Extract from Herbert's wierd Wanderer of
JutIand.l

Death Bed al Jrlin,s .lfother

JutIand.
Death Bed of Julia's Mother.
WINTRY and bleak was the sierra's brow,
And thy black ridge, cordOva, capp'd with
snow,
Deep sigh'd the gale through swift-borne
clouds serene
The moonlight stream'd upon that lonely
scene,
silvering the glens beneath; white far and
wide
Nights shadows fitted DER the mountains side.
Bull on cherries chamber fell its raw.
Where, pale and almost spent, a matron Law.
0fourntuf her look; upon her bosom prest
Both hands were clasp'd the breath scarce
heav'd her breast.
rIxt upon one, who neither mov,d nor spoke,
Her eyes seem'd heavens last blessings TO in
woke.
One painful thought alone appear'd to stay
The parting soul, and crav'd some brief delay;
While ne, her partner in each earthly care,
sat cnain'd to grief, and conquered by des-
pair.
Behind stood one, whose mein some pity wore,
And, though unblest his Office, still forbore
BY his sad prisoner, waiting for the close
OF LIES last scene in that abode of woes.
Zen the hard hand of Justice dar'd not strive
40 break that tie which nature soon must rive.
Nor long the pause her glass was nearly run.
der limbs unnerv'd, her strength almost fore
done.
Ills said, strong wishes can in deaths despight
Arrest the spirit and deny his right
But soon the spell must pass; without groan
her weak pulse ceas'd; that last desire was
gone.
Then rose the shrek of one to whom the view
OF death and the hearts agony were new,
Her own sweet Julia she, who DER her bed
Had watch'd, Responding, and now saw her
dead.
Each moment had foretold it but that grief,
So sure and present now was past believe.
Say ye, who early DER mothers grave
Have seen the plumed pomp of burial wave,
How oft your fancy unconstrain'd by wo
Has seem'd to hear her CHERISHED accents flow !.
Fiew'd her lov'd couch, void room, or wonted
chair,
And almost thought to see her image there!
Perchance that incredulity of grief
To desolation brings some faint relief,
Oeludes the pang, and soothes the youthful
heart
With that fond hope from which it will not
part.

NHE article here recommend
ed must not be considered as adding one
more number to the already extensive cata-
logue Of advertised Medicines: 1t is in fact an
important improvement only in iell-known
composition.
The Embrocation contains three ofthe most
valuable articles to be met with in the whole
circle o. Medicine, never before employed in
any other Opodeldoc, in addition to the other
ingredients usually made use of in the hard
kind, and will be found on experiment at least
of three times its strength and effect. The
money will be cheertully refunded to those
who, after having used one bottle, may think
differently.
The Hon. SAMUEL L. MITCHELL. M. d. LII.
ID. one Of the first Medical Professors in the
State of New York, has given certificate in
IFS tavour-such authority you will not dispute.
Certificates also, from several respectable
citizens, are annexed to the directions, who
have received the greatest benefit from tbs
Improved Liquid Opodeldoc,' when they had
previously used the hard kind to no purpose
whatever. This article is asserted to be a
sovereign remedy in Bruises, Sprains, Gout,
Rheumatism, Cramp, Numbness, Stiffness OF
Weakness of the Neck or Joints, slight Burns.
Scalds, fresh Wounds, Chilblains, &c.
For the use of Horses and Cattle in these
cases, it may be considered as inestmable.
As the whole family of mankind are liable
to these casualties, no prudent person should
be without bottle of it in their house.
II is prepared by j. p. WHiTWELL, whose
name is impressed on each bottle-without
which it is not genuine.

conjunction with the external application of it,

The .Mechanick.


There is no condition in life better
calculated than that of laborious me-
chanick, for man to feel and realize a
proper sense of his own dignity and in
! dependence. He retires to his NEEDS
from the fatigues of the day, with full
conviction that his sturdy hand has earn
ed the refreshments of his table He
feels that his wealthy Neighbour can
not enjoy even bis opulence without his
assistance. His time never hangs upon
his hands and his robust frame and his
hardy sinews attest how essential this
exercise is to the health of his body
He progresses onward, as it were by
inches, to competence !; and he learns
the practical lesson of economy and
frugality in his family expenditures
Removed from the vices and gorgeous
temptations of a fashionable life, he
knows how to bride his ambition he
feels the blessings of the family hearth,
and can look without sigh on the gau-
dy pageantry of the day. This is
true moral independence-this curb on
our unruly desires, this Temperance in
the exercise Of all our wishes, are the
very materials that constitute valuable
citizens. 1t should be the pride, as I'M
doubtedly it is the right of a labouring
man TO indulge in such ideas. Boys that
are put out as apprentices to mechan-
ical profession are taken many times
from state of poverty and ignorance,
and prepared for fulfilling afterwards
honorable stations. If they would but
properly comprehend the full extent of
such benefits, they would see nothing
but their future honour, dignity and in
dependence in their own indentures.-
They are learning, not as they are too
prone to believe, the alphabet of seryi-
tude and degradation, but the rudiments
of faith, industry, punctuality, economy,
and all those virtues that decorate and
adorn the family hearth. They are
now giving pledges to their masters of
what their future character will be,
when they, in their turn, will be called
upon to perform their part on the grand
theatre of human life. 1t is noble
sight, and one of the best symptoms of
the long continuance of orr free repub-
ican institutions, when we behold APP
prentices alert, vigilant, and industri-
Gus, prompt to learn and jealous to ex-
eel. They may hear of naval and of
military glory but theirs is glory more
permanent. The State calls but here
and there, and now and then, for heroes
this is only during The period Of car
mage and war, Of butchery and of blood
The glory of labouring man is con-
nected with all that is dear in human
life-it is identified with peace and con-
tentment, with the early smoke that
arises from the family cottage, with the
bleat of'tbe merry hocks,. with the RI
pening harvest that seems TO nod as il
Impatient of the sickle. These tri-
umphs are not won by blood and car
mage they are pacifck victories, and
lett be remembered that the Saviour

Sterling Land for Sale.
TINE Subscriber owns a Farm

THE Subscriber owns a Farm
n in the Town Of Sterling, in this Coun-
ty, consisting of 40 acres of Land, lying to-
gether. One half of this Tract is covered with
Wood, and the other half is Improved Land
The principal part of the cleared halfis excel
lent Grazing and Grass Land, with some Land
well adapted to Grain. The present owner is
unwilling to monopolize the good Land Of Ster-
ling; especially as his other avocatons will
not permit him to carry on SO large Farm ad-
vantageously, either to himself or to the Land.
lie offers, therefore, to sell two or three hum
bred acres, including about an equal quantity
OF Wood and Cleared Land, in lots TO suit
purchasers.
1t any person, whose exclusive occu-
patton is farming, wishes TO procure, for small
sum OF money, large tract Of Land, capa-
BILE of being rendered doubly and even treb-
ly valuable, by little good husbandry-a
Farm, the single article OF growing Wood on
which, would bring in the market more than
the price OF the Farm and the Buildings on
which cost more than half the money the Sub
scrlber asks for the whole-a tract of Land,
situated in place where Produce of all kinds
IS at least ~ per cent. higher than at the
COURTHOUSE IN Worcester; lying within 9
miles OF the street in Worcester, where the
contemplated Canal from Worcester to Provi-
dence is to commence and within miles Of
two fiourishins manufacturing establishments
such person will probably find no more
advantageous purchase in the Commonwealth
than this Farm; the whole of which together,
including the Buildings, the Subscriber will
sell for $l4 an acre, and give reasonable
payday for part of the purchase money, or the
whole, as the purchaser may wish.-The
Buildings on the Farm are two Dwelling Hou-
ses-three Barns-two large Sheds, fitted for
conveniently keeping large flock Of Sheep;
besides other OUT uildings.--For more par
ticular information, application may be made
to the Subscriber, in Worcester, or to JOHN H.
