Pleasing Everybody.
HINTS TO THE EDITOKS.
On? ???d*r cries, joar strains to grave,
Too much morality yon have,
Too much about religion;
Give mo some witch or wizard tales,
Of slip-slop ghosts with fin's and scales,
And features like a pigeon.
I love to read, another cries,
Those monstrous fashionable lies
In other words, those novels;
Composed of Kings, and priests, find lords,
Of border wars, and gothic hordes
That used to live in hoy?is.
The man of dull scholastic lore
Would like to see a little more
Of flrst-rato scraps of Latin;
The grocer faiu would learn the price
Of tea and sugar, fruit and rice;
The draper silk and satin.
Another cries, wo want moro fun,
A witty anecdote or pun,
A rebus or a riddle;
Some wish for parliamentary news;
And some, perhaps, of wiser viows,
Would rather hear a fiddle.
Another cries, I waut to BOO
A jnmbled-up variety,
A variety in all things
A miscellaneous hodge-podge print,
Composed (I only give the hint)
Of multifarious small things.
I want some marriage news, says a Miss,
It constitutes my highest bliss,
To hear of weddings plenty;
For in the time of general rain
None suffer from a drouth, 'tis plain,
At least not one in twenty.
I want to hear of deaths, says one,
Of people totally undone
By losses, fire or fever;
Another answers, full as wise,
I'd rather have tho fall and rise
Of raccoon skins and beaver.
Some signify a secret wish
For now and then a favorite dish
Of politics to suit them;
But here we rest at perfect peace,
Por should they swear the moon was cheese
We never should confute them.
X)r grave or humorous, wild or tamo,
Lofty or low, 'tis all the same;
Too haughty or too humble;
So, brother editors pursue
The path that seems tho best to you,
And let the grumblers, grumblo.

THE E?CGK.AF1?Y OF A SHILLING.
BV S. B.
" 'What is your name?'
"The boy gazed steadily into, the eyes of
the man, but said nothing.
" 'Did yon hear me?' impatientlv.
" 'Yes/
" 'Answer, then! What is your name?'
"He went close to the officer. 'My name
is William Orville. I came hore to kill you.
She sout me.'
" 'Hal' the soldier staggered back; for
notwithstanding that vague fear in his soul,
that answer, so like her, sent a shiver
through him, and caused his cheek to pale
even under its coloring of tropic suns.
" T must send him away; what would
the Donna Estrella say?' he muttered, under
his breath; for he was soon to espouse the
high born Spanish beauty, Donna Estrella
D'Alzo.
" 'Stay here!' he commanded, and turned
to leave the room. Quick as thought, the
little figure sprang forward; something
bright flashed iu the raysof the setting sun,
and cutting through flesh and bono, barely
touched the false heart of General William
Orville. .
"Prine waited long for his master's dress?
ing bell, but waited in vain. Auxiety at
last was changed to alarm, and the door,
which was found.locked, was broken open
then all could see why the commander had
neither answered nor come forth. He laj
partly on his face, his white linen garment*
stained with tho crimson flood that spread
widely over the matted floor.
" 'Who has done this?' was heard or.
every side, and many eyes flashed darkly a;
the question was asked, for tho soldiers
loved their gallant commander. It was nc
.suicide, for death had como from a daggei
wound in the back. Prine received mau)
scowling glances until ho bethought him tc
tell of the little beggar boy he had left it
his master's apartment. There was searching
in hot basto, but thu only clue ever obtained,
was the testimony of a carrier, who had
seen a shadowy little figure flit by bim ir
the dusk of the evening; and horememberec
the feeling of compassion that had stoler
over him ns he saw the blood that coverec
the face and bands of the wretched fugitive
for he doubted not that he was tho victim o:
ill treatment.
"In the rnoanwhile, William had found t
hiding place in the hole of a vessel, tba
weighed anchor and stood out to sea at 1<
o'clock P. M. He kept concealed unti
hunger drove him forth, and though th<
Captain was annoyed, ho could feel onlj
pity for the forlorn-looking creature wh
had such a white, scared expression on hi
little thin face. He was very reticent, nm
neither persuasion nor threats could indue
him to speak of himself.
"On the third day out, a vessel hove ii
sight, and on boing hailed, reported tha
she had touched at Gibraltar. William'
face grew ghastly and his kuees shook untie
him; with trembling hand he took me fror
his pocket, and laid me in the Captain'
palm.
" 'Take it, it is nil I have; you have bec
kind to me. God bless you for't.'
" 'What is the matter, my lad?' and th
kind Captain turned his puzzled face fror
me to the boy.
'. 'They are coming for me, bot I will nc
go with them; I will die here,'the white lip
stammered. And lief ore any one compre
bended his design, he darted ovrr the ve?
I s-l's side, ?uni was lout in tho blue depths of
the silent sea. Although efforts were made
i to rescue him. bo WUK never seen again;
' some shnrk had, perhaps, talton bim down
to furnish a bloody feast in it? balls of pil?
lared coral.
"When Cuptniu Blukeney arrived at
home, and diKpl.iy?A ?he treasure? he had
brought for the dear ones there, ho plaoed
me in little blue-eyed Mary's baud.
" 'There, my dear, isa bright new piece
for you.'
"Then he told tho tale of tho little beg?
gar boy, whom all believed to have boen in?
sane, and it was with n touch and look of
awe that Mary carried and laid me away,
tears standing in ber blue oyes nil the while.
"Mouths after. Captain Blukeney casually
taking up a newspaper, read un account of
the assassination ot General Orville, with a
description of the supposed murderer; then
he understood all.
CHAPTER II.
" 'Mother!' tho cherry young voice had
something of the breeziness of tho hills and
fields in it. 'I say, mother, what's in this
old chest? Let's give it a regular turn-out?'
Up went tbs lid of tho old chest in which
I had lain for so many years, and an eager,
boyish fuco bent over nie, while a pair of
sun-burned hands turned everything up side
down, iu a very lawless way.
" 'Oh, look, motherl bereis some money;'
taking me up, and holding m J towards a
fair, matronly woman, who came forward at
his exclamation. I had not seen that face
for five-and-twonty years, but I knew it in
stautly as that of little Mary; who never had
touched mo after hearing of tho wickedness
of my former possessor.
'" Don't, Jack," she pleaded; 'that be?
longed to a desperato little boy who Hinder?
ed au officer iu the British army,'the tono
saying that crime could never go beyoud
that. .
" 'But, mother, tho shilling didn't mur?
der au officer if the boy did. Give it to
me; I'll take it where the wiud will blow the
bad odor off of it.'
" 'I do not suppose you will kep it long
enough to injure you greatly, my son,' the
mother said, gravely; "spend it iu deeds of
charity, that the curse that clings to it may
be couccaled.'
" 'Don't trouble yourself about it, mother,
I only wish that I had enough of them, I'd
risk them, ghosts and all;" and the lad weut
out, making the meadows resound with his
shrill whistling.
"Not far had Jack gone into the woods
beyond the field, when he espied n bird's
nest of raro workmanship. Off went cap,
jacket aud shoes, and np went Jack into thc
tree, never noticing at the time, that I rolled
far out of his pocket into the grass. The
nest was secured, and the boy, flushed and
panting, stood on tho ground gathering up
his belongings.
" 'My shilling! oh, ^uere is my shilling?'
he asked, putting bis hand iuto his empty
pocket, and searching tho ground with
careful eyes. 'Can it bo as mother says,
that some evil goes with it? No, it can't be
that; it is because I robbed the bird of bei
nest, that this bad luck has happened tc
me.' With a very conscious face, he slowly
remounted tho tree, and set the nest in ?tc
old place again. After another fruitless
search, he took a very sober face homo tc
tell his mother of his loss.
"I had not kin there long when a flock
of goats carno browsing by, and ono mis
chievous littlo kid, with ono bite, took th?
green roof from over my head. I gazed uj
into the blue sky and green trees, and fel
so terribly lonely, that I began to wish my
self back in Jack's pocket. Just then, i
gentle rustling caused me to look around
to meet tho brown eyes of a fair yonnf
maiden, that came slowly along tho wood
laud path. I shone my brightest, and th?
gentle eyes were caught by my sparkle
With a little, glad cry she picked me up.
"'A happy omen! Oh, I know it is i
happy omen.'
"Sho was still looking at me, when i
heavier step was heard, an arm was stolei
softly around thc slender waist, and ai
honest, handsome face looked over he
shoulder.
" 'What is it, Alice, a shilling? What ar
you going to do with it?' os hand and sb.il
ling were both imprisoned iu a palm broai
and strong.
" 'I found it;" with a pleased smile, 'am
I intend that we shall divido it and wear i
until father consents to our anion.'

AYER* S CHERRY PECTORAL"
Fur Diseases of the Throat and Lungs, such as
Coughs, Collis, Whooping Cough, Bron?
chitis, Asthma and Consumption.
PROBABLY never before in tho whola history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so
deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of years, and among most
of tho racesof men, it has risen higher and higher
In their estimation, as it has become better known.
RH uniform character and powor to euro tho vari?
ous affections of the lungs and throat, havo made
it known as a reliable protector against thom.
While adapted to milder forms of disease and to
young children, it is at the same time the most
effectual remedy that can bo given for incipient
consumption, and the dangerous affections of tho
throat and lungs. As a provision against sudden
attacks of CROUP, it should bo kept on hand in
every family; and, indeed, as all aro sometimes
subject to colds and coughs, all should be provided
with thia antidoto for thom.
Although Bettlcd CONSUMPTION is thought
incurable, still great numbera of cases where tho
disease seemed settled havo been completely
cured, and tho patient restored to sound health by
tho CHERRY PECTORAL. So complete is its
maetery over tho disorders of tho lungs and
throat, that the most obstinato of thom yiold to it.
When nothing clso could reach them, under tho
CHERRY PECTORAL they subsidoand disappear.
SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS find great
protection from it .
ASTHMA is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
BRONCHITIS is generallv cured bv taking tho
CHERRY PECTORAL in small and frequent doses.
?o generally aro its virtues known that wo neod
not publish tho certifies tos of them here, or do
moro than assure the public that its qualities are
fully maintained.
AYER S AGUE CURE,
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill
Fever. Hemittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical
or Bilious Fever, if c., and indeed all the affections
irhich arise from malarious, marsh, or miasma?
tic poison?.
Ae its name implies, it does Cure, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis?
muth, /inc, nor any other mineral or poiac.ious
snliBtaiico whatever, it in nowiso injures any pa?
tin;!. The number and imnortaiico of its cures in
tho ague districts are literally beyond account,
and wc believe without a parallel in tho history of
Ague medicino. Our pride i.* gratified hy the
acknowledgments we receive of tho radical cores
effected in obstinate cases, and where other reme?
dies had wholly failed.
Unacclimatod porsons, either resident in, or
(raveling through miasmatic localities, will bo
piolcctod bv taking tho AGUE CURE dailv.
For LIVER COMPLAINTS, arising from tor?
pidity of tho Liver, it is an excellent remedy,
stimulating tho Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
ie an excellent remeky, producing many truly re?
markable cures where other medicines bad failed.
