For the Lancaster Ledger (
Childhood's Happy Homo. ,
Heme 'tis a aacred spot
To memory ever dear I
How well do I remember
The vino decked cottage
That stood amid the hills,
The little murmuring streamlet
That swiftly coursed its way
down the sparkling rill.
Where joyously, joyously we while 1 aw iy
Youth's sunny hours, .
When our gladspmc happy heart
Knew naught of care.
Alasl they are gone, those bright joyous scenes
Gone alas! ne'er to return,
And I am left a lone wonderer ^.On
earths gloomy rale of tears,
Far from my childhood's happy home,
Parted from all my heart holds dear,
From friends and kindred near,
Oh, would again we could view
The happy home of childhood dear,
And oh, grant our last and quivering breath
May be spent in our childhood's happy home.

Reformation of William Wirt.
A TRCE INCIDENT IN MIS HISTORY.
The distinguished Win. Wirt, within
six or seven inounlhs after his first marriage,
became addicted to intemperance,
the effect of which operated strongly on
the mind and health of his wife, and in
a few months more she was numbered
with the dead. Her death led him to
lnuuu I Ito AAiinlan !? -1. 1* ' ? ' ? '
wumij 111 nuicii no r?siueu, mm
he moved to Richmond, where he soon rose
to distinction.? But his habits hung about
him and occasionally he was found with
j lly and frolicsome spirits in bacchanalian
.revelry. llis true friends expostulated
with bim to convince him of the injury
he was doing himself. But he still persisted.
llis practice began to fall off, and
many looked on him as on the sure road
to ruin. He was advised to get married
with a view of correcting his habits.
This be consented to do, if the right person
offered. He accordingly paid his addresses
to Miss Gamble. After some
months attention, he asked her hand iu
marrage. She repled:
"Mr. Wirt, I have been well awcro of
* your attentions some time back, and
should haVo given you to understand
that your visits and attentions were not
acceptable, had I not reciprocated the affection
you evinced for tne. But I cannot
yield assent until you make me a pledge
never to taste, touch, or handle any intoxicating
drinks."
This reply to Wirt was as unexpected
as it was novel. llis reply was, that he regarded
the proposition as a bar to all further
consideration on the subject, and he left
her. Her course toward hiin was the
same?his, resentment and neglect.
In the course of a few weeks he went ^
again and solicited her hand. But Iter .
reply was her mind was made up. He i
became indignant, and regarded the terms 1
she proposed as an insult to his honor. J
and vowed it should be the last meeting '
they shojld ever have, lie took to drink- !
ing worse and worse, and seemed to run
hoadlonglo ruin. I
One day, while lying in the outskirts ]
of the city, near a little grocery or grog ,
shop, dead drunk, a young lady whom it t
is not necessary to narr.e, was passing
that way to her home, not far off, and ?
beheM hiiu with his face turned up to the ?
rays of the scorching sun. She took her '
handkerchief, wi?h her own name marked ,
upon it, and placed it over his face. After
he"had remained in that way for some f
hours he was awakened, and his thirst ?
being so great, he went into the little gro I
eery or grog-shop to get a drink, when lie s
discovered the handkerchief, at which he n
looked, and the n#-ne was on it. After
pausing a few minutes he exclaitnpd; g
"Great God! who left this with inet '
^ Who placed this on my face?" n
No one knew. He dropped the glass i
exd^piing? v
'Though ! enough!" '
He retired instantly from the store, for- v
getting his thirst, but not his debauch, ^
the handkerchief! or the ladv, vowinor, if i
God gave him strength, never to touch, I r
last, or handle intoxicating drinks. I
T/-v u:-. o ?i i .... I
V in ins vjriinime WHS the hardest [
efforts of his life. If he met heJhcanriage
or on foot he popped round the nearest cor- "
ner. She at last addressed him a note
under her own hand, inviting him to her
house, which he finally gathered courage
to accept. He told her if she still bore ^
affection to hiin he would agree to her own t
terms. Her reply was: t
"My conditions are now what they ever I
have been." I
"Then," said Wirt I accept them."
They were soon married, and from that
day he kept his word and his affairs
brightened, while honors and glory gathered
thick upon his brow, nis name Iias
been enrolled high in the temple of fame;
while patriotism and renown live after him
with imperishable lustre.
How many noble minds might the
young ladies save, if they would follow the \

How to Make IIknh do thkik Dim* Hie
happiest days in our virtuous life have
x?en spent in the country. There's where
we fastened virtue on us, drove in the nails
vnd clenched thcin on the inside, to make
i* sure thing of it. This virtue is a great
thing, and among other good effects it
leads ns to do all tho good we can to assist
our fellows to the truit of our experience.
The following may Ikj serviceable to our
farmer frieiy^s.
One day, in our youth, while on the
inaguiliceiit farm of Mrs Nancy Smalleye, !
we watched her stuggling with a fractions >
lien biddy, which she had seized by the
legs and was resolutely bearing from the
hen roost. The screams of the fowl were truly
awful and she spread her feathers some,
and indulged in sundry fierce picks at the
under pinningsof Mrs. Smalleye, evidently
dissatisfied with the undignified mode of,
her conveyance.
"What are you going to do with her?*' i
asked we,'going to have a stew for dinner?*' :
"A stew? No, child," was the answer.? |
"Fetch me a tub from the shed, and I'll i
show you."
The tub was speedily brought.
"Turn it upside down," said she.
We did as we were bid, wondering what j
\v?s to be done with the biddy.
Immediately Mrs. Smalleye clapped the '
enraged lien under the tub, and with a
triumphant voice exclaimed:?
"Therenow. stav there you peskverit
tor ! I'll have it out of you to-day, or you j
sliant have a mouthful of wittlea.
Have what out of her?" inquired we, in
n perfect cloud or innocent unsophisticity.
"The eggs, of course," said she.
4,44Wny, you can't make alien lay egg,
can you?"
"Poor child!" said Mrs. Smalloye, with
uplifted eye and a compassionate smile upon
us "You don't know liow 1 do it. You
see, dear Willie, hens will get lazy like
other folks, aud shirk their duty and don't
lay, as if wo could afford to keep them for
nothing. Some folks wi'l put up with it
but I won't l>o imposed upon by no her.,
no indeed. I know their eggs, and 1
can tell as sure as ever was, who does lay
and who don't.?Them that lays, 1. let
have their liberty and go around and pick
and scratch and court the roosters, and tan
talize each other and do just about what
they please. But them that don't I allers
put them under the tub. The handles
you see dear, leave just crack enough for
them to see the other hens enjoying themselves?and
it's aggravating enough I
know. Sometimes they're mighty stubborn,
and won't give in, but eventually
they come to their milk, as the saying
is, and lay an egg?and then I lets them
out. This hen is the contrariest lien I've
seen. I don't much expect to see an egg
out of her before four o'clock. But it's
got to conic?yea indeed !"
Luckily for the hen it did "come out"
in the course of an hour, and she was liberated
and went off cackling proudly, evidently
cheered by the pleasing consciousness o I
having done her duty.?Lit. Museum.

To Prof. Hollow ay :
Sir?A Mr. Joseph I'uxton, formerly a
resident of this place, had been in a declining
state of health for upwards of threo
years, gradually wasting away to a shadow
by nightly perspirations and want of appetite,
which caused great uneasiness to his friends, |
as he had consulted various medical men in
Rath, without effect. He at last used your
pills, and under providence was restored to
health by their means. He lately emigrated
to New York, and has just written to say,
that he was never better in health, and desired
me to acquaint you with the circumstance.
I ought also to mention, that my
wife had derived great benefit from the use
of your Pills

Copy if a letter from Mr. Ciamis, Chemist,
Ytot it, to Prof, tlolloiray.
Dear Sir?In this District your pills command
a more extensive sale than any other
proprietary medicine before the public. As
a proof of their efficacy in Liver and Rilious
Complaints, I may mention the following
ease : A lady of this town, with whom I
am personally acquainted, for years was a
severe sufferer from disease of the Liver and
digestive organs; her medic J attendant assured
her that he could do nothing to relieve
her sufferings, and it was not likely she
could survive many months This announcement
naturally caused great alarm
among her friends and relations, and they
induced her to make a trial of your Pills,
which so improved her general health that
she was induced to continue them until she
received a perfect cure. This is twelve
months ago, and she has not experienced
any symptoms of relapse, and often declares
that your Pills have been the means
of saving her life.
I remain, Dear sir,jrours truly,

which lias proved one of the most popular
Books ever printed in America. All over
the country it has received the most marked
attention, and elicited universal commendation.
from the preface.
If one struggling sister in the grent human
family, while listening to the history
of my life, gains courage to meet and brave
severest trials; if she learn to look upon
theui us blessings in disguise: if she be
strengthened in the performance of "daily
duties," however "hardly paid if she be inspired
with faith in the power imparted to a
strong will whoso end is good?then I urn
amply rewarded lor my labor.
A.nna Cora Mowatt.
We have read this book though " ith more
than the interest of a romance. 'I he fair
authoress herself is one of the rarest ol heroines.
Her eight years upon the stage
furnish a volume of the most entertaining
and instructive experience. But this is not
all?not the most interesting portion of her
remarkable book. She begins with her infancy,
and introduces us to the bright little
butterfly girl sporting among the tie wars of
La Cnstagne, in France, where she happened
to be born. She gives us a brief sketch of
her family, descendants, on the maternal
side,of Francis Lewis, one of the heroic
singers of the Declaration of Independence.
We the follow her in n stormy voyage
across the Atlantic, in which she was ship
i,...i ...i i 1
nmKcu, nHen inn iiniu uruuHTS wore
washed overboard ; one was rescued ; but
"the other was lost." She then paivcly
sketches the history of her sch )ol-day joys
and sorrows, ending with an elopement and
n precocious marriage. All the deiails. botti
tragic and comic, are given with the most
amusing, often affecting particularity, and
the sympathetic reader is (involuntarily led
to make her joys and sorrows his own.?
Like every true chapter of chccqucred human
life, the lights and shadows are nearly
equally, often fitfully blended, and we aro
alternately moved to tears and laughter ?

One of the few books which it is difficult
to lay down till every page is read, is the
Autobiography of Mrs. .Mowatt. I have actually
stolen the time which ought to have
been appropriated to certain special demands
to look through the pages of this strange
volume. To look at any chapter of contents,
is sure to send you to the text; and
to start with the text is to rivet your attention
in spite of every extraneous call. Mrs.
Mowatt's Autobiography will have a permanent
place in American literature. Edition
after edition will come from the press.
It will be the exciting theme of book notices
and even of labored reviews.?.Yew Covenant.
Mrs. M ownttls certainly one of the cleverest
women living In all that she undertakes
she succeeds, and this not so much hy
force of genius as by her womanly bust and
a degree of energy that could scarcely be
expected in so slight and delicate a fr.unc
as hers. She has wilt ton good poetry; good
magazine sketches; the Wat of modern Ameriesn
comedies (Fashion :) a capital poetical
drama (Armnnd :) hastaken high rank
as an actress, and now she has given to the
World the plcnsatilekl hit of autobiography
that we have seen for n long time. It is a
frank, simple narrative, with little affectation
and no uiore egotism than is always unavoidable
where the narrator is the heroine.
I lor school days, her courtship and elopement,
her domestic habits, tier reveries, her
career as a public reader and actress,nt 'nunc
and abroad, her widowhood, and every thing
in her recent history except her second
courtship, which is to take her from public
life, are admirably told. Anecdotes abound
in the volume and there is not a page that
docs not exhibit the traits of a truly "smart"
woman. We shall not be surprised if this
hook takes the lead of all others in popularity
