HEARD.
Several metrical attack, upon beard bavo been made
luring the past year. The best we remember to have
r-en is the following parody on Campbell's ditbyrambic
Hohenlinden:
< >n manhood, when the race was young.
The beard in unshorn beauty sprung.
And nations felt what poets sung—
Man’s great and matchless majesty.
Bn I manhood saw another sight,
When fashion bade each luckless wight
With lather make himself a fright,
And use the keen edged cuttlery.
With napkin near his glass arrayed.
Each man then dr°w his jgmr blade,
With soap and brush a lather made.
To hide the dreadful butchery.
And whiter yet that face should grow,
When all the glorious beard laid low,
His glass a woman’s face shall show,
Shorn of its manly majesty.
The razor glides—before it fall
Mustachio and imperial—
The stately beard and whiskers, all
The victim of its treachery.
Ah! few continue to be men
For many even glory, when
Each day the soapy loam again
Is made their manhood’s sepulchre
Touching Incident
Buffalo Commercial says that the Ri ctor of St.
Paul’s Church,in that city, had reached the middle
of his discourse on Christmas Ece, when a delegate
from heathendom came up the south aisle. It was
a young squaw with a half-heathenish, i.alf civil
ized dress, a diminutive bonnethanging on the buck
of her head by the strings, and a calico shawl ul
gay colors wrapped around her like a blanket.—
She came along with the slow Indian step, until,
near the front ol the church, a gentleman gave her
a seat. She sat down as if unaccostomed to cus
ons, but maintained very good behavior, except
iwhen the Rector was occasionally more than usual
ly emphatic, she felt called upon to express her
approval by an audible “dal’s good.” During the
singing of the closing hymn, she stood up with the
rest, evidently much excited, leaning eagerly forw
ard, her frame quivering with the new emotion of
organ music. But after the benediction, when 11■
choir performed an anthem, she tu-hed out of the
pew into tiie space before the ch nsei, where she
stood unconscious of the gaze of the congregation,
her eyes fixed outlie organ, and all the s’raiigeness
ot her position furgotton in the rush of sensation
produced by the rich notes of the organ and the ex
ulting chorus of the anthem. Poor child of the
wilds! drunk with anew emotions, a stray lamb
from heathendom, joining unconsciously in the
worship of One, who almost at the antipodes and
nineteen centuries ago, lay in swaddling clothes with
in a manger.—N. Y. News.
A Little Moralizing that will do for both Old and
Young.
A day or two since we were on our way up
stairs to the fifth story. We live there. We look
ed and saw two children beneath us. They wore
a happy smile, and laughed gleefully as they play
ed together. There seemed to be a vonng vet
strong, love between them. Acting under a gen
erous impulse, we drew a cent from our pocket,
and threw it at their feet. What a change ! A I
haste, aii eagerness to seize the treasure! Play
forgotten—and then a struggle, hot and fierce, tur
tin* prize! Sad sight! Desire and self, triumph
How like the full-grown man, thought we, is this
race and battle lor the paltry coin. Yet, surely,
unlike the full-grown mau, the victor will be gen
erous, and give half to hi- disappointed comrade.
Not so—the victor scornfully exulted and laughed
for joy: the vanquished showed fierce passion
through his eyes, his little cheeks were pale with
rage ; “Give it to me,” he said, “it’s not yours; he
meant it for me, and you sha’nt have it.” And
they both ran to us and cried eagerly : “Who’s is
it?” “You gave it to me, didn’t you?” “Chil
dren,” we said, “we meant it for him who had the
sharpest eye and quickest hand. He who seized
it first must have it now.” Poor young hearts, in
which selfishness lies so soon hidden !
But this has been to ns a tension; we see from
how small a root tiie rapacity of human nature
grows! Also, the disappointed child we enrich
ed as we had done the other; and how the tears
fled from his smiling cheeks, and the revengeful
fire left his eyes! Both were then equally happy.
Each was sat sfied in knowing that the other did
not have what he possessed not. There was no
Covetousness, because there was no envy. “So,”
we said “when young, having things like those of
others, renders us happy ; when grown to be men we
despoil our brothers of all they have and covet still
the more.”
True Philosophy. —Goethe, when the doctrine
of the St. Simonians, “that every one shall labor
for the happinessof the whole, as a necessary con
dition of his own happiness,” was quoted to him,
replied, “that every one should begin at home, and
first of all work out his own happiness, from which
finally the happiness of the whole would infallibly
result. For the rest lhat doctrine seems to me
throughout unpractical and impracticable. It con
tradicts all nature, all experience, and the whole
course of things for centuries. If every one will but
do his duty as an individual, and will but be cour
ageous and sufficient in the sphere ot his immedi
ate calling, there would be no tear for the weal of
the whole. In my vocation ot author, I have never
a-ked, ’What is it the great mass wishes, and how
can I he useful to the whole ?’ but my endeavor,
and my only endeavor, has been this—to make my
self wiser and better, to increase the worth ot my
own personality, and then always to express only
what I lecognised to be good and true. My work,
indeed, I do not mean to deny it, has been effective
and useful in ? great circle; but such was not my
aim, it was merely a necessary consequence—one
which takes place in all activity wlialsoever. Ifi
as a writer, I had kept in view the wants of the
mob, and sought to appease them, I should have
betaken myself to story-telling, and made sport of
them like Kotzebue, ol blessed memory.”
The President's Message in Paris. —The An
nual Message of the President was telegraphed
from Liverpool to Paris immediately on its receipt
by the steamer, and appeared in all the Paris jour
nals of the following day. The comments are gen
erally complimentary, but one journal has a curi
ous hit of authentic (!) information connected with
its delivery to Congress, which lays the marvel
lous adventures of John Arrowsniith completely in
the shade. It is set forth by an exchange as fol
lows :
“The Charivari pretends to have been inform
ed by its correspondent at Washington, that Mr.
Buchanan was present in the House during tiie
reading, with his pockets full of revolvers, and that,
not satisfied with the reception given to the docu
ment. he shot at the clerk, the speaker and several
members of the opposition ; and then on his way
home through Pennsylvania Avenue, emptied the
rest of the barrels on the passers by. Charivari
asserts that Gen, Walker himself wrote that part of
the message which refers to his own movements,
and insists on treating the President as a confirm
ed fillibuster.”
Renewing the Slave ‘Trade. —By a private let
ter received from Loango, Coast, dated September
23d 1857, the National Intelligencer is advised that
the French have practically engaged in the slave
trade under the name of apprentices, and that a
ship, the “Clara,” of Boideaux, was at Loango at
tiie date mentioned above, loading'with negroes for
Martinique. A French war steamer lay alongside
to protect her from the English cruisers, who would
have seized her but that site had a French naval
officeron boatd with orders to tiie French Commo
dore to protect her. The English are also using
negroes as slaves at Sierra Leone. The French
and English Governments are participating in a
trade which they affect to deem so hideous. A
barracoon lias been built by the French at Loango
to be used for the safe keeping of the slaves until
they are ready for shipment. There is no secret in
this business, and no disguise is attempted.
Stabbing Affray Between School Boys. —Two
boys named Coleman and Rommell, attending Pub
lic School No. 1 in Jersey City, got into a tight yes
terday morning in front of the school building, du
ring which Coieman drew a pen-knife and inflicted
a severe wound upon the wrist of his adversary.
l)r. B urrows dressed the wound, and the injured
boy was taken home to No. 49 York street.
. V- ro Race. —Bayard Taylor writing, from
Nubia, in Upper Egypt, says:
n “Those friends of the African race who point to
Egypt as proof of what lhat race has accomplished
are wholly mistaken. The only Negro features
represented in Egypt sculpture are those of slaves
and captives taken in Ethiopean wars of the Pha
roahs. The temples and pyramids throughout Nu
bia, as far as the Dares and” Abysinia, all bear the
hieroglyphy of monarchs, and there is no evidence
in all the valley of the Nile that the Negro race ever
attained a higher degree of civilization than is at
present exhibited in Congo and Ashantee. I men
tion this, not from any feeling hostife to that race,
hut simply to controvert an opinion very prevalent
in some parts of the United States.”
J3P’Thf-re is an organized association of female
gamblers in Newburyport, Mass., the leader of
whom is the wife of one of the leading rumsellers
ol the city, and which numbers among its habitues
the female members of families, whom to name
would astonish every one.
An Irishman, near Boston, becoming great
ly alarmed, recently, at the severity of (lie thunder
and lightning, fell suddenly upon his knees, and
exclaimed : “O, L >rd, forgive us, and st p this.”
Braxford was an eccentric Scotch
Judge, with a bad-tempered wife. His butler de
termined to leave, because Lady Braxford was al
ways scolding him.
“Wtiv,” exclaimed the old Judge,” “ye’ve little
to complain; ye may be thankful ve’re not married
to her !”
Z-dT” A Scotcli lady entered a store in Boston
and inquired for a table cloth of a dam broad pat
tern. “We have some pretty broad,” was the re
ply ot the astonished salesman; “but none quite so
broad as that.” The lady explained that “dam
broad” was the Scotch term for chequered pat
tern.
“You’ve destroyed my peace ot mind,”
said a desponding iover to a truant lass.
“It can’t do much hat in, John, for’twas an ama
zing small piece you had anyway.”
A wag says of a certain congregation, lhat
they pray on their knees Sundays, and mi their
neighbors the rest of the week.
g-sy° Tom—“ Hallo, Fred ! What! you writing

Fred—“ Yes, I’m writing an owed io my tailor.”
Tom—“ What’s tne time and tune?”
Fred—“ Time sixty days. li’sset to a note of

Tell me. ye winged winds, that round my path

“Pray, Mr. Professor, what is a periphasis?”
“Madam, it is simply a circumlocutory cycle ofor

This candidate for public lavor has been laid on our ta

pietace. It that be a correct amepast ofwhai follows in
the body of the work, the reader may well expect a rich
feast ol tound logic, terse and compact statement and phil
ological acumen. Nor will he fail to find the attic salt ol
just and generous criticism. The author is manifestly en
tirely at home on the subject of which he treats. Judging
the work from the introductory pages, we think it will ap
pear that this author has gathered up the crude mass ol ore
scattered over the fields by other miners, subjected it to
the crucible, expelled the dross and other extraneous par
ticles, and brought to light the unadulterated gold. We
know it is a thankless office to recommend anew Gram

such a subject; but still, we are willing to slake our small

Philadelphia, Sept 1,1856.
Prof. DeGrath—Dear Sir—l must inform you of the
great benefit a patient of rniue has experienced from the
application of your Electric Oil. The ca-e was that of a
girl of 8 years of age, who was terribly afflicted with scro
fula, and a discharge from the knee. The leg becarne;so
contracted as to literally bury the heel in the hip. It had
been in this condition about 12 months, and I culd find
nothing in the whole materia medica to have any effect or
give relief. I finally procured a bottle ol your Electric
Oil arid gave it to tne mother directing her to apply it to
the parts along the contracted sinews, which had the ef
fect of making the leg nearly one fourth straight in about
six hours. The anplicatton of the Oil was continued for
about 3 weeks using only six bottles and now the leg is
nearly perfectly straight

SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS,
A Medicinal Diet Drink, ot eminently salutary qualities,
manufactured by himself exclusively, at his factory at
Schiedam in Holland.
It is made f rom the best barley* that can be selected in Eu
rope, with the essence of an aromatic Italian berry of ac
knou ledged and extraordinary medicinal .properties. It has
long si nee acquired a higi er reputation,both in Europe and
America, than . ny > ‘.Lor diuretic eve rage
In Gravel, Gt*ut and Rheumatism, in obstructions of the
B adder and Kidneys, and in General Debility it? ett ects are
prompt, anti invariably reliable. And it is not only a reme
dy or these maladies, but in all cases in which thty are pro
duced by drinking bad water, which is almost universally
the cause of them, it operates as a sure leventive.
The distressing effect upon the stomach, bowels and blad
der, of travelers, or new lesldeuts and all persons uuaccus
tomed to them, produced by the waters of nearly all our great
inland rivers, like the Ohio, Mississippi, and Alabama, from
the large quantity of decayed vegetable matter contained in
them, in a state of solution, is w*li known, as also that of the
waters of limestone regions, in producing Gravel, Calculi, and
Stone In the bladder The Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps Is
au absolutecorrective ot these injurious properties of bad
water, and consequently prevents the diseases which they oc
casion. it Is also found to be a cure ami preventive of Fe
ver and Ague, a comp'aint caused by the conjoint effect of
vegetable malaria io the atmosphere,-and vegetable prutes
ences in the waters of those districts in which it princi
pally prevails. The Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is conse
quently in great demand ‘ by persons traveling, or about to
settle in those parts ot the country, especially,as well ashy
many ii every community wliereit has become known on
accountof its various alher remedial properties.
in all cases of Dropsical tendency, it is generally the only
remedy requi red, when adopted in the early stages of the
disease. In Dyspepsia maladies, when taken in proper quan
titles, as a diet drink, and especially atuinßer;it is found by
uniform experience, to be eminently efficacious in'the most
obstii ate cases, when even thej best of|the usual remedies
have failed to afford more than temporary relief. In cases of
Flatulency, it is an immediate and invaluable specific; audit
may be administered in diluted and proportionate quantities
even to young infants, in all those paroxysmsof griping pain
in the stomach and bowels to which they are especially sub
ject, as well as in the colic of grown persons.
Its judicious adoption In connection with the principal
meals, or when a sense of exhaustion dictates its fise, never
fails to > *elieve , the deoilky attendant upon protracted chronic
maladies, low temperament, and exhausted vital energy, by
whatever cause induced. These are facts to which many of
the most eminent medical men both in Europe and the. Uni
ted States, have borne testimony, and which are corroborated
by their highest written authorities.
Put up in pint and quart bottles, in cases of one dozeneach
with my name on the bottle, cork, and lac simile of ray signa

land Professor, Boerhave. Because of its great success in
most of the European States, Us introduction intothe United
States was intended more especially for those ot our latber
,ami scattered here and there over the lace of this mighty
country. Meeting with great sn'cces* among them, I now oi
ler it to the American public, knowing that its truly wonder
mi medicinal virtue* must’ be acknowledged.
It is particularly recommend* and to those persons whose
constitutions may have been impaired by thecontinuous use
ot ardent spirits,* or other forms ot dissipation. Generally in

NOTlCE.—Whoever expects to find this a beverage will be
disappointed; but to the sick, weak and low spirited, it will
prove a grateful aromatic cord.al, possessed of singular retn

CAUTION!
The great popularity of thisdeiightiul aroma has induced
