WESTERN SCENERY - he deep low mu-
sic of the lonely woods, when the Summer
wind is dallyng with the tops of the lofty
trees--the shuddering bass that breaks
solemny upon the ear though the shrill pi
pings of the breeze of Autumn, and the wild
mingled chorus that howls drearily in uni
son with the blasts of Winter, all touch
corresponding note in the soul of him who
loves the handy.work of God and delights
to walk alone with nature and hold sweet
converse with her, away from the habita-
tions of man. A lonely ride through the
forest on morning in the early Summer is
the sweetest of all employments. Around
the skirts of the woods, the birds sing their
sweetest songe, and the chatter!ng squirre
with his glossy coat Of black leaps from tree
to tree, and barks in wonder at the stranger.
As you progress deeper, animated Nature
takes her leave, and the ear attunes itself to
the deep bassoon-like tones that float along
the air, swelling and sinking like the low
notes of an Eoian harp and hushing the
spirit INTO quletude with it's wild dreamy
harmony.
But Spring ride overthe prairies-What
can compare with it? There is exhileration
in the thought, but o, how tame in compari-
son with dash over the greensward, the
home of the wild deer, and the gay haunt
of the flower spirit! A green carpet is
spread before you, extending away, and los
ing itself in distant groves the rise up and
meet the sky. Long points of woodland ex-
tend into the plain, and look like homes
created by Nature for her most favored
The whole earth is spang led with
millions of earth-born stars, and the breezes
are rolling the long grass in deep swelIS like
the waves of Ocean when the winds are
there. And then dash into the rolling
waves of this newborn seal Your steed
catches the glow OF your enthusiasm and
speeds away and revels in the feetness of
his limbs. The sweet scented zephyrs play
around your brow, and the wild freedom of
Nature in all her glory busts forth
in perfection and throws a new enchant-
men. over earth and sky. The SOULS AVA
kened, as with breath of trumpet, and
man walks upon the soil as monarch of all
he surveys.
But there is other life here on the prai-
res besides yours and that of your painting
steed. A herd of wild deer start up from
their lair, and course away with their ant
lers thrown back and their white tails strea-
ming in the wind. They are feeter than
the storm, and their graceful motion shows
the perfection of mingled speed and beau
ty. A long snake-llke movement in the
grass tells you that prairie wolf has stolen
away from the sound of your footsteps, and
none are more wary or cowardly than he.
Pursue him and trample him under foot, for
he is thief, but spare the stately buck and
timld doe, for on them God hath set the i'm
press Of beauty.

The New York Spirit of the Times snys
that it is fashionable for the ladies' of that
city to have beautiful little (canine) dog
about their persons, to attend them and nod
out of the window when they ride in their
carriages.
The ladies in Cincinnati do the thing up
better than that. They have beautiful
l'tIepig, to display its nfantile graces in
their drawing rooms, and bow from the
coach window when they take an airing.

TLORENCE, ALA. SEPT. q, ls3s.--A
gentleman of the highest standing in
this town, who has been dreadfully afflicted
with the Blind Piles for the last 26 years,
called upon me and freely confessed to me
his situation. After describing the severity
of the complaint, he remarked he had not
been so well for 20 years past as he was at
that moment. He has used one bottle only
Of Hays Lniment. To use his own words
he said "the whole human family, who
were thus afflicted, ought to be made &C
quain:ed with this medicine"

sometimes realizes, when he finds that the
