dies whom the publisher is anxious to please. II

care to him, and to the Professor under whose SUI
pervison it is placed, to make that portion of the
magazine deserving of the countenance Of every
lover of music
Tae Work in General fevery department an
equally careful supervision will be strictly exer-
clsed by the Editors, and all appropriate expendi-
tures will be literally bestowed as it is the de-
sign of the publisher, with the aid Of his contribu-
tors and the advice of his friends TO make the La
dies Companion distinguished for the beauty and
accuracy Of It's Typography, the variety and high
tone OF It's literary articles, the quality and value
Of its music, and the unequal spendor of its pic
torai embellishments and the accuracy of its quar-
tery fashions The proprietor pledges himself to
use all honorable means TO maintain the superiori-
ty which the Ladies' Companion has obtained-
For five years he has steadily pursued course of
improvement, and he fiatters himself that his pre-
sent facilities are suchas to give the work eminent
advantages over ali other publications.
From the foregoing it will be perceived that The
Ladies' Companion embraces every department

Arts and no exerions or expense viii be deemed
too great to render the work equal to any other
extant. The flaitering and general testimonials
OF nearly everycontemporary journal in the United

CAUTION.

PUBLIC OPINION from whose decision there is nc
appeal, has been so often and so loudly manifested
in favor of BRANDRETH'S VEGETABLE u
UNIVERSAL PILLS, that it is not surprising there
should be found in almost every city, town, and
village in the United States, persons so depraved
at heart, and so utterly devoid of the principal OF
moral rectltude, TO manufacture spurious arti-
Gle, and palm 1t off on the unsuspectng public as
the genuine medicine, from the result of which so
many happy results have been accrued to humani-
ty. 1t IS painful to think that an inestmable good
should be product of direct and immediate evil
4 but so il is
The very excellence Of Brandreths VeeeiaByo
Uuoesal PlllS. has in some respects. opened spe-
sizes OF highway through which cupidity and ava
rice carry on their depredations without check-&
notwithstanding the frequency of exposure alrea-
dy made-notwithstanding the indehble disgrace
which has been heaped upon counterfeit druggists
notwithstanding the large amount of human suffer
ing which has been the consequence of this impo-
siton and fraud, druggists continue TO carry on
thIs revolving traffic and couneriets are as nu-
merous and as varied in the market, as if no de-
nunclatlon had ever been made, and public indig-
nation never been expressed.
Since, however this destructive evil still exists,
ana neither the fear Of God, nor Of earthly punish
ment, can entirely put it down, il becomes nv i'm
peEdtVe duty again and again to caution the public
against purchasing pills of druggist protesting
to. be BrandTeths Pills for as under no circum-
stances is any of this class made an Agent, it fol-
lows Of course that the Pills sold at such places

THE YOUNG WIFE'S PRAYER.


THE YOUNG WIFE'S PRAYER.
The young wife kneeling TO her God,
Seems brighter far in this lone scene,
Then when our halls Of mirth she trod;
mid fashions ihrong, a worshipped queen!
Gaze on-the the love that fills her heart,
New charms hath lent to cheek and brow;
Gaze on--but hush! the pure lips part
Perchance for thee she's pleading now.
Hear me, Thou who mark'st each feeling
Thou who know'st each passions sway;
At thy sacred altar kneeling,
For being loved, pray
lie is dearer than the mother
Who has been my ife's fond guide;
He is snearer than BROTHER"
Though brothers. still my pride.
Oft, ere summers bloom had persisted,
For the lovers veal plead
Father! on the husband CHERISHED,
Now thy choicest blessings shed.
In all "peril and temptation"
Guard him with thy holy might;
mid the charms Of power and stations
Keep his noble spirit bright.
Bless him, Father! he is starting,
Proudly for the goal Of fame;
Oh! may every year departing,
Add fresh laurels to his name
Grant him Genius Inspiration
Wisdom's eloquence divine
He is pledged unto a nation;
Let him in her councils shine.
Be his guide-and for each sorrow,
For the blight, the cloud, the thorn,
So prepare him, that each morrow
On fearless heart may dawn.
Father! if the love bear him
Lend his path a.brighter ray
lrthat love one pang can spare him,
Aid me still 10 cheer his way
Should his manhood's prime be shaded,
Let hinton this heart repose;
1t will prove, when joys are faded,
Desert spring and forest rose.
Strengthen, guard and guide him ever!
May he glory in loves chain;
Till its links thy angel sever,
. Meier on earth TO clasp again.
The following lines from the New York Mirror, a
by the popular actress, Miss Charlotte Vandenhofl
TO A GIRL.
Maiden, weep not! why dost thou
Wear this sadness on thy brow?
Why should cares dark rayless wing
Hover DER SO bright thing?
Why should thy fair bosom rise,
Giving birth to heart-sent sighse
Why are thy soft curls unbound,
Hanging like veil around9
Love has crept within thy breast,
Stealing all thy souls sweet restI
Love!--tis but an idle thought,
More with gricfthan gadness fraught.
Cast these wo-drops from thine eyes,
Let them beamlike sunny skies
Though thy spiri, pine away,
Letthy lip aud cheek be gay.
Let no sigh reveal thy heart,
Let no gushing tear-drop start;
Let no trembling tone betray
Aught OF sorrow---now away.
