Who looks wJman's vanished bloom,
Her wasted form and languished air
Nor murmuls that ruthless doom,
Should snatch away the young and fair.
So uncosipainng in her woe,
So meek and lovely in distress,
That though she seemed prepared to go,
We cannot learn to spare her less
Would she return her faded eye,
And be relieved of all her ills,
Oh, let her be advised to try

effective purgative pill which could be relied as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an exten
sve trial of its virtues has conclusiyey shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose designed
1t is easy to make physical pill, but not easy tc
make the best of all pills one which should have
none Of the objections, but all the advantages, of
every other. This has been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully submit to
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate fol
the patient hitherto that almost every purgatiYe
medicine is acrimonious ard irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
gripping pain and revulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless it arise from previously existing obstruc
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm arise from their use in any
quantity but it is better that any medicine should
be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they ap-
phcable given on the box. Among the COM
plants which have been speedily cured by them we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
Of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of APP
petite, Listlessness Irritabity, Bilious Headache,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side
and Loins for, in TRUTH all these are but the
sequence of diseased action in the liver AS
aperent, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
iveness, Piles, Collie, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof
ula and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body,
Ulcers and impurity of the blood; in Short any
and every case where a purgatiye is required
They have also produced some singularly sue
cessful cures in Rheumatism Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palptation of the Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken in the spring of the year. to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change of seasons.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe
lite and vigor. They purify the BLOOD and, by their
Stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno
vate the strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous
though no serious arrangement exists; but
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
physic is required cannot be enumerated here but
they suggest themselves to the reason of every
body; and it is confidently believed this pill viii
answer a better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When then
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need Of
sathartic medicine.

Prairie Fires

The western heavens are nightly aglow
with lurid reflections of the burning prai-
ries. To any one who has never before
seen them there is something sublime, al
most awful, in these sights. The sensa-
tions they awaken are strange, and, to a
mind superstitiously inclined, might not
be unmixed with terror. We have seeu
nothing equal to the first we behcld 0!
these scenes. Long after night had
clothed the landscape in darkness the en-
tire hcavens at the south and west, from
the horizon far up toward the zenith,
seemed canopy Of fire, with shadows
undulating like waves reflected from the
surface of lake of liquid fame. No
light below the clouds could be seen,
which circumstance greatly heightened
the effect. The sight is one, however,
which becomes common and loses much
Of its interest to those who witness it al
most nightly during two or three weeks
every autumn. Yet there is much more
of the grand and the sublime in this fame
reflection than in the actual fires which
cause it,
A great deal of fine writing has been
wasted, innumerable excellent adjectives
have been misused, in describing these
prairie fires. Writers who happened to
see them once in their lives have told of
them in terms the most cxtravagant, and
lugged them into works Of fiction to dc
wonders in the way of roasting herds Of
wild Indians, buffaloes, horses, &c. One
of the first books given to tho child at
school contains, even at the present day,
an exccrable woodcut representing divers
quadrupeds using their legs for their lives
to get away from the fire, which is furi-
ously pursuing at their heels. 1t is unex-
planned, however, to the child that every
animal in wild state will flee from the
sight of fame; that it is an instinct of his
nature, and not any knowledge he may
have of danger, which makes him do so.
The character of prairie fire depends on
the wind aud the combustible nature OF
the grass. If the latter be dry it of course
burns rapidly, and in high wind the
fires will move with great speed; but the
hS'Si anu tuC
space over which the fame exists as it ad-
vauces is at most but two or three feet in
width, as the fame burns down very rap.
idly as it goes on. A horse, with rider,
might always be able to leap across with
ease and safety. The most sanguine
prairie fire We have ever seen, which was
with full 'ten-knot' wind. might have
been crossed By man on foot with small
damage to his pantaloons and whiskers.
Once over, he is entirely safe, waste Of
only blackencd ashes, without smoke or
cinders, reaching to tho very border of
the blaze.
The Indians, erstanding the instinct
of animals to run away from the blaze,
set the prairies on FIRE to frighten the game
from covert. They have no fear them
selves of sustaining any damage, having
no fences, or stacks, or houses to be con-
sumed, the only disastrous effects, we be-
lieye, which prairie fires can haye.-CAi.
