Important TO Farmers. 1t is an extraordi-
nary fact in commerce, and one that speaks
plainly the onward course of our growing
country, that importations are now made Of
Wheat from England. and Potatoes, Oats,
Beans, &c. from the continent of Europe
The demand, which emigration and other
causes has created, exceeds our domestic
supplies. The establishment of manufactures
i'm New England has greatly enhanced the
demand for the produce of our farmers; and
the profitable employment, Of capital in the
Southern States, in the growing of cotton,
has created there demand for agricultural
products beyond the present means of sup
ply. There is, then, an ilnperious necessity
for greater attention to agriculture in all
parts of the country-and our farmers need
not, for years to come, fear the want of
market, or a ready sale at a fair price, for any
amount Of, produce beyond their present
crops.-{ Worcester Palladium.

Throat and Bowels; Diarrnha; Dysestary; Sore
Moulh Of Nursing Women; aud the Acrid lIumors
Of Teething Children; in short, for almost all the
affections Of the Mucus Membrane Of the Mouth,
Throat and Alimentary Canal. These diseases
are acknowledged by all hysicians to be Of the
most severe and obstinate character, and have
long baiiled their skill and research. The discov-
cry, therefore, Of an electual remedy for them
particularly for the various forms Of Scarlet Fe-
vcr, must be considered by every true phanthrO-
p'st as an invaluable desidcratum. As a common
and perfectly safe family medicine, il will be
'osnd of inestinable value in cases Of cvn,nrou
Sore Threats and Colds; disordered state Of the
Stomach and bowels; such as habiiual Costive-
ness; lndgesion; Fiaiulency; Nausea and Vom-
iting Also, IN cases Of weakness arising from

! The Vegetable Extract has now been some time
before the public, aud its great powers justly tes-
tel uundreds Oi individuals have successfully
tried it, and several eminent Physicians are in the
almost daily Use of il in their practice, who are
truly asto"ished at its great curative qualities, and
are ready to give their testimony in favor Of its
efficiency and power. There now remains but
one obstacle in the way Of its very general use,
and iha, is, the price. The propretors. being de-
sirous TO obviate this difficulty. have therefore de-
ernlned 10 reduce the price to GA cents per bot
tie, for one year, which barely remunsrates for
the great expense Of preparing the article; this
will bring il within the means Of every person, so
that no one need suffer for the want Of il; and the
poor man be able to obtain il for himself and
family, as we'll as tho rich.

rub the teeth and gums Herewith every morning,
it would not only cure the scurvy in the gums
prevent the teeth from rotting, and preserve the

My petty grefs all fantasies, would heard them
II may be SO; the cup Of life has many bitter

Which those who drink with silent lips have
smiled on while they quaiIed.
II may be ~: I cannot sl what others have to
bear,
But sorry should be to give another hear, my
They bid me to the festive board-I go, smil-
ing guest:
Their laughter and their revery, are torture to
my breast;
They call for music, and there comes some old
familiar strain,
l dash away the star!.ng tear, then turn and smile
again.
But oh! my heart is numbering back to my ia
ther's home,
Back to my sisters at their play, the meadows in
their bloom,
The blackbird on the scented thorn, the murmur-
ing Of the stream;
The sounds upon the evening breeze, like voices
in dream
The watehful eyes that never more shall gaze up
On my brow;
The smiles oh cease that melody, cannot hear

And heed not when the stranger sighs, nor mark
the tears that start-
There can be no companionship for loneliness Of

TO YOUNG MEN.

There is no moral object so beautiful to
me as a conscientious young man. | watch
him as ! do a star in the heavens; clouds may
be before him, but we know that his light il
behind them, and will beam again; the blaze
OF others prosperity may outshine him, but
we know that, though unseen, he lllumines
his own true sphere. He resists temptation
not without n struggle, for that is not a virtue;
but he does resist and conquer; he hears the
sarcasms of the profligate, and it stings him;
for that is the trial of virtue; but he heals the
wound with his own pure touch. He needs
not the watchword of fashion, If il leads TO
sin; the Atheist, who says not only in his
heart, but with his lips, "there is no God!"
controls him not, for he sees the hand of
creating God and revercs it-of preserving
God, and rejoices in it.
Woman is sheltered by fond arms and low
ing counsel; old age is protected by its ex-
pcrionce, and manhood by its strength; but
the young man stands amid the temptations of
the world like self balanced tower, happy he
who seeks and gains the prop and shelter of
morality.
Onward, then. conscientious youth!-raise
thy standard and nerve thysclf for goodness.
If God has given thee intellectual power
awaken it in that cause; never let it be said
Of thee, he helped to swell the tide of sin by
pouring his influence into its channels. If
thou art feeble in mental strength, throw not
that drop into a polluted current. Awake,
arise, young man! assume the beautiful garb
of virtue! 1t is easy fearfuly to sin; it is diff
fcult to be pure and holy. Put on thy
strength, them let thy chivalry be aroused
against error; let Truth be the lady Of thy
love-defend her, Southern Rose.
