A nun or LETTERS.

. [We condense the following humorous
play on Letters, from an article in
the November number of Harper’s
Magazine. Little Charlie had been
amusing himself with a box of Letters,
getting his grandfather, an old-retired
sea-captain, to give him long words to
spell out. Weary after a while
of this, the old captain remarks to
Charlie’s‘mother :]

“ I was just thinking, Lucy, my dear,
what wonderful things these letters are.

Only six~and-twenty of them, Lucy—lit-

tle more than two dozen, my dear ;(and

yet how much we canido with them i—

Look at that little box, now, only a few

inches square ; and yet it contains the el-

ements of all the written history, all the

‘ ‘ “ridted history,all the‘ recorded eloquence
of the world i The laws of Moses, the

' wisdom of Solomon, the Declaration ,of
Independence, Washington’s Inaugural,
Daniel Webster’s arguments, all in that
little box, Lucy l” '

“ Well, I declare l true enough it
is l I never thought of that be ore,
though,” said the mild-eyed widow, drop-
pingrher sewing work upon her knee, and
looking with the most unbounded admi-
ration and affection upon her father-in-
law, whom she considered a perfect mira-
cle of wisdom. * * * *

While our worthy old friend, Captain
Osborn, was still gazing in abstract
reflection upon the memorial ashes of his
cigar, the gate opened, and a stranger
came up the little pathway. There was
something peculiar in the man’s look,

, and walk, and manner, what it was, Cap-
tain-Osborn could not have told if he had
tried, but he felt that it was peculiar.—
The intruder walked up to the window,
and resting his folded arms upon the sill,
looked full in the old Captain’s face with-
out speaking. '

“ Sarvant, Sir,” said the Captain, with
distant civility.

The stranger bowed silently.

“ Fine Weather, sir,” said the genial
old:man. '

And the stranger nodded in assent.

, “Ray-ther— hot for travelling, though,
“I shOuld say,” next observed the captain.
,tTo this the stranger replied by unbut-
'toning his vest'and pushing back his Pan-
ama.

Then the captain waited a while, but
the, stranger didn’t speak ; and the pause
grew irksome to the old man, who al-
ways abhorred silence, as Nature does a

.,.vacuum.

'- 4"“Stranger in these parts, I guess, ain’t
you ?” asked the Captain. The man
jnodded. The worthy captain was fairly

J puzzled. At last an idea struck him—
he wondered he had not thought of it
sooner——

. “Deaf and dumb, I conclude, aren’t
you i” But a shake of the head denied
this implication.

“ Then, why on arth l” broke out the
impatient Captain, “ why on arth don’t
you speak ? what do you stand there ma-
king signs forf I don’t talk with my
fingers, never could. Why under the
canopy don’t you speak, if you aren’t
deaf and dumb? What ails your mouth,
hey i”

The stranger hesitated, then his eye
fell on Charlie’s assorted letters, and, ex-
tending his arm, he took up two letters
and laid them on the window ledge before
the old man’s eyes. The letters were an
M and a T.

“ M—T, empty ?” said the skipper, re-
garding the letters. “ Well, what if it is
empty. I should think you could talk all
the better for that. I’ve heard of people
who couldn’t talk because their months
were too full ; but I never saw one
yet, who couldn’t talk because it was
empty !”

Again the stranger had recourse to
Charlie’s letters, and this time he select-
ed the letters U-C, and as he laid them

' down upon the window, he opened his
mouth and displayed a cavity tongueless

. as that of an elephant.

. , .“ See !” I guess I do l5’ said Captain
Osborn, recoiling in dismay. “ Good

,,.Lord l why, you poor critter, you 1 how
did you loose your tongue ? I never—
how, did it happen ? an accident ?”

Again the letters were borrowed, and
this time it was a D and two Z’s, which
were displayed.

f‘ Disease!” said the pitying Captain.
“Well, that was awful l I never heard
of such a case before, Where do you
come from i”

The next letters produced were I, O
and R. g

“ Iowa, goodness sake l and travelled
all this way with that impediment in your

. mouth—I mean without that impediment
in your mouth. Well, then, never mind,
you know what I mean. I don’t see how
you got along._ It’s hard work enough
to make cne’s way in the world with a
tongue in one’s head, but without one, I

,_ don’t see how you did it.”

The man smiled and held up the two
letters, E and Z.

. ' “E-Z, easy l—was it? Well, I dOn’t
know about that. It would be dreadful
hardto me. And what’s your name.—
Do tell i”

N Another dip at the letters produced 0-

“. Owen, is that your name? Well, I
never did i that’s your git-cu name, I con-
clude, Sir ?”

The man shook his head, and laid down
on A and C.

“A-C. Oh, yes, I see, Asa Owen.—
And where were you born ?”

Down came the letters, U-T-K.

,‘"Utica i you don’t say so. I used
to Know a man from Utica named Owen,
might be your father; what was his

‘ nsme I”

J and two B’s answered this inquiry.

“ anez—Jabez Owen ; guess tWan’t
h’m. What was your father, sir i”

The man held up two D’s. ,

“ D-D, Doctor of Divinity l” said the
old Captain. “ Oh no! ’twant'him ; the
man I knew was not a minister, by no
means. I don’t know much of minister’s
and I don’t think much of them, only
Father Taylor, the sailor preacher ; he
hasgot" the gift of tongues,’ certainly.—
Gucss your father hadn’t it, if he had,
you did not inherit it, any way. And
pray, Mr. Owen, have you got a. wife
and what’s her name 7”

This time Mr. Owen held up an L and

N, .

“Ellen! Well, I declare! And I
suppose you have have got children too—-
how many ?”

The stranger chose out a V.

“ Five children, a wife and five child-

. dren, and no tongue to tell your woes. I

vow that’s hard. And what are their
names 1’” . .
a The man took another dip at the cards
gathering up several, and held them up in
quick succession, the amused old Cap-
tain naming them as each was exhibited
in turn.

The first was M-R.

” Emma l Well done.”

The next K-T.

'" Katie ! Hurrah l”- V“

F-E, '

“Eflie ! That’s it.” i

L- .
g“ Elie ! Well, I never-go on.”

M

Then Came LG and two E’s.

“Eloise l ,By George 1 that’s curious,
and all girls, too—a wife and five . girls,
and not a boy among them to help you
scratch round for the rest of them. I
vow and declare I do pity you, anybody
would ; if I did not, I should deserve to
be burned iu—in——,’

Here the stranger quietly interposed
the letters F-EG.

f‘What? what i”—-said the old man
-—-“ F-E-G, in efligy. Well, yes—thank
you; that is quite an improvement. I
was going to say in a bonfire, but really
Ifshould rather be burned in effigy than
in a bonfire—that is, if it’s equally agree-
able all round. And pray, Mr. Owen,
.how old are you 1’”

Mr. Owen laid down the letter L.

“ Fifty years old, and no tongue! I
don’t see how you could have stood it ;
I couldn’t, I know. And what do you
do for a living, my friend? what do you
deal in Z?”

In answer to this two T’s were laid be-

fore him.
“Teasl Do you deal in teas, Mr.
Owen? Then, I suppose, you have not

quite lost your taste ; are you a good
judge of teas ?”

, Mr. Owen laid on the window the let-
ters I-X-L.

“ You excel ! do you ? Well, I’m glad
of it ; but can you make a living in that
way? Excuse me, but you look a little

I,
Here the kind hearted skipper paused,
in some embarrassment, and the strange
man having recourse to the letters again,
availed himself of the pause, and laid be-
fore him a C and D.

“ Seedy !” said the old man, laughing.
“ Ex-act-ly l that’s it—Only I did not
like to say so ; you don’t look flourishing
certainly. I am afraid you don’t make
much in that’way ; won’t make your for-
tune so ; don’t lay up money, I guess, do
you i”

Mr. Owen shook his head sadly, and
laid down two more of Charlie’s letters, I-

“ You owe! I dare say‘you do; I
should think you would, you poor toad,
you. ’Fnct, you can’t help it,no how, if
you was born Owen, you will live owing,
and die owing, I guess, but never mind ;
there, don’t go to being down in the
month about it ! I beg your pardon,
Sir ; I suppose you can’t help that either,
but I mean, I wouldn’t worry about it ; I
guess it is not your fault.”

“ But now my friend,” said the wor-
thy Captain, who very naturally thought
the man had come to ask charity, and
who, with the directness and generosity
of a true hearted sailor, wanted to come
to the point and relieve the poor man—
“ now, may I ask what brought you here,
what did you come here intending to do?”
The silent man now _laid down the let-
ters C-U.

“ To see me? did you? Well, that’s
a good one, and now sir, you hat-e seen
me, and I hope you are gratified. I'm
not much to look at, but then, the exhi-
bition is noways costly—grown persons
admitted gratis, and children half-price.
Walk up ladies and gentlemen, hats off
and see the show. But really, Mr. Owen
had you no other Object in coming here
to see me ?”

Mr. Owen held up a round 0.

“Nothing, that is. Well it’s rather
curious ; I guess I’d ought to treat. I
suppose you are not great at eating, but
would you not like to have something to
drink, now i” ‘

The man smiled and nodded and his eyes
sparkled, as he laid on the window two
capital I’s. '

“ Ag], cry,” said the hearty Old Captain,
laughing ; “ I understand that well
enough, ay, ay, Sirl that’s sailor fashion
and it’s according to Scripture, too, I
guess : ‘ Let your communication be aye,
ayc’—-ain’t that in the Scriptures ? I
guess it is. Well, I’ll standlreat. I am

and so, what will you have, name your
grog l”

, The man laughed silently as he chose
out the letters O-D-V.

” Eau de vie ! By the Lord Harry i
that spells French Brandy. or it used to
do so when I was a skipper. I approve
your taste, sir ; we’ll have some, and
We’ll drink to your health Mr. Oweu,and
to the health of your wife, Mrs. Owen,
and to the healths of all the five little
Owens. Lucy, my dear 1”

Here, in turning round to convey his
hospitable wishes to his daughter-in-
law, grandpa knocked his arm against
the little table, and the cover of the let-
ter box, fell with some clatter, to the
ground.

“Oh, grandpa 1” said little Charlie,
bobbing up his curly head from under the
table, whither he had plunged in pursuit
of the truant cover, ” you are awake now,
ain’t you ? I’m so glad ; please give me
another real long word. I didn’t wake
you, did I, grandpa? Mother told me
not to.”

Captain Osborn turned hastily to the
window, but the tonguelcss man was
gone, and, strange to say, a tall, white
hollyhock was growing on the very spot
where he had stood a only a moment be-
fore l

“ Have I been asleep, Charlie,” asked
the Captain. '

“ Oh yes, grandpa, ever so long i—
See l it’s most tea-time now. And I
guess you had a funny kind of a dream,
too, grandpa, for I saw you laughing in
your sleep.”

“Did I, Charlie? Well, I guess I
had avery droll dream,” said the old
man, straiteuiug himself up in his arm
chair again ; “ and I’m sorry I waked
up just as I did, that’s a fact, for I was
just getting into the spirit of the thing !’

Ayer’s Sal‘saparilla

A compOund remedy, in which we have la-
bored to produce the most effectual alterative
that can be made. It is a concentrated extract
of Para Sarsaparilln, so combined with other
substances of still greater alterativc power as
to afford an effective antidote for the diseases
Sassaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed
that such a remedy is wanted, by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their care must prove
of immense service to this large class of our
afflicted fellow-citizens. How completely this
compound will do it has been proven by exper-
iment On many Of the worst cases to be found
of the following complaints: —

The BLOOD.

This compound will be found a great pro-
moter of health, when taken in the spring, to
expel the foul humors which faster in the

Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the
reputation, of accomplishing these ends. But
the world has been egregiously deceived by
preparations of it, partly because the drug
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it, but more because many preparations,
pretending to be concentrated extracts of it,
contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilln,
or any thing else. .

During late years the public have been mis-
led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart
of Extract of Samaparilla for one dollar. Most
of these have been frauds upon the sick, for
they not only contain little, if any, Sax-supe-
rilla, but often no curative properties whatev-
er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment
has followed the use of the various extracts of
Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the
name itself is justly despised, and has become
synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend
to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the
name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we think we have ground for
believing it has virtues which are mensfib‘ " 19
by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend-
ed to cure. In order to secure their complete
eradication from the system, the remedy should
he judiciously taken according to directions on

thebottle.

Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,

has won for itself such a renown for the cure of
every variety of Throat and Lung Complaint, that
it is entirely unnecessary for us to recount the
evidence of its virtues, wherever it has been em-
ployed. As it has long been in constant use
throughout this section, we need not do more than
assure the people its quality is kept up to the best
it ever has been, and that it may be relied on to
do for their relief all it has ever been found to do.
