* ^orfnj. 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.

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. “ None of your reflections,” ugly miss said to the mirror. as the PUBLIC NOTICE.

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.” A person out west is offering for sale grass seed gathered from the “ path of rectitude.” A religious contemporary tears that the path mutt be sadly over grown with grass—it is so little traveled now-a-days. Chatham street.—Shopkeeper— Yat you buy ? Vat you buy ? Latest fashion of pants and coats, all of de newest materials and very cheap. Von’t you valk in. my dear, and try on a satin vest, only two dollars—shiny, you sail have it for one dollar. Mr.- —So, your name is Charley, is it? Now Charley doesn’t know who I am? Sharp Little boy.—Oh, yes! but I do,though. Mr. .—Well who am I ? 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 •directly.” “ Mike, why don’t you tire at those ducks, boy—don’t you see you have got the whole flock before your gun." “ I know I have, but when I get ».9od aim nt one, two o • three others will swim right up betwixt it and me.” 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 a shilling bundle ?" “ Shilling.” *• Is it for your father ?” “ No, it taint— that’s for the horse. My fatlur don’i eat hay!” The proverb, “The longer one livt-s the more he’ll see,” can’t nilude to money noiv-a-day*. “ 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 sorts of colors.” “Whose boy are you ?” “When any body axes you that, tell ’em you don’t know.” Cheap Horses.—■* We have a span of horses,’ said an economic the other day, * on our farm, that support them selves without any cost.’ * Why, how is that ?’ exclaimed listener. ‘ Why, you see,’ remarked the ques tioned, * one is a saw horse, and the other a clothes horse.’ There is no nobility like that of a great heart,for it never stoops to artfices, nor is wanting in good offices where they are seasonable.—That is true no bility. No young man or woman can hop* to rise in society, or act worthily their part without a moral character. N. B.—Letters to be directed “per Steam er via.

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. PERRY DAVIS A SON, Proprietors, No. 74 High st.. Providence, R I. The Pain Killer is s >ld by C. W.AH. R.
