On A steep bill-tide to nil airs that blow Open, and open to tbe varying sky, Smiles our small cottage home, which tranquilly Catohet morn’s earliest and eve’s latest glow,. Here, far from worldly strifes and pompous show, Tbe peaceful seasons glide benignly by, Fulfil their missions and calmly die At waves on quiet shores when winds are low j Fields, lonely paths, the one small glim mering rill That twinkles like a wood-fay’s mirthful eye ’Neath tbe moist bay-leaves—clouds fan tastical That float and ohange at tbe light breeses’ will; To me, thus lapped in sylvan luxury, Aro moro than death of kings or empires’ fall. ' AFTER. BY GKORGE COOrEft. After tho Bbower, the tranquil sun ; After tbe snow, the emerald leaves ; Silver stars when the day is done; After the harvost, golden sheaves. After the clouds, the violot sky ; After the tempest, the lull of waves; Quiet woods when the winds go by; After the battle, peaceful graves. After the knell, the wedding bells; After the bud, the radiant rose ; Joyful greetings from sad farewells ; Aftet our weeping, sweet repose. After tbe burden, tho blissful meed ; After the flight, the downy nest; After the furrow, the waking seed; After tho shadowy river—rest. Rail Road Schedules.

In India, Afries and China, where this dreadful disease is ever moro or loss prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered by the natives, as well is Es. ropean residents in those climates, a SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic for the Stomaeb.it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve is. vero cases of INDIGESTION, and it s often a perfect cure for DYSPEPSIA, in its molt sggravated forms. Its tonic tai stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigor and action, render it a most effec tual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, ulei used according to directions. For external applications, it je unsur passed by any medical preparation. Rheumatism and Neuralgic Affection! ire quickly relieved and often cured by it. Any Soreness in the Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its application. It cures in stantly the most violent TOOTHACHE. It should always be kept near at band, to be used in cases of severe BURNS or SCALDS. If applied immediately, accord in g to directions, it will give instant relief and prevent blistering. It i* peculiarly adapted to the wants of SEAMEN, and persons making sea Toy. ages, and no vessel should sail withonts supply of it.
