The FLYING MAcHrNE.-A Mr. McDer.
mott in Louisiana writes to the N. o. Tropic
the following description of flying machine
Of his invention. He acknowledges that he
finds it difficult to 'embody' this conception
Of the mind %.
have kite one hundred and ten feet in
length, twenty feet broad, and tapering to
each end like the wings of the fish-hawk.-
Under the centre Of the kite have frame
eighteen feet high, in which stand. Under
the kite are four wings which operate hori-
zontally, like the oars of a boat. The blades
Of the oars are each twenty square feet in
surface. They are moved by the muscles
OF the legs. The blades of the oars are
made Of series Of valves resembling Veni-
tan blinds, SO that they open when they
move forward, and close when the stroke Is
made. The wood part is of canes, tho bra
ces Of wire-the kite of cotton cloth, the
tail of the same material. The kite has an
angle of ten degrees to the horizon.
A man in New Orleans has invented
another which he thus describes:
"A hollow machine, about twenty feet
long, is made precisely in the shape of the
body Of bird, and inside this will stand or
sit the aerial navigator when no makes his ex-
periment-by light and simple machinery
working pair Of wings modelled precisely
after those of bird"

ed-but he had novor forsaken the " God of
his fathers" had never bowed down to the
idols Of gold and silver. With a sunken
cheek and animated eye he looked calmy at
the desertion Of tho world, and said with a
smile. that was turned on his faithful and
beautiful companion, that though earth had
no other help but her-he was happy ! and
that his feet should henceforth be confined
to his own valley; then peace of conscience
and inspiring hope would come again, and
the voice Of treachery, sternness and cruelty
be heard no more.

From Alsrander's Messenger
AUTUMN THOUGHTS.
To J. ". D.

~ - W. u.
How glorious are the forest trees,
Clad in their Autumn dress,
Waving with the cool western breeze
In light and loveliness:
What lmner's art their lines may trace,
As meath Oc,ober's sun
The fitting colors, colors chase,
Still changing as they run.
Gorgeous are hey-brigh,, hoeting things
For, ali ! as all of earth,
Death with IT, still their beauty brings,
They perish with their birth:
Another moon, and they are past
With Summers flowers they live,
Scattered around az BY the blast,
They glow thus but 10 diei
They bring me melancholy thoughts,
Mingled with memories sweet,
OfAutumn days, when there came noueht
My spirit could no, greet.
Think with more OF myth than grief
AT morn's early dawn,
OF our garnered nuts, when fell the leaf
A score Of years agone.
Thou dost remember well, ween,
The stolen march at morn
Tho sleepy dog-thc Waterman keen
The tattered breech forlorn.
All! thosowere merry days. my friend,
As days might merry be;
Alas! that all fair things must end,
As leaves fall from the tree,
Since then, have rolled between US twain,
Thousands of leagues of sea,
And many an hour fraught with pain,
Hath passed over thee and me:
Yet well I've proved thy friendship true
True deem still my own,
What good betide, what i'll ensue
That you th-joy hath not flown.

TIIECAUSE OF CONSUMPTlON.-Sim
pie as these complaints are usually considered,
no one can deny their being the most common
case Of this fatal and distressing disease. 1t is
cuindd Il melancholy truth, that thousands fall
vctmcs TO Consumption every year from no 9TH
er cause than NEGLECTED COLDS. Yet we
find hundreds, nay thousands who treat such
complaints with the greatest Indifference, aud
let them run on for weeks and even months
without thinking of the danger At first yon
have what YOU may consider slight COUGH
or COLD; you allow business, pleasure or care
lcssncss to prevent you from giving it amy atteu-
ton; it then settles upon your breast, you be-
come hoarse have pains in the side or chest, cx-
pectoratc large quantities Of matter, perhaps
mixed with blood, a difficulty Of breathing en-
sues, and then you find your own foolish ne
glcct has brought on this distressing complaint.
If then you value life or health. be warned in
time, and don't trlle with your COLD, or trust
TO any qHtck nOStyuRt to cure you, but immcdi-
acy procure a bottle or two ofthat famous rem
cdy, the "BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY"
which is well known TO be the most speedy cure
ever known as thousands will testify whose lives
have been saved by it.

such neglect At first the little patient is scIzed
with Shlvcring, it grows restless, has flushcs of
neat, the eyes become red and swollen, it breathes
with difficulty, and then comes that fearful
COUGH that will surely terminate in convul-
SlonS or death unless something is Immediately

be the most speedy cure ever discovered. 1t is
indeed Il precious remedy mild, safe and inno-
cent, and sure to give the little sufferer immedi-
ate relief, and quickly restore it to safety and
health. Every mother who loves her children
should always keep it in the house and give it to
them carIyi by doing so you may often save the
life Of one you londly love. Remember this is
the famous remedy Of that distinguished physi-
