And dear 10 ne m0gruful gloon,
Of Gu.uDa, 'Sabbs'h Of the year =
But purer pleasures, joy sublime,

flushed is the tumult OF the day,
And worldly cares and business cease
While soft The vesper breezes play

FITS! WHY PROMINENT.

For a long time there was a paragraph
making its regular weekly appearance in
our columns, with the brief, but emphatic
words Fits! Fits! " always at the head, to
some an offensive caption, but not so to the
benevolent and humane, who do not sympa-
thize in the sorrows of others. Some per-
sons are shocked al the indication of dis
ease, and are even thrown into nervous ex-
citement on witnessing a heerse or a coffin .
Such are to be pitied. We should always
strive to look disease and even death in the
face with calmness, and especially take ev-
cry opportunity fol alleviating disease,
Viewed in this light, the advertisement OF
S S. Hance, of lOS Baltimore-street Bal,
timore, Md, possess a certain interest, and
those who know of any one suffering from
Epilepsy, Spasms, or fits of any kind, should
feel it a pleasure to cut out his advertise
ment, or in some other way send word &c
the afflicted Of the great value of his RENE
dies. They can be sent to any part Of the
country by mail. Price, SO per box. Two

a Cincinnati R.iIrond.

1t will be seen by the time table in
to,day's paper that this road is now
opened to Marietta, to which point
passenger trains commenced running
on Monday last. Through Express
Passenger and Freight Trains to the
Eastern cities will commence on the
4th of May.
We sincerely congratulate every
body upon the completion of this great
work. Its Directors have had many
obstacles of q seemingly almost in
surmountable nature to overcome, and
howmuchsoever we may differ with
them in the course they have in some
instances thought proper to pursue,
we must confess that they have man
aged the work with a tact and ability
almost unequalled. Their main OBJ.
iect being the success of the project,
they have not always been particular
as to the means employed to attain
that end. This must aver be the case
with bodies corporate. Without souls
to save and with the tremendous in
auence which they "a bring to bear
for the accomplishment Of their pur-
poses, they pursue a course, some
times, which in individuals would be
considered anything else buta fair and
an honorable one. The Marietta and
Cincinnati Company have been nc
worse than others would have been,
perhaps, il placed under the same pc
culiar circumstances, and fits Direc'
tory have at any time committed acts
not exactly in accordance with oul
ideas of justice, we feel much like
forgiving them for the ability they
have manifested in conducting the
work to a successful consummation.
The present time table is a good one,
! The road is no longer used for the es'
|, pecial benefit and behoof of Chilli
cothe. The interests of the travelling
, community have been consulted
trains now run through without un'
necessary stoppage, and make close
, connection with the S. & Fl. v. Rail
road. We do not understand why the
Superintendent has omitted AoAr'
= thur Station. Of course, be does moi
intend to discemmode the people o
| this vicinity by not stopping at sale
station. We trust the omission hal
been accidental.
