Ah! Uko a gay craft, tboy set sail,
With Hope, sunny Hopo, at the prow;
But their sad fate wo'll over bowan
'Tis all wo can do for them now.
And tbeir country can give them but tears
As low in tho dust she doth bow;
Yes, for all that they suffor'd for her,
'Tis all sho can do for them now.
Yet, tboBO tear's shall life's verdure impar
To their memory, that ny'or ehall allow
To fade or to dio in her heart

THE DOU?uVo&BERY*
Theare! tho closo of the last ceu
tury, Northumberland and tho Scot
tish border were terribly infested by
those-to the bocolic mind-particu?
larly obnoxious specimens of the ge
nus thief, kuown as "Hovers" o:
"litters" of catt lo.
Almost all tho rascals who followed
this unlucrutive profession trustee
chiefly to mero brute for.ee to carr
out successfully thoir uefnriou
schemes. There was, however, on
exception to thia rule to be found ii
tho .person of a .celebrated free
hooter, known as "Dickey of Kings
wood. ' ' This worthy openly expresse?
his disapprobation of his rivals' vu!
gar modo of following their profes
sion, and repeatedly boasted that h
could achiove twice as much by hi
cunning as they could by thoir brut
force. Nor was this assertion of hi
moro empty boasting-far from it.
In a few years' timo, Dickey's nam
became the terror of. the countr
side No farmer felt secure, when h
retired at night, that his cattle migli
havo vanished ere morning. So oh
verly, moreover, wero all Dickey
enterprises conducted, that no ma
could ever succeed in making pei
sonni acquaintance with him. B
oponly set justibe at defiance, an
laughed at tho futile efforts of tl
law to punish him. Perhaps, hov
ever, tho best way to illustrate th
adroitness and good luck which chi
racterized all Dickey's proceeding
will be for me to relate tho story <
one of his exploits.
It appears, then, that during tl:
course of his peregrinations throug
Northumberland, ono fine aftornooi
Dickey's eyes wore gladdened by tl
Bight of a pair of fino oxen, whic
were quietly grazing in a field nei
Denton Burn, a village distant' thrc
miles from Newcastle.
Determined to possess them, Dicki
hung about the place till nightfn
watched where tho animals yte
driven to, and his usual good fortui
assisted him-speedily secured h
prize. He also contrived, by tho e
ercise of his accustomed cunning,
leave such traces behind him as mai
tho owner of tho oxen certain th
the free-bootor had made off towa
the Tweed. Thither he according
proceeded in hot haste. In the int
rim, however, Dickey had lost no tit
in "making tracks" toward the "Wc
country, and so expeditious were 1
movements, that, in a short time, '.
reached Ltaneroost, in Cumberian
Here he fell in with an old farmer, <
horseback, who, being delighted wi
tho appearance of the oxen, fort
with purchased them.
Dickey was, of course, rejoiced
getting'rid so pleasantly of a char
which could not fail to bo trouh
some-nay, possibly, dangerous
him longer to retain. The form*
moreover, was mounted on a splend
mare, which Dickey, withhispeculi
ideas on the subject of meian a
feum, at once resolved, by foul mea
or fair, to secure. He, thcrefoi
willingly accepted tho farmer's li?
pitable invitation to accompany h
to his house, in order that they mig
"crack" a bottle of wine in honor
their bargain. Presently, Diokey :
quired of the farmer if he would I
his mare?
"Sell my mare!" exclaimed . 1
host," all aghast at the propositit
"Sell my mare! No; there's not 1
equal in the whole North conntr
"I do not doubt it, Mr. Musgrav
responded Dickey, "and from whn
saw of her paces this morping, ]
quito of your opinion, that tho
not her equal within a hundred mi
of us; but," added tho obsequh
Dick, "since you will not soil her
can only wish you long lifo and gi
health to enjoy her."
The sentiment was, of course, d
honored in a bumper.
"I hope, Mr. Musgrave," next
served Dickey, "you keep a ol
look-out after your stablo door,
cause now, when that confount
rascal, Dickey of Kingsbury, is
lowed to bo at liberty, a man can
bo sure thnt any fine morning he II
not find his stablo empty."
"Stable! hal ha!" chuckled
farmer. "I think," lie continu
"that Dickey of Kingsbury wo
find it rather difficult to steal my rn
out of her stable."
"Indeed! Where may her st:i
be situated?" inquired Dickey.
"Her stable! dod bless you, .si
answered Mr. Musgrave, "her stn
is in my bed-room. I'm a bache
and so every night I fasten her to
bed post, I have had a mangel?
up for her in my room, nnd no mi
is so pleasant to mo ns to hear
grinding her corn all night by
bed-side."
Dickey wns astonished-and }
ho might be-at such unheard of j
cautions; but, disguising his nsf
ishment, he contented himself
.I simply- cxpiM*Uuj lu tub" TbTnTeTTn*
hearty approval of thor rn?atts d*
adopted to secure thc *e?fely *of ?*?
favorite.
"I suppose yon have a very good
lock ouV>??ej^<W|?loorV 1>W
Dickey^ next l'f<?r."ft ?A.
"Como wituV?#^8howXrW
replied tho uusii^c6?%i:\imer5i
This was, ""br course, just what
Dickey wanted. Ho examined tho
lock carefully, and soon satisfied
himself that he could pick \t witboub
difficulty. Ho, however, declared to
Mr. Musgrave thab'it iras "just the
right-kind ol ft lock; i* couldn't havts
been tetter; in fact, itwas-quite non
pickable."
Again the loving cup passed round,
nud after draining a bumper to their
"next merry meeting," Dickey' de?
parted.
Tho old farmer, after his guest*
leave-taking had been . completed,
carefully went the rounds of hil
house, locking doors and 1 cloping
windows with all duo precaution.
Ho then, ai jisual, tied tho marof ti
her accustomed post, retired to bed
and was soon hilled to.sleep by tin
sound of his favorite grinding corn.
?So the night wqio, away. Pr?tent
ly, ns the first gray streaks of daj
begau to appear, Mr. Musgrav*
awoke, and feeling very cold, iookci
around to ascertain tho cause. T<
his astonishment," ho found that al
tho coverlets had been spread ou
upon the floor. For what parp?se
thought Mr. Musgrave. Was ho th
victim of somo terrible nightmare, o
was he really awake? Mechanically
his eyes glanced to tho spot wher
his maro should have boen. She wa
not there. Sho was goue.-stolen
During the night, some daring thio
had broken into tho farm-house, ha
picked tho lock on tho door of th
bed-room, lind spread tho blauket
over tho floor, so that thc lioofs c
tho maro should make no noise, au
had thus triumphantly made ofF wit
his prize.
Of course, Mr. Musgrave rouse
his household, and commenced
vigorous search after tho thief. ]
was useless. Tho destroyer left u
traces behind him, aud so Mr. Mai
gravo was obliged to return hoir
disconsolate, and to co?tent himse
with venting curses-neithor few nc
far between-upon the horse thief.
lu tho meantime, our friend Dickt
-for his was tho deed-was comfor
ably mounted upou Mr. Musgrave
favorito mare, aud was every mom ci
increasing tho distance between ?
outraged owner and himself. 6
great was the speed of. tho mare, th
by tho break of day Dickey felt bil
self sccuro from pursuit. He ht
directed his stops to tho. Fastwar
aud while crossing Haltwhist lo fe
whom should he encounter bot tl
veritable owner of the oxen he hi
stolen but two or three days bofor
and just sold to Mr. Musgrave.
Dickey know the owrier .of the oxi
well, but, luckily for tho free-bobtc
that injured individual did not kne
him. Ho therefore accosted Dicke
and inquired if ho had seen any ox
in tho course of his travels, similar
thoso ho described himself to be
search of.
"Why, to be sure I have,"repli
Dickey; "with the same measure
you described, grazing in Mr. Mi
grave's fields at Xianecrost, only y<
terday. I was rather struck, " he co
tinued, "by their .appearance, a:
learned, on inquiry from one of 1
servants, that Mr. Musgrave had pt
chased them just yesterday. TJ
doubtedly tho oxen are yours. I won
advise you to go to Lanecrost at om
and to claim them."
"Certainly I will," replied the otb
"But I am knocked up with walkir
and it is a long way to.Laneerost.
see you ride a good beast. Will y
sell her?"
After some hard bargaining, ter
wero agreed upon, the purchase n
ney was paid down upon the sp
and Dickey and the farmer separat?
tho farmer to seek his stoleu ox<
actually from the vary owner of i
stolon mare he was himself ridii
whilst Dickey proceeded "where
listed."
Tho next day, the farmer reach
Lanecrost, and, of courso, recognis
his oxen grazl?g in tho field,
forthwith rode up to au elderly n
standiug near, whom he judged
bo tho owuer of the field, and
claimed:
"I say, friend, those arc my o:
in your field! How may you hi
come by them?"
"And I'll be hauged," replied
other, (after taking a long, astonisl
look at the animal on which
questioner was mounted,) if thal
not my maro yon arc riding! Il
may you have come by her, pray?
Each, of course, described tho \
son from whom they had rospectn
purchased tho oxen and the mt
and when this was dono, they di!
vered that they had indeed b
"sold" by u rogue of no cotuti
order.
So laughable, however, did tho j
appear-even to those ho had
"pay the piper" in ti; ..lair-I
neither party could pr . ul .!;
into a merry pealo: ??? iriment w
tho particulars were fully disclose
lt was now clear that the only
to settle tho affair was for each pi
to tako buck his own property.
Musgrave was, of course, deligl
?it tho recovery of his favorite mi
und tho Denton Burn farmer, b<
squally delighted at thc recovery
his favorite oxen.

GEMIAN HORSE POWDER !
For air Diseases to which a Horse is Liable.
rflHE various diseasos to which that no
I bio and useful animal, the horte, is
subject, and thc little knowledge that is
known of them by furriers and ignorant
ostlers, have occasioned many remedies to
bo offorod to tho public under different
forms, with high encomiums, and sanc?
tioned hy dignified names. Some of these
are injurious; others, at beet, of lillie use,
and many entirely worthless, and do not
meet thc want. " A good medicine, freo
from objections of thi? kind, baa long been
desired by many gentlemen who have va?
luable horses, w o therefore offer the only
good medicine-thc true "GERMAN
HORSE POWDER," which has proved so
efficacious in all tho diseases, lt is pre?
pared from the original recipe of Dr. Hei
uitsb, of Germany. Its extraordinary vir?
tues aro attested to by thousands, and for
fifty years bas stood, and still stand.--, first
in thu estimation of all experienced farm?
ers and agriculturists as the best medicine
for the horse. It is recommended for
horses foundered by eating to excess or
drinking cold water when heated, to such
as havo symptoms of glanders or Are ex
Eoaed to tho infection by being with other
oraes, for indigestion, distemper, hide?
bound, drowsiness, loss of appetite, inward

carries off all foul humors, purities and
cools tho blood, and prevents horsos be?
coming stiff and foundered. It is a stimu

The Great American Blood Purifier.
?y?E$39S DELIGHT!
THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the great
American Alterative and Blood Puri
tier, is tho most perfect vegetable coui
Souud of alteratives, tonics, eliuretice and
iaphoretics; making it tho most effective
invigorating, rejuvenating and blood
clcausing cordial known to tho world.
In. introducing this now and extraordi?
nary medicino to thc public, observation
leads us to remark that too little attention
ia paid to tho "lifo of all flesh," tho blood.
Many diseases, and, too, many complaints,
which have, their origin in a vitiated state
of tho blood, aro treated only .s symptoms
and results; whereas, if tho remedy had
been applied to enrich tho blood and ren?
der it pure, both cause- and effect would
havo been removed. The Queen's Delight
is offered to the a?lictcd as a sure remedy
for those diseases arising from nu impuro
condition of tho blood. It has a direct
and specific action upon that thud, arid
consequently rcuders tho blood pure. It
is said, on high authority, that "man no
sooner begins to live than he begins to
die, and that thc characteristics of thc
living organism uro ceaseless chango and
ceasoless waste." lt ia obvious, therefore,
to every rcllcoting mind, that unless tho
blood is* pure, in supplying thc wasto tis?
sues with material, it must bc thc; causo of
innumerable ills and constitutional disor?
ders, such as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He- .
patic Disorders, Consomption, Inflamma?
tions, Fevers, Ac. Lifo anil health is only
to bo maintained by the circulation of puro
arterial blood.
Wo therefore adviso every ono whose
blood is in tho least vitiated by indulgence
or excess, and- whoso constitution is iin
?laired by disease and is suffering from
Iheumatisin, Liver Complaint, Consump?
tion, Sorofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles,
Boils, Itching Humor of tho Skin, Erysi?
pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughnes^jf
the Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Pains in TmO
Bonos, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictic
Sores, Indigestion, Inflammation of the.
Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in thc Back, '
General Debility, and for all complaints
arising from deficiency and poverty of
blood, to use tho Queen's Delight.
Females of delicate constitution, suffer?
ing from weakness and depression ot mind
in consequence of those complaints which
nature imposes at thc period of change,
have a pleasant and sure remedy in tho
Queen's Delight.
Children whose fair and ruddy complex?
ion gavo early promise of health and
beauty, hut too soon become blanched and
pale by some hereditary taint of tho blood,
will ltavc tho rich booii restored by using
the Queen's Delight.
Thc uipicclimated aud persons traveling
into warm countries will fiud tho Queen's
Delight a'great protection from all malari?
ous affection and diseases which originato
in a chango" of climate, diet and lifo.
Tho extraordinary and unprecedented
:ures performed by tho Queen's Delight
Compound is attracting tho attention of
avery one, not only at homo, but abroad.
Tho* merits of this compound aro being
reit and appreciated everywhere. Hoar
what they say of it in New York: "It is a
remedy ?f much importance and value,
.xerti?g an influence over all tho secre
.ions, which is unsurpassed by any other
mown alterative, lt is extensively used in
ill tho various forms of primary aud
iccondary syphilitic affections; also, in
scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases,
n which its use is followed by the most
successful results."
Its properties ns a remedy were first in
roduecd to the notice of thc profession by
Or. Thos. Young Simons, of South Carolina,
is early ns 1828, os a valuable alterative rc
ncdy iii syphilitic affections, and others re
juiruig use of mercury. Dr. Simons' statc
nents havo been endorsed and extended
>y Dr. A. Lopez, of Mohilo, and Dr. II. R.
r'rost, of Charleston. From the reports in
ts favor, thoro seems no reason to doubt
ho efficacy of this medicino in Secondary
Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Disensos,
'bionic Hepatic Affections and other com
ilaints benefited by alterativo medicines.
