Conrtship and Disappointment.
Ms* Sukey Smith had flaxen hair,
Her daddy had the pewter,
Her eyes were grey, and looked serene,
Upon her favorite suitor.
That *uitor was a jolly youth,
So nimble, blithe and brawuey,
The yellow fever took him off,
One day to California.
Ahd when I heard that he was gone,
“ Its now,” said I, “or never!”
I shaved myse'f and greased my shoes,
And tried to look right clever.
I tfgged myself from top to toe,
And caught and mounted Robin,
But all the way I rode along,
My heart it kept a throbbin.
And when I reached her daddy’s door,
It still kept on a thumpin’,
But when I saw that heavenly maid
It kinder stopped a jumpin’.
’Tvvas half past ten, when at her feet
I knelt, and yet ere dinner,
Wi tn honied speech and winning ways,
I had contrived to win her.
Some months elapsed—to set the day
I now began to pr,ess her :
I urged, entreated, plead in vain
In vain did I caress her.
“While matters were thus cross’d and pil'd,
My clothes all growing seedy,
My rival from the mines returned,
Still for my Sukey greedy.
I saw him kinder sidle up,
And slip liis arms around her,
When—heavens and earth ’. she let him kiss
Those precious lips! Confound her!
I told her that I was surprised—
My eyes had sure deceived me—
And asked her to renew her vows,
And from suspense relieve me.
When, don’t you think, the tarnal gal,
Her thumb upon her smeller;
Iler fingers wriggled as she said—
“ Can’t come it, little feller
Well Answered.
Soon after the revolutionary war, a brave yankee
officer, a former captain in the service—happened to
be at St. Petersburg, in Russia, and while there, was
invited to dineat the table of a distinguished merchant.
‘There was a large number of guests at the table, and
among tbe rest an English lady, who was anxious to
appear as one of the ‘knowing ones.’ On understand
ing that an American was sitting near her, she ex
pressed to one of her friends a determination to quiz
him. Sho fastened on him like a tigress, making
numerous inquiries touching our manners, hahits, cus
toms, dress, modes of life, education, amusements, &c.
To all these queries the officer gave courteous answers,
whioh seemed to satisfy all the company with the ex
ception of the lady herself. She was determined not
to be satisfied, and she went on : “ Have the rich peo
ple in your country any carriages ? for I suppose there
are some who call themselves rich.” “ My residence,”
replied the captain, “is in a small town upon an island,
where there are but few carriages kept, but in the lar
ger townsand cities on the main land, there are quite
A number maintained, suited to our republican man
ners.” “Indeed,” cried the fair questioner, in a tone
that was both interrogative and exclamatory; “I can’t
fancy where you find coachmen ; I shouldn’t think the
Americans knew how to drive a coach.” “We find
no difficulty on that account, madam,’’ calmly rejoined
the captain—“We can have plenty of drivers by send
ing to England for them.” “To England !” exclaimed
the lady, speaking very quickly ; “I think the Ameri
cans ought to drive the English, instead of the Eng
lish driving the Americans.” “We did, madam, in
the late war,” rejoined the officer; “but since the
peace, we have permitted the English to drive us!”
There was no more quizzing of our American during
the dinner. He waited in vain, like Sam Weller, in
ü ß*rdell ta. Pickwick,’’ for the next question.
The Trickster Defeated
Many years ago, a young man twenty-one years of
age, and whom I will call Daniel, was hired on the
fari'n of Mr. W— —, a man of considerable note as a
farmer, in Massachusetts. Mr. W. had a daughter
and a hired girl, about 18 years of age, and Daniel be
ing of a steady turn, was not talkative enough to suit
their fancy* and after trying various tricks without suc
cess, to (as they said) raise his ideas, tin y caught a
large frog and put it into Daniel’s bed. He soon dis
covered the whereabouts of his uncomfortable bed fel
low, and pitched his frogship out of the window, and
never afterwards betrayed the least sign of knowledge
in regard to the joke.
About a month afterwards, Daniel found a lot of
chesnut burs nearly as sharp as thistles, and contrived
to deposit nearly half a peek in the girls’ bed, and after
the girls went to their room and had time to undress,
he took a candle, and went to the door and rattled the
latch, when the girls put out the light and jumped into
bed, and such a squalling and screaming was seldom
seen or heard before. Daniel now opened the door
and stood in it with light in hand.
“Dan, torment your picture* I wish you was as
far beyond the light house as you are this side,” said
Sukey.
“Who; what is the matter —have you any frogs?”
said Daniel.
“Dan, if you don’t shut that door and clear out, I
will call Mrs. W.’’ continued the same voice.
‘M will call her myself, if you wish,” said he.
“ Daniel, ’’ said Anna W., “if you’ll shut the door
and go back to the kitchen, there shall be no more tricks
or jokes put on you by us for one six months at least.’’
Daniel thinking he had punished the girls enough,
•hut the door and left. A few moments after this,
Sukey came out to light the candle.
“ I thought you had gone to bed, Sukey,” said Mrs.
W.
Sukey made no reply, but looking daggers at Daniel,
quickly returned. After this scrape, these girls put no
more jokes or tricks upon Daniel. He was a steady
and faithful man, saving every dollar of his earnings,
and in six years from that time owned a good farm,
married Anna W.,and was three years first selectman
in the town, which he afterwards represented in the
State legislature.
A country clergyman who had preached many
years to the same society, told his hearers, one Sunday
that if they would propose texts for him to preach upon
he could do them much more good than by selecting
his own. ‘Will not some one,’ he said, ‘give me a
subject for next Sunday ?’ After wailing a while for
some answer, a young man i.t the back part of the
house arose and said : ‘You know that we read in the
Bible that Nebuchadnezzar ate grass?’ ‘Certainly,’
said the minister, ‘we do; and now, young man, what
do you wish to have explained in regard to that pas
sage ?’ ‘O,’ said the young fellow,'l kinder want to
know how much they axed him a week for pasture.’
Singular Marriage.
Some three months ago the steamer Lafay
ette was on her passage from Louisville to the
Cresceut City. The boat was crowded with la
dies and gentlemen from every portion of the
country, some on pleasure excursions, others on
business. Every part of the boat was filled with
passengers, and especially the ladies’ cabin—
every state room and berth being occupied. A
merrier party never rode the Father of Wa
ters.
Nothing out of the usual routine occured du
ring the first three or four days. Every evening,
as is usual the on boats bound for the sunny
South, card playing and tripping the light fan
tastic toe, was of course the programme.
About six o clock ou the evening of the fourth
day, a signal light was discovered waving to
and fro on a distant shore. The boat rounded
to, and an individual enveloped in a cloak step
ped on board. Our passenger proved to be a
maiden lady of some thirty summers.
Where shall we stow her? was now the in
quiry. The ladies’ berths being all taken, the
clerk was obliged to give her a berth in the
gentlemen’s cabin, near the ladies’ saloon, which
was occupied by a tall, lank countryman, on his
way South with a cargo of notions, lie being
on the hurricane deck at the time, was not
aware that he would have to give up his quar
ters to a female; the officer of the boat, by
some oversight, failed to apprize him of this
new feature.
The dancing having ceased, “ the smaller
hours’’ being at hand, ail now retired to their
state rooms, with the rest, our unsuspecting
maiden friend—she turned into the lower berth
of the room, while our friend, the countryman
was fast asleep in the upper, doubtless dreaming
of the dimes he expected to pick up on his spec
ulation.
Next morning, the bell announced breakfast;
our maiden friend prepared to rise—when, lo
and behold! a pair of thick boots and a great
lot of unmentionables greeted her eyes.
At that moment our country friend also
opened his peepers. A lot of female appa
rel was the first thing that met his horrified vis
ion. The truth flashed across his mind—he
had got into the wrong box, perhaps ; but that
could not be as his duds were where he had plac
ed them several days previous. Doth were fairly
caught; who shall make the first move?
After much hesitation, our friend in the upper
berth ventured to look below. A pair of eyes
stared him in the face! After playing a regu
lar game of “bo-peep’’ for some time, our coun
try friend, with all the gallantry of a gentleman,
suggested the propriety of just covering her
eyes tor a moment, untill he slipped on his in
expressibles. She did so, and he vamoosed
like smoke. His business was to find the clerk
who had placed hitn in such a ridiculous fix.
Apologies we Be made, and a hearty laugh en
joyed at his expense. lie now agreed to treat
all hands if the passengers would keep cool.
Every one noticed that Jonathan paid his
friend great attention during the trip. Some
heard him tell her his prospects in life. On the
arrival of the boat at New Orleans, the parties
were seen wending their way along one of the
principal streets; inquiring tor a magistrate’s
office—and if there ever was a cause of love at
first sight, this must have been one.—iY. 0.
Picayune. ‘
/ Curran and Lord Avonmore.
, Asa Judge, aud, indeed Barrington has lim
ited at it, Lord Avonmore had om-great fault:
he was apt to take ujua first impression of a
cause, and it was afE&rwards to obliter
ate it. rTTe advocate, therefore, had not only
to struggle against the real obstacle presented
to him by tiie case itself, but also with the imag
inary ones created by the hasty anticipation of
the Judge. Curran was one day most seriously
annoyed by this habit of Lord Avonmore, and
he took the following whimsical method of cor
recting it: The reader must remember that the
[object of the narrator was by a tedious aud mali-
Icious procrastination, to irritate his hearer into
the vice he was so anxious to eradicate. They
[ were to diue together at the house of a common
! friend, and a large party was assembled, many
of whom witnessed the occurrences of the morn
ing. Curran, contrary to all his usual habits,
was late for dinner, and at length arrived in the
most admirably affected agitation. “Why, Mr.
, Curran,you have kept usa full hour waiting din
ner for you,” grumbled out Lord Avonmore.
[“Oil, my dear Lord, I regret it much ; you must
luiow it is not my custom ; but I’ve just been
to a most melancholy occurrence.”
“My God ! you seem terribly moved by it; take
a glass of wine. What was it? what was it ?’’
['•l will tell you, my lord, the moment I can
[collect myself. 1 had been detained at court
jin the Court of Chancery—your lordship knows
[the chancellor sits late.’’ *'l do—l do ; but go
fort.” “Well, my lord, I was hurrying here as
‘fast as I could—l did not even change my dress
—1 hope I will be excused for coming in my
boots.’’ ‘“Dob! poll ! never mind your boots :
the point—come at once to the point ot the
jSUn-y.” “Oh, 1 will, my good lord, in a mo-
UK'ttjl I walked here—l would not even wait to
get\be carriage ready—it would have taken
tiinelyou know. Now there is a market exact
ly ii( the road by which 1 had to pass—your
lordship may perhaps recollect the market—do
you ?'’ “To be sure, I do: go on , Curran—go
on with the story.” “I am very glad your lord
ship remembers the market, for 1 totally forgot
the name of it—the name—the name— ’’ “What
the devil signifies the name of it, sir ?’’ It’s the
castle market.’’ “Tour lordship is perfectly
right it is called the castle market. Well, l
was passiug through that very identical castle
market, when I observed a butcher preparing to
kill a calf. lie had a huge knife in his band
it was as sharp as a razor. The calf was stand
ing behind him—he drew the knife to plunge it
into the animal. Just as he was in the act of
doing so, a little boy about four years old—ran
suddenly across his path, and lie killed—oh, my
God! he killed—” “The child! the child!
the child!” vociferated lord Avonmore. “ No,
my lord, the calf ,” continued Curran, very cool
ly : “lie killed the calf, but your lordship is in
the habit of anticipating.” The universal laugh
was thus raised against his lordship; and Cur
ran declared that, often afterwards, a first im
pression was removed more easily from the
Court ot Excequer by the recollection of the
call in castle market, than by all the eloquence
ot the entire profession.
“ Lardord, give me a gl :iss of brandy. I’ve
just told the truth, and want to get the taste out
es my mouth.'’ Thus exclaimed a pettifogger,
as he rushed from the bar of justice to of
tods. Queer how strange food disagrees with
people, isn’t it ?
A young lady, who perhaps is better
acquainted with French than farming, was
recently married to a farmer. In examining
her new domains, she one day visited the barn,
when she thus interrogated the milk-maid.

Are there lingering Doubts
IN the minds of the people of Georgia, in jegard to thesupe
rior efficacy of innocent Vegetable remedies, properly applied ,
over mineral and Vegetable poisons in the most skillful hands?
If there are, a few more facts of a marked and remarkable char
racter, tending to prove the affirmative of the question, will not
be inappropriate.
Convulsive Fits Cured!
GEORGIA: ) 1 hereby certify that in the spring of 1845
Jasper County. )my negro girl Charity was attacked with
convulsive fits, which continued to increase on her, notwith
standing all the efforts of some of our best Mineral Doctors
in this region. Deeming the case hopeless with them, 1 con
cluded to carry her to Macon and put her under the treatment
of Dr. M. S. Thomson, who gave her medicine some two or
three months, which stopped them for about 18 months, at
which time they returned with increased violence, so severe,
indeed, that I and an eminent physician in the neighborhood de
spaired of her life. Under these circumstances the Doctor a
gain advised me to call on Dr. Thomson, which Ididand ob*
tained a portion of medicine, which, I am pleased to be able to
say entirely cured her. The last she had continued from some
7to 9 hours or more and was very severe, but they have not
recurred since, a period of over three years.

Fits cured without seeing the Patient!!
Jones Cos. Ga. 7th Feb. 1851.
This may certify that my negro woman Martha, (now be
longing to Ferdinand Finney,) was severely attacked with Ep
ilepsy, or convulsive fits in 1847, w hich continued to return
every week or two, and sometimes continued on her for a
week at a time, during which she would have as many asfor
ty or fifty on a stretch, before stopping, lntliis'state she con
tinued for a whole year, notwithstanding all Dr. liidley of
Hillsboro, could do. Despairing at last of his success, and
hearing of the unpraielled cures effected by Dr. M. S. Thom
son of Macon, I concluded to call on him, which I did, and
gave him her symptoms when he prepared and gave me med
icine, which in about tw o months entirely cured her, as she
has had none since and is now perfecly healthy, thus adding
another to the many cures the Doctor has effected without
seeing the patient.

Syphilis, Rheumatism & Liver Complaint
Cured without seeing the Patient!
Jones Cos. Ga. 21st. Sept. 1850.
Dr. .V. S. Thomson —Dear Sir: Your success lias been
such in curing my son of Rheumatism and my negro woman
of liver disease, Rheumatism, Syphilis &e. that 1 cannot re
frain from giving you the credit that is due you, for your
skill, and if you think that a statement of the cases will be
any use in directing Other sufferers, to the proper remedies,
the following rel .tion of facts is at your disposal.
Some 14 years ago, my negro woman Ritody was taken in
a lingering way, supposed to be caused from Syphilis, treated
by herself, which on discovering, I put her under the care
of reveral mineral physicians, Drs. Little and White of Mil
ledgeville, especially, w-ho after mercurializing her a year or
so. left her worse than they found her, laboring in addition
under Mercurial Rheumatism.
1 then applied to Dr. Woodruff, who treated, and I thought
cured her, but after a while, she became w’orse again, so
much so that I despaired of relieving her. Under these cir
cumstances I applied to you, and 1 am pleased to be able to
report, that notwithstanding it is a longtime ago, she has had
no return of her disease since, but is now doing me very good
service.
The case of iny son was one of Mercurial Rhematism ari
sing from salivation for a fever. After keeping lingering for
three or four years, and getting worse all the time, till liis
limbs were drawn and stiffened very much; notwithstanding
all that we could do, he continued thus, till w'e applied to you
when you soon relieved him, andl ain happy to be able to re
port that consider him relieved cured, and lias been so twelve
months.
Inconclusion, dearsir, goon and prosper, you may have ene.
nties, as who that is any account has not, but success in curing
such desperate cases must bear you up, and that your success
may be commensurate with your merits is the earnest wish of
yours truly, GIGLIS WRIGHT.
The undersigned continues his treatment of all manner of
chronic forms of disease, through the mail, the facilities of
which have been much enhanced since the introduction of
the cheap postage system, which will be greatly increased by
the recent Act of Congress.
The afflicted, no matter where they reside, by sending a
statement of the symptoms of their cases in writing, may
have Medicines to suit them compounded and sent, and might
count upon receiving it with the same certainty that they
would a letter. That they can b : cured withont a personal
interview and examination, isstrange, but that hundredsare
thus cured, is no more strange than true.
In order that all, the poor as well as the rich, may enjoy the
benefits resulting from his treatment, the subscriber puts his
terms at the low rate of live dollars monthly, cash or good re
ference, to all those who are able to pay, and freely and grat
uitously to those whoare not, provided they pay their postage.
Ilis Infirmary is open for the reception of Negroes; and for
other cases requiring his personal attention, City accommoda
tions are ample.
lie still continues the treatment of acute cases, in town or
in the immediate surrounding country, but cannot leave the
city to go long distances except in cases of most urgent neces
sity. Being possessed of some of the latest improvements in
surgical apparatus, he is prepared to treat fractures,disloca
tions, &c. in a manner superior to the plans usually adopt
ed and calculated to succeed in many instances when these
would inevitably fail.

have to endure in tlie mines is sure to bring on dis

Gentlemen: — You! Hebrew Planter has cured
me of pains of which I have suffered for twelve
years past. During this period I labored under an
affliction of my loins and side, and tried many re
medies that my own medical experience suggested,
but without obtaining relief. At. length I used your
Plaster, and am now by its good effects entirely
cured. I “ ill recommend the Jew David or He

Messrs. Scovil & Mead: I have been troubled
with the chronic rheumatism for the last twelve

I could not turn myself in bed, and the pain so se
vere that 1 had not slept a wink for six days. At
this time my attending physician prescribed the
•Hebrew Plasters,’ and it acted like a charm; the
pain left me, and I slept more than half of the night,

A SAFE and certain cure for Coughs, colds,
Croup, Asthma, Consumption of the Lunas!
Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis, Ilooping Couch, and
all Pulmonary affections;
ILT A Lovely Young Lady Cured of
Consumption !!
The following is from the pen of Wm. ll.Levi
son, Esq., the distinguised editor of the United
States Military and Naval Argus, under date New
York, January 2G, 1850. What could be more con
clusive?
‘lt is seldom we permit ourselves to occupy a
space in these columns to speak in praise of anv
article in the patent medicine way; that when we
see the life of lellow-creature saved by the use o
any medicine whatever, we consider it as our
right, if not our duty, to give a simple statement of
facts, that others may, in like manner, be benefit
led. The case which has induced us to pen this
article was that of a young iadv of our acquain
tance, who by frequent exposure to the night air,
contracted a Cold which settled on the Lungs be
fore its ravages could be stayed. (This occured
t.vo years ago this winter.) Various remedies
were used, but with very little effect or benefit.—
The Cough grew worse, with copious expectora
tion, ami the sunken eye, and pale, hollow cheek,
told plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its
worst on her delicate frame. The family physi
cian was consulted, and although be would not ad
mit to tli? young lady that she really bad the Con
sumption, yet lie would give no encouragement as
to a cure. At this crisis her mother was persuad
ed to make use of a bottle of Dr. Rogers’ Com
pound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar, and we are
happy to state she was perfectly cured in less than
three months by this medicine alone, alter even
hope was destroyed. It is useless to comment on
such a case as this, for the simple truth will reach
where polished fiction never can. If any doubt
the authority of this statement, let them call at
this office.— IJ. S. Military and .Yu val Argus, .Vo.
