is composed of white fanners, who are
peaceable and industrious. There lias been
a great desire for the immigration of North
ern men, from the capitalist to the laborer,
which lias begun to take place.
This valley, it is apparent, is not dependent
upon protective tariffs. It needs nothing but
continued practical Northern energy and
capital enough to give it a lair start. It will
not therefore need assistance in competing
in the manufacture of iron, since nature lias
endowed it with such extraordinary advan
tages and resources which guarantee its
entire success.

WHO SHOULD MAH NY.
In. the March number of the Herald of
Utfilih, Mrs E. Oates Smith has an article
on choosing a wife, from which we make a
few extracts :
It is not wise to marry a woman ol a dif
ferent religious faith, nor one far removed
from your own social rank, uor nil ignorant
woman.
Do not marry a woman with thin Ibis and
a glib tongue.
Do not marry a sentimental woman, who
is sure to run into the lackadaisical one ; let
her love sentiment, high, noble sentiment,
but bewgre.of the sentimeutal.
Do not marry one of the delicate, die ajvay
women, who are sure to degenerat • into in
valids, and take a pride in the ir feebleness.
Only handsome men and women ought to
marry. Those having a menu sanain corporc
sano. Let others look the matter squarely
in the face, and admit that their imbecilities,
their diseases, their unhandsome looks,
their discordant minds, ought not to be
perpetuated ; and let them go to work nian
iully to make the best of themselves by
eschewing marriage. Let them be honest,
hearty old maids and bachelors, earning
money for the good ol others, teaching ami
farming, and helping on good and whole
some ideas.
The true, good, and handsome men and
women adapted to marriage ought to be
treated with distinguished honor in the
world, as benefactors of the race, as fore
shadowing that beautiful future when we
shall be hardly lower than the angels, and
covered with glory and honor
One reason why it is well to marry a
pretty woman in preference to a plain one,
is that the former is more free from jealousy
ami discontent than the latter, being better
satisfied with herself, she is more likely to
be pleased with others.
It is better to marry a full sized woman
than a little one, for the meanness of statue
is apt to go through the character also. A
certain roundness of contour; a composure
and soli poise, devoid of heaviness and slug
gishness ; an elastic buoyancy, a bright
uppish look, more of pride than vanity ; a
clear, open eye, and pure, child like smile;
hands and feet wel 1 proportioned, not too
small, are outlines easily discriminated, and
constitute a sale, reliable character. A
cheerful woman, one who will not make
mountains of mole bills, who can find some
thing bright and beautiful everywhere ; who
has pretty feminine resources, and knows
how to devise ways and means to make others
happy aud content about her, is a jewel
of inestimable worth.
The voice (not for singing) is a great
indicator of character. Swedenborg says
the angels know the state of a man by bis
voice, beware of those high, sharp tones
of voice, as well as the too low and hesi
tating ; the first belongs to a shrew, and the
last to deceit and imbecility.
Cheerfulness of temper, candor that re
jects every species of falsehood, and owns to
the truth at any peril; tenderness to be
detected by a fondness for and faithful care
of pets, rather than by outward expressions ;
purity, instinct in thought and action : in
telligence to appreciate all that is noble and
good ; anil health, sound and elastic, are
traits to insure duty a.-; a wife and happiness
in a household.

ministration of the public expenditure, of
the complete extirpation of the principles

proper practical relations with the United

Perry Davis’ Pain Killer.--Wc have often
spoken of this great medicine in terms of very
high praise, and wc have as often felt that all wo
could say in its favor would not do it full justice.
It is one of those medicines of which wc can
speak—and speak decisively—from experience ;
for wc have repeatedly taken it, and invariably
with the best results and greatest satisfaction.
Wo always keep it on hand, ready for an emer
gency, and wo regard it not only-as one of tlic
very best medicines in use for various ills, but
as one of the cheapest, also. Its cost, by the
way—that is, the cost ot the ingredients of which
it is composed—has been considerably increased,
but the price of tho medicine has been but very
little advanced. It is not likely that the popu
larity of Davis 1 Pain Killer will in any measure
decrease, or that the demand for it will in the
slightest degree decline, until some other specific
for allaying pain and curing various complaints
for wl ich it is so generally used, shall bo dis
covered, of equal potency with it—of which
there seems to bo but little probability. Asa
remedy for stomach complaints, such as dysen
tery, diarrhoea, etc., the Pain Killer is, without
doubt, unsurpassed, and every where most de
servedly in demand. One, two, or three doses,
of a tcaspoonful each, in a wine glass of milk
and water, with a little sugar, have repeatedly,
within our knowledge, effectually cured serious
trouble of this kind. Judgment should undoubt
edly be used in chocking certain stages of diar
rhoea too suddenly; but taken at the proper
time, the Pain Killer will act like n charm, and
frequently cure when nothing else will.—Provi

R. R. R. Resolvent cures with
astonishing rapidity evc. y form
of Chronic, Scrofulous and Skin
Diseases, and exterminates all
corruption from the human
system.
__ One bottle of Dr. Radway’.-; Renovating Re
solvent contains inore of the active curative
principles of the best Jamaica Sarsaparilla,
(Sarsaparillinn, 1 ) limn Ton o i tho target .la o
bottles of the mixture sold under the same
of Sarsaparilla.
The process adopted by Dr. Radway in
securing extracts (prepared in vacuo,) of
Medicinal Roots, Plants, Herbs, and other
vegetables possessing great curative proper
ties over Scrofula, Chronic, Syphilitic and
all skin diseases, that enters into tho com
position of tho Renovating Resolvent, pro
duces only ONE OUNCE of the pure extract
out of 20 lbs. of the crude roots. The Inert
matter that enters so generally in tho lorse
bottle mixtures and prepared under the offi
cinal or pharmacopeia formula, is, by Dr.
Itadway’s process, cast aside as rubbish.'
One teaspoonful.of the Resolvent is suffi
cient for a dose for all Skin Diseases. Salt
Rheum, Pimples, Blotches, Sores and Erup
tions of the Skin, Humors in the Blood, &c.
One teaspoonful, three times per day, will,
In a few days, make the Blood pure, the Skin
clear, the Eyes bright, the Complexion smooth
and transparent, the Hair strong, and remove
all Sores, Pimples, Blotches, Pustules, Tet
ters, Cankers, &c. t from’ the Head, Face,
Neck, Mouth and Skin. It is pleasant to take,
and the dose is small. f-
The first dose that is taken seizes oil the
disease and commences its work of resolving
away all diseased deposits, Purifying the
Blood, and driving corruption from tho
system. ©

RENOVATING RESOLVENT is the only
remedy that has dissolved calculous concretion.
Its SOLVENT, diuretic, lithonteiptir and
tonic properties exceed that of any medi
cine in the world: it readily aasmiUatcs with
tho fluids, and promotes their exit through
the Kidneys, Ureter and Bladder, removing
calculous obstructions, and correcting all de
rangements of these organs. t
So swift is this remedy in passing into u:res
calation, that it has been detected in the urine in
six minutes after it has been taken ; by adding
to the liquid when cold a few pieces of starch,
then a few drops of nitric acid, the liquid
will change to a blue color. When brick
dust, or a thick white deposit, like the white
of an egg, (albumen,) is detected in the ves
sel, or bloody discharges from the urethra,
or micturating iji drops, accompanied by a
burning or scalding pain—tho RESOL\ ENf
should be used, ami R. R. RELIEF rubbed

RADWAV’S TILLS being au aperiont,
soothing, and lonic laxative, are the only
purgative meJicino safe to administer in
these difficulties; their mild, soothing and
healing properties produce evacuations with
out irritating the mucous membranes of the
bowels, kidneys, ureter, bladder, &c., or
causing straining when at stool.
