MISOEIiIiANY Hard Times. No business stirring, all things at a stand, People complain they have no cash in hand, "Dull times" re-echoes now from ev'ry quarter. Even irom father tc) the ?on and daughter. Merchants cry out, no money to be had, Grocers say tho times aro very bad; Mechanics work, but they can j;et no pay, BeMix dress genteel, and ladies, too, are bray. Cash very scarce-dancing twice a week Business dull -amusement still ?e seek. Some live awhile-and then, pcrhaos they fail, While many run in debi and go to jail. Thc females must have ribbons, gauze and lace, And paint, besid<-.-. to smooth a wrinkled face ; Tho beaux will dress, go to the ball and play. Sit up all night, and lay in bcd all day, Brush up au empty pate, look smart and prim, Follow each trilling fashion or odd whim. Aro these bad times, when persons will profess To follow fashions, and delight in dress? No! times arc good, but people are to blame, Wiio spend too much, and justly merit shame. - An Old Poem. Fashions. The fashion correspondent of the New York World "writes: The new-fashioned walking-dress is invariably composed of a double skirt, the under one just long enough to escape contact with the pavement, the upper one varying in length with the style and taste of the wearer. The under petticoat may be in folds at the edge, and may be plain aud hemmed in any fantastic style. It is frequently of colored merino or cash? mere, the color adopted repeated in the trimming of thc bonnet or in tho casaque. Young persons aro per? mitted bright colored petticoats, if they always go out attended by their mammas or a femme de chambre. The nppcr skirt is cut, I believe, in sis pieces, straight in front and at the back; no folds at the waist, and almost no fullness at the lower edge, which is subject to a thousand capricious variations; plain, scalloped, pointed Greek and Iioman patterns, and w:iat not; tho edges and thereabout set off ?with either jet or ribbon, or galloon or in fringe. The casaque.is thc co? vering most worn with this style of dress, but it is no longer cut in the ?well known sack style. The peplum proper is straight in front and in the back and pointed at the side! Small hoops are admitted under the walk? ing-dress. The fashions for children show all the time a greater increase of luxury. It was formerly the habit of wealthy parents to keep their youthful repre? sentatives housed up in the nursery until they were transferred to school, and allow them their first glimpse of fashionable life when they had tech? nically "finished" their education, and were ready for participation in active social duties and pleasures. But the case is now widely differ? ent. "Children's parties" are as ceremonious as those of their mam? ma's. Their hair must be frizzled to the same extent, their toilet just as elaborately prepared, and composed of the same costly materials. Little girls must have their white satin slip? pers and little boys their spotless kid gloves. They must have also their jewelry, their studs, their laced cra? vats, and the latest invention, which consists, for boys, of high-heeled shoes with antique silver buckles. Little girls' dresses are, of course, universally gored, and generally ar-, ranged with one large plait at the back. A very pretty little dress is made of checked silk, red and white, trimmed with cross straps of black velvet and small silver huttons. Another is of striped silk, violet and white, scalloped round the bot? tom, and ornamented with leaf em? broidery, executed in white silk braid. Very beautiful cloaks are made for little girls of blue silk plush, finished with large pearl .buttons. With them are worn regular little bonnets of white quilted satin, with blue fronts and inside quilling of blonde and little clusters of pink rosebuds. Boys still wear Knickerbocker suits with high boots in the street, and low shoes with heels, antique buckles, and silk stockings, for dress occa? sions. Bright checks and plaids, cut on the bias and trimmed with black vel? vet, are still used for. little fellows, before they don jackets and trowsers, but the bright scarlet and merinos with trimmings of white or narrow white and black iur are newer. A person deeply in debt, was walk? ing iu a melancholy way, when a friend asked him the cause of his" sad? ness. **I owe money and cannot pay it," said the man, in a tone of extreme de? jection. "Can't you leave all thc uneasiness to your creditors," replied the other. "Is it not enough that one should be sorry for what neither of you can help?" "TIME AND TIDE WAIT FOB NO MAN."-Cuffee says be "dunno 'bout dat-de fuss time he was tied he had to wait till a white man cum whip 'em." . A negro, in Virginia, who farmed "on his own hook" last year, netted thirty cents on his tobacco crop. He will doubtless live the balance of the year on his own hooking. A French clergyman declares that men who do not intend to marry have no right to go into society. Neither have some who do. Di?tre?* in London. A writer in the London Times thus describes tho deplorable poverty that exists among thc poor in the East of London: Sickening and heart-rending liavo been the scenes of distress I have witnessed during my four months' voluntary employment of doing what I could, in my humble degree, to as? sist in alleviating the misery of some of my fellow-creatures. Upwards of 500 families during that time have been brought under my notice, and I can unhesitatingly affirm such a season of distress and misery was rever before experienced in this locality. Ile adda that during all tho summer months, owing to the scarcity of work and the visitation of choler^., many families ?md Lo part j with clothing, bedding, atd every? thing upon which money tuil'.l Le obtained, so that when winter set in they had nothing left to dispose of, and the pawnbrokers, whoso shops are already crammed with goods, caro but to give the merest trillo for things which may never be redeemed. Now the distress wTas fearfully and palpably developed by the continuance of tlic cold weather. To particularize cases of distress, ho says, is almost beyond his power. It is widespread, and almost universal. He has seen three and four familes in ono house where, the fathersrhave had, perhaps, not more than a few weeks' work since the middle of last May, and twenty, thirty, and even as many as sixty duplicates had sometimes been shown him-thc silent, but mournful representatives of what was once a comfortable home. A gentleman residing in tho West India road, writing on Sunday last, states that he had visited many of the working people at their houses in that neighborhood, and that the distress among the mechanics and laborers is appalling. Many ol' them, he says, are quite disheartened, sit? ting within bare walls, with neither bed nor clothing, and with their children almost naked and famish? ing. Strong young men had burst into tears on seeing him enter, and pointed to their starving wives and children in silent despair. Some among them had been very improvi? dent; but others quite the reverse. He had that day relieved a young man Avith four children, who was au ironworker, and had been out of em? ployment for many months. He was a teetotaller, and had husbanded his saved earnings to the last, and now, with his family, had nothing to lie upon but the bare floor, and nothing to cover them but a single sheet. The writer adds that he could fill a volume with cases of like destitution, and that he fears the late conduct of the Shipwrights' Union at the Thames Ironworks will do much harm, and subject many innocent persons to suffering. The Hector of Bethnal-green (Mr. Hans..rd) writes that there is a great deal of distress there; the commercial panic, tho cholera, and the frost had severely affected the working classes; that the rates are now in the proportion of eight shillings in the pound a year; that thc workhouse is full, every spare place being occupied by a bed; and that on Tuesday last, eight hours were spent in inquiring into the out? door cases. The pittance of two shillings or three shillings a week, he says, might well be supplemented by private benevolence. The Secretary of the Dock and Wharf Laborer's Association, High street, Shadwell, writing on Saturday last, thinks he may safely say 20,000 of those classes are now quite out of employment and had not earned a shilling for the last two months; that probably 15, 000 of them are dragging ont a miserable existence by pledging little things and selling articles of fnr?i ; tare; und that the rest arc receiving scanty relief from the parishes of Whitechapel, Benthnal-green, Spita. fields, Shadwell, Poplar and Wap Piug-_ Two WAYS OF DOINO A TrirNu.-In tho train from HarrisburgJ?Vas a gen? tleman Jack Tar, in a go-a.shore out? fit, jolly, genteel and happy, with a decidedly pretty specimen of eighteen year old crinoline, to whom he had j been a week spliced, and was convey j ing Philadelphiaward. Opposite j Jack and his wife were a couple that I any one could see were on a honey? moon cruise, the bride all blushes, beauty and bashfulness, and the gal? lant bridegroom all devotion and en? dearment. At one of the way sta? tions the cars stopped, and the careful bridegroom thus addressed his timid bride: "My love, I am about to step out a few moments for refreshments. Do not be alarmed during my ab? sence. " Gentleman Jack took the cue, and patting Iiis wife on the shoulder, sung out as if he was hailing the inain-top-gallaut-yard in a gale of wind: "I say, wifey, I'm going ashore to wet my whistle; don't tumbi? over? board while I'm gone." "Charlie, my dear,'' s?iid a loving mother to a hopeful son, just budded into breeches, "Charlie, my dear, come here and get some candy." "I guess I won't mind it now, mother," replied Charlie, "I've got in some tobacco." Mr. Pullop, coming home late, "pretty full," finds the walk very slippery, and he exclaims, "V-v very singular; wu-whenever water freezes, it allus fr-freezes with the si-slippery side up! Singular!"

THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the groat American Alt6rative ami Blood run? ner, is tho most perfect vegetable com? pound of alteratives, totnes, diur?tica and diaphoretics; making it the most effective invigorating, rejuvenating and blood cleansiug cordial known to the world. .Io introducing thia new and extraordi? nary medicine to the public, observation 1 leads us to remark that too little attention I is paid to the "life of all flesh," the blood. j Many diseases, and, too, many complaints, which have their origin in a vitiated state I of the blood, are treated only as symptoms I ami results; whereas, if the remedy had j been applied to enrich the blood and ren? der it pure, both cause and effect would ; have beeb removed. The Quecu'a Delight is offered t<> the afflicted aa a sure remedy for those diseases arising from an impure condition of the blood, lt has a direct and specific action upon that fluid, ami consequently renders the blood pure. It I is said, on high authority, that "man no i sooner begins to live than he begins to die, and that, tho characteristics of the I living organism aro ceaseless change and ! ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore, j to every reflecting mind, that unless tho I blood is pure, in supplying th?' waste tis I sues with material, lt must he the cause of innumerable ills and constitutional disor? ders, such as Scrofula. Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, &c. Life and health is only to be maintained hy the circulation of pure arterial blood. We therefore advise every one whose blood is in thc b ast vitiated liv indulgence or excess, and whoso constitution is im? paired by disease and is Buffering 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 the Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Pains in the Bones, old fleers, Syphilis and Syphilid ic Sores, Indigestion, inflammation ot' the Bladder and Kidneys. Pains in tho Back, General Debility, and for all complaints arising from deficiency and poverty of blood, to use the Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution, suffer? ing from weakness and depression ol mind in consequence ol' those complaints which nature imposes at tin: period of change, have a pleasant and sure remedy in the Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex? ion gave carly promise of health and beauty, but too soon become blanched an?! pale by some hereditary taint of the blood, will have the rich boon restored bv using the Queen's Delight. Tin: unacclimated and persons traveling into warm countries will lind the Queen's Delight a great protection from all malari? ous affection and diseases which originate in a change of climate, diet and life. Tho extraordinary and unprecedented cures performed by tho Queen's Delight Compound is attracting tho attention of every one, not only at home, but abroad. Tho merits of this compound arc being felt and appreciated everywhere. Hear what they say of it in New York: "It is a remedy of much importance and value, exerting an inlluence over all the secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative, lt is extensively used in all the various forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its use is followed by the most successful results." Its properties as a remedy were first in? troduced to the notice of the profession by Dr. Tkos. Young Simons, of South Carolina, as early as 1828, as a valuable alterative re? medy in syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring use of mercury. Dr. Simons.' state? ments have been endorsed and cxtende.1 by Dr. A. Lope/, of Mobile and Dr. H. R. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports it: its favor, there aeolus no reason to doubt the efficacy of this medicine in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com plaints benefited by alterative medicines For sale wholesale and retail bv FISHER A HELNITSH, Dec 27 Druggists, Columbia.
