This Eluant Stomach Bitters, Composed Entiuki.y of Roots and Herbs, and compounded with the best of Sherry Wink, requires no panegyric to establish its frame. Its increasing de mand for the past seven years throughout the United States in private familes, and all the principal Hotels, being a sufficient test of its efficacy in restoring the tone aud nervous energy of the various organs contributing to digestion. Possessing the valuable properties of an Alterative, Antispeptie and Aromatic Bitter, it gently excites the secretions of the gaatiejuice, invigorates the spirits, removes from the blood the germs ot disease, and increases the nervous energy of all the vital powers. Its effects during the rage of the cholera in 1819 were most extraordinary. As a preventive and a cure it proved alike reliable; and the testimony in favor is of the most incontrovertible and emphatic character. It is warmly recommended by the faculty, whose opinions of its merits is corroborated by fact which cannot be -sha ken or disputed. The proprietor does not offer tilt in to the public ns a cure for every disease which flesh is heir to; but simply aud with the full assurance, Tiiatitisthe Best Preparation icier Offered to the Public as a Purifier of the System. But it is the condition of the stomach and the system generally—not the name of the disease—which must be taken into consideration in using it, as there is scarcely a single complaint in which it cannot be advantageously used. It is especially recommended to ladies of delicate habit, as an in valuable tonic and restorative to all the exigencies peculiar to the weakersex, and affords great relief in eases when taken to relieve uneasiness after meals. It is pleasant to the taste, efficacious in its design, and no person, after giving it a fair trial, will ever De without them as a preventive, and also a remedy for the above complaints, so long as money can buy them.

At the Knight Templar dinner, on the occasion of the late Statue Inauguration, at Richmond, Mr. Robert Mokriss of Kentucky, being called upon, recited the following admirable poem: The jolts of life are many, As we dash along ihe track; Its ways are rough arid rugged, And our bones they sorely rack. We’re tossed about, We’re in and out, We make a mighty pother; Far less would be Our pains, if we Would lean towards each other. Behold you loving couple, Just started for a life! What care they for Jolting, That happy man r nd wife! The cars may jump, Their heads may bump. And jostle one another, They only smile. And try the while, To lean towards each other! Woe to the luckless traveler. Who journeys all alone; Well said the wise Solomon, “Two better is than one.” For when the ground’s Most rugged found, And greatest the pain and pother; He cannot break The sorest ache By leaning on another. There is not one in ten thousand Of all the cares we mourn, But what, if ’twas divided, Might easily be borne. If we but learn, When fortunes turn, To share them with a Brother, We d prove how good Our Brother hood, By leaning towards each other. How He Came (o be Harried. It may be funny, but I’ve done it. I’ve got a rib and baby. Shadows departed —oyster stews, brandy cock-tails; segar- boxes boot-jacks, absconding shirt buttons whist and dominoes. Shadow's present hoop skirts, band-boxes, ribons, gaiters long stoekings, juvenile dresses, tin trum pets, little willow chairs, cradles, bibs, pap sugar teats, paregoric, hive syrup, castor oil, Godfrey’s cordial, soothing syrup rhu barb senna, salts, squills and doctor’s bill Shadow's future-^more nine pound babies more hive syrup, etc., etc* I’ll just tell you bow I got caught. I was always the durndest, most tea custard, bashful fellow you ever did see; it w'as kinder in my line to be taken with the shakes every time I saw a pretty girl approaching me, and I’d cross the street any time rather than face one; it wasn’t because I didn’t like the critters, for if I was behind a fence, look ing through a knot bole, I couldn’t look at one long enough. Well my sister Lib gave a party one night, and I stayed away from home because I was too bashful to face the music. I bung around tbe house whistling “Old Dan Tucker,” dancing to keep my feet warm, watching tbe beads bobbing up and down beltind the window- curtains, and wishing tbe thundering par ty would break up so I could get to my room. I smoked a bunch of segars, and as it w-as getting late and mighty uncom fortable, I concluded to shin up tbe door post. No sooner said than done, and soon found myself snug in bed. “Now,” says I, “let her rip. Druce till your wiud gives out!” And cuddling under quilts Morpheus grabbed me. I was dreaming ofsoft-shell crabs aud stewed tripe, and was having a good time of it. when some body knocked at the aour and w-oke me up. “Rap” again- I laid low. “Rap, rap, rap,!” Then I hoard a whispering, and! knew there was a whole raft of girls outside. “Rap, rap” then Lib sings out, ‘Jack are you there!” “Yes,” says I. Then came a roar of laughter. “Let us in,” says site. “I won’t” says I; “can’t you let a fellow alone?” “Are you abed? says she. “Iam” says I “Get up,’, says she. “I won’t” says I. Then another laugh. By thunder! I began to get riled. “Get out you petticoated scarecrow!” I cried, “cant you get a beau without haul ing a fellow- out of bed? I won’t go home with you—I won’t—so you may clear out!” And throwing a boot at tbe door, I felt better But presently, oh! mortal but tons! I beard a still, small voice, very much like sister Lib’s audit said; “Jack, you’ll have to get up, for all the girl’s things are in there!” Oh! Lord, w-liat a pickle! Think of me in bed, all covered with shawls, muffs, bonnets and cloaks, and tw enty girls outside tbe door waiting to get in tberoom! If I had stopped to think, I should have pancaked on tbe spot. As it was, I rolled out among the bonnet ware and ribbons in a hurry.— Smash!” went the millinery in every di rection. I bad to dress in the dark—for there was a crack in the door, and the girls will peep, and the way I fumbled about was death on straw hats. The moment came. I opened the door and found myself right among the women.— “Oh my Leghorn,’’cried one. “My dear, darling winter velvet,” cried another: and they pitched. They pulled me this way and that, boxed my ears, and one bright eyed little piece—Sal, her name was — put her arms around my neck, and kissed me right on my lips. Human nature couldn’t stand that, and I gave her as good as she sent. It was the first time I got a taste, and it was powerful good. I believe I could have kissed that gal from Julius Oresar to the 4th of July. “Jack,” 6aid she, “we are sorry to disturb you. hut won’t you see me home?’, “les,” said I, I will.” I did do it, and had another smack at the gate, too. After that, we took o kinder turtlc-doving after each other, both of us sighing like a barrel of new cider, when we were away from each other. It w-as at the close of a glorious summer day—the sun was setting behind a distant hog pen—the chickens were going to roost —the hull-frogs were commencing their evening songs—the polly-wogs, in their native mud-puddles, were preparing them selves for the shades of night—and Sal and myself sat upon an antiquated back log listening to the music of nature, 6uch as tree-toads, roosters, aud grunting pigs, and now- and then the mellow music of a jackass was wafted to our ears by the gen tle zephyrs that sighed among the mullin stalks that came heavy laden with the de licious odor of hen rcosts and yig-stys.— The last lingering rays of the setting sun, glancing from the brass buttons of a soli tary horseman, shown through a knot-hole in the hog-pen full in Sal’s face dying her hair with an orange peel hue, and show ing off my thread b ire coat to bad advan tage. One of my arms «*as around Sal s waist, my hand resting on the«mall of her hack—she was toying with my aubnrn locks of jet black hue—she was a most gone and I was ditto. She looked like a grasshopper dying with the hiccups, and 1 felt like a mud turtle choked with a cod fish ball. “Sal,” says I, in a voice musi cal as the notes of a dying swan, “will you have me?” She turned her eyes heaven ward, clasped me by the hand, had an at tack of the heaves and blind staggers, and with a sigh that drew her shoe-string to her palate, said: “Yes!” She gave clear out, then, and squatted in mv lap—she corkscrewed and 1 curflumuxed and rolled in it. I hugged her until I broke my sus penders, and her breath smelt of onions which she ate the w eek before. Well, to make a long story short, she set the day, and we practiced for four weeks every night, how we would walk into the room to be married, till we got so we could walk as graceful as a couple of Muscovy ducks! The night, the company, and the minister came, the signal was given, and arm in arm we marched through the crowded hall.— We were just entering the parlor door, when down I went, kerslap on the oilcloth pulling Sail after me. Some enssed fellow dropped a banana skin on the floor and floored me. It split an awful hole in my cassimers right under my dress coat tail. It w-as too late to hack out so clapping my hands over it, we marched in and were spliced,and taking a seat I watched the kissing bride operation. My groomsman was tight, and he kissed her till I jumped up to take a slice, when, oh, horror! a little six year old imp had crawled up behind me, and pulling my shirt through the hole in my pants had pinned it to the cliair and in jumping up, I displayed to the ad miring gaxe of the astonished multitude a trifle more w hite musliu that was allow able. and was finally put to bed, and there my troubles ended! Good-night. ^Correspondent of the N- Y. Journal of Commerce.] Spring Fashion in Pari*. The season of Lent has put an end, for the present, to tbe gaieties, and our mod istes and mantua-makers are now occupied in preparing day toilettes, costumes for the streets, for morning concerts, and for the small reunions which enliven this season of penitential exercises. Madame Faucet, No. 4 Rue du Menars, makes as walking dresses many black or dark green, brown, blue, or violet silks, covered with velvet spots, and ornamented with velvet bands. The high body is buttoned down the front with small velvet buttons: The waist, without basques, is slightly pointed and rounded off in front of the waist. Two vel vet bias pieces begin from the and form reverse up the body, and are continued down behind. The upper edge aloue of these velvets are sewed down to the body. The sleeves are cut straigh* way of the stuff; it is short and rounds off gracefully, being long est behind; two velvets laid on flat trim the bottom of the sleeves, with an interval between. The inside of the sleeve is lined with white silk, and trimed at the edge with a narrow fluted ruche, part of which projects beyond the edge. There are two skirts; the upper one or tunic is deco rated on each side with two black-velvet pyramids, four inches wide at the edge of the skirt, and placed about six inches apart; tbe under and long skirt is trimmed the same as the tunic, and bordered at the bottom by a velvet turned over the edge. The fashionable bonnets for the early spring months—March and April—are those of crape and lace. Our favorite modiste’ Madam Alphonsine, 12 Rue do Helder, mingles with the crape and lace velvet trimmings anil hands, which give a more wintery aspect to the bonnet, and renders them more in unison with the cold winds and snowy temper-ature from which we are suffering. For full dress, white royal velvet, with bias pieces of plaid vel vet round the front and curtain, are much in vogue. The crown of white royal vel vet is surrounded by a plaid cord, from which hang two tassels ; the inside is of white blonde, with a flat bandeau of plaid velvet, and is completed by a cord and tassel. The celebrated perfumer, Faguer, 83 Rue de Richelieu, has lately offered to his numerous customers several varieties of gloves. Those of Spanish leather em broidered, and with a cuff to protect the wrist from cold or the sun, are a novelty, both useful and ornamental. Those of the finest peau de chevreau are cut so as to fit perfectly the hand, and sewed with ex treme neatness, a rare and precious quali ty, and necessary to the beauty and dura bility of a glove, ——i How to Live Cheaply. We have not reached that question be fore, in our social history; but now it looks as if the subject was going to be pretty throughly discussed, and would finally find a proper solution. It is time, and high time, that we should begin to study econo my. We are the most extravagant people on the face of the earth. The Providence Journal has an excellent article to this point, in which it says that conspicuous among the things in which they heat all creation, is the manner in which the Ame rican people waste their food. The waste of an American kitchen would feed a Freneh family of equal size and equal station in life. Laboring men throw away in extravagant superfluity the means of making old age independent and comforta ble, and men of large incomes waste in pro portion At the present prices, about eighty cents a w'eek, judiciously expended, will supply a strong laboring man with a sufficiency of wholesome aud palatable food; such as In dian meal, pork, beans, salt fish, meat soup, which properly varied and properly cook ed, are good enough for anybody in hard times. Half the butter that is eaten is not only unwholesome, but were not the appetite perverted by the constant use of it, would he disagreeable to the taste. Men get accustomed to it as they do tobac co and rum. Too little attention has been paid to the economy of food in our country. Scien tific men do not appreciate its importance, aud sometimes feel that it is beneath them, as though it was not one of the most im portant subjects in the philosophy of life. But he who shows how greater nourish ment may he obtained out of a potato, or how bread may he prepared so as to give the greatest sustenance and with the least danger to health, renders a greater service than he who makes an indefinite number of political platforms. These things are worth heeding now.—, They will bring peace to many a poor man’s mind who hardly sees his way through the world, and encourage many whose hope had begun to run low. We must all try to live more sensibly and more prudent. The Winter in Europe.—Contrary to the experience of early midwinter on this side of the Atlantic, those seasons in Europe have this year been remarkably severe, even in rather Southern latitudes. In the Island of Malta, which is not far from the African coast, the snow was several feet deep, aud this was the first snow storm of consequence there since 1812, a year that will be ever memorable for the disastrous Russian campaign of the first Napoleon. At Constantinople, up to. the 3d ult., snow fell for fifteen days in succession, and so terrible a winter had not heen experienced in Turkey for twenty years. The navigation with Odessa was entirely closed, and even the Creek Islands were clothed in white. For the first time in a century the river Po, in Italy, haa been frozen tight, so that men, horses and wehicles passed ove* its surface. In Smyrna; generally so free from winter, the frost and snow have occasioned much in convenience and suffering. In many oft* 1 ® towns of Turkey and Greece the roofs of houses had fallen in from the weight of snow accumulated upon them. Ihis re minds us of the records of former ages, when, between the years 1000 and U0J, tkto Tiber and even the Adriatic bea were several times frozen hard—the latter near Venice and Trieste.
