Tlie Old Washerwoman.
(ROM THS GERMAN Or CHAMISSO.
Among yon ines her hands have laden,
A laundress wilh white hair appears
Alert as many a youthful maiden,
Spite of her five and seventy years.
Bravely she won those white hairs, still,
Eating the hread hard toil obtain’d her,
And labouring truly to fulfil
The duties to which God ordained her.
Once she was young and full ot gladness,
She loved arid hoped, was woo'd and won ;
Then come the matron's cares, the sadness
No loving heart on earth may shun.
Three babes she bore her mate; she pray'd
Beside his sick bed, he was taken ;
She saw him in the chuich yard laid.
Yet kept her faith and hope unshaken.
The task her little ones of feeding
She met unfaltering from that hour;
She taught them thrift and honest breeding,
Her virtues were their worldly dow’r,
To seek employment one by one,
Forth with her blessing they departed,
And she was in the world alone,
Alone and old, but still high-hearted. .
With frugal forethought, self denying.
She gather'd coin, and flax she bought,
And many a night her 6pindle plying,
Good store of fine spun thread she wrought.
The thread was fashion’d in the loom ;
She brought it home, and calmly seated
To work wilh not a thought of gloom.
Her decent grave-clothes she completed.
She looks on them wilh fond elation.
They are her wealth, her treasure rare,
Her age’s pride and consolation,
Hoarded with all a miser’s care.
She done thesark each Sabbath day.
To hear the word that farieth never;
Well pleased she lays it then away,
Till she shall sleep in it forever.
Would that my spirit witness bore me
That, like this woman, f had done
The work my Maker put before me,
Duly from morn till set nf sun.
Would that life’s cup had been hv mn
Quaff'd in such uise and happy measure,
And that I too might finally
Look on my shroud with such meek pleasure.
Be active—he active—
Find something to do,
In diggings clam-bank,
Or tapping a shoe.
Don’t slop at the corners,
To drag out the day—
Be active—be active—
And work while you may.

By R. FURMAN,
THE exercises of this school will he res ums
ed on Monday next. Jl is the object ot
the teacher to communicate instruction m eith
er a part or the whole of the studies required for
admission into the Freshman class of the Uni
versity. These studjes, as may be seerf by ref
erence to the publication of the Faculty, are,
English Grammar. Arithmetic, and Geography,
Four Books of Ccesar’s Gallia War; I he Bu
colics of Virgil, and six books of the JCneid ;
Sallust, and several of Cicero’s Orations; Ja
cobs’ Greek Reader, and Lotin Prosody.
Particular attention is paid to Elementary
Principles; and Reading Writing, and Spell
ing, together with a cldity exercise in the Sa
cred Scriptures, are, by no means, neglected.
Small boys are not lobe considered as exclu
ded. On the contrary, it is desirable to have
them, in order that they may be taught, from
the first, according to the method most approv
ed by the subscriber.
The price of tuition is reduced to that of ele
ven dollars a quarter of eleven weeks each, to
be paid at the end of every quarter,at which time
a vacation of two weeks is usually allowed.
Q$r Young in n desirous of qualifying them
selves for teaching in the country, would be
greatly benefited by •spending a few months
with the subscriber.

University or Alabama, Jan 3. 1846.
Mr. Richard Furman, an Alumnus of ibis Uni
versify, and the principal of an elementary and
classical school in this vicinity, having requested of
die Faculty of the University, an expression of their
opinion in regard to his qualifications as a tench
er, the Faculty have no hesitation in saying, that
(hey regard him as at once able and faidifuj, and as
abundantly deserving the patronage of an intclligun
public.
Mr. Furman lias been for six years encaged in
his present employmefit ; and during this time, he
has sent a number ot students to ibis institution,
who, if not alwuys perfectly prepured for admission,
have, nevertheless, in no cose, brought from him
any testimonials which their attainments would not
justify. It is characteristic of him to 6tnte, with the
utmost frankness, to nil whom it may concern, what
lie believes t«» lie the progress made by the jupils
under his charge.
As an able, honest, and faithful teacher, the Fac
uhy of this University, therefore, very willingly say,
'hat they know no one moie deserving' than Mr.
Furman, of the confidence of the public.
By order of the Faculty.

Unireraity of Alabama, Jan. 15, 184G.
Mr. Furman—Sir. — By an ordinance of the
Board of Trustee* of the University, passed at thcij
session in Dec. 1813. the Faculty are authorized
to issue to the teacher or teachers of those candi
dates for admission, who, on the formation of each
succeeding class, shall appear to be best prepared
< ertificate to that effect, and an expression of the
approbation oftlte Faculty.
Among those who hove been received into th<
Class recently formed, three individuals have np
•cared to surpass the others in their acquaintance
with the preparatory sntdies ; and two of those are
from your School. In accordance, therefore, with
he Ordinance above cited, this certificate is issued
>n you, testifying to the superior attainments of
vour pupils over the mass of those applying for a
mission to the University.

ALABAMA INSTITUTION,
For llio FrliK'nlion of the liliud,
AT TUSCALOOSA.
rjpiflS 1 nstituiion commenced its second ses
JL sion the a cond Monday in March, and
the operations of the Institution have been very
much embarrassed on account ot the absence
of the regular agent, and the losses in subscrip
tions, iStc. It gives us great pleasure to slate
that the friends of the Institution have not for
saken it, but have liberally co-operated with
the Principal in liquidating its debt, and making
preparatory arrangements to commence tbe
second session. 1 he second session will end
the last of July, allowing the pupils to spend -
August and September at their homes. Ten
pupils will be instructed at present, and it is
believed the school will gradually increase as it
becomes more and more extensively known.
As this Institution is intended loembiace all
the branches taught in academies for seeing
persons, the Principal has engaged the ser
vices of teachers of experience and thoroughly
acquainted with all the branches in this In
stitution.
Mr. T. S. NEWELL, a graduate of the ,
Ohio Institution for the lilind, will act as Pro
fessor ofVocnl and Instrumental Music.
Mr.' II. CHAPIN, as Piofessor of the Arts
and Scibnces.
Instruction will be given as soon as practi
cable, to a select class by the Principal in
Ancient and Modern History, Literature, &c.
The Teachers just mentioned, devote their
services to the Institution at a very moderate
salary being actuated more by the interest they
feel for thj blind, than any pecuniaiy consid
eration.
The following course of study and regulations
have been adopted tor the present session :
The Scholars are required to rise at the
ringing of the bell at half past 5 o’clock in the
Morning ; from (i to 7, instruction in Vocal
Music ; breakfast nt 7 ; prayers immediately
after breakfast; from that time till 8, the girls
are engaged in arranging the rooms; fiom
quarter past 8 to quarter past 6, Arithmetic;
Irnm half-past 9 to half.past 10, English Gram
mat; three quarters past 10 to three quarters
past 11, reading th • raised print ; from 12 to 1
Geographv and Writing; dine at 1. In the
Afternoon the girls arc engaged in leorniug to
make fancy works : instruction on the,Piano, and
raised print are attended to till 6 o'clock P. M.,
at winch time the pupils take supper: prayets
immediately after supper. Pupils are expected
to attend church, and are taken to wha'ever
church they wish to attend in the city. From
2 to 4, on the sabbath, the pupils will be as
sembled to hear reading of sacred history, or
a lecture from some interesting passuge ol
scripture, calculated to direct their thoughts to
a perusal of the bible.
The Principal would here slate that the In
stitution is entirely dependent for support on
individual contributions; notwithstanding this,
if its pal ronage should be equate that received
during the lust year, there will be no difficulty
lit going on ; and us out agent, whose family
Inis been ill, is expected sc-on, he will be re
quested to visit all the counties in the State,
for the purpose of laying the subject before
the citizens generally.
The cost to those who are able to pay will be
$1")0 per year; and as many indigent blind,
will be received and educated ns the funds re
ceived will stippoi t, we request the editors of
ihe did. rent papers who may read this adver
tisement, to insert it in their columns.
The Principal of this Institution would be
obliged to persons having children or relatives
blind, to write immediately, stating the age,
capacity, circumstances, &c , wis. mg to re
ceive a situation.

DR. SPENCER’S
Vegetable Tonic and restorative
BITTERS.
Health—“ The. poor man's riches
— The rich man’s' bliss ”
TI1E Piopnetor of tbi9 Medicine, actuated
by a d At ire to benefit bis fellow beings,
offers to the Public the result of an extensive
practice and a thorough investigation of the
laws which govern the tinman system.
He is well aware of the odium which is at
tached by Physicians to all remedies, the com
position of which they are not acquainted with,
yet he is ngt satisfied to withhold this valuable
medicine knowing that it will stand the test of
experience, and that those who use it, will not
have occasion to complain that it has not bene
Rtted them. He is fully satisfied, that these
Ritters require only to become known, to be
universally appreciated and extensively used.
For it cannot be denied by those who have be
come acquainted with their singular virtues,
hat they possess a pre-eminence over all others
vow in use, for the diseases which they profess
lo cure.
In proof of their extraordinary curative pro
perties, upwards of One Thousand Certif
icates, from the most respectable Citizens in
lifferent sections ofthe Union, might be appen
led ; but the high reputation which my Vegcta
)le Pills, (known as Spencer's Vegetable
Pillsj have acquired, is all sufficient to recom
mend my Bitters to the Bpeciul notice ofthe
i filleted.
i'ney are purely Vegetable unci muj. be i„
ten with perfect safety by all ages and sexes
n youthful, adult and declining life.
They Cure Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plaints by cleansing the stomach and bowels
if every thing injurious lo health, regulating
he various secretions ; and by their manifest
ind sensible action upon the chyle, they purify
;he blood, invigorate the circulation, strengthen
the digestive organs, and produce a healthy ac
tion, throughout the system ;—Loss of Appe
tite, Heartburn, Headache,.Flatulency, l’alpita
tion of the Heart, Restlessness, III Temper,
Languor and Melancholy, which are the usual
symptoms of Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint,
will all disappear as a natural consequence ol
its cure.
They not only Cure Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, but they have almost a miraculous
effect in curing Sick Headache, and all Ner
vous Affections. They are peculiarly adapted
to remove all these complaints, not by consiant
ly physicing, hut by strengthen.ng the system.
No greater mistake can be made than to sup
pose that Dyspepsia, or any other disease ari
sing from debility, can be cured by frequent for
ced action on the bowels with purgative medi
cines, without having a proper tome to^accom
pany them. When these complaints exist, the
system is already loo weak, and every addition
al dcse tends to make it more so. Spencer'*
Vegetable 1’ii.i.s possess tonic and restora
tive properties independent of their purgative
effects, and are believed to be the only purga
tive Pill in existence that possess these impor
tant properties. Spencer’s Bitters also ac
ting as a still more effective tonic and restora
tive, strengthen the digestive organs, and as
sist them to perform their functions as nature
designed. Hence they are found to be effica
cious al-o in those Diseases peculiar to Fe
males, which arise more frequently from weak
ness than any other cause. TJie aged and in
firm of both sexes, ami persons of sedentary
habits prone to costiveness, and those who have
suffered from loss of appetite, have experienced
great benefit Irom them. In Convalescence
from Fevers, and other acute disordeis, they |
restore strength ; and individuals afflicted with
Nervous Headache and other derangements of
the nervous function have been entirely cured
by this medicine
In Fever and Ague and Uiiills and Fever,
they surpass every thing known in rooting out
ilie last seeds of tins worst of maladies. The
Proprietor lias known hundreds of cases, from
six lo t.velve moulds standing, who had used
almost every ihing they could think of, hut
were cured only for a few days at a time, when
the chill would again teturn, but who have been
entirely cured by using this Medicine, and have
declared it to be the most sovereign and last
ing remedy I bey evey heard of. In tact the
Proprietor lias never known them to fail curing
the very worst cases when used according to
the directions.
lsy removing the local intlarnmation trom Ihe
muscles und ligaments of the joints, these Pills
and Billers have been known to cure Ji/icuma
lism, permanently in two weeks.
For Worms, titty are superior to any of the
common vermifuge medicines, as they prevent
that cold state of the stomach, and dislodge
from 1he bowels all the slimy mutter to which
these creatures adhere. Aiso Asthma, by re.
lieving the lungs and air vessels from the mucus
which even slight colds will occasion, which it
not removed becomes hardened and produce!'
this disagreeable diseose. Diarhcea, Dysinte
ry, and Cholic, by removing all those bad hum
ore by which these complaints ate occasioned,
and by their singular action on the secretions os
the mucous membrane. Scrofula, Scurvy, VI
ctrt and Inveterate Sores, by the power they
evert in purifying the blood and all Ihe springe
and channels of life. Scorbutic Eruptions and
Bad Complexion by their ulterative effect upon
Ihe fluids that feed the skin, the morbid state of
which occasions all eruptive complaints ; Sal
low, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complex
ions. The use of tlie Pills and Bitters for a
very short time, will make an entire cure rJ
Erysijielat, Salt Rheum, and a striking improve
ment in the clearness of the skin. The worst
cases of Common Colds and Influenza will moat
always yield to one or two doses of the Pills.
And as a remedy for that distressing malady,
the Piles, too much cannot be said in their fa
vor, for by using this medicine in very mode
rate doses, it has been known to cure the worst
ot cutes, and that too, of those who had tried
almost every other remedy that could be pre
scribed within the whole compass of the Mates
rioj ftlediem.
Females who value good health, should nevs
er be without Spencer’s Pills and Bitters, a
they purify the blood, remove obstructions, and
give the skin a beautiful, clear and healthy ap
pearance.
Elderly Persons make it a rule to take
them 2 or !) times a week, by which they re.
move the causes that produce disease, preserve
their health, and keep off the infirmities of
age.
Heads of Families should alwas keep this
Medicine in the house, as a remedy in cases of
sudden illness, for by their immediate adminis
tration, Cholera Morbus, Diarrhoea, Cholic,
Gout in the Stomach, Cramps, Spasms, Feiers,
and other alarming complaints, which often
profe fatal, may be speedily cured or preven
ted.
All that is required of those who use 'this
Medicine is to use it strictly according to the
directions. It is not by any tiling the proprie
tor himself may say in their favor that he hopes
gain credit. It is alone by the result of a
fair trial.

VEGETABLE FEVER & AGUE, AHD AUTI-FEVER
PILLS
The following certificate was given by three
highly respectable Planters, near Fife Post
Office, Talladega County, Ala., one of whom
had used twelve boxes of the pills in his own
family.
This is to certify, that we have used Dr. Hull’s
Fever and Ague Pills in our families in several
cases of’ Fever, and Chills and Fevet ; and
their administration has been attended with
complete success. In no case have thev failed
to produce the desired effect, when used accor
ding to directions. We think they are a good
Pill, and would cheerfully recommend them to
all persons subject to Fever, and Chills and
Fever.
Given tinder our hands :

Dr. C. E. Hull : Dear Sir—Your Fever
and Ague Pills, left with us last July, by your
agent, were disposed of very 6oon after we re
ceived them. We could no doubt have dispo
sed of three hundred boxes, if we hud them, as
it was uncommonly sick in this vicinity last
season. So far as we could learn, (and we made
pai-.icular inquiry,) they did not fail in curing a
single case, when used according to directions.
Some of our most respectable planters used
them in preference to Sappington’s Pills. Please
send us two hundred and twenty-four boxes,
and very much oblige, respectfully yours,

New Terms OH Advertising.
The accumulation on our books of debts due
us in other counties, and in other States ; anp
the great difficulty attendant upon their collec
tion—to 6ay nothing ot the'tax'thereby imposed
on us, and the losses we afe forced to sustain,
by many of our distant debtors neglecting to
send us the amounts they may severally owe—
forces on us the necessity of adopting a mode
of computing the cost of publications to be
made in our columns, which can be easily under
stood, and which will enable our patrons to en
close, with their advertisements, the money to
p.iy for them. Our new terms will not vary,
materially, from the old ones ; and where there
is any change it will be found to be in favor
of the advertiser :—For example, we propoee
to make 80 words, or less, one square ; more
than 80, and less than 160 two squares; idore
Ilian 160, and less than 240 three squares, dtc.
Under the old system the square averages about
75 words.
The price of advertising will not be changed;
the change in the mode of computing the quan
tity of matter in advertisements, is adopted ape.
cially with a view to relieve ourself from tho
evils of the credit system.
These rules, we propose, shall apply in all
cases where the persons making publication re
side out of this city, except they be Sheriffs,
Coroners, Registers in Chancery, Clerks or
Court, or other public officers.
Where we open an account with officers of
court and others of that class, we reserve to our
self tho right to charge'iheold^pri coo.
