Yes, yes it aches-tlat rotten tooth;
I'll try no longer to conceal 1t;
My face alone would tell the truth,
And heavens knows full well feel it.
Gods, how it tingles Don't you laugh
I'd Just as soon laugh at the dead;
Each nerve is now telegraph,
And sends dispatches through my head.
What did you sayl Cold water-salt-
Hop-poultice, with some opiate drugged!
O yes, know it is my fault;
l should have had the puncture plugged.
Here. shut that door-confound the noise
"Yelp, yelp!" Well, keep from under feet:
1t seems as though those devilish boys
Are mocking me- out in the street
I'd rather have all sorts of ills
With fever burn, ague shake;
Take physic, drugs and patent pills,
Than have this prince ofills-toothache.
Afraid to have it pulled, YOU say
A trifie, and I'd pull your nose:
Can get better! Where, pray
They make them at Jones' White & Cos"
III not endure this longer, no:
If there's dentist to be had
To ease me of this bitter woe,
I'll have it out within mad
Is Mr-, the dentist IN
An aching tooth has made me fret;
But something seems to lull the pain;
Perhaps, sir, you can save 1t yet.
Too long neglected-must come out;
A mere unhealthy, useless she'll;
Twill hurt little there's no doubt,
But when It's over you'll be well.
Well, pull it easy, Doctor, do
Twill not hurt much, think you said;
The gum why you are cutting through!
Oh! ugh! you're pulling off my head
Dear reader, one word let me say,
You've often, doubles, been humbugged,
But never worse, if you delay
To have your crumbling teeth well plugged.

for the same distinguished station. In ordinary
times, this movement would indeed DO strange.
But these are no ordinary times. The South is
in danger; in an imminent danger. The times
demand one at the helm of State, of age, Of ex-
perience, of tried patriotism no novice who
seeks the station to build up party, that his
friends may receive the spos, and he make it
the stepping stone to another and more exalted
station but one who has no ambition, to CRAFTY
who is not painting for national honors and one
who has proven himself too sternly honest to
barter the rights of Georgia or the South for the
highest niche the North can construct for him in
the tenn pie Of fame. Such an one has Elk Cover

He never yielded an inch to the enemies of the

The EARTHQUAKE Shock - SAN FRAN
cIsco.---A correspondent of the New York Sun
writing at A o'clock on the afternoon of thu
18th, says:
About half-past 8 o'clock this morning, on
city was startled by the shock Of an earthquake
Men issued from the shaking houses into thu
streets in Consideration.
Hundreds were without meat and money, al
most without clothes. The boarders at Jones
hotel and the Oriental were at breakfast, and 81
violent was the shock, that they rushed from
the table into the street, oyerturning everything
in their way.
The wharves trembled like aspen leaves, ant
the frame buildings adjoining vibrated som'
eight or ten inches. The brick buildings wert
SO violently shaken as to induce the belief tina
they would fall 10 the ground.
The shook lasted but one instant, but was
long enough to cause the most exciting alarm
The effect seemed to be from southeast L
northwest, and was sensibly felt for a distanc,
of two or three miles.

We are not less confident as to which States
have the greatest share in the ben etits of the
Union AS it is" than is the factory operative as
to where the greatest share of the benefits Of
his labor goes. We have no idea that the Sc
cession of any Southern State could raise a
corporal's guard in the South to coerce her. A
soulIess corporation may with IMMUNITY extort
from the wealth-producing operative the maxi
mum of labor which his health and strength
can yield, relying upon another who stands
ready to step into his place whenever he fails.
But that process cannot be carried on between
the sovereign Stntes of this confederacy, until
their respective citizens shall become recreant
to the exalted trust with which they have been
so nobly endowed.

Government.
His perfect knowledge Of all the Pension Laws,
and the places where are deposited all evidence of
service now extant, will enable him to establish
many claims which have long remained suspend

particularly in the following cases, viz:
Suspended and rejected claims under all the Pen
sion Laws:
Applications for increase of pension, under any

who were married before the LIST Of January, 1894,
he will undertake to establish, under the act of
Fel,ruary I'd, lS4S, their claims TO pensions for
life, commencing the 4th of March, lS4S, when
their pensions under the foregoing acts term-
uated.
For all those widows Of revolutionary officers
or soldiers, who married after 1893, but be-
fore January I'd, 1900, he will undertake 10 estab-

on the 4th Of March, l648, under the act of July

To all those widows ofrevolutionary pensioners
whose claims have been rejected or suspended for
want of proof of service; or those who are in the
receipt of pension under any of the pension
laws, less than that received by their husbands
under the acts of May 18th, 1923, or June 9TH +,
1892, he will ensure the same amount per an

the pension is made to commence by the law I'M
