THE FALLING LEAVES.

Autumn is come-and under the elm
trees in the village lanes, and in the gar
den summer houses, the yellow leaves lie
thinly strewn, telling us that the bright
days have passed away and the year is
drawing to a close. 1t seems not long
since we saw the first green shoots burst
ing forth to life and beauty; only a few
weeks ago the thick foliage was waving in
the sunshine and birds were singing under
its shade. But short as the time appears,
it has brought to many households, other
changes, sadder than the passing away oil
summer or the whitening of leaves.
From oDe family, the father may have
been taken away; from another the moth
er; and many have been made desolate by
the death Of a little boy or girl, since the
first budding of green leaves in the spring.
The gay, the healthy, the infant in its era
die, the blooming youth, and the old man
tottering under his burden of years--death
comes to each and all. The wi;hered
leaves that fall silently through the air, and
rustic under our feet, should teach us thai
We too must fade and die. Is this a sad
and melancholy thought? 1t is indeed
sad to the worldly heart, which has never
been brought by the Holy Spirit to love the
things of God; but it is a happy thought
to those who know the Saviour, and trus,
in him for pardon and eternal life.

medicine has recently come under my observa
ton, not because l sought for it, but merely by
accident, viz, in the case of the lady OF the Rev.
H. Wisemm. whose family physician have been
for twelve years, during the whole of which time
Mrs. Wiseman has been in feeble health, and un-
der medical treatment, the main difficulty in her
case being weak aud diseased Lungs. Her cough
gradually grew worse, and early in the spring of
lS45. her situation became alarming. ] attended
her carefully, and employed all the known reme-
dies OF Therapeutics, which only gave partial re.
lief. Mrs. Wiseman had become emaciated aud
worn down, all the symptoms OF pulmonary con-
sumption appearing present. l was compelled at
this period to leave on business, and Mr.. Wiseman
wished me to obtain a bottle of the Balsam OF
Wild Cherry. thinking it might palliate her symp-
toms during my absence. But when in Gallipolis.

THE CONTRAST,

saw a vast multitude of the sick and
dying, all fast Fastening to death; and |
heard a voice saying to each and all:
There is life for the asking" and there
was but one or two Of all that great com
pany raised their voices to beg that boon.
saw a band of weary travellers in a
sandy desert, parched with thirst, and |
heard a voice saying to them: "There is
water for the seeking" ''Ho, every one
that thirsteth, come ye TO the waters!" and
directly in sight appeared a cool and spark
ling fountain, gushing from a rock which
threw its deep shadow across the "weary
land" and but few there were who made
the effort to reach the grateful shade Of
the rock, or to slake their thirst in its
waters.
There is gold for the digging" pro.
claims another voice: and thousands of
eager questioners cry, "Where-where!'
Far, far away overthe deep waters, across
the dangerous passes of the mountain;
danger and disease must be braved-but
what of all that! there is 'gold for the dig
ging," at the end. And how they throng,
and press, and crowd, to reach the far off
land!
"What shall it profit a man, if he gain
the whole world and lose his own soul; or
what shall he give in exchange for his
soul!"

WORTH KNOWING.

A young lady of this city, while in the
country some years ago, stepped on a
rusty nail, which ran through her shoe and
foot. The inflammation and pain were very
great, and lock jaw was a~pprehended. A
friend of the family, however, recommend
ed the application Of a beet taken fresh
from the garden, and pounded fine, to the
wound. 1t was done, and the effect was
very beneficial. Soon the inflammation be-
gan to subside, aud by keeping on the
crushed beet, changing it for a fresh one
as its virtue seemed to become impaired.
a speedy cure was effected. Simple but
efectual remedies like this should be known

WIVES.

1t is astonishing to see how well a man
may live on a small income who has a
handy and industrious wife. Some men
live and make a far better appearance on
six or eight dollars a week, than others do
on sixteen or eighteen dollars. The man
does his part well, but the woman is good
for nothing. She will ever upbraid her
husband for not living in as good style as
her ~neighbor, while the fault is entirely her
own. His neighbor has a neat. capable
and industrious wife, and that makes the
difference. His wife, on the other hand,
is a whirlpool into which a great many
silver cups might be thrown and the ap-
pearance of the water unchanged. No
Nicholas the driver. is there to restore the
wasted treasure. 1t is only an insult for
such a woman to talk to her husband about
her love and devotion: it is all CANNON.

3 nigh, was dark and fearful,

The nigh, was dark and fearful,
The blast swept wailing by,
When a watcher, pale and fearful,
Looked forth with anxious eye;
How wistlully she gazeth-
No CLEAN of morn was there;
And her eyes TO heaven she raiseth,
In the agony Of prayer.
Within that dwelling lonely,
Where want and darkness reign,
Her precious child, her only,
Lay moaning in his pain;
And death alone can free him
She feels that this must be;
''Bul oh! for morn to see him
Smile once again on me!'
A hundred lights are glancing
In yonder mansion fair,
And merry feet are prancing-
They heed not morning there;
Oh, young and joyous creatures,
One lamp from out your store.
Would give that poor boys features
To his mothers gaze once more.
The morning sun is shining
She heedeth not its ray;
Beside the bed reclining,
The pale, dead mother lay;
A smile her lip was wreathing.
A smile of hope and love,
As though she still were breathing
"There's light for US above!"

COMPOUND SYRUP OF
IiycrWOrt and Tar.

THE HISTORY OF THIS MEDICINE
IS briefly told. 1t Is prepared mostly from a Re.
cipe furnished by the late distinguished Professor
Rogers, after many years Of investigation and
research, and is the one employed by him in his
own practice, and that occasioned his unparaIlel-
led success in curing all complaints OF the Throat
and Lungs. For four years past, the proprietors
have been putting up DR.. Rogers COMPOUND
Syrup IF Liver,c0rt and Tar, in Cincinnati,
Ohio. From this point, it has been distributed
extensively over all the western and south west.
ern states. Hence the reason why so many of
our Certificates are dated at Cincinnati, where
the medicine is best kno,cn, and has been most
fully tested. The first year, its sales amounted
only to about 1000 bottles; but such was its as
tonishing success in curing the complaints for
which it is recommended, that it soon acquired
an immense popularity, and the present year its
sales will exceed $50, 900 battles.
Nor is the demand for it confined to the west.
ern states. Its reputation is spreading over the
whole Union. Although il has never been adver.
tised at all, or even offered for sale in New Eng
land. the proprietors have this day received an
order from Bangor, Me. A few days since, they
received one from Lowell, Mass also one from
Palmyra, N. Y, and another from Columbus,

icine from abroad is so great that the proprietors
cannot supply it from Cincinnati, that they have
now entered into extensive arrangements for man.
