IR. CHAMBERS CURE FOR INTEM-


YUNHE subscriber, on the dc cease of the late
DIR. William Chambers, took INTO ms
possession the personal estate OF the deceased
and found prepared large quantity oi d.
Chambers Remedy for lntemperance
He hereby informs the public, that he las
disposed of all the medicine so found, to Dr.
james ii. Hart, and MIR. Andrew M. Tanning
Of this city.
In making this disposition, the subscriber
has been actuatcd by Il due regard to the inter-
ests of the heirs Of the intcstate, as well as
from q wish to give the most extensive use to
the virtues of the discovery, whatever they may
be; and he can further add, with confidence,
that the gentlemen who will hereafter be the
yendcrs of the Remedy for Intemperancc, as
prepared by the inventor, have been intimately
connected with Dr. Chambers in his life time,
have been his agents III compounding the med
icinc, and are acquainted with its composition.
SII.VANUS MILLER,
Public administrators, &c.
o. The medicine will hereafter be prepared
and sold by the subscribers, who alone aic in
possession Of the original recipe of the inyen-
tor, at the Office of the late DIR. & in the base
ment story of Rutgers Medical College, in
Duanc-strcet, ,east side of Broadway, and at the
medical store of Dr. Hart, corner OF Broadway
and Chambers street, three doors from WASH
ington Hall, New York.
The astonishing success which THIS remedy
has obtained in restoring habtual inebriatcs Ia
sobricty, has established its virtues beyond all
contradiction, and supersedcs the necessity Of
any further comment
The remedy is as innocent as it is efiectual;
so much so, that it is often given TO children i'll
febrilc complaints, and frequently used as
family medicine for Dyspepsia, Sc. All thus
is required, to ensure its specific effect, is to
! abide strictly by the directions. 1t is put up
in packages sufficient for one individual crre,
and accompanied with ample directions for its
use, signed in the handwriting of the subscri-
bcrs, without which none are genuine. We are
induced TO adopt this measure, as in conse-
qucnce of the great celebrity which DR.. Cham
bors' medicine has obtained, there have been,
and doubtless will be, many spurious imita-
( tions. On enclosing to us the usual price, $5,
postage paid, the medicine can be sent by
| mail To those who are unable TO pay, on
personal application of the individual at our
| Office, the medicine will be administered gra-

When Natures self rest. silently,
In soft reposc, on shrub and Gower;
Nought broke that lovely Stiffness, save
The distant spla.hing OF the wave,
When the light bark. with dripping oar,
Darted to reach the distant sh"re,-
Or music's thrilling notes, that fell
I'm the cool breeze and woke spell,
So heavenly, that the listening ear,
Had thought some wandering spirit near.
Perchance the sweet stara's chords
We're struck by one wh, felt the pain
That never could be told by words,
But 1oaled swectly in that strain.
None ever viewed a scene so fair
As those who bnply fingered there,
And saw The horizons vivid glow,
The muntauins summit clad in snow;
And where the broad leaved plantain shone
Near the slight palm trees fan-like crown,
The baniau's hosptabe shade
by reproductive branches made,
Lending its kindly shelter still,
From noontiIe heat or midnight chill;
Groves where the leathery cocoa grew,
Clittering with ewes own lucid dew.
a thousand birds on sportvc wing
Made vocal every bending spray:
With varied notes they seemed to sing
Soft vcspcrs 10 the parting day:
The pale moon there her crescent hung,
And DER the waves splendor flung,
More mild and lovely than the beam
The d-day sun filings on the stream.

" The heavens o Lord! Thy power proclaim,
And the earth echoes back, Thy name;
Ten thousand voices speak Thy might,
And day to day, and night to night,
Utter Thy praise,-Thou Lord above!
Thy praisc--Thy glory--and Thy love.
All things see, or hear, or feel,
Thy wisdom, goodness, power reveal.
The silent crescent hung on high,
So calmly sailing through The sky;
The lowlest flower that lights the 'lells;
The highest wave the stream that swells.
The breeze that o'or the garden plays;
The falthest planets glimmcring rays;
The dew upon the distant hill;
The vapours that the valley fill;
The groves untutor'd harmony
All speak, and loudly speak of Thee.
Thy name, Thy glories. they rehcarse,
Great Spirit Oft universe;
Sense Of all sense, and Soul Of soul,
Nought is too vast for Thy control;
The meanest aud the mightiest share
Alike Thy kindness and Thy care.
Beneath Thy all directing nod,
Both worlds and worms are equal, God;
Thy hand The comets orbits drew,
And lighted yoDJer gluw-worm too;
Thou didst the dome of heaven build up
And form'dst yon snow drops silver cup.
And nature with its countless throng,
And sun and moon aud planets song,
And every flower that light receives,
And every dew that uIs its leaves,
And every murmur of the sea-
Tunes its sweet voice to worship Thee.

every thing" On the contrary, devo-
tedness to dress, pursuing all the frivoli-
ties and caprice of fashion, indicates
deficiency o. those good and sound quail
ties, which we wish to see in mothers,
and which are characteristics of women
Of intellectual worth, prudence and dis

DRESS.

As some fair female unadorn'd and plain,
Sc cure to please while youth confirms to reign,
Sights every borrow'd charm that dress supplies
Nor shares with art the triumph Of her eyes.
GOLDSMITH.
Among females dress is very proper
ly considered an index to internal quail
ties and perfections, which without ii
would be learned only by long familiarity
Toaopear well in dress is peculiarly de-
sirable in woman, and as an excellent
writer observes, 1" 1t is to be received as
an cquivocal symbol of those qualities
which we seek in a wife; it indicates
cleanliness, sweetness and love of order,
and universal propriety. What then is
there to Ccnsure in Il moderate consid-
Grafton Of dress Nothing /; we may
blame where we find extravaganza, pro-
fusion and misappropriaton, subsection
to the tyranny of fashion, slavery to van
ity-in short bad TASTE" Hence due
consideration and attention to dress,
especially with females, becomes an
object of no small concern.
Dress, to appear well, should always
be moderately plain, but neat, and appro,
pirate to the time and season cfthe year,
and not prejudicial TO health.-A gahdy
anectcdness of dress is by many judi
cious persons considered as indicative
Of folly, and want Of a proper degree of
modcsty for modcsty, as well as any
other of the female graces, no less than
vanity itself, arc displayed or indicated
by dress.
The nature Of dress is often sub Q ct to
the influence ofprevaillng fashion, with
out strict regard to either utility or
propriety. Fashion gives absolute sway
to certain notions, and abolshes every
previous idea of beauty or elegance
which is not in strict accordance with
its immediate tenets. That, which at
one time would have excited the blush
Of modcsty, shall suddenly be considered
becoming and elega and that, which
has been esteemed proper and useful,
shall in like manner, suddenly be con-
sidered supcrlluous and vain. Indeed
fashion cxcrts a powerful influence in
changing cxpedtiously and often abb
surdly the opinions of society in these
particulars, as well as the moral affec-
tons, according to the most eXtravagant
fancy. But the real standard Of beauty
is not so changeable; when least subject
to the madness and folly Of fashion, and
arrayed with neatness and taste, the fe-
male appears more interesting and love-
ly.
| "Lovcliness
Needs not the foreign aid of ornament;
But is when unadorned, adorned the most"
A certain degree Of attention to dress,
but short of entire devotedness, is neces-
sary and laudable; for as Lavater OBJ
serves, "Young women who neglect
their toilet, and manifest but little con.
Germ about dress, indicate a general
disregard for order; mind i'll adapted
to tho details of housekeeping; deici.
cncy of taste, and Of the qualities that

Of his father at an early age, they were
the only objects on whicn he might en-
twinc his affections; ardent in his temp
crament, he had made their existence a
part of his own. lie had been sent at |
an early age to distant seat learning
10 pursue his education, where his seclu- |
sion from the world, made still dearer to
him the objects beneath his pa,crnal roof,
and rendered their loss still more over
whelming. His education was nearly
completed, and he anticipated with rap
ture the time when he should return to
the home Of his childhood, and embrace
tho sole possessors Of his heart; but
alas just before his departure, intelli-
gcncc arrived of the dccease of both the
fond objects of his attachment
1t is difficult for us to realize the dis
solution Of those who were at distance
from US, whom we left in health and ac-
tivity. When we behold not the 4" cold
chill changeless BROW" the solemn flu
neral, and the commission Of the body to
the grave, it is difficult for us to realize
that death has been busy in our dwell
ings, though we may be convinced that
our information is accurate, yet, there is
something like hope remaining, nor is it
till we weep over their graves, that we
can fully realize the extent Of our loss.
Such was the case with the unfortunate
young man. The tide Of grief did not
break on him with full force at once.
He could think his homo was vacant,
that on his return no voice of affection
would greet him. A lurking disbelief,
or rather a secret hope though not con-
fessed even to himself, that all was not
lost, supported and rendered him though
unhappy, somewhat tranquil on his way
to his native village. AS he drew near,
a foo!ing approaching to joy arose with
in him, and hope that his home would
be as he left it, for he could not believe
it could have suffered so great change,
when all around remained unaltcred.-
He approached the dwelling, but the OBJ
jects of his love did not meet him at the
door. He repaired to their apartments,
but they were silent and lonely. His
heart began to sink within him, he be-
gan to realize that they were no more.
From the first, he had thought he could
not survive their loss, and there was
wanting but one evidence more, to
burst that heart, already swellcd to its
utmost tension. The graveyard was
not far distant, and thither he repaired,
and it was there saw him. From that
time his misery was complete, and he
desired no longer to exist He appear
cd insensble to the attention of the COM
passionate, all attempts to sooth his
grief were unavaiing. His sufferings
were soon over, and not long after on
visiting tho graveyard, l saw his new
made grave by the side of those he loved.

OF FOOTE.

The English Aristophanes, when rid
ing out one day on the Downs, in COM
pany with the humorous and tacetious
Macklin, they perceived at some distance
a parsonage coming toward them dressed
out ostentatiously in profusion of gold
lace. "What noble dandy on horseback
is this'' said Macklin. "Pshan re-
piled Foote, while viewing him with
his glass, "'tis nobody, after all, but the
little quicksilver apothecary, with his
flaming coat and tawdry vest. BE Ii
little more circumspect for the future,
Macklin, as you see it is not all gold thai
