?.Any One Will Do."
A maulen once of certain age,
To catch a husband did engage:
But having passed tiie .prime of lifo
In striving to" become a wife,
Without success, she thought it time
To mend thc follies of her prime.
Departing from tho usual course
Of paint and stich like for resource,
With all her might, this ancient maid,
Beneath an oak tree knelt and prayed,
Unconscious tba! a grave old owl
Was perched abort -the mousing fowl
i:0h; give, a husband give.*' sh'-1 cried,
"While yet I may become, a bride;
Soon will my day of grace be o'er.
And then, like many maids before,
I'll die without an early love.
And none to meet me there above.
"Oh, "tis a fate too hard to bear,
Then answer this, my humble prayer,
And, oh, a husband give to me."
Just then the owl up in the tree
In deep bass tones cried, "Whoo-whoo
who!"
"Who, Lord? Ami dost thou ask mc who?
Why. any one, good Lord, will do."
[Original.
THE WOHK OE A NIGHT.*
BY. E. B. ClIEKHliOBorOH.
Great heavens! what a shriek! I
arose hastily, ami approached thc bed
ou which lay thc almost dying lady.
She had started up. Her eyes w ere
looking wildly around, and her palo
face gleamed ont like a wan spirit
face. I put aside tho heavy crimson
silk drapery that curtained tho bed,
and approaching her, I said:
*'Madame, arc you worse?"
"Oh! Catherine!" she faintly arti?
culated, "did you hear it?'' And she
clasped her thin hands together, with
an expression of terror and agony in
her face which I can never forget.
"Yes. madame, I thought it was
your voice, although it seemed to
come from a greater distance."
"Yes, yes," she said, hurriedly;
"oh! that voice! how it haunts 1110!"
As sho spoke, again there arose :t
loud, prolonged shriek. I never bul
once had heard anything like it. It
was a shriek of mingled pain and de?
spair, and, at the same time, there
blended with it a cry as if for mercy.
I can compare it to nothing but thc
first long wailing uttered by thc con?
demned sinner when thc dreadful fia:
goes forth, "Depart from me, yt
wicked, into everlasting fire."' I had
often, in no irreverent spirit, but witl
an awful awe, thought of che fearful
ness of those wailings which will a
the final judgment pierce the court
of Heaven, and reach thc confines r
hell, as thc gates of mercy close for
ever upon tho sinner doomed to pu
nishment that is eternal.
As that shriek arose, madame thre\
: ir arms around my neck ; large drop
of agony stood on her forehead; sh
gasped out faintly: "No more! Ni
more! Oh! have I not been suflj
ciently punished, oh! my God?" am
ske moaned heavily. H>;r clasp groi
more rigid; with difficulty I loosed il
as I laid her gently down on tho pi]
low. She had ceased to breathe
Poor Madame de Foe! for her tili
life, with all its sorrows and its joy;
was over forever. I stood and looke
at the pale face with an awe whic
had never before affected me whe
gazing upon the dead. She nevi
could have been beautiful, even i
her young days; she was now abot
forty, yet she was the most fascina
ing woman I have ever met. SI;
taught me this lesson: that, withoi
possessing one ray of that light calk
beauty, a woman can be both attrac
ive and fascinating. I believe th;
Charlotte Bronte was almost the fir
writer to make her heroine plain, ai
jet, even with her plainness, she wc
a love as constant as it was deep. ]
looking at Madame de Foe's pictui
you would exclaim, "What a pla
woman!" but when you knew t'.
original, you never uttered such
remark, for the fascination of mann
and of intellect utterly destroyed h
plainness, and you felt in your inmc
soul that she was beautiful. She v>
one ol' the few women who nc\
wearied you with gossip or mere pi
sonal details. Her conversation M
"everything by lits," according to}
mood; sometimes philosophical, oft
poetical, frequently religious, a
always original. But there wai
veiled sadness, so to speak, about h
the source of which you in v:
attempted to reach. She was exce<
ingly reticent about herself, and ne1
expatiated upon her own feelings
actions. There was a naturaln
about her as rare as it.was charmii
and I never heard her utter a renn
that was not sensible and appropria

were domiciled in the same hotel, 1
though I am naturally shy of 1
people, I found myself at once
trac ted to the fascinating strain
We soon became friends, and dur
my stay in Genoa I found my gr<
est pleasure in her society.
Once, when standing together
the Cathedral of Sun Lorenzc
heard that same awful shriek,
were examining the Emerald Vi
said to have been presented to S
mon by the Queen of Sheba. As
*The leading idea of this story ma
found in "Footfalls on tho Bouridarii
Another World." The voice was there
to be actual; the more reasonable HU
sition i*, that it wa? the voice of
science.
took tho "Sacre Catino" in our bands,
HU unearthly shriek rung through the
church. In haste I handed it buck to
the priest, who was looking around
him with consternation and surprise
depicted on his face.
"Let us go," said "Madame de Foo,
in low tones.
I turned to look at her-she was
deadly pale.
"Did you hear that awful shriek?"
I asked, when we found ourselves in
the street.
She said, in agitated tones, "Yes.
How dreadful!"
"What could it have been?" 1 said,
w onderingly.
She sighed deeply, and puttinglier
arm ^ichin rrdne, hastened her steps.
Once after JL alluded to it. She
said, solemnly, "-Never speak of it,
Catherine; it is too dreadful," and
she shuddered.
"Dut what can it bc?" I persisted;
"it is not human-it is unearthly.
Didi believe that tba spirit of tho
dead could visit eartli, I might think,
madame, that you and I had heard
the voice of some poor, grieving
spirit."
At these words, her face assumed a
deadly paleness, and her lips trem?
bled. Seeing that I noticed her agi?
tation, she immediately threw it off,
saying, "Como, Catherine, let mc
dispel your gloomy thoughts with
music." And scating herself at thc
piano, she ran her fingers over thc
keys, eliciting a gush of melody that
sounded like the rippling of silvery
streams.
Before wo parted, I. promised tc
visit her in her home. Several
months elapsed before I could fulfil
my promise, and her letters were frc
quent and urgent.
One night, I dreamed that sin
stood beside me, looking wretchedly
wan. She said, "I have come to bic
you good-bye." I answered, "Du
you will return again?" "No." sin
said, emphatically, "never;" and van
isbed immediately through tho opet
door. I was going to say that I wa:
no believer in dreams; but how can
declare that, when I remember hov
signally, in my own caso, many of nr
night visions have Leen realized
God has taught, and may he no
teach again, by dreams? Job says
"lu a dream, in a vision of the night
?when deep sleep falleth upon men : ii
slumberings upon the bed, then Go<
openeth the ears of men and sealetl
their instruction."
So deeply was I impressed by tiri
dream, that the next day I math- pr<
parafions for my departure, and soo
found myself in the luxurious bn
somewhat gloomy chateau of Madam
de Foe. I met her ill; she had jus
ruptured a blood vessel, and she ex
claimed, as I entered:
"I knew that you would come,
dreamed, a few nights since, that yo
stood beside my bed, and you sai<
'I have come to stay with you ttnt
you leave me foerver. ' It was o
Thursday night I saw you, in ti
very dress you nov/ wear, only, ii
stead of that linen collar, you had c
one of point lace."
I threw off my saccpie. She smile*
"l"es, there's the very collar."
How strange! It was on Thursdi
I had my vision.
j Madame grew gradually wors
some days she was strong enough
be lifted out of bcd and placed iu
chair beside the window. Then si
would lie long, weary days, as if the
was no life in her. She scarce
moved, scarcely breathed. For thr
months, I kept my weary vigils h
side her, until death terminated tl
scene.
She had bequeathed me her des
with ibo contents; and on the nig
she died, as I sat beside- her lifeh
remains, the old nurse having fall
asleep in her chair, I drew madam
last gift to mc, and taking the kc
which she had given me before 1
death, I opened the desk. One

i and exquisite workmanship, th

letters, there dropped from it a fa<

HEINTTSK'S CELEBRATED
GER?I.W HORSE POWDER
For nj! Diseases lu milich a Horse is LiaMe,
11HE various diseases to which that no?
ble and useful animal, thc horse, is
subject, and the little knowledge that is
known of them by farriers ?rad ignorant
ostlers, have occasioned many remedies to
bo offered to the public under different
forms, with high encomiums, and sanc?
tioned by dignified names. Some of these
are injurious; others, at best, of little use,
and many entirely worthless, and do not
meet the want. A gond medicine, free
from objections of this kind, has long been
desired by many gentlemen who have va?
luable horses. We therefore offer the only
good medicine-thc true "G ER MAN
HORSE POWDER," which has proved so
efficacious in all thc diseases, lt is pre?
pared from the original recipe of Dr. Hei
nitsh, of Germany. Its extra' rdinaryvir?
tues are attested to by thousands, and for
fifty years has stood, and still stands, first
in the estimation of all experienced farm?
ers and agriculturists as the best medicine
for thc horse. It is re-commended for
horses foundered by eating lo excess or
drinking cold water when heated, to such
as have symptoms of glanders or are ex?
posed to the infection by hi ing with other
horses, for indigestion, distemper, hide?
bound, drowsiness, loss of appetite, inward
sprains, debility, wasting of flesh, sore
eyes, swelled legs, grease-, mange, surfeit,
old coughs, for exhaustion from work. It
carries off all foul humors, purifies and
cools the blood, and prevents horses be?
coming' stitt'and foundered, lt is a stimu?
lus for weak stomachs, and renders thc
limbs and skin soft and line, giving a
smooth coat to the hair. Ask for "Hei
nitsh's German Horse Powder." For sale

The Great American Blood Purifier,
ri
DELIGHT !
IMlE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the great
American Alterative and Blood Puri
lier, is the most perfect vegetable com?
pound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and
diaphoretics; making it the most effective
invigorating, rejuvenating and blood
cleansing cordial known to the world.
In introducing this new and extraordi?
nary medicine to the public, observation
leads us to remark that too little attention
is paid to the "life of all lu sh," the blood.
Many diseases, and. too, 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 the blood and ren?
der it pure, both cause and effect would
have been removed. The Queen's Delight
is offered to the afflicted as a sure remedy
for those diseases arising from au impure
condition of thc blood, lt has a direct
and specific action upen 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 tho
living organism arc ceaseless change and
ceaseless waste.'" lt is obvious, therefore,
to every reflecting mind, that unle ss the
blood is pure, in supplying the waste tis?
sues with material, it must be the cause of
innumerable ills and 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 ono whose
blood is in the b ast vitiated by indulgence
or excess, ami whose constitution is im?
paired by disease and is suffering aT/<c
Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Consuw?^
tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles,
Roils, Itching Humor of the Skin, Erysi?
pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness of
tiie Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Rains in thc

General Debility, and for all complaints
arising from deficiency and poverty ?d'
blood, to use the Queen's Delight.
Females of delicate constitution, suffer?
ing from weakness and depression oi mind
in consequence of those complaints which
nature imposes at the period of change,
have a pleasant and sure remedy in the
Queen's Delight.
Children \ nose fair and ruddy complex?
ion gave i arly promise of health and
beauty, but too soon become blanched and
pale by some hereditary taint of the blood,
will have tho rich boon restored by using
the Queen's Delight.
The unacclimated und 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.
The extraordinary and unprecedented
cures performed by the Queen's Delight
Compound is attracting tho attention of
1 every one. not only at home, but abroad,
