STICK TOGETHER.
The inan who wrote the following de-1
serves the crown of a hero, for his heart
is of the stufF from which heroes are
made:
When midst the wreck of fire and smoke,
When canons rend the skies asunder,
And fierce dragoons with quickening stroke
Upon the reeling regiment thunder.
The ranks close up to sharp command,
Till helmet’s feather touches feather;
Compact the furious shock thev stand,
And conquer ! for they slick together!
When now ’mid clouds of woe and want,
Our comrades’ wails rise fast and faster,
And charging madly on our front
Come the bfcick legions of disaster,
Shall we present a wavering band
Anti fly like leaves before wild weather!
No! side by side and hand in hand,
We’ll stand our ground and stick togethei!
God gave us hands—one left, one right;
The first to help ourselves, the other
To stretch abroad in kindly might,
And help along our faithful brother.
Then if you see a brother fall,
And bow his head before the weather,
If you be not a dastard all,
You’ll help him up and stick together.

No Time run Swapping,—An Iridi-!
ana man was traveling down the Ohio, in
a steamer, with a inure and a two-year
old coll, when by a sudden careen of the
boat, all three were tilted into the river.
The Hoosier, ns he rose, puffing and
blowing, above the water, caught hold of
the tail of the colt, not having a doubt that
the natural instinct of the animal would
carry him safe ashore; the old mare took a
“ bee line” for the shore, but the frightened
colt swam lustily down the current, with
its owner still hanging fast. “ Let go of
the colt and hang on lo the old mare,”
shouted some of his friends. “ Three,
booh!” exclaimed the Iloosier, spouting
the. water from his mouth, and shaking his
head like a Newfoundland dog, “ it’s
mighty fine your telling me to let go the
colt; but to a man that can't swim, this
aiti t exactly the time (or swapping horses."

Home Papers.—Stick then, yo sturdy
yeomanry and tillers of the soil to your
home newspapers. No matter if you are
poor; remember that none are so poor as
the ignorant,except it be the depraved,and
too often go together. Stick to your own
local paper, though it may not be so large
or imposing as some city weekly ; but re
member it is the advertiser of your neigh
borhood and daily business, and tells you
what is going on around you, instead of a
thousand miles away. If it is not on nice
paper and as good as you wish to have it,
pay your subscriptions well and get your
neighbors, to do the same—rely upon it,
the natural pride of the publisher will
prompt him to improve it as fast as possi

friend, Mr. F. Russer, the gentleman to whom
I went with to sea from Gallatin, lias im
proved to tile extent that lie is able to go any
where his business calls him; in fact your

L’bolera Medicine, 18 bottles Nerve and Hone
Liniment, 24 bottles Hoarhound Pectoral, and

[ will send the other half. I expect you to
lend mo your Nervous Tonic at $1 00, as you
sold it at $2 00 by the single bottle. Do not
lelav sending the Medicine, as there is a con
liderable demand or call for it. Mr. Peave,
who was given over to die in a few days, is up

Dr. J. M. Slf.dge:
Dear Sir—In conversation with your agent,
[ learned that some prejudiced persons, which
ire lo be found everywhere, against patent med
icines. spoke of your medicines as nk doing
much for themselves or any one else. To see
iustl.ee done between all puilios, and to enable
others, if they wish, to receive the same bene
fits that I have from your medicines, I will
simply give you a statement of facts, which
you can make any use of you please. If any
one doubts let them call on me and I can satis
fy them. I am probably as well known as any
one in this portion of the State, but 1 am not
in the habit of giving certificates, but feel
that in giving this one 1 am fully justified.—
My son was taken sick with the Flux last July,
and lay seventeen or eighteen days, when all
hope on my part was gone, and nothing ap
peared to do him any good, T commenced giv
ing him vour Diarrhoea or Flux Syrup, and he
commenced mending immediately. 1 verily
believe itwas the saving of his life. You have
the facts. Hoping that others may receive
the benefit that mv son did, 1 remain, yours
respectfully, JOHN F. ANDERSON.
Anderson. Tens,, March 31, 1858.
Dr. Sledge:—Dear Sir: Your medicines
nave rendered general satisfaction here; they
have even gone beyond the flattering recom
mendation given by yourself. 1 have used in
my family, with unparalleled success, your
Nervous Tonic, your Diarrhoea Syrup, and
your Liniment anil Hoarhound Pectoral ; and
have found them superior to any medicines
ever used here, for the various diseases arising
from a miasmatic country like this, where
Eevcr and Ague. Diarrhoea and Rheumatism,
are the prevailing diseases. Your Nervous
Tonic has been used by many others as well
as myself, as a preventive of Fever and Ague;
and it has invariably given satisfaction. 1
for one say emphatically that it will prevent
Chills and Fevers, if taken according to the
directions; and that one bottle will save any
family ten times the cost, if used as a preven
tive. I used it in ray family last year, and I
will certify on oath that one bottle saved me
at least ten times its cost. The three years
previous to fast year, not one of us escaped
the Chills and Fevers, and last year we used
only one of your bottles of Nervous Tonic;
