fiMin. For the Empire State. M K E 8 TO A SISTER. BY M. A. E. DOUMAN. Cheer up, my dear sister, be strong, Be valliunt for Jesus thy King, This warfare it cannot last long. Then with Angels in Heaven thou’lt sing. Thy conflicts will shortly Ire post, Thy sorrows will soon have an end, Then thou shalt have triumph at last, Aud live with thy Saviour and friend. Though thy path may be rugged through life, Cheer up and press on for the prize, Though here thou hast toiling and strife, There tears will be wiped from thine eyes. There pain and affliction are o'er, There storms and temptations will cease, When once thou hast gained the blest shore, Thou wilt reign with thy Saviour in peace. There, there, in that beautiful land, Bright Angels will help thee to sing, ‘ Redemption throngli Jesus’ name, All glory to Jesus my King ! With kindred so dear, gone before, Again their lov'd laces to see, Where sorrow and sighing are o’er, There happy forever thou'lt he. Oh land of the blessed above. Where flowers unfading may bioom, May we dwell in that region of love, When laid in the cold narrow tomb. Fayetteville, May 10. 1856. For the Empire State. Mr. Editor : It may not he uninteresting to some of your readers, to know that the following “slang phrases,*, as they are termed, are of classic origin, and that the English Wit, Thomas Hood, is the father of them. I quote from the Li brary of British I’octa, published by Little, Brown & Cos., Boston. Hood, Vol. 1. “Done brown"—Tale of a Tram, pet, page 2, Ilood lias it. of Dame Spearing’s Ear Hearing, Wisdom, Wit, Music, &c. “They might as well for any such wish, Have been butter'd,Bone brown, and laid in adi.-h.” “Moral saw “Hocus pocus, not worth a straw.” p’g 11. “But think wliat thousands and thousand.- of po aids, We pay for nothing but heaving sounds Bounds of Equity, Justice and Lave, Parliamentary jabber and jaw, Pious cant and moral sot”, Hocus poms, aud Nong-tong-paw, And empty sounds net worth a straw “ “Like it or lump it (page 11) of the danger, being Deaf, while one is walking out of doors, “A Bullock comes, oa mud as King Lear, And you never dream that the brute : s near, Till he pokes his horn right int > vourear, Whether you like the thing or lump it. And all for want of buying a trumpet ‘ ’ In “Bianca’s Dream,” (page 85) Bin's a in me midst oi her devotions, is serenaded l>y her 1-vtr, . ’ and the song i all about her perfections—. “Now after list’ning to such lr.v.d ; >•.:•< rare, ’Twas very nstn ‘a! iudeed to go— What if she did postpone -me. little prayer, To ask her mirror “if it wa-net so':” ’Twas a large mirror none the war c for n ear.

When was the hour? Eleven jot- .. tower of old St. Mark. She sat with eye -1 . .kd quietly h> • Heaven, perhaps rejoicing in the grateful dark that veiled her binshing check, for Julio had brought her of course to break the ice upon the water.” I could multiply extracts from the three Vo’umns oi’ j Hood almost ad infinitum, but 1 will not trespass further on j your columns, or the patience of your readers. A. G. T. i From the Philadelphia Daily Times. Interesting Inciter from Jenny Lind- Her Sympathies for Baruum. • ‘A friend in need, &c.’ We have been favored with the perusal of a letter from Jenny Liitd Goldschmidt, to a lady in this city of which the following is an extract: “1 had been apprised, previously, of his and fa culty with the company, (Jerome Clock, ) bn had not the least idea he was deeply involved Now that the crush lias come, and ruin and poverty stare him in the face, I feel that he has all my sympathies. Yes, I do most deeply sympathise with him. T know the American people will hardly believe him to be ut'erii ruined. 1 his is to be expected, as 1 c ( Bar naul) had the reputation of being a smart shrewd, and intelligent man, the truth o! which 1 can myself bear witness to. Mr. Bur num had other qualities, of which the Anvri can people knew little or northing, his n t ire was the very acme of generosity,and thousands of untold and unheard of generous deeds wi 1 fully atone for any errors of judgment he may have and doubtless has committed You know my dear friend, those gifts of charity concerts, which I was made to participate in, u t that it did not meet my cordial apt roval,\et, tiny all sprung from Barnum, which, a!tie ugh he was shrewd enough to know would ret urn ten fold, yet his soul was in the act. nor h ould he listen to ray remonstrances, t hat, he -sh< uid share in whatever credit might h rve been at tached to them. I knew, also that lie was con tinually importuned by needy peo; le for ussis tance, and 1 can mo t positively assure you as 1 believe to be the case, that none eve est him unassisted, who was in the iea>t des. rvi u I think, however, I hat his geuious and tab nt courted obscurity. His detci mim and iv:li, will s ton : rouse him to action, and in a short space of time he will have surmount and the dis ficulties that now surround and oppress him, and which would have paralyzed t e eiicmi- > of an ordinary man.

PROFESSOR Wood’s Hair Restorative, is, no doubt, the j most wonderful discovery of this ago of progress, for it will restore, permanently, grey hair to itsorigiual color, co ver the head of the bald with a most luxuriant growth, re move atonce all dandruff and itching, cure all scrofula and ’ other cutaneous eruptions, such as scald head, /fee. It will cure, as if by magic, nervous or periodical headache, make i the hair soft, glossy and wavy, and preserve the color per fectly, and the hair from tailing, to extreme old age. We could give the testimony of more than one hundred thousand to the truth of every word we have written. See circular and the following : The following is from a distinguished member of the med ical profession : St. Paul, January 1, 1855. Prof. 0. J. Wood—Dear Sir : Unsolicited. Tsend you this certificate : After being nearly bald fora long time, and having tried all the hair restoratives extant , and having no faith in any. I was induced on hearing of youis, to give it a trial. I placed myself in the hands of a barber, and bad ! 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, and in three weeks the young hair appeared, and 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 of it, and that little was dis appearing very rapidly. I still use your restorative about twice a week,‘and shall soon have a good and perfect crop of hair. Mow if lhad read of these things, and who has not ? but have not seen hitherto any case where any per son’s hair was really bcnelitted by any of the hair tonics, Ac., of the day, and it really gives ine pleasure to record the result of lhy experience. 1 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 foryour discovery ; and I, for one, return you my thanks for the benefit it liars done me, for I certainly had despaired long ago of ever effecting anv such result.
