The Dr. wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry that l
bought of You, has been of such signal benefit in
my family, that IwishtO make its virtues known
for the benefit of the public.
Ny wife took cold at the time Of her conine-
ment, which settled on her Lungs. The physi-
clans pronounced her disease consumption. She
had proflse night sweats and coughs; she was gi-
ven up, for we despaired of her recovery, and her
child partook of her complaint. She then com
meneed taking Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry,
a nd three bottles effected an entire Gu re with h

Dear JOURNAL, we with welcome greet
Thy pages chasto, the printing neat;
With eye of pride we meet the change,
From tiny leaves DER sheets to range
We are pleased to find so many grains
From pens that once seemed bloodless veins.
There's Halo" we are glad to see,
Comes forth with whipping energy,
Winding his bugle very loud.
Just see he calls forth quite crowd
To listen to his sermons wise
Their mouths wide opeu-so's their eyes.
He gives Old Hundred sound 10 chant
From forty leyenth metre cant.
The choir don't ,ing--for why, you know,
The congregations troubled SO
1t deafens all their aged ears
It consternates their pulse with fears.
Those awful hieroglyphc books,
With pig-tail cranes and trammel crooks
The tuning fork its limbs of steel
Doth chill them so they cannot kneel.
You VIII excuse the choir, know;
The people here are brought up so.
Miss Rose Abell," with tresaes bright,
Thy lance doth challenge every knight
q inning to he his equal ALL
In subarb glade or lordly hall.
Hold fast thy aim with blade Of pearl
Be blind to black balls as they whirl.
And Nannette," too, the gentle fair,
Doth shake her roses DER the air,
Dripping her pearls, their richness fall,
Der sheets where genius viii them Gull
Spare not the fragrance of thy thought
A treasure which no wealth hath bought.
"Nelly's" grieved pen is wrapped in sleep
Though dry her eyes, her pulse doth weep.
Why give us sigh to cruel " Joe?"
He isn't worth a groat, know.
With borrowed Tyre from N oore's rich Yeins,
He throws his pathos o'eF thy chains,
Winding it gently round thy soul
His sleeve doth laugh--he's found the goal.
Now W***, thou worthy sage,
Weread with interest thy page
From woman's lights to license laws,
Take our fair wishes in the cause.

Take back the wreath of faded love
That withered ere twas mine.
Take back the charm of friendship warm
IT'S useless now to me
1t hurts my finger makes it sore!
And so send it thee.
There was time when, foolish-iike,
dream'd of love, and thee;
But one rude word dissolved the dream
To cold reality.

Lathrop, in one of his sermons, says:
"Ifit were true tina. there is no God.
What evidence can the atheist have that
he shall not live and be miserable after
death, How came he TO exist at all!
Whatever was the cause of his existence
here, may be the cause Of his existence
hereafter. Or If there is no cause. he
NAV exist in another state as in this.
And if his corrupt heart aud abominable
works made him SO unhappy here that
he had rather be annihalated than run
the hazard OF future existence, what
binders but that he may be unhappy
forever? The man thea is fool who
wishes here was no God, hoping mus
10 be secure from future misery, Tor
admitting there is no God. still he may
exist hereafter as well as here; If he
does exist, his corruptions and vices
may render him miserable e,ernally, as

Gop is LoyE.-We sometimes meet
with men who seem to think that any
Indulgence in afFectionate feeling is
weakness. They vii return from jour.
ney and meet their families with dis
tant dignity, and move among their
children with the cold and lofty splendor
of an ice berg. surrounded by its broken
fragments. There is hardly more un
natural sight on earth than one OF these
families withou. q heart. A father had
better extinguish his boys eyes, than
TO take away his heart. Who that
has experienced the JOY Of friendship,
and values sympathy and affection,
would not rather loose all that is beauti-
full in natures scenery, than be robbed
of the hidden treasures Of his hsart!-
Who would not rather bury his wife,
than his love for her? Who would not
rather follow his children to the grave,
than entomb his parental afFection!--
Cherish, then, you hearts bestattectIons.
Indulge in the warm and gushing emo
tlons OF flial. parental, and iraternal
love. Think it not "a weakness. God Is
love. Love God, love every body and
every thing. Teach your children to
love the rose, the Robin; TO love
their parents; TO love their God. Let
i, be the studied object OF their domes-
tic culture TO give them warm hearts aud
ardent affections. Bind your whole
family together by these chords. You
cannot make them too strong. Reli-
gion is love to God, love TO man.
