III.
To see the worm feed on The palIid cheek,
Where shines the star presaging swift decay
To tremble with fear We may not speak;
To biz adeu to hopes declining ray;
To know that she we love and prize must die,
Even in the opening of her spirits dream
That the deep love that flashes from her eye,
Is doubly bright with LIES last hectic geam
To stand beside that loved ones grave and feel
Lifc's utter loneliness; to silent shed
Tears, bittertears, o 'er mcmory's waste-to knee
Beside the dwelling cherished by our dead
Sending the bruised spirit forth TO trace,
Beyond the sky, her peaceful resting place.
To stand upon life's desert and to know
The love lit radiance of woman's eye
Is not for US, to watch the forwet blow,
That on anether's breast must blushing lie;
To cast affection shrine and feel
There's no divinity to feed the flame;
To feel the brain throb and the senses reel,
Whence er we hear the loved and CHERISHED name
OF one whose heart give no echo back
Unto the voice of our burning prayer;
Where crush'd to earth hope perishes in gloom,
And memory weeps in pleasures living torab.
1 nese are the nRnts ana snduoWs Oh man Ittc,
The fretwork woven by the hand of fate
With the mx'd web Of his existence-r,fe
With grief or gladness; yet around him wait
A thousand ministrants. TO dry the tears
OF deepest sorrow estrange the mind
From loves first thraldom, breathing in his ears
Spells more enchanting than he leaves behind,
A thousand streams gush forth to sweep away
The dim memorials Of Joy and grief,
Beneath whose waves unseen, unnoted, lay
Affections garlands, withered--fowera and leaf
While other gods, Ambition, Wealth, or Fame,
From his changed heart Aeeting homage claim.
v.
But love, first love, woman's life--to her
No second flame its deep oblivion brings,
At one long shrine trembling worshipper;
Fearful, yet trusting, her young spirit clings,
Unchanged, Interchangeable, that altar round,
Through veal and woe--through glory, grief,
or shame,
Till death, whose hand alone can quench the
fame,
Ger the ciush'd heart uprears the grassy mound.
Should falsehood's hand sweep DER the living Tyre
OF young affection, tina, but once can pour
Forth from the heart lis melody and fire,
She droops the riven strings in sadness Ger,
And like the tabled bird of Southern skies,
Ensmor'd oft sweet music, with it dies.

THE CRoPs.-So far as our observation
has extended, the prospect for plentiful
harvest Of wheat is more propitious now
than II was few weeks ago. II is true,
the late heavy rains have caused the wheat
in bottoms TO lodge where il stands thick
est. The fy, we believe, has done very
little injury. There is better grain on the
upland farms than we have seen for some
years. The grain generally will be ripe
enough to harvest week or two earlier
than usual. The corn and oats crops,
too. are promising. Accounts from other
States are of the mos, cheering character.
Amid the pecuniary embarrassment Of
brokers, merchants, mechanics. and pro-
{ ssional characters, Benevolent Provi-
dence seems 10 smile upon and bless the
turmoil and labor Of the hardy tiller Of the
SOIL Woodstock Sentinel.

We have heretofore alluded TO the pre-.
cocity Of the season as regards fruit, We
getables and flowers. We have now a
similar illustration os to the grain crops.
We ham from distinguished farmer in
Chesterfield, (Amptbill,) shat he com.
menced bis harvest on Thurday last, and
he says one Of his neighbors has surpass-
ed him, having not only cut and shocked
his wh,ot, but ploughed up his ground and
planted corn, thus producing two Of the
staple crops on the same land in one year
Perhaps the earliest wheat cut on the
James river is near Pressure Isle Rich.

TIE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS,
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are attaining
great celebrity in New England as well az other
parts Of the United States. The attempt ofper-
sons TO delraud the public by the sale Of spur-
GUS articles meets with general rprobation, Mr..
Wright is an indefatgable business man, and
shows array of cures by the medicine which
warrant confidence in tho virtues Of his Indian
Vegetable Pills.

THE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILL.
People are pretty well satisfied by this time,
that Calomel, and the other thousand and one
mineral preparations of the shops, are better ad-
apted, as general rule, 10 kill rather than cure
the patient; as matter Of course, vegetable med
icines are therefore in great request. There aye
very many humbugs, however, among The latti

aN1TBILIOUS PILLS.

From the ten thousand euooies past rpon the
different kinds of Pills which are exposed in the
prints, and the absolute tasehoods which are
told about the various diseases which they are to
cure, and mostly by those who have no knowl-
edge Of the science of medicine, either by theory
or by practice, TO all the various diseases to
which the human family are subjects too pre-
posterous for any thinking mind to believes the
whole object of the vender or quack must be to
name all the various ills, IN order to catch H.
as none other would have the hardihood to i'm
pose such deception on a credulous community
1t would be quite as laudable in me, Judging from
the virtues Of the above Pills in comparison with
others, that should say they would cure every
disease which exists un Ter the sun; but cannot
Twill not do it,-although believe their virtues
are quite equal TO any, and superior to most; and
do know that our most popular physicians are
in the constant use Of them, and that THEIR ex-
perience and NINE for series of years, whilst en-
gagged in the practice of the profession, Lave pro-
we'd their great virtues and beneficial ELECTS, OF
ali others is the best teacher and safest guide.
The above nan cd Pills are suitable i'll all cases
where gentle purgatve is required to exert
salutary influence throughout the system. The
regular dose is tiom to 4-may be taken at
bed time if most convenient. As there is much
difference as to the amount of medicine required
two sufficient where other individuals might re-
euire double that number, and even the same
person may require more at one time than at an
other. 1t is not necessary to take them all the
tiine,-once or twice u week, less or more as re-
CURED by the state Of the bowels. They are per-
tect!y safe.
No pills can have a better effect than these for
the monthly Irregularities which occasionally
happen TO women. They assist at the com
mencemont ofpuberty, also when there is check
from cold or improper exposure, and even at The
time Of their entire cessation.
