The TREE THAT NEVER FADES
"Mary," said George "next summer
I will not have a garden. Our pretty
tree is dying, and | won't love another
tree as long as live. Twill have bird
next summer, and that will stay all win
ter"
"George don't you remember my
beautiful canary 1t died in the mid
die ofthe summer, and we planted bright
flowers in the ground WHARF we buried
it. My bird did not live as long as the
tree
"Well, I don't see as we can love
any thing. Dear little brother died
before the bird, and | loved him better
than any bird, tree, or flower. U, wish
we could have somthing to love that
wouldn't die !"
The day passed. During the school
hours, George and Mary had almost for
gotten that their tree was dying (; but
at evening, as they drew their chairs to
the table where their mother was sitting,
and began to arrange the seeds they had
been gathering, the remembrance Of the
tree came upon them
"Mother," said Mary" you may give
these seeds to cousin John never
want another garden "
eyes added George, pushing the
papers in which he had carefully folded
them towards his mother" you may
give them all away. If could find some
seeds of tree that would meyer fade,
I should like to have garden. Iwon-
der mother, if there ever was such a
garden 7"
"Yes, George, I have read of gar
den WHARF the trees never die
A real garden, mother :"
yes my son. In the middle Of the
garden, | have been told, there runs a
pur, river of water, clear as crystal
and on each side of the river is the tree
of life-a tree that never fades. That
garden is in heaven. There you ma,
love, and love for ever. There will be
no death-no fading there Let your
treasure be in the tree of life, and you
will have somathing to which your hearts
can cling without fear, and without dis
appointment. Love the Saviour here,
and he will prepare you to dwell in those
green pastures and besides those still
waters"

the question, brother Yates & Furbush.
No doubt Machias is great place-so
is Westerly but there are some people
so inconsciouably ignorant of geography
that we find it necessary to tell them
what State it is in, and we would sug-
gest to the publishers Of the Union
whether it wouldn't be good idea for
them. Now, we are not rery learned
ourself, but at a venture We guess it is
Maine-at all events we shall send the
exchange there for the present.

HoLLowAY's OINTMENT AND PILLS.
AGAIN SUCCESSFUL IN THE CURE OF BAD

ton, Of Stangrat, near Bootle, January 10.
1851. "To Professor Holloway-Sir-Af-
ter my wife's confinement in 184s, she
caught severe cold, which settled in her
right leg and foot. causing it to swell to an
alarming size, ultimately forming into
about twenty wounds, or ulcers, presenting
most fearful appearance. The pain she

which are there to be seen by the pub

The issue of one pound notes during the

daily. After the calling in of these
notes, and the payment of cash, the
Bank of England ardered the burning
of the notes above a certain date, which
process occupied thirteen months, at the
nv rage Of l4I,O 900 daily At,his rate

reckoning that there were burnt twenty.

R4- AS the season is with US, when
there is always much sickness among
children, caused by sudden colds, it may
not be amiss for us to mention that the
new medicine, Ayers Cherry Pecto-
ral," attracting so much Of the public
notice, for the cure of serious Lung
complaints, is, when used in small doses,
one of the very best in the world for
occasional family use. 1t is simple and
harmless for children, as we'll as very
palatable. We use the article ourselves,
and would recommend our readers to
call on j. l.. Moss & Co. and get a bottle
for trial.

Bay" A most extraordinary custom
prevails among the Vizrcs,a a powerful
tribe, occupying an extensive district in
Cabul, among the mountains between
Persia and India. 1t is in fact female
prerogative that has no parallel among
any other people upon the earth, and
that reverses what we are in the habit
of looking upon as the natural order of
things-the women choose their hus-
bands and not the husbands their wives.
If a woman be pleased with a man she
sends drummer of a camp to pin hand
kerchief to his cap, with pin with
which she used to fasten her hair. The
drummer watches his opportunity and
does this in public, naming the woman
and the man is obliged to marry her i
he can pay her price to her father.

A word to our "PatrOns."

Dear Friends, this being the COM
menccment of the half year of the third
volume of the Echo, we deem it not
altogether out of place to say a few
words to you, in confidence, especially
those of you who are indebted to us for
more than one years subscription for
the paper-for We are sorry to be under
the necessity of saying that We have the
names Of some such on our subscription
book. If those of you who owe US for
the current year can read these few
words, and if you are thereby moved to
forward US the years subscription, the
labor Of writing it will not be entirely
lost Those Of you who have paid in
advance may also read, anil congratulate
yourselves that we don't mean you, ex-
ccpt in closing up.
TO those of you who have taken the
Echo from the commencement, and have
never paid the first cent for it we should
like to ask, what you think Of your
selves of course, it is not necessary
for us to say what re think of you. If
the paper is not worth anything-why,
in the name of honest men, don't you
tell us so, and not continue to receive it
while you never intend to pay for it. II
it is worth nothing to you, it costs us
something, and it certainly is Of no par
ticular advantage to us to print papers
AMI circulate them for nothing. We
would, therefore say to such-we should
be very thankful to them if they would
pay all arrearages and continue their
" patronage" with little more prompt
ness in payment.
To those who are indebted to us for
the current year, We would say, that
according to our published terms the
subscription is due US, and though it
may be small amount to you, individ-
ually, it. is, to US, in the aggregate
of an item. We trust you
will, therefore, bear it in mind to pay
up at the earliest possible day, and your
petitioners will, as in duty bound, ever
send you as good paper as cir
cumstances will admit.
TO those who keep squared up on
our book--and we are happy in being
able to say that there is quite a large
number of this class-we tender our
sincere thanks, and shall do our best to
give you your moneys worth AS the
Orientals say-may you live thousand
years, and your number never grow less,
but increase thousand fold.

Bay- The Printers Strike in Pitts
burg has resulted in partial substitu-
tion of females as compositors, in sever
al Of the newspaper Offices of that city.
The girls have shown great readiness
to avail themselves of this new demand
for their services, aud the applications
for employment have already exceeded
the places to be filed. The Pittsburg
Despatch has more than forty candidates
for situations in its composing room.

bg Lucy Stone, it is said, thus
strikes balance of loss and gain be-
tween married and unmarried women.
Gain-thc right of protection. (;) The
right to be maintained. (i) The right
of having her debts paid. Loss-The
custody of her person. The right of her
personal property. The enjoyment Of
her real estate. The advantages of her
own earnings. The power to make a
will. The control of her children The
loss certainly greatly preponderates ir
this summing up. The last item, We
think, should be quite sufficient to deter
any independent minded woman from
entering the married state. We have
always heard that old maids childrel
were much better governed than thos,
of other people. The reason now is yer.
evident--it is because they have tn
4" control of them"

b@- Amity Bonaeorsi, an Italian in


the employ of w. H. & @. O. Stillman,
in the Bushing Shop connected with
j. P. Stillman & Co.'s Machine Shop
in this village, met with sad accident
last Friday. He was oiling shaft when
his sleeve caught, winding him up, aud
crushing his body into a place where it
would seem impossible for a man to 90,
and retain the smallest spark of vitality
The wheel was stopped instantly, and,
to the astonishmert of all, he was ex-
tricated alive and no bones broken,
though very badly bruised and strained,
and with a horrid cash cut nearly halt
around his head, and the scalp partly
torn up. He is now doing we'll, and it
is thought that with proper care he may
recover.
Mr.. Bonacorsi is but twenty-five years
of age, but his history is a sad and
evcntful one. From the limited con-
versation it is possible to hold with him,
and from letters in possession of his en-
ployers, We learn that he is of one of the
first protestant families of Italy, but,
becoming connected with the political
troubles which have swept over that land
for few years past, lie enlisted in the
army. After two years service, the
marks of which he still bears upon his
person, he was taken prisoner, but
escaped from his prison and fed to Sar-
dinia where he was protected for
while, and then sent to this country,
with a number of others, in the Sardin-
ian frigate which arrived in New York
last May. Upon his arrival here, he
found himself in strange land, without
a knowledge of one word of the language,
nothing but the clothes upon his back,
these nearly worn out, and with no trade
whereby to earn his bread Since his
arrival in our village, all the money he
has been enabled to earn has scarce
suficed to replace the wear of his scanty
wardrobe, and by this accident, he is
not only deprived of his only means of
subsistence, but is left almost entirely
destitute of clothing for the coming
winter. A subscription was Immediately
after the accident started for his relief,
and all who knew him subscribed lib
orally. If any of our citizens would like
to give of their abundance, to pay the
expenses of his sickness and to furnish
comfortable clothing for the coming
winter, they can leave it at this Office or
at j. p. Stillman & Co.'S machine shop,
and He who cares for the needy will
bless them in so doing.
