The Merchants quarreling about nothing at all,
Some have got hot at the "Revelation'' of Jews,
And withdrawn their patronage from the "News"
Others, curse Claib Jackson and on him do vent
Their vengeance for putting interest at six per cent
While some are quarreng for quarreing's sake,
And others about whole sections of ginger cake.
The Farmers and Planters are very much plea sod,
As they say, by the Shylocks, they have been hard
squeezed,
But certain Bolus and Daniel, not of the den,
Swear by their old hats it was too low at ten.
Some Merchants in town catch customers by the
throats,
Saying pay US the cash or give us your notes,
For soon rates of Interest will drop down to six,
And according to that, we our profits must fix.
The Planters they say ten per cent is too high,
And they'll not give their notes till after July.
But they'll sell their Tobacco, tho its too low, upon
honor,
And buy goods hereafter at Carro's cheap corner

A LIFE ON THE OCEAN WAVE.

n LII IL OLN lilb OOChIN w II Il.
BY EpEs SARGENT.
A life on the ocean wave,
A home on the rolling deep
Where scattered waters rave,
And the winds their rovels keep!
Like an eagle Gagged, pine
On this dull unchanging shore;
Oh, give me the flashing brine,
The spray, and the tempest's roar.
Once more on the deck | stand
or my own swift gliding craft,
Set sail! farewell TO the land:
The gale follows far abaft,
We sport through the sparkling foam
Like an ocean bird set free;
Like the ocean bird, our home
Well find far out on the sea.
The land is no longer in view.
The clouds have begun to fown,
But with a stout vessel and crew,
Well say let the storm come down,
And the song of our hearts shall be,
While the winds and waters rave,
A life on the heaving sea!
A home on the bounding wave!

OR
III II lib IL Il w ASTER.

Certain Remedy for all FIXED Pains in the
SIDE, BACK,
CHEST, BOWELS,
LOINS, MUSCLES,
RHEUMATISM in all its varied forms, Nervous
Affections, Lung and Liver complaints, Spinal
Affections, Female weaknesses, dc, dc. For the
above complaints this plaster has no equal. The
great celebrity which it has already acquired not
only in the old but in the new world the extra
| ordinary cures it has performed in the most ex-
IRENE cases of suffering, have acquired for it such
a reputation, that the proprietor has not (until
recently been able to supply half the demand.
The sales throughout every city, town. and viii
lage in the United States are without a parallel!
circumstance not surprising, when the vast
amount of human suffering relieved by its use be
considered. In spinal defects the benefit usually
is of the most decided character. In Nervous
complaints, nineteen cases out of twenty readily
yield to the penetrating sttnsua combined in this
va liable prepOratiO
In Rheumatism either acute or chronic the claims
of the Hebrew Plaster have long since been uni
versally acknowledged. Those who are aboring
under weak backs no matter from what cause
the weakness may have originated, (even if such
person have been misguided in previous appli-
cations) in the use of the Hebrew Plaster they
will find the affected part suddenly restored to its
original soundness.
As supporter in cases of constitutional roeak-
ness it will be found of great advantage. 1t is
particularly recommended 10 reliaies "ho are
suffering from sudden weakness, or general de-
bility. In short, it embraces all the virtues which
the most scientific mind was capable of compound
ing from valuable substances found in the old
world, and will be found entirely free from those
objections which are a source of complaint with
the numerous spread-plasters now before the pub
lie.
0r5-These plasters possess the advantage of
being put up in tight Boxes, hence, they retain
their full. virtues in all climates.

ery place where it has been used Thousands OF
CONSUlIPTIVE PATIENTS
have already tested its exalted virtues, and con-
fessed it's surprising excellence and amazing
power. The remarkable success of this Baisam is
no doubt owing, in great deo sure, to the Pecu-
liary agreeable and powerful nature OF its ingre-
dents. 1t is

pressly for this purpose) the rare medical virtues
