TIME STILL MOVES ON.

Time still moves on, with noiseless pace,
And we are loiterers by the way;
Few win and many lose the race
For which they struggle day by day;
And even when The goal is gained,
How seldom worth the toll it seems
How lightly valued, when obtained,
The prize that fattering Hope esteems'
Submissive to the winds Of chance,
We toss on Lfe's inconstant sea ;
This bIlow may our bark advance,
And that may leave it on the lee;
This coast, which rises far to view,
May thick be set with rocky mail,
And that, which beetles, DER the blue,
Be safest for the shattered sail.
The cloud that like little hand,
Slow fingers when the morning shines
Expands its volume DER the land,
Dark as forest sea Of pines;
While that which casts vapory screen
Before the azure realm Of day
Rolls upward from the lowland scene,
And from the mountain-tops away.
Oh, fond deceit to think the flight
OF time will lead to pleasures strange,
And ever bring some new delight,
To minds that strive and sigh for change
Within ourselves the secret lies,-
Let seasons vary as they will,
Our heart would murmur, though our skies
Were bright as those of Eden still

Shocking Outrage and Terrible Case OF
lYnChIng.


The Maysvilie lky.) Eagle of Thurs
day last contains the particulars OF
shocking outrage committed in the town
of Manchester, Adams County Ohio by a
free negro man, upon the wife OF Mr.
Morris, while the latter was absent from
home. The negro broke into Mr., Morris
house, and accomplished his villalny alter
desperate struggle with the unhappy
woman, who fractured her own jaw, II Is
stated, in attempting to release the negro's
hold upon. her throat by biting him. The
Eagle says:
The negro then escaped from the house
ard went home to his wife, leaving Mrs.
Morris in little better than dying condI-
ton. Her screams meanwhile had at
lracied assistance, and The negro's wounds
soon led to his detection, which excited
intense Indignation in connection with
two other outrages of a similar nature be-
fore attributed TO him. He was found in
bed, with his face badly scratched and
bleeding, Just as described by his victim
The excited crowd took him forthwith
before day, to an island in the Ohio river,
just above the town, where they hung
him up to a tree, but the rope breaking,
he revived. He then acknowledged the
Internal deed, and would have been hung
up again, but for the interposition Of some
of the less excited in the crowd, whose
counsel prevailed, and the negro was ac
cordingly taken to West Union, lodged in
Jail, and chained TO prevent his escape.
During Monday night, Mr.. Morris
reached home from Cincinnati. On Tues
day morning, crowd of men, with John
Dougherly, IA btother of Mrs. Morrls) at
their head, left Manchester for the county
seat, where they broke open the Jail, burst.
ing off the locks, with hammers and axes.
On reaching the room where the negro
was, Dougherty with one blow from his
axe broke the chain, and then raised the
axe to cleave the negro's skull, but the
arm Of the infuraled man was caught, and
The negro was saved for different death.
lie was taken again to the island, and
hung upon the limb OF tree about 20
feet high. On his way from jail, and even
under his galIows, the negro cursed and
swore terribly, and vowed, if he should
get off alive, he would kill Mrs. Morris at
sight. After hanging until he was dead,
his body was cut down, and, with the
chain still fastened 10 him, deposited in a
box, and buried in the island.

A Sad Event.

The New York Mirror of Saturday re-
lates the following pathetic account of The
death of young lady
Miss Anna NJ. Lachaise, daughter of
James NJ. Lachaise, Of this city, died on
board the Arago on the 81 inst, after =
short illness from brain fever, aged l9
years. This young lady was engaged 10
be married to a gentleman of this city.im-
mediateIy on her arrival, and the bridal
wreath was bespoken. To-day, the flow
ers that were 10 have adorned her nuP
tals are strewn upon the bridal bed OF
death! She was buried i'll her wedding
robes this morning.
The delay in the arrival Of the steamer
caused some anxiety among those who
had friends on board and there was one
who watched al the wharf until midnight
on Friday and when the good news was
teIegraphed 1.-THE Arago is below'--he
went home TO his friends inexpTesslbIy
happy. The next morning, on going ear
Iy TO the ship to welcome the bride of his
heart, he found that "lhe soul Of his souls
idol" had jus, departed. The cold cask-
ct was there, but the beautiful jewel was
gone. 1t is sad thing. at best, to fix
ones affections on these lovely, yet per
ishable beings, whose brittle hold on

THE ROYAL TOUCH,

How the r. X. Resolvent cured the Kings
Evil, after a congress Of Crowned Monarchs
Failed to restore the supplicant to health.
THE FIRST SIGN
The presence of Pimples, Blotches Pustules
letters, Rash Little Sores, Painful ltchings, Hot
Flushes SC, ,are sure indications of the presence
Of foreign and impure humors in the system
and if allowed to mingle with the blood and re-
main in the system corruptlng the blood and
filling the sewers Of boGy with impurities, Sores
and Ulcers will break out, aud cover the body
with their repulsive presence.
The Skin under these poisonous influence be-
comes an eruptive volcano, exhibiting to the
eye the disgusting lava Of disease, in the form OF
Salt, Rheum, Cancers, Ulcers, Fever Sores
Putrid Flesh, Kings Evil, and the most Fright
ftL EruptiOnS ofthe Skin.
Railways Renovating Resolvent has cured
the most terrible Of Skin Diseases and Humors
it will never fail in The worst cases.
LARGE HOLES IN THE NECK.
An Emigrant called upon us a few months
since, who had been troubled with the disease
called "kng's Evil" He had two very large
holes in his neck and his head, body and legs
were covered with the most disgusting and
sickening sores. We Immediately placed him
under the influence of the Resolvent. ln six
weeks from the time he called upon Us every
sore was healed, not even sore was left upon
his body to remind him oflhe Kings Evil"
This man, like thousands of other deuded
persons, had laid himself prostrated before two
Emperors, four Kings, and one Queen, TO be
touched by the fingers of Royalty, believing
that the hands Of their "most sacred majesties
would drive away the evil" The Renovatng
Resolyent had more power in restoring this
moor deluded victim of 4 cruel disease, TO a
sound condition of body, than all the kings and
monarchs on the earth.

HOW to Preserve Women.

There is nothing in the world, SAYS
! the Newark Advertiser, that we think so
much of as we do of the women. Our
mother is a woman-wife, sisters, pretty
cousins are women and the daughters
will be if they live long enough. And
then there is love of women in general
which We do not deny. A fine, magnih-
cent specimen Of the sex, full Of life and
health, ripe red cheek, and flashing eye,
is something that does one good to look al
as she iliumina,es the humdrum sidewalks,
and every day streets. A North River
Steamer under full headway, with colors
flying, is rather pretty sight-rather
stirring and inspiring ; and we pull up our
tired nags to see her pass and admire the
swell she cuts. Comparatively, howev-
er, the steamer sinks into insignifcance,
or some other very deep water, by the
side Of well kept, well dressed woman.
There is no rubbing it out women are
the ornament, charm, blessing, beauty
and bliss of life-men's life, Of course.
Any means that can be devised for preser-
wing them should be publicly made known.
They are different from any other kind Of
fruit. You cannot pickle them you can
not do them up in sugar and set them in
a cold room, with paper soaked in BRAN
dy over their mouths. You cannot put
them up in cans and seal them up air
tight, without lnjuring their form and fla
yor.
Now, as men are so dependent upon
women for LIES choicest blessings, p
proper mode of preserving them becomes
of great moment, and we are sure that the
public will thank US for an infallble re-.
cept. Have the feet we'll protected :;
then pay the next attention to the chest
The chests the repository Of the vital Or
gans. There abide the heart and lungs.
Ii is from the impressions made upon
these organs through the skin, that the
shiver comes. Ii is natures quake-the
alarm bell at the onse! Of danger. A wo-
man never shivers from the effect of cold
upon hsr limbs, or hands, or head but
let the cold strike through her clothing on
her chest, and off 60 her teeth into chat
Ter, and the whole organism is in COM
motion. One sudden and severe impress
sion of cold upon the chest, has slain its
tens of thousands. Therefore, while the
ieet are we'll looked after, never forget
the chest. These points attended 10, the
natural connections of the dress will sup
ply the rest, and the woman is ready for
the air. Now let her visit her neighbors,
go shopping, call upon the poor, and walk
Tor the good of t-for the fun of it.
