“ Teach ‘Hi to Feel Another'•
AanaWoe."
Sweet ii the Murmur of the gale
That whispers through the Summer's
groVe;
Soft D the tone of Friendship's tale,
And softer still the voice of love;
Yet softer far the tears that flow
To mourn—to soothe another’s woe.
Richer than riehest diadem
That glitters on the monarch’s brow ;
Purer than earth's purest gem.
Or all that wealth and art can show—
The drop that swells in pity’s eye,
The pearl of sensibility.
Is there a spark in earthly mould,
Fraught with one ray of heavenly fire ?
Does man one trait of virtue hold,
That even angels must admire ?
That spark is pity's radiant glow;
That trait the tear for other’s woe.
To sink in feature's last decay,
iV’thout a friend to mourn the fall—
To mark its embers die away,
Deplored by none—unwept by all—
This—this is sorrow’s deadliest curse,
Nor hate, nor hell can form a worse 1

CHOLERA.
A CERTAIN CURE
For this Disease may be
found in the use of
PERRY DAVIS’
<BStMir<P' VEGETABLE
Pain JKiller,
St. Louis, Mo., June 14, 1849.
Mr. A T. Woodtoord, Agent of Perry Davie’
Pain Killer :
Dfah Sin : I feel it a duty I owe to tho
public, to make known the value of Perry
Davis’ Pain Killer, and my experience in
using it for some of the complaints for
which it is highly recommended. In April
last, on your recommendation, I purchased
a one dollar bottle of you for pains with
which I have long been afflicted, and made
use of it on my trip down to New Orleans,
with the most gratifying and beneficial
effects. On my return to this city, the
Cholora made its appoarance among some
of my passengers. I made use of the Pain
Killer, having no other remedy on board,
and, to my surprise and gratification, found
it gave immediate relief! On my arrival
in St. Louis, I called on you and got four
large bottles, and stated to you my confi
dence in it as an infallible Cholera remedy,
and remarking to you that I wanted no
other Cholera remedy on my boat. I made
use of the four bottles on my trip to New
Orleans and back, for Cholera and some
other complaints for which it is recom
mended, and met with the most'astonishing
success ; when I ordored from you six more
one dollar bottles. Since then I have
made two more trips to New Orleans and
back; and on my previous trip up I had
more than
SEVENTY CASES OF CHOLERA
on board, when the PAIN KILLER was
immediately used with toe most astonishing
results. In all cases where it was used in
time, it gave relief in a very short time;
and I can, with confidence, say to the pub
lic, that in alt the first stages of Cholera,
whon taken in time, it is, in my opinion, an
infallible remedy! and after a fair trial
with it for several weeks, and lor four
trips to New Orleans and back, and using
it for Cholera and other complaints for
which it is roeommonded, no consideration
whatever would induce me to leave port
without a good supply—believing it to be a
medicine that no officer of a boat or aDy
family would be without a single day after
using one bottle; believing it to be the
most valuable family medicine known to
the world for all tho different complaints
for which it is recommended.
P. S.—Please send me six large bottles
for this trip.
J. M. Broadwell,
Captain Steamer Adriatic.
I most cordially unite with Capt. Broad
wo'.l in recommending Perry Davis’s Pain
Killer to the public, having myself been
severely attacked with the Cholera, and
found relief in a few hours by using the
Pain Killer, and have myself administered
it to more than fifty persons attacked with
tho Cholera, and whon used in tirno, a cure
was effected in a few hours, and take pleas
ure iu recommending it to the public as an
invaluable medicine, that no individual
should be without a single hour.

Clerk Steamer Adriatic.
