A "REMINISCENCES.

Some seventeen years ago, was 4
"prentice boy" in the then CITY OF
Mud" now the goodIy city of Roches
ter. The business to which was OBJ
tanning a knowledge, was conducted
upon Exchange street, though board
ed in one of the streets in the western
part Of the city.
In going my tea, ] was in the habit
of meeting, almost every evening, for
many weeks in succession, a small,
well-dressed and good-looking girl, with
a tin pail in her hand. At length my
curiosity became excited, and resoly-
ed to ascertain, if possible, the daily
errand Of the girl. Having met her the
following evening, accordingly turned
upon my heel and followed at dis
tance that would not excite suspicion
in any one. ] at length saw her enter
a small shoemaker's shop on South ST.
Paul street. subsequently learned
that the shop was owaed by an indus
trious oung man and an excellent me-
chanic, and that he was the girls hus-
band. lie had been married Il few
months, and possessedno other capital
than good trade, good name, and a
robust constitution, had resolved to e.
conomize in the article Of rent. by hi
ring q house in the suburbs of the city.
His breakfast was always ready for
him by day-break, and taking his din
ner with him, he saved the hour each
day wi ich most persons spend IN going
to and returning from that meal. Ma
nv economists would have been salts
fed with the saving Of as much time as
this between the rising and setting Of
the sun; but not so with the young
shoemaker. He also wished to save
the hour devoted to ten. and therefore
had that meal taken to him by his pret-
tv little wife. This arrangement cna-
bled him to spend the whole day and
as much Of the evening as he chose in
the shop.
The industrious habits of the shoe
maker were soon discovered and met
with their due reward. Customers
focked in upon him, and he was oblig-
ed not only to rent a larger shop, but
to employ an additional number Of
workmen. But the increase of busi-
ness did not wean him from the plan
he had early adopted for the saving Of
time-his third meal still having been
taken to him by his wife in the little
tin pail.
About this time | left the city, and
did not return for some twelve years.

NOW IS THE TINE FOR NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS
Graham's american Monthly Magazine, will
commence new volume, December 10th, iS Al ,
with the January number. Its long and univer-
SALLY successful ca -eer, from its commencement
until the present time, when il has circulation
exceeding By thousands any other Magazine IN the
country, is perhaps as good evidence ofits great
and increasing merit as the publisher has it in his
power to offer. To his old subscribers, he trusts
no assurances are necessary of his determination TO
maintain its present ascendancy over all the rival
periodicals ofthe country. The engagement, per-
manenty, during the past year, of such men as
Bryant, Cooper. Paulding, Dana, Longiellow,
Hoffman, Neal, ManCur, etc., ofhigh reputation
in the literary world, as regular contributors, in
addition 10 previous list, embracing the first
names in the nation, Is sufficient guarantee that
the work will continue to be the principal medium
of communication between the best authors and
the public
Graham's Magazine has been, from its establish
ment, more than any other the fayorite periodical
of the people of the United States Though its
plan does not entirely exclude articles of the most
important character, such as have raised Black
wood and some other foreign journals to their
high influence and reputation, its pages prin-
cipally devoted TO what is usually termed light
literature 1t is distinguished from other pnbli
cations of similar aims by the literary and artistic
merit of its contents. While those of other works
are unknown or anonymous, the contributors to
this are the most eminent authors OF our age and
country; the very creators, founders, of onr Ma
tonal Literature. Especially is it celebrated as
containing the choicest productions of the finest
female writers of the time. Every number con-
talns gems which may be appealedto with pride by
the sex, as vindicatng their intellectual eminence.
1t may safely be asserted, that Graham's Maya
zine has regularly engageda better corps of writers
than any other magazine; that since its establish
ment has been the pioneerin magazine literature;
and that the contributors OF "GrGhGnl'' have, by
their able contributions, given higher national
character 10 periodical literature in the United
States than it ever before possessed. With such

An African prince, subducd in battle,
capltulatcd for his bow and quiver. A
British merchant sent him to South
Carolina, where he was slave. A
placid cuuntenaDcc and submissive

his affections. His statelness and

The bow and quiver were preserved as

gentle Jumbo. In the campaign Of 1881,
the widow Of Col. Motto, (who died a

on the Congarce, then fortified by a
British garrison; the garrison was be-

The widow, who lived in a cottage
in sight of the fort, was informed that
the preservation of her house was the

consent ofmy physician to use Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry prepared by Dr. Wistar. purchas-

ing half of which, began to gain strength, and it
was very evident my cough was great deal better,
and my symptoms in every way improving. ]
have now used three bottles, and am restored to
health. The result is alone owing to the use OF
DR.. Wistars Balsam of Wild Cherry, and take

About five years ago. Mrs Winner was attacked
with a violent cough, pain in the chest and side,
and symptoms of approaching consumption, Dur
ing the intervals from that time 10 sometime in
February last, she had been treated by eminent
PHYSICIANS from Utica, Syivana, Homer, Chat
ham and Newark and with only partial relief OF the
most urgent symptoms. About one year ago, she
caught violent cold, which seated upon the Lungs,
producing an alarming aggravatlon OF all her pre-
vious symtoms. Her Physician was sent for, aud
despite his best efforts, she began rapidly to sink
under her disease. Cough, EXpectoratlon Hectic,
together with MI ght sweats soon reduced her TO
complete skeleton. In February last, her attend
ing Physician, deemed her case altogether hopeless,
a council was called, and after deliberating upon
her case unanimously pronounced her to be beyond
the reach of means, and expressed their opinion
that she could survive but short time, one or two
weeks at farthest. She was al this time entirely
confined to her bed AMI scarcely able to arcu-
late, except in whisper. Her daily paroXyslns Of
coughing would last her uninteruptedy from to
hours, and so severe were they, that we did eX-

We publish to-day the letter of condo
lence presented to the King, by the Ameri-

was gratificd to perceive the high estimation
in which his departed friend and envoy was
held by the gentlemen undersigned. But
there were two points in the letter which
occasioned him some surprise. The first,
that though it commences, "We the under
signed American citizens" the names Of
one native born and three naturalized sub
iccts are attached to it. This he supposed
