THE PRESIDENT AND THREE PATRIOTS.
One day, when President Lincoln
was alone and busily engaged on an
important subject, involving veXation
and anxiety, he was, by some mis-
chance, disturbed by the unwarranted
intrusion of three men, who, without
apology, proceeded to lay their claim
before him. The spokesman Of the
three reminded the President that they
were the owners of some torpedo, or
other warlike invention, which, if the
Government would only adopt it, would
soon crush the rebellion.
Now" said the spokesman, Eve
have been here to see you time and
again ; you have referred us to the Sec
retary of War, to the Chief of Ordnance
and the General of the Army, and they
will give us no satisfaction. We have

AYERS PILLS.

a large proportion of the diseases which
cause human suffering result from derange-
ment of the stomach bowels, and liver.
AYERS CATHARrIC PILLS act directly upon
these organs, and are especially designed to
cure the diseases caused by their Gerarge-
ment, including Constipation, indiges-
ton, Dyspepsia. Headache, Dysentery,
and a host of other ailments, for all of
which they are safe, sure, prompt, and
pleasant remedy. The extensive use of these
PILLS by eminent physicians IN regular prac-
tice. shows Enthusiastically the estimation in
which they are held by the medical profess
sion.
These PILLS are compounded of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calomcl or any other injurious ingredient.
a Sufferer from Headache writes:
AYERS PILLS are invaluable to me- and
are my constant companion. l have been
a severe sufferer from Headache and your
PILLS are the only thing | could look to
for relief. One dose will quickly move my
bowels and free my head from pain. They
are the most effective and the easiest physic
have ever found. 1t is pleasure to me to
speak in their praise, and l always do SO

The REV. FRANCIS Il. HARLowE, writing
from -fHrhtt, Co, says: For some years
past | have been subject to constipation,
from which, in spite of the use of med-
cncs OF various kinds suffered increasing
Inconvenience, until some months ago l
began taking AYERS PILLS. They have
entirely corrected the costive habit, and
have vastly improved my general health"
AYERS CATHARrlC PILLS correct irregu-

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense
of weight in the back, lons and lower part
of the abdomen, causing the patient to sup
pose he has Seme affection of the kidneys or
neighboring organs. At times symptoms
of indigestion are present, as tiatulency, un-
easiness of the stomach, etc. \ moisture,
like perspiration, producing very dis
agreeable itching, after getting warm, is a
common attendant. Bind, Bleeding and
Itching Piles yield at once to the applica-
ton of DR.. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected, abb
sorbing the Tumors, aiaying the intense
itching, and affecting permanent cure.

My DEAR Miss SoPHIA-I have begged
Mr.. Carey to call on you to day for the
medallion to go to Waterford, and the
one for New York, if ready-aud pack
them at his shop. | have also requested
him to take your orders for the time
when he shall pack the two which you
carry to Salem. He is to bring you, l
hope, to-day, the two new casts, one of
which when ready wish to send to Mr..
Abel Adams, and if Mrs. Hooper will
allow the other to lie in her home few
days will presently send for it.
Elizabeth is very we'll content with
the cast, though she thinks it has lost
some of the precision as well as the
agreeable tint of the clay. All our
friends find the likeness-some of them
slowly. but all at last. We all count i: a
beautiful possession, the gift OF muse,
and not the less valuable that it was SO
unexpected. You must now crafty us
all by fixing time when you will come
to Concord and hear what we have to
say of it. Will you not come hither the
last week of this month, or the second
week in June? If neither of these dates
suit you, you shall choose any day there
after, only do not fail us.
Your friend and servant,

You make me heartily ashamed, my
kind friend, by the excess of your praise
of two such little books. l could not
possibly recognize anything of me in
your glowing and pictorial words. So
l take it for granted that as true artist
you have the beauty-making eye. which
transfgures the landscape and the heads
it looks upon, and can read poetry out of
dull prose. l am not the less glad to
have been the occasion to you of pleasant
thoughts, and l delight in the genuine
admiration you express of that Ideal
Beauty which haunts US ever, and makes
actual life look sometimes like the coars-
est caricature.
l like very well " hat you say of Flax
man, and shall give him the greater
heed. And, indeed who can see the
works of a great artist without feeling
that not So much the private as the COM
mon wealth is by HIM indicated? |

spring with all, regards all souls as its
lieutenants and proXies-itself in another
place-and saith Of the Parthenon, of
the picture, of the poem, ''It is Also My
Work" | can never quarrel with your
state of mind regarding original attempts
in your own art. | admire it rather; and
| am panied to think of the grevous re-
sistance which your genius has been SO
long tasked to overcome, of bodily suf-
fering.
You asa for my lectures. l wish they
were fit to send. They should go i'm
mediately to Salem If they were. l have
not allowed one Of them to go in manu-
script out of my family. The first one
of the course, which is the most present
able, will cheerfully send you, when
ever can get time to patch his coat a
little. 1t is, however, already promised
to two persons.

drawing you sent me Of ''PeTsuasion.
