The Season.

The precocous Spring is nearly three weeks ahead
of The former season. The strawberry is appearing n
market The wheat fields are covered with the mos,
beautiful ard luxuriant growth The early red May

three weeks earlier than usual and, unless il should
be seriously injured by the rust or BY lodging the har-
vest will be sinsulay fine We shall have flour much
sooper in rnarket-,he Banks will be in the same pro-
portion assisted by the possession Of Northern funds
and The grea, produce of the crop will smooth the way
to the resumption of specie payments. But We must
not vet count too confidently upon harvest, which is
at all times so uncertsn and exposed to so many ele-
ments. We have had seasonabe rain for three days
of the present weekend yesterday we were bright
ened up by genial sun, and cheered BY refreshing
atmosphere.

ETRHEw PLASTER,

NNHIS Recipe, obtained of an old Jew BY trav-
eller in the Eastern countries, bids fair to be
Of immense value to the Western world. Since
this plaster has been introduced into America,
every other plaster, salvc, ointment or Ina
ment has been discontinued by all who have had an
opportunity testing the superior medical virtues
of the Jew David's or Hebrew Plaster. Truth,
though simple is powerful, and will prevail with an
enlightened community, over all the pufiings and
fictitious afidavits with which the world is flooded
The sterling worth Of this plaster, is recognised, ap-
preciated, and its sanctioned by the highest
classes of society. One simultaneous burst Of ap-
probation arises from the thousands who have used
it, which shows that when remedy possesses high
y intrinsic merits like this, it does rot fail of re-
ceiving the patronage of our intelligent public

PERSIAN PILAS,

1T is now settled point with all those who have
used the Vegetable Persian Pills that they
are pre.eminently the best and most efficacious
Fanilv.uedfcfne that has been yet used in Ameri-
ca. If every family could become acquainted with
their sovereign power over disease, they would
keep them and be prepared with sure remedy to
apply the first appearance of disease, and then
how much distress would be avoided and money
saved, as well as lives Of thousands who hurried
out of time by negecting disease in its first stages,
or by not being in possession of remedy which
they can place dependence on. uFAll who wish
to guard against sickness, should use the Persian
pills freely, when needed no injury can ensue, i
used from youth to old age, when taken according
to the directions.

THE PLOUGHMAN'S SONG

THE PLOUGHMAN'S SONG.
Away with grandeur, pomp and gold
Away with childish ease;
Give me but strength my plough TO hold,
And I'll find means TO please.
IT'S sweet TO toll for those We love;
MY wife and darling boys
Bot tend 10 make my labor prove
The sweetest Of my joys.
The humble morsel l procure,
When labor makes it sweet,
Il eaten with taste more pure
Than food that monarchs eat.
'Tis mine--yes 'tis my happy lot,
From cares and av'rice free,
To own this secluded spot,
Dear friends and Liberty.
Thus I, no monarch on his throne
Can grudge his destiny;
Let him his weight Of cares bemoan,
Willis. / am truly free.
When labor wearies and grows dull,
with my dog and gun,
Go forth the finest game to Gull,
And thus all sorrows shun.
Now tell me all you gentry train,
Who have what fortune gives;
Is not the cheerful country swain
The happiesi man that lives?
