which attribute, with tie
blessing OF God, to the above valuable medicine.
