Mr farter, who places great value upon the tiger, has hopes that he may be recovered. wounds, particular those in ihe throat, are very severe, but are not considered to be dangerous. Morn. BY MRS. J. L. GRAY, EASTON, PA. Morn is the lime to wake — The eyelids to unclose— Spring from the arms of sleep, and break The fetters of repose ; > Walk at the dewy dawn abroad, * And hold sweet fellowship with God. Morn is the time to pray— How lovely and how meet. To send our earliest thoughts avi ay Up to the mercy seat I Ambassadors for us, to claim ; A blessing in our Master’s namb. Morn it the time to sing— How charming ’tis to hear The mingling notes of nature ring In the delighted ear ; And with that swelling anthem ruse The soul’s fresh matin song of praise ! Morn is Ihe time to sow The seeds of heavenly truth. While balmy breezes softly blow Upon the soil of youth I And look to Ihce, nor look in vaifl. Our God, for sunshine and for rails. Morn is the time to love — As tendrils of the vine The young affections fondly rove, And seek them where to twine ; Around thyself, in thine embrace. Lord, let them lind their resting; place. Morn is the lime to shine, When skies are clear and blue-'— Reflect the rays of light divine, > * As morning dew-drops do; | Like early stars, be early bright, ‘ And melt away like them in hghr. Morn is the time to weep O’er evening hours missporit- 1 - Alas ! how oft from peaceful sice », On folly madly bent, "We’ve left the strait and narrow load, And wander’d fiom our guardian |3od. Morn is the timo to think, While thoughts arc fresh and s flee, Os life, just balanced on the brinl Os dark eternity .' j Ana ask our souls if they are mej-t To stand before the judgment scay ? Morn is the time to die, j Just at the dawn of day When stars arc fading in the sky* To fade like them away — ; But lost in light more brilliant far Thau ever merged the evening star. Morn is the time to rise, \ The resurrection morn— i ; Upspringing to the glorious skieu^ On new-found pinions borne,! [ To meet a Saviour’s smile divine,— such ecstatic rising mine ! * • !

WE have heretofore numbered ourselves a- 1 mong those who believed that “Jayne’s Hair Tonic” was one of the many quack nostrums whose virtues are never seen beyond the firlsome puffs of their authors. W'e are willing, at length, to make public acknowledgment of the error of our i belief. An intimate friend, some two or three months since, all the top of whose cranium was as bald as a piece of polished marble .maugre all our jesting and ridicule of the idea o j attempting to cultivate so barren a spot, purchased a bottle or two of the Hair Tonic from Dr. Jayne, and accord ing to his directions applied it. During the present week the same friend ushered himself into our presence, and uncovering his hitherto naked head, astonished us with a thin, though luxuriant growth of hair, from one to two inches in length—upon the very premises we had believed as unyielding to cultivation as the trackless sand that skirts the At lantic. This is no puff, but is religiously true ; and to those who doubt, the gentle nan can be pointed out. What is more in favor of this “Tonic,” the case here cited was not one of temporary baldness —no sudden loss of the hair—but was one of years’ i standing, though the gentleman is but forty-five years of ag e.—Philadelphia Spirit of the times October 21sf, 1839. * j This valuable remedv for the growth, preserva tion and restoration of the Hair, can be had of WM.

PEDIGREE. J U. 11. Acklin, Ksq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows :—“ Tom Tunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High land Mary and tier dam a full-blooded Archie inure; the sire of Highland Mary was old Parole*. Tom Tunstall was sired by o’d Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended from as good a stock as any horse in the United States.— lie was a race horse of the first order, but 1 lear will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg ; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har dy Cryer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Maiy combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough breds than any mate ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolct, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine, (son of O’K el ley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest importations of the last centuiy;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangier; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s olti Twigg; great-great greal-great-gvand-dain by imported Fearnaught; great-great-graat-great-great-grand-darn by Lee’s old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mon key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and sex Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent, feb 22—trw&wtf FURNITURE AND PIANO FORTE HARE-HOUSE, No. 236 Broad street, Augusta , Georgia.
