1rm the Esening signal. PRAYER. Give me, Oh God, the power and will To do to others as I still Would they should do to me. Give me a conscience free fiom guile; Teach me on earthly things to smile; And turn my heart to Thee. Thou know'st that heart's most secret spring; To thee no fAse account I bring; For all--all Thou dost know; UnerringJudge! to Thee I bend: Thou kilow'st my being, aim and.end; And Thou wilt mercy show. W)wen I have-erred, Lord, forgive; When re been right, grant while I live I in-thatpath may. stay. And oh, whenever worldly pride, Would lure my wand'riag steps aside, Do'thon directmy way. IsABLtA Gaunx. . wm to Albany Advertiser. WOMAN. 0 how bright Is woman in her beauty: she combines All charms possessed of nature; the light'cloud Wreathing its folds across the smiling blue, Is not more graceful than her gliding step Thogem is not more brilliant than her eye, Tbe bird's note not more melodious than her voice, Bheiaashrine where man should bow him down Forget his paltry mean soul'd love of self, Andin the sunlight of her purity See the dark shadows of his own vile heart. Use of Limein Agriculture.-The Dan ville Intelligencer, a neat little paper which we always welcome, because we expect to find in it something relating to atairs in Columbia county, gives the fol lowing interesting information: Mr. William Caldwell, of Valley town. ship, near Danville, raised 400 busbels or wheat from a field of 12 acres, the past sea son. Five years ago, the product of the same field- was 30 bushels. In the mean time. Mr. Caldwell has spread 1500 hush es of lime on the said twelve acres ofland. This fact discloses another of the decided advantages of our Iron region. Here lime can be had, in any quantity at as cheap a rate as it can any where be burnt, and by Itsjudicious application to the land, to gether with clover and manure, our farm ers will raise as much grain to the acre, as can be produced in any other county in the State or Union. The farmsin sev eral of our townships are already in a high state of cultivation, and rapid im provement is perceptible in all quarters of the county. In Derry, the past season, some of the new and valuable settlers from Northampton, Berks and other coun ties, informed us that they were gather ingas much grain to the acre, here off the land that cost them $30 per acre, as they formerly did in the old counties off of land that they sold for$80 per acre. From the.Carolina Planter. WNiDnas or CuLTVArr or.-There is scarcely a vegetahle which we now culti vate, that can be found to grow naturally. Buffo has stated that our wheat is a fie titious production, raised to its present con dition by the art of agriculture. Rye,rice barley or even oats, are not to be foutnd wild, that is to say, growing natural in any Part of the earth, but have been altered by the industry of mankind from plants not sioW resembling them, even in such a de gree as to enable us to recognize their re lations.' The acrid and disagreeable opi u ganeolens has been transformed into delicious celery, and the colewort, and plant of scanty. leaves, n*t weighing alto gether half an ounce, has been inproved into cabbage, whose leaves alone weigh saany pounds; or into the cnuliflower of considerable dimensions, being only the embryo of a few buds, which, in their nat ntal state, would not have weighed as ma ny grains. The potatee again, whose in troduction ham added millions to our popu lation, derives its origin from a small bit ter root, which growvs wild in Chili and Monte Videob Cheap Afanuring.-Many farmers in' this State, of late years, have adopted the practice of manuring their land for wheat the ensuing season, by turning in green crops. For instance, take a field when the grass upon it is fully grown, say the lit of Jnly, and turn it nicely over with a plough. Then harrow, and sow with buckwheat. In rout or five weeks, that is=, by the middle of August, this crop will have attained its growth. Turn this un der with the plough, as you didi the grass befor,. These two green crops, thus plosghed unnder, bring to the soil much snanure from the green haum ncquired from the atmosphere. They creato an active fermentation, make the 'soil light and pliable, and manure it more than .if the earn. had been cut in the form of hay and fodder, and given to horses and'dattle in the barn. It is, on the whole an excel lent mode of enriching soils, which will or - dinarily produce good wheat the next'sea son.-MaineCultivator." Sign. of Rain.-The air, when dry, I, believe, refracts more red, or heat-making rays; and as dry.air is not perfectly trans parent, they are again reflected in the ho rison. I have generalli observed a cop pery or yellow sutr-set to foretell rain; hut, as an indication of wet weather anroach ing, nothing is more cercain tha ,a halo round ahe'moon, which is produced by the arepited water, and the larger the cir .je. the nearer the clouds, and consequent .lydheinbre ready to fall. Saa H. Davy. Women often affect to seem unaffect * .~1an take great care to appear careless. Vegetable Life Medcines. T HESE Medicines are indebted fo, their name to their manifest and sen sible action in purifying the spriigs an phannels of life, and -enduing thern witl 'enewed tone and vigor. In many hun dred certified cases which have been madi public, and ip almost every species of dis ease to which the human frame is liable the happy effects of MOFFATS LIFE PILLS AND PH(ENIX BITTERE have been gratefully and publicly. ac knowledged by the persons benefitted, au( who were previously unacquainted witi the beautifully philosophical principlei upon which they are compounded, auc upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recomment themselves in diseases of every from & de scription. Their first operntion is to looset from the coats of the stomach and howels the various impurities and crudities con stantly settling around them, and to re move the bardened fmces wbich collect i the convolutions of the small intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitual costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sudden diarr. hca, with its imminent Jangers. This fact is well known to all regular anato mists, who examine the human bowels after death; and hence the prejudice ol these well informed men against quack medicines-or medicines prepared and he'ralded to the public by ignorant persons. The second elfect of the Lire Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lunps, the healthful action of which entirely de pends upon the regularity of the urinary organs The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the hear;, being thus purified by thetn, and nourished by food coming from a clean stomach, cour ses freely through the veines, renews every part of the system, .and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the bloom. ing cheek. Moffat's Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughlv tested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatu lency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn atnd Headach, Rest lessness, Ill-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhma, Chol era, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism Gout, Dropsiesofall kinds, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consumption, Scurvy, Ulcers, Inveterate Sore-, Scobutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive complaints. Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions. Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and Influenza, and various other complaints which afflict tie human rame. In FEVER and AouE, particular ly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful - so much so, that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians aknost universally prescribe them. All that Mr. 3offat requires of his pati ents is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the diree tions. It is not hv a newspaper notice, or by anything that Ite himself may say in their favor, that he loopes to anin credit. It is alone by the results of a fair trial. MOFFAT'S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health, This little pamphlet, edited by W. B. loi'at, 375 Broadway, New York, has been published for the purpose of explain ing more fully Mr. Moffat's theory of dis eases. and will be found highly interesting to persons seeking health. It treats upon prevelent diseasos, and the causes thereof. Price, 25 cents-for sale by Mr. Mof'at's agents generally. These Valuable Medicines are for sale y C. A. DOWD. Edgefieltd C. H.

Spanish Portuguese and German. - The high and universal reputation of the Biantdeth 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 efect-oni the blood is universally allowed-all that. have' ever used have approved ana-recommended them. In many cases where the dreadful ravages of ulceration had laid bare liganientaud bone, and where to all appearance, 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' section of this wide extended country where they are made known, and are fast surperseding. every other Preparation of professed similar, import. Upwards ofFourteen Thousand cases have been certified as cured, solely from their use since the introduction or that into the U.. States, thus establishing the fact beyond all, doubt, that the 19randreth Pdl cure the (appa' rently) most opposite disease9, by the one sinple act of continnally evaciating the how, els with them, until the disease give way; therefore, whatever may be said of tile suoar, the UTILITY of the PRACTICE is snow BEYOND all: DOUBT. As Brandreth's Pills cure Scurvy, Costive n ess, and its consegtences, sensfaring 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 they are kept dry. Southern gentle men will find this medicine one that williusure health to the people on their estates. Be careflf aud never purchase Pills of a Druggist, PRoFEsSIVo to be Brandreth's Pills. Under so CIRCOSTANCES us any one of this' class made an Agent. My own established. Agents have INvARIABLY an ENGRAVED Certifi eate, signed B. Brandreth, M. D, in.my own hand writing.
