Jggp Our friend “Romeo” will please pardon us for the late appearance of the following effusion. We shall be glad t hear from him often. To “Juliet.” I’ve gazed on Beauty since we met, On sylph-like forms and brows of snow, And melting eyes of blue and jet — Their beams dispensing joy or woe, — On all they smi’d, or else might frown ; Yet none as beauteous, as thine own. I’ve gazed on lips, whose charms might tempt, The cloistered monk to leave his shrine, Sweeter than e’er the Poet dreamt— Yet none to me so sweet as thine; And voices light as Peris’ songs, Have often thrilled upon my ear— Spell-bound, enchanting list’ning throngs, Yet are thy Syren tones more dear. Atlanta, Aug. 30th 1856. ROMEO. Glade Division B. of T. This Division in Oglethorpe county, is, we are informed by the Recording Scribe, in a very flourish ing condition. It was organized in 1847, since which time it lias enjoyed almost uninterrupted pros perity. This is owing in a good degree, to an ar rangement by which they have a speech from one of the members at each meeting. Bv this means a feeling of enthusiastic interest has been kept alive. One of their Addresses has been forwarded to us, which we now have on file for examination. It is rather too lengthy to publish entire but we will en deavor to make some extracts from it. <1) ■ I'jjf I Candler Division S. of T. A friend furnished us some time since will an account of the manner in which the 4th of July was celebrated by this Division. This was unfortunate ly mislaid and failed to appear at its proper time.— Though late, we hope a synopsis of it may not prove uninteresting. The meeting was well attended and quite a large procession was formed. In the faihu’c of Hon. B. W. Overby and Rev. D. P. Jones, (who had been invited as speakers) the meeting was ad dressed by Messrs. Reid, McDaniel, aid Antony.— The speeches were able, well received, and the whole affair passed off in the happiest manner pos sible. The Division is in a flourishing condition. — Book Table.

Editors: —ln my announcement of the annual session of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Jericho for the 2nd Tuesday in September, I failed to state that it would he held in Atlanta. Each Lodge is entitled to two Representatives, who should he elected at the first regular meeting in September and furnished with certificates in form. They must also he Bethany Degree members. The last, and the present political years have made sad havoc with the cause of Temperance, on the moral suasion principle AYe hope our valiant Knights will buckle on their armor and strike once more for Liberty from the thraldom of this ignoble tyrant, Intemperance. E. M. PENDLETON, G. W. C. For the Temperance Crusader. Origin of the Water on Gilkies’ Mountain. In the northern part of South Carolina, stands Gilkie’s Mountain, which overlooks a vast extent of country. On the topmost peak is a huge stone which is never known to he without water on its surface. If the water be removed it immediately re turns. Hark ! ’tis the dirge of a mortal fair, That comes so sad on the stilly air; The silver bells of the flowers of night Ring out their peal in the lone moonlight. What is the name of the lost and gone ? Gone fir away, gone all alone ! The fairy court in mourning is clad, And hush’d the voices gay and glad. Zeline has pass’d away to her rest, Her white hands cross’d on her cold still breast; Her ebon locks o’er her forehead lay As she left this world at the close of day. Hark! ’tis the Queen of the Fairies speaks And the flowing tears wet her rosy cheeks; “Sing out your songs of praise this even, For Zeline has gone to the court of Heaven.” Do ye know that some years since, a babe Lay sleeping under an elm tree shade In a bright spot of the sunny Soutli ? Gay dimples play’d round its smiling mouth, And it ope’d its eyes as our tram pass’d by, And faintly murmur’d a piteous cry. We bore it then from its glassy bed, And away to the fairy courts we sped. And on couch of eider laid the child ; And it ope’d its eyes and sweetly smiled. Years sped, and the baby grew a girl, Sunlight reflected from each fair curl, Her eyes of Heaven’s own hue so mild, Did } r e mark her glance so glad and wild, When the fairy waned to her pleas’d view, Brought wonders strange and wonders new? And oft she has flown to earth to shed Blessings on those whose hearts have bled; Or gladden’d the joyous festal hour With unseen hand, and magic power. Death came to our lovely flower too soon. She pass’d away at a cloudless noon : Fairest of mortals, yet she must die— liaise for Zeline your saddest cry ! Yet sing songs of joy for her each even For Zeline has gone to the courts of Heaven. She ceas’d 1 and the fairies’ brows were sad, Hush’d were their songs so joyous and glad. They lifted Zeline from her pearly bed; O’er mountains, rivers and vales they sped; And there in the silver moonlight alone They laid her under a dark grey stone, And sat, and wept till the daylight came, And now on the mount of Gilkie’s name, On the topmost peak, in the silence lone, The fairies’ tears wet the dark grey stone. MARY. Limestone Springs, S. C., Sept. 22, 1850. A Valuable Tonic. —The Oxygenated Bitters have received weighty endorsements, comprising the names of distinguished merchants and statesmen, at testing the superiority of this medicine for the cure of Dyspepsia in all its forms. An ignorant, but well-meaning man, ha ing been placed on the commission of the peace in a ru ral district in England, declared, on taking his seat as a magistrate, “That it would indeed be his most anxious endeavor to do justice without fear, favor, or affection.” “In short,” said he, comparatively, “I will take care that on the bench I will never be either partial or impartial.” - Gen. Smith, -of Virginia, was once making a long, tiresome speech in Congress, when pausing, he remarked to Mr. Clay, who sat near him, “You speak for the present, I speak for posterity.” ‘Yes,’ replied Mr. Clay, “and you seem determined to speak on until your audience arrives.” jpfMra*. Vanderbilt, No, 185 Suffolk, street, says of Dr. M’Lane’s Celebrated Liver Pills: Being unwell, and not knowing whether it pro ceeded from derangement of the liver or merely hys terics, I was persuaded to purchaser a box of Dr. M’- Lane’s Celebrated Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., Pittsburgh, and before I had used them all, was entirely relieved. T atn now enjoying perfect health, and cheerfully recommend Dr. M’Lane’s Cel ebrated Liver Pills to all similarly afflicted. New York, March 25, 1852. UPPurchasers will be careful to ask for Dr. M’- Lane s Celebrated Liver Pills, manufactured by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermi fuge in comparison are worthless. Dr. M’Lane’s I genuine Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills, can now be had at all the respectable drug stores. — None genuine without the signature of FLEMING BROS. Sold by J. M. Lankford, Penfield: and W. Griffin, Greenesboro, and by one agent in every town in the South. Editor’s Certificate. Another Cure by Oxygenated Bitters. Burlington, Vt., Nov. 12, 1851.—Gentlemen: I suffered for about a year previous to last spring from a derangement of the action of the heart, which like most others similarly afflicted. I supposed it to be an organic disease, and having seen the Oxygenated Bitters highly recommended for use in such cases, I procured and ; sed a single bottle, with entire suc cess. The disagreeable s} r mptoms speedily disappeared, and I have never, except in one or two instances, easily accounted for, had any recurrence of them, when they were easily removed by a single dose of the Bitters. Being really of opinion that this medicine is of un questionable value as a cure for Dyspepsia, (in which opinion I am happy to know that I agree with many intelligent physicians,) I have no hesitation in per mitting this certificate to he used in any way that will promote its more general use.

Opinion of the Prominent Druggists of Cin cinnati. We the undersigned, Druggists of this City'', have been acquainted with, arid sold for a year or two past, an article of Family Medicine, known as Per ry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer, and wc would as sure the public that in every instance, so far as we know, it has given the best satisfaction to the pur chaser. We can recommend it to the public as an ARTICLE OF GREAT MERIT AND VIRTUE. Indeed, we never knew an article of Medicine be come so deservedly popular in so short a time, which is proved by the fact of its extensive sale, and con stantly increasing demand. Signers: L. D.

Dear Sirs: —I became your agent without feeling any interest in the Medicine, but I soon became very much interested, upon seeing the happy effect it had upon many persons. The increased sales in this State are truly astonishing. I might have collected any number of certificates of its great power in re lieving pain, if I had attended to it at the time the cures came under my observation. The least I can say for the Pain Killea is, that it fully answers the purpose for which it is recommended. A. W. HATCH, Druggist, Milwaukie. Sold by all Dealers in Family Medicines. MARRIED , On the 21st ult., Robert Pouter, Esq., in the 71st year of his age, to Mrs. Willie Titomson, aged 51 years, all of Greene county. “Grave authors say and witty poets sing That honest wedlock is a glorious thing, But depth of judgment most in him appears, Who wisely weds in his maturer years.” OBITUARY. Oh! wherefore mourn the lovely dead, The spirit frfeed from earthly dross ? Tears?—then be they not unmingled shed— For this, to us, is common loss! Died, at Canton, Ga., on the 17th inst., after a lingering illness of several months, Mrs. Louisa Brewster, relict of Dr. John Brewster, in the 54th year of her age. She possessed strong mental powers ; and as sh * . devoted the greater part of her leisure moments to ‘ reading, her mind was well stored with useful knowl- j edge. Kind and benevolent in her disposition, she was highly respected by a large circle of friends and acquaintances. She contributed largely as her lim ited means would allow, to the wants of those around her, in more indirect circumstances; and hv them she will long he gratefully remembered. A few days previous to her departure from this world of sorrow and affliction, she received the ordinance of bap tism; and professed to have a lively hope of salva tion, through the merits of the Lord Jesus Christ. Rest mother, rest! securely rest Until the morning come, AY lien thou shalt seek those mansions blest, Thy spirits happy home ! Glade Division No. 145, S. of T. \ July 31, 1850. ( Whereas, the Supreme Architect of the Universe has seen fit to visit us with an afflicting dispensa tion, in cutting from us our well beloved brother Dr. John I/. Glenn, in the full vigor of his early manhood to the silent tomb—from his sphere of use fulness amongst us to the land of everlasting rest. He had been married but seven weeks when the all-wise Creator saw proper to take him from his bosom companion—dearer to him than every other earthly object—yea,—as dear to him as life itself — He has left a fond and doting wife to mourn this sep aration—but the separation here below is not to he compared with the happy union above, where all will be peace, joy, and everlasting happiness. Our deceased brother was a firm and zealous sup porter of the principles of our Order. In him was concentrated all those virtues and moral traits of character which adorn the upright and good. As a man he was orderly, kind in his family relations, as a brother, a son, and a husband, and altogether a useful man, and a good member of society. But the hand of Death was laid upon him and our broth er is no more. And whilst we deeply deplore this dispensation of Him who giveth and who taketh away, yet we be lieve our loss is his eternal gain. We view this af fliction as a warning to us that whilst in life wc should ever strive to be prepared for the hour of death.— For no man knowetli what a day may bring forth, wherefore, Resolved , That in the death of our well beloved brother Glenn, Glade Division has lost a firm, con sistent and an amiable member, and we mourn his loss with sincere sorrow. Resolved , That although we cannot prevent the sigh of anguish, nor dry the tear of sorrow, we do all wc can by offering our heartfelt sympathy to the widow and family of our deceased brother. Resolved, That us a mark of respect for the mem ory of our brother Glenn, each member of this Di vision wear the usal badge of mourning for the space of thirty days. . , Resolved, That a copy of these Resolutions be sent to the widow and family of our deceased Brother, and that another copy be sent to the I emperance Crusader for publication.

J Merry Qaks .Division, No. 137 S. of T. is in the providence of God, called upon to mourn the loss of one of its beloved members and Worthy Patri arch, in the death of M. S. Hightower, who depart ed this life about 5 o’clock on Friday evening the Bth inst., with Apoplexy, in the 34th year his age. In this Divine dispensation the M. E. Church has lost a consistent and worthy member, Merry Oaks Divison one of its strongest supporters—the Tem perance cause a most zealous advocate; a widowed mother a dutiful and devoted son, his brothers and sisters an affectionate and kind brother, his servants a very indulgent master —this neighborhood one of its brightest ornaments and best citizens. But while we on account of our loss do mourn and deeply sym pathize with his afflicted mother, brothers and sis ters, we mourn not as those who have no hope, but do humbly bow to this Divine dispensation, and trust that the Great Patriarch has taken him from Merry Oaks to the Grand Division above. In token of respect to his memory Resolved Ist, That the furniture and jewels of our Division be draped in mourning, and that we wear the usual badge for the space of thirty days. Resolved 2nd, That a page in our book of Record be inscribed to his memory. Resolved 3rd, That the R. S. forward a copy of this preamble and these resolutions to the Editors of the Georgia Plaindealer, at Lumpkin, and the Tem perance Crusader, Penfield, with a request that they be published, and also that he furnish the fam ily of the deceased with a copy of the same.

The whole of the right side and leg in particular was in a most shocking state.—• Something in the hurry of the moment was applied which caused the Hesh to peel off almost to the bone, and rendered her utterly unable to move; she was carried to bed, medical assistance called in, and her recovery despaired of; it so happened, that a friend who paid a visit that day, had just been cured of a dreadfully had leg by Holloway’s Ointment and Pills, and she recommended the same, the Pills and Oint ment were accordingly bought and used, by contin uing them for two weeks, she was perfectly well, and has written most gratefully to Professor Hollo way, for the cure effected.
