WHATEVER concerns the health and
w happiness of the people is ut all times
of the most valuable Importance. take it,
for granted that every person will do al
in their power to save the lives of their chill
dren, and that every person will endeavor to
promote their own health ut all sacrifices.-
feel il to be my duty to solemnly assure
you that WORMS, according to the opinion
of the most celebrated physicians, are the
primary causes of large majority Of dsca-
ses to which children and adults are liable
ifyou have an appetite continually changea-
BILE from one kind of food to another, bad
breath, pain in the stomach, picking at the
nose hardness and fullncss of the belly, dry
cough, slow fever pulse irregular-remem-
Der that all these denote Worms, and you
should at once apply the remedy
HOBENSA CKS WORM SYRUP
An article founded upon scientific princi-
pies, compounded with purely vegetable sub
stances, being perfectly safe when taken, and
can be given to the most tender infant with
decided beneficial effect. Where Bowel
Complaints and DiarrhGa have made them
weak and debilitated, the tonic properties of
my Worm Syrup are SUCH that il stands
wothout an equal in the catalogue of medi-
cines in giving tone and strength to the stom-
ach, which makes it an infalible remedy for
those afflicted with Dyspepsia The aston
Ishing cures yerformed by this syrup, after
physicians have failed, is the best evidence
of its superior efficacy over all others.
THE TAPE WORM
This is the most difficult worm TO destroy
ofall that infest the human system, It grows
to an almost indefinite length, becoming SO
coied and fastened in the intcstines and
stomach, affecting the health so sadly, as to
cause st. Vitus' Dance, Fits, &c, that those
afflicted seldom if ever suspect that it is Tape
Worm hastening them TO an carly grave. In
order to destroy this worm n very energetic
treatment must be pursued. Itwoud, there
fore, be proper to take TO 8 of my Liver
Pills, so as to remove all distractions, that
the Worm Syrup may act direct upon the
worm, which must be taken in doses of 2
tablcspconfuls 3 times day. These direc-
tons followed have never been known to fail
in curing the most obstinate case of Tape
Worm.

A Song of the Harvest.
BY GEoPREY GENTLE.

BY GEoPREY GENTLE.
THERE'S whisper in the meadow,
There's rustic in the field,
With a song in labor measure,
Labor chorus in the field.
'Tis the whisper of the harvest,
IT'S the rustic Of the grain
Tis the chorus of the reapers,
Busy reapers of the grain.
Hark the soft and dreamy whisper:
Hark the rustic soft and low!
Hark the chorus quick and cherry,
To the rapid sickle's blow,
Like the breathing of a maiden,
Like the sound of April rain
Are the echoes in the meadow.
With the reaper's loud refrain !
Graceful fields, We must be wasted,
Furnished grain thow wilt be shorn-
For the rustling of the sickle,
Fiercely sounds upon the morn
Still the whisper soft and dreamy,
And the rustic swift and low
Hark the chorus quick and cherry,
To the rapid sickles blow.
Golden heads will strew the stubble--
Dropping, yellow, ripe and serc,
Stems of Summer in thick vcrdurc,
Ere the Autumn wither there:
And the breeze that gave them music,
And the sun that lit their smiles
Will be sighs amid their ruins,
And fire on their piles !
Thus the sale, unsparing reaper
Ghastly reaper of the doom,
Layeth age and youth together,
In the harvest of the tomb;
And the voice that gave them pleasure,
And the lore that lit their life,
Der the death is turnedto mourning
Der the grave is changed to strife
But there is little singer
In the stubblc by the grave;
Ever thrilling merry music,
In the stubble by the grave;
And its song is like the whisper,
Like the rustic in the grain
Like tho echoes in the meadow,
With the reapers' loud refrain.
Like the blithesome song of pleasure,
Like the words of hope and mirth-
Like tiIc gentle sounds that tlnkle
On the joy-enkindled hearth!
And it tolls in sprightly measure,
In wild and gladstone strain,
That the grain will rustic lowly,
And the dead will live again!

This Powder Is an admirable substitute

vantage over Yeast in making the batter
perfectly light and ready for baking the
instant 1t is mixed. Buokwheat and
other Cakes, when made with this Pow

THE u 3. NAvY.-The Journal of Com
merce urges the attention of government to
the increase of our naval power, as necessa-
ry to secure due respect for our neutrality,
and for our commerce. When our Minister
to France complained to Napoleon of the
violation of our neutrality, under his edicts,
which were retaliatory to the British orders
in Council, he cxclaimcd-"Let America de.
clare her rights, and defend them on the
ocean with her cannon" The Journal
saws -
"The presentation Of respectable naval
force by the United States, might deter for
eign powers from renewed experiment up
on our meckness and forbearance. In word
our government ought to be prepared to de-
clare and enforce our neutrality, in the wars
tnat may happen. 1t is by this means alone
that the United States may be kept out of
the coming struggle--for como it will,
whether from the present or future state
Of things. II is TO be remembered that it is
not upon the sea alone that foreign pow ers
may violate our neutral rights. They, in
former times, took possession Of our ships
and Of their cargoes, while in foreign ports
under the guaranty both Of treaties and of
the laws Of nations. The same thing will
happen again, beyond doubt. in whatever
war such aggressions should involve us, it
is certain II will be consigned to naval dis
putationP'
