after they have done their guilty race Of mischief
but of a medicine long established, universally
priced, and which has met the hearty approval of
tha Faculty itsefp
Evidence upon evidence has been received like
the foregoing from all sections OF the Union, the

That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint
and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt after using it as
directed. 1t acts specifically upon the stomach and
liyer-it is preferable to calomel in all bilious dis

Divide me from thy grave, where so oft
In childhood laid my bosom on the turf
That covered thine, though the drear winter
storms
Long, long have cast ocr these their spotless
shrouds,
And night her pail, and though thine image sweet,
The one dear picture cherished through my life,
Grows dim and DINNER in my brain, thy voice
Is ever in my ear and in my heart,
To tench me love and gentlencss and truth,
And warn me from the peris that surround
The paths of pilgrims DER the desert earth

NV MOTHER.
DY cEsRGE D. vasxncE.

My mother, It's long and weary time
Since last looked upon thy sad, sweet face, &
Andlistened to the gentle spirii-tones
OF thy dear Voice OF music. ] was then
a child bright haired child. The fearful thought
That tbon was passing from the earth away
Was my young iife's FIRST Through the Ions
And solemn watches Of that awful night,
Kind friends who dearly loved US, gathered round
Thy dying couch. and in my agony,
My childish agcny, / shrieked to them
To save thee mother, but with streaming tears,
And in the tones Of holy sympathy,
They told me thou wouldst die.
OH then bowed
My head to God whose worship thy dear Iips
Had taught me, and to Him with bursting heart
prayed that he would spare thee And. as there
knelt, a holy calm, as if from Heaven,
Game stealing DER my spirit, and voice,
As twere melody from somc star,
Floated into my soul. II said that thou
Must leave me, that thy home vas in the sky
That thou sill wouldst love and guard thy child,
And hover round him ON thy angel wings
In all his wanderings here.
Ny mother, then
l rose in more than childhocd's strength and
watched
The fading OF thy life. Dear frieLds still hung
Around thy pillow, but saw them not
Wild lamentations and deep sohs were brcathed
From hearts of anguish but | heard them not
A man Of God poured forth his soul in prayer
For thy souls welfare, but heard him not.
saw but thy wan cheeks, thy parted lips,
Thy half closed eyes, SO meek and calm beneath
Their blue yened lids thy bright disheveled locks
Thy pallid brow, damp with the dews Of death,
And the faint heaving of thy breast, that oft
In happy hours had piowed my young head
To sweet ami gentle slumber, and heard
Bnt the flint struggles Of thy falling breath,
Thy sitting signs, and The high, holy words
That seemed to fall like dew-drnps on my soul
From out the blessed skies. An suddenly
Thy blue eyes opened, and a moment looked
Upon thy child with one fixed, burning gaze,
In which the deep and boarded love Of years
Wasail concentrated oonvalsive thrill
Shot through the 6bres OF thy wasted frame;
And death was there-ah, thou vast mine and
deaths.
And then my tears again rushed wildly forth,
But light from heaven broke through them with
soft
Pris'natic glory, as gazei,
And saw thee mounting, like anew made star,
Far upthy pathway in the heavens.
Long years
Long years. my dear lost mother, have gone by
Since that wild hour. My childhood and my youth
Have passed away, and my manhoods prime
Is fading like vision, for my years
Far, fan, outnumber thine upon the earth,
This dark, cold exile Of the heart
From the bright home to which it longs to fly,
And be at rest forever ! have seen
Much, much of joy and sorrow have felt
Life's storms and sunshine batl meier have known
Such raptures MS my full heart shared with thee
In chidhood's fairy years. Now, time no more
Scatters fresh roses round my feet, his hand
Lets fall upon my path but pale, torn flowers
Dead'hlossons, that the genial ews of eve,
The morning sunlight aud thenoontide rains
Can ne'er revive again, forthes are dust,
All dust and ashes.

| "A JUDGE PRESENTED BY THE CRA ND
JURY.-The courtroom on Friday
presented quite a warlike appearanc co
the Judge, Jurors, aud Grown off
GERS being the principal combatants.
1t was the Grand Jury on the ohe
side, and the Court on the othef l.
The facts of the case, as we under
stand them, are these: The Grand
Jury Of the City and County of St.
fJohn came into the Court with a pre-
sentiment, which was read by the fo1 e.
man, the reading of which, on accouh BIT
of the grave charges contained in 1t,
caused more excitement than we ever
remember to have seen in Court. 1t
Fimpeached the Judge, the Sheriff, and
Mr.. Waters, accusing them With hay
ing been priyy TO the settlement bf
an Indictment against Rev. Bann, a
Catholic priest, who had been charged
with assaulting one Ellis, a police Of
fieer, in the performance Of his duty.
The language used In the present.
nlent was strong and unequivocaH;
and after the foreman had concluded
his honor Judge Wilmbt, in an en-
phatic manner replied to the Jury,
denying in the strongest, terms ii 10
statements made in the presentmelt
in reference to himself-said they
were unfounded and untrue. I'll 10
High Sheriff next rose and repudia-
ted the charges mddc against him, as
did Nr. Waters. The FOREMAN
claimed the protection of the uourt,
The scene was most singular one
while it lasted 1t struck like aclap
of thunder upon the attention of all
present, who were not prepared that
day fol any thing more than'eommor.
There was terrible deal of think
ing going on while the. electricity
lasted The Jury retired to their
room and some time afterEarh
brought in another presentment.-
The Judge read this missive, which
must have contained an extra charge
of saltpetre, for his honor, after hur-
riedly glancingz it over handed it to
the clerk, directing him at the same
time to return it to the jury as B
document unfit for the records of the
court. The exact merits Of the
case we are unacquainted With.-.W
