She’* beautiful! ILr raven curls
Have broken hearts in envious girl*;
And they sleep in contrast so.
Like raven feathers upon snow,
And bathe her neck,and shade the bright
Hark eye from which they catch the light,
Ae if llieir graceful looks were mode,
To keep that glorious eye in shade.
And holier makes Rs tranquil spell.
Like waters ui a shaded well.
I cannot rhyme about that eye
I’ve matched it with a midnight sky
I’ve said 'twa* deep, and dark, and wild,
Expressive, Jtquid, witching, mild,
fbit the jewel I’d star and the living air.
Have nothing in it half so fair.
She's noble, nohle —one to keep
Embalm'd for dreams of fever'd sleep
An eye for nature, taste refin’d.
Perception sweet, and balanc'd mind,
And more than all a gift of thought
To such a spirit—fineness wrought,
That on my ear her language fell
As if each word dissolved a spell.
Veil half hate Iter; she has all
Thai would ensure an angel's fall,
And there’s a cool collected look,
As if her pulses beat by book,
A measured tone, a cold reply,
A management of voice and eye,
A calm, possess’d authentic a:r.
That leaves a doubt of softness there,
’Till—look and worship as 1 may—
My fever’d thoughts will pass away.
And when she lifts her fringing lashes
And her dark eye like star-light flashes;
And when site plays her quiet wile
Os that calm look and measur’d smile,
1 go away, like one who’s heard,
lit some fine scene the prompter's word,
And make a vow to break a chain
And keep it—till we meet again.

HOW TO MAKE A YOUNG WIFE OF AN
OLD M A 11).
The following story might, perhaps,
furnish matter tor a little comedy, if com
odies were still written in England.
It is generally the case that the more
beautiful and the richer a young female
is, the more difficult are both her parents
and herself in tho choice of her husband,
and the more offers they refuse. The one
is 100 tall, the other 100 short, this is not
wealthy, the other is not respectable
enough. Meanwhile one spring passes
a not he r, andyeara fte r ye a r, ca r r ies aw a y
leaf after leaf, of the bloom of youth and
opportunity. Miss Harriet Selwood was
the richest heiress in her native town, but
she had already completed her twentv
neventh year, and beheld her friends uni
ted to men whom she had at one time or
other discarded. Harriet began to ho sot
down for an old maid. Her parents be
came uneasy, and she herself, lamented in
private, a position which is not a natural
one, and-which those to whom nature and
fortune have been nigard oftheir gifts, are
obliged to submit, but (farriet, as we have
said, was both handsome and rich.
Such was the state of things, when her
uncle, a wealthy merchant in the north of
England, came on a visit to her parents.
He was a jovial, lively, straightforward
man, accustomed to attack all difficulties
closely and boldly. “You see” said her
father to him one da}’, “1 larriel continues
single. The git lis handsome: and then
she is to have a fortune; even in this i
scandal loving town, not a creature can
breathe the slightest imputation against
her—and yet she is getting to be an old i
maid.”
“True,” replied her uncle; “hut look ,
you, brother, the grand point in every af
fair in this world is to seize the proper mo- j
ment; that you have not done it is a mis
fortune; but let the girl go along whh me,
before the end of two months I will ,
certainly return Iter to you as the wife of
a citizen as young and wealthy as her
self.”
Away went the niece with the uncle.
On the way home, he thus addressed her:
“Mind what lam going to say. You are
no longer Miss Selwood, but Mrs. hum
ley, my niece, a young, wealthy, child
less, widow* you had the misfortune to
lose your husband, Col. Lumley, after a
happy union ofa year and a quarter, by
a fall from his horse while hunting.”
“But uncle—”
“Let me manage if you please, Mrs.
Lumley. Your father has invested mo
with full powers. Here look you is the
wedding ring given you by your late hus
band. Jewels and whatever else you
need, your aunt will supply ycu wiih,
and accustom yourself to cast your eyes
down.”
The keen wilted uncle introduced his
niece everywhere, and everywhere the
young widow created a great sensation.
The gentlemen thronged about her and
she soon had her choice out of twenty
suitors. Her uncle advised her to accept
the one who was deepest in love with her,
and a rare chance decreed that litis should
be precisely the most amiable and opu
lent. The match was concluded,and one
day the uncle desired to sav a few’ words !
to his future nephew in private.
“Mr dear sir,” he began, “we have told i
you an untruth.”
“How so? are Mrs. Lumley—?”
“Nothing of the kind; niv niece is sin
cerely attached to you.”
Then her fortune, I suppose, is not so
great as yaw told me.”
‘mDo the contrary, it is farmer.”
“Well, what is the matter then?”
“A joke, an innocent joke, v» hich came
into my head one day when I was in a
££>od humor; w*e could not recall it after
wards. My niece is not a widow.”
“What! is Col. Lumley living?”
“No, no, she is a spinster.”
The lover protested that he was a hap- |
pier man than he ever conceived himself,
and th* old maid forthwith metamorpho I
aqd into a w ife.
agricultural.
Pickling Cucumbers* —To each hui
died of cucumbers pat a pint of salt, ai i
pour in boiling water sufficient to cover
them ; to prevent the steam from es
caping, also cover the vessel in which
they are, and in this condition let them
stand for twenty-four hours. They are
then to be taken out, and, after being
wiped perfectly dry, (care being taken
that the skin G not broken,) placed in the
jar in which they are to he kept. Boil
ing vinegar is then to be put to them, tbe
jar closed tight, and in a fortnight deli
cious hard pickles are produced, as green
as the day they wee upon the vines. —
I he best vinegar to be used.
Lime ni Planting Trees. —An English
paper says that a large plantation of trees,
within the hist few years, has been form
ed without the loss of a single tree, and
this has been achieved hv a simple pro
cess; it is merely putting a small quanti
ty of lime in the hole with the plant.
Pemxs for Winter. —Gather in July
an i August, us fast as they mature ar.d
dry, all your small Lima beans, (called
Carolina or butter beans;) dry them
thoroughly after.shelling, and put away
in a bag, bung up. They are very near
ly as good in winter as the fresh bean is
in July, and besides are a change when
there ate few vegetables.
Wash for Fruit 'Trees. —Ley that will
hear an egg will kill all the vermin and
the moss that gathers on voting trees. —
Apply il in May or June, when the ver
min are to he seen. It will do more
service than in cold weather.
One pound of potash, dissolved in one
gallon of water, will form a ley that will
be strong enough for the vermin, and not
injurious to the hark.
j '
A pood Compost for Sandy Land. —
Take 10 loads of stable or barn-yard
manure, 5 loads of clay, 10 bushels of
ashes, and 20 hu.shels of lime, mix the
whole well together, —let it remain in a
pile a few days, turn it over, when it will
he fit to apply to the land.
; The above quantity will make a better
dressing for an acre of land, than twenty
i or even twenty-five loads of stable or
barn-yard manure alone, and will last
longer. Let any one who may doubt it,
try it, and they will be convinced of the
truth of what we say.
It is said that ten or more successive
crops of oats may he taken from the same
ground, if the stubble is ploughed in the
Fall, without manure; and that the crop
will increase from following such a
course.

and disease oj the Sjnne, by which she was en- j
i tirely disabled, and tost the use of tlie lower ex- 1

care of Dr. 1-indel, who attended her lor some lime, !
but without benefit. We then applied to Dr. |
Parker, a Root Doctor, who, alter lie had treated
her case some time, concluded that he could do
1 nothing for her. We then applied lo Dr. T homas,
ol'Culudenville, who attended on her eight months,
without the least benefit ; for she was left in a !
most deplorable -condition —perfectly helpless— j
wherever she was laid, there she remained with- |
out the power of motion, by the greatest effort of ;
the will. She was so much reduced, that she :
I looked as if there were not live pounds of flesh on -
her whole body—so that she coind ue compared to ;
nothing but a living skeleton, if such could bo itn- j

excellent bodily health, and tlie use of her limbs ; j
by which she is enabled to enjoy life, and visit i

use, from my personal observation and use of the
article in my own practice. This article is favora

lowed to refer to Mr. George Heard of Troup, Air.
John Warren of Columbus,Mr. McKaffce of Cobb,
Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William D. Ter

to which a great number of names might he added,
who bear their testimony to its value. Dr. Henry
Branham lias used this medicine in his own case,
and has prescribed it to many others, gives it as his
opinion, that it is one of the safest and most valua
ble medicines that can be used in imperfect diges
tion, liver complaints, constipation and irregular
state of the 1 towels. It is useful in bilious com
plaints, to persons recovering from bilious fevers,
and in sick or nervous head-ache. To pregnant
! women, who are subject to costiveness, this xaedi-
I ciae is well suited. In regulating the state of tlie
stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion, it is
j particularly useful.

cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle

COLLETON BITTERS.
FOR DYSPEPTICS.
ramFSE B l I’T ER S are purely a vegetable
Ji. compound, and are offered to the pub
lic from a principle of benevolence, under the full
est conviction that they will be found a safe and
sovereign reined) for Dyspepsia. T hey have been
trininphanrly lusted not only by some ot the most
respectable lamilies in the Stale, who have furnish
ed ample testimony as to their decided excellence,
but also by the proprietor, who, for ten years, sul
fered all I lie gloom incident to that distressing dis
ease. They possess the peculiar excellence denied
to most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by
continued rose. They contain nol'a single delete
rious ingredient; and. as seen from tlie directions
which accompany each bottle, may be given w ith I
entire safety to an infant in the month
If the Colleton is taken regularly and persever
ing ly, C which is highly important in siubboru cases.)
they will, soon alter the .use of a few botiles, be
found to act on the system like a charm—imparling
vigor to the stomach, bracing the nerves, cleans
ing the livei*, promoting digestion, increasing the
appetite,strengthening the chest and voice, reliev
ing pains, cramps, am! stitches in the breast. T hey i
are also mostexcellent for cholera morbus, habitual
j constipation,sea-sickness, nausea, proceeding from
( w hatever cause. In cases of general debility, it .
has proved one of the best rem -dies, and is there
fore highly recommended lo elderly people, literary
gentlemen.students, and others of sedentary habits,
t aken in small doses frequently through the day, i
they have checked the most violent diarrhoea, and j
likewise been administered with the happiest effect
| in cholera infantum.
In ail the foregoing complaints, these Bitters will 1
I be found effectual if persisted in, and taken accord - •
, iug to the directions w liich accompany each bottle.
And although it has been testified by several that
they are excellent in many others, yet in none other
than those above enumerated, is the proprietor w ill
. iug to vouch for iheir efficacy. They were prima
rily and solely intended to cure Dyspepsia.
The Colleton Bitters'have been eight years be- i
fore the public; and in consequence of the increas- t
( ing demand for this valuable medicine, the proprie- ;
! tor has entered largely into the business—bottles
; are procured having “Colleton Bitters” moulded in
j them—they are also numbered, sealed and stamp- I
ed with an appropriate motto. I’rice § I per bottle. ;

in the character ami integrity of the maker and pro

; terrain the most favorable opinion. Several of my

found t hese Bitters better than any other medicine j
they ever tried, for that distressing disease. And 1 j
take the pbasure further to slate that 1 have wit- j

sick-headache, and bowel complaint; in this /«.■>/ j
: particular, 1 iiave seen the Colleton repeatedly and !

MOI EJil i(X (ilAKifliiA KKVEW'V
fIi’UIE present is the fifth vear ■otiie publication
fjj of this Rev o'“-, navingexisted for a longer
period than any similar work ever published at iho
South, and longer than any of our monthly peri
odicals, except the Southern Literary Messenger.
It has a circulation of two thousand subscribers,
widely scalteicd over every section of the Soutn
| atul South-\V esl. and. to some extent,in the North
ern Stales. Established at a period of great com
mercial embarrassment, and continued down to
the present time, through an interval of general
depression in the monetary affairs ol the country,
it has been only a strong conviction of the impor
tance and necessity of such a work at tlie South,
pervading all, ami especially the higher classes
| of society, which has enabled us to sustain it with
a good degree of v igor. The extensive encouragc
i iiienl afibrded to the foreign periodicals, repub
lished at.i cheap rale in tins country, and lo the
i lighter and cheaper literature of the day, has ope
rated also some w hat against the success ol a work,
gotten up in a superior style of typographical exc
i ention, and published at a more expensive rate. —
Still, the Review is in a healthy condition, its
I patronage is steadily increasing, and it might be
in a flourishing stale at ibis moment, if the debts
j due lo the establishment, amounting to at least ten
thousand dollars, could be collected even with a
moderate degree of promptitude. In the leading
i cities of the South, collections are made by agents
readily enough, Im»1 to small towns and vi'lages
1 situated at a distance from the place of publica
tion, it is impracticable to send agents, except at a
greater cost than the actual value of the subscrip
tions. The consequence is, that they are often un
collected ; —she subs, libers, occupied wiib more
weighty matters, neglect to remit, and the sub
! scriptious accumulate f rom year lo year. ’1 bis m
one of the principal reasons, why, owing to a want
of those means for carrying on the work with spirit,
which are withheld through mere inattention, hut
I which, if promptly received, would be ample for
the purpose, the publication of the work is some
times delayed, (as it is in the present quarter; be
yond the time w lien it ought to appear. VV e have
never, from motives of delicacy, alluded to such
matters before. We have never, through the pages
of this work, asked our subscribers to transmit
their subscriptions. We now respect fully solicit
all those patrons of the Review who reside at a
distance,in the interior of the States, and not those
! on the ordinary route between this city and New -
Orleans, (from whom we intend to collect in per
son) to transmit their subscriptions, at their earliest
I convenience, through postmasters, in accordance
with provisions of the law, and at our risk. An
, acknowledgment of the receipt of the toone.y will
•be made in an appendix to ttie Review, in w hi-.'
will hereafter appear an entry ofall payments madr
| during the year. We hope this course will 1
agreeable to our patrons, and vve most raspectfu’
and urgently solicit their attention to a matter
essential.to tlie prosperity ofthe work.
We would now say to tlie literary public in gen
era), and to that of the South in particular, mat
the experiment of this Review proves that the
South is both able and well disposed to .sustain
such an enterprize. All that is necessary lo its
permanence and prosperity, is prompt payments
and increased efforts, by its friends and supporters,
to extend its c irculation. Two thousand subteri- -
hers is an excellent beginning, but if liberal re
wards are to he paid to writers for literary labor, a
mud, larger circulation is indispensable. We
a-k public spirited gentlemen at the South every
where to aid us, by such personal efforts as they
car. bestow', in obtaining a still wider, more en
couraging, anil permanent patronage.
