<‘l>o not Plirc'k tlie Flowers;
THEY ARE SACRED TO THE MAD.”
An inscription similar tc the foregoing is aeen in
many parts of the Catholic B.nying-gwimd,
Botanic gardens,Cork,
Oh ! spare the flowers, ti»e fair young Cowers,
The free glad gift the summer brings;
Brigltf •children of the sun and showers.
Here do they rise, earth’s offering-.
Rich be the dew upon you shed, —
Green ce the bough that o’er you « avcs, —
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 f
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 thou no loved one lying low —
No broken reed of earthly trust ?
Hast thou not felt the bitter woe
With which we render dust to dust ?
Thou hast! and in one cherished spot.
Unseen, unknown to earthly eyes
Within their heart the unforgot
Entombed in silent beauty lies !
Memory, and faith, and love, so deep
No earthly storm can reach it more—
Affection that hath ceased to weep.
These flourish in thy bosom’s core !
Spare, then, the flowers I With gentle tread,
Draw near, remembering what thou art, —
For blossoms sacred to the dead
Are ever springing in the heart!

A REAL BLESSING TO MOTHERS.
DR. W. 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 Sj’rup Immediately gives ease, by opening the
pores and healing the gums ; thereby preventing
convulsions, fevers, &c. Sold only at Dr. Wm.
Evans ’ Medical Office, 100 Chatham street. New
York, where the Doctor may be consulted on all
diseases of children.
PROOF POSITIVE OF THE EFFICACY OF
Dr. EVANS’ SOOTHING SYRUP—To the Agent
of Dr. Evans’ Soothing Syrup : Dear Sir—The
*reat benefit afforded to my suffering infant by
reur Soothing Syrup, in a case of protracted and
mnful dentition, must convince every feeling pa
enthow essential an early application of such an
* ivaluable medicine is to relieve infant misery and
torture. My infant, w’hen teething, experienced
mch acute sufferings, that it was attacked with
convulsions, and my wife and family supposed that
death would soon release the babe from anguish,
till we procured a bottle of your Syrnp ; 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 continuing 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.
