BILLINGS HAMS!

I DESIRE TO CALL PARTICULAR ATTEN-
i ton of consumers in California to the label or
brand upon my Hams, which in all cases bears
" fac simile' of my signature, and is in every re-
spect the same label have used for many years
past.
The unrivalled reputation my Hams have long
borne in the California market, renders me eX-
ceedingly anxious that no Hams packed hy other
persons should be mistaken for the well known
and genuine
Horace Billings Hams,
And my present object is to ask consumers, espc-
cially to distinguish my Hams from certain other
Hams, which learn have this season been sent
to California, on which the name of
B | l. l. | n G. :
has been placed, with label resembling mine in
style, type, &c.
My Hams are cured under my own personal SUI
pervison, and their admitted excellence is owing
to the great care used, and the peculiar prcpara-
tion they undergo in curing, by which delcacy of
flavor, preservation Of the juice of the meat, and
freedom from undue saltneSs are secured.
confidently assure purchasers of my Hams in
California, that the cure of 1859 will be found of
the choicest quality and flavor, and fully equal in
all respects to any heretofore packed by me for
that market. HORACE BILLINGS,
Patentee. Bcardstown, Illinois.

THE PALM AND THE PINE.
BY BAYARD TAYLOR.

When Petor led the first crusade
A Norsoman woOed an Arab maid.
lie loved her 1.-THE and palmy grace,
And the dark beauty Of her face;
She loved his checks, so rudely fair,
His sunny eyes and yellow hair.
lie called-she left her fathers tent;
She 70 llowed whorosoe'er he went.
She left the palms Of Palestine
To sit beneath the Norland rine.
She sang tho musky Orient strains
Where Winter swept the snowy plains.
Their natures met like night and morn
What time the morning star is born.
The child that from tLoir meeting grow,
Hung, like that star, between the two.
Tho glossy night his mother shed
From her long hair was on his hond
But in its shade they saw arise
The morning Of his fathers eyes.
Beneath the Orient's tawny stain
Wandered the Norseman's crimson vein;
Beneath the Northern force was seen
The Arab sense alert and keen.
His we're the Vikings sonowy hands,
The arching foot Of Eastern lands.
And in his soul conflict gstrovo
Northern Indifference, Southern love;
The chastity Of temperate blood,
Impetuous PASSIONS fiery flood;
The settled faith til at nothing shakes,
The jealousy breath awakes;
The planning Reasons sober gaze
And Fapcy's moteoric blaze.
And trongor, as he grew to man,
The contraiicting natures ran
AS mingled streams from Etna flow,
One born Of fire, and one of snow.
And one impelled and one Withheld,
And ono obeyOd, and one reboIed,
One gave him force, the other fire;
This self control, and that desire.
Ono filed his heart with fierce unrest;
With peace serene and other blessed.
He knew the depth and knew the hight,
The bounds of darkness and Of light;
And who these far extremes has seen,
Must needs know all that lies between.
So, with untaught, instructive art,
He read the myriad heart.
lie met the man ofmany land;
They gave their souls into his hand.
And none of them was long unknown;
The hardest lesson was his own;
But how he lived, and where and when,
1t matters not to other men:
For, as fountain disappears,
To gush again in later years,
So nature.lost again may rise
After the lapse of centuries
May track the hidden course of blood
Through many generation food,
Till, on some unsuspcctcd field,
The latent lineage is revealed.
The hearts that met in Palestine,
And mingling meath the Norland pine,
Still beat with double pulse in mine.
