THOMPSON. “Whither am I going?” My spirit asks of me, A voice in low tones answers “Into Eternity!” “Whither am I going ? ” My hotly asks in pain, “Down in a narrow cavern, To never rise again ?” Again, that small-voice answers: “No, thou shalt awaken in The crash of Time's conclusion, And the final end of sin I” “Though for years thou mayest slumber, Beneath the quiet sod; Thou shalt be called to judgment, By the Trumpeter of God.” DEEDS OF KINDNESS. Suppose the little cowslip Should liang its golden cup, And say, “I’m such a tiny flower I’d better not grow up How many a weary traveller Would miss its fragrant smell! How many a little child would grieve To lose it from the dell 1 Suppose the glistening dew-drops Upon the grass should say, “What can a little dew-drop do? I’d better roll away The blade on which it rested, Before the day was done, Without a drop to moist it Would wither in the sun. Suppose the little breezes, Upon a summer day, Should think themselves too small to cool The trav’ler on his way; Who would not miss the smallest, The softest ones that blow, And think they made a great mistake If they were talking so ? How many deeds of kindness A little child may do, Although it has so little strength, And little wisdom too! It wants a loving spirit Much mote than strength, to prove How many tilings a child may do For others by his love. Companion. Peruvian Cotton. Messrs Editors : —The recent reception of a great number of letters from Southern plan tern, asking of me further information in re lation to the South American Cotton Tree, has induced ine to give a iiotn minute and circumstantial account of the tree, than my recent brief communication afforded. 1, naturally enough, designated the tree as the “Peruvian Cotton,” from the circumstance j of my special attention having been first call I ed to it in that country : though I had before noticed it growing at various elevations, from the low, alluvial, swampy bottom lands of Equador, three feet above the level of the sea, to an altitude of eleven thousand feet: and at various points along the western slope of the Andes, from Valdivia in Chili, ami in very nearly 40 deg., south latitude, to Sar dinas Bay in Granada, something north of the Equator. it is very probable that questions like this inay arise: “If this Cotton Tree is all you represent it, why have not its merits become generally known, and why has it not been introduced into other countries I” And it may be well to rep’y to all such queries in the very out set, by a few questions equally unanswer able. Why has not the Afandioc been introduced into all the Southern Statue, where it tan be cultivated ns successfully and profitably as it can in Brazil! Why is not the Batata Color ado of Peru, Bolivia and Chili, with which the natives dye all their fabrics, those brilliant, everlasting colors in all shades, from the deep est blue to the most delicate pink, in general cultivation in the United States, where it will grow as well us our common turuip, averaging two hundred bushels to the acre, and every bushel giving two pounds of pure material, more valuable as a dye than the best indigo in the world ? Why is not the Parovre, Jacaraudah, Ca breova, Epai, and several other most beautiful and valuable woods, with which the South American forests abound, unknown even in name to naturalists, and never imported into our country ? And lastly, why was not guano introduced as a fertilizer fifty years before it was! So it ia in regard to the Cotton Tree. If any one were to ask me why its merits had not ere this become generally known, I can only answer, 1 don’t know—it strikes me they ought to have been. In regard to its cultivation 1 can say very little, as 1 think very little has ever been done in the wav ot cultivating it. At Turijah, in Boli via, I saw a field of perhaps fifteen acres, containing cotton trees, set iu regular rows, about twelve feel apart, presenting, when in full .bloom, the most beautiful appearance im aginable. A portion of the material produced by this cotton orchard was manufactured on the spot into cloths, by the peons who plucked it from the pods, spun it on a simple peg or bobbin, twirled dexterously betwen the thumb and finger, secured the web to two pegs driven in the ground, passed the ‘•filling" through by hand, beat it up with a flat stick, and wove at the rate of half a yard per day, a water proof eottou cloth ten inches wide, requiring three Imnds to Hixomplish it. Now any of the three could any day dig his fifteen pounds of copper, five ounces of silver, or strip Ills aroba of ehincoa bark; tu.d with the proceeds purchase two fiuu'y-coloured, nicely done up French shirts, with buttons alt newed an. And yet I have been asked win the people of those countries do not cultivate and manufacture the native cotton. f Near Caxnmaroa, In Peru, I remained a month with an old French saran, who cultiva ted the cotton tree, and made it serviceable in more wavs than oue. He hud a space of a bout three acres enclosed with a cotton hedge, and a more compact, efficient and beautiful fence no man ever saw. He had also a nur sery of seedling trees, of two years’ growth, and from tour to five feet high, smooth, strai“ht. \ ’-gi-t. . .i< ex <rw<■• ,- v. urg p pie or |*ear trees. These he was preparing to transplant that season. A little of the fibre Covered his vegetable grounds to the depth of twe inches, effectually protecting the ami* front the scorching sun, holding for a great portion of the day, like a sponge. the heavy dew that fell at night, and everywhere the vegetables l grew up from their cotton beds most lujuri \ antly. From the fl-'wers he made a ferment ed liquor, which, whim sweetened witn honey, was, if not quite up to the nectar standard of the gods, superior, in my opinion, to the ahcr bet of the Persians.. From Monsieur Ifeparnuan I learned that he planted the seeds both iu the spring and fell, iudiseriuuuately. so that the feet of our aeaatMM being exactly the reverse of those of South America, would make no difference in the economy of planting. The tree, its its fidtagv and structure of bark, more nearly rcsemidtw the whits mul berry than any other tree with which 1 am acquainted, though it grows much more a»ni pact and mifiKin than that tree. Its flower*, which are profuse, arc in from nearly identi cal i.th the double hollyhock, but cue-third smaller. The predominating color is a bright, { glossy yellow, though they are greatly varied running tnrough all shades and tints, from the deepest blue to pure white. There is one peculiarity about the tree that proves conclusively its capacity to adapt itself to all vicissitudes of climate and soil. Along the Pacific coast, in Bolivia and northern Chili, it flourishes all through the Desert of Allacama, amid the scorching cinders and vol canic debris, without a drop of moisture for years together. Along the river Guayaquil and its delta of swamps, it flourishes most luxuriantly in an eternal quagmire. In the vallies of the Ilaullaya, Arica, Beni, Branco, ' and other rivers, it grows in the richest, deep- ■ est possible alluvial soil. All through the copper districts of Bolivia, it is quite at home I in the hard red loam—as red with peroxide i of iron as a well burned brick. On the cast- : ern slope of the Bolivian Andes, between Chuquisaca and St Sorato, it grows in profu- ■ sion, clinging to the bare, rugged ledges of j blue limestone. Wherever it approaches the regions of snow and severe cold, it becomes deciduous, while in the tropical and more temperate localities it is invariably an ever green. While studying the tree, its properties and habits, it occurred to me that some person, at ■ some time, might object to it as a cotton bear- j er <»n account of the difficulty in the way of picking: so I manufactured for myselfalight, long handled, wire-tooth rake, and made an experiment. Selecting one of the largest trees I had seen, the pods just bursting, and in fine condition, 1 fell to work. The stems snapped off like glass, and I raked down into panchos spread on the ground, a greater a niOUnt of cotton pods than hny five expert hands could have picked in the same time.— So said my friend, Col. Taylor, who was look ing on ; and being himself an old cotton vet eran, he ought to have known. jKgF“It is more blessed to give thaij to re ceive.

The Amalgamation of Languages. There is a growing tendency in this age to ap propriate the most expressive words of other lan guages, and after a while to incorporate them into our own; thus the word Cephalic, which is from the Greek, signifying “for the head,” is now be- | coming popularized in connection with Mr. Spald ing’s great Headache remedy, but it will soon be I used in a more general way, and the word Cephal : il will become as common ns Electrotype and many others, whose distinctions as foreign words has been worn away by common usage, until they seem native and to tlie manor born.” ’ardly Kealixed. Hi ’ad ’u ’orrible ’eadaehe this afternoon, hand I stepped into the hapothecarie.s, hand says hi to the man, “Can you hease me of au ’eadaehe ?” “Does it j hache ’ard,” says ’e. “Ifexceedingly,” says hi, baud ■ upon that 'e gave me a Cephalic Pill, hand ’pon me • ’onor it cured me so quick that 1 ’tirdly realized 1 'ad : au ’eadaehe. — Headache Is tlie favorite sign by which nature makes known any deviation whatever from the natural state of the brain, and. viewed in this light it may be looked on as a safe intended to givenotice of disease which might other wise escape attention, till too late to be remedied; and ■ its indications should never be neglected. Headache ; may be classified under two names, viz., Symptomatic , i ana Idopathic. Symptomatic headache is exceedingly ■ ; common, and is the precursor of a great variety of ! diseases, among which are Apoplexy, Rheumatism, i Gout, and all febrile diseases. Iu its nervous form it is i sympathetic of disease of the stomach, constituting sick headache; of licptic disease, constituting bilious headache; of worms, constipations, and other disor ders of the bowels, as well as renal aud uterine affec tions. Diseases of the heart are very frequently at tended with headache. Anaemia aud plethora are also affections which frequently oceasiou headache. Idio pathic Headache is also very common, being usually distinguished by tlie name of nervous heartache, some ' times coming ou suddenly iu a statu of apparently j sound health, and prostrating at once the menial aud i physical energies, and in other instances it comes on I heralded by depression of spirits or acerbity of teiu | per. In most instances the pain is in the front of tlie i head, over one or both eyes, and sometimes provoking ! vomiting; under this class may aiso be named Neu ; ralgia. for the treatment of either class of Headache, the j Cephalic Pills have been found a sure aud sale reme ; dy, relieving the most acute pains in a few minutes, ’ i nil by its subtle power eradicating the disease of which Headache is the unerring index. Bhidoet. —Missus wants you to send her a box of > Cephalic Glue. No, a bottle of Prepared Pills—but I’m thinking that’s not just it naither; but perhaps i ye’ll be afther knowing what it is. You see she’s nigh dead and gone with the Sick Headache, and wants some more of that same as relaved her before. Druggist. —You must mean Spalding’s Cephalic Pills. Bkidget. —Och! sure now mid you’ve sed it, —here’s the quarther and give me the Pilis, and don’t be all day about it aitlicr. , r— or Costlyeness. No one of Ute “many ill flesh is heir to” is so prev alent, so little understood and so much neglected as Cosliveness. Often originating iu carelessness or se dentary habits, it is regarded as g slight disorder, of too little consequence to excite anxiety, while in reali ty it is the precursor and companion of many of the most fatal and dangerous diseases, mid unless early eradicated it will bring tlie sufferer to au uiitimcly grave. Among the lighter evils of which costivencs’s is the usual attendant, arc Headache, Colic, Rheumat ism, Foul Breath, Piles, and other* of a like nature, while a long train of frightful diseases, such ns Malig nant Fevers, Abaeesses, Disentery, Diurrheß, Dyspep sia, Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hysteria, Hypo ' choudriasfs, .Melancholy and Insanity first indicate ; their presence tn the system by thisularmlngsymptom ! Not unfrequentiy the diseases named originate in Con i siipntioii, but take ou an iudopendeut existence unless tlie cause is eradicated in an early stage. From all i these considerations it follows that thetiisordershould : receive immediate attention whenever it occurs, aud no person should neglect to get a box of Cepltalie Pills i on the tirst appearance of the complaint, as the’u time . ly use, will expei the iusiduous approaches of disease and destroy this dmigemus toe to htinimi life.

Spalding’s Cephalic Pills are a good remedy for Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Nervous Headache, Cos tlvenesß aud General Debility. * ->>- ♦ Txvenlj Itftlllons of Dollars Waved. Mr. Spalding has sold two millions of bottles of his ; celebrated Prepared Glue, and it is estimated that each bottle saves at least ten dollars worth of broken furni ture, thus making an aggregate of twenty millions of : dollar* rccluiiucd from total loss by this valuable in vention. Having made his Glue a household word, be now proposes to <lo the world still greater service by curing all the aching heads with the CephMie Pills, and if they are as g-iod :us his Gitte, Headaches will soon vanish away like snow iu July. ♦_ ' i I-e? Oven excitement, and the mental eare and anxiety incident to close attention to business or study, are among tlie numerous causes of Nervous Headache. The disordered state of mind and body in cident to this distres: ing complaint is a fatal blow to , all energy aud tunbition. (Sufferers by this disorder can always obtain speedy relief from these distressing at tacks by using one of the Cephalic Pills whenever the sympton.- appear. It quiets the overtasked brain, and soothes the strained and jarring nerves, and relaxes the tension of the stomach, which always accompanies and aggravates the disordered state of the brain. Great Discovery. Among the most important of all the great medical discoveries of thi» age may be eonsid< red the system of vaccination for protecti'on from Small Pox, tlie Ce phalic Pill tor relict of Hcadnche, aud the use of Qui nine for the prevention < f Fevers, either of w hich is a sure specific, whose benefits will be experienced by suffering humanity long after their discoverers are for gotten. - - t<' ; Did you ever have the Sick Headaclw?

Tiik first volume of this work was issued in the 1 year, 1847, and was well received by the Baptists i generally. It consisted of a re-print of Sermons j on special subjects by living Baptist ministers of I Georgia, and contained a likeness of the late Dr. i W. T. Brandy. It is intended to make the Second i Volume equal to the First; and, if possible, to ini j prove its value by obtaining the best specimens of ' Sermons and Essays from the ablest ministers of j our country. The Editor pledges himself that he I will not introduce into the volume any sermon j which, in his estimation, would be disreputable to | the author, or to the Baptist cause in any sense.— ! He pledges himself especially not to crowd the vol -1 time with the productions of his own pen. Others i can now be procured which ean, and will make a \ large, sound and inestimable embodiment of theol i ogy, worthy of a place in any religious library. He I will labor to make the book what it should be. The Volume will contain over Twenty Sermons, , and be embelished with a beautiful likeness of one I of Georgia’s most talented sous. It will be print i ed on good paper, large octavo page, and bound in ■ black muslin in uniformity with the first volume, j at the low price of One Dollar and Fifty Cents per copy: sent to subscribers by mail, post paid, when : the money accompanies the order.
