they would bear something—a rose-leaf pla ced upon them would make our triumph most complete. Is it sufficient that we give excellent advice to those who ‘‘the primrose paths of dalliance tread;’’ is it sufficient that we steep them to the very lips in apothegan and moral exhortation? No, there yet wants something to crown the labour—the rose-leaf of example. We may hastily pass an object of chanty, and with our best wishes to alle viate the sufferings of the unfortunate, suffer not ourselves to take the trouble of retracing our path to confront the petitioner. Oh, what are charitable feelings, although over flowing the heart, unless they bear upon them something else than theoretical benevo lence!—let us place upon them the odorous rose-leaf of practice. When the bigotry, the persecution, the uncharitableness of mankind is poured down on some devoted head. let us not mingle in the overwhelming torrent; let us not add to its strength, but yield up a sweet and cheering offering, the rose-leaf of compassion. When we feel ourselves sink ing beneath the waters of affliction, let us not give ourselves, with reckless indifference, to the potency of that which oppresses us; but rather let the beauty and the perfume of hope be seen in a rose-leal upon the flood, a leaf in which our spirit may sail securely, although the lightning flashes from above, and the earth trembles from beneath. We might pursue this subject to any length, without fear of being charged with repetition, from a want of apt similitudes. The matter is a most fertile and beautiful one; but v\e proffer it thus briefly, that it may excite useful reflection, rather than by a needless verbodity out-weary it. A simple stone, the record, of a sentence, will some times awaken deeper attention chan a gigan tic edifice and a finely turned homily. The brief exhortation. “Remember thou art a man,” must sometimes have reached wish greater force, the heart of the monarch ol old, than if he had assembled bis priests. Ins magicians and his soothsayers, to hold forth on the state of m rtality, and on ail earth’s vanities. [Correspondence of iht Baltimore Patriot.] IC)' itlagnctie Telegraph.

Dear Sir: lam well aware that persons of <evcry age and sex, and Condition in life, in every country, have used, and been benefited by DR. WISTAR’S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY. My own life has been saved with it. My father s and mother's family were both consumptive. My father, mother and a sister, died with that fatal disease. For some years, I have been predisposed to itmyself. About one yea ago I was quite sick fora number of weeks, con fined to my bed when the pain in my side would allow me to lay. My physician pronounced my disease Liver Complaint; my liver was very much enlarged, I raised blood several times; the pain in my side was so severe that the cars pass ing in the street by the door affected tpe. J was cupped, hied and had various other remedies ap plied but all to no purpose, I got no relief; at last my physician said he could not cure me. f ex pected to die soon, but providentially I heard of, and obtained a bottle of your Balsam, which re- | lieved me at once. I was encouraged to perse ■ v ere in using it until 1 took four or five bottles* which saved my life and cured me. My health ji ? n °vv good.
