HOME AT LAST.

Ye're home al laal I Had home ia thia—
All lorn without, all cold within;
The adder here might lurk and htaa,
Her poiaonoua web the spider sum—
Buttherc'a no fire Ui warm, nor light;
And eretwv-a are yawning wide.
Through which the atom, thia freezing night.
May lay you stiffened aide by aide!
And yet thia wayward ehild had been
By many a gorgeous lionae— and pant

MURDER WILL OUT.
Many of our readera will remember, that
some inoiitha since, the ntululated body of a
mini was diac ivered, concealed in the trunk of
n hollow tree, ill Jones county ; and that from
the marks of violence upon hi* person, it was
clearly demonstrated he had met his fate at the
hand of some brutal assassin. The body of
•he murdered man was recognized, from his
apparel and other circumstance*, as that of n
pedlar of jewelry, hy the name of Isaacs, who
had but n short lime previous, left Macon, in
the persuit of his vocation. All endeavors to
diocover the perpetrators of the diabolical net
had proved unavailing, anti the dark deed wus
passing from reiiiemheranre; until, as we learn
a communication was received hy the Gover
nor during the past week, from the Mayor of
! harleftton, enclosing the confrnrtion of a man
named Henry Jones, who acknowledges him
self to have witnessed the murder ami to have
received a portion of the good* of which tlte
pedlar was despoiled. He iinplit'ntesasa prin
cipal in tho murder, a ventriloquist hy the name
of t-owles, and a man whose name Ita thinks
was Dickerson, who hml employed him to
carry tltem about the country to tin*, places
where they were to give exhibitions. Jones
awaits tlte requisition of the Governor, in the
Charleston prison, ‘l'lte other two have not
been arrested. Federal Union.

Citizens of North nod South America ;
To Louis Offon Gnelicke, M. it. of Germany,
(Europe,) liehing* the imperishable honor of adding
new and precious doctrine to the science of medi
cine,— doe trine, which, though vehemently oppos'd
l>y ninny of tiie faculty (of which he is a valuable
member,) he proves to be ns well founded in truth, as
any doctrine of Holy Writ, —a doctrine, ution the
verity of which are suspended the lives of millions of
our race, and which he lioldly challenge* his oppo
ses to refute, viz.. Consumption iss disease always
occasioned by adtsordered stale, of tile Vis Vtt (or
Life-Principle) of the human body— secretly
linking in tiie system for years, before there is the
least complaint of the lunrufi —and wiiich may be
as certainly, though nut so quirkiy, cured as a com
mon rolil or a simple it. attache. An invaluably pre
cious doctrine this, as it imparts an important lesson
to the apparently healthy of both sexes, tract,mg
them that this insidious foe may be an unobserved
inmate of their “clayey house*,” even while they
imagine themselves secura from ilsattark*, leaching
them tlmt the great lor ret in the art of preserving
health is to plucl: out the disease while in (lie blade,
and not watt till the full-grown ear.
Appended below arc a few certificates of cure*
from the extremely numerous list that has tieen sent
to the proprietor ; mid from the respectability of the
sources from which they emanate, the most skeptical
cannot doubt of tha wonderful effects of this medi
cine.
Post Office, Kingston, N. Y July 21, IB3H.
Dr. Howland Sir—Thr effects of the German San
ative are great in thia place. One woman thnl was
in a deep Consumption, and who itad been in contin
ued night sweat* for seven months, now considers
herself well. Site took no other medicine but the
Hanaiive. Another cane—a man that was taken
bleeding nt the Lungs till he could not raise himself
in his lied, has liecn restored to perfect health by the
Sanative. JOHN V TILBURGII, P. M.

Bir—l hare sold all the Sanative and want two
packages more immediately. It has performed a re
markable cure of palpitation of the heart, and the in
dividual says it is the best medicine ever offered to
the American people—although the Drictors aretry
ing to put it down. 1( B WILLIAMS!, P M *
Post Office,; North Eaton, Ohio, July 2,1838,
Sir—l am entirely out of the Matchless Sanative,
and have hourly calls for it—many from a distance
of ‘JO or 30 miles—in which case* people are much
disappointed in not bring able to obtain it. They
•cent wilting to give any price for it, and I could have
sold the past week more than one hundred dollars
worth of it, had it Iteen on hand. It ia truly a grra
medicine Many in this vicinity are fast recovering
from the consumption by the use of it.
D. C. WILMOT, P M.

Dear Sir—The Matrhlrss Sanative sells well and
with signal sneers*. One case—a young ntnn, in
the last stages of Consumption, given over by his
physician, hn* been taking it only a few weeks and
is now’ able to walk and ride out. Before lie look the
Sana ivo he was unnhle to get out of bed and his
death was hourly ex|tected. But to the astonishment

Kir—A most wonderful cure has lately tieen effect
ed, through the virtues of Dr. Goclirk’s Sanative, in
the ease of an elderly gentleman, who was far gone
and wasted away in t. onsumption, and considered
past recovery hy his family man. He is now, com
paratively speaking, a well malt. I saw him myself
a few days since, in company with his wife, Starting
on a journey !o the western part of this Slate. He ;
ascribes bis escape from the very jaws of death, and
Ins recovery to liealth solely to the astonishing vir
tues of the Marehless Sanative. He is a man pos
