John Brougham's "Tread Light, for tny .heart is. under your feat, love,'*, is more than, equaled by'a lover, who taps goes skating on his lady s heart: TOT hoart is Uko a frozen lako, ; On whose cold brink I stand; * Oh, bncklo-on my spirit's skate, And take mo by tho hand; And load, thou loving saint, the way, To whore the ice is thin, ' ' That it may break betaoatb* my feet, And let a lovor in. A native of the Green Isle of Erin called at a chemist's shop with a pre? scription, the preparation of which he watched with considerable curiosity.

A look of bewilderment changed to one of grave concern, aa the Irish? man made the inquiry. "And what is the price?" ' 'Sixpence, '1 vas the reply. "Be-jabera," said Pat, much re? lieved, "I thought two such names as that would cost mo at least. five shillings." Washing Bone Easy ! THE UNIVERSAL CLOTHES WASHER AND RINSER!

In introducing .this now und extraordi? nary medicino to tho public, observation leads ns to remark that too little attention is paid to tho ''lifo of all flesh," tho blood. Many diseases, and, too, many complaints, which haye their origin in a vitiated state of tho blood, aro treated only as symptoms anft rcsnlfs: whereas, if tho remedv had been applied to enrich tho blood and ren? der it pure, both causo .and effect would have been removed. The Queen's Delight ' is offered tojtho afflicted as a sure remedy for thoso diseases arising from an impure condition1 of tho blood. It has a direct and specific action upon that fluid, and consequently renders tho blood pure. It is aajd, on high authority, that ''mau no sooner begins to live than ho begins to die, and that tho characteristics of tho liviug organism aro ceaseless chango and ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless' tko j blood ls pure, In supplying the wasto tis I sues With Ynateriai, it lhust bo tho causo of innumerable ills and constitutional disor? ders, such as (Scrofula, Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, ?fcc. Lifo and health is only I to be maintained by the circulation of puru ! arterial blood. We" therefore advise every ono whose blood is in tb? least vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whoso constitution ia im? paired by disease and is suffering from Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Boils.

Females of delicate constitution, suffer? ing from weakness and depression of mind ju consequence of thoso complaints which nature imposes at tho poriod of chango, have a -pleasant and snro remedy in tin Queen's Delight. , . Children whoso fair and ruddy complex? ion gave early promise of health and beauty, but too socm become blanched and pale by some hereditary taint of tho blood, will have the rich boon restored by using tho Queen's Delight. Tho unacclimatcd and persons traveling into wann countries wiU find the Queen's Delight a great protection from all malari? ous affection ana diseases which originate in a chango of climate, diet and lifo. Tho extraordinary and unprecedented cures porformed by tho Queen's Dolight Compound is attracting tho attention of every one, not only at home, but abroad. Tho merits of this compound aro 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 influence ovor all thc secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative. It is ext ensively used in all the various forms ol primary and secondary syphilitic a fleet ions: also, in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which its usn 4s followed by tho most successful results." . Its properties as a remedy were first in? troduced tb'the notico of the profession by Dr. Thou. 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 extended by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobilo, and Dr. H. R*. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt tho efficacy of this medicino in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com? plaints benefited by alterativo medicine* For salo wholesale and retail by .
