From the Alezandria Gazette. THE WORLD A BARBER'S SHOP. Our notions rightly kittled up, No one a doubt can harbour, That all the world's a barber shop, And every man a barber. The farmer, be's a barber's friend, And ready in a trice, sir, To lather with a recommend, And shave us with a price, sir. Mechanics, they are barbere, all, Nor lackeys at the play, sir, They lather, when for work they call, And shave us for the pay, sir, The Doctor, he's a barber too, He lathers with a pill, sir, And many applicants, or few, He shaves us with a bill, sir. The Merchant, he's a barber too, And who that him surpasses? He lathers with fine calico, And shave the beardless lasses. Our Congress Members, lately have Assumed the barber's station, And without lather, tried to shave With double compensation. But of all the suds-bedoubing host, With razors whet the keenest, The lawyer lathers folks the most, And shaves mankind the cleanest. From the Savanna& Telegraph. A Lucar EznTon.-The editor of the Lafayette (La) Gazette, has received a present of a beautiful pair of black silk stockings, in which was folded the follow ing poetical communication, in hand evi dently feminine. We are not surprised that "he is all nervous," to find out the sources of so handsome a favor: In travelling through this vale of throns. We often suffer from our corns And in our hose wear many holes, Muchilto the inj'ry of our soles. Supposing you may share with all The suffierers fromlAdam's fall, (Quite from any mockings,) - AccepQ dear sir, (nor take it i1 That thus I show kind good will,) A pair of black silk stockings. Gratitude and Patriotism.-A very poor and aged man, busied in planting and grafting apple trees, was rudely interrupted by this interrogation: "Why do you plant trees-You cannot hope to eat the rruit of them?" He raised himself up and leaning - on his spade, replied,"Some one planted trees for me before I was born, and I have eaten the fruit; I now plant for others, that the memorial of my gratitude may live when 1 am dead and gone." Two things wellconsidered, would pre vent many quarrels; first, to have it well ascertained whether we are not disputing about terris, than things; and, secondly, to examine whether that on which wve differ, is worth contending about The king of Denmark died lately int the 73d year of his age. He has directed public afifairs for 56 years, during 32 of whbich he wore the crowvn. The liberty of *the press-the extinction of the feudal system-a reform of the law and encour agement of education-a system of econo my j'n ihe finances-are amongst the fruits of his long and eventful life. He is suc ceeded by his cousin Christian, the Crown Prince. It is supposed that ?50,000 a year will be allotted to Queen Victoria's husband besides a suitable outfit. This in the pres ent condition of the country. will be a splen did marriage gift. Her Majesty's Annual Revenue is ,?500,000, as fixed by Parlia 'ment, but we believe there are some et ceteras in addition. Among other Victoria "cadeaus" to her dear Albert, are a dressing case mounted in gold, and a star set with diamonds. Costof the first only fifteen hundred pounds! Sixteen lives arc supposed to have been lost by the falling of the walls in the de struction of the St, Louis Exchange at New Orleans. Fifty thousand pounds worth of gold and silver is annually employed at Bir mingham for plating, and therefore for ever lost as bullion. The direct tax of Kentucky is 10 cents on the $100. That of Indiana is 30, and of Ohio 50 cents. The three most beautiful words in the English language are, mother, home, and heaven. -Poetry is the divinest of all arts, for it is the breathing or expression of that prin eiple or sentiment which is deepest or sub liest in hnman nature. When a true genius appears in the world you may know, him by this .sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.

Y OU are respectfully informed that 70 MEETING STREET 70-is my Office for the exclusive sale of BRANDRETH'S VEGE TABLE UNIVERSAL PILLS. Price twen ty five cents per box, with directionsin English, FrenchSpanish Portuguese and German. The high and universal reputation -of the Brantdeth Pills, renders it unnecessary tocom ment largely on their particular virtues. As an anti-bilious and purgative medicine, they are unequalled by any. Their purifying effect on the blood is oniversally allowed-all that- have ever used have approved and reconimanded them. In many cases where the dreadful ravages of ulceration had laid bare ligament aud bone, and where to all a pearance, no human means could save life, have patients by the use ofthese Pills, been restored to good health; the devour. iug disease having beencompletely eradicated. In consequence of the pleasantness of their operation, they are universally used in every secti of this wide extended country where they made known, and are fast surperseding every other Preparation of professed similar import. Upwards of Fourteen Thousand cases havo been certified as cured, solely from their use since the introduction of that into the U. States, thus establishing the fact beyond all doubt, that the Brandret Pilla cure the (appa rently) most opposite diseasee, by the one simple act of continually evacuating the bow els with them, until the disease gives way; therefore, whatever may be said of the THEORY, the UTILITY of the PRACTICE is now BEYOND all DOUBT. As Brandreth's Pills cure Scurvy, Costive ness, and its consequences, seasfaring men, and all travellers to foreign regions, should not be without, in order to resoit to them on every occasion of illness. No medicine chest is re. quired where they are. N. B,-Time or climate affects them not, provided th are keptdig. Southern gentle men will findthis medicino one that willinsure health to the people on their estates.

My own established Agentshave INvAABLY an ENORAVED Certifi cate, signed B. Brandreth, M. D, in my owr hand writing.
