BRIGHT HOURS ONLY. A lesson in itself sublime, A lesson worth enshrining, Is this : I take no heed of time, Save when the sun is shining. These motto words a trial bore, And wisdom never readies To human hearts a better lore Than this short sentence teaches. As life is sometimes bright and fair, And sometimes dark and lonely, Lotus forget the toil and care, And note the bright hours only. There is no grove on earth’s broad chart, Bat has some biid to cheer it, S® hop? e’er sings in every heart, Although we may not hear it. And if to-day the heavy wing Of sorrow is oppressing, Perchance to morrow’s sun will bring The weary heart a blessing. We bid the joyous moments haste, And then forget their glitter, We take the cup of life and taste No portion but the bitter. But we should teach our hearts to deem Its sweetess hearts the strongest, .And pleasant hours should ever seem To linger round us longest. The darkest shadows of the night Are just before the morning, Then let us wait the coming light, All boding phantoms scorning, And while we’re passing on the tide Of time’s last ebbing river, Let’s pljick the blossom by its side, And bless the gracious Giver. t —*— —f r—- MARK TW'AIN ON A RAILROAD CAR. I got into the cars and took a seat in jux taposition to a female. The female’s face was a perfect ir.suranoo company to her —-it insured her against ever getting married to any body except a blind man. Her mouth looked iike a crack in a dried lemon, and there was no more expression than in a cup of oold custard. She appe red as if she had been through one famine and got about two-thirds through another. She was old enough to be great grandmother to Mary that had a little lamb. She was chewing jffize popcorn, and carried in her hand ayel lpw rose, while a band box and cotton urn brella nestled sweetly by her side. I could not guess whether she was on a mission of charity, or was going west to start a saw mill. I was f uIQ of curiosity to hear her speak, so I said, “The exigencies of the times require cir cumspection in a person who is traveling.” Says she,.“what ?” Says I, “the orb ol day shines resplend ent in the vault above ” ‘ She hitched around uneasy like, then she raised her umbrella and said : “I don’t want any of your sass—git. out”—and I got out. Then I took a seat alongside a male fel low, who loved to see Xhe ghost of Hamlet lengthened out. He was a stately cuss, and he was reading. Says I, “Mister, did you ever see a cam elopard ?” I said camelopard, because it is a pious animal, and never eats any grass without getting down on its knees. He said he hadn’t seen a camelopard. Then said I, “do you chew V’ He said, “no sir." Then said I, “how sweet is nature.” He took this for a conundrum, and said ho did not know. Then he said he was deeply interested in the history of a, great man. “Alas!” he exclaimed, “we are but few.” I told him I knew one; the man that made my cooking stove was a great man. Then he asked, “would I read ?” Says I, “what have you got He replied, “Watts’ Hymns, Reveries by Moonlight, and How to Spend The Sab bath:” I said, “none of them for Hannah, but if you have an unabridged business directory of New York city I will take a little read.” Then he said, “young man, look at these gray hairs.” I told him I saw them, and when a man got as old as he was he ought to die. Says 1, “you need not think, those hairs are any sign of wisdom—l had seen a very wise man that was bald headed—it’s only a sign that your system lacks iron, and I advise you to go home and swallow a crowbnr.” He took this for irony, and what little of entente cordiale there was between us was spilled. It turned out that he was chaplain of a base ball club. When we got to Rochester, I called lor a bowl of bean soup. It ought to be callea lead soup. I send you the recipe for mak ing it: “Take a lot of water, wash it well, and broil it until it is brown on both sides then very carefully pour one bean into it and let it simmer. When the bean begins to get restless, sweeten it with salt, then put it up Into air tight cans, hitch each can to a brick and chuck it over, and the work is done.” The above recipe originated with a man in lowa,.who got up suppers on odd occasions fir Odd Fellows. He has a recipe for oys ter soup, leaving out the salt. Speaking of lowa, reminds me of the way I got the money to pay tor my ticket and that fellow’s supper. I bet a fellow a dollar that I oould toll how much water to a quart went under the railroad bridge over the Mis- S ssippi at Dubuque in a year. He bet, and I said two pints to a quart. 1 won the bet, but after all, that supper was an awful swin dle. If that city did not settle faster than its coffee did, its old settler’s club would be a failure and the city too. Dubuque is celebrated for its fine turnout on the streets. While 1 was there a wagon upset and spilled a lot of women. fiOD*ISLOVE. The attribute of love, peculiar to our Di vine Master, was strikingly exemplified af ter the creation of man and his implanta tion in the garden of Eden. Viewing man in the light of love and pity, he saw, in bis iufiuite wisdom, that it was uot good for him to be alone. The creator himself being love, and created in the image of his Lord, it became necessary to create an object, ot itselt lovely, on which man might lavish his love and as a companion in his low estate. This object t>od created and called woman. After the fall of man and his expulsion from the garden, it was the attribute of love reigning supreme in the bosom of De ity that prompted him to leave the courts of heaven, come down to earth, assume human ity, bleed and die, that fallen and proud man might inherit eternal life. Was ever love like this manifested by flesh and blood, even toward those endeared by the ties of life. Is there on record a single instance of a relative or friend eomiug forward to as sume the ptace of one condemned under the hw to suffer death, as did our Saviour ? We contend that love prompted this .sacrifice of life on the part of our Saviour iu behalf ot man. All the blessings we enjoy, spiritual or temporal, prove to us that God is love.— Should he wit! draw from us his love and protecting cure, how suddenly would wo be summoued before the bar of the great Je hovah. This love is manifested by God toward all his creatures; a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice. To prove that love is an attribute strik ingly peculiar to the divine mind, we are commanded to love our enemies, as Christ loved his enemies and those who persecuted him for righteousness’ sake. The objects of man’s loYe should not be those which per tain to time and sense, but those which re down to the honor and glory of God and the salvation of immortal souls. Let us then, as mortals, centre our affec tions on the great source and foundation of our love, that it may be well with us, iu time as well as in eternity. “Son, give me thy heart,” is the mandate ot the great I Am, and, hearkening to the voice of omnis cience, we should love him with ail the heart and our neighbor as ourselves, for he first loved us and gave himself a ransom for us. “The deep affections.of the .breast That heaven to living things imparts, Are noCexctusively possessed By human hearts.” The fields clothed in their rich verdure, trees laden with luscious fruits, the war nings of sweet songsters, and the g'a Iness of all animated nature when spring grid summer make their approach, is an evi dence that God is love. God is love in its purest and most' divine acceptation. Con templating divinity with these attributes of love and mercy, we are wont to exclaim, “Bring terth the royal diadem aad crown him lord of all!” “God of love that hearest prayer, Kindly for thy people care Who on thee alone depend ; Love us, save us to the end.” A. E EL —.— A Dutchman’s Thick. —While a Dutch man was passing through a city, Vermont, a Yankee came up to him, and said : “Shon, if you tre-at to cider, I will learn you a trick.” Shon agreed. Yank then placed his hand against a feuce, and tcld him to strike it as hard as he could. Shon, not thinking any harm could befall him by doing so, struck a blacksmith’s blow, but instead of hitting Yank’s hand, the latter jerking it away, poor Shon struck the fence board knocking it off. “Mein Gott in Himniel 1” cried Shon. — “What you makes foolish f I knock mine hand off clean up to the elbow ! Oh, suck er blitz 1 my poor frau, what will she say ? ’ Poor Shon was bound to have reveDge ; so one day, as he was passing ttirough a field he espied a man. Going up to him, he said : ‘•Mynheer, I show you one little trick for noddink.” As there was no fence or trees near, Siion put his hand against his moUtli, find, said : “Strike yust as hard as you can.” Mynheer struck, and away his hand, and received the blow on bis mouth, and was knocked down. Shon jump ed up, his mouth bleeding, and commenced dancing with pain. “Sherusalem! a thousand tuyfuls dake dis goontry ! 1 goes back to Hollaud !” Conversations. —“Have you got a dol lar, Sam '(” “No, I han’t, Bill, that’s a fact—if it would save your life.” “Cause Jim Thorn wanted me to pay you one, and I have got nothing smaller than a two.” “O, ah—well, perhaps I can find just one, come to think of it, that I did not spend it this morning for wood.” Sam searched his wallet, found his dollar and handed it to Bill “Well, now, Sam, that’s clever—l’ll hand you the two the very next time we meet, if l happen to have so much on hand.

Perhaps no one medi cine is so universally JfF required by every jfw body as a cathartic, nor was ever any be- V "’-er . fore so universally , 3gU adopted into use, in 1 /\ Jsiol every country and (gimsft f among all classes, as V s -g j this nuld lmt efficient Ga-. purgative Mill. The obvious reason is, that it is a more relia • • . ble and far more ef fectual remedy tfian any other. Those who have tried it, know that it cured them; those who have not, know that it cures theirneighbors and friends; and all know that what it does once it does al ways that it never fails through any fault or neg gleotof its composition. We have thousands upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable euros of the following complaints, but such cures are known in every neighborhood, and we need not publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions m all climates; containing neither calomel norany deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take, while being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their uso in any quantity. They operate by their powerful influence on tho internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy action remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de rangements as are the first origin of disease. Minute directions are given in the wrapper on the box, for the following complaints, which these Mills rapidly cure: For Djiipepda or Indigestion. Ustleiss. ness, .languor and I.omn of Appetite, they should be taken moderately to stimufate the stom ach, and restore its healthy tone and action. For JLiver Complaint and its various symp toms, Bilious lloatlaclie, Sick Head ache, Jaundice or Cireen Sickness, Bil ious Colic and Bilious Fevers, they should be Judiciously takeii for each case, to correct the diseased action or remove the obstructions which cause it. For Dysentery or Diarrhoea, hut one mild dose is generally required. For Hheumatiem, Clout, Gravel, Pal pitation of the Heart, Pain in the Bide, Dack and I.oins, they should he contin uously taken, as required, to change the diseased action of the system. With such change those complaints disappear. For Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings they should be taken in large and frequent doses to produce the effect of a drastic purge. For Suppression a large dose should be taken as it produces the desired effect by sym pathy. Asa Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to promote digestion and relieve the stomach. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite, awl invigorates the system. Hence it is often ad. vanfageous where no serious derangement exists. One who feels tolerably well, often finds that a dose of these Mills makes him feel decidedly bet ter, from their cleansing and renovating effect on the digestive apparatus. Dr. dr. C.

Ayer’s Ague Cure, For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fe ver, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or .Bilious Fe ver, &c., and indeed all the affections which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic poisons. ■ p'J No one remedy is louder wB B 9 called for by tho necessities of the American people than H Iraf i a sure and safe cure for -JO_ l>vcr and Ague. Snell a we are now enabled to offer, v with a perfect certainty that it will eradicate the disease, and with assur ance, founded on proof, that no harm can arise from its use in any quantity. That which protects from or prevents this disorder must be. of immense service in tho communities where it prevails. Prevention is better than cure; for the patient escapes tho risk which he must run in violent attacks of this baleful distemper. This “ CliitE” expels the miasmatic poison of Fever ami Agnn from tho system, and prevents the develop ment of the disease, If taken on the first approach of its premonitory symptoms. A great superiority of this remedy over any other ever discovered for the speedy and cer tain cure of Intemltterits is, that it contains no Quinine or mineral; consequently it pro duces no quinism or other injurious effects whateverupon the constitution. Those cured by it are left ns healthy as if they had never had tho disease. Tcvcr and Ague is not alone the con sequence of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders arise from its irritation, among which are IWurtilgiM, IIIk-iihiu. ti>u, Gout, Headache, niinilui'na, TiKUhachc, Earache, Catarrh. Astli msi, I'aliiltatlon, E’ainful Affection of tl* hpleen, Hysterics, Pain in the Poneli. Colic, Paralysis, and derango ment of the Stomach, all of which, when originating in this cause, put on the inter mittent type, or become periodical. This “Ctiui:” expels the poison from the blood, ami consequently cures them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to immigrants ami persons travelling or temporarily residing in tho malarious districts. If taken occasion ally or daily while exposed to the infection, that will be excreted from the system, and cannot accumulato in sufficient quantity to ripen into disease. Hence it Is even more valuable Tor protection than cure; and few will ever suffer from Intennitlents If they avail themselves of the protection this rem edy affords. For Liver Complaints, arising from torpid ity of the Liver, it, Is an excellent remedy, stimulating the Liver into healthy activity, and producing man>dKdy remarkable cures, where other medicines fail.
