An event of melancholy interest occurred in
this city few days ago, which affords sad rehec-
tons, and is no pleasing commentary on the hu-
manities of the age. The subject of our netice
is an individual, who some twenty wears ago.
graduated to profession in college. and who for
years afterwards moved in the ranks of respec-
tibih'y and usefulness whose society was
sought by the literary and refined, but who sub
sequentiy, like thousands ofthe race, became the
victim of his appetite. He came to this city
lew years ago, where unlike most men of oues
tionable habits, he led comparatively quiet and
unobtrusive life. While he INDUCED in his fa
vorite stimulants, Intoxicating drinks and opium
gradually wasting his life and physical ener-
glss, sense of the position of responsibility he
once occupied, seemed to restrain him from min
Cling to much extent in the society of the low
the vicious and the abandoned. A few weeks
ago his health became so far enfeebled as to pre-.
clude his engaging in any kind of hvchhood-his
means OF support were gone. But few knew
his necessities, for he proudly spurned the thot
OF being the object of charity: His case was
made known to the authorities, but he disGaiued
the idea of shelter and home in the society
Of paupers he chose rather to brave the terrible
realities of poverty, want and sickness, silently
and as far as possible in seclusion During ma
ny winter night within the past month, his bed
has been small quantity of straw, in wagon
under ad open she'd He had chill dren in other
States, grown up and occupying respectable pc.
sitions in sOcety-one a daughter, now the wife
of clergyman. But the remembrance of his
better days, would not allow him to overcome
his pride Of feeling, to let his children know his
destitution and wretchedness Last week he |
died on Wednesday. He was buried no fu-
neral services no bell tolled-no friends follow
ed his body to its last resting place. Barely !
enough help volunteered, TO lower his confined
rema ins in the silent grave. A pious drayman
only, spoke t, W christian words as his body
was committed 10 It's mother earth.-Such is the |
sad finale of one, who was once surrounded with
friends and afiuence-whose counsels were soft,
and whose society was counted.

Lecture on Tuesday Evening last.-The
lecture on Tuesday evening by Rev. G. T. Rior-
den was well attended. The Rev. Mr.. Riorden
has hardly superior. as an agreeable and attrac-
tive public speaker. He possesses an excellent
voice, and has happy manner of suiting the &C
ton to the sentiment. In these respects, he
furnishes mark ed contrast to the awkward, un
couth jesticuating lecturers, who sometimes Wis
it us from abroad The lecture abounded in ma
ny beautiful passages, indicating the literary re-
finement and taste Of the lecturer AS 10 some
of the sentiments advanced, there will Of course
be differences o fopinion. Men occupying the
same stand point of general truth, will reason to
different conclusions; the teachings of history are
differently interpreted by different minds, and
deduc tons widely apart are drawn from them
Such has always been the case, and so it is like
ly to continue for generations to come
Should Mr.. Riorden find it convenient lee
ture in this city again, we doubt not all, who
heard him on Tuesday evening last, would be
pleased to hear him again.

DR.. M'LANE'S
CELEBRATED
VERMIFUGE
a ND
LIVER PILLS

WE beg leave to call the atten-
ton of the Trade, and more
especially the Physicians Of the
country, to two of the most popu-
Ar remedies now before the public.
We refer to
Dr.. Chas. MTane's Celebrated
Vermliuge and Liver Pills.
We do not recommend them as
universal Cure-alls, but simply for
what thar name purports, viz:
THE VERMIFUGE,
For expelling Worms from the
human system. 1t has also been
administered with the most salts
factory results to various Animals
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS,
For the cure Of LIVER COMPLAINTS,
all BILIOUS DrRANGEMENTs, SICK
HEAD-AcHE, &c. In cases of
FEVER AND AGUE,
preparatory to or after taking Oui-
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
AS specifics for the above men
toned diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and never known to fail when adj
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors,
FLEMING BROTHERS,
PITTSBURGH, Pa.
to dispose of their Drug business,
in which they have been success
fully engaged for the last Twenty
Years, and they will now give their
| undivided time and attention to
their manufacture. And being de-
termined that DIR. M'Lane's Cele-
brated VernMfuge and Liver Pills
shall continue to occupy the high
position they now hold among the
great remedies of the day, they
will continue to spare neither time
nor expense in procuring the Best
and Purest material, and COM
pound them in the most thorough
manner. Address all orders to
FLEMING BROS. Pittsburgh, Pa.
P.S. Dealers and Physicians ordering from others
than Fleming Eros, will do well write their orders
distinctly and take bat Dr. BrLaae's 1rgaycd Ju
Fleming Bros. Pittsburgh Pa To those wishing to give
them trial, we will forward per nail post paid TO any
part of the United States box of pills for twelve
threecen postage stamps vial of Vermifuge for
fourteen theecent stamps All orders from Canada must
| be accompanied by twenty cents extra.

RhMhRrh Wine.

We were presented day or two since with a
couple of bottles of Rhubarb Wine, by Mr. Gil,
sun Lewis of this city. We have distinct rec.
election of tasting the said wine, and then Of
placing it in a safe place, until "more conven.
lent season" should be afforded us for thoroughly
testing it. But alas like religion deferred, a
better opportunity never came; the wine was
secretly spirited off, aud the depredators walk
in open day, unknown and UNPUBLISHED. Our
conclusion that the wine good, is dcduced
therefore, more or less logically from the follow
ing syllogism, rather than from actual expert
ence
(A)-Any thing must possess real value to be
stolen
(B)-The wine was stolen
