HOW LONG SHALL LIVE.

You Will live forever.
There are no dead. The blow which struck
asunder body and spirit did not end the spirit S
life. And so the countless myriads of the past,
whose dust has long since mingled with the
soil, still live" The men, women and children
of Noah's day, and Abraham's and David s; the
motley tribes that herded beneath the crescent
of the Arabian prophet; the swarms of Goth and
Hun, Tartar and Vandal, that swept the plains
of the Eastern World; the red men that roamed
the forests of the Western World, and left in
mounds and tree-g grown ruins the dim history OF
their earthly existence-all these are yet alive.
They cannot die Immortality is their birth
right and inheritance. With the first breath Ol
| life they inhaled immortality.
No. On the highway of heaven none fall
| In the hollows of hell none rise. You have fix
ed your state forever when you leave this world.
The case is closed You have either united
Yourself to Christ within an eternal love, which
no possibility can sunder, or have entOmbed
your soul in sorrow which no possibility can
| lift off All changes must be made this side OF
the grave; there is no change beyond. The
preparation must be finished here; for there
there is no time. Time is ended, and you are
in eternity The decree is unalterable: @He
who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is
holy, let him be holy still"
| How long will you live? you will live forev-
er; and your life there will depend on your life
here. Every day as you complete it, will reap
pear in years to come. Every hour, every mo-
ment as it hurries on its way, leaves page to
read before the throne. Every word, every act
every thought and feeling of your heart, records
itself imperishably in the memory of One who
never forgets. You are writing your life fol
eternity.

others in albums at Mrs. SURRAFr's house, and

From the New York Evening Post.
Bless God for the Blessed Rain.

BY GEORGE W. BUNGAY.
"Bless God for rainir the good man said,
And brushed away grateful tear,
That we may have our daily bread,
He drops shower upon us here
Our Father, high enthroned in Heaven,
We thank Thee for the pearly shower,
The blessed rain-gift Thou hast given
To- man, and beast, and bird and flower.
The dusty earth, with lips apart,
Looked up where rolled an orb of flame,
As though prayer came from its heart
For water clouds and rain that came.
The Indian corn with silken plume,
And flowers with tiny pitchers filed,
Send up their praise of sweet perfume
For precious drops the clouds distilled.
The modest grass is fresh and green,
The brooklet swells its song again,
An angels welcome wing is seen
In every cloud that brings us rain;
There is a rainbow in the sky,
Upon the arch where tempests trod;
God wrote it with his hand on high
1t is the autograph of God.
Up where the heavy thunders rolled,
And clouds of flame were swept along,
The sun rides in car of gold,
And soaring larks are lost in song;
The rills that pulse from mountains rude,
Flow, throbbing, to the verdant base;
While flow the tears of gratitude
In streams down many jOylit face.
Great King of Peace, deign now 10 bless
The windows of the sky unbar !
Shower down the rain of righteousness,
And wash from us the stain of war;
And let the radiant bow of love
In beauty mark the moral sky,
Like that fair sign unrolled above
A promise writ in light on high.

WISHART'S PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL.
GREAT REMEDY FOR CONSUMPTION

READING, Pa, April I9, liza.
DR. WIsHART-Dear Sir: One year ago Ia
Examining Surgeon of this district told me
bad Consumption of the Lungs and that could
not be cured; and Judging from all my symptoms
at that time, myself supposed this to be true
was for more than one year troubled with a
hacking cough, which gradually grew so bad
that | could not have a severe fit of coughing
without splitting up blood in large quantities.
For months could not work at anything,
and was obliged to keep my bed most of the
time While in this condition l was in Mr.
Rowbotham's store, in this city, and he seeing
how low j was, recommended me to try your
Pine Tree Tar Cordial. He said he had sold
great deal of it. and that, as it had cured SO many
others, he believed it would do some good. 1
bought bottle and commenced using it. In a
very short time | saw that / was getting better
very fast, and after taking several bottles l was
entirely restored to health, so that could work
every day at my business, which is very heavy
work, in an iron foundry. When | commenced
to use your Pine Tree Tar Cordial, my weight
was only one hundred and thirty five pounds;
since the use of it have weighed on an average
one hundred and fifty five. l shall be glad to
have you publish this, as | believe should not
have been living at this time if had not used
your great medicine and wish all who suffer
to receive its benefit.
Very truly yours,

ASTHMA AND COUGH CURED.

Tue Pine Tree Tar Cordial gives instanta-
r,ons reIief in cases of Asthma and Whooping
Couch 1t often cures whoeping before it runs
half its cou rse, as it acts at once the phlegm
and mucus and expeis them from the throat
ard the sufferer is relieved. In case of Asthma,
nse DR. Wisbart's Dyspepsia Pills with the Cor
dial as they have never been known to iall to
cure that disease.
DIR. wISHART'S PINE TREE TAR
CORDIAL will positively cure the following
diseases: Consumption, if not beyond the pow
er of medicine; inflammation of the Lungs
Coughs, Sore Throat and Breast Bronchitis,
Asthma, and an unfailing remedy for female
complaints.
The above are few among the thousands
whom this great remedy has saved from an un-
timely grave.
We have thousands of letters from Physicians
and Druggists who have prescribed and sold the
Tar Cordial, saying that they have never used
or sold medicine which gave such universal
satisfaction.
REMEMBER THAT
The Tar Cordial, when taken in connection with
DIR. Wishart's Dyspepsia Pills. is an infsllable
cure for Dyspepsia.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS!
The genuine has the name of the proprietor

On the 25th of November, 1861, Judah P.
Rep;amip. then jefferson Davis Secretary of
W.T wrote an official letter, manifestly with the
sanction and approval of Jefferson Davis, order
inc that certain loyal men of East Tennessee
sbonId be atried summarily by drum head court
martial, and if found guilty, executed on the
spot a by banging. 1t would be well to leave
their bodies hanging in the vicinity of the burnt
bridges Judge Patterson, (son-iu-law of An
drew Johnson,) Col Piekens and other ring
leaders of the same class must be sent at once
TO Tuscaloosa to jail, as prisoners of war. -
Judge Patterson is now United States Senator
elect from East Tennessee, and Jefferson Davis
is in position here he can appreciate the beau
ties of "drum head court martial, should such
thing fall within bis experience.

Ironing of JEFF. Davis and How it was Done.

From the Washington Republican
Why and how jeff Davis was manacled. or
whether manacled at all, has been enveloped IN
some uncertainty. 1t is true that irons was
placed on his feet, but they were subsequently
removed, when they bad answered their pur-
pose. Not only was he imperious and naughty.

countermanded. The captain said eYou are

The Pluck Of the Georgia Union League.

The Savannah Republican saystor some eight
or ten months past an organization has been IN
existence in Southwest Georgia, styled "UnlOB
League" and have been heretofore compelled to
hold their meetings secretly in order to evade
the military in that section. Some SIX weeks
apo one of the members turned traitor and gave
notice Of contemplated meeting and the place
where it was to convene, when body Of some
forty or fifty cavalry and abattalion of infantry
started for the place of redezvOus to capture the
assemblage. The League, however, having the
approaches watched, got the alarm of the advent
of the cavalry coming down upon them, awaited
with double barreled guns, and when near
enough poured volley into them which emp
tied nearly every saddle. The result was, the
infantry, which was slow in coming up. foundit
necessary to be quick on the Tetrogsde. The
League comprised some seven or eight hundred
men, well armed. and belong TO the counties OF
Emanuel, Tatnall, Liberty, ApplIBg wayne,
Pierce, Coffee CliDch. Erwin, Ware Charlton,
Telfair and Montgomery.

THE HOPE OF MAN.

Final success-the joy of life's ripe harvest
is the goal of our hopes. No wise or thought
full man will live merely for to-day. The pill
grim who seeks a home is not content to linger
and loiter for the mere flowers beside his way.
The sower looks onward to field white and ready
for the sickle. Wisdom has regards to the grand
issue. The triumph OF the pleasure of to-day
is transitory. We want hope that does not
sink with the setting sun. The true success OF
life is that which does not fail in the evening
of our davs, and leave them to blight or barren
ness. We want that shout @of harvest home,
that will not die into silence with the failing
breath, but makes the passage of the grave a
whispering gallery where heaven and earth talk
together.-E II. Gilef, ID. ID.
