THE FLIGHT OF TIME,
Re wave (wllews wave on the ocean's shore ,
Do breng weth a grand and solemn roar;
So moment ou moment, and day by day,
W baste 10 the spirit lend away.
As the seasons roll on and their changes bring,
A change 1s produoced in every thing;
The carpet of green and the bloom of the rose,
Are lost in the whiteness of winter's suows.
As youth follows age in the foot steps of time,
Aud peal follows peal in the werry thl'- chine,
As sand follows sand "ull the glass bas run dry,
Aund stars fade away from the vault of the sky.
As pulse follows pulse, and ax night follows day,
So we haste from the region of shudews away.
Thus the meek and lowly, the mighty aad brave,
Suceessful follow some friend to the gruve

ETHAN SPIKES FIRST AND LAST
VISIT TO PORTLAND.
* Portland is the ell darndest place I ever
seed, I wae down there in 'B2, t¢ see a little
about m¥ goin® to the Legislatoor, and sucha
rum time us I had, you never heer'd tell on.
Did 1 ever tell you abeut the ice cream scrape
1 bhad I
We answered in the negative, and he re
sumed.
“Wall,, I'd bin down thar, two or three
days, pokin' about in every hole an’ the't I'd
seed every thing thar wasto beseed, Butone
day towards sun down I wae going by a shop
in Middle etreet that leoked wonderfully slick
—there was all mepner of candy am' pepper
miots an’ jessamints an' whatvots at the win
dows. An' then thar war signs with gold
letters on to them hangin' round the door,
telling’ how they sold €oda, Mead, an' Ice
,cream thar. 1 says to myself, I have heern a
?oud deal about thes "ere ice cream, an' now
"Il be darned if 1 won't see what they'r made
of. So I puts my hands into my pockers an’
walked in kinder carcless an' says to a chap
etanding behing the counter— .
“Do you keep un[v“{ce cream herel”
“ Yes sir,” says « *how much 'll you
have I
* I considered a minit en't, saye I—a pint
sir.”
The young feller's face swelled out, an’ he
liked to kave laughed right out, but arter a
while he asked—
“ lid you say a pint, sir?"
“Sartin’ says I, **but p,raps you don't re
tail, so 1 don't mind takin’ a quart.”
Wall, don't you think the feller snorted
vight out. Tell wer what, it made me feel
sort o'pison, an' I give bLim a look that made
him look sober in about a minit, an' when 1
clinched my fist an’ looked so at him, (here
Mr. Spike favored us with a most diabolical
expression) he hauled in hkis herns about the
quickest, au' hanted we a pint of the stuft as
perdite as could be. 'Whall, | tasted a mouth
tul of it, an’ found it as cool as the north side
of Bethel hill in January. I'd half a mind to
spit it out, but just then I seed the confection
er chap grinping behind the door which riz
my spunk. Gall sinash it all, thinks 1, 111
not let that white livered mowvkey think I'm
afeared—l 1l eat the darned stuff il it (reezes
my inards. 1 tell yer what, I'd rather skined
a bear or whipped a wild cat, bnt I went it,—
I eat the whole in about a minit,
“ Wall, in about a quarter of an hour I be
gan to feel kinder gripy about here,” contin
ued Ethaw pointing to the lewer parts of his
stomach, “ an' kept on feelin’ no better very
fast, till at last it seemed as though I'd got a
steam ingen sawin' shingles in me. ] sot
down on a cheer an’ bent mysel( up like a nut
cracker, thinkin' I'd grio ao’ bear it; but |
enldn't set still=l twigted and squirmed a
bout like an angle worm on a hook, till at last
the chap as 'gin me the cream, who had been
lookin' on snickerin' says te me,
* Mister,” says he, * what ails yer "
“ Ails me " says 1. * that ere duwed stuff
of your'n is freezin’ up my daylights,” says 1.
* You eat too much,” says he.
1 tell yer 1 dido',” screamed 1. 1
koow what's a'nufl an' what's too much with
out askin' you, an' if you don't lcave off
spickerin’ 'l spile your face,
He cottoped right down, an' said he didn't
mean auy huet, on’ acked me il I Ladn't bet
ter take some gin. 1 told him I would. So
1 took a purty good horn and lelt the shop.
& Arter 1 got out,” continued Ethan, ¢ 1
felt better for a minit or so, but 1 hadn't gone
fur afore the grips took me agin', so I went
lnto another shop an’ took some mere gin;
then I set down on the Siate House eteps
and there I sot an’ sot, but dida't feel darned
a mite better. 1 begun to think | was going
to kick the bucket, an' then | thought of {ath
er an' maother, an' of old Spanker—that's
father's hoss—an' when 1 thought that 1
should never sce "em agin' 1 fairly blubbered.
But then | happened to look np an'seea doz
en boys grinin® an’ larfin® at me’ I'll tell yer
what, it riz my dander,—that had got down
Lelow nero—rite up agin. | sprung at 'em
like a wild cat hollerin’ outthat I'd shake
their taiuel gizzards out, a'n the way the lit
tle devils scampered was a caution to nobody.
Buat after "citement of the race was over, 1 {elt
wus agin' an' [ eouldn't help groanin' an’
screechin' as 1 went along.
At last 1 thought I'd go to the theatre, hut
afore | got there the grips got so strong that |
had to lay down and boller. Arter u while |
got up aud went into a shop and eat half a
dollar’s wuth of Bled isters with four pickled
cowcumbers, and wound up with a glass of
braudy. Then I went into the theatre and
eeed the play, but I felt so tarpally that 1
couldn’t see any fun in "em, for I don't think
the isters and the cowcumbers dua me any
good. I sot down, laid down, an’ stoed up,
but still it went on gripe, gripe. | groaned all
the time, av' once tn a while I was oblecged
to screech kinder easy. Every body stared
at me an' somebody called out—**turn him
out !" once or twice. But at lagt just as the i
pigger Orthello was going to put the piller ou
his wils fuce to smother her, there cum such
a twinge through me, that I really thought [
was bustia’ up an’ | yelled out—* Oh dear!
oh sissors!"" so loud that the old theatre rung
agin'. Such arow you never seed ; the nig- {
ger dropped the piller, andgDeateronomy—or
what you call her there—his wife, jumped off
the bed and rum, while every body in the
theatre was all upin a muss, some lurgn'. some
swearin’.—Tho upshot of it was, the perlice
carried me out of the theatre an’ told me to |
make myself scarce. l
Wall, as L didn't fee) any Lettor | went in
to a shopclose by, an' called for two glasses
of brandy ; after swallerin' it | went hum to
the tavern. 1 sot down by the winder and
tried to think I felt better, but 'twas no go ;
that blessed old ingin was still wallowin' away
inside ; o | went out an’ eat a quarters worth

went back an' told the tavern keeper | felt
kinder sick, an’ thought I'd take some Caster

THE JACK KNIFE.
A ship was driven out of ber couse, and east
away withio sight of an unknewn coast. All
on boacd might have escaped in the boats,
though rather crowded; but one of the pas
seongers, on their refusing to admit his trunk
n ary’ boat, reniained n the ship te unfasten
it and get out kis pocket-book, which contain
el notes to the amount of twenty-thousand
pounds. This, he thought weuld pnot detain
him a moment, and he requested them to
wait; but iu the hurry and confusion of the
moment, he could not immediately recollect
what he had done with the key of his trouk.
Having found it at last, and secured l:is mon
ey, he perceived, to his dismay, that every
boatwas out of sight, while the ship was full
ing apart und suddenly he found himself in
the sea. Catching at some article which was
floating past, he clung to it almost voconcious
ly, not relaxing his hold, even when his seunses
were lailing bim. Fortunately he was float
ed to the land, and when he revived, found
himself lying on the beach. As soon as his
strength returned, he ascended an eminence,
but he could see no sign of the wreck or of
the boats, or of any humun creature. Sut
as he was leaning despondingly against a (ree,
he was suddenly started by being clapped on
the shoulder, while a voice at his esr ex
claimed, * What cheer, my hearty 1" Turn
ing around, he gladly recognised one of the
crew, and iugquired what had become of the
rest.
“Why, I don't know, but I'suppose they
are safe by this time; but I have seen noth
ing ef them,”
“Were you not with them in the boats 1"
** Noj I'stayed on board to the last.”
“And se did I, though I was not aware of
your being on board; I hope you succeeded
as well as i did in saving your property.”
‘1 had nothing to save but my jack-knife
and a plug of tobacco=both safe in my trou
sers’ pocket."
“Then why did you not think of saving
yoursclt at once 1™
**No, I could not leave the ship as long as
the planks held together. She can't say that
{ was not true to the last. Butcome, comrad,
let us see what kind of quarters we have got
mto.
They travelled some distance without any
signs ol ahabitation. Necessity quickened their
ingenuity ; they were successful occasionally,
in catching fish, oysters, or birds, in all of
whichithe sailor's jack-knife proved of invalu
able service, in preparing the proper snares
aud weapons, in opening the oysters, cutting
up and cleaning the fish or birds, and above
all, in striking a light to make afire for the
purpose of cookery. Ounce also when they
were attacked by a wild beast, the sailor by a
prompt use of his jack-knife preserved their
lives.
They had lived in this manner some
months, when arciviag at the epposite side of
the island, they found it inhabited by savages,
who conducted them to their king. The gen
tleman, anxious te conciliate his copper-skin
ned majesty, produced a five hundred pound
bank-note, and politely oiicred it to his ac
ceptance. T'he king examiued it with curios
ity, applied it o his nese and tongue, and be
ing satisfied it was not good to eat, veturned it
with some contempt. I'he geantleman soon
found that his twenty thousand pounds could
vot procure him the simallest consideration,
The sailor, ov the contrary, s a few days be
came a personage of great importauce, from
the many services he was enabled to render
with his jack-knife, among a people where
iron was unknown. They liberally supplied
all his wants, his rich friend was glad to profit
by lis bounty.
One day they were attending the king on
an eminence overlooking the sea, they des
cried a distant sail evidently passing by the
island. They kindled a bouo-fire and hoisted
signals, but did not succeed in attracting no
tice.
“If we only had a bhoat,” exclaimed the
sailor, “1 think we could get within hail, as
she does not stand far out, though itis plain
she intends to pass without touching this
way."”
The gentleman produced his twenty thous
and pounds and offered it to the king in ex
change for a canoe, but his Majesty rejected
the roll of paper, and tarned to the sailor, with
asingle word—=* Knife.”
The burgain was instantly closed: the jacke
knife was received by the King with no less
delightthan was experienced by the English
men as they junmiped into the canoe. By dint
of hard paddling, and a favorable current, they
got within hail, and were taken on board the
ship, which proved to be an English vessel
homeward bound.
As they came within sight of the white
clifis, the gentleman took the sailar apart, and
handing him two notes amounting to a thous
and pounds, said:
“Yon inust not refuse te accept this, for
you have done more for methan twenty times
as much could have doue. | trust you inay
tind these bills one duy or other us useful s
your jack-knife has been. [ have learned b‘v
this time, u man's wealth ie to be measured,
not by the extent of his possessions, but by
the use he can make of what he posesses.”
THE DECEITS OF THE SENSE OF
HEARING,
T'he ingeniovs contrivauce described in the
preceding urticle, suggested to Dr. Brewster
the following remarks on the deceits of the
sense of hearing, which are highly interest
ing, and well worthy of being remembered,
especially by those who unfortuuately are io
clined to the marvellous :
“ Although the performances ol speaking
heads were generally effected by the methods
above decribed, yet there is reason to think
that the ventriloquist sometimes presided at
the exbibition, and deceived the audience by
his extraordinary powers. Thereis no kind
of deception more irresistible in its effeets than
that which arises from the uncertainty with
which we judge of the directionand distance
of sounds. Every person must have noticed
how a sound in their own ears is olten mista
ken for some loud nowe moderated by the
distance from which it is supposed to come ;
and the sporteman must have frequently been
surprised ot the existence of musieal sounds
bumming distinetlv in the wide heath, when
it was ouly the wind sounding in the barrel of
his gun. The great proportion of appari
tions that haunt old castles and apartments as
sociated with death, exist onl(v iu the sound«
which accompany them. I'he imagination
even of the boldest inmate of a place hallow
ed by superstition, will transfer some very
triflm g sounds near his own person to a direc
tion aud to a distance entirely different from
the truth; and the sound which otherwise
might have nothiog peculiar, will derive un
other character from its new situation
Spurning the idea ol'nvurcmutural origin, he
determines to unmask the specire, and grap
ple with it in his den. All the inmates of the
fiouse are found to be asleep—even the bests
are in their lair—there is not a breath of win
(o ruffie the lake that reflects through the
casement the waning crescent of the night;
and the massive walls in which he is enclosed,
forbid the idea that he has been disturbed by
the wrapping of panelling or the bending of
I partitions.~=llis search is vainj and he re
mains master of his own secret, tll he has
another opportunity of investigation, The
same sound again disturbes him, and, modi
fied, probably, by his own position at the
| ime, it may perhaps appear to come in a di
frection slightly different from the last. His
| searches are resumed, and he is again disap
| pointed, If this iucident should eceur nifi‘;t
i after night, with the same result;—if the
sound should appear to depend upon his own
’ motions, or be aty how associated with hime
| sell, with his present feelings, or with his past
history, his personal courage will give way, to
‘ a superstitious dread, at which he himself
Cperhaps laughs, will seize his miod, and he
- will rather believe that the sounds have a su
’ pernatural origin, than that they ecould
“continue to issue from a spot where he¢ knows
there is no natural cause for their produc
tion.
[ *1 have had occasion to have rersonal
knowledge of a case much stronger than that
- which has now been put. A gentleman, de
void of al) superstitions feelings, and living in
~a house free from any gloomy associations,
heard night after night in his bed-room a sin
~gular noise, unlike any ordinary sound to
which he was accustomed. e had slept in
the same room for years without hearing it,
and he attributed it at first to some change of
circumstances in the roof or in the walls of
the room; but after the strictest examination
no cause could be found foyit. It occurred
only once in the night: it was heard almost
every night, with few interruptions, It was
over in an instant, and it never took place lill
after the gentleman had gone to bed. 1t was
always distinetly heard by his- companion, to
“whose time of going to bed it had no relation. It
depended on the gentleman alone, and it fol-
Jlowed him into another apartinent with anoth
er bed, on the opposite side of the house.—
Accustomed to such nvestigations, be made ‘
the most diligent but fruitless search into its
cause. The consideration thatthe sound had
a special reference to him alone, operated up- j
on his imagination, and he did ot scraple to |
acknowledge that the mysterious sound al- |
ways produced a superstitious feeling at the
moment. Many months afterwards it was f
found that the sound arose from the partial
opening of the door of a wardrobe which was
within a few feet of the gentleman’s head, and
which had been taken into the other apart
ment., This wardrobe was almost always
opened before he retired to bed, and the door l
being a little tight, it gradaally forced itself
open with a sort of dull sound, resembling the l
note of a drum. As the door had only started ‘
half an inch out of its place, its change never
attracted attention. I'he sounds, indeed,
scemed to come in a different direction, and
from a greater distance,
* When sounds so mysterious in thewr ori
gin are heard by many persons disposed be
forehand to a belief in the marvellous, their
influence over the mind must be very power
ful. An inquiry into their origin, il itis
made at all, will be made more in the hope
of confirming than of removing the original
impression, and the unfortunate victim of his
own fears will also be the willing dupe of his
own judgment.” i 3
Grear Temere, AT Ava, Burnman.—~The
Rev. Mr. Kincaid described this structure as
two thousand feet square, the walls being 8
feet thick and 70 high. On the top of this is
a structure 150 square aud 50 feet high; on
this is a third, 120 feet square and 30 feet
high; and on this a fourth, 75 feet square and
10 feet high, from the top of which ascends a
magnificent spire. From the top of this spire,
and of a spire ascending from each of the
four structnres, are suspended belis—in all
200, with elappers so constructed, that a strong
wind sets them a ringingz. *On walking a
long fy this temple, when the wind is strong,
and-all these bells are ringing, the wonderful
sensation i produced as though music was
falling around from the clouds.”
Errecruar Rerroor.—A late eminent
judge, of Virginia, smid to a fiiend, that the
most cutting reprool he ever received, was
without words. He was crossing a ferry with
the late Dr. John H. Rice. The boat could
not be brought to land, nud they were carri
ed to the shore by the black ferry man. One of
these were so careless as to sulier the Judge’s
clothes to become wet, and the latter expres
sed hus anger by an imprecation. Dr. Rice,
without saying a word, turned on him his
large speaking eye, with a sorrowful expres
sion. ** 1 npever felt so reproved,” (smd the
judge,) **in my life,” and instantly begged
his pardon, *¢ Ask pardon of God," said Dr.
Rice. ] shall never torget it.”
Goop Avvice.~There are many persons
who fiud it ditheult to get a head in the world
because their minds are in a constant state of
perplexity. Did such persons ever reflect
that they may probably hiave the organ of or
der large, and it is for want of attending to
the demands of this organ that their minds are
always confused and they do not thrive in
business ! Let them have a place for every
thing aud a time for every thing, and see that
they attend to such arrangements. Then the
wilderness will blossom like the rose, and their
trees will bear fruit.

Maxinag A Raise. A vegro who was very

empty to purchase one, met a little boy on
the Battery in New York, and accosted him

“ How dar you smoke a cigar? Frow it

of his prescriptions, and asmong others he has
placed the l'ulfint reliance on this specitic remedy

ularly applicable.
It 1s composed of twelve different ingredients,
all’of which are celebrated for lheir(roloncy and
' efficacy in diseases of the longs and pulmonary

| cases of Croup have beon relieved and cured by
this old and highly estecined medicine, than any
other extant. s\'o eflort has been made to obtain
certiticates or laudatory recommendations of its
! peculiar virtues, though hundreds of cases of al
wost miraculons cores have come within the
knowledge of the inventor und proprietor, hut it
has been preferred to let it vest upon its own in-
Ltrinsic merits rather than resort to the usual means
of bringing medicinul preparations into notice
Man %’uunliel who have used it for years as a
-mn({ard medicine, have repeatedly solicited the
present proprictor to wake an effort to introduce
~and spread the knowledgze of its high value more
extensively, and thereby save the life of many a
promising and darling child—with this view, and
that all who see fit to make the trial may be ben

to advertise it extensive'y and bring it more fully

more indispensable in a family, partieularly if it
is comto-cd in part of young children than Whit

can be placed on melicine alone, this cannot fail
to have the desirad efl'vct, as it contains the most

‘Genuine Patent Galvanic Rings,
. AND CHRISTIE'S MAGNETIC FLULD,
THIS remarkable discovery has received the
universal approbation of the medicnl profes
sion of Grest Britain Las now Leen sufliciently
before the Awmerican publie to give a fair test of
s power and efficacy. ‘The Gulvanic Ringe
buve long been used with perfeet success in all
cuses of thenmatism, scute or chrunie, applying
to the liead, face or limbs gout e doloureux,
toothacke, bronchitis, verligo, nervous or sick
hesdache, indigestion, paraiysis, palsy, epilepsy,
fits, cramp, palpitation of ihe heart, apoplexy,
stilfuess ot joints, lnmbago, spinal complains, nen
ralgia, general debility, deficieney of nervous en
erfi_v and all nervouns disorders,
‘heir exiruordinary etfeets upon the system
mnst be witnessed to be believed; and as a cer
tain preventive for the above complaints they are
equally to be recominended.
THE GALVANIC BELTS, BANDS, BRACELETS, &¢
Iu some complaiuts of a very severe eharacter
and of long Mafiding. the power oblained by the
Galvanic Rings is not suflicient to arrest the pro
gress of discase, and ultimately restore health.—
The improved wodification in the Galvavic Belts,
Bands, Bracelets, &e. entirely remedies this ob
jection ; any degree of power that is te?uired can
easily be ol{mm d, and no diseasc which the mys
terious agent of galvanism can effect, will fail to
bo‘?ormlnomlg relieved,
ertificates bearing strongest witness of the ex
traordinary effects of these articles are daily uc
cumulating. The following are merely offered
as a sumple of hundreds of a similar character :
The first is an extract from an editorial which
appeared on the 24th of June in the Albany Duily
Citizen, Stanley Swith, Esq., editor.
“The patent Galvanic Kings, which are mak
ing such a stir in the world just now, ure a novel
invention of this age of inventions "’ * *
* With regard to their etlicacy we can say that
two or three cases have fallen under our notice,
which have favorably impres:ed our minds. ‘l'he
first is that of a highly re: pectuble merchant of N,
Yoik, who declared to us that their use specdily
relieved him of a congh, seated pain in the side,
eymptoms of a pulmonary complaint. and he is
now entirely well. The second that we shall no
tice. is that of a young man named Robbins, a
resident of this city, who übout one year since
was visited with an attack of puralysis, which af.
fected the whole of one side of his hody. We
accompnnied a medical friend to his resideace,
No. 96 Beaver sireet, on Sunday, to inquire into
his case. We found that he had been deprived
entirely of' the use of one arm and leg, and that
sensation has been lost 1o the whole of one side
of the hody. He had been nnable 1o use the leg
in walking or the arm in eating, and the rh)nic
"innln said lhee' could not help him. Within the
| last two weeks he had worn two snd four of Dr.
Cristie’s Galvanie Rings, and used the Magnetie
’ Flod, and the etfect upon s paralyuc hinbs is
| astonishing. The deutihke coldness left them,
the nuwbpess begnn to give way o many sensa-
Ilmnu of returming life and leeling, perspiration
came out freely, and he has been rapidly guining,
and while before he wore the Ring, he wos una
! ble to wriculate distinet'y, walk or feed himself,
yet now he talks freely, rides out, walks some,
and for the most part is able to belp himsell,—
These cases, coming 1o our person.) knowledge,
certainly testify 1o the merits of Dr. Cristie’s Gal
~vanic Rings and Magnetie Flopid "
The following is copied from *"T'he Orphan’s
Advoeute and Social l"lummr." the well known
publication in Boston, cdited by the Misses A,
and E G, Fellows. Prejudice must vanish when
snch authority vouches for evidence like the fol
lowing. It speaks for iteelf,
CCHRISTIE'S GALVANIC RINGS.
“The efficiency of Galvanism in the cure of
diseases, particularly those effecting the nervons
system has long been acknowledged. The diffi
culty has been that while the patient received a
benefit in one direction he was injured by the se
verity of the shocks This difficulty has of late
Peen in a great measare remedied by an improv.
ed construction of the galvanie batiery. But the
great desideratum lny still beyond ;it was to ap
ly the galvanic power gently and unceasingly
li“);il important object has been accomplished by
the Galvanic Rings, which have lately been in.
vented, and have snddenly risen into wueh pub.
lic fuvor. In relation to these Ringswe have wit
nessed some very practical results unless we were
greatly mistaken in the cause. One was that of
an orphan girl in our own charge, and temporra
ily in onr fumily, who had been a great sufferer
under paralytic shocks, till she had nearly lost the
use of herlimbs. One of her hands, for exam.
le, was completely twisted up. She has used
f)r. Christie's Galvanie Rings and the Magnetic
Fluid which accompanies them, for a few weeks,
and she is now almost complately cured. We
could name other instances of ‘yemm- in poor
health being Gnutly beunefitted i’ not restored by
their nse. We are happy to testify to what we
know, lesving the reader to judge for himsell.—
The expense of trying them is but litle, and they
certainly can do no harm Many of the simplest
remcdies are, after all, the wost efficacious.”
It is unnecessary to add more, except to state
that the gennine Galvanic Rin'gs und Magnetic
Fluid are only ta be obtained of CHAS, D&ER.
