ETCHINGS FROM LIFE.
The march of mind—By a Village
Curate.
The mind of the age, ip its marches from town,
Hai halted a while at our village;
filch’d like a gipsey, the brains of each clown,
(Though l cannot say much'for the pillage )
We have'all of its grown most distressingly sage,
In science, finance, and humanity,
And gleam ’mid the stars of this luminous age,
Like fools in the limbo of vanity.
Squire Bumper, my patron, has sold all bis studs,
And taken to prose or finance ;
And Sally, my laundress, discarding her suds,
Is learning, at forty, to dance.
My barber is penning (poetic &r course,)
An anodyne ode upon Lethe;
And Betty the bar-maid, tho’ strong as a horse,
Grows nervous, and quotes Abernethy.
My clerk, is discussing the duties on corn,
With the Sexton, his village Hephestion,
And Jobson, his trade of an ostler forsworn,
Sports “ Hints on the Catholic Question.”'
The publican’s daughters, Miss Sophy and Sue,
Do they stick to the ale-house still 7 Ah no ;
Miss Sophy tho’ red in the face, is a Blue,
Miss Susan insults the piano.
We start a new poet—say once in a week,
Whose thoughts are as black as a hearse;
And scarce e’en a pig in the cholic can squeak,
But his sorrows are chanted in verse !
Alas for our village!—’tis darken’d and blind ;
The age has to ruin consign’ it,
For sense, wit, and wisdom this " march of the
mind,”
Has left in its hurry behind it.
SROM THE UTICA SElfrlNEL.
ORIGINAL ANECDOTE.
During the rivalry between Uiica and
Rechester, a gentleman merchant from
the latter place, was travelling through
Oneida County, being of a humorous turn
on passing a Dutch dwelling, where a
stone oven was heating, which was situat
ed out of doors, at one side of the house,
he felt disposed to hoax the inhabitants.—
He called out “ hallo, the house ! hallo,
the house !’. Out came the Dutchman,
the Dutchman’s wife, the Dutchman’s
three sons, and the Dutchman’s eleven
daughters. He observed to them “ your
oven's on fire.” They all Hew swiftly
around the corner of the house, and the
merchant rode cu enjoying Lhe joke. A
short time since the same gentleman was
travelling to the east in a gig ; the roads
j were uncommonly muddy. He was a-
bout parsing the same farm house but he
j Now, we differ from an authority like the
present with extreme diffidence ; but re
ally with regard to the “ most independent
mode of performing the grand tour, riding
on cowback, we not only doubt, but utter
ly object to the expedieucy of the practice.
Of all the animals we ever bestrode, a cow
is the most uucomfortable and disagreea
ble to ride. The wayword manner in
which she tosses her head, and the rapid
percussions with which she elevates her
extremity, render the seat very insecure ;
and indeed it is ten to one but that in three
minutes the rider is in a position to milk
her, provided she woi^d stand still for
that purpose. The carriage conveniences
so amply described by tne author, appeas
to us to be infinitely preferable to thus
travelling by the via ladea.

PROW THE MORNING COURIER.
EVENING LANDSCAPE,
frhen stars are on the evening’ blue,
And from the white cloud creeps the moon,
With dreaming heart I love to view,
The landscape in her quiet noon.
Afar upon the mountain height,
The rosy blush of twilight fades ;
While glittering in their airy flight,
Moimt upon starry wing—the shades,
Ton wood is silent, and the gleam
Of dew drop darts from flower and leaf,
And to the folded birds—the droain,
Of evening flings its sweet relief.
Qn the dark river’s throbbing breast,
Its glassv scenes the moon-beam weave® ;
While o’er in an uneoneious rest,
Are throng'd in shade the pendant leaves.
And hark! on high swept voices swell,
From zephys in their flight along,
With music lound the woven dell;
Like angels bending there with song.
Nor when the spells of this fair scene.
Repose upon ray lonely heart.
Doth mem’ry wakeful and serene,
Thro’ the dhn vale of time depart,
To where all radiant as this—
My boyhood often wildly rov’d
To where—alas departed bliss !
I knew a guileless one. and loved. C.
AUTUMN.
Leaves arc growing pale—
Sad proofs of Summer’s fleetness ;
Flowers begin to fail
And lose their blooming sweetness :
Chilling vapours brea'he
Their plaintive sighs before us,
And beauty fades from all beneath
The sky that darkens e’er us.
Gh ! that aught so fair
Should for a season perish !
But they have no share
With hope* that mortals cherish ;
Nay ; the flowers shall bloom
With Spring renew their gladness,
And above their transient tomb
Shall leave no trace of sadness.
MATRIMONY. j
Cries Nell to Toni, ’midst matrimonial strife, j
” Cursed be the hour I first became your wife,”
’ 'By all the powers.” said Tom, '• but that’s too j
bad,
You’ve cursed the only civil hour we’ve had.” |
A mail cannot be happy who does not J
forgive the injuries which he may have j

dletovvn Conn. The style of its execu
tion is highly creditable, and worthy of the
subject.
Life is ;i fountain fed by a thousand
streams that petishes if one be dried. It
is a silver eord twisted with a thousand
strings that parts asunder if one be broken.
Frailand thoughtless mortals are surround
ed by innumerable dangers which makes it
much more strange thal they escape so long
than that they almost all perish suddenly
at last. We are encompassed with acci
dents ever ready to crush the mouldering
tenement that we inhabit. The seeds of
disease are planted in our constitution by
the hand o<*nature. The earth and the at
mosphere, whence we draw our life, are
impregnated with death— health is made
to operate its own destruction—the food
that nourishes the body contains the ele
ment of its decay—the soul that animates
it by a vivifying fire tends to wear it out
by its actions—death lurks in ambush a-
bout all our paths.
Notwithstanding this is the truth so pal
pable, and confirmed by daily examples
before our eyes, how little do they lay it
to heart! We see our friends and neigh
bors perishing around us, but how seldom
does it occur to our thoughts that onr knell
perhaps, shall give the next fruitless war
ning to the world !

DR. CHAMBERS’
Remedy Vov lntcmpevauce.
T HE Subscriber, on the decease of the late
Dr. VVm. Chambers, took into his posses
sion the personal estate of the deceased, and
found prepared a large quantity of Doctor Cham
bers’ remedy for intemperance.
He hereby informs the public, that he has dis
posed ofall the Medicine so found, to Dr. James
II. Hurt, aud Mr. Andrew M. Fanning, of this
city.
In making this disposition, the subscriber has
been actuated by a dir-"* regard to the interest ol'
the heirs of the intestate, as w ell as from a wish
to give the most extensive use to the virtues of the
discovery, whatever they may be—and he can
further add with confidence, teat the gentlemen
who will hereafter be the venders of the remedy
for Intemperance, as prepared by the Inventor,
have been intimately connected with Pv. Chain*
bers in his life time—have been bis agents in com
pounding the medicine, atid are acquainted with
its composition.
Sill-anus Miller, Public Administrator, kc.
Er’ The medicine will hereafter be prepared
j and sold by the subscribers, who alone are in
possession of the original Receipe of the inven
tor, at the office of the late Dr. C. in the basement,
story of Rutgers's Medical College in Duane
street, east side of Broadway, and at the Medical
store of Dr. Hart, corner of Broad-way ami
Chamber street, 3 doors from Washington Halt,
New York.
The astonishing success which this remedy has
obtained in restoring habitual inebriates to se-
hriety, has established its virtues beyond all con
tradiction, and supersedes the necessity of any
further comment.
The remedy is as innocent as it is effectual; s>
much so, that itis often given to children in fe
brile complaints, and frequently used as a family
medicine for Dyspepsia, kc.. All that is required,
to ensure its specific effect is to abide strictly by
the directions. It is put up in packages sufficient
for one individual cure, and accompanied with
ample directions for its use, signed in the hand
writing of the subscribers, without which none
are genuine. Wc are induced to adopt this mea
sure, as in consequence of the great celebrity
which Dr. Chambers’ ’medicine has obtained,
there have been, and doubtless will be, maDy spu-
Goidsfas'well as a Grocery Store, and one ofthe j rl ® us “lions. On enclosing to us the usual
