Hobensack's Liver Pills.

No part of the system is more liable to
disease than the LIVER, it serving as a fl
terer to purify the Blood, OF giving the
proper secretion to the bile; so that any
wrong action Of the liver effects the other
important parts Of the system, and results
variously, in Liver Complaint, Jaundice,
Dyspepsia, &c. We should, therefore, watch
every symptom that might indicate wrong
action of the Liver. These Pills being com.
posed of ROOTS and PLANTS furnished by
nature to heal the sick: Namely, lst, An
EXPECTORANT, which augments the Sc.
erection from the Pulmonary mucus mem
brane or promotes the discharge of secreted
matter. 2nd, An ALTERNATIVE, which
changes in some inexplicable and insen.ible
manner the certain morbid action of the sys-
TEN. Sd, Atomic, which gives tone and strength
to the nervous system, renewing health
and vigor to all parts Of the body. 4th, A
CATHARTIC, which acts in perfect harmo.
ny with the other ingredients, and operating
on the Bowels, and expelling the whole mass
ofcorrupt and vitiated matter, and purify.

restores health.

Only a few Faults.

Alas, that so many fair young girls
are deceived by this specious reasoning |!
He smokes little, chews little, and
drinks little-never passes the bounds
Of sobriety. He is rather fond of
amusemens-what man of spirit is not !:
True, he is seldom at home-but the
idea Of man sitting for ever by the
chimney-corner-ridiculous! He is fond
Of dress but then he is 80 handsome !
All these little straws that point the
way the wind of ruin blows, are regarded
as trivial things-only a few faults.
After marriage, when the smoking, the
chewing, and drinking have become con-
frmed habits, the foolish wife sings a
sadder strain. Then her children want
for shoes, but her husband never for
segars and drink. Her own clothes are
patched and mended-no so the broken
windows and his wretched habits. The
The few faults, like grain of mustal d
seed, have grown and increased hun.
drcd fold. Due bills come iu-the rent
is unpaid-friends forsake the drunkard' g
family.
Then comes the miserable expediency
of moving into miserable house, minus
all conveniences Where the rain pours
into the garrets, and the rats tramp all
night-where the children get cold
grow sick and die with fever, and the
heart-broken woman sits up till morn
ing gray, to stitch her ill-paid work
turning ever aud anon, with stiff ID
sigh, to gaze through tears upon the
stihed corpse.
Sometimes she starts The ftful
winds drumming upon the bliuds-was
it his step' And soon she is childless
and sick and dying-and she does
breathe her last, while he who had once
"only a few faults" sings and shouts
IN drunken brawls at the pest-tavern OF
the rumseller.
This true picture has been thousand
times painted, and its duplicates hang
up in the sad chambers of how MANY
thousand hearts And yet the thought
less girl, blinded by passion, needless Of
consequences, reiterates, He has only
few faults" and gives herself up tc
corruption more noisome than the grave
and to fate the horrors of which NJ
pen can portray.-Mrs. Denison.

s% A lawyer built himself an Office
in the form OF hexagon, or six-square.
The novelty Of the structure attracted
the attention Of some Irishmen who were
passing by; they made full stop and
viewed the building very critically.
The lawyer, somewhat disgusted by their
curiosity, lifted up the window, put out
his head, and addressed them
"What do you stand here for, like a

"Your analysis Of the slave laws is very
able, and your exhibition Of their practical
application by the Southern Courts, evince
great and careful research" "Your book
is as impregnable against the charge of ex.
aggeration as Euclid's Geometry, since, like
that, it consists Of propositions and demon
strations. The book is not only true, but it
is unquestionably true"

Ineither expect nor can hope for perfection,
For that never was bachelors lot,
But choosing wife,I would make a selection,
Which many in my situation would not
I'd have-let me see-no I'd not have beauty,
For beautiful women are apt TO be vain,
Yet with small shareI would think il duty
To take her, be thankful. and never complain.
Her form must be good without art to con-
strain it,
And rather above than below middle size;
A something Gt puzzles my brain to explain
Like eloquent language must 8ow from her

She must be we'll bred--or ] could not re.

Good nstur'd and modest, but not over coy :;
Her mind we'll informed, It's the purified
nectar,
That sweetens the cup Of hymenial joy.
Her home she must love, and domestic en-.
ployment,
Have practical knowledge Of household
affairs;
And make it part of her highest enjoyment
To soften my troubles and tighten my cares
Her age would have, at least to be twenty
But not to exceed twenty five at the most
And girls of that age being every where
plenty,
! hope to get one Of the numerous host.
No fortune ask, for I've no prediction
For glitter and show, or the pomp of high

And now have drawn you sketch of a
