THE GROUND SWELL.
How afttht ihidft of twnlug creep
O'er yonder dewy sea, F
balDay bu lulled to sleep
The tenant* of the tree !
No wandering breeze Is here to awe*?p
'?i?k?<lowv ripple o'er the deep,
? *t swells the heaving sea.
How calm the sky! K est. Ocean, rest ?
F rom storms and raffle ftee;
Calm as the Image on thy breast,
Of her that governs thee f
And yet, beneath the moon's mild reign,
Thy broad breast heaves as one in pain
Thou dark and silent sea !
There are whom fortune vainly wooa
With all her pageantry.
Whom every flittering hltsa pursues,
Tet still they faie like thee;
The spell Is laid within their mind
Least wretched then when most resigned,
Their hearts throb alleotly ?Hebtr.
SENTIMENT.
Oh, that so holy thoughts would of ener stoop
Where music middens?thousand tapers gleam
1 saw her 'mid a lovely, dancing group?
I saw her lightly leap and gently droop
She semed a lily, walking in a dream
By ripples hushed, upon a moonlit stream?
A truant lily, wandering in a trance:
?ad as she glid where full thatapers blazed
Upon bar pale, transparent countenance:
And as her meek blue eyes she half way raised,
And then mov d on, slow swimming in the dance
' di?y h">w, and gazed and gaz?l,
As If half waked at dawning," bad found
l ce d ly sta; singing, dancing on the ground !
JUSTE MILIEU.
Truth's in all creeds, our smooth eclectics cry:
Nay, truth is one, not many, 1 reply;

Mr. Jshn Tobias having furnished me wltk
C'.asses, by which I have been greatly aided (my
vision having suffered greatly from reading at

Mr. J . Toaias: Dear sir?1 am happy to say
that the Spectacles which I obtained from you last
week are entirely satisfactory. From an inequal
ity in the visual range of my eyes, I have hereto
fore found great difficulty in getting glasses of the
proper focal distance. It affords me pleasure ta
?tate that, by the aid of yonr optometer, this d< fi
nally has been happily obviated so that theglasras
Sou furnished me are decidedly the best adapted
i ay eyes of any 1 have ever yet used
?tryrespectfully, yours, R B.DRANE,
Rector of St. James' Parish
Department of Interior, May 7,1855.
Frtsa natural defects and the unequal ranged
?y eyes, I have been compelled to use glasses for
several years. I have tried different opticians
without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted to my
?y5*. Four months since Mr. Tobias made twe
pair* especially for me, which I have found to
serve me perfectly. By the use of his optomete:
he Is enabled to adapt Glasses minutely to the c-ye.
1 most cheerfutly recommend Mr. Tobias to all
having occasion to use glasses, and bear ay testl
msny at to his skill as an optician.

?as discovered in one of our common pastbbb
wuds a remedy that cures
E/ERY KIND OF HUMOR;
f BOM TBB WOBST SCROFULA SOWN TO A COM
MON riMPLB.
HE HAS TRIED IT IN OVER ELEVEN
hundred cases, and never failed except in twe
oases, (both thunder humor ) He has now in hi*
possewion over two hundred certificates of its vir
tue. all within twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a uursiog sore
mouth.
One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of
pimples on the face.
Two to three bottles will elear the system of
biles.
Two bottle:; are warranted to a are tbe won
canker lu the mouth and stomach.
Three to five bottles are warranted te cure (he
worst case of Erysipelas.
One to two bottles are warranted te eure all

Two bottles are warranted to cure running ol

Pour to six bottles are warranted to care sorrnpt

One bottle will cure soaly eruption of the skin.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure th?

Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the
most desperate case of rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted te eve ths
Bait rheum.
Five to eight bottles will aare the worst caaes ol
Berofjla.
A benefit Is always experienced from the first
bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when tht
above auantlty is taken.
Reader, 1 peddled over a thousand bottles of
this In the vicinity of Boston. I know the effect
of it In every case So sure as water will extin
gulsh fire, so sure will this cure humor. 1 never
sold a bottle of It but that sold another; after a
trial It always speaks for Itself. There are twe
things about this herb that appears to me surpris
ing ; first that It grows in our pastures. In some
Cces quite plentiful, and ytt its value has never
n knewn until 1 discovered it In 1^46?eecond
that It should cure all kinds of humor.
la ordcx to give some idea of the suddea rlu
and great popularity of the discovery, I will state
that In April, lbS3, 1 peddled It, and sold aboutC
bottles per day?la April, IBM, 1 sold over 1,00(
bottles per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have beet
1b business twenty and thirty years, say that no
thing in the annals of patent medicines was evei
like it. There Is a universal praise of it from al'
quarters
In my own practice I always kept It strictly for
humors?but since its introduction as n genera]
family medicine, great and wonderful virtue*
have been found In It that 1 never suspected
Several cases of epileptic fits?a disease whlok
was always considered incurable,have been cured
by a few bottles. O, what a mercy If It will prove
effectual in all cases of that awful malady?there
are but few who have seen more of it than 1 have
1 know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them
aged people cured by It For the various disease*
or the Liver, Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma,
Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side, Diseases of the
Spine, and particularly in diseases of the Kid
neys, Ac., the discovery has done more good than
any medicine ever known
