The following poetic effusion is the atesl we
I eve seen from the gif ed pen of the Ex-Presi
dent of Texas. It was taken, indeed, we might
say from the Album of the young lady to whom
it was addressed, in the hand writing of the
author:
To ID lea * ♦ *
BY MIRADEAll B. LAMA It.
O, is it not a pity now.
That I am growing old—
That time has written on my brow,
So legibly and hold,
What every glancing eye may see.
And tolly cannot hido,
That I am now, of fifty three,
Upon the shady side 1
Those happy days, so gay and bright,
f never can recall,
When beauty was a great delight,
And love was all in all.
Soon doth the spring of life depart,
And when it hath declined,
A hoary head and wintry heart,
Is all it leaves behind.
Yet, lady fair, to whom I pour,
This light and laughing lay.
If guilty time could but restore,
The gifts it stole away,
1 soon would breathe a softer tale,
A more devoted rhime,
And (), if passion might prevail,
Thou shouldsl be wholly mine.
Behold imbeded in thy ring,
That rich Brazilian stone,
Thy fairy hand illumining,
With lustre all its own,
So should my heart encircle thee,
And thou implanted there,
My pure and sparkling gem should lie,
To light me everywhere.

THE exercises of this schooi will be resilin'
ed on Monday next. It is the object of
the teacher to communicate instruction in eith
er a part or the whole of the studies required for
admission into the Freshman class of the Uni
versity. These studies, as may be seen by ref
erence to the publication of the Faculty, are,
English Grammar. Arithmetic, and Geography,
Four Boults of Cesar’s Gallia War; I lie Bu
colics of Virgil, and six books of the -'Enctd ;
Sallust, and several of Cicero’s Orations ; Ja
cobs’ Greek Reader, and Latin Prosody.
Particular attention is paid to Elementary
Principles; and Reading Writing, and Spell
ing, together with a daily exercise in the Sa
cred Scriptures, are, by no means, neglected.
Small boys are not to be 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.
1 he 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.
03~ Yonng men desirous of qualifying them'
selves for teaching in the country, would be
greatly benefited by spending a few months
with the subscriber.

the Faculty of the University, on expression of their
opinion in regard to his qualifications as a teach*

Mr. Furman lias been for six year* engaged in

has sent a number of students to this institution,
who, if not always perfectly prepared for admission,
have, nevertheless, in no ense, brought from him
any testimonials which their attainments would not
justify. It is charactcriaticof him to state, with the
u'most frankness, to nil whom it may concern, what
he believes to he the progress mode by the j upila

As an able, honest, and faithful teacher, the Foe.

ALABAMA INSTITUTION,
For llic Education of the Blind,
AT TUSCALOOHA.
THIS 1 nstituiion commenced its second ses
sion the second Monday in March, and
the operations of the Institution have been very
much embarrassed on account of the absence
ot the regular agent, and the losses in subscrip
tions, iSic. It gives us great pleasure to state
that the friends of the Institution have not for
saken it, but have liberajly co-operated with
the Principal in liquidating its debt, and making
preparatory arrangements to commence the
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 to embrace alt
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 Blind, will act as Pro
fessor of Vocal and Instrumental Music.
Mr. 11. CHAPIN, as Ptofessor of the Arts
and Sciences.
Instruction will be given as soon as practi
cable, to a Helecl class by the Principal in
Ancient and Modern History, Literature, Sic.
The Teachers just mentioned, devote their
services to the Institution at a very moderate
salary being actuated more by the interest they
feel for th3 blind, than any pecuniary 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 6 to 7, instruction in Vocal
Music; breakfast at 7; prayers immediately
after breakfast; from tba: time till 8, the girl's
ore engnged in arranging the rooms; fiom
quarter post 8 to quarter past 6, Arithmetic ;
Irom halt-past 9 to tiult-past It), Englisti Gram
mat; three; quarters past 10 to three quarters
past 11, reading the raised print ; from 12 to 1
Geogruphy sod Writing; dine at 1. In the
Afternoon the girls are engaged in learniug to
make fancy works: instruction on the,Piano, and
raised print are attended to till 6 o’clock P. M.,
at which time the pupils take supper : prayers
immediately after supper. Pupils are expected
to attend church, and are taken to whatever
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 passage ol
scripture, calculated to direct their thoughts to
a perusal of the bible.
The Principal would here state that the In
stitution is entirely dependent for support on
individual contributions; notwithstanding this,
if its patronnge should be eqnato that received
during the last year, there will be no difficulty
ill going on; and as out agent, whoso family
has been ill, is expected soon, 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 coat to those who arc able to pay will be
gift!) per year; and as many indigent blind,
will be received and educated aa the funds re
ceived will support, we request the editors of
iHe ditbrent papers who may read this adver
tisement, lo insert it in their columns.
I he Principal of this Institution would be
obliged to persons having children or relatives
blind, lo write immediately, staling the age,
; capacity, circumstances, &c, wishing to ic
| ccive a situation.

DR. SPENCER’S
Vegetable Tonic and restorative ■
BITTERS.
Health—“ The. poor mini’s riches
— The rich man’s bliss ”
THE Proprietor of this Medicine, actuated
by a desire to benefit his fellow beings,
offers to the Public the result of an extensive
practice and a thorough investigation of the
laws which govern the human system.
lie 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 not 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,
fitted them. He is fully satisfied, tlmt these
Bitters 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,
that they poasess a pre-eminence over all others
now in use, for the diseases which they profess
to cure.
In proof of their extraordinary curative pro
perties, upwards of One Thousand Certif
icates, from the moat respectable Citizens in
different sections of the Union, might be appen
ded ; but the high reputation which my Vegeta
ble Pills, (known as Spencer’s Vegetable
Pills) have acquired, is all sufficient to recom
mend my Bitters to the special notice of the
afflicted.
They are purely Vegetable and may be ta
ken with perfect safety by all ages and sexes
in youthful, adult and declining life.
They Cure Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plaints by cleansing the stomach and bowels
of every thing injurious to health, regulating
the various secretions ; and by their manifest
and sensible action upon the chyle, they purify
the blood, invigorate the circulation, strengthen
the digestive organs, and produces healthy ac
tion, throughout the system ;—Iaiss of Appe.
the. Heartburn, Headache, Flatulency, Palpita
tion ot’ Ih« 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 DvspepbIa and Liver
Complaint, but they have almost a miraculous
effect in curing Sick Headache, and all NV’.'
vous Affections. They are peculiarly adapted
to remove all these complaints, not bv constant
ly physicing, but by strengthen ng the system.
No greater mistake can he 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 tonic to^accom
pany them. When these complaints exist, the
syalem is already too weak, and every addition
al dcse lends to make it more so. Spencer’s
Vegetable Pills possess tonic and rcstora
tive properties independent of their purgative
effects, and are believed to be the only purga
tive Pill in existence that poetess 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 also in those Diseases peculiar to Fe
males, which arise more frequently from weak
ness than any other cause. The aged and in
firm of both sexes, and persona of sedentary
habits prone to costivrness, and those who have
suffered from loss of appetite, have experienced
great benefit from them. In Convalescence
from Fevers, snd other acute disorders, they
restore strength ; and individuals afflicted with
Nervous Headache and other derangements of
the nervous function have been entirely cured
byttiis medicine
in 1‘ ever anu Arms and Lhills and Fever,
they surpass every thing known in rooting out
the last seeds of tins worst of maladies. The
Proprietor has known hundreds of cases, from
six to twelve months standing, who had used
almost every thing they could think of, but
were cured only for a few days at a time, when
the chill would again leturn, but who have been
entirely cured by using this Medicine, and have
declared it to be the most sovereign and last
ing remedy they cvcy heard of. In tact the
Proprietor has never known them to fall curing
the very woist cases when used according to
the directions.
lly removing the local inflammation from the
muscles and ligaments of the joints, these Pi'ls
and Bitters have been known to cure Rheuma
tism, permanently in two weeks.
For Worms, they are superior to any of the
common vermifuge medicines, as they prevent
that cold 6late of the stomach, and dislodge
from the bowels all the slimy mutter to which
these creatures adhere. Also jfsthma, by re.
lieving the lungs and air vessels from the mucus
which even slight colds will occasion, which if
not removed becomes hardened and producef
this disagreeable disease. Diarhaa, Dysinle
ry, and Cholic, by removing all those bad hum
ors by which these complaints are occasioned,
and by their singular action on the secretions os
the mucous membrane. Scrofula, Scurvy, Ul
cers and Inveterate Sores, by the power they
evert in purifying the blood and all the springs
and channels of life. Scorbutic Eruptions and
Bad Complexion by their alterative effect upon
the fluids that feed the skin, the morbid stato of
which occasions all eruptive complaints; Sal
low, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Ctmplex.
ions. Tho use of the Pills and Bitters for a
I very short time, will make nn entire cure o
Erysipelas, Salt Rheum, and a striking improve
ment in the clearness of the skin. The worst
cases of Common Colds and Influenza will most
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 lias been known to cure the worst
of cases, and that too, of those who had tried
almost every other remedy that could be pre*
scribed within the whole compass of the Males
riai Medina!.
Females who value pood health, should nevs

pearance.
Elderly Persons make it a rule to lake
them 2 or 3 times a week, by which they re
move the causes that produce disease, preserve
their health, and keep off the infirmities of
age.
H eads os Families should alwas keep this
Medicine in ths bouse, as a remedy in cases of
sudden illness, for by their immediate adminis
tration, Cholera Morbus, Diarrhxa, Cholic,
Oout in the Stomach, Cramps, Spasms, Feiers,
and other alarming complaints, which often
profe fatal, may be speedily cured or pravrn
ted.
All that is required of those who uss 'this
Medicine is to use it strictly according to the
directions. It is not by any thing 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, AMO AMTI-FEVER
PILLS
The following certificate was given by three
highly respectable Planters, near Fife Poat
Office, Talladega County, Ala., one of whom
had used IweWe boxes of the pilla 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 Fever ; and
their administration Ima been attended with
complete success. In no case have they 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 persona subject to Fever, and Chills and
Fever.

Dr- C. E. Hull: Dear Sir—Your Fever
and Ague Pills, left with ua last July, by your
agent, were disposed of very soon after we re
ceived them. VVe could no doubt have dispo
sed of three hundred boxes, if we had them, as
it was uncommonly sick in this vicinity last
season. So far as we could learn, (and we made
particular 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,
RIX & KENDALL.

New Terms of Advertising-.
The accumulation on our books of debts duo
us in other counties, and in other States ; anp
the great difficulty attendant upon their collec
tion—to say nothing of the tax thereby imposed
on us, and the losses we are 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 onoeiu
stood, and which will enable onr patrons teen11
close, with their advertisements, the money to
pay for them. Our new terms will not vary*
materially, from the old ones; and where there1
is any change it will be found to bain fjtver'
of the advertiser :—For example, we propose
to make 80 words, or less, one square ; mote
than 80, and less than 160 two squares; mere’
than 160, and less than 240 three squares, dec.
Under the old system the square averages about
75 words.
The price of advertising will not be changed;
the change in the mode or computing the quan
tity of matter in advertisements, is adopted ape
cially with a view to relieve ourself ftem the
evils of the credit system.
These rules, we propose, shall apply in tag
cases where the persons making publication!*-1
side out of this city, except they be SHeriflbi''
Coroners, Registers in Chancery, Clerks or '
Court, or other public officers.
Where we open an account with officers ti
court and others of that clata,«re reatwa to o*f c
silt the right to charge the old prides;
