HAMPTON L. Boon, Clerk of the Supreme
Court of Missouri, and Editor of the Jefferson
City Metropolitan, speaks of the Embroca ion
as follows, in his paper:
We desire TO call the particular attention OF
all persons afflicted with Rheumatism to this
very valuable medicine One bottle we BE-
ieve, will cure any case, however violent.
The senior editor of this paper, during the
last winter and present spring, suffered so
much from Rheumatism that he was unable at
times to walk or stand upon his feet, or even
hange his position in bed without ASSURANCE
A part of a bottle cured him in few days
His son was also afflicted with the same dread
full complaint, and suffered the most excrutia-
ting pain until an application of the Embroca-
ton was made, which effected an entire cure
Col. Minor Of this city, also had severe
attack of Rheumatism this spring from which
he suffered severely, and which confined him
to his bed for several weeks. Nothing gave
him any relief until he sent to Rocheport, for
ty miles, and procured bottle of this medi-
cine, which expelled his pains almost instantly
Mr.. Myers ought to have an agent in every
county in the State, with which this med
:cine should be deposited for sale. We repeat
our honest conviction, for the benefit of those
suffering with rheumatism, that one bottle of
this medicine will cure the most violent case
that can be found.-lIetropolitan.

THE DAYS OF CHILDHOOD.

; .essI -s 9. .----
The pleasant days OF Childhood,
How swiftly have they flown,
Like young flowers in the wildwood,
When autumn winds have blown;
They're gone, they're gone forever,
They will no more return,
Though Memory hold them in the heart
Like ashes in the urn.
The happy days of Childhood,
When innocence and gee
With gentle fingers tuned the hear,
To music wild and free.
They're gone, they're gone forever,
like rivers to the main,
Their dancing days Of joy and mrth
Will ne'er return again.
The holy days Of Childhood
Ere evil thoughts came near,
When in the heart no sin was found,
And on the cheek no tear;
They're gone, they're gone forever,
Like foot prints or the shore,
Washed on. by Times relentless waves
They will return no more.
The pleasant, holy, happy days,
Lilies only blossom time,
Where are your buds which promise CAV
or flowers in summers prime?
Art gone, aye, gone forever,
Ye haunt the heart and brain,
And Memory keeps ye to annoint
Lies after years OF pain.

houses-many foated down the stream
and will never be found. and many were
crushed under the wei ght Of the wreck.
and their bodies will not rise for some
time. The Delta estimates the killed and
those who will die Of their wounds at ! so.
and the wounded at 100 more-making a
total of ESQ persons killed and wounded
by one steamboat explosion!
The scene after the disaster is describ-
