THE BUlNT PARSONAGE.
BY W. w. J.
ANo is the house indeed burnt down,
Where God my life did give;
Where I for many a happy year,
With parents kind did live.
Who taught me all those holy truths,
Which now my life sustain;
And led my infant heart to trust
God's pure and sacred name!
'Twas here my tongue first learned to lisp
The dear Redeemer's praise;
And here my mother taught me how
My voice in prayer to raise.
My Father here each night did pray
For blessings on our head ;
And ev'ry morning renderd thanks
That none of us were dead.
Those parents dear, have bid adieu
To this dull scene of strife;
Their spirits pure have gone to dwell
With Christ who is their life.
Two tender sisters here were born,
One brother dear was taught;
To yield obedience to His laws,
Whose blood salvation bought.
That brother now the debt has paid,
Which Adam's sin entail'd,
But joyous is the glorious thought
God's promise has not fail'd.
Those sisters now are in the South,
Far from their early home;
And I, poor abject one, am left
In loneliness to roam.
Dear house, farewell! within thy walls
I ne'er can list' to fervent prayer,
But memory's power shall oft revive,
The holy songs that warbled there.
Then let us all remember well,
We live in houses frail,
Which soon must totter to their fall,
And earth-born treasure fail.
There is a house by God prepar'd,
And mansions ever new,
Where thro' eternity the saints
The Saviour's face shall view.
--
THE MERRY HEART.
'Tis well to have a merry heart,
However short we stray ;
There's wisdom in a merry heart,
Whate'er the world may say.
rhilosophy may lift its head
And find out many a flaw,
But give me the philosophy,
That's happy with a stiaw.
If life but brings us happiness
It brings us, we are told,
What's hard to buy, though rich ones try,
With all their heaps of gold!
Then laugh away, let others say
Whate'er they will of mirth;
Who laughs the most may truly boast
Ho's .got the wealth of earth.
There's beauty in a merry laugh,
A moral beauty too
It shows the heart's an honest heart
That's paid each man his due;
And lent a share of what's to spare
Despite of wisdom's fears,
And makes the cheek less sorrow speak,
The eye weep fewer tears.
The sun may shroud itself in clouds,
The tempest wrath begin ;
It finds a spark to cheer the dark,
It's sun-light is within!
Then laugh away, let others say
Whate'er they will of miirth;
Who laughs the most may truly boast
Hie's got the wealth of earth !
How Jim Donnellan Oat-traded Uacle
Billy Snow.
OLD UNCL: BILL Sxow was, and is the
keenest trader in the country. lHe was nev
er known to make a bad bargain. Many a
trap has been laid to catch him, but his ope
rations always turned out so as to add som<.
thing to his pile, and still more to his reputa
tion.
Some time since a party of young men
were talking of Uncle Billy's great luck in
this way, and various instances were men
tioned of his extraordinary trades, and his
uniform success. Jim Donnellan at length
off'ered to bet that he would catch him be
fore two days. Of course, that bet was tat
ken as soon as it was proposed, and soon
afterwards Jim left us to make his prepara
tions to win.
The next day w.ias Court day, and Jim and
Mr. Snowv met at the Court House.
" Good morning, Uncle Billy," says Jim,
" all well to-day 1"
"Pretty well, I thank you, Jim, my son."
" Any trading on harrd, this morning ?" en
quired Donnellan.
"Nothing in particular; times is rather
dull just now; people don't trade as they
used to do."
" That's a facet, Uncle Billy," responded'
Jim. "WVell, since nothing better offers,
'sposo you and I make a trade ?"
" No objection in the world, Jim. Go ahead
and let's hear from you."
" Well, Uncle Billy, I have a mare yonder,
that I want to trade for that male of yours
howv will you trade 1"
"I don't know exactly," responded Mr.
Snow, " but as mules are generally consider
ed worth more than horses, and your mare
is getting along in years, I 'spose ten dollars
wouldn't be too much boot would it? Give
moe ten dollars and your mamre, and you may
take the mule."
"Done !" exclaimed Jim, perfectly de
lighted.
The money was paid over, and the critters
were handed ever to their new masters.-Jim
took his mule home, and that night the beast
lay down and died. This wias a sore blow to
he determined .to save himself. The next
morning found him and Mr. Snow at the
same place, and in conversation as follows
"Uncle Billy," says Jim, "I think you
came the strong game over me, yesterdny, in
that mule of yours. I don't like in so
much this morning as I did yesterday-I
don't think he improves much on acquaint
ance-what'll you take to rue?" (Swap
back.)
" Now, Jim, my son," answered Uncle Bil
ly, " I don't want to be hard on you, but you
took me up yesterday at the first hop, and
you know a trade's a trade. But if you are
very anxious to rue I don't care much. Give
me ten dollars more and you may have your
mare back."
" Uncle Billy, I'll do it," exclaimed Jim, in
great delight. "But only on this condition.
each man must come after and take away his
own beast. I didn't bring my mule along to
day, and I see you didn't ride the mare, so it's
as long as it's broad. I'll give you the ten
dollars now, and I'll go home with you first
and get the mare, and afterwards you can
send, or come for the mule at any time."
" Any way, Jim," replied Mr. Snow.
The money was paid, and Jim and the old
man started. The next day when the same
crowd had met to decide the bet, Jim was
there giving in his experience :s follows:
" The old man and I rode along very cosily
together talking about everything in the
world except our trade. That question I
dodged. I was afraid to open my lips until
I got my mare safe. At last we reached the
old fellow's house, and he said to me, as we
entered the yard-" Jim, my son, there is
your mare-you can take her away with
you." And boys d-m me, if there wan't
the old mare, lying in the yard, as dead as a
door nail. Tie infernal cuss had died the
same night with the mule !"
WHY is a woman's tongue like a planet?
Because nothing short of the power that
created it, is able to stop it in its course.
The man who perpetrated the above co
nundrum has left for California. le was
pursued by forty women, and forty broom
sticks were picked up in the harbor after the
vessel left, having been aimed at the villain's
head. but unfortunately missed the mark.
A SKINFLINT.--" John," said a careful
father, "don't give Cousin Simon's horses
too many oats: you know they have hay."
" Yes sir," said John, moving towards the
barn.
"And hark ye, John-don't give them too
much hay: you know they have oats."
HARD DETNKING.-An Irishman being re
quested to define hard drinking, said "it was
sitting on a rock and sipping cold water."
TuE WIFE of a black man had presented
her husband with male twin children. Meet
ing a friend Sambo was asked if they looked
like each other. " Yes, by golly," replied he,
" so much alike that you can't tell thorn apam t,
'specially Pomp."
As honest dame in the town of--, stand
ing beside the corpse of her deceased hus
band, bewailing in piteous tone his untimely
departure, observed, "It is a pity lhe's dead,
for his teeth are as good as ever they were."

DR. HIOOFLAND'S
CELEBRATED GERMIAN BITTERS
rarPARED nY
DR. C. 131. JACKSON,
AT TILE GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
120 Arch Street, Philadelphia.
T IIEIR power over the above diseases is not
excelled-if equalled-by any other prepara
tion in the United States, as the cures attest, in
many cases after skilful physicians had failed.
Tiese Bitters are worthy the attention of inva
lids. Possessing great virtues in the rectification
of diseases of the Liver and lesser glanads, exer
cising the most searching powers in weakness and
affections of the digestive organs, they are withal,
safe certain and pleasant.
Read and be Convinced!
The editor of the " BosToN BEE," said, Decem
ber 22nd, 1850:
Dn. HloortNxn's CrLFnnATED GFnaTAN BIT
Trits for the eure of Liver Coinplaint, Jaundice,
Dyspepsia, Chronic or Nervous Debility, is deser
vedly tine of the most popular medicines of the
day. These Bitters have been used by thouisands,
and a freind at our elbow says he has himself re
ceived an effectual and permanent eure of Liver
Complaint from the use of this remedy. We are
convinced that, in the use of these Bitters, the pa
tient constantly gain strength and vigor-a fact
worthy of great consideration. They are pleasant
in taste and smell, and can be used by persons
with the most delicate stomachs with safety, un
der any circumstances. We are speaking from
experience, and to the afflicted we advise their use.
" Sco's WEEELY," one of the best Literary
papers published, said,
"Dr. HooFLAND's GEaRSAN BITTERs, manu
factured by Dr. Jackson, are now recommended
by seime of the most prominent members of the
faculty as an article of much efficacy in cases of
female weakness. As stucht is the ease, we would
advise all mothers to obtain a bottle, and thus save
themselves mutch sickness. Personts of debilitated
constitutions will flid these Bitters advantageous
to their healtht, as we know from experience the
salutary effect they have upon week systems."
More Evidence.
The " PnILADEV.PI SA~er nnAY GAZETTE,"
the best family newspaper published in the United
States, says, of these valuable Bitters:
"It is seldom that we recommendl whlat are
termed Patent Mediciines, to the confidence and
Patronage of our readers; anal therefore when wve
recommnend Dr. Hionfland's G;erman Bitters, we
wisht it to be distinctly understood that we arc not
speaking of the nostrumis of the dlay, that are
noised about faor a brief p'eriodl and then forgotten
after they have done their guilty race of miscrhief,
hut of a medliaine long established. universalir~
prizedl, anal which has met the hearty approval of
the faculty itself."
Evidence upon evidence has been received tlike
the foregoing) from all sections of the Union. ithe
last three years. atnd the s'ro'ngest testimony in its
favor, is, that there is more of it usedl in the prac
lice of the regutlar Physicians of Phiadelpahia,
thtan all othter nostrnms colnhined. a fact that can
e.asily be established, and fully proving that a sci
entilie preparation will meet with their quiet ap
proval when presented even in this form.
That thtis tmedicine will cure Liver Complaint
and Dyspeprii, nto one can doubt after using it as
directed. It acts specifically upon the staomach
anal liver; it is preferable to calioel in all bitious
d'sases-thae efhect is imnmedhiate. 'They can be
adlministeredl to female or infant with safety and
reliaibe benefit at atny tone."
Beware of Counterfeiters !

which is necessary for all medicines to attain to
iiduce counterfeiters to put forth spurious articles
at the risk of the lives of those who are innocent
