FOR THE JEFFERSoNlAN REPUBLICAN.
Lines on Genesis Nv. I3.
The walchful eye of God,
Descries my secret soul,
Marking the paths I've trod,
Fen 10 life's uncertain goal.
The eve that never sleeps,
Heaven, earth, and hell beholds,
The oceans wave and boundless deep,
And nights dark gloom unfolk.
That eye with mildness beams
On every child Of grace,
And yields TO blissful scenes,
Where faith and hope shall cease.
Where age and death are not:
Where trial cannot come;
Where griefs are all forgot,
And joys are ever young.
That eye with scorching ray,
On every sinner looks,
And points him 10 the day
Or wilher'd, blasted hopes.
When Justice sent abroad,
By an almighty hand,
Arrests the rebel on his road,
OF every cline, and land.
When fear The heart shall hll,
When God himself shall mock,
While wrath and soIer ILL
The rebels soul shall shock.
0, may bend The knee
Before that sleepless eye,
/ "ThUu God" that "seest me-"
Be thou forever nigh.

SHORT SAYINGs.-There are only three
WAYS 10 ge, out of scrape-write out,
back out; but the best way is to keep
out.
Parents should not show unequal love
for their children, as they make one proud,
the other env ious, and both fools.
Reason loses the race, If il sits in me-
citation on the fence while competition
rushes by.
A drone should be as rare in society as
in hive of bees, and almost deserves 10
be treated the same.
Trust him little who praises all, him
less who ensures all. and him least who
is Indifferent about all.
Bitter and useless experience are too
little for the mind, but too much for the
heart.
! Industry and economy will get rich,
while sagacity and intrigue are laying
their plans.

1T may truly be said, that no one has ever been
n so successful in compromising a MEDICINE,
which has done so much to relieve the human
family to rob disease of its terrors and restore the
Invalid to Health and comfort, as the Haue,1ter ans
Proprietor of that most deservedly popular family
medicine, DR.. Swayne's Compound Syrup Vile
Cherry, and none has been so generally patronis1t
by the Profession and Others both in this county
and in Europe, nor has there ever been SO greet
an effort in the short space OF six or seven yeas,
toleceive the credulous and unthinking, by putting
up Nostrums of various kinds, by various individu-
ais, affixing the name of Wild Cherry, end as
much of the name Of the original preparation as
will screen them from the lash of the law, and one
of the impostors who puts out the common pare
gorc of the shops and calls it the BalSam Of Wild
Cherry, has had the impudence to onthe pub
lie against the original preparation, DR.. Snayne s
Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry, whichis doing
so much good in the world.
IT, Beware Of such impostors- IL
And purchase none but the original and only gen.
uine article as prepared by DR.. Swayne, which is
the only one compounded by regular Physician,
and arose from many years close attention to the
practice of the profession and which led to this
great discovery. Thousands and tens of thousands

The Balsam and other spurious articles of Wild
Cherry has been sold out, and the praprietors are
obliged to resort to alsehood and stratagem to make
their own out of it. The genuine article is put up

OFThe public are requested to remember that
it is DR.. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild

such miraculous cures of diseases which have baf-
fled the skill of the profession and set at defiance
the whole catalogue of Patent Medicines, which
are daily pulled through the organs of the press
Therefore ask for DR.. Swayne's Compound Sy-

an important item with planters. The machinery

quires no new buildings or extra power. 1t can
also be applied to Horse Mills, Threshing Ma

same Mill will grind one-third more of Corn Meal
by the introduction of this Machinery, and can be
changed from grinding Corn and Cob to grinding
Corn Meal in the space of thirty seconds. Corn
alone, when fed to stock is said to be by the most
practical and scientific Planters, constipang in it's
effects, producing founders, cholics and various
other maladies which are incidnt to stock. Grind

serious results above mentioned. Stock, when fed

of diseases arising from overeating. Corn and cob
meal is improved by scadlng, and still more by
boiling, and yet more by partial fermentaton.-
All the preparations facilitate digestion for Hogs
But Horses and Mules will not eat fermented food,
consequently they will require it dry or partially
