Sec the crimson clouds of evening— Lattice-bars across the blue— Where the moon in pallid beauty, Like an angel gazes through 1 Over all the winding river. By the fading sunset kist. Slowly rises up the vapor. In a cloud of ghostly mist. While the Eve is slowly turning Its last grains of golden sand, What a holy quiet hovers Over all the drowsy land ? There is now the spell of silence— Os a silence calm and deep— Over ail the placid water Where the blue mist seems asleep. And the vessels slowly gliding Down the river to the bay. Show on sheets of spreading oauvass Tints which change from red to grey. All is quiet save the murmur Os tho tide upon the bar; See cacb little breaker playing With the imago of a star ! And ’tis thus that human creatures Bowed with age, or fresh in youth, Give back brokenly the image Os each grand, celestial truth. 2'■ vr the broodiugsilence deepens. and the scene is one of rest, While tire wrecked day drifts down grandly To be stranded in the West- On yon rugged coast of cloud-land High above the village spire On its mighty purple headlands And its crags all tipped with fire. Translated far the Norfolk Journal.] CURIOSITY OF TISE I-ADIES—A STORY FROM RABELAIS. As Pope John XXII was one day pass ing near an abbey, he was met by the ab bessand holy mothers of the institution, who came out to present him a petition. The object they were in quest of was an indulgence from his Holiness, by which they might be allowed to confess to one of their own sex, instead ofa priest, since they averred they could speak more fa miliarly to each other than to men. The Pope, in reply, said, "There is nothing which I would not willingly grant you, were it not that I see one objection, which is. that the confession ought always to be kept a secret —yon women would searce lybe nbielokeepfromtalking.” “Yes,” said I hey, “we can keep secrets, and that very well, 100 ; indeed, rather better, we think, than men.” The Holy Father soon after presented them with a box, in which he had placed a linnet, giving them at the same time directions to be partic ularly careful to put it away in some se cret and secure place, and promising them on the word ofa Pope to grant their peti tion. if they would only not trouble it in any wav whatsoever, lint assuring them f the censure of the Holy Church and eter al excommunication, if they opened it. 11 had scarcely finished'his prohibition before they were all on thorns to see what the box ( outained, and impatient to see him outside the door, so as to have a chance to pry into it. His Holiness, after a while, gave them his blessing and departed. He had not gone three steps from the abbey before these good ladies rushed all at once to open the forbidden box, and to see what was therein. The next day the Pope paid them a visit, they doubted not with the intention of granting the indulgence. Be fore entering into conversation, however, he requested them to bring him the box, and brought it was —but the bird teas not there. Then, slightly rebuking them, he told them that it would be entirely too difficult a.thing for them to keep the se crets of the confessional, since, though so strictly charged about the box. they had broken his command, impelled by their inordinate curiosity. The Fireman.—At the entertainment given in Charleston, on the 6th, to the Delegation of the New York Firemen on their way to Columbia, the following true and beautiful paragraph was uttered by Mr. Henry Wilson, chairman of the dele gation, in response to a toast: "It is no mercenary motive that in duces men to engage in the duties of a volunteer Fireman’s life —a life contin ually imperilled in the discharge of duty, the midnight hour, when balmy sleep s closed the eyes of most of his fellow izens, in heat, or winter's Id, through blasts, the Fire man leaves the sanctity and seclusion of home, or the company of congenial friends, at the bidding and warning of the lond-mouth bell, answers the sum mons, and often from the embrace of af fection, ruddy with health, falls into the embrace of death.” “The Infamous Two-Thirds.”—Un der "this caption the New York World publishes, surrounded by a heavy black border, the names of the Senators and members of Congress who voted to pass Sherman’s Military Bill over the Presi dent's veto, which measure tho editor characterizes as “ a bill to annul the Con stitution of the United States, to subvert the government of ten States in the Union, j and to substitute therefor military des potism.” After givingthe names of those who “ voted aye on the final passage of the bill to ‘organize hell,’ ” the editor adds: “ The time is coming when every p jji-. • ... •• .. . , cm history Their children will deny I eir descent from the infamous two- j irds of the 'Shirty-ninth Congress.” i R.

MAGGIEL’S PILLS and SALVE. wdnderful medicines are now so fa miliar to the people that but little endorse ment of their value as a physic need be made. The pills of Dr. Maggiel contain no mineral. They do not gripe, and they do not enfeeble the system by extreme purging. They are universal in creating A VIGOROUS APPETITE ! And co? rcspondingly strengthen the digestion They tone the liver, clear the head, and steads the ner res. To those who are not familiar witl the use of OR. MAGGIEL’S PILLS as ar anti-bilious remedy, the following ex* trac.s from various letters will be, it is hoped, of 9 dficient importance to justify the quoting of th inhere: WHAT THK PATIENTS SAY OF OR. MAGGIEL’S PILLS AND SALVE. “The best Pills for headache I ever had.” “My liver works like an engine, thanks to your Pills.” „ “I am pleased to say to you. Dr. Maggie!, that I would not be without a box of your Pills for curing me of morning nausea for the world.” “ You will find enclosed one dollar. Your Pills are only 25 cents, but I consider them worth to me one dollar.” “Dear Doctor—My tongue had a fur on it every morning like the back of a cat. Your Pills took it away.” ‘‘l took half a pill and crushed it to powder, and gave it in jelly to my little babe for cholera morbus. The dear little pot was well in three aours after.” “I suppose it is hardly worth while to tell yon my burned foot has got well from the use of your Salve. Enclosed find 25 cent® for another box to keep in the house ” “Send me another box of Salvo.” “ Enclosed find 75 cents for two boxos of your Maggicl’s Pills and one of Salve.” “The most gentle yet searching medicine ever swallowed.” MAGGIEL’S PILLS AND SALVE Are almost universal in their effects, and a cure can be almost always guaranteed. FOR BILIOUS DISEASES Nothing can be more productive of cure than these Pills. Their almost magic influence is felt at once; and the usual concomitants of this most distressing disease are removed. These remedies are made from the purest VEGETABLE COMPOUNDS. They will not harm the most delicate female, and can be given with good effect in prescribed i doses to the youngest babe. FOR CUTANEOUS DISORDERS ! And all eruptions of the skin the SALVE is most invaluable. It does not, heal externally . alone, but penetrates with the most searching effects to the very root of the evil. DR. MAGGIEL’S PILLS INVARIABLY cure the following diseases. Asthma, Headache, Bowel Complaints, Indigestion. Coughs, Influenza, Colds, Inflammation, Chest Diseases, Inward Weakness, | Costiveness, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Lowness of Spirits. i Diarrhoea, Ringworm, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Debility, Salt Rheum.. Fever and Ague, Scalds. Skin Disease.*, Each box contains 12 Pills ONE PILL IS A DOSE. •&tr .Notice.—None genuine without the em graved trade mark around each pot or box signed by DOCTOR J. MAGGIEL, New York, to counterfeit which is felony. Sold by all respectable Dealers in medi cines throughout the United Sta tes and Cana das, at 25 cents per box or pot. A. A. SOLOMONS & CO., aug!4-ly Sole Agent* for Savannah . J A NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE. i j Dr. Maggiel is the founder of new Medi cal System! The quantitarians, whose vast in ternal doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give precedence to the man hwo restores health and appetite, with from one to two of his extraordinary Pills, and cures the most virulent sores with a box or so of his wonderful and nil healing Salve. These two great specifics of the Doctor are last superseding a!i the stereotyped nostrums of the day . Extra ordinary cures by Maggicl’s Pills and fc=alve I have opened the eyes of the public to the ineffi ciency of the (so called) remedies of others, an j upon which people have so long blindly depend ed. Maggiel *s Pills are not of the class that are swallowed by the dozen, and of which every box full taken creates an absolute necessity for another. One or two of Maggiel’s Pills suffices to place the bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and render the spirits light and buoyant! There is no griping, and no reaction in the form of constipation. If * the liver is .affected, its functions are re-tored and if the nervous system is feeble, it is invigo rated. This last quality makes the medicine: very desirable for the wants of delicate females. • Ulcerous and eruptive diseases are literally ex tinguished by the disenfectant power of Mag gie!’s Salve. In fact, it is here announced that Maggiel’s Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diarrhoea Pills cure where nil others fail. While for Burns, Scalds. Chilblains. Cuts and all abrasions of the skin Maggiel’* Salve is infallible. Sold by J.
