HEAVEN.

"This world is all fleeing show"
There is an hour Of peaceful rest,
TO mourning wandrers given;
There is tear for soult distrcst,
a balm for cv'ry wounded breast;
'Tis found above-in Heaven
There is soft, n downv bed
'Tis fair M breath of even;
A couch for weary mortals spread,
Where they may rest the aching head,
And find rcpoSc--in Heaven
There is home for weeping souls,
By sin and sorrow driven;
When tost on life's tempestuous shoals,
Where storms arise and ocean rolls,
And all is drear--but Heaven!
There faith lifts up the fearful ego,
The heart with anguish riven;
And views the tempest passing by,
The evening shadows quickly fly,
And all scrcne-in heaven!
There fragrant flowers immortal bloom,
And joys supreme are given
There rays divine dispcrsc the gloorn,,
Beyond the confines of the tomb,
Appears---tho dawn of Heaven

F, proceeded TO demonstrate the rapidty with
which musket balls might be projected by
It's agency. TO effect this he screwed on
TO the gun barrel tube filed with balls,
which falling down by their own gravity
into the barrel, were projected one by one,
with such extraordinary velocity as TO de-
monstrate that, by means OF succession
OF tubes, filed with balls, fixed in wheel
IA model Of which was exhiblted) nearly
one thousand balls per minute might be
discharged. In subsequent discharges or
yolleys, the barrel, to which Is attached
movable Joint was given lateral dlrec-
ton, and the balls perforated plank near
ly twelve feet in length.-Thus, II opposed
to a regiment in line, the gun might be
made to act from one Of It's eXtremlues TO
the other. A similar plank was alter
wards placed in perpendicular position.
and in like manner, there was a stream OF
shot-holes from the top to the bottom. Ut
is thus prved that the steam gun has not
only the force of gurrowder, but also ad-
mts ofany direction being given IT. But
what seemed TO create most surprise was
the effect ola volley of balls discharged a
ganst the brick wall by the side OF the tar-
get. They absolutely dug hole OF con-
siderable dimensions in the wall, and pene-
trated almost one halfthrough us thickness.
We heard several officers declare their be-
lief, that, had the balls been made Of iron
instead of lead, they would have actually
made breach through 1.-THE wall was lo

WHITNEY'S COUGH PILLS.

TIiESE pills, which are composed most
Il ly ofvegetables, are not inferior to any
thing yet discovered for coughs, colds,
asthmas and consumptiOns; and even in the
latter case, where cure is not to be eX-
pected, they prove an excellent palliative
by eXpectoration, relieving pain and pro-
ducing sleep.
Numerous certificates Of the virtues oe
these pills might easily be procured, but it
is confidently believed they are sufficiently
known to render recourse to such means
unnecessary, and where they are not known.
we are well assured trial Of them will be
a more effcctual recommendation than a
host of Observation-Disclosures for using,
with the box.
Each box contains forty pills; price fifty
cents.
N. B. To prevent impositions each box
will be enclosed with label bearing an
impression ofthe good Samaritan, with the
following inscription,
Whitney'S Cough Pills."
and each bill of directions will be signed by

sertion of her seducer, Frank Whettenhal.

We are informed, by correspondent,
that the bill repeating the law organizing
Circuit Courts, passed last session, has
been lost, in the House OF Representa-
tives.
The Post Master General has given
information that he has changed the
name of the Post Office at Unionville, in
this county, to CoLLINsvILLE. The fre-
quent miscarriage of letters and papers,
occasioned by there being SO many places
of the same or similar names, has led to
the change.
