JEWETT's IMPROVED PATENT


CAR EY PLOU G. III (.
THE subscribers have the pleasure of announ-
cling to their numerous friends and customers. that
they have now on hand large supply of the above
poughs of this years manufacture, which, owing to
the change of times we are enabled to offer at great
ly reduced prices.
From the liberal encouragement extended to US
last year by the sale Of 1000 of these poughs
and the universal satisfaction they gave, we were
induced to spar pains in selecting the very best
Of materials, and employing the best mechanical
skill in their construction. The consequence has
been that we have produced results that are highly
satisfactory to ourselves and must be to those who
purchase of u.s. We have now plough which is
SO well adapted to our soil, that it sets all competi-
ton at defiance. For the information of thouse un-
acquainted with its construction, we will offer this
brief explanation: The whole surface of the plough
is ground smooth. The mould-board is made of
wrought iron. The shear of STEEL (Which is at
tached to the mouldboard by three small bolts) SO
that it is easily taken off by means of the clevispn
to be repaired or replaced by new one. The shape
of the mouldboard is constructed strictly scien
tfc principles that it scours perfectly bright in
the most loose and loamy soil, which is in truth the
great dissderatum in this section of the country; as
it thereby enables team to accomplish at least one
third more work in day, with far greater case, and
in much better manner, than with one that will
not scour, This every practical man knows. With
in the part year we have received the warmest test-
monials in regard to them from hundreds of our
practical men who have them in use and at the ST.
Louis County Agricultural society's Fair, held in
October last we were trial and awarded the pre-
MUM. Also diploma at the Fair of the Mechan-
les institute held in this city in November last But
the best evidence of their superiority to all others
now in use is the fact that farmer who has used
them will, for any consideration, make nse of any
other We have reduced the price at retail for cash
in hand to So rs for the two horse ploughs, witt
iron strap the beam, and 81 IS for the one hor
ploughs. A liberal discount made to those wi o
purchase by the dozen. BRIDGE & HALE,

To love and be loved again; TO feel
That one heart beats responsive 10 our own;
To cherish joys that words can neer reveal
Gentle and lovely as the dying tone
Ofhr-off music !; to go strongly forth
On life's rough journey grit with woman' love-
And woman's truth, jewels ofpriceless WORTH
That sorrows dim not, trials can but prove;
To stand with her beside the shrines where lie
Our household gods to feel her true hand press
Our own in silence, while within her eye
Glistens the tear of holy tenderness;
TO listen to the voice whose very tone
Tells Us that we on eartl are not alone;
To see the worm feed on her pallid cheek
Where shines the star presaging swift decay;
To tremble with fear we may not speak;
To bid adeu to hopes declining ray;
TO know that she, the loved and priced, must de-
Even in the opening other spirits dream
That the deep love that flashes from her eye,
Is doubly bright with life's last hectic CLEAN;
To stand beside that loved ones grave, and feel
Lies utter loneliness to silently shed
Tears, bitter tears, DER memory's waste; to kneel
Beside the dwelling Of our cherished 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 fow'ret blow
That on another's breast must blushing lie;
TO cast affection on one shine, and feel
There no divinity to feed the flame;
70 feel the brain to throb and the senses reel,
Wiener we hear the loved and CHERISHED name
Ofone whose heart can give no echo back
Unto the sad voice of our burning prayer;
When crush'd to earth, hope pershes in gloom,
And memory weeps in pleasures living tomb.
! These are the lights and shadows Of mans life,
The fretwork woven by the hand of fate
With the MKT web Of his existence-rife
With grief of gladness yet around him watt
A thousand instruments, to dry the tears
Ofdeepest sorrow or 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, unrooted, lay
Affections garlands, withered flower and leaf;
While other GODS Ambition, Wealth, or Fame,
From his changed heart feeting homage claim.
But love, first love is woman's He-to her
No second fame its deep oblivion brings,
At one long shrine a trembling worshipper;
Fearful, yet trusting, her young spirits clings,
Unchanged, Interchangeable, that altar round,
Thro' veal and wo-thro' glory, grief, or shame
Till death, whose hand alone can quench the fame
Der the crush'd heart uprears the grassy mount
Should fasehood's hands sweep Ger the living Tyr
Ofyoung affection, that but once can pour
Forth from the hearts its melody and fire,
She droops the riven strings in sadness Ger,
And like the tabled bird of southern skies,
Enamord of its own sweet music, with it dies.

HC WOISt "a cuctllICS Is d IudSMcu OIICs
The opponent most to be dreaded, is he
who conceals his opposition. The coon
party stands in this very attitude towards
us now. 1t is under mask-it is con.
cealing its opposition-its partizans are in
dustriously propagating the notion that
they will run no candidates-the syren
song of perfect security is poured into the
ears Of our friends, upon every hand.
Let no one be deceived by this masked
enmity-,his concealed opposition. Let
no one suffer himself to be deluded, un.
nerved, his energies relaxed or drawn off
into personal chickering's and contentious.
Let no good and true Democrat lose sight
of his standard and his nominated ticket.
Rely upon it, the coons have as much ap.
petite for corn-dodgers-as much hostility
TO Democracy-as much an!ipathy to Dun.
can-as much desire TO defeat and tram
pie US down, as they had in 1910. They
have, too, their enemies in our camp
their plans OF warfare is to divide and con-
quer. We shall see, in few days, the
partial Development Of this plan, in the
announcement of some political adven,u
rer and demagogue, protesting Democra>
cy, in opposition to the Democratic ticket,
unless our information is at fault. The
part to be acted by this means is divis-
ION of democracy, wide enough to let a
Wing into the Senate. The same game
will be played in reference to other off,
GERS. Let our friends then stand to their
arms. They will have warm conflict,
depend upon it, yet, with open foes and
pretended friends--warm but not doubtful.
If they are true to themselves. Let them
stand firm to their nomination and keep
vigilant eye both upon the open coons and
the coons in disguise.-Cin. Eng.
FRANKL1N's WIFE.-On the repeal of
that mother of mischief the stamp act,
DR.. Frankling in 1776, sent over from
London to his wife, who was then living
In Philadelphia, new dress, &c. In his
letter he says:
As the stamp act is at length re-
pealed, ! am willing you should have a
new gown which you may suppose l did
not send sooner as knew you would not
like to be finer than your neighbors, un-
less IN gown Of your own spinning
Had the trade between the two countries
totally ceased, it was a comfort to me 10
recollect that had once been clothed from
head to foot in woollen and linen of NV
wife's manufacture; that never was prou
der Of any dress in my life, and that she
and her daughter might do it again if me-
cesssry.'

PLAYING INTO THE HANDS OF THE EN-
ENVY

The Republicans Of Pennsylvania are reused
at last. The Bentonian nsylvanian reck
oned without its host, when il supposed, by
raising the cry Of wolf against Gov. Porter and
President Tyler, the State could be snatchet
from Mr.. Buchanan and bdgged for MIR. Val
Bur,n. The cry Of "stop thief" was lalhe
100 shallow a device to be practiced successful
ly on he Democracy of the Keystone State
They had not forgotten the hints thrown out in
the Pennsy lvanian last winter, that il would h'
well for a CnnarA~-i~..-i caucus TO be held tc
determine on an early day for the meeting o.
National Convention-which hints or ''fee
ers" were copied in the Washington Globe, al
The suggestion Of Mr.. Benton. Remembering
these things, and having determined to decide
in favor Of the time adopted by majority Of
the States MAY, lsa4,) for holding the Con
venlion, the Democracy Of Pennsylvania be-
cane fully satisfied that instead Of Judge Por-
Ter and the Governor having any design to
transfer the Democracy" of the State to any
one, ii tcas their false dccusers phO rere en-
dearoring to 1rheedie the party into the
support II Mr.. Fan Buren,.
w no does not Tememher Inc extraordinary
letter OF Mr.. Benton to the Horn Van Buren,
meeting held in Philadelphia last winter? In
that letter Mr.. Benton said he was in favor of
Mr.. V. B.; therefore he would no, be elected
himself this time, and he doubted not all the
great statesmen, like himself would decline in
favor of Mr.. Van Buren,, and that Mr.. Bucha
nan, in particular, would do so. And for so
doing, Mr.. Buchanan should have his (Mr. Ben
ron's) consent TO serve anot er term in the Uni
ted States Senate.
The Democracy Of P,nnsy lvania marked
these mannuvres well, and will not readily for
get the trickslers who would have driven them
into fatal net set for them in the North, By
raising The cy that vullures were approaching
from the South.
But # it were true that Mr. Buchanan's
strength is confined TO The noble keystone
State, (bu, it is false y and these Bentonlan
Jacobins had succeeded in forcing the bulk OF
the party in Pennsylvania TO support Mr. Van
Buren,, we ask what would have been tue effect
Of their brutal assaults on'the Governor of The
State, the Secretary of War, and the National
sI--:-i---'o' mus distTact,d and divided,
the State would have fallen into the hands of
the enemy TO moral certainty. And such like
