IS iit 3 , iT———~?nzrrzrzr~ ui:r.’ - - . __. Time to me this Tieth has Taught. Time to me this truth has taught, (’Tis a tratli that’s worth revealing,) More offend from want of thought, Than any want of feeling— If advice we would convey, • There’s a time we should convey It, If we've but a word to say, There’s a time in which t-o say it. Oft unknowingly the tongue Touches on a chord so aching, That a word of accent wrong, Pains the heart almost to breaking— Many a tear of wounded pride, Many a tear of human blindness, Has been soo*hcd or turned aside, By a quiet voice of kindness. Many a beauteous Sower decays, Though we tend it e’er so much— Something secret in it preys, Which no human aid can touch. So in many a lovely breast, Lies some canker grief concealed, That if touched is more opprest— Left unto itself is healed. Choice of a Wife. I ask not beauty—’tis a gleam, That tints the morning sky, I ask not learning—'tis a dream That glides unheeded by. I nek not wit—’tis a flash That oft blinds reason’s eye : I ask not gold—'tis glittering trash, That causes many a sigh! I ask good sense, a taste refined, Candor with pleasure blended, A feeling heart, a virtuous mind, With charity attended. A most singular phenomenon, says the Sandusky, 0., Register, is now to be seen around the docks in the a ter. Immence numbers of wuite fish ast Fall were cleaned on the docks, and the ffal and ‘thrown into the Bay. The spawn ii.s ‘hatched,” and now around the dock m y be seen mi.lions <>f ’ miniature white fish II- nr is a fact in the breeding of fish which the knowing ones ought to investigate, f< r, if fish can be clean, and, and from the spawn hatching can be induced,wlmt is the use of all rise rtific al arangements now proposed to propagate fish? Appearances.—Upon the subject of dress and appearances, the Mew York i iin< s thus remarks: A coat that has the marks < f use upon it is a recommendation to peopl of sense, and a hat with too smooth a nap and too Inc h a lus ter is a deroga ory c rcurnsiancc. The-best coats in Brodvvay are on the backs* f penniless fops, broken down merchant s clerks w.th ph tiful salaries, and men that don’t, pay up. ihe heaviest gold eh ins dangle from the so sos gamblers and gentlemen ofvery limited means; costly ornaments on the ladies indicate :o the eyes that are well open, the lac of a sihy !ov< r or husband cramped tor f-.nris. And when a pretty woman goes by ,n a s it of plain and neat apparel, it is a sing- that she as i’dr ex pectations and a hnsb ml that <an si ow a ballance iu his favor. F>r women are like books, too much gilding makes men suspicions that the binding is the most important point ” Progress.—There is at present in oppera tion near Boston, a jumping locomotive which only touches the ground once in a mile It is perfectly round, the machinery in the centre, ana is coated externally with India rubber So soon as the patent has been secured, its proprietor supp >ses that thousands of them will be seen “bobin’ around” the world, so that to the Man in the Moon, the Earth will look like a big cheese covered with ‘skippers.’ Who denies that this is really a “fast age?” SADDLE & HARNESS WAKE ROD M. * v> ". respectfully inform friends and the pub ’ be generally,that he lias KyhV recently made extensive bis general resiL.Cue following comprise only a part, viz : Eng* American and BridleSjHarness & Collars A variety of Carpet and Saddle Bags, Coach, Stage, Twig and Overseers’ Whips, Stirrups, Spurs, Bits and Bridle Mounting. aar Any work made to order in the neatest and most tasty manner, at short notice. 4aff*Strict attention given to repairing in all brandies of the business.

F< mercy to the afflicted, and the gratitude and high opin ion I entertain of DR. MOSELEY as a Surgeon and Phy sician, I deem it my duty to mention the case of my wife, hoping at the same time that all persons similarly afflicted! may be benefitted by it. In the first part of this'year, my wife had several small lumps make their appearance in her breast; they continued to increase in size, until the whole breast became a diseased mass, and very painful. I procured the best medical aid in the city of Rome,and notwithstanding the earnest and faithful attention of our most skillful physi cians, she continued to grow worse and worse, until they j gave the case up as incurable, and advised amputation. I j was advised by many of my friends, to visit Dr. Moseley, of Griffin, Ga., which I did, and, astonishing as it may seem, he had her entirely cored within one month, and ahe is now in good health! I would advise all who are afflicted with Bcirrhus, and Cancerous affections to visit the Doctor with out deiay, as 1 am satisfied by experience and observation that he js the most skillful physician in the Southern States’ in the treatment ot that horrible disease cancer.

YOU DESERVE CREDIT FOR Y n UR I> X SOOVS X-L IT l PROFESSOR Wood’s Hair Restorative, is, no doubt, the most ■wonderful discovery of this age of progress, for it will restore, permanently, grey hair to itsoriginal color, co ver the head of the bald with a most luxuriant growth, re move at once all dandruff and itching, cure all scrofula and i other cutaneous eruptions, such as scald head, &o. It will cure, as if by magic, nervous tu'periodioal headache, make the hair soft, glossy and wavy, and preserve the color per fectly, and the hair from falling, to extreme oid age. We could give the testimony of more than one hundred thousand to the truth of every word we have written. See cimdarand the following : T 1 ic following is from a distinguished member of the med ical profession : St. Paul, January 1, 1855. Prof. 0. J. Wood—Dear Sir : Unsolicited, Isend you this certificate: After being nearly bald for a long time, and having tried all the hair restoratives extant, and having no faith in any, I was induced <>n hearing of yours, to give it a trial. 1 placed myself in the hands of a barber, and had my head rubbed with a good stiff brush, and the restorative then applied, and well rubbed in, till the scalp was a glow. This 1 repeated every morning, Mid in three weeks the young hair appeared, ar.d grew -rapidly from August last, till the present time, and is now thick,’ black and strong— soft and pleasant to the touch ; whereas, before it was harsh and wiry, what little there was ot it, and that little wasdis ; appearing very rapidly. 1 still u.-e your restorative about twice a week, and sin'll soon have a good and perfect crop of hair. Now if 1 had read of these things, and who has not? but have not seen hitherto any case where any per son’s hair was really benefitted by any of the hair tonics, Ac., of the day, and it really gives me pleasure to record the result of my experience. I have recommended your preparation to' others, and it already nas a large and gen eral sale throughout the Territory. The people here know its effects, and have confidence in it. The supply you sent us, as wholesale agents for the Territory, is nearly exhaust ed, and daily inquiries are made for it. You deserve credit fervour discovery ; and I, for one, return you my thanks for the benefit it has done me, for i certainly had despaired long ago of ever effecting any such result. Yours hastily, J W BOND Firm of Bond & Kellog, Druggist, St. Paul We annex a few certificates to corroborate our assertions: Carlisle, 111., June 27, 1853.
