was wealthy man, who had, long before
his death, apportioned his estate in such n
manner as to leave each of his children

father of Elsie he had been somewhat more
liberal than to the others, While her
father and mother lived, he had been BAR
ticularly kind to her, and seemed to take
much interest in her welfare. In this. he
had to combat the weakness of an indul-
gent mother. Elsie was an only child, ana
had such winning ways that tender moth

She was particularly averse toHstudy nor
could her parents induce her to apply 10 il

And fair round body, told his case

And keen discerning:
Much he complain'd
OF being paind
With numerous Ills
Feverish heats, and aguish chills
With head-ach, neck ach, cholic, govt,
And rheumatism all about;

And he must soon 90 hence,
Unless the doctors would find out
Some way
70 ease his pain,
And set him on his legs again;
And take their pay.
The doctor heard him with smile,
Eyeing him keenly all the while
Then says, " sir, your best course
viii be to steal horse"
How can horse-stealing ease my pain
Doctor, you re jesting pray, explain"
Then, TO be serious, sir, you know,
If you shall steal horse you'll go
To the States prison, and there stay,
Day after day,
Fed with simple, wholesome food,
And have just Work enough to do you good
For without spectacles my eyes
Convince me that your ailments rise
From too much eating too much drinking
Too little exercise; too little thinking.
Hence soon you'll find, that, by your stealth
You'll gain the first of blessings-health.

And go your way, and sin no more"

Patent Spring Saddles.

A WON TO THOSE FOND RIDING.
The complaint against hard and uneasy saddles,
which is, for the most part just and general one, and
really grievances to those who have much riding to
do caused him to turn his mind particularly to that
subject with view, if possible, to remedy the evil
He can with confidence assure the public, that he has
accomplished it. The plan projected is by means of
strong and well tempered steel springs constructed
as to support the saddle seat and give much greater
ease to both rider and horse than saddles made in the
common way any other that he has can
sibly do The plan is entirely different from the En-.
rsh elastic saddles with spring bars of Steel whale
bone, &c. and also from those with wire sprngs and
he conceves much superior to either, the elasticity
greater and the tree not being put out ofs original
form viii subject to hurting horses on Journeys
which is complained ofn the saddles with spring bars
A number of gentlemen havethose saddles now muse,
and but one sentiment exists among them in favor of
their superiority The invention is equally as applca-
BILE to ladies' saddles as to gentemen's Any person
