Origin of a Familiar Line

A correspondent of Harper's BazaI
writes that the oft-qaoted line, 4 Though
lost to sight, to memory dear, originated
with Ruthven Jenkyns, and was first pub
lished in the greenwich Magazine to7
Marines, in l70l or l702 As literary
curiosity, we quote the whole poem:
Sweetheart, goodbye! the iuttring sail
Il spread TO watt me far from thee,
And soon before the fay'ring gale
MY ship shall bound upon the sea.
Perchanee, all desolate and forlorn,
These eyes shall miss thee many year;
Bat uuforgotten every charm
Though lost TO sight, to mem'ry dear.
Sweetheart goodbye one last embrace!
o cruel fate two souls to severl
Yet in this hearts most sacred place
Thou thou alone. shall dwell forever
And still shall recollection trace
In fancy's mirror, ey' near
Each smile, each tear, that form, that faCe-
Though lost to sight, 10 memry dear.

Ague and Fever,
OR CHILLS AND FE YER.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly
claims for 1t superiority over all remedies
offered TO the public for the safe certain spec
dy and permanentseaFe of Ague and Fever, or
Ebiils and Fever whether OF short or long stand
ing. He refers to tbe entire Western and South
ern country to bear him testimony to the truth OF
the assertion that m 10 whatever will Ii fail
TO cure if the directions are strictly followed and
carried out. In a great many cases single dose
has been sufficient foF cure, and whole families
have been cured bysa single bottle with perfect
restoration Of the general health. 1t is. however
prudent and in every case more certain of cure, il
its is continued In smaller doses for week OF
two after the disease has been checked, more es
pecially in difficult and long standing cases Usu
ally this medicine VIII not require any aid TO keel
the bowels in good order. Should the patient
however, require eathartie medicine, after having
taken three or four doses of the tonic, single
dose of Bulls Vegetable Family Pills will be sufi
cient.
