DIR. Roback's Greeting to the Universe
Nation


DR.. Roback's Greeting to the Universal
Nation.
Hail glorious day. beneath whose azure sky,
giant nation from the womb of Time,
First sprung to life, and Liberty on high,
TO an admirng world by right divine
Claimed the newborn as hers while tyranny
Cowed beneath that suns respendent rays
Which blazed propitious land SO free
AS men and angels mingled hymns Of praise.
All hail, Columbia; DER the rolling wave
Thy stars and stripes in many fearful fight
Have aoated proudly, while thy sons so brave,
With dauntess hearts and stern, resistess might
Nobly have battled for thy rights and fame,
Winning from despots of the olden world
Fear and respect long may thy name
Beam with bright hope, thy flag be aye unfurled.
But not in sanguinary wars red path,
No, rather In the cause of peace and joy
Not groaus of anguish, but the merry laugh
Should welcome to our land the blueeyed boy,
The God of Love- and Cornucopa's horn
BE emptied on thy hills and wales free,
Thus may thy children greet the natal morn,
OF fair Columbia and of Liberty.
Ruddy.cheeked health, with blessed joyous train
or happy fances still shall bless the land
From Roback's Swedish herbs flies direful pain
Dyspepsias baflled, and the trembling hand
or the poor nervous wretch no longer shakes;
From his famed Scandinavian remedies
Fever and ague quail, while health awakes,
And dire disease, with oil its horrors flies.
Corrupted blood pure as the limped stream,
Soon meath their magic influence courses free;
The dull Dyspeptc's eye with healthful gleam
Sparkles, and rings the laugh in jollity,
Neuralgia. too. in oil its horrid guise,
Is cured $ certain as that day succeeds
To darisome night; and thus surely flee
All lung complaints before his remedy.
Yet one more agent in the glorious strife
Of battling death, is called up at his will
Another and Joyous lease of lite
Is brought by his Blood purifier and Pill
To all who have acquired the horrid taint,
Acute or chronic, as it chance to be
OF diseased liver. Quickly the complaint
Shall fly, and feave that organ whole and free.
Thus having to my patrons now proclaimed
The health.inspring virtues which possess
Those medicines throughout the land, SO famed
As having thousands upon thousands blessed,
bid you all adieu; and may this day
BE ever cherished by the free and brave.
And Freedoms sun, with brig ght and genial ray,
Still gd the stars which o'er us proudly

tween one and half and one and three
quarter acres, xiih Sorghum. He has now
made the syrup thereirom. and finds the

Theyied o, syrop was 44o gallons. This
he expects to sell at 80 cents gallon,

II costs him some niue cents a gallon to
TO have il refined and clarified, so that the
net proceeds will be $3.50. Counting la
bor, etc :, on the cane, he will receive net
over 500 an acre. He says that with the
mill and boilersiwhich he uses and which
cost him abDut (S3oo) two men, three boys
and pair of horses, can make in one day
two barrels of molasses or syrup, and that

The Colonel's mill and boilers are now

We have another specimen of Indian

Mr.. Putnan,s Baldwin apple trees. Mr.
Putnam makes the following statement:
From thirteen apple trees, | had this
ser son seveniy-two barrels Of Baldwin ap-
pies. From the sale of sixty-fuur barrels
OF these, have realized $3.50. In this
reckoning | include three barrels which |
broush, to this CITY, and have not yet sold.
They have been sold by the barrel at prices
varying fron s. 90 for the "wind falls" to
$500 for the faest selected.
These trees are about twelve years old.
They came from Princes Nursery, Long
Island. For several years after they were
plspted, they were neglected; but for nine
years past they have been wei! cared for.
From Is49 to 1854 the ground was con-
stan.ly plowed and cropped. 1t was then
put into blue grass, and is now grazed by
sheep. From nine 10 te n Ieet diameter Tor

Pioneer Courtships.

One subject alwss interesting to pion-

Pioneer courtships! He could speak from
experience OF the happy times when boys
and girls used to ''set uP' together, when
cuurting was done Sunday nights, and
sparkling was enjoyed in the only iaaiiy
room OF the log cabin, blankets the only
partitions, and the curtains around the bed
of the cd folks. About s. the children
would climb the ladder 10 their hunks, close
father and mother would also retire behind
the blankets, leaving the sparkers sitting
at opposite corners of d capacious stick
chimney fireplace. Soon the fire would
need little ixing with the wooden shovel
or poker, and in resuming seats, somehow
chairs would manifest unusual attraction
for closer contiguity. II chilly, must sit
close together 10 keep warm; if dark, TO

whispered Mr.. T. was mum, bot when the
6rst hearty smack broke the cabin stiffness,
the gentle breathing behind the blankets
was often interrupted by a slight hacking
cough. .-.-
When strapping boy, he fell head over
ears in love with girl of the real Ply
mouth rock stamp. She lived twenty miles
away, and he went to see her regularly
every fourth Sunday night. He won the
lass. longed to marry her, but as the course
of true love never run smooth, her
mother objected. He however kept on
courting until he got to love everything
IN the old mans :arm. At last love and
perseverance, were rewarded, and the We'd
ding day was fixed. The new country was
sickly, and he often found himself feeling
his pulse as the day of days drew near, in a
tremor lest the shakes should be BGded to
the fever consuming him. Got married
without accident, moved to his log cabin,
went to housekeeping. Election soon came
on, wen; to the polls, was asked if he was
of age. and didn't vote. Ms. It. was lisa
annoyed about il, and when election next
came round, that very morning she presen-
