describe II, to correct their errors in the
proper way. We would not have child

boy hogged every half hour But few
calm words uttered in an impressive man.
ner, and intended for the heart and under
standing, quiet lecture at the proper mo.
ment, an appeal to the better, gentler, and
nobler qualities-wil seldom fail to have
due effect. If boy be undutiful or mis-
chievous, many parents are too apt to get
into a passion, and while thus excited, to
make use of language and resort to means
of correction, which they must repudiate
in the strongest manner, in their camer
and more rejecting moments. But even
in older life, between friend and friend,
and man and man, the proper system of
reproof is too often neglected. The multi
tude are too apt to answer harshness with
harshness, to discover faults where none
exist, to magnify slight errors into gross
imperfections, and TO indulge in passion
and madness, when persuasion, reason, and
love would prove far more cogent.
Look, gentle reader, into your own i'm
mediate neighborhood, and decide by per.
sonal observation. Select out the unhappy
couples, the unharmonious and quarrel
some, and then look a little further, and
inquire into the disposition of the parties.
Our word for it, petulance, irritablity and
violence will be found somewhere. Doubt.
less there are cases where appeals to rea-
son, to affection and common sense, all
prove unavailng. But these, we have
reason to hope, are few and far between.
1t is our solemn conviction, that one woman
in thousand cannot be found who may
not be influenced and controlled by the
display of the milder and purer virtues
while hundreds may be converted into lii.
tie better than furies, by neglect, asperity
and abuse. There is nothing more deli
cate, nothing more sensitive than the hear
of woman. 1t will give forth most elo
quent music, when touched by the hand o.
love. But, we must remember that, in the
language of an eloquent writer, "the fond
est, the most clinging affection is often
shaken by the slightest breath of unkind
ness, as the delicate rings and tendrils o
the vine are agitated by the faint air tina
blows in summer An unknd word from
one beloved often draws blood from man,
a heart which would defy the battle-ax,
of hatred or the keenest edge of vindictve
satire. Nay, the shade, the gloom of tn
face familiar and dear, awakens grief ant
pain"
How careful, then, should we be in ad
mnisteriug reproof and censure to such
How careful to avoid all that may serve It
excite suspicion, to dissolve the charm o
confidence, to call into existence demon
of doubt, where all before was trusting ant
devoted. To censure kindly is one thing
and unkindly another. In the first case
we may elicit tear and regret, followe
by smile and promise--in the other, "
may call forth feelings of vindictive retal
iation, and destroy at blow, the fabri
of esteem, regard and affection that we ha
been building up for years.

WING SONG.

WHlG SUM-.
o, what's that thing flying up the creek,
That leaves behind it such streak?
1t is loco in full SAIL
He flies so fast he's lost his tail.
CHoRUs-Cear the way the Loco's flying
Clear the way the Loco flying,
Clear the way the Loco's flying,
Loco Foco cause is dying.
What makes it fag beneath its weight
As if twas carrying something great,
Is Loaded full OF MULTIPLICATION,
And sinking deep in degradation.
Clear the way, &c.
Come, tell me whence that thing was brought,
And how its heavy load it got?
Hatched by Calhoun and kept in store,
And loaded late at Baltimore.
Clear the way, &c.
What makes its bill so long and fiat,
There seems to be something in that!
1t wants to catch the Treasury fish,
And eat them out the golden dish.
Clear the way, &c.
1t seems 10 have so many crooks,
Tell me its name and how it looks?
1t looks little like other folk,
Its first name s Jim, its surname S Polk.
Clear the way, &c.
II in its history you are skilled,
Then tell me how it may be killed?
Twill soon be brought 10 agonizin'
With dose of Clay and Frelinghuysen.
Clear the way, &c.
Ha! hal is that the candidate
The Locofocos brought out Of late?
Yes, with this thing some ocos say,
They expect to beat old HAIRY CLAY.
Clear the way, &c.
What means that ghastly long faced group,
Who look as if they were used up?
It's locos who to honor callous,
Have poison'd themselves with Polk and Dallas
Clear the way, &c.
How long have they lived on the earth,
Or do you know their time OF birth?
Lived sixteen years or there about
And next November they'll blow out.
Clear the way, &c.
Can you reason to me give,
Why these Lokies should no longer live?
Because their reign s so full Of evil
Twill carry them headong TO the Devil.
Clear the way, &c.
Where's the Sub. Treasury and Army bill,
Two leading items Of their ,cill
They were by Locos long defended,
Alas! with them their days are ended.
Clear the way, &c.
What laundering sound is that which rolls,
And shakes the earth to its very poles?
1t is the songs Of the Wing boys rsin',
A waiting Clay and Frelnghuysen.
Hurra, hurra, Wing songs are risin'.
A waiting Clay and Frelinghuysen.
o! tell me what tremendous light,
, Is that which o er US shines so bright?
The Wing cause raised above the horizon,
And shines through Clay and Frelinghuysen.

The SiCk-Headache,
Either Nervous or Bilious.

Either Nervous or BlHa0uS.
OE-An attentive psrusal Of the tolO,ci'tg triH it
is believed fully repay all classes Of redderS--Head-
ache! This disease is one from which arises more
misery to the human family than is generally sup
posed not being directly fatal it is often neglected,
or persons resort much to the use of purgatives
and other medicines, as to impair their general
health, and often induce fatal disease. This arti-
Gle, DR.. SPHoN's HEADACHE REMEDY, from Com
stock d Co., now offered, seems to have overcome
these difficulties. While its effects are most pow
erful and immediate in curing an attack or keeping
it off, it is perfectly mild and innocent as to be
used for infants with the greatest effect and safety.
This has now been tested by 50 many of the high
est members Of this community, as to require no
further proof.
If taken a few times in as many hours, when
there indications of an approaching attack, it
is sure in all to prevent the attack. If used
for few weeks, the premonitory symptoms grad
ually subside, until they wholly disappear, and
never, without some great external or predispos-
ing cause, return. If the person neglecs to use il
till the headache commences, it sometimes cures
instantly, but at others the turns will have their
course for two or three times, and then wholly dis
appear.

Hays Liniment is known now to thousands, as
a most extraordinary remedy for these Affections
1t is impossible to tell in newspaper, in such a
manner as to obtain full credence, the effects and
benefits of this article, general is the practice of
advertisers of extolling articles of no merit. Such
personal references will be given, to bring con-
vcton to the minds Of the most unbelieying. Will
sufferers only ask among their friends, if they have
not heard OF or known its effects; and if they do
not hear it more warmly praised than any other
salve, Let them not get it. All fancy or exaggera-
ton is positively excluded from these statements,
and it is determined to say nothing of it's merits
but what could be fully proved by host of wit
nesses, in any court of justice. Will you look at
the thing and the proofs at the Drug and Book store
of DR.. VIM R. Snelson, Fayette, or at the Drug
store Of DR.. A. R. Ober, Glasgow, where it may be
had?

To all the World who use Leather in any Form
OIL OF TANNIN,
Or, Leather RestOrer.
A ne,c Chemical Discovery.


Most people know, that skins and hides are con-
verted into leather by the use Of Tan.in extracted
from certain barks, DC.
When the force and strength of the Tannin is
worn out, leather becomes dead, hard, dry brittle,
cracked, covered With crust, dc. THIS ALL
KNOW. To restore then life, softnesS, moistness,
strength, smOothnesS, and remove all crust fly, or
blister-restore the tannin. This substance the
leather never can receive the second time but the
whole rirtues of it in this article, the OIL OF
TANNIN-which penetrutes the stiffest and hard
est leather, if it has been twenty years in use; and
if it tears easily with the fingers, it imparts at
once strength that is utterly incredible until
seen. II becomes like ne,o leather, in all respects,
with delightful softness and polish, and makes all
leather completely and perfectly imperuious to wa
ter--partculary boots, shoes, carriage-tops, har-
ness, hose, trunks, and in fact all things made Of
leather, giving splendid polish, even higher than
new leather has, and at least doubling it's wear
and durability, in whatever manner the leather is
used THESE ARE FACTS.
