OLD LOVE AND NEW.
By EMILY II. MAY.

The saloon of the Ocean House at New
port was crowded. Beauty, wealth and
wit shone on every hand. 1t was the night
of grand ball, and every visitor Of conse-
quence on the Island was present.
"What beautiful creature Isabel Liv-
ingston is" exclaimed Mr.. Vernon.
"Beautiful" replied the lady by whom he
stood, tossing her head disdainfully why lav
and she raised her glass to her eye, II think
she's positively plain looking"
"Beautifulp' echoed her mamma, fat
vulgar looking woman, the Haunting color
of whose dress betrayed her character at
once, "why now, do say Mr.. Vernon, its
astonishing--it is--how a gentleman of
such tone as you should think that pert Miss
Livingston beautiful. Look at her hair

and then her dress, why that stuff" said she,
with a contemptuous curl of her lip,
"couldn't have cost dollar a yard. Do
you think it could, Araminta, my dearl"
Mr.. Vernon was decidedly the most
fashionable man at Newport. With fine
person, handsome countenance, courtly
manners, and the reputation of very large
fortune, he was looked up to by all as the
match for the season. The Belvlles, there.

THE VILLAGE PREACHER,
BY OLIVER GOLDSMITH ,

BY OLIVER GOLDSMITH.
Near yonder copse, where once the garden smiled
And still where many garden flower grows wild
There, where few torn shrubs the place disclose
The village preachers modest mansion rose.
man he was to all the country dear,
And passing rich with forty pounds year;
Remote from towns, he ran his godly race,
Nor e'er had changed, nor wished to change, his
place;
Unskillful he to fawn, or seek for power,
BY doctrines fashioned to the varying hour;
For other aims his heart had learned 10 prize,
More bent 10 raise the wretched than to rise.
His house was known to all the vagrant train;
He child their wanderings, but relieved thei
pain.
The long remembered beggar was his guest,
Whose beard descending swept his aged breast;
The ruined spendthrilt, now no longer proud,
Claimed kindred there, and had his claim:
allowed.
The broken soldier, kindly babe 10 stay,
Sat by his fire and talked the night away
Wept DER his wounds, or, tales of sorrow done.
Shoulder'd his crutch, and showed how fields
were won.
Pleased with his guests, the good man learned to
glow,
And quite forgot their vices in their woe;
Careless their merits or their faults to scan,
His pity gave ere charity began.
Thus to relieve the wretched was his pride,
And even his failngs leaned to virtues side;
But, in his duty prompt at every call,
He watched and wept, and prayed and felt for all;
And as bird each fond endearment tries,
To tempt her new ledged offspring to the skies,
He tried each art, reproved each dull delay,
Allured to brighter worlds, and led the way.
Beside the bed where parting life was laid,
And sorrow, guilt, and pain by turns dismayed,
The reverend champion stood. At his control
Despair and anguish fled the struggling SOUL
Comfort came down the trembling wretch to
raise,
And his last faltering accents whispered praise,
At church, with meek and unaffected grace,
His looks adorned the venerable place;
Truth from his lips prevailed with double sway;
And fools, who came to scof, remained to pray.
The service past, around the pious man,
With ready zeal, each honest rustic ran;
Even children followed with endearing vile,
And plucked his g own, to share the good man S
smile:
His ready smile parents warmth expressed,
Their welfare pleased him and their cares dis.
tressed:
To them his heart. his love, his griefs were given,
But all his serious thoughts had rest in heaven.
As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form,
Swells from the vale, and midway cleaves the
sto nm.
Though round its breast the rolling clouds are
spread,
Eternal sunshine settles on his head.

While it acts generally upon the whole system,

freeing the solids from all morbid secretions, and
reinvigorating and bringing up all the vital ener-

same time exerts specific influence upon the liv.
Or, digestive organs and Emphatic and glandular
systems; exciting them to healthfu activity, re-
moving all morbid matter, equalizing the circula-
ton, restoring their proper and necessary secre-
tons, thus accomplishing complete renovation
from disease. and restoration to sound and per-
manent health.
AGUE and FEVERS common to the West and
South-those whose constitutions have become en-
feebled by the use of mercury, quinine, or other
violent remedies-skould resort at once to the use
of this VALUABLE MEDICINE.
1t has cured and will cure the most obstinate

COTTON IN INDIA.

Il has been commended by the friends OF 'home
market" that our cotton interest was in danger
of being injured by the competition of The East
Indies. Some time since, the remarkable FACT
was developed by the evidence of Americans ex-
pressly sent over TO conduc, The cultivation OF
cotton in the East, that the East Indies were no,
a, all fitted for the production of cotton, and that
the experiment was failure. The English pa
rers received by the overland mail furnish The fol-
lowing striking facts. We have no fears that
American cotton will not command The markets
OF the world.
The following extract from the papers brought
out ny this mail, will not be undressing in the
United States:
"BoMBAy MARKET, 18th JURY Great COM
