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.

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.

[Judge Tilghman. j There is a certam gentleness of spirit and manners extremely engaging in a young woman ; not that indiscriminate at tention, that unmeaning simper, which smiles on all alike. This arises either from an affection ofsoftness, or from per fect insipidity. The teeth of a very talkative ladv be ing leose, she asked Signor Respini, a celebrated dentist, what was the cause.— He answered, it did proceed from de vio lent shocks her ladyship did give dem wid her tongue. j London contains a population of twelve I hundred thousand inhabitants, Paris eight | hundred thousand, and New-York about ' two hundred thousand; yet in each of these cities there are Twelve Daily j Newspapers.

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 !

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.
