A LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD THEE. BY CLIO STANLEY. Oh, there never was so sweet a thing, So fair a thing, so rare a thing, As the sunny smile that lingers upon childhood’s rosy lip, Wi en the merry winds are rollicking, And the little breezes frolicking, And each dainty curl is tumbled to its farthest golden tip. Oh, there never was so bright a thing, So light, so wondrous white a thing, As the tender heart that singeth soft within a child’s pure breast, When the bright head faintly nodding is, Each little foot slow-plodding is, As it goeth up the golden stair of fancy into rest. Oh, there never was so dear a thing, So very, very queer a thing, As my white-robed, dainty darling, cuddled in her snowy nest, Saying over, “God, p’ease b’ess us all, And save the sunbeam on the wall, Just till I wake again;” then sinketh satisfied to rest. So my darling’s day is ended now, With dreams her fancies blended now, I’m left alone to watch the twilight gather at my door; But her sweet faith is contagious, And my heart grows more courageous, Though I see the last bright sunbeam die along my cottage floor I Though I know the joys that seem the best Are first to fly this lonely breast, Yet still I trust my Father has for mo some good in store; I know lie still will lead me Thro’ the wilderness, and feed me With choicest manna falling for his children ev ermore. §UMUn'OUS. Is the man who believes ia supper neces sarily sup(p)erstitious? Why is man that can’t mow as good as dead ? Because he’s no mower. Incredible as it may seem, the richest planters in Jamaica live on coffee grounds. Why is love like a Sc itch plaid ? Because its all stuff, and often crossed. A snuff box is a proper gift to send To one who at a pinch will prove a friend. When is a house like a bird ? When it has wings. Pawnbrokers sometimes prefer customers without any redeeming qualities. Haw old is a ship when she is at her anchor-age. I don’t remember having ever seen you before,” as the lawyer said to his conscience. Why is a note of hand like a rosebud ? Because it is matured by falling dew. Why is a screw in tight like a screw in loose ? Because it is in-secure. When the enterprising butcher’s assist ant “set up on his own hook,” did he find a comfortable seat ? What’s the difference between barbers generally, and the barbers of Atlanta? One shaves the face, the other the pockets. Some women are angry when you tell them you love them. Others are angrier when you don’t. To find out the number of children in the street, beat a b- ss drum. To find out the number of idle men, start a dog-fight. Young ladies who lace themselves too tightly when dressing for dinner evidently prefer grace before meat. “Dear me ! how heartily tired lam of this mourning !” said a fashionable young lady to her maid. “Jane, who I am in mourning for ?” Sunday is the strongest day, because all the others are week days ; yet if it is the strongest, why is it so often broken ? To take down the gridiron from the nail where it is hanging, with the left hand, is a sign that there will be a broil in the kitch en. A paper says, “We have adopted the eight hour system in this office. We commence work at eight o’clock in the morning, and close at eighiin the evening. “Mr. Thompson in ?” “No, Sir! he ain’t come ’omeyet, Sir!” “H’m ! That’s very awkward. When can I see him ?” “Shure I dunno, Sir; when he’s In he’s always Out, Sir !” A poet has forwarded to us this modern prayer: •‘Teach me to scan another’s faults, To hide the good I see ; To put upon some other back That blame that’s due to me.” “You carry the Pacific mails?” anxiously asked a nervous maiden lady of the captain of an Isthmus steamer. “Yes, ma’am,” the captain replied; “but they are all in bags, ma’am.” A vanished trail of dry-goods wa-< all there was left to suggest that somebody had made slight mistake. WE FORTUNES OF OUR PRESIDENTS , The last number of the American Histo rical Record gives the fortunes of the Pres idents, as follows : “ Was! ington loft an estate worth nearly ’300,000. The elder Adams left a moderate fortune at his deeth. Jefferson died comparatively poor. If Congress had not purchased his library at a price far above its value ($20,000) he would with difficulty have kept out ot bankruptcy at the close of his life. Madison saved his money and became rich. The fortune of his widow was increas ed by the purchase ot his manuscript papers, by Congress, lor $30,000. James Monroe, the sixth President, died so poor that he was buried at the expense of his relatives, in a cemetery between Sec ond and Third Streets, near the Bowery, in New York city. John Quincy Adams left about $50,000 the result ot industry, prudence, and a small inheritance. He was methodical and economical. Andrew Jackson left a valuable estate known as The Hermitage, about twelve miles from Nashville, Tenn. Martin Van Buren died rich. His es tate was estimated at neatly $300,000. J antes K. Polk left about $150,000. Johu Tyler was a bankrupt when he be came President. He husbanded his means while in office, and married a rich wife, and died wealthy in worldly fortune. Zachary Taylor left about $150,000. Millard Fillmore was a wealthy man. Franklin Pierce saved $50,000 during his term of service as President. James Buchanan died a bachelor and left an estate valued at $200,000 at the least. Abrahatn Lincoln left about $75,000. Johnson is said to be worth about SSO - President Grant was poor before the war. By a careful husbandry of his salary and through the ge”erous gifts ot friends before he became President, his fortune is a hand some competence.” [That last touch, on Grant, is very rich.] What a Little Girl Can Do.—Dur ing a meeting held at London in the im mense Exeter Hall, aud where a great num ber of Sabbath-school children were assem bled, a pastor rose and told them of two wicked boys he had formerly known, and ot a little girl named Mary Wood, whose ac quaintance he had formed. “That young girl,” he said, “frequented a Sabbath-school, where she had been taught to do good every day. Seeing two little boys in the street who were quarreling, she approached them and told them how very wicked it was, and after having succeeded in separating them she persuaded them to come to the Sabbath-school. These boys were named Jim and Tom. Tell me chil dren,” continued the pastor, “would you like to see Jim ?” “Yes, yes,” they cried, all of a voice. “Jim stand up ?” he said moving towards another side ofth° platform. A rcspeetahle missionary stood up and look ed a! the children, smiling. “Now do you wish to see Tom?” “Yes, yes,” was again heard through all the hall. “In that case look at me ; I'm Tom. But you would per haps be very glad, also, to see the little girl, Mary Wood?” The answer was still more bouyant and eager than the two first. “Well, see that lady over there, with a blue silk hat? that is Mary Wood, and she is my wife.” Cause of Power in tiie Right Hand. —ln a paper read before the Chirurgical Society of London, Dr. Ogle states it as his belief that the superiority of the right hand, in work requiring strength and skill, is not due merely to custom and usage His reasons for this opinion are that the superior power of the right side is not con fined to the arm, but extends to the leg, and that it commences in the arm before use or education begins, and continues in spite of all efforts to resist or divert it. This supe riority has a resemblance to some malforma tions, inasmuch as it is hereditary, and is met with most (rcqueti ly in the male sex, not only in men, but in apes and parrots. — The author further asserts that the left side of a right handed man is greater than the right, and vice versa, and he suggests that this greater development of the left side is due to the greater quantity of blood which it receives. Toasts and Sentiments. —May the wing of good fellowship never have its pri mary leathers clipped by a fine of five dol lars. May the tea-spoon ot temperance never stir up disaffection in the glass of the mod erate drinker. i May hope illuminate our future without calling on the past to pay for the oil. May the tree of liberty flourish, and may somebody else have to pay for the manure for it. May the hinges of friendship never re quire palm-oil. “An upright judge and a downright ju ry”—and, if possible, a straightforward counsel. May the cheerful heart neaer want a bot tle to give to himself. A Jersey paper tells a very interesting story of a little boy in that State. He was climbing an apple-tree, and when upon the topmost limb he slipped and fell to the ground. He was picked up and carried in to the house in an insensible condition.— After watching by his bedside through many weary hours, his mother perceived signs of returning consciousness Loaning over him, she asked if there was anything she could do for him, now that he began to feel better. Should she bathe his forehead, or change his pillow, or fan him ? Was there anything that he wanted? Opening his eyes languid'y, and looking at her, the lit tle sufferer said : “Yes; I want a pair of pants with a pocket behind.” He got them. “Little boy, can I go through this gate to the river?” politely inquired a fashiouablv dressed lady “Perhaps so; a load of hay weut through this morning,” was the horrid reply.

It will eradicate, extirpate and thoroughly destroy all poisonous substances in the Blood and will ef fectually dispel all predisposition to billious derangement. Is there want of action in your Liver and Spleen? Unless relieved at once, the blood becomes im pure by deleterious secretions, producing scrof ulous or skin diseases, Blotches, Felons,Pustules, Canker, Pimples, &c Ilaveyoua Dyspeptic Stomach? Unless digestion is promptly aided the system is debilitated with loss of vital force,poverty of the blood, dropsical tendency, general weakness or lassitude. Have you Weakness of the Intestines? You arc in danger of Chronic Diarrhoea or the dreadful In flammation of the Bowels. Have you weakness of the Uterine or Urinary Or gans? You are exposed to suffering in its most aggravated form. Are you dejected , drowsy, dull, sluggish or de depressed in spirits, with headache, backache, coated tongne and bad tasting mouth. For a certain remedy for nil of these diieases, and weaknesses and troubles; for cleansin2 and purifying the vitiated blood and impartiug vigor to all the vital forces ; for bui/ding up and re storing the weakened constitution to USE JURUBEBA which is pronounced by the leading medical au thorities of Loudon and Paris “the most power ful tonic and alterative known to the medical world.” This is no new aud untried discovery but hae been lono used by the leading physi cians of other countries with wouderful reme dial results. Don't weaken and impain the digestive organs by cathartics and physics, they give only tempo rary relief—lndigestiou, flatuleucy and dyspep sia with piles and kindred disease are sure to follow their use.

Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs, such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma, and Consumption. Probably never before in the whole history of medicine, has any thing won so widely and so deeply upon the conlidence of mankind, as this excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a long series of years, and among most of the races of men it has risen higher and higher in their estimation, as it has become better known. Its uniform character and power to cure the va rious affections of the lungs and throat, have made it known as a reliable protector against them. While adapted to milder forms of disease and to young children, it is at the same time the most effectual remedy that can he given for incip ient consumption, and the dangerous affections of the throat and lungs. Asa provision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should he kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all are some times subject to colds and coughs, all should ho provided with this antidote for them. Although settled Consumption is thought in curable, still great numbers of cases where the disease seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the patient restored to sound health by the Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that the most obstinate of them yield to it. When nothing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pectoral they subside and disappear. Singe, s and Public Speakers find great protection from it. Asthma is always relieved and often wholly cured by it. Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses. So generally are its virtues known, that we need not publish the certificates of them here, or do more than assure the public that its qualities are fdlly maintained. Ayer’s Ague Cure, For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c., and indeed all the affections which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic poisons. As its name implies, it does Cure, and does not fell. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis muth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance whatever, it in nowise injures any pa tient. The number and importance of its cures in the ague districts, are literally beyond account, and we believe without a parallel m the history of Ague medicine. Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgments we receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate cases, and where other rem edies had whrTy failed. .... Unacclimawd persons, either resident in, or travelling through miasmatic localities, will he protected by taking the A(lr UE C URli daily. For liver Complaints , arising from torpid ity of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimu lating the Liver into healthy activity. For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is an excellent remedy, producing many truly remarkable cures, where other medicines had failed. _ „ _ .. . Prepared by Dr. J. C.
