Tbc Idiot Boy. Wo find thc following beautiful poem in the Lancaster Dai!;; Express, of tho 29th ultimo. Those who have heard this touch? ing effusion recited by tho celebrated tra? gedian, Mr. Forrest, will never forget either the pathos with which he renders it or his simple, affecting introduction to it. Mr. Forrest thinks tho writer was tho brother of the poet Southey: It had pleased God to form poor Ned A thing of idiot mind, Yet to thc poor unrcas'ning boy God had not been unkind. Old Sarah loved her helpless cto?d, "Whom helplessness made dear, And life was everything to him, Who knew no hope nor fear. She knew his wants, she understood Each half articulate call; For be was everything to her, Aud she to him was all. And so for many a year they lived, Nor knew a wish beside; But age at length on Sarah came, And she fell sick and died. He tried in vain to waken her, He called her o'er and o'er; They told him she was dead-thc words To him no import hore. They closed her eyes and shrouded her, Whilst he stood wond'ring by, And when they hore her to the grave, He followed silently. They laid her'in tho narrow house, And sung the funeral stave, And when thc mournful train dispersed, He loitered by tho grave. The rabble boys that used to jeer Whene'er they saw poor Ned, Now stood and watched him at the grave, And not a word was said. They came and went and came again, Arni night at last drew on; Yet still he lingered at thc place Till every one had gone. And when he found himself alouc, He quick removed the clay, And raised thc coffin in his arms, And bore it swift away. Straight wont he to his mother's cot, And laid it on the floor; And with tho eagerness of joy, He barred the cottage door. At once he placed his mother's corpse Upright within her chair, And then he heaped thc hearth and blew The kindling lire with care. She now was in ker wonted chair It was her wonted place; And bright thc lire blazed and flashed, Reflected from her face. Then bending down he'd feel her hands. Anon her face behold; Why, mother, do you look so pale, And why are you so cold? And when the neighbors on next morn Had forced the cottage door, Old Sarah's corpse was in the chair, And Ned'* as on the ?loor. It had pleased God from this poor boy His only friend to call; Yet God was not unkind to him, " For death restored him all! Fun from tlic Wires. A New York papers says thc sub- j jot.led message was handed into the I Utica telegraph office by a gentleman of that city: ' njj0_-; ? "Third Epistle of John, 13th and litk verses. a_" By referring to the text it will be seen that there is quite a respectable letter contained in thc verses desig? nated, and a small amount of money saved, namely: 'T had many things to write, but I will not with iuk and pen write unto thee." "But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and wc shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet thc friends by name." [3 John, 13, 14. A friend in Chicago says: "Thc following message was sent from this place : 'Wait letter before writing. Marsh;' and was received at destination, 'Wash your hands be? fore writing again.' " The following is from Maine: "A genuine 'paddee,' quite aged, living some miles out of town, carno into our office ono day to sell some 'praties,' and seeing the instruments, battery, ?cc, wondered if that was the 'tilligraft.' After gazing steadily for several minutes, he said he had always wanted to ask one question; and this was it: Ts tho wire hollow on the outside or on the inside?' " A foreigner-Messages are trans? mitted by telegraph between Lon? don and in India in twenty-one hours. Many perplexing uncertain? ties and blunders are occasioned by tho translators. The messages have to pass through seven different coun? tries. "Mr. Crawford, a member of Par? liament, says he lately sent to India the following message: 'The news from America favors the holders.' When it was delivered in India it appeared in this form: 'The news from America savors of soldiers!' " "One day during the late German war, while Bismarck's needle-guns were piercing their way through | Bohemia, Renter's telegraph made the ' following announcement to the Eng? lish public: 'The greater portion of the Prussian army has heen taken' here a break in the despatch occur? ed. Buring the hours which elapsed while the win s wore being repaired, the excitement and funds rose to a pitch. When at last the connection was made perfect, the war message was finished thus: 'with camp diar? rhea!' The excitement and funds fell together flat. Talleyrand died a few hom j after having signed a formal recantation of the errors of his extraordinary life, "ile died like a man who knew how to live," said a lady. "After humhugging all this world, he ended by wishing to humbug the other," said M. de Blancmesnil. Never say "die" unless you aie a hair-dresser. Au exchange paper tell? the follow? ing very affecting story : A darkey stood on tho banquette | bare, brooding over his woes; sad ; was his heart and kinky his hair; his j gizzard feet were exposed to air, and j exceedingly seedy his clo's. Oh! j why did do cuss wid do blue coat i conic to set dis darkey free? I was; happy wid Cuffee and Jumbo .Tum wid plenty to cat and plenty ob mm; and Dinah was happy wid me. Old ! massa was good; for when I was sick '; in my snug old cabin home, dc doc- ! tor was sent for to cine my pain; I j was sheltered -from sun. and storm, ' and rain. Oh! why did de buro come? Now dis nigger stands in dc! crowded streets, wid his clo's all tat tered and torn; and no one gives mc I work to do, nor wittles to eat ; and de ! man in blue doesn't pity dis darkey forlorn. If massa would only take j mc home on de old plantation once ! more, I'd pick de cotton and tend do j cane and never think of freedom j again, as I used to did before. Thc darkey ceased; the tears from his eyes stood on his black cheek- ! I bone. Thc sun's hot rays fell on his j head, and a hearty wish that he might j ' "go dead" was thc last we heard him ! groan. _ AN ANECDOTE Woura PRESERVING, j A Paris correspondent guarantees the i following: A Frenchman, a prisoner: in Edinborough, having managed to ? escape, took rofngo in thc powder ma gazine. "When thc authorities wished j to seize him, they found him sitting ! on a barrel with alighted match, and threatening to blow up thc town. Thc I authorities reflected prudently, and j thc result of their deliberations was that it -would be better to starve the Frenchmen out. But they reckoned without their prisoner, who loved j good cheer, and was determined to live well. In consequence ho called out that he would blow tho town to pieces if he did not get three meals a day; he would write out thc bill of fare. Sawney succumbed, and the ! demands of the prisoner went on in creasing. Sometimes he had a sere nade under his window; then a re? view of the garison ; afterwards a ? sham fight, in which thc troops rep- j resenting thc French anny beat thc j Highlanders. At last he exacted that j every Sabbath morning, before ! breakfast, thc Lord Provost, in full ? uniform, should make his appearance and read him an address. This lasted until the allies entered Taris. HAPPI" FI-.TJ.OW.-The local editor! of thc Danville (Va.) Tunes is the I most contented mau we know of. Hear him : We arc happy in being no more j miserable-no wood-no money- ; snow three inches deep, and more, j wc fear, coming-iuk frozen-roller ! ditto-the devil with a bad cold, and heels frost-bitten. Wo don't "care a constitutional for the country; it may sink or swim; the probability now is, j it will freeze. Fact is, we've boen ; out so long in thc cold, vc arc indif? ferent, and don't know that we'd "stand treat" if Uncle Sam would oiler to lake us in. We aro pretty much iii the temper of the obstinate urchin who had kicked (lie cover off and woke his"mammy" in the night, crying out "he was cold." "Well, pull thc cover on you, Johnny," said j she." "Than't do it," replied thc! youth; 'Mumed if I dou't freeth furthst!" ^_ A PRACTICAL BOY.-In a certain i Sabbath school the superintendent made a powerful appeal to thc scho? lars to bo active and useful, and among other things he told them they should all be locomotives, each taking along his train to Heaven. Thc next Sabbath, just as the schcol opened, in came one of tho best and most zealous boys, with thirteen new scholar? behind him and went up the aisle uttering a noise choo, choo, im? itative of the engine, to thc amaze? ment of the superintendent and scholars. "What tloes this mean?"' asked the astonished superintendent. "Why," auswered the boy, "you saitl we must all be locomotives; and nero T am with thirteen cars behind j me." Sometimes I compare the troubles' wc have t< undergo in tho course of ? if year to a great bundle of faggots ! far too large i'or us <.o lift. But God does not requi eus to cany the: whole j at once. He mercifully unites thc ' bundle and gives us first one stick, which wo are able to carry to-day, 1 and then another, which we are able | to carry to-morrow, and so on. This ' we might easily manage, if we would j only take tho burden appointed for each day; but we choose to increase : our trouble by carrying yesterday's i trouble over again to-day arid adeliug I to-morrow's burden to our load be- j fore we are required to bear it. Aa Englishman's idea of America was well exemplified by the arrival of a young cockney from London, last week, at the Clarendon Hotel, New York, and his appearance at the oiliee early tho following morning, with an American rifle he had pur? chased at home, and thc confidential question, "I say, now, my doab fel? lah, are they any of the bloody j Indians about? 1 want to have a crack at some of them, yon know. 1 \ bought this lille todo that sort ol' thing, do you see."

THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT ! milE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, tho great X American Aiterativ?: and Blood Puri? fier, is tke most perfect vegetable com? pound orltlteratives, tonics, diuretics and diaphoretics; making it thc most effective invigorating, rejuvenating and blood? ed, .Hising cordial known tu thc. world. In introducing this new and extraordi? nary medicine to tho public, observation leads us to remark that too little attention is paid to the "life of all flesh," tho bl-.od. Many disease s, and, too, many complaints, which have their origin in a vitiated state of the blood, are treat d < nly as symptoms amt results; whereas, if th- remedy had been applied'to enrich tho blood and ren? der it pure, beth causo ai d , i?ect would have been removed. Tho Qu< en's Delight i* offered to the afflicted as a sun; remedy for those disea.-es arising frr>m an impure condition of the blood. It has a direct and specific action upon that fluid, and consequently renders thc blood pure. It is said, on high authority, that .'man no sooner begins to live th .n he begins to die, and that the characteristics of the living organism ave. ceaseless change and ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless the blood is pure, in supplying the waste tis? sues with material, it must be the cause of innumerable ills ami constitutional disor? ders, such as Scrofula. Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, Ac. Life and health is only to be maintained by the circulation of pure arterial blood. We therefore advise every one whose blood is in the least vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whose constitution is im? paired by disease and is suffering from Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Boils, Itching Humor of the Skin, Erysi? pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness of tho Skin, Pimples, blotches, Pains in the Bones, oki Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictio Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of the Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in the Back, General Debility, and for all complaints arising from deficiency and poverty of blood, to use tho Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution, suffer? ing from weakness and depression o? mind in consequence of those complaints which nature imposes at the period of chango, have a pleasant end sure remedy in the Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex? ion gave early promise of health and beauty, but too soon become blanched and pale by some hereditary taint of the blood, will have the rich boon restored by using the Que n's Delight. Thu unacclhnated and pt rsons traveling into wann countries will find tho Queen's Delight a gr-'at protection from all malari? ous affect io:, .TU! diseases which originate in a change < :' climate, diet and life. The extra ordinary and unprecedented cures performed by- the Queen's Delight Compound is attracting the attention ol (.very one. not only at hume, but abroad. Tho'merits of this compound ure being tilt and appreciate,! everywhere. Hear what they say Of ii. in New York: "It is a' remedy of much importance and value, exerting an influence over all the secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative. It is extensively used in all tho various forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its uso ia followed by the most successful results." Its properties as a .< mody ?-. ,- f;.-t in? troduced to the notice of the pr .., n b_\ Dr.Thoa. Young Simons, of South Carolina, as early as 1828, as a valuable alterative r< - medy in syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring use of mercury. Dr. sine,ns" state? ments have been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobil,-, and Dr. II. ll. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt the efficacy ol this medicine in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutan, v.s Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affection: and other com? plaints benefited by ilterativc medicines.
