zyitteu o.. ths death Of Ma Sarah K RobiSso'l'
Thy heart where life didst lately beat
Deaths dsrkling shade has filed;
Thy voice, which we once loved TO greet
Is now forever stilled.
The grave has settled on thy brow
It's chilling, whitening gloom
Where once was light is darkness now, f
Unbroken in the tomb
On thee life's dawn had scarce begun
To paint its coming ray, ahf
Era tbou on earth thy race hadst run, t
And fed from time away. 49,
The light of hope shone fair and bright,
AlhwArt thy future sky;
We little thought that in deaths night
'Twould pale SO soon, and die.
How short the time since health's bright hue
Gave TO thy checks bloomj
But hope, whose buds then sweety grew,
Has blossomed in the tomb.
As fades the mist of early morn
Before the suns bright ray,
So passed thy spirit gently. borne
On angel wings away.
Thou vert a fair and gentle flower,
Exotic to earth's cline;
Transplanted now to heavens bower,
BY Gods own hand divine.
The seeds Of death were early sown,
And blossomed in youths ground,
death loves shining mark" tits known,
And one in thee ID found
Thou vert so youthful and so fair,
II might have spared thee yet;
But unavailing is each tear,
And ev'ry fond regret
For thy loved form no more we'll see,
Howe'er the boon we crave;
Deaths mantling gloom is over thee, -
And thou art in the grave.
But though thy form awaits meath the sod
The tr,mpetS waking sound,
Thy happy soul has fed to God,
Where endless life is found.
Then sitting each up-heaving sigh
Thou hast but gone before
Well strive to meet beyond the sky,
To part with thee no more.

and, showing him two-pence, inform him that in

feels this severely. He would, were he malicious,

tire to his pantry and repent, which is better But

their children who seem to take delight in ha-
RAISING, badgering, objurating the waiter; setting
pitfalls in the reckoning that he may stumble, and
giving him confused orders, that he may trip him

cabmen, and menace them with ruin and the tread

the humor Of the thing, drove me cheerily to the

The Boston Ledger is publishing series of able
articles on the causes that have led to the present
demoraized state of the country and in the course
of one Of them the following plain facts are stated
"Some dozen years ago, the Legislature of New
York passed registry law for the city OF New
York, with the hope and intent of furnishing a
check to such interferences and to frauds in cleo
TONS The next year the next Legislature of that
State repealed the bill, and William II. Seward APP
proved the repeating act. Now how much better
was Mr. Seward in permitting such outrages in New
York than the Mssourans who commit them in
Kansas Last year the New York Legislature
passed another registry law to prevent frauds and
illegal voting. and Myron H. Clark, the Hepub-
lican Governor, and tool Of Seward, vetoed it.
How much better is the Republican Clark than
the Border Rufian Atchison? This year another
bill for registry law was reported in the New
York Legislature, but the Republicans aided the
Democrats to kill it. How much better were these
New York Republicans than your Missouri Border
Ruffans? Verify not one whit. Indeed, the half
civilized lawless borderers, who commit the wrong
are far more excusable than the polished and edu-
Gated New Workers, who refuse to prevent 1t when
they can. A corrupt tree brngeth forth corrupt
fruit"

DEAR SIR: Allow me to express to you my sincere
thanks for your discovery of medicine which, to say
the least of it. has effected that all other med
icines that have taken have entirely failed TO do.
Hollands German Btters have cured me of the most
stubborn and aggravated of the Piles that per-
haps ever fell to the lot of man. My case is not a
stranger in this community, as | am well known in
this and the surrounding Counties and can truly say
that my recovery has astounded all my friends and
relations as had tried everything recommended,
and nothing did me any good until was prevailed
upon TO try the Bitters. You at liberty 70 make
any use Of this communication, for the Der eft of the
afflicted, you may think'proper.
Truly, yours, VIM J. ATWOoD.

PINE HILL, March A, 1854.
DEAR SIR: have been subject of Dyspepsia in
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw me said must die. While in this con-
dition was carried to the watering places in Vir-
ginia Tennessee and North Carolina, but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken. While
on my way home, stopped o week at Rutherfordton,
small village in North Carolina, to try the effect of
some Chaybeate water in that place About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
icine for my child and myself There were several
of the village physicians in the store and one OF them
seemed to take some interest in my case, and after
asking me some questions, said he had been dys-
peptic, and had been greatly benefited by the use
"Hoofand's German Btters, prepared by you, and
he insisted that would try the Bitters. He also
called the next day at my room, and insisted so much
that would try them that asked him to get me
one bottle He did it. and commenced taking it as
directed and was benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home, one OF my neIghbors came to
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspeptic)
and gave him nearly all the Btters had left which
effected much good in his ease He has often called
on me for more Of the e.e kind of medicine, saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken but have not been able to get any more for
him or myself since. Will you therefore, please ship
me dozen or more as soon as possible.
Respectfully, yours, w. SMITH. &

From the Ohio Statesman.

One word TO the Democracy OF the North.
We desire one word with the Democracy Of
the Northern States, and that one word as
briefly told as possible. II should sink deep
into the heart of every one, and each can elab.
crate II at his leisure, the c,isis-,he hour
has come when we have got to answer it, and
with our votes and our might We shall 90
back no further than the recollections of all
living men, though past history is full Of similar
facts.
1t is but q few years since the Democracy OF
the North found themselves in n perious con-
flict with that moneyed monster Of corruption,
the United States Bank. 1t was real open
and pitched battle between the laboring men
of the North and moneyed oligarcby In
that terrible fight where did we look for aid
and comfort but to the Southern States And
we looked not in vain. They came with men
and talent, with energy and will that knew
no faltering, and the Old Hero Of hundred
battles triumpbed, and the monster fell to rise
no more The bands forged for the laborinp
men Of the North we're burst asunder, and We
breathed the breath Of freedom and lived.
| In the scarcely-less terrific BATTLE that fol
lowed, between the high-tarif and no-foreign
trade men, and the freetrade and free-labol
men OF the North, for the high-tarif scheme
was but another stroke at the laboring men and
women of the North, where again did we lool
for help in this eventful moment, when tn,
whole character of wealth toward labor an,
labor toward wealth might have been change,
for ages2 To the statesmen of the South
and we looked not in vain
!. We might go on multiplying case after cas-
