There is beautiful city, g~rfpx.
fsLaid out in walk and square;
Where flowers in rich profpsion ae.-
Perfume the summer air.
'Tis there the willow waveth,
And the violet lifts its head;
AMI they call this lovely city
The city of the dead!

The breeze, in gentle dalliance,
From flower to flower royess ,E.q.s
And the very air seems purer s.-s5
In those quiet shaded groves, a.
No sound disturbs the stiffness
No laughter, rude and loud
For there's something in that city,
Awes even the gayest crowd. s
And, side by side, there slumber e,s4
The rich man and the poor; t.a
There foes lie down together,
Nor wrong each other more.
There sleep the great, the iowly.
The same trees DER them wave;
For eartlr's proud and vain distinctions
Are leTeled by the grave. 8 a3a afii

Here, some weary aged warrior
Quietly takes his rest;
And near him some pale mother,
With her baby on her breast. - -
There, the wealthy merchant slurnBers
And dreams no more of gain !;
There the widowed one forgetteth
Life's wearinessand pain.
There, sleep inpeaee together
Betrayedsand betrayed, 2 5rt
The wronged lies down by the wronger,
And feels no more afraid; E
And, afar in some lone corner,
Slunnbers the suicide ie

How he lived and how he died! -

in my head, a very tedious pain in my back and

nervousness aad general debility; was SO bad
that was compelled to suspend business. After
a careful examination of my case, DR.. Young
pronounced the case durable, and commenced
taking the medicine he prescribed. and the result
is that amlnow perfectly well to all appearances,
although not so strong as could wish, yet l am
constantly gaining, and do us good days work
as anv of the men in my locality. The reason
for nnblishing the above is to counteract that
