The Forest Hirer.
Stream of the Forest, wild and lone,
With solemn trees above thee bending,
Through whose stirred leaves, with joyous tone
The lark, his matin hymn is sending.
Voice of the wood, wild echoes waking
Laving thy banks, with kisses pure;
Now, into laughing dimples breaking,
Now, mirroring heaven’s own changeless blue.
Wrapped in deep memories, onoe more,
I stand thy lonely banks beside,
And watch, as oft in days of yore,
The changeful beauty of thy tide.
And pure, as thy own waters clear,
Was then, this saddened heart of mine.
And on the echoing morning air,
My voice rang free and blithe, as thino.
T*ve seen thee, when thy banks were clad
In all their gorgeous summer bloom,
When strange bright birds, with voices glad.
Galled from their bowers of rich perfume ;
And thou, pride of the forest, rolled,
Fringed deeply by the bending willows;
And then, I sighed not to behold
The Ocean, with its heaving billows.
And deemed Earth had no fairer sight,
No stream, more beautiful and bold,
Than thine, bathed in the glorious light.
That turned thy waters into gold;
And when pale musing Autumn, fraught
With a strange beauty, and her own,
Stole o’er thee, like aspell, and taught.
E’en thy glad voice a plaintive tone.
And high, her rainbow banners hung
Upon thy lofty forest bowers,
While low, the wailing breezes sung
The requiem of the fading flowers.
I’ve stood and gazed, where round thee lay,
The woods, in warm rich billcws rolled,
(The imperial shroud, of Earth’s decay,!
Os mingling crimson, brown, and gold.
And dreamed, thou wert some fairy stream,
Winding through an enchanted land;
While Fancy lent a golden gleam
To thy pure wave and Bparkling strand.
And when, upon thy slumbering stream,
—Lulled by the south wind’s soft caressing—
Stole the sweet “Indian Summer dream,”
The dying Summer’s parting blessing.
How sweet in those delicious days,
Os softening passion, soothing power,
Os mellow light, and silvery haze,
To dream away, some noontide hour,
While at my feet thy eddies curl,
And fitful shadows o’er thee quiver,
To watch the sky's soft clouds of pearl.
Deep in thy bosom, peaceful river.
And even when Winter’s Icy hand,
Thee, of thy leafy pride had shorn,
And leaves and flowers—a faded braid—
Adorn thy darkened stream were borne;
When swayed the sad festooning moss,
Like mournful fun’ral banners trailing,
And throw a gloomy shade across,
Tby waters, that were wildly wailing.
When on thy banks, devoid of bloom.
Was beard the night owTs ghostly shiv.-r.
Yet. even amid thy dreary gloom,
Thou still wert dear, my Forest River.
And now. although long years have flown,
9 nee first I watched thy gentle motion.
And. on its heaving bosom borne,
I’ve gazed upon tho shoreless ocean
Pve listened bo ita thunders loud,
And, mirrored in thy mighty stream,
7 r ?R‘ erst, bold and proud,
I’ve f--er. tho fading sunlight gleam;
Yet, cot less lovely seem’st thou now,
More dear and beautiful than ever
Stream, that hast laved my infant brow,
My own, wild Forest River.

Live (Loose vs. Ladies * Legs. —The fol
luwing tunny little story is taken tro/n n late
English paper. Whether it contain- a mo
ral or not, we cannot sav, but tve couldn't
help laughing ns we rea<3 it. Let the rend
er say—the male reader, we mean, for ladies
;ire requested to skip it. Here it w :
A singular affair occurred on the Wear
Valley Railroad (Durham.) the other <iy.
A gentleman from Birmingham found hiro
self seated in a carriage, his vis-a-vis, and
the only passenger in that compartment of
the carriage, being a blooming Indy, answer
ing to the alliterative description of “fat, fair
and forty. ’’ The train had scarcely moved
one hundred yards from the station before
the lady leaped from her seat and exclaim
ed to the other passenger, “How dare you,
sir ? What do you mean V* The gentle- ]
man, astonished, replied that “he did not un-!
derstand; he iiad done nothing to harm her.” !
Again and again she sprang up in apparent
terror and rage, and declared with vehe
mence that her neighbor was a “villain, and
she would have him taken into custody at
the hext station.” The gentleman protest
ed his innocence, and asked what he had
done; but the eccentric lady still kept leap
ing from her seat, raving against his treat
ment, till the gentleman decided that she
was mad, and resolved on the arrival of the
train at the next station to give her into cus
tody. As her eccentricity did not abate,
nor her rage either, on the arrival of the
tram at one of the stations, he was about to
carry his resolution into action, when she
suddenly sprang to the door and screamed
out, “Guard! Guard 1” at the top of her
voice, and presently collected not only the
guard, but a crowd of people around her.—
She then commenced her accusation in
words both loud and deep, protesting that
the gentleman had improperly pinched her
legs, and the gentleman, horrified at the
charge, protesting with equal vehemence
his perfect innocence. At this juncture,
when matters looked serious for the gentle
man, the guard happened to recollect that
lie had placed a basket under ifie seat of the
carriage containing a live goose, and pulling
it out the mystery was explained, the bird
being the criminal, and having caused the
lady’s fears and the gentleman's apprehen
sions. This explanation was received with
perfect good humor and satisfaction by the
parties concerned, and the train renewed its
journey amid the convulsive laughter and
applause of the assembled multitude.

essence of medical science on this important subject; as the re
sult of the experience of the most eminent physicians in Europe
and America is thoroughly demonstrated in his own highly suc
cessful practice in the treatment of secret diseases in many thou
sands of cases in the City of Philadelphia alone. ~ •<
The practice of Dr. nuuter has long been, and still is, literally
unbounded, but at the earnest solicitation of numerous persons, he
has been induced to extend the sphere of his professional useful
ness to the community at large, through the medium of his “Med
ical Manual and Hand-Book for the Aiflieted.”
It is a volume that should be In the band of every family in the
land, whether used as a preventive of secret vices, or as a guide
for the alleviation oi one of the most awful and destructive sour
ces ever visited upon mankind for the sin? of sensuality and impu
rity of every kind.
ii is a volume that has received the unqualified recommendation
of tlte first physicians in the land, while many clergymen, fathers,
mothers, philanthropists and humanitarians, have most freely ex
tended its circulation in all quarters where its powerful teachings
would be lfkeiy to be instrumental in the moral purification and
physicafliealing of multitudes of our people, among the young, vol
atile and indiscreet, otherwise the pride and flower of the nation.
The author argues particularly, most strongly against every spe>-
He* of self-defilement, and warns parents atd guardians, in search
ing terms, to guard the young of both sexes from the terrible con
sequences concomitant of their ignorance of physiological laws and
sexual impurities and irregularities, whether exhibited by preco
cious development or arising from tho vicious and corrupting ex
amples of their school-mates or otherwise. To those who have
been already ensnared to the “paths that take hold on hell,” a
clear and explicit way Is shown by which they may secure a re
turn of sound health, and a regeneration of Lite soul from its terri
ble pollution.
It is well known that thousands of victims are annually sacrifi
ced at the shrine of Quackery—especially those suffering from Vi -
nerial or Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Ner
vous Debility, and the numerous maladies which spring direr? ‘y or
less remotely from the indulgence of carnal passions and secret vi
olations of Nature.
In view of these facts, and when ills also considered that about
Mu VO© persons die annually in the United State? of Consumption
-a large mJ u ity being the victim? of the voluptuous indiscretion
of tm-ii progenitors, agreeably to the Scriptural enunciation, that
the-las of the parents are visited upon the children, even to the
third and fourth generation. The Author, imbued with sentiments
of enlarged philanthropy, will scarcely be censured for any effort
to restrain the vices of the age, hy the bixnble instrumentality of
his Medical Manual.

VOLCANIC BEPEATIYG PISTOLS.
THIS PISTOL can be discharged with greater
rapidity and certainty than any other Pistol
now in use. The following is an extract in relation
to them, taken from the New Haven Palladium
‘■Volcanic Repeating Pistol. —Wc have seen and
tired a pistol, recently invented and patented, which
hids fair to excel everything as yet offered in that
line to the public attention. It seems to combine all
that could be desired in such a weapon. Colt’s pis
tol, compared with if, seems like a distortion, ova
clumsy, uncouth and ridiculous affair for a fire-arm.
The Volernie Pistol carries a minie or conical hah
in a rifio barrel, and will put it through a threc-ig?f|>
plonk at a distance of ninety rods. The receiving
tube will hold twelve ball cartridges, which may be
deposited in two seconds of time. The pistols ‘mar
l>e discharged thirty times in fifty seconds. It is so
contrived that it is not liable to accidental discharge.
There is uo priming, no caps, and, therefore, no dan
ger to the eyes from ignition near the breach. Neith
er is there any recoil so as to jar the arm or disturjk,
a sure aim. The whole construction is so simple a*
not to get ou: of order even from long use. The pow v
der arid ball arc enclosed iu the same metalic cover,
so that a poison might swim a river with one of these
in his belt without the slightest degree injuring the
powder. In short, the weapon is in ail respects one
of the most perfect things in the shooting line that
we ever took into our hands.”
