Life is to have no Work
to do.
B*! jn who at the anvil toil,
And strike the founding blow,
Wkm, from the burniog iron' breast,
The «parka fly to and fro,
While answering to the hammer' ring,
And flit's inteneer glow—
01 while we feel 'tie hard to toll
And sweat the long day through,
Beaaember it is harder still
To hare no work to do.
Bo! ye who till the stubborn soil,
Whose hard hands guide the plow,
Who bead beneath the summers sun,
With burning cheek and brow—
To deem the curse still clings to earth.
From olden times till now—
But while ye feel 'tis hard to Ail
And labor all day through,
Remember it is harder still
To bare no work to do.
Ho|! ye who plough the sea's blue fields—
Who ride the restless wave,
Beneath whose gallant vessel's keel
There lies a yawning grave.
Around whose bark the wintry winds
Like fiends of fury rave—
O I while ye feel 'tis hard to toil
And labor long hours through,
. Beaaember it is harder still
To have no work to do.
Bo I ya upon whose fever'd cheeks
The hetie glow is bright,
Whose mental toil wears out the day
And half the weary night,
Who labor for the souls of men,
Champions of truth and right—
Although you feel your toil is hard,
Even with this glorious view,
Remember it is harder still
To have no work todo.
Bo t all who labor—all who strive—
Ta wield a lofty power ;
Do with your might, do with your strength,
Fill every golden hour;
The glorious privilege to do
Is man's most noble power—
- O;! to your birthright and yourselves.
To your own souls be true!
A weary, wretched life is theirs
Who have no work todo.
Paddy and thb Lovers, or an Unsocj-
able Bedfellow.—A few months since a
ion,of Erin, about eight o'clock one even-
ing called at a country inn in the western
part of Pennsylvania, and demanded lodg-
ings for the night. It was evident from liis
appearance and actions that he and liquor
baa been quite jolly companions throughout
the day. The landlord was a lazy, good
natnred soul, and had imbibed rather freely
that day himself.
"If 1 give yon a light and tell you where
the room is, you can find the place?" said
the landlord.
"Ocb, and it's meself that can do that most
illigantly. Just show me the way, an I'll
j6n a it as aisy as the Holy Virgin showers
4own blessings upon the siuful," rejoined
¿he irishman.
Tit xtUeccluus were given falm and also a
«AQdle. ¡le was directed to go to a room
An fbe second floor in the house. By the
time be readied the top of the stairs, his
light had .become extinguished and he had
forgotten in what direction he was to go.—
Seeing rays of light issuing from a room, the
door of which stood «ligütly ajar, he recon-
noítered the inside of the room, and found
it to eontain a bed in which lay a man, and
A stand with a small lighted lamp npon it.
Feeling disinclined to make Any further
search for the room to which he had been
directed, he divested himself .of bis c lothing
•nd quietly crept into bed. He had been in
but a few moments, when a young lady a.ui
gentleman entered the room. The Irish-
nqan eyed them closely. They seated them-
selves on the chairs, in close proximity to
•aeb other, and after chatting merrily for a
short time the young man threw his arm
•round her,waist in a very cousingly manner,
and imprinted a kiss upon her tempting lips.
There was a witchery in it which demanded
• repetition. The scene amused the Irish-
nan vastly, and being free from selfishness,
be concluded that his sleeping companion
•hould be a participant with him in the en-
joyment of the scene, uedged liitn, but his
companion stirred not. Ho put his hand up-
on him, and found that lie was tightly lock-
ed in the embrace of death. Synonymous
with this discovery, he bounded out of bed,
exclaiming:
"Murther! murther! Howly Saints of
Hi van protect me!"
He bad scarcely touched the floor with
his feet before the young lady and gentle-
man were making rapid strides towards the
stairway, terror being depicted on their coun-
tenances. They bad just reached the top
of the stairs when the Irishman enmo lash-
ing along, as though the fiends of Erebus
were close at his heels, intent on making
him their prey, and the whole three went
tumbling down the stairs, and it is hard to
determine which reached the foot of the
•tairs first. The landlord stood aghast as
the Irishman rushed into the bar-room, with
nothing between him and nudity but a gar-
ment vulgarly styled a shirt, the hair on
his head stauding upon end, his eyeballs
ready to leap from their sockets, and he
gasped for breath. It was a sight which
would have made a man laugh who had worn
a vinegar face from the day of his birth.—
Nothing could induce him to seek a bed that
night again.
When the young lady and gentleman
found that it was not the corpse that had so
unceremoniously bounded from the bed, they
returned to the rooms, (they being the watch-
ers for the night,) and doubtless commenced
their courting at the poiut where it .had so
suddenly broken off.
Mrs. Partington says that she did not
marry her second husband because she loved
the male sex, but just bccause he was the
•ise of the first protector, and would come
to good to wear out his old clothes.
A man who dosen't take a newspaper, is
pot only poor, but will always remain so.

advantages in life. Folks who labor for

occupy a middle ground between the hastily writ-
ten news-items, crude.speculations, and flying ru-
mors of the newspaper, and tho ponderous 'lome
of the historiau, written long after the living in-
terests in tha facts lie records shall have passed
away. The progress of the War in the East occu
pies a large space in their paces. Every move-
ment is closcly criticised, wiictlier of friend or of
foe; and all short-comings fearlessly pointed out.—

the world of letters, being considered indispensable
to the scholar and tho professional man, while to

U17SNIA SALVE.
VEGETABLE OINTMENT.
ESTABLISH!!) IS 1822.
DURING the memorable campaign of 1812, at-
tention was first drawn to the remarkable suc-
cess which follows the use of this Salve, and the
case of an old soldier, who was cured by it of a se-
vere wonnd received in action, paiticularly attract-
ed notice. This veteran afterwards emigrated to
our own country and in gratitude for some favors
rendered him, divulged tho secret of its preparation.
This was the origin of the Russia Suit*.
In all past ages, ointments have stood prominent
among remedies, and the practice of anointing with
such, is often referred to in the scriptures; but in la-
ter times, in consequence of too little attention hav-
ing been paid to their composition, they have not
been esteemed at their proper value. Here, how-
ever, is a remedy for a multitude of ailments, which
hna stood the test of scientific research, as well as of
experience. As a Home remedy, it is invaluablo, sup-
plying as it does, a prompt relief in nearly all eases
of accident; where other remedies have failed it has
succeeded, and never has its use been otherwise
than beneficial.
It is admitted by all, that a great proportion of
human diseases are the consequence of lifflamation
—now common sense would point to a remedy which
might reduce such. But it is a fact that nine out of
ten of the vaunted ointments of the day increase
instead of allaying it. The Russia Salte, by a pecu-
liar action on the skin, and through it, on the sys-
tem, allays inflammatory action in a very remarka-
ble degree; thns preventing its extentlon, aud per-
haps final result In death. At the same time being
of a softening and emollient nature, it opens the
pores, stimulates the absorbents and glands, and
Ítraduces a healthy action of every part to which it
s applied.
Both in summer and winter affections, it Is alike
useful—aud in every climate it retains its virtues.
The miners of California use it extensively to allay
the inflammation produced by the use of the leaves
of the Scrub oak. Travelers on foot or on horse-
back, find it a certain remedy and preservative in
cases of chafing; and the delicate lady when ac-
quainted with Its power of banishing freckles, and
clearing the complexion, lays aside her cold creain
and cosmetics, and uses Russia Suite... Tau, sun-
burns, blisters are speedily cured by its use, and in
deeper seated troubles such as cancers, ulcers, erysip-
elas, ifc., it may be used in conjunction with reme-
dies prescribed by a physician, not only irithout dan-
Í;er but with real benefit. With this remedy in the
lOUBe, indeed a physician, in nine cases out of ten,
is needless, for it is itself a house doctor! In fami-
lies it is always necessary, for the slightest cut or
scratch, the deesost flesh wound or scald, or severe
burn, are at once relieved by it. It is its every day
universal usefulness that constitutes its chieif value.
A selection from the numerous testimonials of its
virtues might be given by the proprietors, but they
prefer to let it rest on its own merits, which will not
fail to recommcnd it to all. The following are a-
mong the diseases to which the Russia salte is ap-
plicable, and in which It has sovereign power.

impurity of the blood-
The R. R. R. theory holds the truth of the above
maxims, for if a person be in a state ot perfect
health, each artery and vein must carry to and
from the heart its allotted proportion of blood, and
when any set of vessels refuse (be the cause what it
may,) to carry their proportion, the current of blood
becomes dammed up—in other words a conjestion
takes place, giving pain to a greater or less extent.
Here, then, is th^beginning of diseased action,
which, if not relieml, will soon run into inflama-
tion, and the disease become estublished. Diseas-
ed action being once established, the blood becomes'
Impure, and the regnlarity of action on the part of
the liver, skin, bowels, &c., is sure to be interrupt-
ed, and the general system, by sympathising with
the local complaint, becomes involved in the diffi-
culty Thut this is the true stato of the case let
any one call to mind his symptoms on catching
cold. The local difficulty may be a sore throat,
which is a congestion ot the blood, amounting
(sometimes) to an infiamation about the throat,
owing to a previous deranged state of the circula-
tion, and he will remember that his bowels become
costive, his liver deranged, or his skin dry and fe-
verish, his head stopped up, pains and aches in his
bones, joints, down the back, head aches, discharge
of water from the eyes aud nose, with many other
unpleasant and painful symptoms. Had he used
Radway's Ready Relief when the congestion was
setting in, as an application to the throat, and swab
lowed a dose of the Regulators, he would have bro-
ken up the congestion, aud restored the regularity
ou the part of the liver, skiu, bowels, &c., which
had been broken in upon by the effects of the sore
throat. Regularity being again established, the
impure blooii is soon purified, and the circulation
again equalized, and the health restored.
MADWAY'S REGULATORS possesses the great
power of Equalizing the Circulation, and regulating
all the organs of the body to a natural and healthy
action.
RADWAY'S REGULATORS possesses proper-
ties that all other Pills are deficient in, aud are the
only Pills in use that can be taken for any length
of time without weakeuing the system.
They always leave the system in a healthy condi-
tion—the Liver, Bowels, Heart, Panel-ease, Kid-
neys, and Skin regular, and ready to discharge their
several functions without recourse to umiatural
means;
Every dose of Radway's Regulators that are taken
will intuse, new lifo, fresh strength, and sound
health to the weak and feebie body.
AS A FAMILY PHYSIC,
one or two of Railway's Regulators will answer a
better purpose than cartor oil, common pills, blue
pills, Lee's or billious pills, or any other cathartic,
biliiuus, drastic, purgatives, salts, or senate. The
Regulaiors will quickly open the bowels, force a
natural passage, and will leave the whole system
in a healthy state.

How the R. R. R. Remedies raised Mrs. Sarah A.
Hough from a Crippled and Helpless Condition, to
Sound Health, after the skill of four of the most learn
ed Physicians in New York hud failed to relieve her,
Drs. Parker, Reese, Wardle, and Muctclan.
READ HEK LETTER-
JANUARY 8, 1856.
Messrs. Radway If Co: I have tried your Ready
Relief, and had my ioints rubbed with it, and I ne-
ver felt pain after the first ten minutes 1 was rub-
bed with it up to the present time. Sirs, 1 do not
know what to compare it to but a charm; for it is a
mystery to me. 1 was a cripple for two years, and
had not the proper use of my limbs for three years.
I was worn aown to a skeleton. I then commenc-
ed the use of your Ready Relief, Resolvent and Re-
gulators. The pain left me in ten minutes, nnd 1
began to gain strength very fast, and could walk
with ease in a few weeks. Before I heard of your
Remedies, 1 was taken to Dr. Parker, Dr. Reese,
Dr. Wardle, Dr. Maclelan, and many other physi-
sians in this city, I cannot now remember. 1 was
completely pulled to pieces by them. My constitu-
tion was broken up with medicines that did me no
use of y our Remedies, I am as strong as ever. I
had the common rheumatism—infiamatory and
chronic—and the palsy. You can publish this, if
you like. SARAH A. HOUGH,

December 3lst, 1855. J
I, Jcptha Gardinicr, of the above place, do pub-
lish, that for many years I have been afflicted with
rheumatism, and ou the evefting of December 20th,
JSoi>, while walking in my yard, I fell with great
violence on the ice, bruising the knee pan very
badly. I further certify that on the above day, Mr
John J. Benedict., a traveling agent of Radway &
Co., arrived at this place, and hearing of my heavy
tall and the terrible complaint that attlictcd me, rec-
ommended me to apply Radway's Ready Relief
which 1 did, and in a very short ti.ne the pain ceased,
the swelliug ubated, and 1 am now abie to walk
without the use of my cane, free from pain. 1 have
tried several other remedies but fouud no relief. In
cases of extreme pain, Radway's Ready Relief is
far preferable to all other remedies; if any one
doubs the truth uf this certificate, let them call on
me at my residence, or write to ine at iny residence
at Dresuen, Tenn., and 1 will give them full in-
formation. JEPTHA UARDIN1ER.
For years Mr. Gardinier had suffered the tortur-
ing pains of Rheumatism, he was unable to walk
without the help of a stick. On the '-i'Jth of Decem-
ber, he first tried the R. R. Relief—on the 31st he
could walk without any oid and free from pain.—
Let all who are crippled or bed ridden, think of this.
FEVER AND AGUE
Radway's Ready Relief and Radwav Regulators,
are Positive curatives for Ague and Fever. Let
those afflictcd take from 2 to a of Radway's Rogu-
lators every uight, and a tea spooufull ot Rudwuy
Relief in water, in rising in the morning, and twice
during the day—those will soon free your system
from the poison of Ague.
How the R R R Remedies restore Consumptives to
health, stops the ravages of decay, heals Ulcers i

Chronic Coughs, aud all diseases and
complaints of-the Throat, Lungs
and Chest:
Persons *bo h«v bs®n troubled ->-ith chronic
■ore throats, tubercles in the lungs, bronchitis, or
K- ndnlar affections, «re informad that the B. It. K.
medies will enre them of these terrible eoss-
Slaints on the same principle. Let the Raady Re-
ef be applied externally on the chest and around
the throat—this will effect an important and won-
derfully beneficial result. It will get up a power-
ful counter irritating force, and withdraw from th«
{;lands of the throat all congested blood thattnay
nterfere with the respiratory organs. Persona
troubled with asthma, hard and difficult breathing,
sharp pain when taking a long breath, will find an
immediate relief after an application of RadWay'a
Ready Relief. In cases where the lungs are diseas-
ed, we give Radway's Resolvent. The actidn of
this medicine resolves awav the diseased deposit-
it heals all ulcers, and removes tubercles. We have
known persons who had no idea of ever rising ont
of a sick bed, to be restored to sonnd health, with
not a particle of consumptive material left in their
bodies to hasten decay. Radway's Regulators in
these cases keep the svstem regular, aua equalizes
the circulation of the blood*

OAA AGENTS WANTED.—One for every
Ol/lf county in the Sunny South, to sell th
most splendid history ever published, entitled,
THE NEW WORLD.
In two volumes bound in one, by Henry Howard
Brownell, A. M. In presenting this work to the
public, the publishers believe that they are supply-
ing a desideratum, the want of which has In en long
felt by the reading community, and especially by
the people at large. No other work, much less any
other single volume, contains the complete and ex-
tended view of entire American history which is here
presented. The plan and execution of the'book are
entirely new; the arrangement of the various Eu-
ropean Provinces under their respective national
heads, and tlic subdivision of these into separate Col
onies and States—due chronological order being
preserved, will, it is thought, make it of peculiar Val-
ue as a book of reference, and greatly facilitate a
clear and accurate knowledge ofgencralhlstory. Also

cution , of the gradual extension of freedom and
civilization; ana the final settlement of political re-
lations on their present basis. These books com-
prise a complete history of the world, in four vol-
umes bound in two.
The character of the illustrations in these volumes
