WHAT IS LIFE? !
Say, what is life ? A feeble flower
Declining as it blooms;
Which bears at heart the withering power
The canker that consumes;
A wintry cloud, an April beam,
A stage for empty strife,
A waking thought, a troubled dream,
Ah ! such is life !
A web of checkered hopes and fears;
A bubble on the wave?
A shade, composed of smiles and tears,
A pilgrim to the grave!
A barque upon the waters tossed,
Ah! such is life!
And what is death ? A dreaded doom
To pleasure's silken slave;
. Who fears to sleep amid the doom
That wraps the silent grave,
To qnit the scene of earthly joys,
Oh, who would yield his breath ?
Resign ambition's gilded toys,
To welcome death?
The soul that feels affliction's pang,
To life's dart ills a prey,
Soprs to the source from whence it sprang
And spurns the cumbrous clay.
No more may terrors shake my breast,
Or waste my feeble breath !
Death rocks the cradle'of our guest,
Then welcome death!

HOW LOST, HOW RESTORED!
Just published, a new addition of Dr. Cnlverwell's
celebrated essay on the radical
euro of Spermatorrhea or Seminal weakness,
Involuntary Seminal Losses, Impotency,
mental and phyrical incapacity, impediments
to marriage, etc.; also constipation,
epilepsy rnd fits, induced by self-indulgence
or sexual extravagance, ttc.
The celebrated author, in this admirable
essay, clearly demonstrates, from a thirty
years' successful practice, that the alarming
consequences of self-abuse may be radically
cured; pointing out a mode* of cure
at once simple, certain and effectual, by
means of which every sufferer, no matter
what his condition may be, may cure himself
cheaply, privately and radically.
The lecture should be -in the hands of
every youth and man in the land,
Seqt under seal, in a plain envelope, to
any address, post-paid, on receipt of six
cents or two postage stamps. Address

all absurd and antiquated notions of dis

system on the ruins, has been the

Pills and Ointment?remedies in keeping
vitk common sense, because subservient
o nature, rather than at variance with her
aws like those in general use. To the
tomach we trace dyspepsia, headache and
;oneral debility; to the liver, bile, jaundice

tysentery, constipation, piles and fistula;
o the lungs, consumption, etc.; to the I
