"TAKING THINGS COCLY." 'You're an infernal scoundrel!' said i fierce footing gentlemen, the other day, com ing up with great wrath to a Yankee wh( was standing quietly on the sidewalk : 'yoi are an infernal scoundrel!' 'That's news to me,' returned the Yankee quietly. 'News, you scoundrel! Do you call thai news ?' 'Entirely so.' 'You needn't think to parry it off so easy : I say you are an infernal scoundrel, and I car prove it!' I <T vnn will nnt: I shouldn't like t( - / be proved a scoundrel.' 'No, I dare say you wouldn't, but answei me immediately?did, you, or did you not say, in the presence of certain ladies of m} acquaintance, that I was a?' 'Calf?' Oh, no, sir; the truth is not tc be spoken at all times.' 'The truth! Do you mean to call me ? calf?' '0, no, sir, I call you nothing.' 'It's well you do; for had you presumec to call me a?' 'Aman, I should have been grossly mis takeu.' 'Do you mean to say that I am not a man7 'That depends upon circumstances.' 'What circumstances ?' 'If I should be called as evidence in i court of justice, I should be bound to speal the truth ?' 'And would say that I was not a man hey? Do you see that cow-skin ?' 'Yes, and I have seen it with surprise ev er since you came up.' 'What surprise ? Why do you suppose 1 was such a coward I dare not undertake tc use the article when it was demanded ?' 'Shall I tell you what I thought ?' 'Do it, if you dare.' 'I thought to myself, what use has a calj for a coic s skid r 'You distinctly call me a calf, then?' 'If you insist upon it, you may.' 'You hear, gentlemen,' speaking to the by standers, 'you hear the insult. What shal I do with the scoundrel ?' 'Dress him! dress him!' shouted th< crowd, with shouts of laughter. That I'll do at once.' Then turning to the Yankee, he cried oui fiercely, 'Come on, step this way, you rascal, anc I'll flog you within an inch of your life.' 'I've no occasion.' 'You're a coward.' 'Not on your word.' 'I'm a liar, then, am I ?' 'Just as you please.' 'Do you hear that, gentlemen ?' 'Ay !' was the response, 'you can't helj flogging him now.' 'Oh, heavens grant me patience ; I'll flj out of my skin.' 'It'll be so much the better for your pock et?calf skins are in good demand.' 'I shall burst.' 'Not here in the street, T beg of you. I would be quite disgusting.' 'Gentlemen, can I any longer help flog ging him ?' on 'Not if you arc able,' was the reply. 'G< at him?' Thus provoked, thus stirred up and en couraged, the fierce gentleman went lik< lightning at the Yankee. O O But before'he could strike a blow, lu found himself disarmed of his cow-skin anc lying on his back under the spout of a neigh boring pump, whither the Yankee had car lied him to cool his rage; aud before h< could recover from his astonishment at suet unexpected handling, he was as wet as : drowned rat from the cataract ot water wnici his antagonist had liberally pumped upoi him. His courage had, by this time, like thn of the valiant Bob Acres, 'oozed out at tin palms of his hands,' aud he declared, as hi arose aud went away dripping from the pump that he would never trust to appearances a gain, and the old Ilarry himself might un dertake to cow-hide a cool Yankee for all o him. GOING TO "SPREAD HERSELF." We find the following "hoop" rolling thi rounds of our exchanges; it is from the Sai Francisco Glolc : As a newly married couple, evidently fron the country, were promenading Montgomery street last evening, their curiosity was sud denly aroused by the appearance of souk mysterious looking articles, dangling in i large window. They eyed them with th? deepest concern, first on one side then on thi other, until at length the husband, havim completely exhausted his imaginative pow ers, drawled out: "Well, Sal, consarn my picter if then aint the cussedest looking things I ever heart of." Then twisting himself about, and giving the contents of the window another look he added, "What on airth kin they be ?? What do you yucss the darucd things are V "Why, Jake, don't you know?krinrfin< and hoops /" "Do you tell 1" ejaculated Jake softly? "Them's 'em, is they?" and he again rat his eyes about the strange apparel. "I think they are so sweet," veutured Sal when at the same moment, a lady dressed ii the very height and breadth of the fashioi rushed along. Jake had seen enough. His mind wa made up. Sal, must have a "krineliuc."? Without saying a word he started to entc the store, but was stopped at the door by he with all sorts of entreaties not to carry th joke any further. But Jake was determined He had taken a fancy to the goods, am could not rest until his better half was sup plied with them. She drew back, but it wa of no avail. lie gathered her arm tighly ii his own, and making a long stride iuto th establishment, exclaimed; ' 'Come along, old gal, your'c my wife now and ef you shan't spread yourself." There resides on Core Hill, in Utica an eccentric genius, rejoicing in the cognc men of Jemmy O'Brien. Jemmy being or of work last Fail started on a tramp for a jol Passing towards noon the residence of a <wel tOrdo' farmer near Sittsville, Jemmy's olfa< tories were regaled by the good things aboi to be served up, and having a desire to te; their quality, he thought he would apply ft work. He did apply, and was engaged, (i least to eat a good dinner.) Jemmy havin done justice to the dinner and himself, th 'Squire* wanted to know what'Jemmy coul do about the farm. ' A most anything you'd set me about, si you will suit me. Are you a good cradler ?' j 'Bcdad aud it's nieself that is,' replied ! Jemmy, 'but couldn't you give me some out: door work. 1 Shall I see you home Miss?' timidly i stammered a youth one dark night, to a! > young lady of his acquaintance, who was pre- j i pering to leave the old school-house.

Upon hearing himself spoken of; i as " the soldier," the son of Mars, boiling i with indignation, interrupted the pleader: " Don't call me a soldier; I am an officer." 1 Mr. Jeffrey immediately went on : " Well, gentlemen, this officer, who is no soldier, was - the sole cause of the mischief that has occurjred." > j A good story is told about the writing of J. W. Brooks, the great raiiroau manager, t of Michigan. lie had written a letter to a : man on the Central route, notifying him that he must remove a barn, which in some f manner incommoded the road, under penalty of prosecution. The threatened individual . was unable to read any part of the letter but the signature, but took it to be a free pass [ on the road, and used it for a couple of years , as such, none of the conductors being able to dispute his interpretation of the document. f Assistance from Providence.?A Connecticut deacon was attaching a very poor and feeble pair of oxen to a very large load of wood. A neighbor asked him how he expected to get so large a load to market with j so poor a team. The deacon replied that he I expected to have some assistance from Di4 I vine Providence. IIis neighbor asked him whether it would not be as well to dispense entirely with the oxen and let Providence j. draw the whole load. I We remember once of seeing a speci- j men of a sailor's letter, which run as follows : Dear Jack?I want you to send me some pigtail tobacco, taupaulin hat, and a pair of duck trowsers. You must be sure to send the pigtail. If you forget every thing else, don't forget the pigtail. Send me lots of pigtail. Your friend, Tom. A". B. Be sure to remember the pigtail. ^ P. S.

Who hath wo? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause ? who hath redness of eyes ? They that tarry long at the wine, they that go to seek mixed wine.? Look not upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth its color in the cup, when it movcth itself aright: At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingctk like an adder.?Proverbs, 23 : 29, 30, 31, 32. The inspired writer has given us a true picture of the evils of the odious vice which invades our country. We have no better proof of the curses of intemperance in the whole inspired volume of eternal truth, than *1-' ?wiling vr.-> lmve used above. IUUI JIU1 Liuu u> n Uiuu .. w We Lave the whole career of the inebriate portrayed in the above passage. Ilis sufferings a~e painted in unmistakable colors. The consequences, direful as they arc, and the final end of his earthly career, arc depicted in dreadful characters. In fact, we have the whole of the curses and evils pronounced against the drunkard contained in Holy Writ, standing forth as the eternal judgments that have been assigned by the Great I Am, as his future punishment.? The great impartial Judge has solemnly declared in his Iloly Word that "do drunkard shall inherit the kingdom of Heaven."? What a dreadful declaration, pronounced against man by his Creator ! The drunkard truly is a man of wo and grief; he passes through life burdened with cares aud strife that bind him to the earth. His sorrows are great; they are a tiresome burden that heavily presses him down ; he lives in the midst of contentious, broils and strifes; he is a babbler, one that is hated by all; he hath wounds without cause, because lie is continually exposed to the evils of the world; he hath redness of eyes ; he is polluted, debased and ruined forever, unless he forsakes his evil ways and turns to the path of virtue. He is forever suffering broils and strife from without, and stingings of conscience within. Wrath is impending over him, dreadful wrath, pronounced by God himself. He is warned to forsake his evil ways, but being a slave to tbc rum-god, he still clings to the idol that has induced him to leave virtue's path for the alluringsof vice. Suffering humanity cries loudly to the rum-seller to withhold his blighting curses from the poor deluded sot. Philanthropy suffers anil begs that the galling chains of the rum-god may be thrown off the poor inebriate. The gospel calls with a voice of thunder to the pressing throng of drunkards as they arc fast hastening down the steps of shame, dishonor and eternal ruin. 0! that I, with my feeble pen, might reclaim the poor deluded drunkard, who is fast approaching the grave. If bis days are spent in drunkenness, bis doom is fixed in the world of everlasting despair. God, in his omnipotent power, has declared that heaven is the peaceful abode of good and righteous men, and that hell, with all its sulphurous flames, is the final abode of the wicked, and there with all the daiuued the drunkard must forever dwell in chains of eternal wo and misery. Could the chambers of eternal night speak they would utter the moanings and lamentations of those that were hurled to that place by the accursed beverage of the poisonous cup. The bard heart of the rumseller would shrink with fear, when those that were hurled to the dreadful abyss of wo and misery would cry aloud for vengeance. The vender's conscience would sting him with remorse. All the lost souls of drunkards iu the regions of eternal despair would rise up before him, breathing their anathemas upon his head, llell would seen to gape wide its dreadful jaws to receive his immortal spirit that is doomed to suffer the pangs of the burning flames of hell. We think, conld the chambers of wo speak, that the dealer in the poisonous draught would abandon that misery making, health destroying, pocket robbing, soul damning practice which has made thousands of orphans and widows, filled jail houses, furnished penitentiaries, crowded asylums and poor houses, sent thousands raving mad to eternity, there to dwell in unspeakable wo ' ' * _1--.11 ?11 v.?? ana misery wuusi cieiniiy suan iuu ?u boundless rounds.

You have talents entrusted to your care, for which you are responsible. Your influence will be either for good or bad; endeavor 10 exert an influence for good. If you reclaim one poor drunkard, your reward shall be great.

Therefore act well your part in life; exert your influence in the heavenborn cause of rescuing the fallen and restoring thcin to the favor of their friends and their God. Then they may well exclaim in the language of the following stirring lines :? Tell me I HATE the bowl! Ifntc is a feeble word, 1 LOATHE?ABHOR?i->'i vtry soul With stroii;/ disgust is sfirr'd Whene'er I sec, or hear, or tell Of the dark BEVERAGE OF HELL! j Those lines were written by one who had felt the pangs and miseries produced by in| temperance. j You who have escaped the miseries of ini temperance, be diligent in your mission here | on earth?it is a high and noble one, and a crown of glory awaits you,if you are successful in savincr the inebriate from the dreadful i burnings of bell. j Thousands of drunkards arc daily tending ; towards eternity as fast as the wheels of time j can carry them, and thousands more will follow, unless the rum-scourge be stayed.

Sept 10 36 ly the liver mraWMBATNMR 2 PREPARED BY DR. SANFORD, Compounded entirely from GUMS, IS ONE OF THE BEST PURGATIVE AND LIVER MEDICINES now before the public. I that acts as a Cathartic, easier, milder, and more effectual than any other medicine known. It is not only a Cathartic, but a Liver remedy, acting first on the Liver to eject its morbid matter, then on the stomach and bowels to carry off that matter, thus accomplishing two purposes effectually, without any of the painful feelings experienced in the operations ot most Latharltcs. it strengthens the system at the same time that it purges it; and when taken daily in moderate doses, will strengthen and build it up with unusual rapidity. The Liver is one of *jtheprincipalregulators ofthe human body: and fin when it performs its functions well, the pow-e:s of the system are fully developed. The ^\ttomach is almost entirely dependent on thehealthy action of the Liver, for the proper r,1 performance of its functions; when the stotn- ?H:ach is at fault, the bowels are at fault, and the J whole system suffers in consequence of one oi-.^'gan?the Liver?havingceasedtodoitsduty.. ^,For the diseases of that organ, one of the pro-Qn prietors has made ithis study, in a practice ot ri more than twenty years to find some remedy wherewith to counteract the many derange- ments to which it is liable. To prove that this remedy is at last found, any person troubled Lj'with Liver Complaint, in any of its forms, has ^'.but to try a bottle, and conviction is certain. rV These Gums remove ^jail morbid or bad matter from the system. l__; supplying in their place a healthy flow of bile, Vjjinvigorating the stomach, causing food to di-.jjlgest well, purifying the blood, giving tone and H health to the whole machinery, removing the: cause of the disease, effecting a radical cure Billious attacks are cured, and, what is better, prevented, by the r~y occasional use of the Liver Invigorator. |i|j One dose after eating i jis sufficient to relieve the stomach and pre ^ vent the food from rising and souring. : Only one dose tnkenH before retiring, prevents Nightmare. ' T Only one dose taken H night, loosens the bowels gently, and cures Costiveness. One dose taken after LT) each meal will cure Dyspepsia. ^ j JBQfOne doseof two Jvteaspoonfuls will always relieve Sick Head Li ache. One bottle taken for ^T^jfemale obstruction removes the cause of the Qj'disease, and makes a perfect cure. jr^ flnlv nne ilnne imme rplinvou while ,W] One dose often re- peated is a sure cure for Cholera Morbus, and fH, a preventive of Cbolera. !|? Bag" Only one bottle Xj is needed to throw out of the system the effects ?J of medicine after a long sickness. 8Q^,One bottle taker. ^ for Jaundice removes 1 allsallownessorunnatu rr\ rnl color from the skin. One dose taken n short time before eat' ing gives vigor to the appetite, and makes food 1 digest well. 1 One dose often repeated cures Chronic Diar> rhoea in its worst forms, while Summer and Bowel complaints yield almost to the first dose. One or two doses cures attacks caused by Worms in Children ; there is no surer, safer, or speedier remedy in the world, as it never fails. ! #?? A few bottles cures Dropsy, by exciting ' the absorbents. 1 Retake pleasure in recommending this medicine as a preventive for Fever and Ague, Chill Fever, and all Fevers of a Bilious Type. It operates . with certainty, and thousands are willing to testify to its wonderful virtues. All who use it are giving their unanimous testimony in its favor. Mix water in the mouth with the Invigorator, and swallow both together. THE LIVER INVIGORATOR IS A SCIENTIFIC MEDICAL DISCOVERY, and is dnily working cures, almost too great to believe. It cures as if by magic, even the Jirst dose giving benefit, and seldom more thnn one bottle is required to cure any kind of Liver Complaint, from the worst Jaundice or Dyspepsia to a common Headache, all of which are the result of a Diseased Liver. riucn one dollar ren bottle.

Wood?Dear Sir: I have heard much said of the wonderful ctfccts of jour Hair Restorative, but having been so often cheated by quackery and quack nostrums, hair dyes, &c., I was disposed to place your Restorative in the same category with the thousand and one loudly trumpeted quack remedies, until I met you in Lawrencc county some months since, when you gave j me such assurance as induced the trial of your Restorative in my family?first by my good wife, whose hair had become very thin and entirely white, and before exhausting one of your large bottles, her huir was restored nearly to its original beautiful brown color, and had thickened and become beautiful and glossy upon, and entirely over the head; she continues to use it, not simply because of its beautifying effects upon the hair, but because of its healthful influence upon the head and niind. Others of my family and friends are i using your Restorative, with the happiest effects ; 1 therefore, my skepticism and doubts in reference I to its character and value are entirely removed ; ! and I can and do iflost cordially and confidentially j recommend its use by all who would have their ! hair restored from white or gray (by reason of sickness or age,) to original colo- or beauty, and by all young persons who woulu have their hair beautiful and glossy. Very truly and greatfullv yours, SOLOMON MANN. Friend Wood: It was a loug time after I saw ! you at Blissfield before I got the bottle of Restoraj tive for which you gave me an order upon your agent in Detroit, and when I got it we concluded to try it on Mrs. Mann's hair, as the surest test of 1 its power. It has done all that you assured me I it would do; and others of my family and friends, havinc witnessed its effects, are now using and recommending its use to others ns entitled to the j highest consideration you claim for it. i " A-rain, very respectf ully and truly, yours, SOLOMON MANN.
