FRIDAY MORNINiI Oct. *. 18M
THE IiraHIRY.
BT C«mn MCKtT.
Tell me, y* *h(«4 wind*.
That round <ny pathway roar.
Do t* not know s ttno spot
whare aortal* weep no mom?
Some Inn* nail pleasant <l*ll,
Rant tallay in Ik* wont.
Where, free from toil an.l pain,
The weary *«ul may real ?
The Inatl wind dwindled to a whisper low.
And sighed far pity as it answer'd •* No!"
I*ll me, thou mighty deep.
Where hillawi round me play,
Knnw'st thou sum* favor'd spot,
Soma island far away,
Whare weary man may find
The blia* for which Jie sighs,
Where sorrow never lives.
Friendship sever dies *
The load waves, rolling in perpetual II"a.
Plopp'd f«r awhile, and sigh'd, to answer
"No!"
And thon, serenes! moon.
That with atieh holy taco.
Dost look a pen the earth,
Asleep in night's embraeo,
Tell me, U all thy round,
Hast thon not seen some spot
Where miserable man
Might find a happier lot ?
Behind a cloud the moon withdrew in wo.
And a voice sweet, but still, responded “No!”
Tell me, my secret soul,
Oh ! tell me, Hope and Faith,
Is there no resting place
From sorrow, sin, and death ?
Is there no happy spot
Where mortals may be blcss’d
Where grief may find a balm,
And weariness a rest ?
Faith, Hope, and hove—best boons to mor
tals given.
Waved their bright wings, and whisper’d,
“ Yes, in Heaven !”
Nkw Fuel is Esobasn.—A. company
has bees formed in London for the
manufacture of new fuel from coal
waste. The refuse coal is mixed with
common farina, alkali, and hot water, in
the proportion of eight pounds of farina,
three pounds of British alkali, and
twenty-five gallons of water, to the tun,
and the com[>osition is kneaded by two
broad r dlcrs in a revolving mill. The
mixture is then turned out hv a hinged
shovel into a shoot, whence it drops
into a series of small buckets, dropping
their contents down the shoots into
moulding machines, where the mixture
is compressed into bricks.
As these fuel bricks are shaped, they
are laid on open iron-strap trays in
small trucks, which, when full, are run
on rails intotnonels, closed at both ends
by iron shutters, and there they are
dried rapidly by hot air driven in by
revolving fans.
The quality of this fuel is said to be
equal to that of coal iu ordinary use,
and it is excellent for gas purposes.
The company get a good profit by sell
ing it for 17 shillings ($1.50) a ton—
about $1.50 cheaper than coal.
Defending the Tilters. —The local
editor of the Poughkeepsie Daily Press
has come to the defence of the tilting
hoops. He likes them, and is not afraid
to say so, emphatically:
Show us the man that does not like
hoops—tilting hoops—blest invention of
Venus—graceful invention —delightful
conception—fitful permitter of glimpses
—flashes of things divine —white, grace
ful, symmetrical, joyous, drifting away,
swimming away, gliding away —vanish-
ing from the eager, devouring eye. So
tilt white elands upon the summer
heaven; so through their fleecy skirts
the sun-burst shows. Show us the man
that does not like hoops—tilting hoops
—and we will show you a man that does
not like rifts, vistas, openings into
Paradise, who would shut out the glori
ous vision of his fellow man, and hid
him grope below, nor tarn his rapturous
gaze to this above. Hoops—tilling
hoops—true cincture of Venus—un
fabled zone of the foam horn goddess.
“In them is every art and every charm.
To win the wisest and the coldest warm.”
Show ns tlio feminine who does not
like hoops—tilting hoops—and we will
show you a woman whose feet are titan
in, whose limbs are elephantine, or about
ihe shape and size of a bean pole;
whose ankles are terrible, whose charms
are seen by the eye of faith alone—Plu
tonian faith.
Oh! tilting hoop—kind disclosure—
many may spurn thee. Snarling old
bachelors, withered old maids and
women who will never feel again the
sweet spring-time thrill ol their lost in
stincts, may scout thee—the deformed
and the transformed may ignore thee—
the lame, the halt and the blind may
jeer thee, but we —we still will love thee,
still cling to thee, still Bound thy praise
at morn and welcome eve. And oil, as
we see glimmering like the white win
ter moon through clouds, those beauti
ful, animated parian shafts, whose deli
cious proportions were fashioned by the
(tpirit of beauty, proclaim anew onr
thanks and our gratitude to the inven
tor of tilting hoops.
Ikfokmaiio.v Wanted. —Tc following
we find in the Griffin Jlerahl:
While tlio militia werg in camps near
Griffin, between Mr. Manly's anil Mrs.
Jbilly's, a soldier died m camps, and
was buried in the edge of the woods,
lieur Mrs. Duffy’s.
Hi nee the L. M. Association was or
ganized, the grave has been reported to
the Executive Committee. They have
had the remains taken up and placed in
the soldiers' cemetry. This may reach
the eye of gome who assisted in burying
him, or who knew him in his sickness;
if so, please give tlio L. M. Association
information of his name ami Uugin.ent.
Address Mrs. Hugh Morrow, Corres
ponding Secretary L. M. A.
Papers that (eel an interest in our
cause, please copy.
Mrs- Isaac Wiksiiii", President.
Head this Attentively. —The an
nexed paragraph should he read by
every ouu who neglects to take a paper,
published in his town, or in the one
nearest his place of residence:
lireatlics there a man with soul so
dead—wlm never to himself hath said
1 will my paper take—both for my own
ami family's sake. If such there be let
him repent—and have the paper to him
sent—and if he’d pass a happy winter —he
in advance should pay the printer.

Tits Widow.—ln the groat annual
exhibition of picture* in Pari*, there is
this fear a portrait of a lady with the
simple title of “The Widow" in the
catalogue. There is a terrible fact con
nected with this picture, and it is thus
related by a correspondent:
The lady is the Countess D , who,
although only twenty-four years of ago,
has been twice widowed. She is said
to be of humble birth, but when only
sixteen yenrs of nge, her great beauty
attracted the attention of the Marquis
D , who married her. On leaving
the church, however, the Marquis was
nksass anted by some obscure rival, and
the lady was left a widow with an im
mense lurtune. The Marquise retired
to a convent, where she remained until
her twentieth year. She thon made a
journey to various parts of Europe, and
visited, among other places, St. Peters
burg, where one of the most wealthy
b tvards of Russia placed at her feet his
heart, his diamonds, and his millions.
Tho marriage was celebrated in the
house of tho bridegroom’s mother, in a
remote part of Russia, some distance
from her own estate. The newly mar
ried couple left for their new home iu a
magnificent sleigh. On the way tin y
were attacked by wolves, and the Count,
in trying to defend his bride, made a
false step, fell out of the sleigh into the
snow, and was immediately devoured
by the wolves. The horses, mad with
terror, dashed off with immense speed,
and did not stop till they arrived at the
-Count’s chateau, which was brilliantly
illuminated for the reception of the
newly-married couple.
How Mucn Pork from a Bushel of
Corn.—A correspondent of the l’rairie
Farmer answers this question as fol
lows : “A series of carefully conducted
experiments have established the fol
lowing rule upon this subject: A bushel
of good raw, unground dry corn, fed to
a middling good breed, in comfortable
quarters, without much sun, and not
allowed to root, before cold weather,
will prodnSfi ten pounds of pork, and if
the breed is vety good, fifteen. The
same amount of fermented corn meal,
one-half more, and if cooked also, about
three fourths more than the first named
hence it is easy to find how much pora
should bring to correspond with the
price of corn. Take, for instance, raw
corn, the most common way it is fed ;
pork at five cents per pound, is equal to
corn at fifty cents per bushel, and so
on, above or below, in the same ratio.
The good of our farms and pockets de
mand that we sell our oats and corn in
beef, mutton, pork, butter, cheese, and
wool.”
A Daily Mail to England.— lt is
the intention of the English Govern
ment to establish a daily mail between
Great Britain and this country-. The
cable, from its high rate of tariff, though
of immense benefit to those having
trans-Atlantic business, and the money
to spare to pay the price of a message,
is of no immediate benefit to the large
mass of people who correspond with
parties in Europe. It is proposed to send
a swift mail steamer from Liverpool
every day in the week, by which letters
and newspapers will be conveyed. In
order to make this of real benefit to
the public, the postage, which is now
twenty-four cents for each letter weigh
ing less thnn half an ounce, will be
reduced to at least less than half tlmt
amount. This, however, will probably
require the joint action of United
States.—AY. Louis Dispatch.
Well Said. —Some one writes both
gracefully and forcibly, as follows : I
would be giad to see more parents un
derstand that when they spend money
judiciously to improve and adorn the
house and the grounds around it. they
are in effect paying their children a pre
mium to stay at home, as much as pos
sible, to enjoy it; but that when they
spend money unnecessarily in fine
clothing and jewelry for their children,
they are paying them a ptemium to
spend their time away from home—that
is, in those places where they can at
tract the most attention and make the
most display.
Bad Expression. —ls there is one
expression which sounds worse than any
other, when coming from the mouth of
children, it is “I wont I’’ especially when
in answer to some request or command
of parents. It always indicates a bad
temper and disposition, which, if per
mitted to go unchecked, lead to unhap
piness and misery. Besides, they de
base the features, and make those who
indulge in them cross-featured and ill
favored.
Keep God's Grace. —ls we keep
God's grace that He giveth ns—if we
do not continually and daily reform our
selves, and with all diligence fashion
our lives after His life, it is but right
that we lose again tiiat which we have
received. But if we abide in Him
through faith, then hard and unprofita
ble things a ,- e light and possible to us ;
lor iu Him that strengthened us we may
do all things.
Ihe Sabbath. —When it is said that
“the Sabbath was made for man,” the
meaning is, that it was made for his use
and benefit. It does not mean that he
has a right to use it or not; nor yet that
it is his in such a senso that he has a
right to put it to whatever use he
plenscs. It still supposes that tho Sab
bath has its appropriate uses, nud that it
is the duty of every individual to ascer
tain what those uses are, and avail him
self of them..
Prayer. —Prayer is ever profitable ;
at night it is our covering ; in tho morn
ing it is our armor. Prayer should he
the key of tho day, und the lock of the
night. Prayer sanctities all our actions.
He is tested in God’s service and pro
tection who makes it his first work to be
enrolled by prayer, under the standard
of the Almighty. Ho carries an assist
ant angel with him for his help, who
begs his benediction from above : and
without it be is luma and uuarme I.

Killer.
We bog to call the attention of the pub
lic to this long tested aod unrivalled
FAMILY MEDICINE.
The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegeta
ble compound ; and while it is a most e -
cieDt Remedy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe
Medicine even in the most unskillful hands.
FOR SUMMER COMPLAINT,
Or any other form of bowel disease in chil
dren or adults, it is an almost certain cure,
and has, without doubt, been more success
ful in curing the various kinds of
CHOLERA
than any other known remedy, or even the
most skillful physician. In India, Africa
and China, where this dreadlul disease is
ever more or less prevalent, the
PAIN KILLER
is considered by the natives, as well as Eu
ropean residents in those climates, a SURE
REMEDY. Asa Tonic for the Stomach, it
is uDriTalled. A few doses will relieve se
vere cases of INDIGESTION, and it is
often a perfect cure for
DYSPEPSIA,.
in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and
stimulating properties, arousing tbc system
to vigor and action, render it a most effec
tual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, when
used according to directions.
For external applications, it is unsur
passed by any medical preparation.
Rheumatism and Neuralgic Affections are
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 he kept near at hand,
to be used in cases of severe BURNS or
SCALDS. If applied immediately, accord
ing to directions, it will give instant relief,
and prevent blistering.
It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of
SEAMEN, and persons making sea voy
ages, and no vessel should sail without a
supply of it. One Captain writes us: “I
have ijiado several voyages—often with emi
grants, and though I keep a good Medicine
Chest, and I have several times had a good
deal of sic kness on board, I have found the
PAIN KILLER so efficient in all cases, as
to entirely preclude the use of all other
Medicines.”
