Messes Editors:—The poetry of R. H. Wilde, begin
■ ‘,v;\fy life is like tho summer rose,” is nnivereally ad*
•v I and frequently found in the periodicals ot the day.
; nolitics are forgotten ; his life of Tasso encumbers the
■'Loi booksellers, whilst this gem, recognized as true
‘-v , veil in fault-finding England, promises to embalm
.1 name in literary immortality, lie will probably be
|,y it in future ages, as Wolfe is by his buanl of bir
bn M..ore, and Gray bjKhis Elegy.
. not> however, so well known that a lady of Balti
r * met the distinguished advocate in the Court oi the
T’^’ s and replied with much force and almost equal
1 ’ .7,’ Ag the stanzas of each are not lound in connec
■ i it is proposed to give those of Wilde separately, and
a ‘itnilar way the lady’s answers in reply :
WILDE.
My life i like the summer rose
That opens to the momfng sky,
But ere the shades of evening close,
Is scattered on the ground to die.
Yet on that rose’s humble bed,
The sweetest dews of night are shed,
As if she wept such waste to see ;
But none shall weep a tear lor me.
LADY.
The dews of night may fall from heaven
Upon the wither’d rose’s bed,
And tears of fond regret be given
To mourn the virtues oithe dead.
Yet morning’s sun the dews will dry,
And tears will fade trom sorrow’s eye,
Affection's pangs be lull and to sleep,
And even love forget to weep.
WILDE.
My life is like the autumn leaf
That trembles in the moon’s pale ray—
Its hold is irad, its date is brief,
Restless, and soon to pass away.
Yet ere that leaf shall fall and fade.
The parent tree shall mourn its shade ;
The W mds bewail the leafless tree,
But none shall breathe a sigh for me.
lady.
The tree may mourn its fallen leal,
And autumn winds bewail its bloom.
And friends may heave the sigh of giief
O’er those who sleep within the tomb.
Yet soon will spring renew the flowers.
And time will bring more smiling hours;
In friendship’s heart all grief will die,
And even love lorget to sigh.
WILDE.
My life is like the prints which feet
Have left on Tempo's desert strand—
Soon as the rising tide shall beat,
All trace will vanish from the sand.
Yet, as if grieving to efface
All vestige of the human race
On that lone shore, loud moans the sea,
But none, alas! shall mourn tor me.
LADY.
The sea may on the desert shore
Lament each trace it bears away ; ♦
The lonely heart its grief may pour
O’er cherish’d friendship’s fast decay.
Yet when all track is lost and goue,
The waves dance bright and gaily on ;
Thus soon affection's bonds are torn,
And even love forgets to mourn.
Arre3t of Graham, \ the Murderer.
Lynchburg, April 5,1855.
James Austin Graham, the man who murdeied
IjMr. V W. 11. Spiller, and fshot Messrs. G. F. Trigg, J.
jjlCox and Teny at Wytheville, on Saturday night last, was
H|arrcstt'd thin morning, about twelve miles from that place.
W ile was seen near there Monday morning, and a party of
■citizens started to hunthirn, and finally captured him. The
■ feeling against him in Wytheville is intense, and 1 should
K not he surprised if the people took the law into their own
U hands, though it is to be hoped that no such rash act will
*t he committed. He was lodged in jail at Wytheville.

Holloway's Ointment, and Pills the best Remedies for
B(i(i Begs, and all kinds of wounds. —Tho surprising sale
ot these invaluable medicines in every part of the civilized
world is one of the most convincing proofs of their efficacy
in curing bad legs, old wounds, scrofula, and diseases of the
skin. Thousands of people who suffered from these dread
ful maladies have been cured by their use after every other
! remedy failed ; and it is a fact beyond dispute that there is
i no disease, however obstinate, but that may he shortly erad
! icated by these wonderful medicines, therefore the afflicted
j should try Holloway’s Ointment and Pills.
1 The relaxing heats of summer leave behind them
i a long train of evi s. The most universal of these are
general debility and its sure attendant, lowness of spirits.
For these we can recommend a speedy and unfailing cure,
i:: the shape of Hooffand’s German Bitters, prepared by
Dr. G. M. Jackson, Philadelphia. It is, in our opinion, a
medicine sui generis —alone—unapproachable. It seems
to roach the fountain head of the difficulty in the digestive
organization, and thus to relieve the secretions and the
! blood of the macerics morbi, or the cause of disease, its
; tome properties give vigor to the membranes ot the stom
j ach,and promote the secretion of the gastric juice, which
j dissolves the food, while its cordial, soothing, and altera
j ff v ® influence imparts general regularity and strength to the
j action of the secretive organs, and seems to fortify the con
’ stitution. Snch is our own experience of its effects, and
we believe it is confirmed by the evidence of all who have
tried it, or had an opportunity of witnessing its operation.

Derangement of the Liver, L one of the most common,
as well as tho most formidable of diseases known to Amer
ican physicians. It had for years attracted the closest at
tention of the medical faculty in all parts of the United
States, and yet up to the time of the discovery of Dr. M’-
Lane’s great Specific, it was almost beyond the leach of
Medical skill. Thousands had fperisned without even a
hope of relief, and although thousands may yet be destined
to feel the direful effects of this most complicated disease,
it is now, thanks to the research of Dr. M’Lane, complete
ly brought within the seope of medical control. The pro
prietors of the Liver Pills feel confident that they offer a
remedy which has been fully tested by time, and which has
never failed of success when fairly tried. These inestima
