TO MY NATIVE PLACE.
BY tllOS. W, RX.NNK.
The Indiant when his lamp oflife
With faint and waning lustre burns,
And weary from the battle’s strife
And spirit-stirring chase he turns,
Sigh* for the fields and stream* where sprung
His young dreams into manhood’s fires,
Forever there to rest among
T^o graves and ashes of his sires,
Bo, Maspeth, turns my heart to thee,
Scene of my spirit’s Sabbath hours,
"Where sported not more joyously
The bird amid thy woodland bowers,
Thau my young feet, that, winged with joy,
Forever springing new and bright,
Had but one task, one sweet employ.
To chase the phantoms of delight—
The visions that from morn till eve
Rose to my soul’s enraptured view,
And which, if false, did so deceive.
They had not given more bliss if true.
Though briefs* bright, yet still around
My spirit flit those forms of bliss
That Heaven to childhood's hour lias bound,
Aud Memory saves to gladden this
1 roam thy fields, I climb tby hills
With awildjoy,even uow,as then:
Aud still the lovely prospect thrills
My heart—and 1 am young again!
Thy streams have something in their flow
That liuks to them this heart of mine—
I know uotwhat, but only kuow
1 love no other streams as tlune.
Unaltered, where all else has changed,
Albeit, unmnpped, unnoted, these
Has Heaven in beauty round us ranged
As landmarks in our destinies—
The heart's material boundaries,
To which, how far soe’er it roam,
It tnay at will return, and seize
A blessing, if not a borne.

VARIETY, T1IE SR ICE OF LIFE''
The advantage of taking a newspaper
is made clear by the following lines:—
An old nowsmonger friend of mine.
While <jyi n g of a cough,
Desired to heat the latent news
While he was going off.
I took the paper, and I read
Of some new pills in force;
He bottght a box—and is he dead i
No—heartv Us ah ’ovae 1
The coin the most current among
mankind is flattery, the only benefit of
which is, that by hearing what we are
not, we may be instructed what we
ought to be.
“My son, how could you marry an
Irish girl?” “Why, father, I am not
able to keep two women. If I’d marry
a Yankee gal, I’d been obliged tb hire
an Irish gal to take care of her.
A man should never be ashamed to
ownjthat he has been in the wrong. It is
only but saying, in other words, that he
is wiser to-day than he was yesterday.
It was once said of a beautiful woman,
that from her childhood she had ever
spoken smilingly, as if the heart poured
joy from the lips, and they turned it in
to beauty.
Pretty girls who wear veils contrive
to let the wind blow them aside when
they meet a smart young fellar.

Printing and Publishing.—A lady
compositor explained to an intcrest : ng
y’oung man, the other day, the difference
between printing and publishing, and at
the conclusion of her remarks, by way
of illustration, she said : *• You may
print a kiss on my cheek, but you must
not publish it.”

Sharp little boy.—Why, you arc the
-gentleman who kissed sister Sophy in
the parlor, the other night, when you
though* .10 one was there.
11 Well, Patrick,” asked a doctor of
Lis patient. “ how do you do to-day ?”
Oh, dear doctor. I enjoy very bad
health entirely. This rheumatics is
very distressing indeed. When I go to
sleep, 1 lay awake all night; and my
toe is swelled ns big ns a goose’s hen’s
-egg, so that when I stand up I fall down

“ Mike, why don’t you tire at those
ducks, boy—don’t you see you have got

“ I know I have, but when I get

H. W. Beecher says: ‘*1 never
knew an early rising, hard working
man, careful of bis earnings, and strictly
honest who complained of bad luck. A
good character, good habits, and good
industry are impregnable to the assaults
of all ill luck tlmt fools ever dreamed
of.” __
“ Please, mister, give me a bundle of
hay ?” *• Yes, my boy. Six penny or

The proverb, “The longer one livt-s

“ W ell Cuffee,” said a master to his
colored servant, “ what were you doing
at meeting this afternoon ?”
“ Doing, Massa ? Taking notes,” was
his reply.
“You taking notes!” exclaimed his
master.
“ Sartin massa ; all the gentlemen
take notes.”
“ Well let me see them,” said he.
Cuffee thereupon produced a sheet of
paper and his master found it scrawled
over with all sorts of marks and lines as
if a dozen of spiders dipped in ink had
marched over it.
“ Why, this is all nonsense,” said the
minister, as he looked at the notes.
“ Well, massa,” Cuffee replied, “ I
thought so all the time you was preach
ing.”
“My young friend,” said a minister to
a boy at a camp meeting, “ do you ever
think of a future state ?”
“No, I never meddle with state affairs,
though bl-other John*is a politicianer.
“Do you ever think of dying ?”
“No—hut I guess our Sally did when
she had the measles, for she turned all

“Whose boy are you ?”
“When any body axes you that, tell

There is no nobility like that of a

PERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
PAIN KILLER,
STILL TRIUMPHANT,
A ND after a thorough trial by innumerable
living witnesses, has proved itself to be
THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE
Although there have been many medicinal
preparations brought before the pnblic since
the first introduction < f Perry Davis’ Vegeta
ble Pain Killer, and large amounts expended
in their introduction, the Pain Killer bas
continued to steadily advance in the estima
tion of the world as the best Family Medi
cine ever introduced. As an internal and
external remedy it is truly a source of
JOY TO THE WORLD
One positive proof of its efficacy is, that
the sales have constantly increased, and
wholly upon its own merits, as the proprie
tors have net resorted to advertising to gain
for it the rank it now holds among the great
number of preparations of the present time.
Tbe effect of tbe Pain Killer upon the pa
tient, when taken internally in cases of
Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints, Cholera,
Dyssentery and other affections of the sys
tem, has been truly wonderful, and has won
for it a name among medicinal preparations
that can never be forgotten. Its success in
removing pain, as an external remedy, in
cases of burns, bruises, sores, sprains, cuts,
sting of insects and other causes of suffering,
has secured for it such a host of testimony,
as an almost infallible remedy, that it will
be handed down to posterity as one of the
greatest medical discoveries of the nine
teenth century. The magical effects of the
Pain Killer when taken or used according to
directions,are certain. You have only to be
sure that you buy the genuine article and
adhere to the directions in its U9e, aud you
will admit its wonderful medicinal proper
ties.
The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is
now put up in panel bottles, with the words
Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the
glass; and with two steel engraved labels
on each bottle—ouean excellent likeness of
Perry Davis, tbe Original inventor of the
medicine, the o’her a Steel engraved note of
hand—none others can be relied upon as ge
nuine. Price of bottles 12 1-2 cents, 25 ceuts,
50 cents and $1, respectively.
