W- pray together at the kirk
For merry, itv-rcy, solely;
Hand Weary with the evil work,
We lift (hem to the Holy!
The corpse is ealin below our knee,
He spirit bright before thee:
Between them, worse than either, we—
Without the rest of glory!
• •••••»
We sit together, with the skies,
The steadfast skies, above us;
We look into each other’s eyes—
And how long will yon love >»?
The eyes grew dim with prophecy,
The voices, low ai.d breath less:
Till 'fen'h us part! oh! words, to he
Our SKAT for jmv* the deathless!
We tremble by (l»e ha rn ess bed
Of one loved and departed:
Our tears diop on the lips that said
X»ist night. Be stronger-hearted!
0 Ood! to clasp those finger* close,
And yet to feci so loi^lyl
To SEE A nilHTM DEAHE.PT BROWS,
Which is the dvTuoht ojrtvf
We sit on hills onr childhood wist,
Woods, hamlets, streams, beholding:
The sun strikes tin oligh t&e farthest mist
The city’s spire <o goldem
Tlia city’s golden spire it was,
When hope and health were strongest
But now it is the church-yard crass
We cock upon me lokoest.
A WARM TRAIN.
Let him kiss, let him kiss me
With the kisses of the mouth;
For his bursting lip is glowing
With the glories of the South!
Oh! the rosy wine is luscious
In his chalices of gold;
But his love tome is sweater,
Yea, a thousand, thousand fold;
And the Very air that dances
’Neath the numbers of his name,
.Smiles my seal with dreamy music,
And my heaving heart with dame.
For Ilove him, yes, I love him!
So that e’en his name shall be
Eilce the breeze that hunts the oil or
From some-blossom-clouded tree,
To our he aven-h a tlo wed' te m p I «#,
To the Virgin, and to uie.
[Dublin Nation.
Tnr. Land or Contrabiks.—In Aus
tralia, the north is the hot wind, and the
south the cool; the westerly the most un
healthy and the east the most salubrious;
it is summer with the colonists when it ts
winter at home, and the barometer is con
sidered to rise before had weather, and to
fall before good; the swans are black and
the eagles are white; the mole lays eggs,
and has a duck's bill; the kangaroo, an
animal between the deer and the squirrel,
has five claws on his fore paws, three tal
ons on his hind legs, like a bird, nnd yet
hops on its tail. There is a bird (mclli
phaga) which has a broom in its mouth
instead of a tongue; a fish, one half be
longing to the geuus-raia; and the other
that of squalus. The cod is found in the
rivers, nnd the perch in the sen; the vol
leys are cold, and the mountain tops warm;
the nettle is a lefty tree, and the poplar a
dwarfish shrub; the cherry grows with the
stone outside; the fields are fenced with
mahogany: the humblest house is fitted up
with ceder, and the myrrh plants are burnt
lor fuel; the trees are without fruit, the
flowers without scent, and the birds with
out song.

Dr. Sledge —Dear Sir: I have sold all your
Cholera or Diarrhaia Syrup: I have used it
myself, and also in my family several times,
and I can say for the truth, it is the best medi
cine for the Flux I have ever seen, for it has
not failed to cure in every case in 48 hours. I
would not be without it in my family for ten
dollars per bottle.

Dear Sir—In conversation with your agmt,
learned that some prejudiced persons, which
re to be found everywhere, against patent npd
cines. spoke of your medicines as not doing ■
nuch for themselves or any one else. Tc see i
usticudone between all parties, and to enable j ,
ithers, if they wish, to receive the same bene- |
its that I have from your medicines, I will ,
imply give you a statement of facts, which
rou can make any use of you please. I.1 any :
ine doubts let them call on me and I can latis
y them. I am probably as well known as any
me in this portion of the State, but I an not
n the habit of giving certificates, lot feel
hat in giving this one I am fully justilied.— j

Dr. Sledge:—Dear Sir: Your meiicines
xave rendered general satisfaction her eg they
lave even gone beyond the flattering ’ecom
nendation given bv yourself. I have tsed in
ny family, with unparalleled succes% your
Vervous Tonic, your Diarrhoea Syrip, and
rour Liniment and Hoarhound Pectorsl ; and
lave found them superior to any maiieines
iver used here, for the various diseasesarising
'rom a nuasuiatie country like this, where
[.'ever and Ague. Diarrhoea and Rheunatism,
ire the prevailing diseases. Your Jfervous |
runic has been nsed by many others as well
is myself, as a preventive of Fever anl Agile ;
ind it has invariably given satisfaction. 1
For one say emphatically that it will prevent
Chill* and Fevers, if taken necordirg to the ■
iirections; and that one bottle will »ve any
Family ten times the cost, if used as a preven
tive. I used it in mv family las’: year. and I
will certify on oath that on* bottle sived me
it least ten tunes its cost. The those years
previous to last year, not one of os escaped
the Chills and Fevers, and last year we u>ed
only tae of your bottles of Nervnuj Tonic;
_MK M P HI j ATj \ E j ” '»?.![ ^ j
