Th? Drankard'a Dkaghtcr. , BY O. VT. nUNOAT. Oat In the street with naked feet, I saw tho drunkard's little daughter: Her tattered shawl was. thin and small; Sho little knew, for no one taught her. Her skin was fair, her auburn bair Was blown about her aching forehead; , Her sad, white face wore sorrow's trace, And want and woe, that were not bor? ?rowed. Heartbroken child. elie seldom smiled; Hope promised her no brighter mor? row: Or, if its light Hashed on hor night, Then up carno darker clouds of sorrow. She softly Bail: "Wo havo no bread, No wood to keep tho fire a burning." The child Was ill; tho winds so ohill Her thin, cold blood to ice was turning. But men well fed and warmly clad, And ladies robed bi Holiest fashion, Passed on the sido whero no ono cried To thom for pity or compassion. That long night fled, ?nd then tho light Of rosy dav, in boan ky shining. Sot dome ana spiro and roof on fire, And ?hone on ono beyond repining. Asleop-alone- os cold aa stono, Where no dear parent ever tonght her; In windiDg shoot vT snow and eke', Was found tho drunkard's lifeless daugh? ter._ _ A Parable for Business Bien-Thc Effect of Printer's Ink. There was once upon a timo a man who kept ia store anti sold goods wholesale and retail. And beoome melancholy, becauso customers were shy and times hard. And he said: Lo! I am ruined, and the sensation is disagreeable. And my ruin is moro painful to bear becauso it is slow in pr?gress, even as water doth gradually become hotter in the pot wherein tho lobster boileth, until thecrustaceouscreature shrieketh out his soul in anguish. Lo l it is better to be ruined quickly than to endure this slow torture. I will give my monoy away to tho poor man, even tho poorest, which in he who printeth newspapers; and I will shut up my shop and wrap my? self in sackcloth of desolation, and Sass my days in tho perilous or roken banks, oursing tho hardness of times and rending my garments. And the howling of Borne shall bc ns dulcet sounds of dulcimers, and they wh# blow the flutes and instru? ments of music, compared to the din I will raake in the ears of tho wicked, even in tho ears of tho bank direct? ors. And even as he said, so ho did; foi he was not like other men's sons who are foolish and know it not, and they will do so and so, performing that which is contrary. For the sons of men are fickle, and he that is born of a woman doth spite his face by diminishing the length ol the nose thereof. And, lol. the printer-even ho whe pnblisheth newspapers-was mude glad by the bounty of him who sole wholesale and retail; and he die Bound his praises, and print then moreover; and did blow his trumpoi of fame respecting that man's deal ings from the rising of tho sun ever to the going down of the same. And he-even the printer of pa pers-did magnify and enlarge npoi the stock of goods which the trade: had in his store, and did publish tin variety, and the excellence, rind tin newness, and tho beauty, and th cheapness thereof, till tho people yes, all of them-far and near, wer amazed. And they said, lol this man hat! gathered from the East and "Wes costly merchandize and wares of won drous value-even the workmanshi of cunning artificers-and we kno' it not. (Jto to, thou. We will lay out ou silver and gold in those things whic the printer printed of, and that whic he doth publish shall be ours. Ec this man's merchandize is better thu the bank notes of thoso who proinh to pay and therein lie, even banks c deposit, which beguile us of ot money and swindle us like siu. But the trader was still sad, and 1 said, tiie money that these peop bring me for the goods in my store will give to tho printer, and thus w I ruin myself. I will do that whi< no man hath yet done in my time i before. I will make the printer ma whom all men scorn for his povert rich, and he shall be clad in fine line and rejoice. And the sens of men shall me him in the market place, and t sheriff shall shun him, and tho sot fera shall be rebuked and shall ta off their hats to him that was poor. And he shall flash tho dollars iu t eyes of the foolish, and shall t bank notes and sandwiches. Yea, even shall he light his pi with cotton money and cast his sp tie on the beards of other men. For I shall ruin myself, and he w advertises mo shall enjoy my st stance. But, lol tile trading man-even who sold merchandize-became ri< and even os the unclenu beast lu in the mire, stirred ho not by reas of much greenbacks. And the people flocked to his sb from the North, and from the Sou and from the East, and from 1 West. And tho printer rejoiced, and "phaf'did abound. But tho trader cou hi not beco poor, and his molancholy ceas and tho smiles of happiness were ur his face. And his children did beco mighty in the land, and by reason tho dollars which many of the peo who read his advertisements 1 poured into the trader's money bu HINTS TO ?snpBAirrs.-TheP/eters burg Index thus takes off some fea? tures of the popular furoro for Brazil : "There is a delightful region in South America, accessible by steam? boat, which is. not only pleasant to live in, but affords a charming pros? pect for all who wish to die, as well as to Uve, easy. It is peculiarly well suived to those of our fellow-citizens who look forward for support to public offices and confiscation. The vegetation of tho country is peren? nial, and the splendor and elegance of nature are, beyond doscription, fine. The emigrant, like the native, has only to step ashore, go into the woods, and be happy. He reclines, with dignified ease, under the first clump of trees. Ou looking up, he discovers tho bread-fruit growing, and abovo that the pendant branches of tho cocoa-nut. lu the samo woods, the shirt tree grows, described by tho celebrated traveler, Humboldt. Thc treo is foiled with an ordinary knife, thc skin is taken off, two arm-bolcs are cut, and there is the shirt. A work of five poor little minutes, such as oue may get through with lazily in au idle spell, whittling off tho small end of nothing from a chunk of soft pine. To vary the diet, ono need only whistle for a native, who will come, and for tho consideration of half a cont, will produce from his traps two dozen of wood-cocks, which aro plontiful there, and, as wo all know, aro most delicious catiug. For ono cent, you may obtain a bushel and a half of sweet potatoes. Tho yam, indeed, grows almost sponta? neously, and is brought to its highest state of perfection by hoing simply packed in a holo and covered over with sand-an operation requiring no moro onergy than is necessary to dip up a gourd of water and drink. All sorts of fruits grow in the greatest abundance, aud force themselves into observation by their profusion. Death in that country is, as wo have intimated, easy. All that is necessa? ry is for ono to satiate himself with ?'ams, bread-fruit, shirts, grapes and aziness, and lio down in a juugle and go to sleep. Whou he awakes, ho will find himself in the belly of a boa-constrictor, or heaven, or perhaps 8omowhero else. In Paris, a widow of forty-five sum? mers married a young man aged eighteen. By her first husband, she had a son, whose ago at tho timo of her second marriage was twenty-one. Sho recently died, and by her will loft her fortune to her son and hus? band. As her husband was not of ago, her sou was appointed his guard? ian. Tho proprietor of a cotton factory put this notice on his gate: "No cigars or good looking men admit? ted." In explanation, he said: "Tho ono will set n flame agoing among my cotton, and tho other among my girls. I woe'r admit such dangerous things into my establishment. The risk is too great." Cheever says he is "a follower of John the Baptist." That is false he is a follower of John of Harper's Ferry, surnamed Brown, and afore? time called the thief and assassin of Ossawottomie. A man that hath no virtue in him? self, over envieth virtue in others; for men's minds will either feed upon their own good or upon others' evils, and who wanteth thc one will prey upon the other.

The Great American Blood Purifier. QUEEN'S DELIGHT! fllHE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the great I American Alterativo and Blood Purl tier, is the most perfect vcgetablu com? pound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and diaphoretics; making it tho most effective invigorating, rejuvenating and blood cleansing cordial known to the world. In introducing thia now and extraordi? nary medicine to the public, observation leads us to remark thai too little attention is paid to tho "life of all flesh," the blood. Many diseases, and. too, many complaints, which have their origin in a vitiated state of tho blood, are treated only as symptoms and results; whereas, if the reniedv had been applied to enrich tho blood and ren? der it pure, both cause and effect would havo been removed. Tho Queen's Delight is offered to tho atllictcd as a sure remedy for those diseases arising from au impuro condition of the blood. It has a direct and specific action upon that fluid, and consequently renders tho blood pure. It is said, on high authority, that "man no sooner begins to live than he begins to die, and that tho characteristics of tho living organism aro ceaseless chango and ceaseless waste." lt is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless the blood is* pure, in supplying tho waste tis? sues with material, it must be thc cause of innumerable ills and constitutional disor? ders, such as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, Ac. Lifo and health is only to be maintained by the circulation of pure arterial blood. \Ve therefore advise cyerv ono whose blood is in the least vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whose constitution is im? paired by disease and is Buffering from Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Bolls, Itching Humor of the Skin, Erysi? pelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness of the Skin, Pimples, Blotches, Pains in tho Bones, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictic Sons, Indigestion, Inflammation of tho Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in tho Back, General Debility, and for all complaints arising from deficiency and poverty ot blood, to Ute tho Queen's Delight. Females of delicate constitution, suffer? ing from weakness and depression 01 mind in consequence ot those complaints which nature imposes at the period of change, have a pleasant and turo remedy in tue Queen's Delight. Children whose fair and ruddy complex? ion gavo early promise of health and beauty, but too soon become blanched and pale by some hereditary taint of the blood, will have thu rich booii restored by using the Queen's Delight. Tho unacclimated and persons traveling into warm countries will lind tho 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 ot every one, not only at hom?:, but abroad. The merits ol this componed aro being felt and appreciated everywhere. Hear what they bay of it in Now York: "It ia a remedy of much importance and value, exerting an influence over all thc secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative. It is extensively used in all the various forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in >>.a ofnlons, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in which it- use is followed by the most successful results." It? properties as a remedy were first in? troducid to tho notice of the profession by Dr. T>.oa. Young Simons, of South Carolina, as early as 1628, aa a valuable alterative re? medy iu syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring use of mercury. Dr. Simons' state? ments have been endorsed and extended bv Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. R. Frost, of Charleston. Freo, the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt the efficacy of this medicine in Secondary Syphilis, "Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com? plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
