While ocean leaves our country's strand. "
GA, country! let tie strain go cut,
Ana,ch6 through carth'S wide domain:
Let angels Join the inspiring shout!
And echo it back to Garth AGAIN!
One undivided happy land;
While ocean leaves our countIys and
The Inioni join the iuliant cry.
Let mantlng youth, and lettering age,
Join in the strain, as passing by,
AMI Tighten back with sure r,esase,

No d rob on, banner OF one star.
The Union, there our safety lies,
The worlds last hope is fixed on thee;
1t watches thee with longing eye,
Thou land Of llvavcli. born liberty,

United and the hircing hosts
OF Lur0lcs potrntatts shall quail
And flee before frcdcna's hosts
Like waves before the gale
United fnnly, Let us stand
W Lille ocean lavcs our country's strand.
Our country. oh, our native land!
Our hearts, eXulting cling to thee;
Thy children as a brother bard
Shall gard thy dear bought liberty;
The starry banner of the skies,
Shall be the cynnSurc We prize.

THIS remedy has won for itself such notoricty
from it's of every variety of pulmonary disease,
that it is entirely unnecessary to recount the evil
dences of its virtues in any community where it
has been employed. So wide is the field of its
fulncss, and so numerous the cases of its cures,
that almost every section Of the country abounds
in persons publicly known, who have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases of the
lungs by its use. When once tried its superiority
over every other medicine of its kind is too appa-
rent to escape observation, and where its virtues
known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distressing and dangerous aticc
tons of the pulmonary organs which are incident
10 our climate And not only in formidable at
tacks upon the lungs, but for the mildcr varieties
of COLDS, CoUGHs, HoARsENEss, &c. and for
CHILDREN it is the pleasantcst and safest medicine
that can be obtained
As it has long been in consistent use throughout
this section, we need not do more than assure the
people its quality is kept up to the best that it ever
has been and that the genuine article is sold by

tons of sulphur annually, which is Imported to
this country from the volcanic rigions of Sicily.
For political reasons, the King of Naples has
recently prohibited the export of sulphur to
any of the Kingdoms now at war. Reckoning
the value Of sulphur at &5 per ton, implies i,

This loss Of sulphur will be very severely felt
for a short time in England but eventually it
will be of great service as we have as much
