(selected.) LOVE UNCHANGEABLE. Yes! still I love thee :?Time, who sets His signet on thy brow, And dims my sunken eye, forgets The heart he could not bow ;? Where love that cannot perish grows For one, alas ! that little knows How love may sometimes last; Like sunshine wasting in the skies. u 7 When clouds are over cast. The dew-drop hanging o'er the rose, Within its robe of lights, Can never touch a leal' that blows,. Though seeming to the sight; And yet it still will linger there, Like hopeless love, without despair? A snow-drop in the sun! A moment finely, exquisite. Alas! but only one. Enough that in delicious dreams, 1 see theo and fnrorpt - to Enough that when the morning beams, I feel my eyelids wet! Yet. could I hope when Time shall fall, The darkness, for creation's pall, To . jet thee?and to love,? I would ntfTshrink from aught below, Nor ask for more above. EPIGRAM. 'Tis said that Truth is doom'd to dwell Down at the bottom of a well; (How cruel thus to duck it!) 'Mongst us so seldom it appears, That 1 brgin to have my fears Truth.must have kick'd the bucket. A Locofoco editor in Indiana preaches a long sermon from the text " Memento moi i," which he translates u Jiemejnber to die." We SUDDOSC tho. nnor follow ?<a that people will forget to die, and so live forever.?Louisville Journal. A man can't help what is done behind his back, as the loafos said when he was kicked out of doors. An Irish paper, in noticing the appearance of a celebrated actress, says; The house was crowded with hundreds more than it could hold of admiring spectators, who went away without a sight. Domestic Economy, Some courtiers were talking of their household affairs, and in particular of the wages they gave their servants. One ot them observed, that he grave his maitre d'hotel a hnn. dred pistols ; a second that he allowed his six hundred. " And I," said one, " I go far beyond either of you, for I allow mine four thousand irancs per annum." At first the whole party were astonished at this exorbitant allowance. At last one of them thought of putting the question, "but do you pay him 1" " Oh, no," said he. A Lucky Printer.?Mr. Las fayette Stiff, a compositor in the office of the Cincinnati Times, received a letter recently from Alabama, enclosing a remittance, and informing him that by the decease of a relative, he was now the heir of property and cash of over $10,000 value. We can imagine, (says the Enquirer) that he must have drawn an exceedingly long breath when that intelligence met his eyes. Well, we don't know of any body that has a better right to such Jucit than printers, for, as a general thing, they can appreciate those little trifles to the fullest extent. At a late election in Memphis, three printers were successful candidates : one was elected Sheriff, another Alderman, and the third Constable. " Mithter! mithter ! what have you done, said" a little "shaver" with protruding eyes to a " greeny" who had just finished tying his horse to a spruce pole, as he thought on Merrimack street. "Done," said the fellew ; "what d'ye mean; I hain't done nothin not's I knovw on." " Why, yifch you have thir, vou?ve jeth hitched your hofch to the Mag* netic Telegraph, and you'll be in Bothton in leth than two minnith if you don't look oufc" x he man untied his horse with nervous anxiety and jumping into his sleigh, drove hastily down the street.-?Vox Populi. J There never was a lady so virtuous or moral that she would not hook another's dress when an opportunity ^oftered, / 1 More Blunders than one.?An Irish nobleman on a journey, was in formed that his w?v lav a _ ' J "v w ruined bridge which he would be obliged to pass in the night. He ordered his postillion to call him when they reached the dangerous place, then wrapping himself in his cloak went to sleep. When they reached the bridge ?he postillion called, but as his master did not awake, he drove on and passed over.?Soon after the traveller awoke and called out:?" How is ( this ! John have you passed the ( broken bridge ? " " Yes, your honor." " Why did you not wake me as I ordered vou to do ?" ' T HJrl not like to disturb your honor." " Upon my honor, it" we had all fallen in the water and been drowned, I would have put a bullet through your head." " By all the martyrs, if you had, I would < have left your service the next ' minute, if 1 had starved." \ Look into the life and temper of J Christ, as described and illutrated . in the Gospel, and search whether 1 you find anything like it in your own life. Have you anything of his humility, meekness, and benevolence to men? Anything of his purity and wisdom, his contempt ' of the world, his patience, his for- , titudc, his zeal. \ "Genius will always work its way through, as the poet 'Said ] when he saw a hole in the elbow of his coat. ii- < A down east editor wonders why his subscribers, who are ram- i pant for Oregon, will not walk up 1 and pay their subsciptions, after J having had more than a " year's ] notice" that the payment would i be yejcj^desirable. 1 The Farmer.?With no inheri- j tance but health, with no riches | but industry, and no ambition but i virtue, he is the sole king among ' men, and the only man among kings. An Irishman, recommending a cow, said she would give milk, year after year, without having calves, because it run in the breed, as she < came from a cow that never had ! a calf.

H. A. JONES, G. E. < Comm'rs, Office, 23rd Feb, 1846. 13 52 . Dr. Spencer's Vegetable Pills, 1 i and Vegetable Tonic and Restorative BITTERS. The value and efficacy of Spcncer's Vege. i table Pills have long been known and ap1 preciated in a srreat variety of diseafips-nn?l as the best and most important of Family < Medicines. Dr Spencer having been actuated by a desire to benefit his fellow beings, has also prepared his Vegetable To- , nic and Restorative Bitters, which he now , offers to the public, as the result of an ex-> ( tensive practice, and thorough investiga- | I tion of the laws which govern the human | system. ^ ' They are purely Vegetable, and may be | taken with perfect safety by all ages and j sexes in youthful, adult and declining life. { The design of Spencer's Vegetable Pills , ! and Vegetable Tonic Restorative Bitters, { is to create a flow of pure healthy bile, in- , ' stead of the stale and acid kind. The obiect of the Pills is to stimulate all the vital organs of the system into t.ction, and thereby cleanse the stomach and bowels of all the morbific and offensive < i -I - ? *- 1 1 uuuci wim wuiuu me system is closed, and which promotes disease. The Bilters are to strengthen and restore the stomach and vital organs, to their proper tone and vigor. When this is accomplished, good health must be the result. The complaints that come most directly ' under their influence, and for which they i are so particularly designed, are as follows: i Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Dyspep- ! sia, Liver Complaints, Sick head-ache, t Enlargement of the Spleen, Jaundice,Piles < Cholic, Bowel and summer complaints, 3 Impurities of the blood,Female Obstruct 1 tion, Heartburn, Incipient Diarroeh, Habi- i tual Costiveness, Determination of blood to the head, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion and in all eases of Torpor of the bowels, where a cathartic or { apperient medicine is needed.

Full directions accompany the me. j dicines for their use,in all those complaints for which they are recommended. , Price 25 cents per box for the Pills, and < $1 per bottle for the Bitters. c Reader! do not fail to notice the follow- ? ing certificate from Mr James Lindsy, of 1 Jefferson, Jackson co., Geo. c To Dr. Spcncer? March 18, 1846. * Dear Sir: I have made great use of I If - t i - * jruur vegeiaoie jfiua in my family lor the c last thice years, and I consider them the * best medicine in use. I have made con- 1 siderable use of Peters' Vegetable Pills, fl and many others, but 1 am convinced that v yours are superior to any of them. For r Sick Head Ache they are an excellent u medicine; for Bowel Complaint I think a them the best medicine 1 ever used. Some of my neighbors are also using your Pills with the most decided benefit. Id fine, I ' candidly confess that I have derived more Kreal benefit from them than from any other I medicine 1 have ever used: and I think that every family should always keep a supply of them on hand.
