CITY OF EVANS WILLIE:
MONDAY MORNING, OCT. 9,

The FOREIGN NEws.--The news from Eu-
rope, and especially that relating to the trou-
bles in Ireland, is highly interesting. The de.
tails of the news brought by the America came
TO hand too late for insertion to-day We see
it stated that the papers found in Smith o.
Brien's portmanteau implcate large number
of the Roman Catholic clergy to the full extent
Of treason. 1t is said that one archbishop, sew
eral prelates, and a number of priests are in
volved in the business. With respect to the
treatment of the persons concerned in the late
insurrectionary movements, there is difference
of opinion between Lord John Russell and
Lord Clarendon, the former being in favor of an
amnesty toward them, while the latter urges
the necessity of most vigorous execution OF
the laws against all political offenders. The
more recent occurrences will probably lead to
greater severity against all persons convicted
of felony and treason, than would otheswise
have been resorted to.
The failure of the potato crop TO very great
extent is generally conceded, and will render
necessary considerable importations of bread
stuffs from abroad to supply the deficiency. The
other crops in Great Britain are fair and the
crops on the continent are generally excellent;
on this account any very great rise in prices is
not looked for.
The news from the continent indicates much
political disquietude in France. Italy, and some
Of the States Of the Germanic Confederation.

CHoLERA.-The Western journals speak of a
case of Asiatic Cholera in st. Louis. This is
no evidence that the Cholera has lately reached
this continent from Europe, as, if we mistake
not, occasional cases of Asiatic Cholera have
occurred in some of our large cities almost ev-
cry year since the first visitation of Cholera to
this country.

INDIAN CHIEF BRANT,

To existence of the innumerable diseases
which aflllct the human race, appear to be
wholly concentrated, in regard to malgnily,
pain and distress, to comparatively few in
number. For instance, Consumption aud
Scrolula are either of them particularly horri-
flying to the feelings OF even a careless observ.
er and to the patient themselves they are the
very realization Of a death struggle.
No human science has heretofore been ena.
bed to extIrpate these fearful complaints, and
1t was only by returning to the simple rosourc.
es of the natural kingdom, that success nas
been afforded. Brant'S Indian Remedies nev.
have failed to help and cure the sufferer, as i,
continually aliesied by a succession of witness
eS and reference of the highest responsibility
IN character and influence.

liar action Of these remedies in all Lung, Pul.

III A few drops of oil of lavender, put in
your paste will preserve it from mould and
souring but not from intrusive fingers. For
example an unsophsticated wight, drawn
into the sanctum by the agreeable odor of our
paste-pot, fresh scented, and finding the coas,
clear, proceeded to inspect the savory smell
ing substance. He discovered, to his lively
satisfaction, that it was a very rich scented
hair grease and proceeded forthwith to lu-
bricate his capillares with this hair invigora-
tor, so opportnnely offered to his attention and
patronage. When, in few minutes, the dry
ing process began to develope the white cake
into which he had unwittngly set his head
and each particular hair stood fast in an outer
easement of -four Paste, not even the delicious
fragrance of the lavender could reconcile him
10 this novel sort of a wig. People Should be
very cautious what they handle, in an editor
room. Awful accidents sometimes occur,
from want Of attention to this, and you cant
tell what may turn up "ef you tech things
in a sanctum. Recollect that.-Lo,ceH Cor.

The Withcring Leaves.
BY T. BUCHANAN READ.

BY T. BUCHANAN READ.
The Summer is gone and the Autumn is here
And the flowers are strewing their earthly
bier;
A dreary mist o 'er the woodland swims,
While rattle the nuts from the windy limbs
From bough to bough the squirrels run
At the noise of the hunters echoing gun,
And the partridge flies where my footsteI
The rustling drifts of the withering leaves.
The focks pursue their southern flight
Some all the day and some all night
And up from the wooded marshes come
J he sounds ofthe pheasants feathery drum.
On the highest bough the mourner crow
Sits in his funeral suit Of wo-
All nature mourns-and my spirit grieves
AT the noise Of my feet in the withering
leaves.
Oh! l sigh for the days that have passed
away,
When my life like the year had its season of
May;
VIII n the world was all sunshine and beauty
and truth,
And the dew bathed my feet in the valley OF
youth
Then my heart felt its wings, and no bird of
the sky
Sang over the flowers more joyous thanI.
BIT Youth is a tahle-aad Beauty dcceives;-
For my footsteps are loud in the whitening
leaves.
And sigh for the time when the reapers at
morn
Came down frsm the hill at the sound Of the
horn
Or when dragging the rake, followed them
out
While they tossed the light sheaves with their
laughter about;
Through the field, with boy daring, barefocted
ran;
But the stubbles forcshadowed the path OF tie
man
Now the upands of life be all barren of sheaves
While my footsteps are loud in the whitening
leaves

Il The great superiority of Roberts Com.
pound SarSaparilla Pills" over all other prep.
arations of SarSaparilla and Pills, is their con-
centraled form, and purity Of the extract,
" hich, being combined with other vegetable
extracts, render them the most purilyingiof all
medicines.
The peculiar virtues Of the Sarsaparlla root
have for n long time attracted the attention OF
the medical profession and the public, and
great interest has been directed to The develop
mentS OF its medical properties. various Syru ps
Tnctures, and DecoclionS have been prepared
from ii. all of which have been found to con.
tain little or none of the valuable properties OF
! the root. Medical men are aware how slightly
/ the root yields It's virtues by maceration IN wa.
ter, and the imposSibility Of retailing il when
prepared in Alcohol. Hence the great value
of the solid extract of which these pills are
prepared One box OF the Compound of Sar
Naparla Pills contains more of the Sarsaparil
la than is contained in two bottles of The Syrup
usually used.
The proprietor experimental for several
years to obtain from the root a solid extract
which should possess all its valuable properties
in their most concentrated form, which he
combined into the form of Pills, and has used
| them in his practice with the most astonishing
success, and, at the suggestion of many friends.
he now offers them to the public at a price
which makes them the cheapest medlcine IN
the world, with the full assurance that they will
be found to be the best medicine prepared.
The Compound SarSaparilla Pills are used
for the permanent cure of those diseases which
arise from an impure state of the blood and
morbid sercetions of the Liver and Stomach,
