KISSING.
There’s a formal kiss for fashion
And a burning kiss of passioir,
A father’s kiss,
A mother’s kiss,
And a -ister’s kiss to nerve ;
There’s a traitor’s kiss for gold,
Like a serpent’s clammy fold ;
A first kiss,
A stolen kiss,
A the thrilling kiss of love ;
A mebting kiss,
A maiden kiss,
A kiss when fond hearts sever.
But . the saddest kiss
On earth is this—
A kiss to part foreVer.
A FEW MAXIMS FOR YOUNG GIRLS.
Never make year appearance in tlio
morning without having first bathed, if on
lv with a sponge and t quart of water, brush - j
ed and arranged your hair, and dressed
yourself neatly and completely.
Keep your clothing, especially your un
dor-clothing, in perfect order. Never let
pins do the duty as buttons, or strings take
the place of proper Lands.
Examine every garment when it comes
from the wash, and. if necessary, mend it
with neatness and precision. Do not sew
up the holes in your stockings, as we have
seen some careless untidy girls do, hut take
a broad margin around tba hole, be it
small or large, with a fine darning-needle
and darning-cotton, and cover the fracture
with an interlaced stitch, so close ns to be
as strong as tlia body of the stocking and
fine enough to bo ornamented.
Stockings mended in this way need darn
ing but a very few times in tire eourse of
their existence.
Never carry coarse embroidered or laced
handkerchiefs. Fine plain ones are much
more ladylike.
Avoid open worked stockings and very
fancy slippers. Fine plain white hose and
black kid slippers, with only a strap of ro
sette in front are more becoming.
Train yourselves to useiul occupation.—
Remember it is wicked to waste time, and
nothing gives such an impression ot vanity
and absolute sillinesss as a habit of idling
and never having anything to do.
Ifyouarein your father’s house, take
some department of the household labor up
on yourself, and a part of the sewing, and
make it your business to attend to it. Do
not let a call from this idle girl, or a visit
from that, or an invitation from the other,
interfere with the performance of your du
ty-
Let your pleasures come in as the recrea
tion, not as the business of your life.
If you want to marry do not court or try
to attract the attention of a gantloninn. A
little wholesome indifference, real or ass
sumed, will bo raueh more likely to aecoms
plish the object. Consider, moreover, that
it is better to be a woman than a wife, and
do not degrade your sex by making your
whole existence turn on the pivot of matris
mony.
If you can cultivate by perfection some
an by which you can gain an independent
livelihood, do it whether there is necessity
for it or not. Do it quietly, if you will,
but do it. There is no telling when or un
der what circumstances you may need it.— i

How to be Miserable. —Sit by the wins',
dow and look over the way to you neigh
bor’s exceilont mansion which he has re
cently built and paid for and fitted out.
“Oh ! that I was a rich man 1”
Got angry with your neighbor, tml ■ l^: 1 -
that you have not a friend in the world!—
Shed a tear or two, and take a walk in the
burial grouud, continually saying--*) your
self, “When shall I buried here?"
Sign a note for a friend and never for„
get your kindness, and every hour in the
day whisper to yourself,“l wonderjif ho will
pay that note ?”
Think everybody means to cheat you.
Closely examine evey bill you take, and
doubt its being genuine till you have put
the owner to a great deal of trouble. Put
confidence in nobody, and believe every man
you trade with to boa rogue.
Never accommodate if you can possibly
help it. Never visit the sick or afflicted,
and never give a farthing to assits the
poor.
Buy as cheap as you can, and screw down
to the lowest mill. Grind the faces and
hearts of the unfortunate.
Brood over your misfortunes, your lack
of talents, and believe that at no distant
day you will come to want. Let the work
house be ever in your mind, with all the
horrors of distress and poverty.
Follow the recipes strictly, and you will
be miserable to your heart’s content—if we
may so speak—sick at heart and at vari-*
ance with the world. Nothing will cheer
or ei.courage you—nothing throw a gleam
of sunshine or a ray if warmth into your
heart?
Cotton and'Cotton Goow. — The mar-.
*et3 of cotton and cotton goods, the World
thinks, have reached a crisis that must be
followed by important results. It says :
The stocks of cotton in this country have
become so reduced that, we are told, with
all that may be expected to come to market
during the next four months, there will not
be enough to keep the spindles of this
country going during that time. A num
ber of interesting questions consequently
arise: Will cotton goods sufficiently ad
vance to justify spinnners in importing
cotton, to what prices vvili it advance ? In
the “crushing on" process to which the
smaller spinners are being subjected, what
effect will it have upon public and private
credit and the money market? llow long
can our great manufacturers go on piling
up goods produced at a loss ?
Borne people argue that, because cotton
goods cost more than they are now bring
ing, they must therefore advance. This
by no means follows. It has appeared for
the past year that, though iavored by
cheaper breadstuff's, more cotton goods have
been maufa-itured than could be sold, even
when prices were reduced below cost.—
High taxes and an inflated currency are
burdens whose weight will be felt, and it
is not safe to prognosticate prosperity uns
der their load.

To Distillers. —W. U. Morrill, Collec
tor, writes as follows on this subject to the
•Journal & Messenger:
In answer to the interrogativos from your
correspondent—first question—whether a
distiller, after having complied with the
law relating to the distilling of fruit, can
dispose of tho spirits distilled in large or
small quantities without violating tho law ?
The law relating to distillers does not im
pose a special tax upon any distiller who
sells from his distillery spirits in tho orig
inal easks or packages,JguageJand branded,
and the tax paid stamps affixed by a Unis
ted States gauger. The law does not als
low any distiller to sell at retail on his
premises, or in any other than in original
casks or packages.
In answer to the second question, viz:—
“Whether a person who has taken out li
sccnse as distiller of fruit, can distill corn
whisky unde? the same license ?’’ The law
relating to distillation of whL-ky is almost
totally different than that of a distiller of
fruit. A distiller of whisky must pay a
special tax of §4OO, keep a bonded ware
house at his owu expense, also have a
United States store-keeper in charge, etc.
It will he seen that a fruit distiller’s li
cense does not authorize a person to distill
whisky under tho same. All liscenso run
from the Ist of May to the fJOth of April of
each year. A person taking a license to
distill fruit from tho Ist of July will have
to pay 10-12 of 850 00, and his licenso ex
pires the 30th day of April.
All spirits drawn from a distillery must
he placed in casks or packages, containing
less than twenty gallons.

L H BRADFIELD’S COLUMN
DR. J. BRADFIELD’S
Female Regulator!
Woman’s Best Friend.
THIS valuable Medicine is prepared for Women ex
clusively, and to be used by Women only It is
adapted especially to those cases where the Womb Is
disordered, and will cure atey irregularity in the “men
ses,” except In such cases as require a surgical opera
tion. As t e-e last are very rare, tho Fkmals Regu
lator ia of almost, universal application. In a sudden*
check of the ‘monthly courses ’ front told, trouble of
mind or like cause, it acts like a charm, by restoring
thk DiaciiAimr. in KVF.KY instance, thus relieving the
fever, headache, mdn in the small of the back and -‘low
er stomach,'’ ilushes of best ahou; the face, chilly sen
sations, burning of the eyelids and general restlessness.
Taken in time, all these symptoms pass away immedi
ately, wihout injury to the constitution. Frequent ly,
however, the proper remedy is not applied in time, the
disease becomes chronic, and the foundation laid for
numberless evils to tho constitution of tho woman.—
The next “turn"’ comes around, nnd there is r.o “show,”
or perhaps tiie “whites'’ will appear. Thera wrll be
some jpneosln&s about the womb, but very little 6f
none of the natural lluid escaping. The complexion
becomes sallow, bowels swollen, a sort of greenish
caste about tho face, constant dull aching pains in tho
head, weight iff the lower stomach nnd Back, with or
without whites, palpitatioYra of tiie heart, pallor, ex
haustion, indigestion, weariness, languor, an aching
across the loins, loss of nppetl'e, pain in left breadt,
tightness across the chest, cough and giddiness. If
still allowed to go on, “green sickness” will be fully
developed—the headache becomes severe, with loss of
memory, diminishing sensibility, sick stomach, dyspep
sia, no relish for food, loss of flesh, increased fluttering
of the heart, swelling of the fkkt, legs and body and
occasional spitting of blood. Tho slightest effort cau
ses iiukrikp breathing, almost suffocation. The skin
is flabby and a “doughy feel.” This is a sad picture,
but it is the condition of thousands of women between
the ages of 15 and 45, who are brought to tho verge of
the grave by ignorance or neglect to take the proper
remedy. To all wha are afflicted with any cftliesymp

Dr J. Bradfif.ld— Dear Sir : I take pleasure in stat
ing that some time previous to the late war, I used,
with the utmost success, on a servant girl, your FE
MALE REGULATOR, prepared then at Bradficld s
Drugstore, West Point, Ga. She had been suffering
severely from suppressed mei struntion, and this medi
cine soon restored her to health. She is, to-day, living
in Atuinta. sound and well.
I will state further, that I know of its being used,
with equal success, on a servant girl of mv brother-in
law, Prof. Rutherford, of Athens, Ga. This woman
had, I think, been diseased for six years. She waf4
house servant, and .K erned cured up to the
“freedom.” Ido not hesitate to endorse your prepara

FOR THE CURB OF

—AND—
CHILLS&FEVBH.
f|TLl£ proprietor of this celebrated Medi
cine, justly claims for-it a superiority
over all ever offered to the public for the
safe, certain and permanent cure of Ague
and Fever, and Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing, fie refers to tho
entire Western and Southnwestcrn oountry
to bear him testimony to the truth of tho
assertion, that in no case whatever will it
fail to cure, if the directions aro strictly
followed and cerried out. In a great many
cases a single dose has been sufficient for a
cure, and whole families have been cured
by a single bottle, with a perfect restora
tion of the general health. It is, however,
prudent, and in every oaße more certain tc
cure, if its use is continued in smaller dor
ses for a week or two after the disease hae
been cheeked, more especially in difficul?
and long standing cases. Usually, this
medicine will uot require any aid to keep
the bowels in good order—should the pa
tient, however, require a cathartic medi-.
cine after having taken three or four doses
of the Tonic, a single dose of Bull’s Vege~
table Family Pills will be sufficient.

To my United States and World-Wide

¥ HAVE received many testimonials
professional and medical men, as my
manacs and vartous publications havol
shown, all of which are genuine. The

Dr. John Bull— Dear Sir: I have recently given
your “Worm Destroyer” several trials, ami find it won
derfully efficacious. It has not failed in a single In
stance to have tho wished for effect. I am doing a
pretty large country practice, and have daily uso for
somo article of the kind. lam free to confess that I
know of no remedy recommended by the ablest au
thors that is so certain and speedy in its effects. On
the contrary, they are uncertain in the extreme. My
object in writing you, is to fled ont on what terms I
catT get the medicine directly from you. If I can get it
upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of it. lam
aware that the use of such articles is contrary to tho
teachings and practice of a great majority of the regu
lar line of M. D.'s, but I see nojust cause or goodsenso
in discarding a remedy which we know to bo efficient,
simply because we may be ignorant of its combination.
For my part, I shall make it a rule to use all and any
menus to alleviate suffering humanity which I may bo
able to command—not hesita'ing because some ono
more ingenious than myself may ha’e learned its ef
fects first, and secured the sole right to secure that
knowledge. However, I am by no means nn advocato
or supporter of the thousands of worthless nostrums
that flood the country, that purport to cure all manner .
of disease to which human flesn is heir. Please reply
soon, and inform mo of your best terms.
I am, sir, most respectfully,
