Poor little lady ! she lies With the light gone out of her eyes, But her features stiil wear that soft Gray meditative expression, Which you must Slave noticed oft, And admired too, at confession. How siiiutly she looks, and how meek! Though this be the chamber of death, I fancy I feel her breath As I kiss her on the cheek. With that pensive religious face, She has gone to a holier place ! And I hardly appreciated her, Her praying, fasting, confessing, Poorly, I owe, I mated her; I thought her too cold, and rated her For her endless image caressing. Too saintly lor me by far, As pure and as cold as a star, Not fashioned for kissing and pressing, But made for a heavenly crown. Ay, father, let us go down, But lirst, if you please, your blessing! II. Wine ? No ? Come, come, you must ! You'll bless it with your prayers, And quaff a cup, I trust, To the health of the saint up stairs?- My heart is aching so ! And I feci so weary and sad, Through the blow that I have had, You'll sit, Fru Giacamo ? My friend ! (and a friend I rank you Forhe sake oi that saint,) nay, nay i Here's thewiae. as you love me, stay! 'Tis Moutepulciano ! Thank you. III. Heigho! 'Tis now six summers Since I won that angel and married her: I was rich, not old, and carried her Off in the face of all comers. So fresh, yet so brimming with soul! A tenderer morsel, I swear, Never made the dull black coal Of a monk's eye glitter and glare. Your pardon ! nay, keep your chair ! I wander a little, but mean No offence to the gray gaberdine! Of the church, Fra Giacamo, I'm a faithful upholder, you know But (humor nie! ) she was as sweet As the saints in your convent windows, So gentle, so meek, so discreet, She kuew not what lust does or sin does. I'll coutc-fs, tbonc'j, before we were one, I d -i ined her lesj saintly, and thought The blood i;i her veins had caught Some natural warmth from the sun. I was wrong. I was blind as a bat, Brute th u I was, how I blundered ! Though such a mistake as that Night have occurred as pat To ii'nety-nine men in a hundred, Yourself, for example? you've seen her? Spite her modest and pious demeanor, And the manners so nice and precise, Seemed there not color and light, Bright motion and appetite, That were scarcely consistent with ice? Externals implying, you see. Internals less asimly than human? Pray speak, for between you and me You're not a bad judge of a woman ! IV. . A jest, but a jest! . . . Very true: 'Tis hardly becoming to jest, And that saint up stairs at rest, Her soul may be listening, too! Well may your visage turn yellow, I was always a brute of a fellow! To think how I doubted and doubted, Suspected, grumbled at, flouted, That golden-haired angel, and solely Because she was zealous and holy! Noon and night and morn She devoted herself to piety; Not that she seemed to scorn Or dislike her husband's society; But the claims of her mid superseded All that I asked for or needed, And her thoughts were far awaj From the level of sinful clay, Aud she trembled if earthly matters Interlcrred with her tier and po.lers. Poor dove, she so fluttered in Hying Above the dim -. upors of hell Bent on self-sauetifying That she never thought of trying To save her husband as well. And while she was duly elected For place in the heavenly roll, I (brute that I was!) suspected Her Hii'iiner of saving her soul. So, half for the fun of the thing, What did I (blasphemer!) but lling On my shoulders the gown of a monk Whom I managed lor that very day To get safely out of the way And seat me, half sober, half drunk, With the cowl thrown over my face, In the father confessor's place. Eheu bcttefucitc In her orthodox sweet simplicity, With that pensive gray expression, She sighfully knelt at confession, While I bit my ips till they bled, And dug my nails in my hand, And heard v ith averted head What I'd guessed and could understand. Each word was a serpent's f ting, But wrapt in my gloomy gown, I sat, like a marble thing, As she told me all ! Sit down ! More wine, Fra Giacamo! - r i i - f iove mc ! No ? What, have these dry lips drank So deep of the sweets of pleasure Sub row, but quite without measure Thai Moutepulciano tastes rank? Come, drink ! 't will bring the streaks Of crimson back to your cheeks ; Come, drink again to the saint Whose virtues you loved to paint, 1 Who, stretched on her wifel3' bed, , AViUi Vne tender gray expression You used to admire at confession, J Lic& poisoned, overhead ! VI. Sit .till, or by heaven, you die ! Fare to face, soul to soul, you and I H?ve settled accounts, in a line PI usant fj ihion, over our wine. Sir not, and seek not to fly, Nay, whether or not, ;you are mine! Thank Moutepulciano for giving Your death in such delicate sips; 'T is not every monk ceases In ing Willi so pleasant a taste on his lips ; But, lest Moutepulciano unsurely should kiss, Take this ! and this! and this! VII. Coyer him over, Pietro, And bury him in the court below, Yon car. be secreet, lad, I know ! And, hark you, then to the convent go, Bid every bell of the convent toll, And the monks say mass for mistress' soul. BQBEKT BUCHANAN. United' States Laws. yAVVS OF THE UNITED STATES.

" : ; COMPOSED OF IODIDE OF POTASSIUM," with the compound -concentrated fluid extract ui" valuable medicinal roots and herbs. Prepared by William H. Gkkoo, M D., Graduate of the -College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York ; formerly Assistant Physician in the Blackwell's Island Hospitals. Constitution Lfe Syrup has Produced a Revolution -jC in Medicine. . What may seem almost incredible is, that many diseases hitherto considered hopelessly incurable are frequently cured in a few days or weeks ; and we cheerfully invite the investigations of the libe ral minded nnd scientific to cures which have no parallel at the present day. During the past five years we have contended with obstacles and overcome opposition as hercu lean as were ever encountered by any reformers. Rapidity of Care. Some say, " Your cures are too quick," while others doubt their permanence, and think that diseases can only be cured by the " slow, remu nerative process of Nature." This is our reply : In health, the bodv, like a well-balanced scale, is in a state of equilibrium. But when, from any cause, down goes one side of the scale, we have the effect of disease. What is requisite, is to restore the normal balance of the scale. Constitution Life Syrup Is a positive and Specific remedy for all diseases originating from an IMPURE STATE OF THE BLOOD, aud for all (hereditary) Diseases trans mitted from PaiAnt to Child. Paralysis. It is so universally admitted that Constitution Life Syrup is the only effective means of restora tion in the various forms of Paralysis, that we need not reiterate that it is emphatically the great Life-giving Power. Dyspepsia. Indigestion, Weight at Stomach, Flatulence, Liv er Complaint, want of Appetite, Bad Health, Constipation, BUliousness. - 2 . Scrofula, 2 ' " Struma, Kings Evil, Glandular Swellings, Erysip elas,' Ulceration, Salt Rheum. This taint (hereditary and acquired,) filling life with untold misery, is, by all usual medical reme dies, incurable. Rheumatism. (Arthritis,) Lumbago, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Gout, Ticolobeaux. If there is any disease in which the Constitution Life Syrup is a sovereign, it is in Rheumatism and its kindred affections. The most intense pains are almost instantly alleviated, enormous swell ings are reduced. Cases, chronic or vicarious, of twenty or forty years standing, have been cured by us. Constitution Life Syrup Purges the system entirely from all the evil effects of Mercury, removing tiie Bad Breath and curing the Weak "Joints and Rheumatic Pains which the use of Calomel is sure to produce. It hardens Spongy Gums, and secures the Teeth as firmly as ever. Constitution Life Syrup Eradicates, root arid branch, all Eruptive Diseases of the skin, like Ulcers, Pimples, Blotches aud all other difficulties of this kind, which so much dis figure the outward appearance of males and fe males, often making them a disgusting object to themselves aud their friends. For all forms of Alcekative Diseases, either of the Nose, Throat, Tongue, Forehead or Scalp, no rented v has ever proved its equal. Moth Patches upon the female face, dependiug upon a diseased action of the Liver, are very un pleasant to the young wife and mother. A few bottles of Constitution Life Syrup will correct the secretion and remove the deposit, which is di rectly under the skin. Diseases of the Liver, giving rise to Languor, Dizziuess, Indigestion, W cak Stomach, or an ul cerated or cancerous condkaon of that organ, ac companied with burning or other unpleasant symptoms, will be relieved by the use of Constitution Life Syrup. - As a General Blood Purifying Agent, the Life Syrup stands unrivalled by any preparation of the world. The Rich and Poor are liable to the same dis ease. Nature and Science have made the Consti tution Life Syrup for the benefit of all. Pure Blood Produces healthy men and women; and if the constitution is neglected in youth, disease aud early death is the result. Do not delay when the means are so near at hand, and within the reach of all. Constitution Life Syrup Is the Poor man's friend, and the Rich man's blessing. WM. H. GREGG,-M.

Congress Water Is a cathartic, alterative and tonic, and is a val uable remedy for affections of the Liver aud Kid neys, Dyspepsia, Gout, Chronic Constipation and Cutaneous diseases. Is a most powerful preven- . five of the Fevers and Bilious Complaints, so prevalent in warm climates.

It is an almost sure cure for Scrofula, and, the most agravati d forms of Dyspepsia. As a preventive and cure for all BUllous. Derangements it stands unrivalled. Columbian Water Is a tonic and diuretic of a highly beneficial character, and is a positive remedy for Diabetes, Gravel, Calculus, Irritation and Inflammation of the Kidneys and Bladder, and has most singularly active effects in restoring these organs when de bilitated by long disease.
