Vittte 9Jfos. THE INTEMPERATE. BY JAMES OTIS ROCKWELL. Pray, Mr. Dramdrinker. how do you do? What in perdition's the-mattter with you? how did you come try that bruise on the head? Why are your.eyes so infernally red? Why do you mutter that intidel hymn? Why do you tremble in every limb? Who has done this?-let the reason beshown, And let the otrenler be pelted with atone!' And the Dramdrinker said-'It'you listen to me, You shall Iheur what you bear, and shall see whatyou see. Ihad a father-the grave is his bed; 1 had a mother-she sleeps with the dead, Freely I wept when they lett ene alone, But t shed all my tears on their grave and their stone; I planted a willow-I planted a yew, And leftthem to sleep tll the last trumpet blew! Fortune was mine, and Imunoaited her car Pleasure from virtue had beckoned uen tar: Onward I went, like on avalanche down, And the suhine of fortune was changed to a frown Fortune was gone, I took to my side A young, and a lovely. and beautiful bride! Her I entreated with coldness and scorn, Tarrying back till the break of the morn TSlighting her kindness, and mocking her fears Casting a blight oni her tenderest years, Sad and neglected and weary I left lier, Sorrow and care of her reason bereft her Till like d star, when it f ias trout its >ride She sunk on the bosom of misery, and died! I had a child, and it grew like a vine Fair as the rose of Damascus, was mine; Fair-and I watched o'er her inno'ent youth, As an angel t'romn henve,. wotd ov r truth. She grew like tier mother, in liature iand form: Her blue eye was languid, her check was too warm. Seventeen summers had shone on her brow The seventeeth wanter behold her laid low! Yonder they sleep in their graves side by side. A farther-a mother-a daughter-u bride! When they had lets me, I stood here alone; None of my race or ini. kindred were known! Friends all forsaken, and hinpeall departed Sad and despuiying, and desulate hearted Feeling no kindess fortuight that was human, Hated by main, and deserted by woman Bankrupt in fortun-- and rtned in name Onward I kept in the pathway of shanne; And till this hour, since aty father went down, My brow has but knowni a continual frown! 'Go to your children, and tell them the tale; Tell them his check, too, was lively pale; Tell them his eye was all bloodshot and cold; Tel: 'hem his purse was a stranger to gold: Toll them l. passed through the world they are in, The victim of sorrow, and misery and sin: Tell them when life's shameful conflicts are past, In hirroc aced angiuisi he perished at last!" .tliscellaneous. From the Charlstot Courier. THE NOBLE SCIENCE OF LAW. A gentleman of the profession, now no more, of the Western Circuit, defended a client for hog stealing, but notwithstanding his efforts a conviction was had. The Act of Assembly in describing this offence. says-"If any person shall be indicted and found guilty of stealing any sheep, goats or hogs, he, she or they lie subject to a penal ty of five pounds sterling, for each and eve ry sheep goat or bog, for stealing of which, he, she or they may be convicted as afore said." The next section i'npnses whip. ping in default of payment of the faie. Upon the trinal it came onir in evidence, that the hog stolen was a pig. A monig the grounds, in arrest of judaemnent, and for a new trial, was one which went to the merits of the case, viz:--"That the defendant was founid guilty of stealing a hog, when the eviidence only established that he stole a pig, which wvas no offence under the statuite. Judge Nott, who was the presieinig Jus tice, asked the learned advocate if he in tended to press ttcat groundl? Advoeate. Certaicily I shall press that groundc. it is myn chief reliance in the case. Judge Nott. You then say ai pig is not a hogi Advocate. Certainly. What would your honor call a young sheep? Judge Nott. A la mb. Adl ocatee. What is a youtng goat? Judge Nott. A kid. Advocate. A young dog? Judge Nott. A puppy. Advocate. The young of the domestic hen. Judge Nett. A chicken. A dvocate. Thle young of the gaudy but terfly. Judge Nott. A worm. Advocate. I think youir honor will now see that I have a moset amnple and irresisti ble defence, anti in the course of my atr. gutment, I will he able fully to sat isfy the Court on the point. The learned gentle man proceeded itn the ense, A RGUJME NT. May it please youar honor. My unfor tunate clienit has been convicted of hog stealing against the most positive testimno ny. All the witntessos for the prosecution declared the animtal taken to be a pig. (L aughter ) Now, I would ask if a pig can grunt? No, thetn he enn be no hog.-. When a man saivi he will go the tohole hog, bristles and all, he cnnnot mean at pig foar a pig has no bnisiles. 'itnd is butt the minim of a hog. (Latighter.) If your honor wans to send your servanot to market to buy a pig,and lie brougjht yotu home a hog weigh. aug 300 lbs.. I app~lrehe'nd you wounld not consider him nas hatving obeayed your orhers. (Laughter,) When you speak of a man, you certainly do inot mean an infant at the bosom of its mother, If ho lie otne and twventy years of age, he will he at man, but until then, he is an infant in lawv and fact. When a pig cani grunt he is a hog, and not till ihen. (Laughter.) 1 shall urge the point no further. The additional dlay to February, once in fouir years, seemns very naturally design. ed to increase th0 spring necessary to a kIan year. CLOCKS, WATCES aUd. JE W*ELLER 1.

GOODE; Admn'r. h %pnt3,.3 1 I 33 e Dr. John Sappington's A1%TI-FEVERt FILLS, Ire offered to the public as a certais and effeual remedy for fercrs of evey descreption. I AM of opinion that all fevers are a unity of disease fromthe wildest intermittent up to he higihest grade of yellow fever, and that the liIferent denominations of levers, are simply wing to some particular state of the atmosphere ir to some peculiar conditioi of the system; and vith slight variations,.such as I have wade, the reatmeit should be the same. I ama ailso ofopin oi that tjli must be the prevailing theory of the lay, or how is it that physicians treat fevers broughout with Calomel and a few other deple ives. le.-cription and treatment of fevers. viz:-1st. Intrrmittent or Ague and FEver. 2dlv. Bilious Ne'err. :kily. Typhus or Nervous fever. and all other fevers by whatever name they may be called. 1st. Of latermittcnt or Fever and Ague. I consider all fevers of an intermittent character which cool oil' once in twenty-four hours, wheth er preceded by a chill or not; or whether the fever .nd chill rise and ca'ntime together, or if there lie imi chill at all. Sometmune, fever of this character continues 24 or 4$ hours without inter miission, and sometimes itoccursonly every third day. iin tenths oflthe fevers of this state, and most other states or this utnion, partake mor' or less of this character, and ims all their various up pelartnces the treatment should be the same. I'his medicine cures by correcting the bile, giv in y tone and energy to the stomaclh and bowels, and thereby communicating health and strength to tIme whole system It is also possessed of such singular and admirable properties, that it does not sicken the stomiach nor operate on the bow els as a purgative. It breaks the fever i1 from 24 to 4i hours. ourii- whirl time the patient feels no sensible benefit from it. b finds him self suddenly well without I..iin conscious ofits mude of operation. There is no arsenic or any other tirticle of a poisonous mitttire in this medi cine. It is entirely harmless; women in ally sit uation may take it with perfect safety; and if double the unantity herein recommended was ta ken, no had efl'ects wouhl be produced by it. The increased demanml fir this medicine, lis in dlced inc in future ta prepare it only in the form of pills, as the traniportatio, of vials is both in. ronvem-ient and unsae. For grown persons or children who prefer t:mki g it in it liquid form, it ean be prepared colvenieamly by any person in the following munner pound twelve pills well, put the preparation into n vial, and pour two caommo imized table spoonfillsol whiskey or wa ter to it- spirits of'anv kini are best. Any other 1pun tity of' the ligmiid ay be prepared at the anme time, b% imcr'msing or lessening the asuanti ty of the medicine in the sae pioportion as de. scribed above. Treatment -If the patient prefers taking a nuke or purge before he commences the use of this medicime, I have no objection, but itis rarely if ever necessry. lIe can drink cold water or make use of any kind of diet suitable for a sick person, without the least dan'ger, or sullering the lightest inconvenience from it. A grown per son will take fomr a dose a pill or common sized tea spoonful of the liq uid every two hour- hoth lay amid might. unti the disease is broken: chi-I Iren $ or 10 years old will take ;0 or 40 drops, and those three or four years old will take 15 or 10 drops. and iufants 3 or 4 weeks old will take from 't to 6 drops. repeated and continued as re comnendel for grown persons. But as persons are very sub.,ect to a relapse or return of this dis ease, iletiher they are cured in this orany other way, it would be well to continue taking three or our doses a day until the strength and complex iau are restored, and particularly if the person has already had several relapses. tine box will cure two persons ofa common attack of ague and fever. Before the liquid is taken the vial should be well shaken. 2dly. OfBilious Erer. This is a more obsti nate and dangerous disease than intermitent or ague and fever, there are generally 'three orfour days indisposition previous to the onset of this disease. and freq ently chilly setnations for a day Dm two afler. Whets this di ease is properly formed it rarely yields to any treatment under n or 10 days. and sometmnes much longer. idly. Of Typhus or Nerrous Fever. This is still a much more obstinare mnd ln.gerous disease tihan bilious fever. and apparently mire m.d in the commencement.
