Know Thy Destiny.

MADAME E. F. THORNTON the great En-
glsh Astrologist, Clairvoyant and Psychic
metrician, who has astonished the scientific
classes of the Old World, has now located
herself at Hudson, N. Y. Madame Thornton
possesses such wonderful powers Of second
sight, as to enable her to impart knowledge
of the greatest Importance to the single or
married Of either sex. While in a state of
trance, she delineates the very features of
the very person you are to marry, and by
the aid of an instrument of intense power,
known as the Psychomotrope, guarantees to
produce life-like picture of the future hus-
band or wife of the applicant, together with
date of marriage, position in life, leading
traits of character, &c. This no humbug,
as thousands of testimonials can ASSERT
She will send when desired a certified certifi-
CATE or written guarantee, that the picture
is what it purports to be. By enclosing a
small lock of hair, and stating place of birth,
age, disposition and complexion, and enclos-
ing fifty cents and stamped envelope ad-
dressed to yourself, you will receive the pic
ture and desired information by return mail.
All communications sacredly confidential.

SENSIBLE ADVICE FROM AN e.
LOVER OF THE ARDENT"
High upon the stool Pm placed,
Repeating in despair
Rejecting on the bars I've graced,
In dissipation, oh bewarei
The lofty stool on which i sit
Repentanceis its name!
All whisky's company have quit
Never more to keep again.
I'll drink no more the poisonous stuff,
~ At Bacchus shrine no more I'll kneel;
When last drank / got enough,
But how it was can't reveal.
So now my friend take warning,
And do as have done, ,,r
And you will rise each morning
As bright as the rising sun.
Your mind and ideas will be clear
Your business matters always straight
Your creditors you need not fear,
If my advice you take.
Your friends, they'll be firm and true
Not like the bar-room hangers-on,
Who'll drink, and drink, and drink with
you ft8t3tf
Till all your change is gone.
And when You have your change expended
And your pockets they are barei
By "hangers-on" they'll never be mended !;
Now who'll deny it If they dare. ur8
So to "hangers-on" all, here's q final Iare-
well,
And o curse 70 their low avoeation,
Their ultimate doom is a corner in hell,
And their company-ones degradation.
Wen, as the shades of eve are drawing
near,
This theme must abandon,
And now by all you holdmost dear,
Don't think talk at random.

A Home for jefferson Davis.

Mr.. Editor: 1t is matter of some surprise
that no suggestion has hitherto been made
to the people of Mississippi in reference to
providing home for JEFFERSON DAVIS.
After the cruel indignities, the long and
painful imprisonment which he has under
gone as the representative of our .'lost
cause" the least that we can do, for whom
he has vicariously suffered, is to make his
few declining years as comfortable as it is in
the power of sympathizing, loving and
grateful people to render him. f
Nor should we wait for action to be taken
in other States. 1t is the peculiar privilege
of Mississippi to take the initiative in dis
charging this sacred duty toward her own
JEFFERSON DAVIS, and it should be done
without delay.
In the midst of our poverty, deep as it is,
we can, by united effort, without difficulty,
without material inconvenience, accomplish
the eminently desirable object Let the
officers of the State form the Committee for |
carrying it into execution, and let contribu-
tions be sent to the Treasurer for the purpose
of purchasing, in the capital of the State, a
suitable residence for "1he nOblest Roman Of
them ALL" JACKSON.

The Hearts Home.

In the Past's dim land, DER which, all family,
This star of memory CLEANS,
Built by Aladdin Fancy, standeth
The palace of my dreams. m aH.
For oft in youth my spirit wandered
Through Hopes enchanted meadows,
Where dreams were bright realities
Realities but shadows. '@ G 81.
And there my lone heart sought its refuge,
It's home of blissful rest,
At morn, at noon, or where the sunset
-Illumed the distant west.
Kind words were spoken then--life's harsh
accents
Were whitening to my soul; Ty s
And bright eyes there shone on me kindly
The eyes without were cold.
And beaming in that dreamland palace
Were smiles Imissed on earth-Ea
o earth, how strong thy dark assassins hal
Who kill our childhoods mirth! r-s..s
But from that home, where naught was
missing
OF things that shine, save tears,
Far towards Eternity I've drifted,
Adown the stream of years.
