And the sower on the plain, His long buried seed now finding, ' Guttering heaps of mellow grain, Into golden sheaves is binding! In the cold and narrow tomb, Costlier seed we bury weeping, And in this its quiet home, Leave it io our Saviour's keeping, To the end we cannot see, .

A post mortem exami? nation of the unfortunate maa deve? loped the astonishing faut, that his stomach and intestines contained one stone 2}/> inches long, weighing 1% ounces; another stone, of irregular shape, 1 % inches in diameter, weigh? ing 1 ounce; another iftone, 1 inch in diameter, of the same weight: a piece of corn cob, 2}? inches in length; a wooden handle, such as is used to spin tops, 4% inches long, and half 1 an inch square at the* end; another stick 2% "inches long, and over half an inch wide; and a corh husk, 14 inches long, which had been thrust down his throat without chewing. The ease was very remarkable. [^Providence Jo urned. New York Advertisements. DEVLIN & CO., CLOTHING AT ANT RETAIL i "VJCTE open the seasAwith a large stock W of elegant CLOTHING and FUR?

The termination of a sanguinary contest, which for the past four years bas presented an impassable barrier to all social ar com mendal intercourse between the two great sections* of our country, having at length happily cleared away all obstacles to a re? it oval of those relations which formerly bound ns together in a fraternal union, I tako tho earliest opportunity afforded mo by this auspicious event, to greet my South? ern friods, and to solicit from them a re? ?r walof that ext nsi ve business connection which for a quarter of a century baa been Uninterrupted, sa,ve br tbs great public calamity to which I have adverted. It is scarcely necessary, ois the threshold of a business, re-union, I should repeat the warning so often given to say friends-to beware of sll those spurious and deleteri? ous comp ounds which, ender the specious and false titles of Imported Wines, Bran? dies, Holland Gin, Liquors, &c., have been equally destructive. to the health of oar citizens ss prejudicial to the interests of the legitimate importer. Many years of my psst life have been expended in an open and candid attempt to expose these wholesale frauds; no time nor expense has been spared to accomplish thia salutary purpose-, and to plao*> before my friends and the public generally, at the lowestepossible market price, and in such quantities as might suit their convenience, a truly genuine imported article. Twenty-five years' business transactions with the largest and most respectable 'ex? porting houses in France and Great Britain have afforded mo unsurpassed facilities for Supplying ?ur homo market with Wine-, .^Liquors and Liquores of the best and most approved brandB in Em-ope, in addition to my own distillery in Holland for the mana fac? ire of the "Schiedam Schnapps." The latter, so long tested and approved by the medical faculties of the United Staten, West Indies and South America as an invaluable Therapeutic, a wholesome, pleasant and perfectly safe beverage in all climates and during all seasons, quickly excited the cupidity of the homo manufac? turers and venders of a spurious article under the same name. I trust that I have, after much toil ?nd expenso, snwounded aU my importations with safeguards and directions which, with ordinary circumspection., will insure their delivery, as I receive thom from Europe, to all my customers. . .?> I would, however, recommend, in ?ll eases whore it is possible, that orders be sent direct to my Depot, 22 Beaver street, New York, or that purohases be made of my accredited agents. lu addition to ? large stoek of Wines, Brandies, Ac, in wood, I have a consider? able supply of old tried foreign Wises, em? bracing vintages of many past years, bot? tled up before the commencement of the war, which I can especially recommend to aU connoisseurs of th?se rare laxuries. In conclusion, I would specially ??ll the attention of my Southern customers *o the advantage to be darived by transmitting their orders withouewoss of time, or calling personally at * he Depot, in order to insure the fulfillment of their favors from the pre? sent largo and well selected assortment.
