A HYMN,

In Reference to Death and Judgment.
come, come with me to the old Church yard,
l well know the path through the soft green sward;
Friends slumber there whom wish to regard
Well trace out their in the old Church yard.
Oh mourn not for them, their grief is DER;
Weep not for them, they weep no more.
For deep is their seep-though cold and hard
Their pillows may be-in the old Church yard.
] know it seems vain when friends depart,
To breathe kind words to the broken heart; g
know the joys of life seem marred, \ va
When follow friends to the old Church yard.
But were at rest beneath yon tree,
Why should you wssp,- dsAx friends, for me
I'm wayworn and sad, oh why then retArd
The rest seek N the OLD Charch yard. - XXX
Our friends lingsr thers in the sweetest rspose, -
Released from the worlds sad beresvements aud
And who would not rest with the friends they regard
In qiIetude sweet, in the old Church yard.
Well rest in the hope Of that bright day,
When beauties shall spring from the prison Of clay;
When Gabrisls voice and the trump Of the Lord,
Shall awaken the dead in the ole Church yard.
Oh weep not for me, I am anxious to go
To that haven of rest where tears flow
fear not to enter that dark, lonely ward,
For soon shall rise from the old Church yard.
OF glorifed souls at my Savior's right hand,
Forever TO dwell in bright mansions prepared
For the saints that shall rise from the old Church yard

ey of the bill must be to res scitate the
spirit of rebellion. and to arrest the pro-
gress of those influences which are more
closely drawing around the States the

Ny lamented predecessor, in his proc
lamation Of the lst of January, 1868,
ordered and declared that all persons
held as slaves within certain States and
parts of States therein designated, were.
and thenceforward should be, free; and
further. that the Executive Government
of the United States. including the mil
itary and naval authorities thereof, would
recognize and maintain the freedom of
such persons. This guaranty has been
rendered especially obligatory and sa-
cred by the amendment Of the Coustitu-
tion abolishing Slavery throughout the
United States 1. therefore, fully recog
nize the obligation to protect and defend
that class of our people whenever and
wherever it shall become necessary, and
to the full extent, Compatible with the
Constitution of the United States. En-
tertaining these sentiments, it only re
mains for me to say that will cheerful
ly co operate with Congress in any mea-
sure that may be necessary for the pres
ervation of the civil rights of the freed
men, as well as those OF all other classes
of persons throughout the United States,
by judicial process under equal and inn
partial laws, or conformsbly with the
provisions Of the Federal Constitution.
1 now return the bill to the Senate,
and regret that in considering the bills

which have been thus far submitted for
my approval, 1 am compelled to with
hold my assent from second measure
that has received the sanction Of both
Houses of Con yress.

1t is not oftengthat we feel inclined
to draw attention to the theories and
practice of medical men, but when,
day after day, we see in this journal
and other leading dailies of this city

Consumption, written in a plain, clear,
concise manner free from the tech
nicalities of the profession), explain

second place, what praise is due to
this liberal-minded man, who throws
off the. shackles which bind him to
his medical brethren, and spurning
the ridicule and antagoaism of the
fraternity, dares to openly advocate
system of treatment which, after years
ofssuccessful practice. has proved to
the world othe blessings that result
from thoroughly explaining the mo-
das operdadi of remedies in manner
Ineligible tolthe pnhlie at large. In
a word, Dr. HUNTER, who has so long
distinguished himself as the advocate
of the Inhalation system in this coun-
try, holds that this mode of treatment
is the only one (which lung diseases
can be cured; and'we therefore (know-
ing this gentleman personality have
mo hesitation in drawing attention to
his series of articles upon CATARRH,
CONSUMPTION, &C.; and in conclusion
we would add that, in so doing, we
feel sure we are only paying a just
compliment to mani who, freeing
himselfifrom the trammels Of a false

ping aloof from empiricism, has openly
dared to publish what atfmight be called

Pain-Killer in gill of hot water sweet
ened with sugar; then, after about fifteen
minutes, begin to give a tablespoonful OF
the same mixture every minnie til relief
was obtained. Apply hot applications TO
the extremities. Battle the bowels and
stomach with the Pain-Killer, clear, ana
rub the limbs briskly. or those who had
the Cholera and took the medicine faith
fully IN the way stated above, elght out OF
ten recovered. Fr -
Truly yours, H. IELF Oh1-
If attacked with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cramp Collie, do not delay the use OF the
Pain-Killer.
