HISTORY.

History is an interesting and in
structive textbook; a grand theme
for the mind to dwell upon. Every
page in her great volumn beams
with the bright of truth; every
line moves its heart with noble
thought; and every chapter pict-
ures upon the mind something
that has transpired in the ages that
have gone before us. She opens TO
us her vast storc-house and the soul
feasts itself on the contemplation of
the noblest and greatest elements
in human character and progress,
upon the loftiest conception at
which the human mind has ever
arrived. and upon the most sublime
achievements of human intellect,
energy and ambition. AS before
the morning sun, Zembla's beau
teous frost. work falls, to before
her brightness Imagination's gor-
geous temples vanish, and the airy
tabrications of fancy and fiction fade
away. Generation after genera
ton rises and passes away; the
marble statue and colossal pyramid
60 back to dust; heroes rise and
revolutionize empires; despots
crush kingdoms beneath their feet;
nations die amid the convulsive
throes of revolutions and are almost
forgotten; while History stands
with outstretched hands pointing
us to their ruins, and with sweet,
sad voice, sings their requiem song.
History with her ten thousand
voices louder than the peals of
heavens artillery, calls upon man
to contemplate the ruins that lie
moldering in gloomy blackness
along the winding highway of ma
tions, and bids him take timely
warning from their wrecks. The
sacred historic page transports us
hack on the wings of a lively imag-
ination to the days of primitive pn-
rity, ere creations face was marred,
or nature wep. tears of sadness
over the crime and fall of her first
born and noblest son; and with
faithful and unfaltering hand has
she penned such successive events
that has transpired in the ages
which have wanned and fallen into
eternity. We Gull from her garden
the beautiful flowers of wisdom and
sip from their leaves the sweet
dews of knowledge. From her
pages We gather the fruit of the Ia
bors of earth's most profound and
most gifted sons; all the doings of
men and of nations, though those
men and nations may long since
have passed away, are spread out
before the mental eye in one great
and magnificent painting. Where
now are the wonders of the ancient
world her palaces and temples |!
her monuments and catacombs {!

grandeur of the Empire" }" the mag
niicent architecture of the Grecian
where are they? Hidden with
the buried treasures of the past,
they themselves slumber in obliv-
ions night, while the clear sweet
voice of History comes sounding
down the ages" telling us how
they rose, fiourished and passed
away. Pompcii and Herculaneum

SINKING SLowLY.-Diseascs that pro-
gress rapidly to a crisis are not the only ones
to be dreaded. Cankcr or dry rot does not
blast tree as suddenly as stroke of light
ming, but unless arrested it destroys it as
certainly; and in like manner chronic debili
ty, although it docs not kill with the swift
ness of yellow fever, is as sure to sap the
springs of life eventually as any acute dis
case, if not checked by invigorating midica-
ton. There is something inexpresslbly
touching in the spectacle of premature de-
cay. Languor, pallor, emaciation, deprcs-
sion of spirits, and distaste for cxcrton;
are its ordinary symptoms, and they should
be promptly met by tonic treatment. The
best invigorant and cxhilerant that can be
administered in a case Of this kind is Hos
letters Stomach Bittcrs. The stimulating
principle of the preparation rouscs the dor
lnant energies of the eystem, and the strength
cning and regulating properties give per.
manent and healthful impulse to the vital
forces thus brought into play. The fallen
appetite is re-awakencd, the process Of diges-
sior and assimilation are quickcncd, the
quality of the blood is improved, the secrc-
tiops become more natural, and every organ
fhat contributes to the nourishment of the
body undergoes salutary change. BY these
means the repair of the physical structure is
effected and its health and vigor restored.
In no class of disease has the bencfccnt op.
Grafton of the Bitters been more marked and
striking than those characterized by general
debility and nervous prostration: Ladies
affected with these ailments find in this
most wholesome of all tonics and corrcctives
the safest and surest means of relief. 1t is
ssrong to restore and powerless to injure.-
Such is the uniform testimony Of "clouds of
witnesses"

II Know Thou Hast Gene"

81 know thou hast gone tothe home ofthy rest,
Then why should my soul be so sad!
! know thou hast gone wherethc weary arc blest,
And the mourner looks up and is glad.
Whrre love has put off, in the land Of its birth,
The stain it had gathered in this,
AMI hope the sweet singer that gladdened the
earth,
Lies asleep on the bosom Of bliss
81 know thou hast gone where thy foreheadis
starred,
With the beauty that dwclt in thy soul,'
Where the light ofthy lovelnes cannot be married.
Nor thy heart be flung back from its goal;
know thou hath drunk Of the Lethe that flows,
Through land where they do not forget
That sheds over memory, only rcpose,-
And takes from it, only regret
"In thy far-away dwelling. wherever it be,
believe thou hast visions of mine,
And the love that made all things as music to me,
have not yet learned to resign-
In the hush Of the night, OIL the vast of the sea,
Or alone with the breeze on the hili;'
] have ever Il presence that whispers of thee,
And my spirit hes down and sstill.'
"Ai le eye must be dark that 50 long has been dim,
Ere againit may gaze upon thine,
But my heart has rcvcalinss ofthee ana thy honie'
In many a token and sign;
Incvcr look up with q vow tcthe sky,
But light like thy beauty is there
And hear lone murmur, like thine inreply,
WhenI pour out my spirit in prayer
"And though like mourncr who sits byatomb,
am wrapped in II mant.c OF care,
Yet the grief of my bosom--oh, call it not gloom
Is not the blnck grief of diSpnir;
BY sorrow revealed, as the stars arc by night
Far off bright vision appears
And hope, like the rainbow, n creature of light,
Is born-likc the rainbow, in tears
