The Visit of the Queen.

While official persons are preparing TO cele
brate tho visit of the Queen with festivities
ard illuminations, poet in the Dublin Irish,
man, breathes such welcome to the RoyaI
guest, as follows:
THE SECOND ADVENT.
Shout yourselves hoarse. ye supple slaves!
God grant it do you good!
But carpet first the frequent graves
Nor let the dead intrude-
Make bonfires of those ghastly bones,
That ne'er have buried been,
And down in Pean-hymns the groans
OF sculI and Skibbereen!
She comes! make every window bright
Prepare the worthless show
'Twould wiring her woman's heart outright
To learn one half your woe,
Reveal not how they fed died,
Who loved you to The last;
But lose, in one days tinsel pride,
The future and the past.
Evon while Royal galleys wait
Fair seas and fav'ring skies,
Far to the south, with d oleful freight,
a lonely vessel flies.
Oh! turn your thoughts from all the glare
That cheats your eyes around,
And see your nobest pining there,
Your best and truest bound.
Alas for the m It's vain to weep
Assume 4 cheerful smile;
And rouse the tones of Joy that sieeP
Long silent through the Isle
Sho knows not, she can never know,
what sufferings ours have been
Then daub with red the cheeks of woe,
And fly to greet the Queen.

The Land That We Live In.
BY A. B. MEEK.

Oh! bright is the land that we live in,
And soft blow the breezes around
The stars make palace of heaven,
And flowers anaRel the ground!
The orange and ches tnut fiinging
Their ordors divine the gale,
And the mockiny- birds melody ringing
From the bowers that circle the vale!
Then here's to the land that live iu-
The land of the locust and lime!
And the song for the sweet stars of heaven,
That brighten this beautiful CLINE!
But 6rearer by far to the minstrel,
Than al the sweet wealth of this land,
Are the maidens who dwell in its bowers,
By mountain, savanna and strand!
And all its rich trophies were given,
AS tributes of beauty to these;
And these the stars of our heaven
The flowers that gladden. the breeze!
Then here's to the land that we live in
The land of the locust and lime!
ANA song for the sweet stars of heaven,
That brighten this beautiful clime
Twas hymned by bard that the planets
Once, charmed from their passionate home,
Assumed the fair features of woman,
And dweIt in the valleys Of Rome!
But sure, if land e'er presented
Temptation TO angels, 'tis ours,
And the VISION of song was invented
From forms in those soft, sunny bowers.
Then here's TO the land that we live in
The land of the locust aud lime!
And song for the sweet stars of heaven,
That brightens this beautiful cline!

The sap will ooze out of some trees
early IN the summer, which not only In

the wounded part to decay.
But in late pruning, the wood, when the
branch is cut off, becomes sound and well
seasoned, and though it may not heal over
so readily as when cut early in summer or
spring, it remains in healthy state. This
is the main consideration. What would

DR. d. Jayne--Dear Sir:-Justice compeis me to
make the following statement OF the extraordinary
effects of your valuable medicine-the Alternative.
certify that my wife afflicted for fourteen
years. during which time her disease bafed the skill
of several eminent physicians. and after finding that
every means that were used failed t. relieve her.
concluded To place her in the Pennsylvania Hospital
hoping that the and treatment she would there
receive from the physicians in that institution, she
might again be restored to health. But to my great
disappointment she grew worse, and became entire
~ deranged III her mind, and was obliged 10 take
her home again ssincurabe'' and bereft of reason.
will here mention that at this time the proni
nent symptoms OF her disease were Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint. attended with sickness the sto-
mach, and vomiting Of very offensive fGtid mucus,
pains in the head. back and stomach, and in the
gi0n OF the heart, with violent attacks of Coic,
troublesome cough from large quantities Of phegm
in her throat which kept her continual, gaggng and
retching to throw it up. She had no. appetite, and
was very weak. She also suffered very much from
uterine disease by which. she confined to her
bed. Add to all the abovc dcranged state Of her
mind. (Which at this time truly aw ful, j and
VIII be able to form some idea of her affections.
BY the advice Of friend we commenced giving
her your Alternative, in the doses Of q teaspoonfu
three times day, and found that il helped her, We
also gave her your Vermifu.e to increase her arre
ttc, and the Sanative Pills to regulate her bowels.
She had not taken two bottles Of the Alternative, he
fore it operated upon her in wonderful manner, fill
ing her face with small red pmples, and caused her
10 eXpeCtorale large quantities OF corruption. beIore
which, her breath offensive we could not re-
main in the room with her unless the doors were
open. Finding the Alternative doing her so much
good, increased the dose according to the direc
tons, and she cootinued to improve daily, until fl
nally she restored to health in body as well as
in mind!
hope you viii delay no time in laying this before
the public, willing to be qualifeda at time
to the truth Of the above statement, and that it was
your Alternative which cured her.
