* e* '‘Do not PltrcV the Flowers; THEY ARE SACRED TO THE DEAD.” i «An inscription similar to the foregoing is aeen in manj- parts of the Catholic Buiymg-g«!und, botanic gardens,Cork, Oh ! spare the flowers, tl»e fair young Cowers, The free glad gift the summer brings; Brigluf of the sun and showers. Here do they rise, earth’s tie ring . Rich be the dew upon you shed, — Green ce the bough that o’er you waves, — Weariless watchers by the dead, Unblenchiag dwellers ’midst the graves! Oh, spare the flowers ? their sweet perfume Upon the wandering zephyr cast. And lingering o’er the lonely tomb, Is like the memory of the past. They flourish freshly, though beneath Lie the dark dust and creeping worm ; They speak of Hope, they speak of Faith, They smile, like rainbows through the storm ! Pluck not the flowers—the sacred flowers ! Go where the garden’s treasures spread,— Where strange bright blossoms deck the bowers, And spicy trees their odours shed. There pluck, if thou delight’st, indeed, To shorten life so brief as theirs ; But here the admotion heed — A blessing on the hand that spares ? Pluck not the flowers ! In days gone by A beautiful belief was felt, That fairy spirits of the sky Amidst the trembling blossoms dwelt. Perhaps the dead have many a guest. Holier than any that are ours ; Perhaps their guardian angels rest Enshrined amidst the gentle flowers ! Hast Uiou no loved one lying low- No broken reed of earthly trust? Hast t*hou not felt the bitter woe Wilh which we render dust to dust ? Thou hast! and in one cherished spot. Unseen, unknown to earthly eyes Within their heart the unforgot EntomLgjd in silent beauty lies ! Memory, and faith, and love, so deep No earthly storm can reach it more— AJlection that hath ceased to weep, flourish in thy bosom’s core ! Spare, then, the flowers ! With gentle tread, j Draw near, remembering what thou art, — For blossoms sacred to the dead Are ever springing in the heart! COMMERCIAL.

EVANS’ CELEBRATED SOOTHING SYRUP, for Children Cutting their Teeth.— This infallible remedy has preserved hundreds of chil dren, when thought past recovery, from convul sions. As soon as the Syrup is rubbed on the gums, the child will recover. The preparation is so innocent, so efficacious and so pleasant, that no child will refuse to let its gums be rubbed with it When infants are at the age of four months, though there is no appearance of teeth, one bottle of the Syrup should be used on the gums, to open the pores. Parents should never be without the Syrup in the nursery where there are young children*; for if a child wakes in the night with pain in the gums, the Syrup immediately gives ease, by opening the pores and healing the gums; thereby preventing convulsions, fevers, &c. Sold only at Dr. Wm. Evans’ Medical Ojflce, 100 Chatham street, New York, where the Doctor rr ay be consulted on all diseases of children.

My infant, when teething, experienced mch acute sufferings, that it was attacked witli convulsions, and my wife ard family supposed that death would soon release the babe from anguish, till we procured a bottle of your Sj'rnp; which as soon as applied to the gums, a wonderful change was produced, and after a few applications the child displayed obvious relief, and by continuiug in its use, I am glad to inform you the child has com pletely recovered, and no recurrence of that awful complaint has since occurred; the teeth are ema nating daily and the child enjoys perfect health, I give you my cheerful permission to make this acknowledgment public, andwill gladly give any information on this circumst; nee.
