IDLEWILD.-Mr. N. P. Willis' fam? ous country scat on the Hudson came about in this way: It was a portion of thc farm of Nathaniel Scuds, a lovely, kindly, gentle old mau, whose persuasive .words, from the high seat of the Quaker meeting, have won many hearts to the peaceful faith he had espoused. He decided to sell the tract to Willis, naming some very moderate sum of money as its price, "because, Nathaniel, it is only an idic wild." "I will take it." said Willis, "and it shall be called Tdle Wild." A gentleman ordered a rocking chair, which wasreceived by his wife, a lady precise in her speech. Upon making a trial of the chair, the gentle? man expressed his great satisfaction with it, when his wife remarked: "Thc man said its equilibrium was very accurately adjusted. " "Did he really say that-those very words?" inquired the husband. "Why, no, not exactly," replied the lady; "but he said it joggled just right!" Paints, Oils, Glass, Varnishes, &c. SIX THOUSAND lbs.

I PROSPECTUS " j Ol' rr 11E I 5. VI* TIS T . ITri'l PROPOSE to publish a WEEKLY 1 Vt PAPER, devoted to the diffusion ol i the principles ot religion and the interests of tho Baptiat denomination. We have been moved ro this undertaking by the j 1 solicitations of brethren in varient por- ? 1 tiens of this State, as well as of other j i States, among the readers of the late j Confederate Baptist, and by our own cou- j viction that a paper of a high character ! would contribute largely to the intellectual improvement, the religious progress and the general welfare of the churches. Thc field is large, affording ample room for all sincere and zealous laborers. The Baptist will be printed on a sheet about twenty-two by thirty-two inches, and will contain twenty-four broad columns, mostly in Long Primer type, clear and legible, so that it may be read with com? fort, even by the aged. Its entire mecha? nical execution will be of the highest order. Our columns will be enriched by corres- I pondence and contributions from the j other Southern States, and, occasionally, from Europe, and our missionary stations | abroad. The entertainment and instruc? tion of the young-especially tho child? ren-will not be forgotten; and our vene blo friend, "Uncle Fabian," so well and favorably known to the readers of the Confederate Baptist, will resume his labors in their behalf. In short, we possess all the facilities requisite to produce a paper of the lirst rank. As such, we offer it to our brethren, and solicit their generous co-operation. The, Uti pt ist will bc issued as soon as a sufficient numb, i ul' subscribers have bee-u scoured. TfcRMS ?:1 a year, payable on the recep? tion of the first number.

THE QUEEN'S BUT! rrUTE QUFEN'S DELIGHT, thc great | X American Alterative and Blood Turi-I tier, is the most perfect vegetable com? pound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and j diaphoretics; making it thc most c ft'eetive | invigorating, rejuvenating an I blood- i cleansing cordial known to the world. In introducing this new and extraordi? nary medicine tn tho public, observation leads us to remark that too little attention j is paid to the "life ol' all flesh," the blood, j Hauy diseas, s, and. to... many complaints, which have their origin in a vitiated state | of the blood, are treated only as symptoms ? and results; whereas, if the remedy had been applied to enrich thc blood and ren? der it pure, both cause and effect would have been removed. Thc Queen's Delight ! is ottered to th?' afflicted as a sure remedy j for those disease., arising from an impure i condition of the blood, lt has a direct j and specific action upon that fluid, and consequently renders the blood pure, lt is said, on high authority, that "man no sooner begins to live than he begins to die, and that the characteristics of thc living organism are ceaseless change and i ceaseless waste." lt is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless the blood is pure, in supplying tho waste tis- I sues with material, it must bo the cause of innumerable ills and eonstitmion.il disor? ders, such as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders. Consumption, Inflamma? tions, F'evers, ?tc bit'.; and health is only to bc maintained by thc circulation of pure ? arterial blood. Wc therefore advise every ons' v.hos. blood is in the least vitiated by Indulg? nco or excess, ami whose constitution is im? paired by disease and is suffering from llhctunatisra, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Boils, beliing Humor bf the Skin, Erysi? pelas, Skin Diseases. Tetter, Roughness of | thc Skin. Pimples, Blotches, Pams in the ; Boms, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilid ie Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of the j Bladder ami Kidneys. Pains in the Back, I General Debility, ami fur all complaints | arising from deficiency and poverty of blood, to usu lin' Queen's Delight. Fetnah s of delicate constitution, suffer- j ing from weakness and depression ol mind in conse<pienee of tho o complaints which j nature imposes at the period of change, 1 have a pleasant and sure remedy in the j Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex- j ion gave early promise of health ami ] beaut y, btu too soon become blanched and pale by some hereditary taint of the blood, | will have tie- rich boon restored by using the Queen's Delight. The unacclimated and persons traveling j into warm countries v iii lind the Queen's Delight a great protection from all nialari UlS affect ion and diseases which originate ; in a change of climate, diet ami life. The 'extraordinary and unprecedented | .ures performed by the Queen's Delight i ] Compound is attracting the attention of ? ?very one. not Only at nome, but abroad, j rho merits of this compound arc being felt and appreciated everywhere. Hear j . what they say ol' it in New Vork: "lt is a j ? remedy of much importance and value, ! ?xertiug an influence over all the secrc- I tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative, lt is extensively used in I ? ;* 11 the various forms of primary and i secondary syphilitic affections; also, in . scrofulous, le patic and cutaneous diseases, I in which ils use is; followed by the most successful results."' Its properties as a remedy wcroflrst in- i traduced to the notice of the profession by | 1 >r. Tkos. Young Simons, of Soui'n Carolina, I is early as 1S2S. as it valuable alterativere- ' ; medy in syphilitic affections, and others re- I puring use of mercury. Dr. Simons' state- ! me nts have been endorsed ami extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. B. j Frost, of Chariest-.:!. From the reports in ? ils favor, there seems no reason to doubt i tho efficacy of this medicine in Secondary Syphilis. Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, j Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com- j l>ia'uts benefited by alterative medicines. For sale wholesale and retail by FISHER A H?IN?TSH, Dec 27 Druggists, Columbia.
