NEVER DESPAIR.
When storms arise,
And whirlwinds sweep,
And darknoss shronds
The rolling deep
Then, tempest-dossed, we see afar
The beacon’s steady glare,
With rapture hail the welcome star,
When hope sueceeds despair.
Thus, when dark clouds
Mane on our life,
And loug we wage
Uneganl strte
O never yield, but coward press ;
still boldiy ao and dare ;
It never mikes onr troubles less,
By vielding to despair.
What if onr first
strong eff s fail ?
One trial more
Moy cten prevadl
Remember Broce and Tamarlane,
And sti)l misfortune hear
And il ng once, why try aguin--
Bat never more despair.
Hard i= the fute
Of those who find
No sympathy
Amonge mankind
Time brings no solace for their grief,
Life seems no longer Tt
But even those find no rolief
Whenever they despair.
Strive to do nght,
And never cense,
And hope and joy
Will find increase ;
Perchance thy sorrows may be healed,
Banish atar each eare |
Strive with thy fate—hut uever yield i
Before the demon of despuir, |

Max Kemson the old hunter, at last settled
down within the reach of civibzation. o
youth a voyager among Cuanadians, 1n afier
hife a trapper without society exeept tl.e ncca
sional companionship of 1 few chance com
rades, he was wholly wedded o a wild hfe, and
inly pined w hen the infivmaties of old age com
peiled him to return to bis kind, and wearso
cial fetters. There was another motive, as it
seemed to others, which however had little
weight with him. s wanderings were not
entirely solitary. For many years he had
been accompamed by a beautiful, wild hearted
girl, the sule ofispring of the ouly marnage
that the free trapper had ever coutricted.—
People thonght as bis daughter approached
womanhood, Max would naturally wish to give
her the wdvantages of education and society.
But he had no such thonght. These things
were of littde importance in his own views,
or indeed in those of s daughter, as he very
well knew but Max was too scusible not 1o
feel that his natura! Lite must soon terminate,
and that the desert was not the most fiiung
home for an unprotected friendless girl. So
he settled himself as near the witderness as
possible, and became the oracle to all lovers
of torest eraft. His natare was hetter pleased
with this amphibious life than of he had ex
tsted in a wholly uncongenial element.
Diare Kermon imherited from her mother,
the daughter of o Canadian voyager, both a
name and the roomiag spirt of that race.—
Erom the days ol her eariiest recollection, she
had been at ber fohier's side on the wild pra
rvie or ranging over desert mountans, and
sometimes too her courage was tried in hours
of danger. The bold hunter delighied i pre
datory skivmishies with the Toduns, who on
their part were wont 1o acknowledze the debt
with interest. Once with but two comrades at
his back, he was surrounded in his trapping
lodge and forced to stand a weel's siege.—
Theu the fearless conduct of his daughter,
child as she wos, von from him a hunter's
praise and fatherly pride. Though calm with
out at the sicht of blood, she shuddered at iis
eftusion. ‘T'he brave girl, who so courageous
garrisoned one side of their little hut, was a
true woman atter all, That was a singular
training which sie receieved—wandering o
ver an uninhabitad country with a rude trap
per: shutout from education, and only taught
to tead and write by an accidental residence
for a few weeks at a Jesuit mission ; without
means of vennement, and having for the lan
guage of ber mind anly what could be learned
from the voice of Nature in her deepest se
clusions. This she could understind vague-
Iy,
g et the heart of the maiden
Swelled and obeyed its power Itke the tremulous tides of
the ocean.’ 5
She loved the grecu woods and mighty forest,
for there ber soul could hive bevond the rouch
influences of the only lite she had ever known.
Hours passed away and she would linger, as
miuch rapt in her woodland reachings as when
she first entered the pleasing solitude, leaving
the rude camp aud s life far behind, Peor
haps she was better educated thus than if she
had been taught 1o culuvate her mind by
barsh mathemanies, her religion from a prosy
pulpit in some sleepy church, or her atfec
tions from fashionable novels. Yetthere cer
tainly defeets iu this primitive syvsiem.—
Though the faich which nature taught her
was cluldhike avd pure, the trainings of her
soul lofiy aud wide as the forests themselves,
this was not all of her Lfe. Davs and nights
by camp-fires, the little interconrse ever en
royed, and that solely with half civilized be
ings, the constant sight of weapous and death,
had all given an unnatural turn to a spirit o
viginally bold, and taught her ignorance to be
lieve that manhiuess lay ouly iu shill with the
ritle or strength for athledic feats. An unnat
ural character. perhaps. But place ber two
lovely namesakes in the same sitaation, bold
Diaue of Poiters, and that better ereation of
fauncy, dashing Die Vernon, and, niy lile for
ity the tusignificant daughter of a trapper would
well compare with eithier.
Such was her character when ol M.x
Kermon, exchanging his semi-barbarism for
the holf-civihiz tion ot a 4 Western (rontier,
found as little dilference betweeu his old and
vew situation as wight have been expected.—
In fine duys he huuted, o uupleasant weather
he perchied on 4 setide with bis pipe and lold
Liuge stories of old adveninres. O course
books and bookmen were coutemptible in his
eves, and equally of course they were worth
less in her sight, for she had wvever known
them. Sbe mingled but fittle with those a
vout lier, and speut most of the leisure time
alone with ker wusings o some fuvorite re
treat,
She was very beautiful. Long exposure to
the sun bad veiled but wot hidden her fair
complexion with a rich vive, and indeed, as
with more fashionabie ladies, the veil added 10
her charms. Consiant exercise Lad given

addressed, Soitors cane for her haud and
wers repulsed. The bold and adventurous
she instnctively disliked for the coarsene-s
which geuerally characterised them @ the few
of a different stamp who sought her, she
did uot tuke the trouble to notice, thioking
thew hardly worthy of the name of men. Of
this latter nuimber, the most prominent was
James Charlion, a young lawyer who had just
opencd his office 1o that village. 1t is no won

Iy thought of him wha would eome nearest to
that cluss of any she had ever kuown. o that
single word was comprised all of Charlion's
characier, 80 far o 8 it hias yet been developed.
Educated at an Eastern university, and natu
vally of a retired cast of miind, he bad always

books. In being obliged o lall back on them

[acter had appened. A hitle intercourse with
Ilhr world would soon teach him how toknow
and be known ; after that, his talents were a
sure guaranty of success. In his eyes the
beautitul forest girl was the one whom philos-
Cophers had always admired and vainly sought
to find., He determined to be more fortunate
and to ehtain the reality of the ehildlike fresh
ness, while they could only conceive the ideal.
F Luckily he saw his deficiencies and resolved
1o amead them, so that she could at least

C o Ood Max hermon suddenly took it into his
Chead that eightecn was the proper age for mar-
Criage, ond blunty told his daughter so, who
on her part reecived it with a teeling that she
Cconuld hardly understand. Marriage she had

| Phe hunter determined that none but a man
i alter s own heartshionld possess his danght
er, and almost the only qualification necessa
vy according to his views were strength and
[;I:ilil)' i many spoits. He took no pains 10
Cconceal his determination, and it was sar
} prising how suddenly such gaimnes rose in fa
vor with the young men of the villize and vi
cimty. Among so niny it wassonn what dif-
Cticult to distinguish the foremost, and vielhing
Cto the general desive, Mux Keomon appoint
ced a partcular day tor the contest, with the
Cunderstanding that thevietorshoubd e backed
!by his favor. Diane protested ot first angainst
this primitive plan, but the ol man was res
"olute and she too (et an interest in these
proofs of moavhood. and was quite withing to
accept the victor of the day as her husband,
provided he was not too far below the stand -
ard she had mentally fixed.
At dast the dav eame, and with a erowd of
young men about him, Max measured off the
around of contest, and every neccessiy ar
rangement, There were fair girls too present
it the seene; blooming Western damsels,
drawn together by the excitement ol these lus
te lists, or perhiaps anxious to sce what la
hoved one would be removed from that very
necessuty class—their beaux. There were
but two exercises, one of leapiny and one of
mere strength, Ood Max, himself, led off the
first, and grambled becanse s stiffened limbs
Ccould not carry him bevond fourteen feer,
:l'nm less, as he bitterly exclaimed, than he
could leapin his vouth, Then came the oth
crsone by one, and with different success -
[ Some fifteen (ect, sinteen, two seventeen, one
luckless boy only thivteen, and another, more
tortnnate than the rest,a perfect Ajax in limb,
reached seventeen and three quarters, Tlns
scitled the question, and all tarned their at
tention to the second trial. Just then the
voung lawyer, Charlton, came up and goazed
upen the proceedings with quiet inhifference.
A bar was firmly placcd between two paral
lel posts (ull four feet above the reach of aman
from the ground. T'he ecandidates were 1o
feap ap. cateh with both hands, and then, af
ver heavy weights had bheen attached 1o their
feet, slowly vaise their shoulders 1l they
touched the bary then drop and hang by a sin
¢le hand, The one who could cling longest
thus, was the winner of o wife. Fewer tried
this game than the other, for it required great
musceular strength, and besides, the immense
lnbs of the former winner seemed to settle
the question. With the weighis artiehed Le

formed, though by no means as large in bulk
as lis et rival. Yot every limb appeared
to be inits proper place and well ser,

He dropped hightly down.
Dravely done ! saud Max, *done like a man,
my hoy, but why dido’t you try the leap I
Charlton muarhed the ground with a wary
eve and thea rose nimbly rom the starting
place. )
‘Right in his tracks ! eried the old hunter,
Saboit you hoad visen adittle ligber, vou would
have struck two ionches aheal. No matter
though=—its coough to be even with him oo
this. You beat hun on the other as neatly
I ever saw anything done.*
Notwithstauding his admirvation of these
proofs of Charlton's manhness, the old man
seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the idea of
marrying his doughter 1o a lawyer. The
young muan whom Charlton had so eclipsed
was evidently his first choice. Suddenly his
fice brightened s he turned to the rivals and
said 3
L *Come, bovs, vou're even on the jumping—
“lf’('s‘ bave a hitde vile practice 1o settle that
part. Another teidd will do no harm. Two
shots cach, remember.’
b The Ajax brskly appoved the plan with a
trivmphant ghince at Charlton. He wellknew
that the young lawyer had not reckoned on
this, or ever trained himself very particularly
with the rifle. The other looked surprised
and annoyed, but made no useless opposition.
A painted nail was partly driven into a tree
at long shot distance, as the mark. Charlton
fired first with great care, but missed it by at
least a toote s vival next, and with better
success, for his bullet struch within an inch
of the nwl. T'he o] hunter rubbed his hand
pand seizing a ville took vapid wim. The nuil
was driven night o the tree. Charlton had
Cthe vext shot, and voticing that Max had
raised hos nifle vapidly unnl the instant of pres
ing the tngger, imitated the motion precisely,
trusting in his own quick eye, and somewhat
in toriune too. The marker at the tree an
sounced that the new nail had been slighily
struck onhe edge of the head and beut dou
ble. I'he lust shot was close, but did not
quite touch the mark.
T'his was more than the defeated man conld
endure. He shook hiselenched flstat Charl

for the ..ur;.-ps breast. Charlton's hands were

with a shight whirl, compelled him to executs
a somerset on nothing and then fall on his
back, wildly counting the aficrnoon stars.

Max shook bim warmly by the hand, and the

Charlton was disappointed. He found even
more than he had expected,~a noble but un
informed soul, lofiy thoughts but undirected
and wanderning —=but closer views showed him
the folly of his ideal. With all a lover's ar

‘fhe Asthina can be Cured !
{ THE ONLY REMEDY !
l)ll. PETER 1, LEE has diccovered a remedy that will
' certainly and effectually cure the Spasiodic Asthing,
{ as has been demonsteated i huadredsof istances beyond
‘ all doubt, He asks the attention of the aiilicted to the tol
lowing letter from Rev. L By Wilhimme=on, who s well
| knowan throghout the United States i
Eitor of the Star—=ltis Known to some of your readers
T and many of my friends, that § Loce recently found a cure
Cfor Asthona, with which I have satlored severely for miany
| years. During iy recent visit to the East, many ansious
inguiries were made as t the means of a 4 cure which ap-
penis astonishing, g
Mo save turther ingniries, and also to put others in the
| way of procuring a like reaet, allow me to say, that 1 pro-
Cenred aopreseription from Do Peter L Lee, to wineh alone
} lattiibute a cure 1 have every reason to helieve perfect
and vadical, 1 have indeed no symptom or feeling ot Asth
ma left,
Through a long period of fifteen vears | have suffered
much—teied varions medicimes, and been acquainted with
hundreds of cases and Lain woll sacetied that Dr, Lee’s is
the only prescription that ean be cobied upon, Gratitude
to him tor the impmeasurable rel of e hias broveht e, and
w desre to serve the satfeoine, Lave alone udueed me to
make this public statement, which do in the utinost con
fidence that those who follow my advice will not he disap
pointed. I D, WILLIAMSON,
Cineinnati,” Oct, 10, 1847,
In alettersent Rev, M. Drew, of Augnsta, Me., he says:
| have not tuken a halt bottle, and wn well, and have
no fears off A thana agam inasmnch as 1 have for the last
two months becn exposed to ail =orts of weather, and am
tree from that complint which has made me a sutferer
through lonzs dreary years,”
Dr. Lee believes, fromins know'ledge of the medicine and
its effects that the five eases will be permanently cured,
it the use of it i contimued,
Now let the reader examine the impaitial statement of
Rev, Wi, A, Drew, editcsof the Gospel Banner, of Augus
ta, Modne, and be o will be in possession of sctual experi
monts, He saysi—
e editor of the Banner is a 0 fiend of humbuggery
and would not conseat to teceive nny of this medicine on
sade until he hady by means of several battles forwarded
throngh him aecertamned to his own satistaction, that it is,
o the wholey o good medicmes He did not require that
should care every body, for such a pretension wonld be
bumbnggery s no omedicine will eure 1n every case ; but if
he <houkd ascortwin that it accomplished the object in a
wianjority of cases, he weant to conder the fact as enough
to establi<h Cor it a good el ty general contidence, He
ha: ascertinmed that in ftcen oot of seventeen cpses it has
given relief s that i ten of that mmber it appears to have
effceted wewre ; and that, in the other two cases, noetlets
good or bad have been perceived from its use, Justice,
however, requires us to = .y, il these cases were quite
hopeless ones, which it was notreally expected any medi
cine could reach.”
To this wight be added handredsof similar testimonies ;
but the follow iz from the editor of the Stacin the West,
who is personally acquainted with Dr, Lee, and knows of
the sucesss of lus inedicine, 1 worthy of notice j
T Astivay Meprorsee=Ve cons frequently write ns
letters of inguiry about thismedo ne,to know it itisreally
what it chims to bee . We canonly say that the certificates
i the Starare Gescise—to Wihooo might be added many
wore of a stnilar character, Uur own opindon is, that it
will permanently care at least ercht out of every ten who
are troubled with the spasiodic astiimea, 10 s certainly a
very remarkabie medicine, althouch we know nothing of
the angredients of which it s composed, It is the tirst
medicine, we behieve, ever viude known that will cure
the spasmodic asthma of long standing, A physician of
thic ety satd to the maker of the wedicine a few days ago
“Tell me what the meacine i< wade of and 1 will give
you a hundred doilars 0t b cored an old gentleman, a
paticnt of mine, who has 00l the asthma these twenty
years!” e will only add =ome
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONSR
Undike quack medicine < itelaims to ciire but ene disease ;
and there can be no deception when a case of asthina is
cuveds The complaimt is of that aature, as all know who
have it that it cannot be charieed away by taith or other-
Wises A man with a congh ey <appose he has the con
stmption, tike medicine, and cotwell Perhiaps he would
have recovered without it—but the medicine gets the ered
i, The same s true of patent pills and other nostrams
which claim to cure almost all di-cases, Not o with the
wsthma. Hogenerally follows o man all his hfe—and if he
therefore gets well after takine o certain medicine, he
knows that cured hime He cannot be deceived, and no
remedy has ever been discovered except Dr, Lee’s that
will enre t,
Fo prevent imposition and counterfeits he designs to
confine the sale of it to a few responsible ngents, He Lwe
fers that it shall hecome known wore by its success, than
by evtensive wdvertising,
Al orders tor the medicine, wholesale, should be directed

Optical establishiment \l'ur the exclusive sule of their -
famed Parabola Spectaeles )at Noo LI Westminster street,
(Howard’s building,) and they would i spectiully invite
all those who have to resoit to weticiad and for impaired
Vision, to eall and test the quality of the above named Spee

Optameter. This instrament voas m\'rulm{ by Joha P,

We elaim for those glasses the following properties, viz:
