heard conversation last night, which run
pretty much thus:
When Jimmy Polk the war began
We locos were delighted
But now we find he is the man
That all our hopes have blghted.
I'll tell tell you boys, It's mighty slam
To lose so fine tool
But I'm like Benton-don't care "dam!"
He swean Jim Folks fool,
Or he'd never sent Taylor and Gen. Scott
Across the Rio Grande;
He has knocked our party all to pc.
Throughout! our happy land.
Adieu! Adieu! my loco friends,
With you cannot stay;
Its now too late to make amends.
The wings have gained the day!
Gen. Scott and Taylo too,
The wings will now elect
At Washington and Mexico
They'll have things done erect.
"How do you like the one man power, Bob!'
"Oh. very well; but the wings are for Two"
"Well, think it will take at least two to gel
matters and things straight again" c. c.
N. B. wish the attention OF the public abou
here could be diverted from making rail roads and
Presidents. long enough to notice small matter
such as bridge across Bear Creek. Upper Glss
gov, near the steam mill. 1t is really disgrace
full to Religion, Politics and Produce.

RHEUMATISM in all its varied forms, Nervous
Affections, Lung and Liver complaints Spinal
Affections, Female weaknesses, de-, 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-
treme 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 vii
lage in the United States are without parallel!
A 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 stimuli combined in this
valuable preparation ..
In Rheumatism either acute or chronic the claims
of the Hebrew Plaster have long since been uni
versally acknowledged. Those who are laboring
under weak backs, no matter from what cause
the weakness may have originated, (even if such
person have been misguided in previous apph-
ca,ions) 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 ,cedk-
ness it will be found of great advantage. 1t is
particularly recommended to Females who are
suffering from sudden weakness, or general de-
biity. 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 q source of complaint with
the numerous spread-plasters now before the pub
lie.
erThese plasters possess the advantage of
being put up in tight Boxes hence, they retain
their full virtues in all climates.

'E, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, MAY 70, lsA7.
A WISH,


Id like to live in yonder star EF Pa,
Which wrinkles through the sky;
From earthly thought and cares afar,
And not mortal nigh.
Me,hinks could forever dwell
Within It's gentle light,
And gaze from out my peaceful cell
Upon the brilliant night.
And then how sweet 'twould be to see
The earth in beauty clothed;
And trace from thence each rock and tree
BY which I've often roved;
l could not look down at once on all
The land love so we'll.
And with a single glance recall
Each spot where loved ones dwell.
And yet I scarce could live alone,
Howe'er so bright ii be;
For solitude cen on throne .a.
Is not the place for me.
I'd like to have one gentle heart.
'Twould make the star more bright,
And in its shining course impart
New beauty to the night.
SYMPATHY.
A single tear, with feeling shed,
Der sorrow and distress,
Throws sunshine round the aching head
To cheer, revive and bless.
One tear, who has it not to spare?
1t is little thing,
Yet lifts the soul above despair,
On bright seraph's wing.
Deem it not vain-a silent tear
But let it kindly fall;
Twill be a gem to deck your bier,
When deaths shrill voice shall call.
