I One Word to Subacribera and Post Masters. In remitting us money be sure to mention, at the top of your letter, the name of the office at which you receive the paper, and at the bottom, write, in a plain hand, your own signature. In directing your address changed, give usthename of the office to which the paper is to be discon tinued, as well as the one to which you desire it changed. When you wish your paper discontin ued, always address us a gentlemanly note, in quiring the amount you are due for arrears, and having settled that, your order will be promptly executed. To refuse the paper at the post office, when you wish it discontinued, is not the proper course to be pursued. When a post master deems it necessary to return a paper to the proprietor, he should be very careful to write on the margin the name of the office. A strict observance of these suggestions, by those to whom they are addressed, will save all concerned a vast deal of unnecessary trouble, and much annoying vexation. SAUCT KATE AHD THE WIDOWERS AGAIN. “Kate,” the saucy Poetess who created such a stir among the widowers, by an address to them through the columns of this paper during the latter portion of last year, is out again in this issue, with a reply to the numerous propo sals received by her from that large and most respectable body of sufferers, the widowers. She received responses from almost everywhere, and now she replies to them, all at once, or at least to all whom she failed to answer by letter. The reply will amply repay any one for a peru sal, and we insist upon its being read by all. Its ingenuity and easy flow are worthy of admira tion. Syrup—White Drippings. On yesterday a greasy, monster-looking jug, seemingly filled with old “tangle-foot,” made its appearance in the door of our sanctum, and just as we were about to make an onslaught upon it with our shelalah, the bearer, our young friend, T. B. Vesey, stated that it was a present from Mr. F. 11. Coleman, of a gallon of superfine syr up, called the “white drippings.” Did you ever hear of it ? Did you ever see, taste or use it ? If not, then you know nothing of the excellency which is sometimes reached in the manufacture of syrup, and we would advise you to go imme diately to friend Coleman’s and lay in a small quantity. He has just received one barrel of it, and his liberal and unselfish heart prompted him to compliment us with a full gallon. It is the drippings refined, from the best clarified A sugar, looks almo like honey, and is far superior to anything we have ever seen in the way of syr ups. Cos forthwith to Coleman’s and secure some, for it is a rarity in Atlanta, and will soon be sold. Price $1 25 per gallon. Our generous friend need not be told that his favor was most gratefully appreciated. The Paper with the Largest Circulation in the State. In our advertising columns, under the head of “New Business,” will be seen an advertisement from New York, in which inquiry is made after a couple of men who emigrated from that State to Georgia a great many years ago. The adver tiser sent the notice to a gentleman ofColumbus, it this State, requesting him to have it advertised in the paper which has the largest circulation, and he has forwarded it to the Crusader, with the statement that “he knew ofno paper which creeps into as many corners.” It is quite acompliment to our paper; but while we may not have the largest circulation of any of our cotemporaries, it is perhaps more true than otherwise, that the pa per is seen by as many, or more, people, owing to the fact that it circulation is generally dis tributed—confined to no section nor sections of the State; but, as our friend says, “it creeps into almost every nook and corner.” We have a very fine circulation in Alabama—also in Florida, Mississippi, Texas and South Carolina ; a few copies go to almost every State in the Union. our friends would labor in our behalf a very little ’ we might soon boast of a subscription list equal to those of our leading northern papers. But we wish to call special attention to the advertisement above mentioned. M- LEO TAYLOR. This world-renowned Oriental Wizzard and Ventriloquist, is now exhibiting his skill in leg erdemain at the Athenium. He is among the best we have ever seen, which, together with his good humor and extreme politeness, make his en tertainments decidedly attractive. We would ad vise all to go and see his feats. A HERCULEAN TASK. Mr. J. J. Washington Hall, one of our most thorough-going citizens, is having a house built, we might say, for the especial ac commodation of the Medical party to be given in this city on the 13th of next monih. The time from the commencement of the work to the time at which the building will be called into requisi tion, is but little more than three weeks, yet it is to be completed, or else money is to be forfeited by the contractor. They have about fifty hands at work, and the house is going up as if by mag ic; and judging from the progress made with it in two days, it will be ready in ample time. This is what we call rearing houses “with a rush.” A NEW RAILROAD EXCITEMENT. A couple of freight trains, one belonging to the Macon and the other the Georgia Road, met on the track, this morning, just at our street cross ing, and each refused to back an inch—both con tending for the “right of way.” A large crowd collected around them, eager tosee the result. The engines remained several hours in this statu quo predicament, and would perhaps have stood there a week, rather than compromise their stubborn ness ; but our Marshals, assisted by sufficient force, uncoupled a box-car from one of the trains and pushed it back so the engine could switch off on its own track, without requiring the other to back. The difficulty was thus adjusted without either engine giving way to the other. The following warm expressions of encourage ment, coming, as they do, from a high source and altogether unexpected, are most gratefully appre ciated by the editors of this paper: Generosity from Strangers. Messrs. Editors of the Temperance Crusader : Gentlemen —You will accept my grateful acknowledgements for your disinterested kind ness in sending me your beautiful and rich pa per. It is a weekly treat to hold communion with such a sheet. I should dislike, myself, if I were incapable of appreciating such kindness &om strangers. If merit he the law of success, you must succeed, whether estimated by the “goodness of the cause advocated, the literary taste and chaste style of doing it, or from the beauty of the form and execution of the work. May the Crusader, in the cause it advocates, be come the light of a nation, and its editors mod els to the craft, in courtesy and kindness to the brotherhood editorial. Please, gentlemen, accept my kind regards for each of you, with my begt wishes for your suc cess in your calling.’ ‘ Most repect’ly, yours, &c. Atlanta. J. B. PAYNE. We went down to Buckley St, Co’s street exhi bition of a fellow walking the rope, and as he ad vanced and began to get pretty high up, an old lady drew off, and with one hand clapped to her j J can't stand it; my heart', POLITICS AND TEMPERANCE. Again has the caldron of political agitation be gan to boil and bubble. Throughout every por tion of our country, theh eated ebnllition increases and expands. Over it the ambitious demagogue, and wire-working politician, bends, zealously practising his incantations, and gloating with deep inward delight at the success of his spells. Soon each party will have chosen their standard bearer, and arranged themselves rank and file un der his banner. To promote the election ol their candidate nothing will be left undone, which la bor can accomplish, or intrigue effect. A great crisis will soon arrive; one in which the prosper ity, safety, nay the very existence of our govern ment will be endangered. Political speakers of every shade of opinion will canvass the land, de claring that if the people do not vote as they say, the country will be eternally ruined. And what do they strive for in all this ? Any great good which will be of lasting benefit to the country and place its interests on a firmer basis ? No; they strive for a mere nominal triumph for their party, and appointments to offices in which they can do as they please while their party is in power. And to gain these little, petty, pitiful ends, they strain every nerve exert every muscle, leaving nothing untried to promote their cause. What part or interest can the philanthropist take in these movements ? Can he give his aid to in crease convulsions, which are perilous to the safety and fatal to ihe interests of society? He should rather seek to still the tumult, to cast his influence like oil upon the raging waters and in duce men to think without passion or prejudice of the subjects presented for their consideration. He cannot, without the greatest inconsistency, raise the hosanna of praise in the Temple of the demagogue. He should stand aloof from the popular excitement, nor let his voice be heard, save in warning and expostulation. If such be the only consistent course left for philanthropists generally.it is so in a still higher degree with Temperance men, who have banded themselves together for a work of humanity and love. It matters not to them which party tri umphs in the contest; both are equally opposed to them. There is nought which they can ex pect to gain from the wiles of political intrigue. As Americans, it is their privilege and duty to vote as they think best upon all issues which are presented to them; as temperance men, they should labor without ceasing for the advance ment of their cause. It is a deceptive sophism that they should remain inactive, while political agitation is extant. The interest of the cause demands a continued and ceaseless vigilance on the part ot its friends. We confidently believe, that were they to cast all other considerations aside, and labor with energy and perseverance at all times, we would triumph and that right speed ily. SAD CASUALTY. We regret to learn says the Staunton, (Ya.) Gazette, that a youth, named Geo. L. Walker, son of a widow lady, residing in the State, met with a sad accident, on Saturday last, while on a gunning excursion, in Albemarle county. In company with two or three fellow pupils of Greenwood Academy, young Walker started out to shoot a few birds, having in his possession a gun, the cock cf which was in bad older. After getting on the hill side, he discovered a dove be low him, and started down to shoot it. The bird flew before he got within gun-shot range, and he was seen to raise his fowling-piece, but after wards to lower it, and immediately thereafter an explosion took place. One of his companions, seeing his cap blown into the air, hastened to him, and found that the shot had cut his chin and nose, and, entering his forehead, had blown out his brains, killing him instantly. This noble youth and his amiable mother are well known by many of the citizhns of Atlanta, and they will deeply regret the sad misfortune which has befallen him. His mother lived for him alone, he being her only child—her whole soul and all her tenderest affections were centered in him ; who can but mourn, in view of these facts, at her sudden and untimely bereavement ? She had sent him to Virginia and entered him in a high School, and from a letter written by the teacher to her, he regarded him as an excellent youth, good natured and a good scholar. We very much regret the calamity—having had the pleasure of a limited acquaintance with him and his mother, and she certainly has our warmest and most heartfelt sympathies. THAT NEW DRUG STORE. While hurrying up the street on yesterday af ternoon, we accidentally dropped in, en passant, with a friend, at the New Drug Store of Messrs. Hunnicutt & Taylor, and goodness gracious, save us ! We could but exclaim : In the name of the whole heathen mythology, Esculapius and his father Apollo, where are ive? We stood in the prettiest, handsomest, tastiest, most suparb, magnificent, beautiful, brilliant,shining,splendid, resplendent, gorgeous, elegant, and artistic store in the Southern country; and it was some little time before we could realize the fact that we stood in abuilding which belonged to Atlanta. It was the case, however, and we venture the as sertion that there is nothing in the way of a Drug Store, this side of Philadelphia, that can sustain any kind of a comparison with it. The taste manifested by the proprietors in labelling and arranging their bottles, is truly admirable; and we opine it would be physically and morally impossible for a sick person to enter this estab lisnment without feeling healed from head to foot. Let the monster, disease, but catch a sight of this brilliant display of tinctures, opiates, et cet, ready to be discharged at him, and like Crocket’s Coon, he will crawl off without being fired at. We were introduced to Mr. Collier the owner of this city ornament, and could but draw a painful contrast between his appearance and that of his house. He wears cotton jeans, bro gans, and his head and face are almost entirely swallowed up in an old beaver-skin cap, which has dpubtless served him for the last ten or fif teen years. He has, however, a pleasant coun tenance, loves money we are told, has a plenty of it, and is no doubt a clever gentleman. His tenants, Messrs. Hunnicutt & Taylor, are fine specimens of mankind, in physiognomy, heart and soul; they have a glorious Drug Store, and we trust Jupiter will never strike it with his thunderbolts, as he did Esculapius at the request of Pluto, because of his restoring so many peo ple to health. INVITATIONS TO TEMPERANCE SPEAKERS. We wish here to suggest an idea which will be of great benefit to temperance organizations, generally, and it relates to a matter, in regard to which they have been universally negligent, and for which they are deserving more or less of censure. We allude to the fact of their omit ting or refusing to defray the expenses of those whom they invite io come and lecture or address them upon the principles of their order. They would willingly suffer a poor speaker to expend what little money he may have, on the railroad, in getting to them, and then exhaust his breath, strength and talents, in pleading for the justice of their cause, and urging them to greater exertions in behalf of its promotion. This, all must ad mit, to be wrong in fact, erroneous in policy, il liberal in principle, and prejudicial to the inter ests of the cause. Temperance speeches are needed at all times, and they can always be ob tained if the friends of the enterprise will mani fest the right kind of liberality. We believe no thing more is necessary than a simple suggestion of this kind, to awaken the zealous advocates of temperance to a proper knowledge of their duty in the premises. Whenever you invite a speaker to visit you for the purpose of giving you a talk, alw'ays inform him whether or not, you are wil ling and intend to relieve him from cost; for if he be worthy of your attentions as a speaker, he is worthy of such relief; and if he be a man of business, and deficient in means, as temperance speakers, are, almost universally, he is poorly able to serve people abroad, at a heayy expense to himself, pecuniarily, physically and mentally. Will not our arguments upon this point be ap-. predated? We hope so. And it would rejoice us most wonderfully to hear of a grand celebra tion by every temperance organization in the Southern Country, during the Spring and Sum mer. Go to work and get them up, and if you have no good speaker in your midst, open your purses and send out ior one. There are hun dreds of them in Georgia, ready to serve you at 1 a moments warning. THEE GEORGIA TEMPERANCE CRUSADER. Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative. We call the reader’s attention to the advertise ment of this great hair invigorator, in our columns this morning. We find the following notice of it in the Montgomery Advertiser, of March 7, 1859: For the year past we have been advertising Wood’s Hair Restorative, and month by month its sale has gradually increased, until it now commands a more ready sale than any other ar ticle of its kind, giving in almost every instance entire satisfaction. A clergyman, resident in a neighboring town, who had for years suffered from a burning sensation in the head, with an occasional dry, itching humor, which prema turely turned the hair gray, and iatterly causing it to come oft'rapidly, leaving the crown nearly bare, seeing the advertisement of the article in the Advertiser, was induced to try it, and now, after the use of two bottles only, his hair has turned quite dark and is very soft, the scalp clean, and the Recently bald spots covered with a beautiful growth of silky dark hair, the sight of which with his commendation of the Restorative, will command an increased sale. We would state to any who may wish to know, that we are permitted, privately, to give the name of the indi vidual to whose case we refer. Ancient Human Relics. —Our English ex changes of the last dates report the following : Discovery of Ancient Human Remains. —An in teresting discovery was made the other day on the estate of Sir George Pampson.at Thurnham. While some men were engaged in leveling a chalk mound in a field, after digging to the depth of about four or five feet, they found the remains of a number of human beings lying in a circle, in regular order, round the mound, with their heads pointing to the centre, and the feet of others meeting the heads of those placed in the outside row-. The remains of a horse were also found lying with them, but there were no relics of any description to indicate to what people of a by gone age they belonged. The bones were in a remarkable state of preservation, considering the length of time the bodies must needs have been deposited there—certainly not less than fifteen hundred years. The remains of seven bodies were found in the space of about three rods, and by far the greater portion of the mound still re mains undisturbed. The place of ancient sepul ture is situated but a short distance below the ruins of the ancient fortification known as Go dard’s Castle, from it having, as some authorities tell us, been built by Godardus, a Saxon. Mr. Seals: Allow me to give you a few re flections from this agreeable little town, and if you see proper you may turn them over to your printer ; if not, why, blot them out. I see that Valentine’s suggestion is called—a happy idea—a timely one, and will be acted upon, without fail, in such a strain of eloquence as to lay your “booming temperance leader of last week completely in the shade.” Thank you, Mrs. Bryan. But Valentine feels too unworthy to lay claim to the smallest degree of merit com ing from the suggestion of any idea or argument going to vindicate a temperance reform. His only object was, to arouse a zealous adversary in some department of the Crusader, who would raise a flood-gate through which the filth of to bacco, and “especially its modification of snuff,” may be washed away; for I tell—but hold; it is not my intention to lay any farther claim to the afflatus that will blow away the poison that be longs to the cursed practice of dipping; but I gladly lay it down at the feet cf one Mrs. Bryan, who is better capacitated to interest and benefit your readers than myself. But, Mr. Editor, here is what I took up my pen to write: Since taking up the’ duties of my work for the present year, I have been somewhat astonished to find the people generally, of this coun ty, living without the useful information impar ted by a religious newspaper. How any man can consent lor his family to be without a religious newspaper, is an enigma to me. They have no thing new and interesting, nor have they much religion. ’ Shut me up in solitude, but, Messrs. Editors, send me the newspapers and I will be a cosmop olite. A man may live in the backwoods, and walk miles to the post-office once a week for his papers, and be as familiar with the literature and business of the world as those carrying out its operations; but why should a people, living on a railroad as these are, live without religious pa pers ? Ah! Mr. Editor, why ? Perhaps it is be cause the leading ones do not enforce the precept by the example ; perhaps it is because the mass have grown cold, and want someone to present the matter and arouse them up. Both I am do ing, and have had good success in behalf of the Southern Christian Advocate. But my Crusader has a lonely travel, as no one but myself, in this county, takes it. But why not? I have shown the Crusader wherever I have gone, and all praise it. I have not solicited subscribers, because lam not its agent in this respect. If you would send down an agent, he might do wonders. You ought to send one. Send a gentleman—an intel ligent man—a Christian— a good looking, good temperance lecturer, and one who will please the ladies, with his arms full of Crusaders, so that lie may spread them broadcast, and I tell you his commission will pay handsomely. Where is “Uncle Dabney” ? Why cannot he come? He can fill every qualification which I have mentioned. He is a gentleman, intelligent, religious, good looking and as good a temperance messenger as you have ; tell him to take this in his schedule. When I inform you that we quarrel, are pro fane, drink, get drunk, fight and sometimes kill, why do not back from us? When I give you the name of our town, do not think us hopeless, for we are not half as bad at home as our name is abroad. Our people are a church-going people, and if we can get them to lake a few more pa pers, they will be more intelligent and religious. They are willing to greet light and intelligence from the East or any other source; should it boom from the hellish precincts of Cincinnati, they would make the best of it they could. Now, Mr. Editor, I have a suggestion to make to you. Ido not wish to assume a perogative out of my line, by becoming your compiler in the way of selecting subjects ; yet, it occurs to me that there is a piece of material you would do well to work on. But in doing this, you will be answering a fool according to his folly, which we are commanded to do in some cases. In advocating temperance societies, and urging people to join rhem, I am met with something like this : ‘We are temperance men, and if your societies were temperate only, we would join them ; but you ask us to join temperance soc ie ties, and then make us take a pledge of absti nence.” T suppose you see, Mr. Seals, what I am after? If you have an article in your head on this sub ject, I would be glad to see it in the Crusader. “VALENTINE.” Although the sweet influences of Pleiades have been unbound, and the returning summer’s sun has brought us myriads of bright and beautiful flowers, whose fragrant essences are poured out, with the most lavish profusion, upon each pass ing zephyr, and by the genial warmth of his spring-tide rays have the little feathered song sters been invited once more to return to cheer and enliven us with their silvery wood-notes that ring, from morn till night, in accents “melf lifluously bland” ; yet, that ever-dreaded visitor, “Jack Frost,” made his very unwelcome and disagreeable appearance here a few nights ago. I believe, however, it was only on the low, flat places that he permitted his hoary locks to kiss young vegetation—little or no injury being sus tained by the young fruit crop—the most of which is now in full bloom. If the bright blue sky was not so continually shrouded in dark and threat niiig clouds, the country would present a sub limely beautiful appearance now. To gaze upon the far-off landscape, and mark the lovely and beauteous contrast of the deep pink and crimson hued flowers with ihose of immaculate whiteness, with an occasional field of green interspersed be tween, is enough to make the most insensible to nature’s lovely charms exclaim, with fond admi ration, “How beautiful—how lovely !” The sky, even while I am writing, is dark and lowering, though the earth is drenched in water, and the high hills are become the dwelling-places of the croaking frogs; yet/ the Heavens still wear the same gloomy, humid cast that has marked it for almost the entire winter. The planters are all busy, now, in planting, notwith standing the unfitness of the soil for their grain’s reception, the consequence of which doubtless will be the trouble of re-planting. The growing wheat crop looks quite promising, and despite the gloomy effects of an overcast sky, it gives the face of the country a most glorious and happy appearance. Your mend, COR. Marion, March, 1859. A REPLY TO THE WIDOWERS. BY KATE. I’m here, my widower friends, again ; And though I’ve long in silence lain. Don’t think it strange or very queer That I, at last, should re-appear. Yes, I am here, my friends, once more, And just as saucy as before. And tho’ I’ve silence kept so long. I’m sure I meant to no one wrong, But thought I’d give all time to speak Who my acquaintance wished to seek, And when convinced you all were through, I’d then reply to each of you. But now don’t think it would be wise ; The number’s grown to such a size My time and space I find too small To even briefly mention all! And should any name be missed That’s on my correspondence list, Just think ’tis for the want of time That you’re not mentioned in my rhyme ; I mean to no one disrespect, And none would purposely neglect. I honor widowers, as a class, But, ah! me, what a mighty mass Ot Billets of a recent date, You’ve sent to puzzle Saury Kate ! A few do public merit claim— Many by private medium came — Some are witty, some sublime, Some in prose and some in rhyme, Some assume a serious tone, Others are full ofjest and fun. Various as the rainbow’s hue Are clothed the ideas brought to view. Ah ! yes, how variously expressed ; Yet each, in turn, does interest. How much alike the light, the shade, The sentiments by you portrayed— How much alike a garden fair With variegated flowrets there ? Again, how like a wild wood scene, W here gloom and sunshine intervene ? The picture,as a whole I find A pleasant study to the mmd. Take but a superficial glance It does amuse, delight, entrance; But when I look with steadier eye, I feel instruction gained thereby. My friends, ’tis flattering I declare, Your kind attention thus to share; And with permission from you now, I make to each my prettiest bow. The case before me to inspect— Each character in turn, dissect— As ’tis presented to my view, In those kind billets sent by you. ’Tis thus I judge of you alone, For personally you’ie all unknown ; And as such, you can’t deny I view you with impartial eye, And now proceed, without delay, To tell you what I have to say: To you who boast a foreign name, And o’er the broad Atlantic came, And of your “dear piano” tell — And the “sweet cottage,” where you dwell, Let me beg leave to say, just here, Though I esteem e.cli foreigner, Who acts an honest, upright part, How many wears a treacherous heart, And since so many do deceive, How can I any one believe ? Music hath power,’tis true, to charm, And e’en the savage bosom warm— Imparts a witchery, a bliss, But we can’t live on things like this. No, nature’s wants much more require, Wholesome food and warm attire. When less substantial joys console, There’s music in the poet’s soul, There’s music in the zephy’s low, And in the gentle streamlets flow— In the ocean—in the air— Oh ! yes, there’s music everywhere. That little cottage speaks of joy— Domestic peace without alloy— And where the humble might be blest. This wins me more than all the rest, But well I know we can’t agree, Sol will turn away from thee, To one who boasts of strength and size— To you who dwell ’neath Georgia skies, Among the swamps of Washington. My friend you seem inclined to fun, And might the blues perhaps, dispel, But of no occupation tell. Have you no calling, trade or place, Or think you labor’s a disgrace ? A disgrace ! 1 cannot bear The useless drone I do declare— I envy not that man his life, Who is not a hero in the strife— Who does not in the battle fight, Against the wrong and for the right. When there is so much to do, Both for ourselves and others, too, Who’d on beds of roses lie— See vice to flourish, virtue die ? Such an one I could not trust; No, rather let us rub than rust; For such an one we were designed. Both with the hands and with the.mind Who labors not in such a cause, Contrary acts to nature’s laws. Be ye gentle, be ye rude, Who no exertion makes lor good, May rest assured you disobey Heaven’s commands, and on that day, When God shall judge the quick and dead, The doom of all shall then be read, And those who act not here their part, Will be, “ye cursed from me depart.” Excuse me if I’ve spoken plain— I hope I have not given pain ; And please upon my words reflect. I’ll now another case inspect. To you, of Memphis, Tennesse, Who write so very pleasantly, I think that some attention’s due, If only half you say betrue. “Your reputation, honored name— A lawyer of no common fame— Your kind address, your manners free,” All this is just as it should be. And well you know your cause to plead— Your eloquence is great, indeed, And then you have a cunning way To make of it such grand display ! But if exerted in the cause Os virtue and your country’s laws, If from the words ot wisdom learn, ’Twixt truth and error to discern, And like the fabled goddess stand With seals of justice in your hand, With man’s condition out of sight, Weigh their acts, their deads, aright, With not one selfish end in view, Ido esteem—l honor you ! And if, on the other hand, You the right should understand, And the cause espouse instead, Os darkened crime and error dread — Falsehood with eloquence unite, To try to prove that black is white; Or quibble like with varnished cheek, In either cause consent to speak Just as in your sordid eyes The fee appears of proper size, Language is powerless to reveal The great contempt tor you I feel; And when you’ve crossed the river Styx You’ll doubtless be in such a fix, That you would give your largest fee . Tartarus climes no more to see— Give all your eloquenee and power To gain the fair elysium bower; But I trust this picture’s not of thee— You in the former one I see. But let me hasten on my way— Another character portray: On you. now of the old North State, Young Esculapius, I’ll await. Follower of those ancient men, Hippocrates and Galen, You who’ve gleaned from dead men’s brains An art to heal the sufferer’s pains— A science learned by .which you can Do good, and aid thy fellow man, ’Gainst thy profession I have nought— ’Tisone the good and wise have sought, But has been much abused of late, In this and many another State ; But if with philanthropic view It has been sought and practiced too — If with the same intent you go Where’er you hear the sound of woe— In lazar house—in prison wall— In lowly cot or lordly hall— Who, at the post oi mercy’s found, Has my respect the most, profound. And prayer from many a grateful breast Shall rise above to make thee blest. So well I love the noble deed, That the physician might succeed. But then there’s many quacks abroad, Who their own merits loudly laud, Who ne’er an author has read o’er, Or entered through a collegedoor, But with an undue weight of brass, Impose upon the ignorant class— Resort to trickery and crime— Just anything to make a dime. If you class along with these. Rest assured you could not please ; And many such we all mry see, Who wears the title of M. D. But those, be sure, who don’t adorn This good profeßson have my scorn. I do admire the “stately mien— The attire that is neat and clean,” And must approve, I can’t deny, “The soul with aspirations high.” But Esculapius, now adieu. The merchant, next, I bring to view: To you who wrote that charming dittv From out a distant southern city. From what you say and what I hear, You are a merchant I infer— A wholesale dealer in the ait— The fair exchange of heart for heart. “No robbery’s in the fair exchange,” The proverb says, but then ’tis strange That you a fair exchange would give, You who by speculation live; Fur e’en the honost merchants make A profit; otherwise, they break. All may be so that you’ve confeat, But then it all may be a jest. Youspuzzle me, indeed you do— More, I believe than I did you. I No hatred I for merchants feel, Who honestly and fairly deal, But those who trick, and lie and cheat, And use with customers deceit, When a subjects found begin With honeyed words to take them in ; f*nd when you see you’re gaining power, Will still the fattery thicker shower. Until you have their purse and heart, A victim, powerless to depart. Until relieved of every cent. But very soon they do depart— And may be seen with sorrowful face. How oft we meet with such a case ? I hope, my triend you act more fair — Do everything by rule and square. Who’d catch the unwary and unwise By false pretences, I despise. Yon must pursue a different plan— Be faithful both to God and man— If you would negotiate Or treaty make with Saucy Kate. But let me now, kind sir, attend Awhile to my mechanic friend. Yes, unto you of Cedar Creek, A few words now I fain would speak. You say the Empire State’s your home — I rom the Palmetto one you’ve come— (There’ssomethinghigh-souledinthat name) That you from Carolina came— That little state of chivalry— It recommends you more tome, And would sooner win my smile. Than lord of yonder sea-girt isle. This is enough within itself. To prove you are no silly elf, man of worth and sense, Who’d scorn to make a false pretence. You’re a mechanic you confess ; For this I like you none the less. You’ve found no idle time you say, “But labored on from day to day, As through this land your works will show— From house to house where’er we go,” “ ’Till on your visage middle age Has slightly pressed her signet sage,” “And though you’re not a millionaire, You have enough and some to spare.” “Go buy the hungry orphan bread. Or shelter for some houseless head.” You’re what your Maker did intend, If such, and working out that end For which we were designed by Heaven— For which our faculties were given— And though your palm be hard and brown, I never at the useful frown. And proffer to thee friendship’s hand, As one among the worthy band. To the mechanic now a truce. The farmers next I’ll introduce. To you, sir, of the far off West, Os such a mass of wealth possessed, I do not crave your wealth; oh, no; “We want but li.tle here below.” If you’ve nought else to recommend. No further thought on you I’ll spend, Or will, at least, my thoughts divide, With you the one who doth reside, Where Chattahochee’s water’s lave, And fields of snowy cotton wave. So many pretty things you’ve said, You’ve almost turned my silly head; Yes many a hifalutin word In your effusion has appeared; And even this was not enough; You must insert some latin stuff". I doubt not but vou French can speak, And know a half a line of Greek. You say you are a farmer, too, (I hope my friend this may be true) “Would friendship’s feelings cultivate.” This is indeed a lovely trait. “Also, if Heaven the bliss would grant, The flower oflove you would implant, Within some gentle female breast. To bloom lorevcr there a guest.” Oh ! this is nice I do declare— I hope that Heaven may grant your prayer While I look to the orange bowers, The land of sunshine and of flowers, Where the bright magnolia’s seen, And forest of perpetual green, There is a witchery in this spot; And you, my friend, are not forgot. You say “you arc inured to toil— Son of the forest and the soil— A follower of the honored plough—- To Ceres and Triptolemus bow — The Cornucopia’s crowned your board— Your granaries are all well stored.” This does not me the least surprise. The agriculturist is wise. Who tills the earth will soon discern She yields to all a due return ; And then he’s free from the parade, The sad anxieties of trade— m Leaves public discord out of sight, And keeps his conscience pure and bright. We have it both from lips and pen, They are our truest, bravest men. The words of Dodd who can deny, “ That on this class we may rely ?’ ’ They’re honest upright; and, in short, Ourcountry’s safety and support. It is on them we all depend ; They’re to mankind a general friend; They’re Gods own true nobility, And truly more esteemed by me Than are the pampered sons of pride, Or those who labor do deride. I’ll notice, now, the Minister: He, too, must on this page appear. Yes, here a few words I will write To you who spread the gospel’s light To the benighted child of woe, Where bold missouri’s waters flow. You say, “you have no wealth to give— Os this world’s good you litile have ; But the Ferian spring hath sought, And in a noted College taught, And one day in every seven You teach poor souls the way to Heaven.” The one who iauors for mankind— To ennoble the immortal mind — The one to pious purpose given. Who points the erring soul to Heaven ; Who for a brother vile will pray, And humbly plead from day. to day ; Who bows before no other throne, But worships God and him alone, I’d better love, than if he were A merchant-prince, or millionaire. And if there should be grades above, Within that home of peace and love— Yes, should we there distinctions meet— He’ll occupy a higher seat— A far more glorious crown will wear— A brighter palm of victory bear. No doubt his joys will there surpass The joys of any other class; Yes, if there’s one above the rest, The preacher there must be more blest. But here I’d have it understood, I do not think that all are good, Who in the sacred desk do stand, And tell us of a better land, No, Judas’s are all about, And canting hypocrites, no doubt, Who wear the cloak of piety But to conceal their infamy. Os all the men we’ve ever seen, Are they not meanest of the mean ? Shame and confusion must awake, And soon all such must overtake. But from this picture, dark and sad, Let’s turn to one more bright and glad. Yes, your atttention I’ll invite, And here a few kind words indite, To you who dwell by Northern shore, A thousand miles away or more. You say, my friend, “you have no lands, But work with willing, honest hands.” More valued he who does his duty Than those possessed of wealth or beauty ; And to judge from what you’ve said. Your heart is honest, clear your head, A man of worth and one of sense, With soul brim full of eloquence, And burning with poetic fire, That e’en a stoic must admire. Genius ! oh what pleasant sight, When softened by religious light: Your mind seems of a pleasant cast, And yours a literary taste, And here I will confess to you, That mine is literary too; And though you dwell ’neath Northern sky, And I where Souhern sunbeams lie ; And while you tread Long Island’s shore And listen to the ocean’s roar ; Or through the crowded street you roam, I’m wandering in the forest home, Listening to the wild birds’ song, Where mountain streamlets dance along. All is dissimilar, apart; And yet, there’s something in each heart— Yet something in that heart of thine That seems congenial with mine— Sympathies beyond control, Deep within thy secret soul, Like diamonds hidden in the sea, That draws this heart of mine to thee. But turther comment I’ll forbear, And your patience kindly spare. It is enough: I’m pleased with you, And with reluctance say adieu. I plainly write —as plainly speak— But I no controversy seek. And if there’s one unkind allusion To any one in this effusion, I’m very sure I shall repent That I ever should have spent My labor on this silly rhyme, For very precious is my time; And it should not be abused, But in some good purpose used, And since, at last, I think of this, I hardly think ’twould be amiss. And kind reader, do believe I mean e’er long to lake my leave, For Mag—her lesson must recite, And Bobby must be taught to write, And Billy taught his A. B. C. And Tom to work the Rule of Three; Nan’s grammar lesson must be said, And Bessy’s composition read; Then young America must speak, And the new preacher came this week And is to call to tea to-night, And all things must be set aright. Much more than this I hjve to do ; And, indeed must hasten through ; And if no oppose, 1 here this article will close Hose-Bower Ga. Feb. 14fA, 1859. letters from Alabama. NO. 11. Mr. Editor: There is the sweet scent of wild plumb blossoms in the woods —there are wreaths of beautiful red buds in the dells —the orchards are putting on coronals of pink and e merald blue violets are peeping out under the tufts of green leaves, and the river is swollen by long rains. February, the last month in old winter s icy train, has just taken its departure. March has yet to pipe its shrill blasts over the hills, and whistle through the naked branches of the trees, and shriek around half fallen chimnies, and sound his solemn anthems down deserted aisles. Jack Frost’s spring mission in this region is not, I fear, fully accomplished. He will spangle the window panes, and leave silvery tracery upon the hedges, and along the hill sides. Where then will be the fruitage of these beautiful but precocious flowers! They remind me of many a sad thing in this world. Thus have I seen germs of great good ness, nursed intobeing in the hearts ot childhood, by the warm sunshine of a mother’s love, but the relentless hand of death swept her away, and the bitter frosts of life blighted, what in the be ginning was full of promise. Yet in spite of evil augury, it is impossible not to open one’s heart to the sweet spring-like influences, which, for the last few days, have been breathed around us. The blue birds are here, and the river goes on its track, like a thing of light. By the way, Mr. Editor, we are havinga boat made. Won’t it be delightful sailing ? We have just received a visit from one of Spur geon’s devoted followers, Dr. Goode. He was an entire stranger in this community, but man aged to hit off character with surprising accuracy —told by the shape ot the cranium, whether you were despondent or hopeful—avaricious or be nevolent —wise or foolish. I went into his lec ture room, somewhat sceptical in regard to the truth of phrenology, but after he had pronounced upon my social disposition, intellectual character, &c., I was constrained to acknowledge, that there was truth in the science, or else he was a won derful guesser. He managed to unlock the inner man with a skillful hand, and throws bare mo tives, in a manner which is startling to the evil doer. We have also been blessed by a visit from two ambrotype artists, and have sat for our picters. You who can step into a gallery at any time, can hardly imagine what a sensation the arrival of such worthies create, in a retired country village. The belles wish their charms perpeluated, even tho’ it be upon such a brittle substance as glass'; and true affection hastens to secure “the shad ow of its boloved oneYre the substance fades.” But the subject in which I feel, just now, the deepest interest, is the success of Prof. I. J. Mor ris’s Grammar. Have you examined the work, Mr. Editor? If you have not, I beg you to do so. If I mistake not, you will derive pleasure from the perusal, and the work will meet your appro bation. The Professor brought to his task a dis criminating mind and a vast fund of the very kind of knowledge he needed when he undertook the work of revising English Grammar. I hope yet to see his work in universal use. It is just what we need. What I marvel at most is, that it was not produced fifty years ago. But a path always looks very clear and easy to us, after some hardy pioneer has entered, and with a strong arm re moved obstacles. As the Professor has grammar arranged, it is easy of acquisition, and of great practical advantage to the student. But the shadows of twilight are gathering around me. I must throw aside my pen, and curtesy an adieu. KATE. MUSIC. I’V WM. HAUSER, M. D. OF GA. NO. 111. I think you will learn the elementary princi ples of music more easily if I take you to the keys of a piano, than in any other way, unless I could parade before you a series of musical diagrams, which I cannot do. Walk up, then, every one of you, to the piano. You see that row of keys? It is called the keyboard. Some keys, you notice, are white; the others black. At one place you see two black keys in a group, and at another three. That is perfectly plain. Thus the black keys are ar ranged all over the keyboard of a piano, melo deon, organ, &c. You will note that immedi ately below the two black keys—i. e. to the left of them, two white keys lie close together, with no black one between them. (There is a great deal of meaning in this arrangement of the keys —don’t forget my rule.) Well, the first white key below the two black ones is called C. “Al wayscalled so ?” Yes, always; that is its name ; it has no other; learn it here, and you have it for all time, and for all music, vocal or instrumen tal. The next white key, going to the right, is called D, the next E, the* next F, (and E and F lie close together, with no black key between them,) the next G, A, B, and then C again. You see you have called seven letters: C, D, E, F, G, A and B. These seven letters are used every where, to represent the seven elementary sounds of music. You may call them as they occur in the alphabet: A, B, C, D, E, F, G; or call them B, C, D, E, F, G, A; or C, D, E, F, G, A, B ; orD, E, F, G, A, B, C; or E, F, G, A, B. C, D; or F, G, A, B, C, D, E; or G, A, B, C, D, E, F. And, by the way, you percieve that tlsese seven letters can be made to occupy several different positions. Now, strike a white key called C—better strike a C about the middle of the keyboard, or one to the left of it—strike it quickly, and sing the same sound it makes. You may call the sound one, do, fa, ah, or just make the sound without calling it anything. Jo, bo, ho or ro would be as good a name to call it by as any other; but call it C ; then strike the next key and call it D ; so keep on from C to B, striking every key in succession and singing every sound. Now, you have sung and played all the seven elementary sounds in music. The next key above Bis always C, and the distance trom any key to another of the same name above it or below it, is called an octave — that is, an interval ot eight degrees; thus: from C tq C is an octave —from B to B is an octave, and so of all the rest. If you count the keys of a piano, you will find 6 or 7 octaves ; count and see; still, there are no more than seven elemen tary sounds ; but in some octaves these sounds are pitched very high—so high you cannot sing them. In ohers they are too low for you ; in others they suit your voice exactly. The great Author of your being has given you not only a singular musical apparatus, but a cu rious hearing arrangement, which I aim to ex plain by-and-by. But to your singing machine : You are, every moment, consciously or uncon sciously, inhaling and exhaling atmospheric air through your nose and mouth. This air is, or ought to be, drawn down into the very smallest ramifications of the air-tubes that pervade the lungs, where it not only acts as purifier of the blood, (oxygenizing and decarbonizing it,) but it is thence set in motion by the muscular appara tus of the chest, and sent in waves to the top of the windpipe (trachea.) That enlargement at the top of your trachea is called the larynx. In it, spread over its surface, are small fleshy bodies called chorde musicales, (musical chords.) Here, then, is your Heaven made harp—i. e. in your glottis. On this you play all sorts of tunes— “from grave to gay, from gentle to severe.” mod ifying the sounds with teeth and tongue and pal ate and lips and roof of mouth. By this the hu man heart has been soothed of its sorrows, from the days of Jubal to the present hour. Tyrants, as James 11. of England, have felt its power, even to the loss of their guilty thrones. And who that has looked at all into French history, can ever forget the terrible power of the Marseil laise, (the world-renowned Marseilles Hymn,) as it rolled, like a dreadful earthquake, from the throats of fifteen millions of excited men and wo men, prostrating before it the Nobilily, the bloody hierarchy of Rome and the old dynasty of France, which had lived on triumphantly from the days of Clovis to those ot Louis XVI ?

It is hard to realize that cheerful, friendly little Vallie is dead. It seems that she is still at play with her little companions, and that she is charmed by the music of birds and the beauty of the flowers ; but alas ! it is true that she is gone. We miss her, and drop sad tears upon her little grave.

March 25 More to be admired jhan the Richest Diadem ever worn by KAmgs or Em perors ! What ? Why, a Beautiful Head oflnair 1 Because it is the ornament God himself provmded for all our race. Reader, although the rose may blooms ever so brightly in the glowing cheek, the eye he ever s<rtowk ling, the teeth be those of pearls, if the head is berefNfif its covering, or the hair be snarled and shrivelled, and dry; or worse still, if sprinkled with gray, nature will lose more than half her charms. Prof. Wood’s Hair Res torative, if used two or three times a week, will restore and permanently secure to all such an ornament. Read the following and judge. The writer of the first is the ce’ebrk ted pianist, Tlialberg: New York, April 19,18u5. Dear Sir : Permit me to express to you the obligations I am under for the entire restoration of my hair to its origi nal color. About the time of my arrival it wasrapidly be coming gray, but upon the application of your “ Hair Re storative,” it soon recovered its original hue. I consider your Restorative as a very wonderful invention, quite effi cacious as well as agreeable. I am, dear sir, yours truly, S. TIIALBERGrf “j Drych a'r Gwyliedydct.” Welsh Newspaper Office, 13 Nassau st. April 12,1555. Prof. 0. J. Wood— Dear Sir : Some month or six weeks ago I received a bottle of your Hair Restorative and gave it my wife, who concluded to try it on her hair, little think ing at the time that it would restore the gray hair to its original color, but to her as well as my surprise, after a few weeks* trial, it has performed that wonderful effect by turning all the gray hairs to a dark brown, at the same time beautifying and thickening the hair. I strongly re commend the above Restorative to all persons in want of such a change of their hair. Charles Cardew. n t tt. . New York, July 25,1557. Prof. O. J. ood : With confidence do I recommend your Hair Rostoiative, as being the most efficacious article I ever saw. Since using your Hair Restorative my hair and whiskers, which were almost white, have gradually grown dark; and I now feel confident that a few more applica tions will restore them to their natural color. It also has relieved me of all dandruff and unpleasant itching, so com mon among persons who perspire freely. J. G. Kilbv. * Prof Wood : About two years ago my hair commenced falling off and turning gray—l was fast becoming bald, and had tried many remedies to no effect. I commenced using your Restorative in January last. A few applications fas tened my hair firmly. It began to fill up, grow out and turn back to its original color (black). At this time it is fully restored to its original CQlor, health and appearance, and I cheerfully recommend il nn. |i U jj|([ Jot Chicago, 111 May 7,1558 j D Mom The Restorative is put up in bottles of 3 sizes, viz: large, medium and small; the small holds X a pint, and retails for $1 per bottle; the medium holds a- least twenty per cent, more in proportion more than the small, retails for per bottle ; the large holds a quart, 40 percent, more in proportion, and retails for $3.
