STICK TOGETHER. The inan who wrote the following de-1 serves the crown of a hero, for his heart is of the stufF from which heroes are made: When midst the wreck of fire and smoke, When canons rend the skies asunder, And fierce dragoons with quickening stroke Upon the reeling regiment thunder. The ranks close up to sharp command, Till helmet’s feather touches feather; Compact the furious shock thev stand, And conquer ! for they slick together! When now ’mid clouds of woe and want, Our comrades’ wails rise fast and faster, And charging madly on our front Come the bfcick legions of disaster, Shall we present a wavering band Anti fly like leaves before wild weather! No! side by side and hand in hand, We’ll stand our ground and stick togethei! God gave us hands—one left, one right; The first to help ourselves, the other To stretch abroad in kindly might, And help along our faithful brother. Then if you see a brother fall, And bow his head before the weather, If you be not a dastard all, You’ll help him up and stick together. —— No Time run Swapping,—An Iridi-! ana man was traveling down the Ohio, in a steamer, with a inure and a two-year old coll, when by a sudden careen of the boat, all three were tilted into the river. The Hoosier, ns he rose, puffing and blowing, above the water, caught hold of the tail of the colt, not having a doubt that the natural instinct of the animal would carry him safe ashore; the old mare took a “ bee line” for the shore, but the frightened colt swam lustily down the current, with its owner still hanging fast. “ Let go of the colt and hang on lo the old mare,” shouted some of his friends. “ Three, booh!” exclaimed the Iloosier, spouting the. water from his mouth, and shaking his head like a Newfoundland dog, “ it’s mighty fine your telling me to let go the colt; but to a man that can't swim, this aiti t exactly the time (or swapping horses." —.-- »-♦--— Home Papers.—Stick then, yo sturdy yeomanry and tillers of the soil to your home newspapers. No matter if you are poor; remember that none are so poor as the ignorant,except it be the depraved,and too often go together. Stick to your own local paper, though it may not be so large or imposing as some city weekly ; but re member it is the advertiser of your neigh borhood and daily business, and tells you what is going on around you, instead of a thousand miles away. If it is not on nice paper and as good as you wish to have it, pay your subscriptions well and get your neighbors, to do the same—rely upon it, the natural pride of the publisher will prompt him to improve it as fast as possi ble.— [Wisconsin Farmer.

Russer, the gentleman to whom I went with to sea from Gallatin, lias im proved to tile extent that lie is able to go any where his business calls him; in fact your nedicine lias performed such miraculous Hires, in every iustance where it lias been ;ried, that having gone into business at Hazle Vlao ilo ri r.i nnov ma 1 lioira ennnlndnil t H ry some of your Compounds, as I understood lou to say when you were here that you vould take ofl 2U or 25 per cent.

Slf.dge: Dear Sir—In conversation with your agent, [ learned that some prejudiced persons, which ire lo be found everywhere, against patent med icines. spoke of your medicines as nk doing much for themselves or any one else. To see iustl.ee done between all puilios, and to enable others, if they wish, to receive the same bene fits that I have from your medicines, I will simply give you a statement of facts, which you can make any use of you please. If any one doubts let them call on me and I can satis fy them. I am probably as well known as any one in this portion of the State, but 1 am not in the habit of giving certificates, but feel that in giving this one 1 am fully justified.— My son was taken sick with the Flux last July, and lay seventeen or eighteen days, when all hope on my part was gone, and nothing ap peared to do him any good, T commenced giv ing him vour Diarrhoea or Flux Syrup, and he commenced mending immediately. 1 verily believe itwas the saving of his life. You have the facts. Hoping that others may receive the benefit that mv son did, 1 remain, yours respectfully, JOHN F. ANDERSON. Anderson. Tens,, March 31, 1858. Dr. Sledge:—Dear Sir: Your medicines nave rendered general satisfaction here; they have even gone beyond the flattering recom mendation given by yourself. 1 have used in my family, with unparalleled success, your Nervous Tonic, your Diarrhoea Syrup, and your Liniment anil Hoarhound Pectoral ; and have found them superior to any medicines ever used here, for the various diseases arising from a miasmatic country like this, where Eevcr and Ague. Diarrhoea and Rheumatism, are the prevailing diseases. Your Nervous Tonic has been used by many others as well as myself, as a preventive of Fever and Ague; and it has invariably given satisfaction. 1 for one say emphatically that it will prevent Chills and Fevers, if taken according to the directions; and that one bottle will save any family ten times the cost, if used as a preven tive. I used it in ray family last year, and I will certify on oath that one bottle saved me at least ten times its cost. The three years previous to fast year, not one of us escaped the Chills and Fevers, and last year we used only one of your bottles of Nervous Tonic; MEMPHIS ADVERTISEMENT^ ^ and if there was a Chill or Fever, or^V tom of one, in my family, 1 never knew j* -y could cite you to numerous cases that.
