J 1 Then freemen came from every land [ To join our little patriot Jband: And Liberty her flag- unfurl'd, Triumphant through the western world. J When Freedom's battle field was won, I That star became a glorious sun, And on this morn with genial ray, ^ It ushured in its natal day. Musa Bkn Abel Gazan. 1 JSrskine College. ' 1 Dress or Mind.?On Sunday morn < ing, before going to church, what a dres- 6 sing there is among all classes, and what a stir to look gay and pleasing! Is it quite sufficient for the great purpose of 2; our existence, to wash the outside of the 1 platter? Curls may be arranged, fine \ tortoise shell combs fixed, sparkling ear- \ rings hung, splendid garments dis- , played, and yet, perhaps, the gay fair j one's mind may be poisoned with conceit, troubled with rivalry, and kept on the torture by ignorance and vanity. Windsor soap does not wash out the * stains of the heart. Cologne water can- ' not throw a fragrance over an impure < mind, nor all the rubies of Golconda dazzle the recording angel into forget- { fulness of filling up the leaves of the book of retribution. . t < Since the recent order for increasing the inducements for seamen j to enter the Navy, the rate of en- | listing seems to be visibly aug- 2 menting.

The bounty now offered is $20 to sea- ! men and $15 to ordinary seamen. 1 Mr. Eaton, aged 77 years, will \ commence the great feat of walk- \ ing one thousand miles in a thou- j sand hours, at the' Caledonia | Springs, Canada, on the 15th of July. ( Two boys at Portland, Maine, j while at play, discovered a stake { driven in the ground some dis- t tance. They attempted to pull it \ up, but as there appeared to be s something at the bottom of it, their ^ curiosity was excited, and they ^ dug down till a chest, keg or box was discovered, which, on opening, was found to contain about $ 11,000 1 in gold and silver. ? -- .DEES PRESERVED FROM MOTHS. j To prevent the moth laying its j eggs under the hive, I have for ^ the last several years cut a mortice in the bench about an inch deep, and about two inches larger \ than the hive, and the hive is then ( set in this mortice, and the space c of about one inch all around it is' i filled with mortar, then three inch auger holes are bored in the hive about two inches from the bench, * for the egress of the bees, and a { small auger-hole through the bot? c torn of the bench to let off water ' i J oijuuiu ?ny get in the hive. I have near night watched the moths at- ' tempting to enter through these holes, and seen the bees chasing them away.?Southern Planter. An Excuse.?Ail editor out west Tiakes the following apology to lis patrons for the want of editoriil and reading matter in his paper: ' w? - w ?i*vo nu unws IU spare mi& A'eek, no spare space to put it in, ior no spare hands to set it up ; md, what is more, our devil is iick, our paper give out, our ink Iried up, and our wife run off; ind, taking everything into consileration, we do not intend to bestir ..ourselves a great deal until >ur subscribers send us in a few rounds of that bacon and a few bushels of them potatoes promised is a * long time ago V* A man as often gets two dollars or the one he spends in informing lis mind, as he does for a dollar ne lavs out in any other way. A iAid.ii uato ujj a puuuu ui dugai aim t is gone, and the pleasure he enoyed has ended ; but the informa;ion he gets from a newspaper is ;reasured up in the mind to be cnoyed anew, and to be used whenever occasion or inclination calls or it. A Newspaper is not the ivisdom of one man; it is the wisiom of the age, and past ages too. It was among the loveliest cus:oms of the ancient to bury their yroung at morning twilight; for as ;hey strove to give the softest in;erpretation to death, so they imigined that Aurora, who loved the foung had stolen them to her embrace.

A Dark Transaction.?A blind Ethiopian with an extinguished iandle in a dark cellar at midnight searching for a black cat. Frightening a Rogue.?In the St. Louis Recorder's Court, recent, y, Alexander McManus was fined Ive dallars, for stealing wood Tom the steamer Hannibal, and j was asked to " fork up" by his Honor. " C-c-c-cant do it," stuttered he, i-a-a-aint got th-th-the p-p-pewier, your Honor," Are you a married man ? inquired the Recorder. " N-n-not exactly s-s-s-so far ;one yet, sir." 44 Well, I will have to send you ;o the workhouse," said the Recorler. "T-t-taint nothin t-t-to go th? ;h-there." said A lick. I-I-I'm used o it: b-b-but when you t-t-talked ibout m-marriage, old fellow, it f-f'frightened me !" Sheridan Knowles, we see it stated by the Liverpool Chronicle, has become very devoted to reli *ion, performing its duties regulary. The same account says that le has abandoned his profession, )oth as an author and a dramaist. The Star, published in Kane Dounty Illinois, states that twenty\>ur horses were stolen in that jounty in a few days, and near hat number of horse thieves have jeen trapped, tried, convicted, and ;ent to the State Prison. This is vholesale horse stealing with a vengeance. TTVio nnmVioi* nf C ? ?v? tiumvw ui v/iuigraiiis irum Surope to the United States, it is estimated, will amount to 200,000 he present year.

Among all the advertised remedies of the day for ague and Fever, or Chill and Fe*? ver, none seem to meet with such rapidity 1 * * ~ or saie ana give so mucn general satistaction, as Dr Hull's celebrated Pills. Wherever they have been introduced, all tonics in whatever shape, all mixtures and Pills aud preparations of every character, designed for this disease, have been discarded, and Dr. Hull's Ague Pills have been received as the only permanent cure. They stop the Chills and Fever the first day, and do not sicken the stomach or operate on the bowels. Young children and persons of all ages sexes, and conditions may use these Pills, not only with safety, but with the certainty of success. Judge Forrest ot Juneshoro, Ala, was cured oi a severe and obstinate case of Chills, with only half a box, after two physicians had exhausted all their skill. Ma Lewis Covin, of Abbeville Dis. S. C., says he has sold several boxes of Hull's Pills, and never knew them to fail curing the chills and fever in a single instance. Mr Wm S IV/Tilla Iff A hnanilla T^Io B C.t certifies that his wife was cured of an obstinate case of chills and fever of twelve months standing with only half a box of Hull's Pills; and also says liis little daughter was cured of the chills and fever ot 6 months standing with the remainder of the same box. We might give scores of references and certificates, but we refer the reader to our agents, where they may obtain a pamphlet (gratis) giving a full description of the medicine and its manner of use.

The fact of their having cured upwards of forty thousand cases, puts their efficiency beyond doubt. Price 25 cts per box.
