! A MELANCHOLY CoNFEssIoN.-We were
shown by our Tax-COlletor, on yesterday a
ten dollar bill with the following endorse
ment upon it, written perhapes by some pen
! itent young man, who, mourning over his
follies, would warn others from following in
his footsteps youths beware of gambling:
this is the last of twenty-three thousand dol
lars, left me by my good old christian father
the lst of November, 1851, this is the Ist of
September, 1852, all spent at the gambling
table in Charleston"
How startling and full of melancholy this
confession, that the ample legacy which
fond parent, latter years of toll and denial had
accumulated, and left to his child, should
thus, in the brief space of one year, be reck-
lessly spent at the gaming table! How po-
tent the spell which could thus lead on step
by step the deluded votary TO his DOOM Per
haps, now, he who was once pOssessOr of his
fortune is suffering the pinchings of poverty,
and in the bitterness of his soul is reaping
the fruits of his folly, friendless and home
less wanderer. OF all the vices young and
old are addicted to, there is none more seduc-
tive and fatal in its consequences, than that
of gaming; it is the syren song, which lures
incautious youth to ruin; or the Dead Sea
fruit, which is beautiful to the sight, but
turns to ashes in the taste. To the gamb-
ling table how many young men can trace
back the commencement of their downfall
and utter ruin! Gambling and drinking are
twin sisters ard rarely found separate. Is
there then no young man in our midst to
whom the W rning Of this unhappy youth
may be repeated! If so, we would say, be-
ware of the destinations Of the gambling Ia
bic, and in the LANGUAGE of the poet:
Look round, the wrecks OF play behold,
Estates dismembered mortgaged, sold,
Their owners now to iails confined
Show equal poverty of mind"

A GREAT BLESSING TO THE AFFLICTED.
Dr. McLane, the inventor of the celebrated
Liver Pills used these Pills for several years
in his practice, before he could be induced to
offer them to the public in such a manner as
to make them known throughout the country.
This learned physician felt the same repug-
nance that all high minded men of science
feel in entering the lists against those unscru-
pulous empires who obtrude their useless
nostrums upon the public, and rely upon a
system of putting to sustain them. Con
vinced, however, of the real value of the Liver
Pills and influenced by the plain dictates of
duty, the Doctor finally sacrificed his delicate
feelings on the altar of public good. His
great medicine has not disappointed the ex-
pectations of the medical practitioners, at
whose instance he was induced to forego his
inclinations. From every quarter do we hear
the most gratifying accounts of its wonderful
curative eftects-the East and the West, the
North and the South, are alike laden with
"tidings of great Joy" from the afflicted
These wonderful Pills have completely con
quered that great scourge of America the
Liver Complaint.

ADVICE TO YOUNG LADIEs.-A gentleman
who is himself the father of several interest
ing daughters, has furnished the following
good advice to young ladies, to an exchange
for publication. Read it, young ladies, and
do not forget it,
"Trust not to uncertain riches, but prepare
yourself for every emergency in life. Learn
TO work, and not be dependent upon servants
to makeyour bread, sweep yoar floors and
darn your own stockings. Above all, do not
esteem too lightly those honorable young
men who sustain themselves and their parents
by the sweat of their brow, while you care
for and receive in your company those lazy
idle popinjays who never lit a finger to help
themselves, so long MS they can Keep body
and soul together, and get sufficient to live
in fashion.
Young Women, remember this, and instead
of sounding the purses of your lovers, and
examining the cut Of their coats look into
their hearts and habits. Mark if they have
trades, and can depend upon themselves; see
if they have minds which will lead them to
LOOK above butterfly existence. Talk not
of the beautiful white skin and soft delicate
hand-the fine appearance of the young gen.
teman. Do not let such foolish considera-
tons enter your BRAIN "Look TO the hard
working mechanic"

New METHOD OF MAKING MIRRoRs.-The
editor of the Prattsville Advocate has been
shown by Rev. l.. l.. Hill, the inventor OF
Hllotyping,a method of silvering glass,
which he considers of great practical value in
the manufacture of mirrors:
"Mr Hill took small glass, such as
Daguerreans use for covering their pictures,
and in forty seconds it was transformed into
perfect mirror-perfect in every respect
We kept an eye upon it the whole time, the
process was fully explained, and the result
cannot be eXceled. Out of some three hun
dred experiments which Mr.. Hill has made,
he has never failed in making perfect mirror
"ln this mode of silyering glass;; there is
not particle of the usual amaIgam of tin.fol
and quicksilver, but it is composed wholly of
pure and unaduterated silver. The discovery
was made while he was experimenting on
glass, with Il view of adapting it to heliochro-
my, never dreaming of its beautiful appica-
ton to the manufacture of mirrors. The
invention did not cost him an hours study,
and he has already had liberal offers for the
right to manufacture, together with the
knowledge of doing so. The expense of
manufacturing mirrors by this new and dura-
BILE method will not, we think, exceed half
the cost of manufacturing the kind now used;
besides, they are always perfect, and no art
of man can deface them without breaking
them to pieces. We hazard nothing in pre-
dieting that it will create IN entire revolution
in the art of making mirrors, and that in Il
few years at most, there will not be mirror
of the kind now used, to be found in the
country"
