POETK V.
PASSING AWAY .1 Dream.
by J. riEiroirr.
Wu it the chime of a tin; boll.
That came so sweet to my dreaming ear,
Like tbe silvery tones of a fairy's ahell
That ha winds en the beach, so mellow and clear.
When tbe winds and tbe wares lie together asleep.
And the Moon and the Fairy are watching the deep,
She dispensing her silvery light.
And he, bis notes as silverj quite,
While tbe boatman listens and ships his osr.
To eatcb the music that comes from tbt ehorel
Hark! the notes, that on my ear that play,
Are eel towordsiasihey float they say,
"Passing away! passing away!"
But no; it was not a fairy's shell,
Blown on the beach, so mellow and clear;
Nor was it the tongue of a silver bell.
Sinking the boor, that filled my ear,
As 1 lay in my dread; yet was it a chime
That told of the Bow of the stream of time.
For a boauliful clock from the ceiling bung.
And a plump little girl for a pendulum swung,
I As you hare sometimes seen, in a little ring
That hangs in bis cage, a Canary bird swing.)
And she held to her boso n a budding koquet,
And, aa she enjoyed it, she seemed to say,
"Passing away! passing away!"
O, bow bright were the wheels, that told
Of tbe Ispse of time aa they moved round slow!
Aad tbe bands, as they swept e'er the dial of gold.
Seemed to point to the girl below.
And lo! she bsd changed: in a few short hours
Her boquet had become a garland of flowers,
That she held in her outstretched hands, and flung
This way and that, as sbe, dsncing, sarong
In the fullness of grace and of womanly pride,
Tbat told me ahe soon waa to be a bride;
Yet, then, when expecting her happiest day,
la the same sweet voice I beard her say.
"Passing am-ay! passing away!"

HAX'S LINIMENT.
m HIS extraordinary chemical composition, the rr
-L. tnlt of science and the invention of a celebra
ted medical man, tbe introduction of which to the
pablie was invetted with the solemnity of a death
bed bequest, has since gained a reputation unparal
leled, fully lostaining the eorrectnew of the lamented
Dr. Gridley't Iait coufestinn, that "he dared not die
without giving to posterity the benefit of aii knowl
edge on this subject." and be therefore bequeathed
to bis friend an-i attendant, Solomon Mays, the secret
of his discovery.
It is now need in the principal hosj-italt, and the
private practice in onr country, first and most cer
tainly for the core of the Piles, and also extensive
and effectually as to baffle credulity, unless where
its effects are witnessed. Externally in the follow

Its operation upon adults and children in reducing
rheumatic swellings, and looseoing cougba and tight
ness of tbe cbest by relaxation of tbe parts, bas been
surprising beyond conception. Tbe common remark
of those who have osed it in the Piles, is, "It acts like
a charm."
THE PILES. Tbe price, 41, is refunded to any
person who will ate a bottle of Hay's Liniment for
the Piles, and return the empty bottle without being

who is well snd favorably known throughout the state
Ii was furnished in reply lo a letter from another gentle
man, who requested his opinion or tbe school:
St. Cuakles, Mo. Aran. 14. 1640.
In reply to your enquiry of my opinion of the Female
School in St. Charles for several years past, by Mrs.
Allen, I can freely and cheerfully stale thai I have bad
some opportunity of becoming acquainted with 'he rep
utation of the school and the merits and qualifications
of the Teacher.
1 bave never known a belter female school in any
place, and I believe that Mrs. Allen bss very few su lie
nors as a 1 eacher.
Her acquirements snd qualifications as an instructress
are believed to be of the first order, her experience
in leaching bas been considerable, her industry and at
tention to her school are unusual, her mo le of impart.
inr information and instruction is natural and snc.
cessful, and her manner of treatment and govern
ment is weil calculated to rain and secure the eon
hdence, respect and good will of those entrusted lo her
care, such is ner reputation among those who nave
had the best opportunity of being intimately acquainted
with ber mode f teaching and conducting her school.
I have never known any person who wss well sc.
q tainted with the School who did not form a very high
opinion of iu merits and those who have patronized it,
have awarded it to the moat unqualified expression 01
their confidence and approbation. I consider tbe
School worthy of the highest confidence and liberal
patronage.

WHERE the hair is observed to be growing thin,

only be recommended through the grosest ignorance, as

which carry nourishment to the bulb are obstructed,

A Woan to Paixnts All the mortality yon witness
among children and youth arises from a neglect of small

der to avoid taking medicine. It behooves parents
therefore, to watch them closely, aa they value tbeir

would never have any serious illness Aad what ia
Ir'11 r,n,p inconvenienes o guard oae'a
self and one'e children from disease, when we thereby
secure our constant happinessT A small dose of the Ys
