me. From that hour I have improved. I have
persevered in their uae. Until now, by God's bless

DYSPEPSIA.
8.D. Wallace, Frq., President of the Wilming
ton A Weldon Railroad, (Aug. 3-, 180$) say I; "It
has been said that Dyspepsia is our national dU
ease. However this may be. It e-iu-cd ir.e long and
severe suffering. Providentially a friend furnished
me with a few ooxea of the llepatlo l’llla, and tbe
use of them has perfected a cure. In uty family
they have b»en used treuueutly with eminent sue
cc-s. Among my acauaintancea tnuny ctiscs orlgi-
messed liver, have bivn relieved and
cured"by them. I tegurd them an invaluable med-
icine, and take pleasure in forwarding this volunta
ry tribute."
A \V. J). TayLr, E*q., Petersburg, Va., (Jan. 13
185$,) mv*: 'In th* Hprlng of 186m. 1 wa« altock-
e«t with Dyspepsia to such an extent that ull my
food of every description disagreed with me. I
was swollen so 1 had to loosen my clothe*, and
night after night l could get no alcep. I tried one
or two physicians, and look a good deal of tnedi- .
ie. but found no relief. I purchased one box of |
...»nou'hern Hepatic Pills, and the flr-l dose I j
took 1 felt tclicTed, and continued until I look the ,
whole bo*. I «m now entirely well, and ooi hear
tily, and never have been etlackod since. I can
safely recommend these Pilla to Ibe Dyspeptic and
■ e community at large."
If you are threatened with Pneumonia, read the

Va.: •• Sympathy lor the suffering prompts me to

that I would try an experiment on him ; without
any hope of success, however, I gero the Pilla in

there was u change for tbe better ; I continued giv

FI 1st Proposal-
At ImI, the long day's buying done,
I fumed leave the frngrant uieudow,
Where, on the gras*, Iho setting sun
Before me cant my lengthened shadow
I -Duck a narrow path that ran
By Lovells form, a Crooked by-way,
Which somewhere thereabout begun,
Ami ended on the dusty highway.
It reached their hern-yard first of all,
Then wandered through a wood hollow,
And darted past tm old done-wall.
Aa If inviting you to follow.
It climbed u hill where all the day
Thu crows reliuoned u mimic Babel;
1i mr-sed a brook which flowed that way,
Then slid bcuenth our burn'u brown gable..
A shorter cut It wos that led
To our own homestead Irom the meadow,
Ami ho 1 followed it liutend,
And on before me went my shadow.
Then nearing I.ovellV farm I heard
The white horned cattle faintly lowing,
While. Imbldlug. In the bright pailH stirred
The milk from well-filled udtknt (towing.
I glanced beyond the barn-yard wall.
And there nut Kitty milking ••Speckle,"
The favorite cow among! them nil,
Her line cout flecked with many n freckle.
Then up got Kidy- so by Hint
1 knew her milking done and straightway,
While my own heart went plt-u-put.
Came toward me through the open gateway.
The sun dropped down from out the sky,
Ami left Iii.i west with rich gold laden ;
An awkward country lad was I,
And Knty but n simple maiden.
Ilor eye* met mine hh If by chance,
Not knowing who it wua; then shyly,
'Neath drooping lids, withdrew their glance,
Then buck again to mine stole sly'y.
With that Inst look my coinage grew ;
1 raid it limy have been i swore It—
She was the sweetest girl 1 knew,
And told her bow I loved her (or It.
Pcilinp* *he gave me no ityty,
Perhaps it wu* the night s gray curtain.
Slow-falling from the twilight sky.
Which loll hernnawer ho uncertain.
Then winding homeward, torn with doubt,
Thu tree-loads trilled their firm conviction ;
The patriarch frog*, with deep buns shout,
Grew liourso and loud in contrudlclion.

But ere the moon waaonc hour older

TIIE EFFECTS OF SLANDER.
Mrs. Graham called on Mrs. Grant
one iilcnsnnt day in July. They were
neighbors, and loved n bit of goHsi|».
Mrs. Grnlinm seated herself near the
open window, and looked out over the
fragrant garden to the little white house
beyond.
‘Who lives there V is the query.
'Don't you know ? There is tbe
dace whore the widow liryaon mid

‘Ah ! the old and tbe young Indy
who sat in the west pew lust 8 und ay ?'
'Yen.'
Ilnve you called ?’ questioned Mrs.
Grolinm.

Yes ; are y«.u ;;..t eoing |o bo neigh

‘I don't nBsociato with every one.'
‘No, I suppoae not—bt)t are not those
lice people r
‘Oh ! I didn't say they were not. I
don’t believe in talking ill of nty neigh
born; if I can’t speak well of any one.
I believe in just letting them alone.’
'Alt I what is it ?'
'Oh, nothing much ; but I guess if
you saw wlint I see daily you wouldn’t
think of my coiling ; they don't suffer
for want of company very much.’
'Who has been there f I’ll novor
mention il,’ said Mrs. Graham
Mrs. Grtilium shook her head.
•I.ndles ?’
'I never saw any ladies culling there. 1
'Gentlemen V
‘Ye*, it you cull Squire Gregory a
gentleman.’
'Squiro Gregory ?’ Mrs, Graham
lifts her hand in horror.
Wo will just whisper to the rondei
that tlio mnsculino in question boro a
very evil reputation, having boon, figu
ratively speaking, ‘kicked out’ of socie
ty long ago.
'And you saw him, really there ?’
mused Mrs. Grithnm. 'Is it possible?
Well, one cannot mUtiiko their clittruc*
tor. I'm glad we have found thorn out
in sheep’s clothing.’
Mrs. Grant shells her pons for dinner,
and Mrs. Graham rolls up tier knitting
work.
'Don’t bo in a hurry Mrs. Graham.’
‘Oh 1 I have not been. By the way
you have not got tiny yeast that you could
spare ? Mine m tired, and I must buku
tomorrow if possible.’
•Ob I yes; take a cup full now, or
send little Jennie over 1'or it,* said Mrs.
Grant.
‘Going up to Mr*. Morrill's suid
Mrs Grant. '1 loro's her magazine
that I borrowed lust week ; I have boon
trying to get John to take it; lie likos
to read it as well u* I do, but when lie
can borrow bo won’t subscribe.’
Mrs. Merrill, nn aristocratic lady,
who lived in n 'two story brick,' groots
her visitors with n quiet und polite good
morning, ushered her into the sitting
room. There ih a canary in a gilded
cage, who is trilling his song very mer
rily, and thorg are blooming (lowers in
the windows.
•Will you lay off your shaker? asks
Mrs. Merrill, quietly.
'Oil, 'tisn’t worth while—I just run
in ; 1 was going up to tlio storo mid
thought I would cull and return this
magazine. Funning hursolf with her
shaker, which hIio had just removed,
how dreadful warm the weather is.*
•It is uncommonly sultry.' Mrs.
Merrill takes up the embroidery alio
laid aside oa Iho entrance of hor visitor.
Wo scarcely feel the heat, however;
wo Imvo a good draught, and thoro is a
ver7 good shade around the bouse.—

who bad just entered, 'porlnips Mrs.

the new pastor is to preach bis next

•But you can’t guess whom wo are

and it would be the height of rudonosH
to withdraw tho invitation.’
Miss Morrill could not help him in

Tho next Sabbath, Miss Bryson took

Tho sensation occasioned con be bettor
imagined than described at this act.
Tho young indy who wont next to
Miss Bryson turned her back to her,
und made no offer of her note book
when slio rose to sing. c!io scorned to

Ilcr faco burnod crimson, and thou grew

what could bo tlio moaning of all this?
Mr. John Elmore had got blinself in
to n fine pickle ! Tlio young lady mem
born of his choir notified him Hint tlioy
would sing no more unless Miss Bryson
was removed, and this disngrccablo
tank be was obliged to perform.
Ho wroto a note, slating that circum
stances unloroBcen by him when he
invited hor to become a member of the
choir compelled him to withdraw the
invitation. It wos a very rude proceed
ing. but would she pardon him ?
Many girls would have rallied after
tho shock, an l defiantly met tho inhos
pitable world; but not so with Ellen
Bryson. Whenever she wont into so
ciety sito wns treated with scorn and
contempt; bo at length iho remained
at homo, and griovod herself sick over
it. Bho wns ono of those fragile blos
soms that n rough wind or unkind Irost
will so easily destroy.
Very few persons called at the white
cottage; but lynxed eyed neighbors no
ticed that Squire Gregory wns there
with parcels and bundles, arid thut was
enough for thorn. For had tlioy not
been so evil-disposed they could have
easily ascertained what those bundles
contained, which will bo soon presently.
1’orhnpB their consciences smoto them
a little when Dr. Groen told them thnt
tho young lady at tho cottage was ill
of brain mvor, caused by some kind of
worry or trouble, and that no porsons
were lending assistance.
Several volunteered. Mrs. Bryson

Appearances Against Him.
A New England merchant, doing «
large business, requiring several ulerks,
a snort time since missed several arti*
clt'B of vnluo from his storo. Be deter
mined to watch the habits of these
young men to discover, if possible,
which one, if either of them, wns un
trustworthy. There was one of them
who appeared particularly active and
faithful ; wns the first to eomo and tho
last to leave nt night ; his dress wns in.
forior to thut of the other clerks ; and ho
was evidently not particularly popular
among them. Tho inorchant learned
that this young man remained fur half
an hour or more after tho others left,
with the door of the store locked.—
This cironmstnnco awakened Ur
cions, and ho arranged n plan <
himself in tho store, so that h
discover what occurred when tfS
supposed bimself to be unobaerf
Having sent thu young ninu up A
errand just beforo the hour of cl\
he entered his place of concealment
Tlio door was locked ns usual at tho
proper time. The clerk nt. once began
to sweep and put the establishment in
order. While waiting for tho dust to
settle, lie was seen to go behind tho
counter, nnd taking something from un
der it, place it in tho breast of bin o >ut.
Tlio merchant wua now nil alive to dis
cover what had been taken end what
was to bo dono with il. Tho young
man went to the window und sat in al
ienee a few moments, apparently ex
amining 4ho package which ho bad
taken from his breast. Tho merchant
was not left long In doubt. His clerk
soon fell upon his knees ; ho saw that it
was the Bible ho had boon rending, an-i
now ho offered aloud a simple and
touching prayer, for himself, his mother
nnd sister, his employer, and particular
ly for ti brother clork, who, no feared,
was ,\ ielding to temptation. After he
had finished dusting ho left tho store,
unconscious of having had u human eye
upon him.
It is easy to believe- thnt tho mer

Book Farmins.—Those who ure op-
posed to luiok farming ure requested to
read tho following :
Thoro was a farmer onco who hesita
ted not to hurl all manner of invectives
against book furmiog and those who
consulted books for udvl.co. By long
experience and pructioul observation ho
had become quite successful in the cul
ture of grnpes and trees, liis fields
woro clean and fuir, and highly produc
tive. llis trees woro vigorous, .well ad
justed, and profitable. In conversation
with u friend, lie related his experience
in raising grapes and trees, entering in
to the minutest details, sometimes be
coming quite eloquent when describing
his victories over tlio onemios which in
fest them, “llis knowledge,” lie said,
“was gained by dint of application, by
actual experience mid hard labor. It
wiib mmo of your book knowledge,
written by men who know nothing
about fuitiiing.” “Well,” said liisfrienu,
“if ull this valuable information gained
by assiduous labor and observation of
so many years, and which you have so
clearly described, were written out and
published, which would you have a
young and inexperienced man do—take
this us ho finds it from your pen, or go
through tho sumo tedious process that
you have gone through with, including
nil its vexations ami losses ?” Tlio
question puzzled him, and he was silent
fur a moment, but was obliged at lost
to confess thut, uftor all, there was much
that was voluubla in books becntiso
combining und relating the rosults and
experience of practical cultivators. Do
not condemn book farming. You may
criticise certain books very severely, bo-
cuuso written by ignoruut, theoretical
hunds; but there i# always good whoat
as well us abundant chuff. Bo there
aro inuny good books as well as poor
ones. The timo may come when a single
hint from a book or paper may save
your farm or orchard, or add to your
wealth, by telling you bow to iflcrDnse
your orops.
