From the Latvian Punch. Mrs. Caudle's Curtain Lectures. LECTURE I. Mr. Candle ha lent f re pounds to a friend. 'You tuht to bcverv lich. Mr. Caudle
I won ler who'd lend you five pounds? But so it i; a wife may work and may slave! Ha. dear! the many things that might have been done with five pounds! As if people pirkeJ up money in the street! I've wanted a black satin gown these thiee years, and five pounds would have pittty well bought it. Cut it's no matter how I go not at all. Every body says I don't dress a becomes your wifs and 1 know it; but what's that to you, Caudle?
Nothing. Oh, no! you can have fine feel
ings for every body but those belonging to
you. I wih people knew vou as I do
that's all. You like to be called liberal
and your family pays for it. "All the girls want bonnets, and when they are to gel 'em I can,t teli. Half five
pounds would have bought 'em but now
they must go without. Of course they belong to you, and any body but your own llesli and blood, Mr. CauJie. 'The man called for the water rent, today; but I should like to know how people are to pay taxes who throw away five pound to every fellow thai asks them. 'Perhap- you don't know thai Jack, this morning, knocked his shuttle cock thro' the bed-room window. I was going to send fr a glaz.er to mend it; but after you lent the five pounds I was sure we could not nff.ird it. Oh no! the window must go ns it is. and nre'ty weather for a dear child
to sleep with a broken window. He's got
a cold already on his lung?, and I should not at all wonder if lhai broken window
settled him if the dear boy dies, his death will be upon his father's head; for I'm sure
we can'l now pay to mend windows. We might though, and do a good many more thiups if Deonle didn't throw away their
five pounds.
"Next Tuesday, the fire insurance is
due. I should like to know how it is to be
paid. Why, it can't be paid at all. The five pounds would have just done it and
now, insurance is out of the qt.estion.
And there never were so many hres as
there are now. I shall never close my eyes all night but what's that to you, so people call you liberal, Mr. Candle? Your wife and children burnt alive in their beds so all of us to a certainty shall be, for the insurance mint drop. And after we've insured for so many years! Hut how, I should like'to know, are people to insure, who make ducks and drakes of their five pounds? ' I did think we might go to Margate this summer. There's poor little Caroline, I'm sure she wants the sea. But no, clear creature, she must stay nt home she'll go into consumption, there's no doubt of that; yes dear little angel I've
made tip my mind to lose her, now. The child might have been saved; but people
can't save their children and throw away their five pounds, too.
''I wonder where poor little Cherub is! While you w ere lending that five pounds the dog ran out of the shop. You know I never let Jit go into the street, for fear it should he bit by some mad dog, and come home and bite all the chi Idten. It would not now at nil astonish me if the animal
was to come back with the hydrophobia, and give it to ail the family. However, what's jour family to you, so you can play the liberal creature with five pounds. ' Do you hear the shutter, now its banging to and fro? Yes I know what it wants ns well as you, it wants a new fastening. I was going to send for the blacksmith to day. Hut now it's cut of the question now it must Lang of nights since you have thrown away five pounds! 'Well things have come to a pretty pass!
This is the first night I ever made my supper off roast beef without pickles. Out who is to aff.rd pickles when folks are alwavs lending five pounds. "Ah!, there's the soot falling down the chimney. If I hate the smell of anything, it's the smell f s iot. And you know it; but what are my feelings to jot? Sweep the chimne) ? Yes, it's all very fine to say sweep the chimney but how are chimneys to be swept how are thpy to be paid for by people who don't take care of their five pounds? "Do you hear the mice running about
the room? I hear them. If they weie only to drag you out of bed, it would be no matter. S:t a trap for 'cm. Hut how are people to afford the cheese, when every day they loose five pounds? "Hark! I'm sure there's noi.-e down stairs. It would'nt at all surprise me if there wi re thieves in the house. Well, it may be the cat; but thieves are sure to ome in the night. There's a wretched fastening to the back door, but these are not times to afford bolts and bars, when fools won't take care of their five pounds! Mary Anne ought to have gone to the Dentist to -morrow. She wants three teeth s.ken out. Now it can't be done. Three teeth that quite disfigures the child's'mouth. Hi:t there they must stop, and spoil the cetest face that ever was made. Otherwise she'd been a wife for a lord. Now, when she grows up. who'll have Tier? Nobody. We shall die and leave her alone and unprotected in the world. But what do yon care for that? Nothing; so you can squander away five pounds. "And now, see, Mr. Caudle, what a mis
ery you've brought upon your wretched family! I can'l have a satin gown the girls can't have new bonnets the water rent must stand over lark must pet his death through a broken window our fire insurance can't be paid, so we shall all fall victims 10 the devouring clement we can't go to Margate, and Caroline will go to an eaily grave the dog will rome mad and bite us the shutter will go bang forever the soot ill always fall the mice will never let tis have a wink of sleep thi ?ves will be always breaking into the house and our dear Mary Anneb' frevrr loft an unprotected maid and all, all
Mr. Caudle because you will go on lending
five pounds!"'
From the Boston Cultivator. "PASSING AWAY." "Passing away" is inscribed on the beautiful and lovely in nature, the admired and costly in art. Every leaf that flutters in the summer' breeze, every flower that blooms, has stamped upon it the impress of decay. A little while they adorn Dame
Nature's ever changing gHrb, then return
to the dust from wiience tney sprung.
Works of art, which cost years of labor.are for a lime cherished and admired, then
they pass away, and are as if they had nev
er been. Passing away are the hours and pleasures of earth. The brightest laurels won by ambition's burning zeal will fade, the choicest jewels plucked by genius' eager hand will mingle with the dust, and riches gained by long continuous toi!, will fly away. To-day, man may bask in the sunlight of prosperity, to-morrow, the dark
cloiids'of adversity may encompass him,
and its hoarse winds chant the requiem of
iovs that have fled. Time. too. is fast
passing away. It delays not, though mor
lals linger to be wise. Hour after hour
goes to mingle with :'the years beyond the
flood'" each bearing upon its wings to the
throne of the Eternal, some record of its use. Ever passing away to the spirit la-id
are the loving and the loved. In the in
nocence ol childhood, the beauty of youth, the vigor of manhood, and the weakness
of old age, are they called to bid adieu to
the busy scenes of life. Thus it is with
the tilings of earth; its beauties fade, its
honors and pleasures are transient, and the dearest objects of our affection are
removed by death. But is there not some
thing which can satisfy the cravings of the
immortal mind? Inspiration, in accents sweet, answers "yes." And those who obey its teachings will find beyond this vale of tears, a home eternal, friends immortal, and joys unceasing, such as earth has never known. Ida.

Oh Horrible! The people up North must have some awful roads, if the following article from the Goshen Democrat is any criterion. What a glorious set of horses they must have! Foit Wayne Mail Route. For the last two or three years the public hereabouts
have had reason to complain frequently of
the failures on the Fort Wayne Mail Route,
The truth is, some fellow has taken the
route at so low n rate that he has been un
able to put more than the shadow of
horse 'on the road. Old broken down
hacks, ringboned and Fpavined, stifled knockkneed, blind, deaf and dumb, glan
dered and rholicy, are bought up at the
rale of ten dollars a dozen, and put upon
the track to go through two or three trips
and then keel up at the side of the road,
leaving the mail boy to trudge a half doz
en miles on foot to the next post office. The road is lined with skeletons, and some of the them so poor as to melt the heart of a crow. Is there no help for such things? 4

1 he following is from II. C. Langdon,
formerly editor of the Troy Titr.es, in re
ason to Hurdsal s extract of Sarsaparilla-
It is a valuable medicine. I have tried it
thoroughly and can bear ample testimony to its good effects in my own person. I
have for several years been the subject of
violent diseases, acute pains in the limbs, iic, and verily believe the free use of Sarsaparilla was the principal remedy that
performed the cure." For further evidence of its efficacy, reference is made to the fol
lowing Physicians, who have prescribed it with every success in their practice:
Dr. Stephen Ilonner, Dr. Charles Woodward, Wm. Mount, J. P. Buckner, William Smith, " William Goshorn . " J. Black;
Or to Micajah Williams, Esq.,
Adam m. Kiddle, " Edward C. Roll, N. M'Lean, Samuel Lewis, " Samuel Talbott. " Captain L. Sbally, James Torrence. All of these last named gentlemen have
either tried it themselves or used it in their families, with the happiest results.
Numerous references might be given, but
thepc are deemed sufficient.
Thit preparation ia warranted to cure
the moee inveterate case of disease, arising from impurity of blood; it has never vet been known to fail, and in no case is re
muneration asked, where a perfect and
speedy cure is not effected. Prepared and sold by CALEB S. BUSDSAL.

GATLING'S PATENT SEED PLAN
TING HARROW. A newly invented and very valuable ma
chine. This wul be found a great labor sa
ving machine, as it preforms the triple work of ii arrowiko, sowio and covering, all at the same time, and in a much belter manner than done in the ordinary way, It sows Wheat, Oats, Hemp, and all kinds of small grain and seeds in the best manner, and can be made to sow broad cast, or in drills, but tbe latter mode, as to wheat
is far preferable, as experience has proven that wheat planted in drills produce from 5 to 10 bushels more to tbe acre, than when
broad cast. In England wheat Is invariably planted in drills, and large crops obtained, and 'the rice planters at the South all drill their rice, which adds at least one fourth to the crop. Dr. SSi'oble, a distinguished agriculturist of Delewate, "has tried tbe relative advantages nf planting wheal in drills 9 inches apart, and sowing it broadcast in the usual way, the soil and treatment in other respects were precisely alike, the result was an average of 34 bushels to the acre on the sown, and 42 on the drilled. These experiments were made on fields of some acres." Tbe construction and simplicity of this machine is such, aa to render it a very little subject to g"t out of order, and must
last wun reasonaoie care lor many years, and is capable of saving the farmer more than its cost every year, and consequently, should be in the possession of every agriculturist. It will be warranted to perform well or no sale. It will harrow, plant, und
cover 10 acres per day in either bills or drills, in the best manner; it can be mndi; to operate with one or two horses, and the cost will not exceed from $25 to $23 at the
manufactory.

Brown, Esq. of this City, f;r the manuficture of no less than 200 Reapers, which are now under way, (or distribution in the West, for UiJ next harvest, and arc offered on terms that amount to no more than atrial of the machine; and this it is thought, will be sufficient to excite cither interest or curiosiiy enough in the minds of alt wheat growtrs, to write to Mr. Brown(poet paio) for a copy of tbe Enquirer which will be fjrwarded, containg the terms in detail, a cut and description of the Reaper; report of Committees, Ac, from

TO THE PEOPLE OF FRANKLIN Ac ADJOINING COUNTIES. IN all seriousness we address you, and upon an irnpoitant eubjeet; on which deeply effects your interests; wetherefore earnestly licit your candid and careful, attention. In presenting this subject we have in view, we would refer you to the following well known gentlemen. Wo 4o tbia, being fully aware that such name are only needed to give character and importance to any subject; we therefore, would nrge opon all, wbo after earefully roadiiur
tbia article, feel they are interested, to call
upon the gentlemen referred to, and "sea
whether these things are so.
Hitt & Haile, Brookville. E. Ttiter & Co. Metamora, Conwell. Srovp ir Van BsRoEN.Laurel Wm. Adams, Fairfield, E. Corey, Bloominggrove, Morgan & Nickolb, Andertonville. The above gentlemen have either used.
or are agents for the sale of tbe famous, and justly celebrated "Jew Davids or He' brew Plaster and Resurrection or Persian Pi7,"and have recently been supplied
wud mem anew and can testify to their exalted character, and also furnish neontro-
vertable proof as to their virtues and effi-
cacy4in all cases for whicb.either the "He. brew Plaster," or "Peraian Pilla." are recommended. The success of these Medi
cines in the Kastern States, and W. T.
Ohio, Pa., Nichigan, Illinois, and tbia Stste and indeed wherever introduced, hava
been unprecedented in tbe annals of medi
cines, clearly proving tbe fact, that when a
medicine possessing real merit and great medical virtues, ia offered to the public, it will meet with a success commensurate with its worth. The cbaract-r of tbe "Hebrew PlaateV' and "Persian Pilla," ia fairly established", and upon a firmer basis than any otber medicines of which we have any knowledge. Having, for six years successfully met a'nd warded nT the shafts of malice and envy", which by tbe interested, have been hurled a-rainst them and by their wonderful cores, done away with all prejudice heretofore exsting against patent remedies, we bar
good grounds for the assertion, that w sincerely believe there ia no medicine that
gives such general satisfaction and fail in
so few instances to benefit all who use them
a the "Hebrew Plaster" and "Persian
Pills." This is paid after mature delibera
tion and in no spirit of boasting. We wish
me medicine to stand upon its own merit, therefore shall not attempt to give it character by puffs or ficticious certificates. a
ES- such a course never adds to the virtues of
any medicine, but is sure soon to meet ita just reward 'from an enlightened public. Of the"Hebrew Plaater." we remark that the peculiarities of this Chemical Compound, are owing to ita extraordinary effect upon the anima! fibre or nerves, ligaments and muscles; its virtues being carried ,by them to the immediate seat of disease, or of pain and weakness. However good any internal remedy may be, this, as an external application, will prove a powerlul auxiliary in removing tbe disease and facilitating the cure in cases of Local Inflammation. Scrofulous Affections, King's Evil, Gout, Inflammatory and
Chronic Rheumatism, and in all cases where
seated pain or weakness exists.
e have likewise witnessed the happy
effects of its softening and healing qualities
in numDeriese caeea of scrofulous Humors,
Knots, w eno.vv bite Swellings, Hard Tumors, Stiff Joints, Ague Cakes. Aerue in
the Breast, and the like, to tbe united sat
isfaction of ourselves and others.
It has likewise .been very beneficial in
cases of weakness, such as Weakness and
Paiu m the stomach. Weak Limbs, Lameness, Affections of the Spine, Female Weak' nesses, 4 c. No female, subject to pain or weakness in the back or side, should be without it. Married ladies, in delicate ait ualions, find great relief from wearing this plaster. The application of this plaster between the shoulders, has been found a certain remedy for Cold9, Cougli6. Phthisic and Lung Affections, in their primary'stage. It destroys inflammation, by producing a copious perspiration. No physician should be without it.
No puffing or great spread of certificate
is intended. Those who with to satisfy themselves of the efficacy of this Plaster can obtain sufficiet to spread 6 or 8 pit
ters, lor su ctg.
We would caution tbe public against
buying of any one but those who we publish as agent; for we have reason to believe some unprincipled person has tampered
with tbe life and health of his fellow man.
by counterfeiting the "Hebrew Plaster."
lie sure and ascertain that whoever bastne Plaster for sale are agents for tbe bubicnbers. None other is genuine.
THE RESURRECTION OR PERSIAN
PILLS. These Pil!e raise from tbe greatest weak
ness, distress, and suffering, to a slate ol strength, health and happiness. The Mine of thebe pilla originated from the circumstance of the medicine being found only irr the cemeteries ofPersia.
This vegetable production being off pe
culiar kind, led to experiments as to il
medical qualities, and virtue. In half a
century it became an established medicine
for tbe diseases of that ountry. I he extract ofthie singular production was-intto-duced into some parte of Europe in the yean
17B3, and used by mauy celebrated physi
cians in curing certain diseases, wnere b.i otber medicines bad been used in vain.
Early in the year 1792,the extract was com
bined with certain vegetable medicine-
imported from Dura Baca, in the East Indies, and for ei ed into Pilla. Those in health, wbo live in marshy coun tries and unhealthy climates, cau avoid the diseases to which their situations are sub
ject, by taking the Persian PilU once, anJ
in tome instances.perhaps, twice a to cleanse the system, and purify it from the email accumulation of effluvia, which causes the different diseases, in different situations of the country. Those who find diseases fast tincreasiug upon them, should take 6 or 6 pills on going to bed, which will generally operate aa a gentle emetic and cathartic; after which continue the use of them in smaller doses, aa recommended on either part of tne bill. Those who follow tbia course will find tbem a eure and Never failing Preventive. Price of Pills 25 cents per box. oi i p. BARTER CO. Janunry23rd. 51J'
