O JED MISSED 1T.

Some folks are in the habit of talking
in their sleep, and Miss Betsey Wilson was
of the number. This popularity she acct
dentally revealed to Jedediah jenkins, in
a careless, conversational way. Jedediah
had just finished the recital of a matri-
monial dream, in which the young lady and
himself figured as hero and heroine, he
having invented the same for the sake Of
saying at the conclusion, it was 'too good tc
be true,' and by thus speaking parallels, as
suring the damsel of what he dared not
speak plainly.
Il never Dream said Betsey, 'but some
times talk half the night, and tell everything
I know in my Sleep
you don't say So
Yes; | never can have a secret from mo

pumps me after I've gone to bed, and
answer her questions as honestly as if my
life depended on it. That's the reason
wouldn't 60 to ride the other night. knew
she would find it out. 1t is awful pro
vokingp
Some days after this, Jed called at the
house, and entering the parlor unsnnouu
ced, found Miss Betsey, probably overcome
by the heat of the weather, had fallen a
sleep on the sofa.
Now Jed, as the reader has surmised, had
long felt an overwhelming Partially for the
young lady, and yearned to know if it was
returned ; but though possessed Of sufficient
courage to mount 'the imminent deadly
BREACH or breeches ~(connubial ones, We
meau), he could never muster spunk e,
nough to inquire into the state of her heart.
But he now bethought himself of her con-
fessed s%omnambulic loquacity, and felt that
the time to ascertain his fate had come
Approaching the sofa, he whispered:

OUR SAVIOUR'S ADVENT.
have seen his star In the east."-THE MAeL.
Dark was the dreary night of sin
Which DER Judea hung;
Upon the altar pale and dim,
The Offering fingered long,
While not a spark from heaven appeared
To start the sacred flame;
Where God vas once devoutly feared,
They feared him but in name.
Before cold, Pharaisaic pride,
The life of Israel's worship died.
The essence, with gloomy face,
In caverns sought his God
The Sadducee, with polished psce,
In halls of pleasure trod:
At festal boards he gayly bowed,
And sumptuous feasts be gave;
But hung a cold and cheerless shroud
0'er all beyond the grave.
Some pious Jews, with faltering pace,
Still sought the Sacred Hill;
But in Judea's holy place
The oracle was still.
In vain they looked, with wishful eyes;
Devotion's flame grew cold
There burned not there the sacrifice,
As it had burned Of old.
'sWhat of the night? ?" the Waterman cried,
With loud and earnest voice:
"The morning comes" a voice replied,
"Behold it, and rejoice |"
Then Ger Judea rose the light
Of Bethlehem's bright star;
Shepherds beheld it in the night,
And wise men from afar.
Behold, Fe comes! the promised King,
While len rejoice and angels sing!

The important fact that the awful consequen

without internal medicines or the dangerous ap.

~bougies, and other empirical devices, is here
clearly demonstrated, and the entirely new and
highly successful treatment, as adopted by the
celebrated author fully explained, by means of
which every one is enabled to cure himself per-
fectly, and at the least possible cost, thereby
avoiding all the advertised nostrums of the day.

ANECDOTE OF THE LATE COL.
PRESTON.

Many of our readers remember the state.
ly presence, the dignifed bearing and i'm
posing manner of Colonel Willim G. Pres
ton, of South Carolina. 1t was when all
these qualities were in their prime, and
Preston represented his State in the Sen.
ate of the United States, that business or
pleasure called him to the West, and to
take passage down the Mississippi river
In those Flush times the steamers swarm
ed with boosters, greenhorns, and gamblers,
the latter politely designated sporting gen.
tlemen,' the term gambler or 'blackleg' en-
failing on the speakers pistol shot or a
wipe from the Bowie-knife.
The boat was on the eve of departure,
and our Senator, standing on deck and
holding a small mahogany box, was observ-
ing with great interest and pleasure, the
busy scene on the wharf, when an individ.
al, luxuriating in a rather ornate style Of
dress, approached him, and in subdued
> tones demanded:
i say, old Teller, when are you going to
commence"
Commence what, sir?' asked the as.
tonished Senator.
'Pshaw none of that CANNON with me !
The fact is, a few of US boys on board want
a little fun, and we won't pile it on too
strong for you ; SO come and open at once
Really, SIR replied Preston, 4 am to-
tally at a loss to guess your meaning; open
what?'
sOpen what !! Why, the bank, of course.
May be you think our pile isn't large e.
nough to make it an object. But we're not
so poor as all that, anyhow!
The Senator meditated ~gloomily, but all
was dark to him: he was plunged 10 a sea
of doubt, and he had never met any prob
lem, not even a political one, so hard to
solve.
6sPerhaps,' broke in his pertinacious friend
again, after a considerable pause, 'perhaps
you will say directly that you are not a sport
ing man.
Il certainly am nothing of the kind, SIR
rejoined Preston, rather angrily; 'aud l
can't imagine what put the idea in your
head
sNot a sporting man! Whew-w. l new
er. heard of such a piece of impudeuce =
Well, if you're not a sporting man, will
you please to tell me why you carry the
tools about with you ? and he pointed to
the mahogany box which he still carried.
A light broke on Prestou's mind
The mahogany box p he cried. sAh
ha ha ha very natural mistake, indeed,
my good sir, very natural indeed my good
sir very natural, indeed! Well, 1 will
show you the contents And laughing
heartily, he opened the box in question,
which was in fact, his dressing-case, and
displayed the usual parade ofbrushes, combs,
razors, soap, etc., which usually fill that
article of travelling comfort.
Our friend looked at the case, then at
Preston again. Then he heaved a long
sigh, and then he pondered.
Well he broke out at length, Il did
take you to be a sporting ~gentleman-I did;
but now | see you are a barber; but if I'd
known it, hang me if had a spoke to you!
And so saying, he 'vamoosed.'
Fancy the feelings of our honorable Sen.
ator, as he assumed these various charac.
tiers in the eyes of an anxious stranger.

The fair sleeper gave a faint sigh, and re-
sponded, i love-let me think-(here you
mighthave heard the beating of Jed's heart
through a brick wall)-I love heaven, my
country, and baked beans. But if | have
one passion above all others, it is for roast
onions!
The indignant lover didn't wake her,
but sloped at once, a sadder but not a wi
ser man.
