the following:
The sun is called masculine from his sup.
porting and sustaining the moon, and in find
ing her the withal to shine away as she does of
night, and from his being obliged to keep
such family of stars besides. TIE moon is
feminine. because she is constantly changing,

The church is feminine-because she is mar
red to the State. And Time is masculine be-.

PARKERSBURG MINERAL WE'LL,

TIME undersigned, Proprietors, respectfully
announce that this celebrated watering
place. is now open for the reception and accom-
modation of visitors. During the last year, con-
siderable additions have been made to the prop
erty, in the way of buildings, sleeping apart
ments, &c.-so that we will be enabled to enter
tain larger number of guests, with more comfort
than heretofore. The subscribers deem it unnec-
essary to commend the medicinal properties Of the
water in these wells; their virtues are already so
well known aud so highly appreciated by the
public, that further commendation would be
superfuous. Let it suffice, that, in cases Of
dyspepsia, dropsy, and other maladies arising from
dsordered conditions of the liver or stomach, the
PARKERsBURG MINERAL WELLS are unriyalled, as
almost countless witnesses will testify, who came
hither as inyalds and were cured by these waters.
Our Omnibuses will leave the Wharf boat at
Parkersbuig at 81 O'Clock every morning for the
speedy and comfortable transit Of passengers and
baggage, between the Towr and Wells. The
