body success in their business, and.tries
hard himself to make an honest living

know this; and hence they look over the
papers TO see where they can get the
best bargains, and at the same time be
treated with the courtesy and poiteness
which nobody of ordinary sense dis
likes.

says the St Augustine Ndws, day or
two since, a centipede, an inch and half
in length, elected under the influence of
an emetic, from the stomach Of lad in
this city. At the time of its being thrown
off il was dead. A short time after u
second centipede, three inches in length
alive and kicking, was thrown up. 1t is
aquestlon of some niceness to determine
the mode of entry, age and duration of
these Poisnnus insects in the human
stomach; and how far the solvant parts
OF the gastricjuice in this instance, fail
ed in It's action on the living animal, as
well as influence on the dead one.

Arold Seals, accompanied by an ofliber

A poetical love letter.

To thee dear Nancy, my sweetiRg,
Your jacob sends these Gewlines, greeting
TIC you, by ali the powers above,
Pm over head and years in love.
For Cupid sat, station'd lv
In one bright corner Of your eye,
And from his bow let fly dart
That pass'd my ribs and hit my heart
And Cpd a way SO broad and wide
IT quite deranged my inward side.
As mice into cheese will creep
Through a small crack, and enter deep,
Will eat and live, while all looks we'll,
And what they leave S an empty shell !;
So my dear Nancy, to my smart,
find Pm left without heart.

AdUertiSia g-Somebody discourses

vertising.
Have you large stock of goods on
hand which you wish to reduce! Then
nothing is easier than to do it. Only
advertise literally, and the thing is
done. Depend upon it, it is false econo-
my TO keep all knowledge Of what you
have on hand from the public, when the
means of communicating such informa-
ton may be obtained so cheaply. We
nave always observed that those who
advertise most literally in the papers,
and scatter their handbills most widely
among the people, are generally the
most prosperous in business. The rea-
son is plain. People like to be asked to
buy, and that too in polite manner
For who, ifthey can help it, will deal
with chuff, morose, vinegar crust chap,
who is too i'll natured or loo il-manner-
