If gen. sp us. Oh, tho chcerfoi budding time, . Whoa thora hodges turn to green, When now loares of elm and limo Cleave and shod tboir winter ac-cen; Tonder lambs aro born and "baa," North wind finds no snow to bring, Vigorous nature laughs "ha, ha," In tho miracle of spring. Ob, the gbrgoous blossom days, When broad flag-flowers drink and blow, In and out in summer blaze # Dragon-flies flash to and fro; Ashen branohes hang out keys, Oaks put forth the rosy shoot, Wandorinfr herds wax Block at caso, Lovely blossoms end in fruit. Oh, tho shouting harvest weeks, Mothor oarth grows fat with shoavoB, Thrifty gleaner Ands who seeks; Russet golden pomp of loaves Crowns the woods, to fall at length; * Bracing winds aro felt to stir, Ocean gotbers up hor strength. Beasts renoy tboir dwindled fur. Oh, tho starving winter lapso, Ice-bouud, hunger-pinched and dim; Dormant roots recall their saps, Empty nests show black and grim, Short-lived ennshino givos no hoat, Undue buds are nipped by frost, > Snow sets forth a winuing-sheot, And all bopo of lifo seems lost. A good joke is told on ono of our clever saloon-keepers, whioh ia too full of genuine humor, "under press? ing circumstances, "to be lost. " A short time ago, a representativo of the Green Isle stepped into the saloon of the person above alluded to, and with a ' countenance full of inquiry, said: "An' have you got any good rye .whiskey?" "Yes, very good; the best in towD," said the saloon man. "An* have you got any half-pint bottlos, my good man?" "Yes," was the reply. . "An* will you please fill ono with your beat rye whiskey for mo?" "Of course," said tho obliging dealer; and after reaching for the re? quired flask, and spending a full half hour cleaning it, repaired to the cellar, drow half a pint of his Bourbon, and presented it to tho gentleman in waiting. Pat took tho bottle, raised it to his lips, swallowed nt laast half of its contents, and then, after making the appropriate face over it, said, in a very confidential tone: "Will you please to sit this to ono sido till I call for it?" The saloon-keeper, smelling a large-sized rat, carefully stowed away tho said half-filled bottle. Tho fellow never called for it, but took this novel way of obtaining a drink. WESTERN ELOQUENCE.-"But, os I said, we have proven to you where the town lino is. Yes, gentlemen of the jury, there it is, and there will it remain forever; and all tho. inge? nuity of my learned brother oan never efface it-can never wash it out. No, gentlemen, ho may plant ono .foot on the outermost ring of the planet Saturn, and plant tho other on Arcturus, and seize the Pleiades by the' hair and wring thom dry, but he cannot wash out that town Uno-never, never!" A story is told of a duchess in Paris, whose infant had been sent to the country to nurse, and who was brought back when four years old. Soon after his return, tho duchess, walking out with tho boy, was amazed to hear him exclaim: "There, mamma, is a good house, " and running from her into the court yard, he took off his cap and began to sing. Tho little duke had been trained by his nurse to beg as a ballad-singer. A school-master tells the following "good ono:" I was teaching in a quiet country village. Tho second morning of my session, I had time to survey my surroundings, and among tho scanty furniture I espied a three legged stool. "Is this tho dunce block?" I asked a little girl of five. The dark eyes sparkled, the curls nodded assent, and the lips rippled out, "I guess so-tho teacher always sits on it." A POSTSCIITPT.-"I love to look upon a young man. There is a bid? don potency concealed within his breast which charms and pains me." Thc daughter of a clergyman hap? pening to find the above sentence, at the close of her father's manuscript as ho had left it in his study, sat down and added: "Them's my sentiments exactly, papa, excepting the 'pains.' " "Who made the world?" asked a teacher of a little boy who had not been long in school. Tho boy shook his head and said nothing. Tho teacher threatened to whip him unless he answered. The boy, feeling com? pelled to a confession of some sort, broke forth, "Well, master, I made it, but I'll never do it again." A priest was called upon to pray over tho barron fields of bis parish? ioners. He passed from one enclos? ure to another, and pronounced his benediction, until ho come to a most unpromising case. Ho surveyed tho sterile acres in despair. "Ah!" said he, "brethren, no usc to pray here this needs manure." "Seo Naples, and then die," said somebody; but a bachelor friend reminds us that China is tho place for a family man to die in, for in that country thc physician who kills you has to support your family. To prevent your hair from coming ont-never let your wife catch you kissing the servant girl. FOR CONSUMPTIVES.-Tho Phihv, dolphin Ledger asks, if it occurred to tho ooupany 'which proposes to run regul?r steamers np tue Amazon from Para, for a distance of 2,500 miles from its mouth, that it will be able to transport passengers direct into the inland: valley of Janja, where the consumptive xviii obtain restora? tion of health and a care of a too generally inca rabio disease? The voyage, though long, may bo made almost without changing vessels, and will be lound neither tedious nor debilitating. It will introduce travelers into some of the most mag? nificent scenery in thc world. It has been known to tho natives, from time immemorial, that a removal of consumptive patients, even in the stage of well-marked ulceration and cavities in tho lungs, to the Valley of Jauja, at a height of 10,000 feet above tho sea, was followed by an almost invariable susponsio'n of the disenso. This fact is corroborated by tho experience of physicians of Peru at tho present time. From tho statistics of Limn, published irr* 1858, it appears that nearly eighty per cent, of the cases of consump? tion sent to tho Jauja Valley aro cured. TEXAS.-People who are deter? mined to emigrate, and who haven't ombarked for Honduras, would do well perhaps to turn their ardent eyes in tho direction of Texas. The extract below, is from a Houston let? ter, of a recent dato: '.Texas has been favored with the most pleasant, favorable and delight? ful winter known for many years. We enter on the spring season buoy? ant with hope, and (as compared with our sister Southern States) with exceeding flattering prospects. Dur? ing the last three months a largo immigration has found its wray into our country, and tho stream seems unabated. Our farmers are energet? ically preparing for a largo crop. Industry, energy and public spirit, seem rife in the community. Rail? roads aro being pushed forward in various directions. Schools aro flou? rishing. Churches aro well sustained. Politics are generally avoided, and progress-physical, mental and rnornl -seems to bo the order of tho day." A blundering or wilful compositor and proof-reader on tho Davenport (Towa) Gazelle recently caused that journal to appear with tho following despatch: "Tho Committee of Ways and Means have decided to put Chuso and Butler on tho free list." It should have read "cheese and but? ter." George ITT, speaking to tho Arch? bishop Sutton of his largo family, used the expression, "I believe your Grace has better than a dozen?" "No, sire," replied the Archbishop, "only eleven." "Well," replied tho King, ' "is not that better than a 1 dozen?" JUST So.-Somebody says man is like a snow-ball. Leave him lying in idleness against tho sunny faco of prosperity, and all the good that is in him melts like fresh butter in tho dog" days; but kick him round, and ho gathers strength at every revolu? tion. Tho Chief of the Capitol Police at Washington recently informed his subordinates that they would have to tako an ice-clad as well as au iron-clad oath. This was in reference to gua? rantees for their sobriety as well as for their loyalty. A preacher, who had been a print? er, said in ono of his. sermons that youth was Uko a comma, manhood like a semi-colon, old agc like a colon, to which death puts a period. A gentleman having knocked an umbrella from the hands of a fellow not very well versed in etiquette, asked to be excused, whereupon the greeny replied, "You are welcome!" A woman said in a Police Court, tho other day, that beloro marriage her husband pretended to bo much struck with her, but now she was every day struck by him. "Miss, what have you done to be ashamed of that you blush so?" "Sir, what have the roses, and the strawberries, and the peaches done, that they blush so?" ' Bennett calls Barnum a humbug. The precedent is laid down in the celebrated case of Pott vs. Kettle, cited iu the Cumie Jilackslone. Speaking of Georgo III, Erskine remarked that what we call firmness in a king, we call obstinacy in a don? key. At a recent public meeting in Man? chester, |N. H.?] it was resolved that "all persons in town owning dogs shall bo muzzled." TvPOGRATHIOAIi.-A VOUrig hld) told n typo friend that he might print a kiss on her cheek, but ho musn't publish it. "That motion is out of order," said the chairman of a meeting, when a rowdy raised his nrm t-> throw an egg. A country paper SM n mun "who died without !.. aid ol a phy? sician." Such instances aro very rare. Why is a hotel ghost like a Stato constable? Because it is an inn spectre. Almost ever)' young lady is public spirited enough to have her father's houso used as a court-house. The young lady that kept her M ord has found it very useful. The worst organ grinder-a hollow tooth that plays tho deuce. The Raleigh (N-C.) Sentinel say? that the wheal crop iu that State is promising. The indications are un? favorable for ft .good fruit Crop. In m?ny sections, however, peaches and early fruits are in bloom, and vegeta? tion generally is making its appear? ance. A Mrs. Sarah Leo Porter, in an action against the city of Dubuque, Iowa, recently obtained a verdict, making the Mayor add Council per? sonally responsible for tho claim of over $9,000, because they foiled to incorporate it in tho annual tax levy. There are so many office-seekers now in Washington, of both sexes, in destitute circumstances, and with no hope of obtaining employment, and quite a number of them, it is said, are soliciting private charity to ena? ble them to return to their homes. John B. Gough hus received an offer from England of Si,500, gold, for one lecture a week in London, tho courso to bo kept up for a year. That would make him 802,100.

THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT,! thc great American Alterativo and Blood Puri? fier, is tho most perfect vegetable com Sound of altorat i ven, tonics, diuretics and iaphorotics; making it tho most effective invigorating, rejuvenating and blood cleansing cordial known to tho world. In introducing;, this n*w, and extraordi? nary medicine to tho public, observation leads ns to remark that too little attcntiou is paid to tho "Ufo of all fleBh," the blood. Many diseases, arid, too, many complaints, which have their origin tu a vitiated stat. of thc blood, arp treated only as symptoms and resulte: whereas, if tho remedy had been applied to enrich tho blood.and ren? der it pure, both causo and effect would have been removed. Thc Queen's Delight is offer ed to tho afflicted as a sure romedy for those'diseases arising from an impuro condition of thc blood. It has a direct and specific action upon that thud, and consequently renders thc blood parc. It is said, on high authority, that ''man no sooner begins to live than ho begins to die, and that tho characteristics of tho living organism aro ceaseless chango and ceaseless wasto." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless thc 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 Disprdsr?, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, Ac. Lifo and health is only to bo maintained by tho circulation of puro arterial blood. Wo therefore advise every one whoso blood is in thc least vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whoso constitution is im? paired by discaso and is Buffering from Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Boils, Itching Humor of tho Skin, Erysi? pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness of tho Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Pains in tho Bones, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictic Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of thc Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in tho Back, Qenoral Debility, and for all complaints arising from deficiency and povorty Of blood, to uso tho Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution-, suffer? ing from weakness and depression of mind in consequence of tlioso complaint? which naturo imposes at tho poriod of chango, have a pleasant and sure remedy in tue Queen's Delight. Children whoso fair and ruddy complex? ion gavo carly promise of health and beauty, but too" soon b. como blanched and palo by some hereditary taint of tho blood, will havo tho rich booii restored by using tho Queen's Delight. Tho uuacclimatcd and persons traveling into warm countries will lind tho Queen's Delight a great protection from all malari? ous affection ana diseases which originate in a chango of climate, diet and life. Tho extraordinary and unprecedented cures performed by tho Quoou's Dolight Compound is attracting tho attention ol every ono, not only at homo, but abroad. Tho" merits of this compound aro being felt and appreciated everywhere. Hoar what they say of it in New York: "It ia a remedy ?f much importance and value, exerting an inllucnco over all tho secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative. It is extensively used in aU tho various forma of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its uso is followed by tho most successful results." Its properties as a remedy were first in? troduced to tho notice of tho profession by Dr. Tkos. Young Simons, of South Carolina, aa early as 1828, as a valuable alterative re? medy in syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring uso of mercury. Dr. Simons' state? ments have been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobilo, and Dr. H. R Frost , of Charleston. From thc reporta ii its favor, there seem ; uo reason to doubl tho efficacy of this medicina in Secondary Syphilis; Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com plaints benefited by alterativo medicines For sale wholesalo and retail bv FISHER A HEINITSH, Dec 27_DniggistH.^Columbia.
