THE MOSS ROSE SHE GAVE ME.

The moss rose that she gave me

When she was like singing bird,
And was like fool

Alas for me and her.,
Too late learned the language
or the little messenger
The moss rose that she gave me
| folded in my book,
And years from then saw 1t all!
The meaning and the look;
But nh ! the days had long gone by
When we were both Mt school,
When she was like u singing bird,
And was like fool.
The moss rose that she gave me
That INN book thrust,
The stem is white and broken
And the leaves are blnshing dust
About my temples can trace
The gathering threads OF snow,
And the singing bird. from sorrow
Flew to Heaven, years ago

BARON MUNcHAusEN.-M Brewster
(daughter of Sir David, in her Letters
from Came and Nice" says: "Baron
Munchausen is at Nice! My father met
him at a picnic the other day, and heard
from him the history ofhis celebrated name
sake. One of his executors had chap
lain who was famous for drawing long
bow" told in fact, the most false and
extravagant stories. His patron, the
Baron of those days, wrote book out
Heroding Herod, being a collection of
still more marvellous adventures, for the
purpose cf shaming the priest, for which
laudable design he was punished, by hav-
ing his own name held up to posterity as
tie story-teller par ercellence." This
shows that it is very dangerous to lie,
even in jest. The Munchausens are a
l1anoverian family.

E%The Elyria democrat relates the
following incident that occurred at the
late fire in that village:
When the fire was discovered in the
Hotel, it had made such progress that
many of the inmates had barely time to
escape, and one lad who was lodging in
the third story, attempted to leap from
the window, but his arm was caught by
the sash falling upon it, and he was thus
suspended upon the outside of the build
ing, with the flames curling around him,
until long ladder was procured. and he
was released by the "Hook & Ladder
Boys" from his perilous position. He
had no clothing on but his shirt, and would
have perished in few minutes more
He was poor orphan, arrived from Hi
nois the day before, and was seeking en-
ploymUnt. The Town Authorities fur
nished him with a suit of clothing and
found home for him where he will be
properly cared for. His name is Albert
Harley.

THIS remedy has won for itself such notoriety
from its cures Of every variety of pulmonary disease,
that it is entirely unnecessary to recount the ev
dences of its virtues in any community where II
has been employed So wide is the field of its use
ftilness, 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
rent to escape observation and where its virtues
known the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distressing and dangerous atiec-
tions of the pulmonary organs which are incident
to our climate. Not only in formidable attacks
upon the lungs, but for the milder varieties of
CoLDs, CoUoHs, II HoARsENEss, &C.; and for CHII-
DREN it is the pleasantest and safest medicine that
can be obtained
As it has long been in constant 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
