An Elegy on the Death of a Mad Dog. _
(With Notes, Suppositions, Em endations and V ari-
ations, by JOHN A. NArEs, Esq, sometimes called
JACK A. NATEs.)
Good people all, of every sort,
Give ear unto my song;
And if you find it wondrous short,
It cannot hold you long.
In Washington there was a mam!
Of whom the world might say,
That still a godly race he ran
Whene’cr he went to pruy.2
A kind and gentle heart he had
To comfort friends and foes ;
The naked every day he clad—
When he put on his clothes.3
And in that town a dog4 was found,
As many dogs there be,
Both mongrel, puppy, whelp and hound,
And curs of low degree.
This dog and man at first were friends,
But when a biquc began,
The dog, to gain his private ends,
Went mad and bit the man.5
Around from all the neighboring streets6
The wondering neighbors ran,
And swore the dog had lost his wits
To bite so good a man.
The wound it seemed both sore and and
To every Christian eye,
And while they swore the dog was mad,
They swore the man would die}?
But soon a wonder came to light
That showed the rogues they lied-—
The man recovered of the bite,
The dog it was that died.
1 This man is our dear old UNCLE SAM. a good
old fellow in the main. 5,

About Children.
The Professor, in the Atlantic, has the
following paragraps about the young
folks : '
“In early years, while the child “feels
its life in every limb,” it lives in the body
and for the body to a very great extent.
It ought to be so. There have been
many very interesting children who have
shown a. wonderful indifference to the
things of earth and an extraordinary de-
velopment of the spiritual nature. There
is a perfect literature of their biographies,
all alike in their essentials ; the same ‘dis-
inclination to the usual amusements of
childhood ;’ the same remarkable sensi-
bility ; the same doeility ; the same con'
scientiousness; in short, an almost uni-
form character, marked by beautiful
traits, which we look at with a painful
admiration. It will be found that most
of these children are the subjects of some
constitutional unfituess for living, the
most frequent of which I need not men-
tion. They are like the beautiful, blush-
ing, half-grown fruit that falls before its
time,because its core is gnawed out. They
have their meaning—they do not live in
vain—but they are windfalls. I am con-
vinced that many healthy children are
injured morally by being forced to read
too much about these little meek suffer-
ers and their spiritual exercises. Here
is a boy that loves to run, swim, kick
football, turn somersets, make faces,
whittle, fish, tear his clothes, coast,skate,
fire crackers, blow squash “totters,” cut
his name on fences, read about Robinson
Crusoe, and Sinbad the sailor, eat the
widest angled slices of pie and untold
cakes and candles, crack nuts with his
back teeth and bite gut the better part
of another boy’s apple with his front
ones, turn up coppers, “stick” knives,call
names, throw stones, knock off hats, set
mouse-traps, chalk door-steps, “out be-
hind” anything on wheels or runners,
whistle through his teeth, ‘holler’ fire on
slight occasions, run after soldiers, pat-
ronize an engine company, or, in other
words, ‘blow for tub No. 11,’ or whatev-
er it may bc—isn’t that a pretty nice
sort of a boy, though he has not got
anything the matter with him that takes
the taste of this world out?
N ow, when you put into such a hot-
blooded, hard-listed, round-checked little
rogue’s hand a sad looking volume or
pamphlet, with the portrait of a thin,
white-faced child, whoN life is really as
much a training for death as the last
month of a. condemned criminal’s exis-
tence, what does he find in common with
his own overflowing and exulting sense
of vitality and the experiences of the
doomed offspring of invalid parents ?—
The time comes when we have learned to
understand the music of sorrow, the
beauty of resigned suffering, the holy
light that plays over the pillow of those
who die before their time, in humble hope
and trust. But it is not until he has
worked his way through the period of
honesty, hearty animal existence, which
every robust child should make the most
of,——not until he has learned the use of
his faculties, which is its first duty,—that
a boy of courage and animal vigor is in a
proper state to read these tearful records
Of premature decay. I have no doubt
that disgust is implanted in the minds of
many healthy children by early surfeits
of pathological piety, I do verily be-
lieve that He who took children in his
arms and blessed them, loved the healthi-
est aud most playful of them just as well
as those who were richest in the tubercu-
lous virtues. I know What I am talking
about, and there are more parents in this
country who will be willing to listen to
what I say than there are fools to pick a
quarrel with me. In the sensibility and
the sanctity which often accompany pre-
mature decay, I see one of the most
beautiful instances of the principle of
nevolcncc. But to got the spiritual ny-
gicuc of robust natures out of the chv-p-
tionable regimen of invalid; i< just silli-
ply whatwe Professors cull “bad praw-
licc ;” and i know by (‘x[.)criclicu illnl.
there are worthy people who not only
try it on their own children, but actually
force it on their neighbors.” '
__._........._____
MATTERS IN KENTUCKY.—The Louis-
ville Joumal protests against the unjust
impression conveyed in Adjt.-Gen. Thom-
as’ report concerning the action of the
loyal men of Kentucky. It says the
State will soon have twenty-five full regi-
ments in the field, and that enlistment of
troops goes forward faster than the Gov-
ernment is able to arm them. It must
not be expected that she alone can heat
back the rebels from her soil—she has
not the force to do it. But, it says:
“We do not look for ‘Kentucky to
achieve impossibilities but we do 100K for
herto perform her duty; and our faith that
she will do so triumphantly was never
higher or more unwavering than it is at
this moment. Kentucky, we say to the
friends of the country everywhere, is com-
ing up nobly to the trying but grand and
vital work before her, and whatever
serves, no matter how, to produce the
contrary impression, is most unjust to
her, as well as injurious to the common
cause. She has thus far equaled our
most sauguue expectations in her behalf,
and she is beginning to surpass them.”
.A.»
WAIT—I saw the proprietor of a large
garden stand at his fence and call over a
poor neighbor.
“Would you like some grapes ?”
“Yes, and thankful to you !” was
the ready anSwer.
“Well, then, bring your basket.”
The basket was quickly brought and
handed over the fence. The owner took
it and disappeared among the vines ; but
I marked that he was depositing in if
all the rich alid various clusters from the
fruitful labyrinth in which llehad hid him-
self. The woman stood at the fence in the
meantime, quiet and hopeful. At length
he reappeared with a well replenished
basket, saying :
“I have made you wait a. good while,
but you know, the longer you have to
wait, the more grapes.”
It is so, thought I, with the proprietor
of all things. He says to me, and to all
“What shall I give thee? Ask and
thou shalt receive.” So I bring my
vessel, my needy but capacious soul. He
disappears. I am not always so patient
and trustful as the poor woman. Some-
times I cry out, “How long? how long?”
At last he comes to me—how richly la-
den ?—and kindly chides my impatience,
saying, “Have I made thee wait long?
See what I have been treasuring up for
thee all the while i” Then I look, and
behold l fruits more richer than I asked
or hoped for ; and I pour out my heart’s
thanks to my generous benefactor, and
grive that I distrusted him ; and I carry
away my burden with joy, and find that
the longer he makes me wait, the more
he gives.
.>
How A DRUNKEN LOVER LOOKS._—Ill a
“Life for a Life,” the authoress thus
truthfully portrays it :—-“I have been
thinking how horrible it must be to see
anybody one cares for, drunk—the'honest
eyes dull and meaningless ; the wise lips
jabbering foolishness; the whole face and
figure, instead of being what one likes to
look at, takes pleasure to see in the same
room, even, growing ugly, irrational, dis-
gusting—more like a beast than a man.
Yet some women have to bear it, have
to speak kindly to their husbands, hide
their bruitishness and keep them from Ina-
'king worse fools of themselves than they
can help. I have seen it done, not mere-
ly by working-men’s wives, but lady-wives
in drawing-rooms. Ithink if I were mar-
ried, and saw my husband the least over-
come by liquor, not ‘drunk’ it may be,
butjust excited, silly, otherwise than his
natural self, it would nearly drive me
wild. Less on my own account than his.
To see him sink—not for a. great crime,
but a contemptible, cowardly bit Of sen-
sualism—from the height where my love
had placed him ; to have to take care of
him, to pity him—ay, and I might pity
him—but I think the full glory and pas-
sion of my love would (1 e out,» then and
there, forever.

A CALIFORNIA WIDow.—Capt. Salt-
water says his first essay to effect a. mat-
rimonial character resulted in a manner
so discouraging that he don’t believe he’ll
ever be induced to try it again. The
captain being out of service for some
months, conceived a passion for a rather
mysterious young lady boarding in the
same hotel. Says the _ captain, “I con-
veyed her round to shops, shows, balls,
theatres, churches, and every other place
of amusement and information, and at
last, when I thought things had gone
about far enough, ‘1 squares my yards
and says I, just as cool as a powder mon-
key—“I’ve been thinking I’d like to be
spliced”
“Spliced ?” says she, as artlcss as a
turtle dove.
“Spliced,” said I, “and if you’ve a no-
tion, why—I’m ready to share my luck
and dunnagc with you, ma’am ” ,
She looked sort of taken back at first,
but she goes about and says—
"Captain, I’ve been thinkiugif my bus-
band don’t write soon, and send me some
money and a gold watch from Californy,
I’d just as lieve marry somebody else as
not, and if you wait a few days I’ll give
you the preference.”
Her husband had been gone to the
Pacific just four months, and here was a
Californy widow ! “I stood off after
that,” said the Captain.

DR. J. 0. Arts. Sir: I have been repeatedly Cured of
the worst headache any body can have by a dose or two
of your Pills. It seems to arise from a foul stomach, which
they cleanse at once. If they will cure others as they do
me, the fact is worth knowing.

DEPARTMENT or THE INTERIOR,
WASHINGTON, D. 0., 7 Feb, 1856.}
SIR: I have used your Pills in my general and hospim
practice ever since you made them, and cannot hesitate to
say they are the best cathartic we employ. Their regu-
lating action on the liver is quick and decided, consequent-
ly they are an admirable remedy for derangements of that
organ. Indeed, I have seldom found a case of bilious dis-
ease so obstinate that it did not readily yield to them.

POST OFFICE, HABTLA‘ND, LN. 00., MICE, Nov. 16, 1855.
DR. Am: Your Pills are theperfection of medicine.
They have done my wife more good than I can tell you.
She had been sick and pining away for months. went
off to be doctored at great expense, but got no better. She
then commenced taking your Pills, which soon cured her,
by expelling large quantities of worms (dead) from her
y. They afterwards cured her and our two children
of bloody dysentery. One of our neighbors had it bad,and
my wife cured him with two doses of your Pills, while
others around as paid from five to twenty dollars doctors’
bills, and lost much time, without being cured entirely
even then. Such a medicine as yours, which is actually
good and honest, will be prized here.

DR. ArER: Your Pills are the paragon of an that in
great in medicine. They have cured my little daughter
of ulcer-one sores upon her hands and feet that had proved
incurable for years. Her mother had been long grievous-
ly afflicted with blotches and pimples on her skin and in
her hair. Afler our child was cured, she also tried your
Pills, and they have cured her. ASA MORGRIDGE,

HONORED Sin : I should be ungrateful for the relief your
skill has brought me if I did not report 'my case to you.
A cold settled in my limbs and brought on excruciating
nenmlgic pains, which ended in chronic rheumatism.
Notwithstanding I had the best of physicians, the disease
grew worse and worse, until, by the advice of your excel-
lent agent in Baltimore, Dr. Mackenzie, I tried your Pills.
Their effects were slow, but sure. By psi-severing in the
use of them, I am now entirely well.

and for the relief of consumptive patients in advanced
stages of the disease.
We need not speak to the public of its virtues.
Throughout every town, and almost every hamlet of the
American States, its wonderful cures of pulmonary com-
plaints have made it already known. Nay, few are the
families in any civilized country on this continent with-
out some personal experience of its effects; and fawn-yet
the communities any where which have not among them
some living trophy of its victory over the subtle and dan-
gerous diseases of the throat and lungs. While it is the
most powerful antidote yet known to man for the formi-
dable and dangerous diseases of the pulmonary organs, it
is also the pleasantest and safest remedy that can be en-
layer! for infants and young persons. Parents should
ve it in store against the insidious enemy that weak
upon them unprepared. We have abundant grounds to
believe the Cherry Helm-at save: more lives by the con-
sumptions it prevents than those it cures. Keep it by
you, and cure your colds while they are curable, nor neg-
lect them until no human skill can master the inexorable
canker that, fastened on the Vitals, eats your life away.
All know the dreadful fatality of lung disorders, and as
they know too the virtues of this remedy, we need not do
more than to assure them it is still made the best it can
be. We spare no cost, no care, no toil to produce it the
most perfect possible, and thus afi‘ord those who rely on
it the best agent which our skill can furnish for their core.
