THE DYING HUSB A ND

L II ID Y " u III u . N ~ -
Dearest, I'm dying bend the down
One little moment by my bed,
And let the shadow Of thy hair
Fall gently DER my aching head.
Oh, raise me up and let me feel
Once more the bearings OF thy heart,
And press thy lips 10 mine,
Before in midnight death we part.
Nay, tremblo not. but fold mo close,
PilIowed upon thy own dear breast
I fain would let my struggling sou!
Pass forth to its eternal rest.
She stoops, and on her bursting heart
His dropping head is resting now,
While white and trembling fingers part
The damp hair from his pallid brow.
And there upon his cold white form,
With quivering lip the kiss was given
And pressed as if 'twouId draw him back,
Back from the very gates Of heaven.
There, like a dying bird, his soul
Lay painting out its qnivering life;
And still his almost lifelcss arms
Chung fondly to his pale young wifa.
One look he gave her, and i; seem'd
An angel from heaven above.
Shaded with wings Of tenderness
The troubled fountains Of his love.
a holy smile came DER his face,
AS moonlight cleaning er the snow,
One struggling breath, one faint embrace,
And lifeless he is lying now.
The setting sun with golden light
Was flooding all the room and bed,
Unfolding with his pinons bright
The fainting wife, the marble dead.

OR UNIVERSAL MEDICINE
NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE OF HEALTH.
Established at Washington, d. G. Jan. 8. 1888.
ADDRESS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Fellow Citizens:-At a time like the present.
when our country is literally flooded with nostrums
brought from foreign chimes, you may perhaps
think it an act Of temery in TO offer
didaIe for your favoor and patrnage, Medicine
which is strictly AMERICAN. Common sense,
however, teaches us, that those he, BIS which spring
spontaneously from our native soil, must be better
adapted to constitutions than foreign medicines
however useful the latter may have been in the
countries to which they belong. The climate oftho
United States stands unrivalled for the production
of medicinal plants, and a very little investigation
will suffice to convince the most optical that our
oa0n country is able 10 supply all our wants, indie
pendent of foreign assistance. ..
Deeply impressed with the importance of the A.
bove mentioned facts we venture to recommen nd the
INDIAN PURGATIVE to the patronage of our
fellow citizens in every section of the Union as n
natural remedy, applicable to constitutions, and
competent to cure every durable disease
In bringing medicine before the public for the
first time, it IS generally thought necessary to i'm
press the people with an idea of the difficulties en-
'countered in its discovery, the antsgutu of ITS
origin thus one tells us that his medicine is " a
newly discovered chemical compound the result of
many years intense study and scientific research;

Mr.. Jefferson said truly, SO far as it is confined
to our oaoa people, that "we are brethren Of the
same principle. We arc all Federaliss, we arc
all republicans" So say we-thc native citizens
are brethren Of the same principle The well

however we may differ as to the means Of secur-

Government we can expect nothing but conu-

political sentiment and harmony in political ac-
tion. Like the builders Of the Tower if Babylon,
we shall be scattered by the utter incompetcncy
Of the people $50 called to comprehend each
other either in the ideas conceived, or the Ian
guage used to convey those ideas to each other.
We have laid before our readers the cause Of
the great disease under which the Republic is now
suffering. We have, we think truly, pointed out
the only remedy, we again call on all Natlve
.1n,sricans to apply that remedy without further
delay. Let all, without distinction of party,
unite in one determined and vigorous effort 10 ar
rest the progress of the disease, before it is too
late. That remedy is, THE REPEAL OF
THE NATURALIZATION LAWS. Con-

Of the people, when that voice is rung in their

Chesapeake AMI Ohio Canal.-The Williams
port Banner Of Saturday says: "The breach in
the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, lately referred
to, has been repaired, and for days the trade
to the Atlantic borders has been quite active. The
large amount of produce which had been pre-
vously accumulated as this place, has, we under
stand, all been forwarded. The balance, which
is not yet in state for transmission, will, during
the winter, take the route of Frederick and the
railroad. The navigation may yet be kept open
for some time, unless the weather should prove
unusually severe. Our southern latitude gives this
section of the country decided advantages owe,
our northern neighbols, in the protractcl inter
course by canals"

THE WESTERN DoRCAs SOCIETY,

In resuming their labors for the present season,
anticipate greater demands on them than at any
former period, the pressure of the times affects
all classes. What, then, must not the poor sllf-
fer, unless the benevolent aided by the blessing
of the Author of all good, would provide them
with food and comfortable raiment to protect
them from the chilling and piercing blasts Of
winter?
The Society, in presenting their 2lst Annual
Report, feel persuaded that their former patrons
and the Public will still aid them in tn cir efforts
to relieve the poor by providing for them those
garments which may in some degree alleviate
their sufferings, and for other privations which
they must endure. They distributed last winter
lao garments, and received $l70; $5l of the
amount was donation from the brlcklayers OF
the Treasury building.
The Society will receive with sincere thanks
any donations in money or domestic goods.
