Le ee sp eh etna. ; : eo BE A WOMAN. le moth Oft I’ve heard a gent er, As the twilight hours began, Pleading with a son on duty, Urging him to be a man, But unto her blue-eyed daughter. Though with words quite as ready Points she out the other duty— “Strive, my dear, to be a lady.” » What’s a lady? Is it something Made of hoops, and sifks and airs, Used to decorate the parlor Like the fancy rugs and chairs? Is it one that wastes on novels, Every feeling that is human? If ’tis this to be a lady, Tis not this to be a woman. Mother, then unto your daughter Speak of something higher far, Than to be mere fashion’s lady— “*Woman,”’ is a brighter star, If you, in your strong affection, Urge your son to be a true man, Urge your daughter no Jess strongly ‘To arise and be a woman. Yes a woman!—brightest model Of that light and perfect beauty, When the mind, and soul and body, Blend to work out life’s great duty. Be a Woman—naught is higher On the gilded list of fame; On the catalogue of virtue There’s no brighter, holier name, Be a Woman—on to duty, Raise the world from all that’s low Place high in the social heaven Virtue’ s fair and radiant bow! Lend thy influence to each effort That sball raise our nature human, Be not fashion’s gilded lady— Be a brave, whole-souled true woman, A Sueur Mistake.-The Sacramento Bee says a party of hunters were out a few days since, when they started and chased to bis burrow a mammoth bare, which bad eluded the hounds in pursuit, The bunters were up to the bole into which he had disappeared, when one of them volunteered to exhume him. After digging for some time, he thrust his hand down iuto the opening, seized the hare and dragged him to the light of day. Immediately the air was filled with an odor which did not arise from the presence of eau de cologne, and to the surprise of the bunters, the hare had changed both color and size. The animal which had been brought out at once opened a battery on those who surrounded him and the entire party “seceded” in rapid and complete disorder. The hare had by some necromancy been transformed into a “skunk,” the memory of whose presence still lingers in the minds of the hunters about as persistently as the odor clung to the garments which they wore atthe time. They concladed not to disturb the real animal for which they were haunting, but to retarn home tocall upon their admiring lady friends. New Dopar to Rae tae Winn.—The latest effort of genius of which we have heard, by which to raise the wind was related to us oe toag 2 A couple of scoundrels agreed that one of them should pretend to iagult a het . lady who was observed walking alone, and that the other should apparently happen up atthe instant, pitch into and drive the insulter away, aud then offer his escort to see the lady toher home. The resolution was taken on the instant, and the plan was perfectly succersful. A mock fight took place, the first man was put to flight, and the other, suggesting that the scoundrel might renew his attempt, accompanied the young lady home. There he was thanked by the father, and pretending that he bad lost his purse or pocket book in the fight, the gratefal parent banded Sim a twenty-dollar piece, which was reluctantly accepted, asa loan, It afterwards turned out that the scamp was a well known confidence man, who has frequently practiced dodges of a similar character.—[Alta. From tae “Extreme Soura.’”’—A young man in Wheeling, Virginia, got on a spree recently and after having been arrested and fined for disorderly conduct, was conveyed to a hotel by his friends, when he became frenzied with the idea that he was in the hands of an infuriated mob, and was about to suffer martyrdom for his principles. “Gentlement’’ expostulated the frantic youth, as he was burried to his room, “gentlemen! don’t injure me; don’t burt me; I am with you in sentiment and in principle; Iam from the South, gentlemen, from the extreme South! My God!’ yelled he, as he was suddenly chucked under the blankets, “T am from—from—South America!”’ Secession Wirutn Secesston.—A_ Georgia paper states that the wy of Gordon, situated on the Central Railroad, at the junetion of the road to Milledgeville, has, by an ordinance duly drawn up, signed and adopted by a meeting of the citizens’of the place, formally seceded from Wilkinson couaty, State of Georgia. The narrator proposes to call it the independent city of Gordon. The people of Gordon can probably give as good reasons for secession, and the act can as well be justified on principle, as can be the secession of the Gulf States, Inpignant.—Some dishonest dealer lately sold the editor of the Oregon Union a roll of butter whicb hada nice, fresh appearance, but was so strong that it walked off with the pancakes upon which it was spread, He mentions the circumstance, and witha a burst of indignation terrible in its fervor, . “hurls the curse of Rome’? upon the head of the offender.

Of all Diseases, the Great First Cause Springs from neglect of Nature’s laws. SUFFER NOT! When a cure is guaranteed in all stages of SECRET DISEASES, Self-abuse, Nervous Debility, Strictures, Gleet, Gravel Diabetes, Diseases of the Kidneys and Bladder, Mercurial Rheumatism, Scrofula, Pains in the Bones and Ankles, Diseases of the Langs, Throat, Noge and Eyes, Ulcers upon the Body or Limbs, Cancers, Dropsy, Epileptic Fits, St. Vitus’ Dance, and all Diseases arising from a derangement of the Sexual Organs. Such as Nervous Trembling, Loss of memory, Loss of Power, General Weakness, Dimness of Vision. with peculiar spots appearing before the eyes, Loss of Sight, Wakefulness, Dyspepsia, Liver Diseases, Eruptions upon the Face, Pain in the Back and Head, Female Irregularities, and all improper discharges of both sexes, It matters not from what cause the disease originated, however long standing or obstinate the . case, recovery is certain, and in a shorter time than a permanent cure can be effected by any other treatment, even after the disease has baffled the skill of eminent physicians and resisted all their means of cure. The medicines prescribed are pleasant, with. out odor, entirely vegetable, causing no sickness, and free from mercury or balsam. During fifteen years of practice, in Europe, the Atlantic States, and California, I have rescued from the jaws of death many thousands, who, in the last stages of the above men tioned diseases, had been given up to die by their . physicians, which warrants me in promising to the afflicted, who may place themselves under my care. 4 perfect and speedy cure. Private diseases are the greatest enemies to health, as they are the first cause of Consumption, Scrofula, and many other diseases, and should be a terror to the human family. A permanent cure is scarcely ever effected, a majority of the cases falling into the hands of incompetent per. sons, who not only fail to cure the disease, but ruin the cohstitution, filling the system with mercury, which, with the disease, hastens the sufferer into a rapid consumption. But should the disease and the treatment not cause death speedily, and the victim marries, the disease is . entailed upon the children, who are born with feeble . constitutions, and the current of life corrupted by a virus, which betrays itself in scrofula, tetter, ulcers, eruptions, and other affections of the skin, eyes, throat and lungs, entailing upon them a brief existance of suffering, and consigning them to an early . grave, Se.r-Apvse is another formidable enemy to health, for nothing else in the dread catalogue of human diseases causes so destructive a drain upon the system, drawing its thousands of victims, through a few years . of suffering, down to an untimely grave. It destroys the nervous system, rapidly wastes away the ener. gies of life, causes mental derangement, prevents the proper developement of the system, disqualifies for marriage, society, business, and all earthly happiness, and leaves the sufferer wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to consumption, and a train of evils more to be dreaded than death itself, With the fullest confidence I assure the unfortunate victims of Self-abuse, that a permanent and speedy cure can be effected, and with the abandonment of ruinous . practices my patients can be restored to robust, vigorous health, Irregelarities, and all diseases of males and females, . treated on principles established by fifteen years of practice, and sanctioned by thotsands of the most remarkable cures.

When a cure is guaranteed in all stages of SECRET DISEASES, Self-abuse, Nervous Debility, Strictures, Gleet, Gravel Diabetes, Diseases of the Kidneys and Bladder, Mercurial Rheumatism, Scrofula, Pains in the Bones and Ankles, Diseases of the Langs, Throat, Noge and Eyes, Ulcers upon the Body or Limbs, Cancers, Dropsy, Epileptic Fits, St. Vitus’ Dance, and all Diseases arising from a derangement of the Sexual Organs. Such as Nervous Trembling, Loss of memory, Loss of Power, General Weakness, Dimness of Vision. with peculiar spots appearing before the eyes, Loss of Sight, Wakefulness, Dyspepsia, Liver Diseases, Eruptions upon the Face, Pain in the Back and Head, Female Irregularities, and all improper discharges of both sexes, It matters not from what cause the disease originated, however long standing or obstinate the . case, recovery is certain, and in a shorter time than a permanent cure can be effected by any other treatment, even after the disease has baffled the skill of eminent physicians and resisted all their means of cure. The medicines prescribed are pleasant, with. out odor, entirely vegetable, causing no sickness, and free from mercury or balsam. During fifteen years of practice, in Europe, the Atlantic States, and California, I have rescued from the jaws of death many thousands, who, in the last stages of the above men tioned diseases, had been given up to die by their . physicians, which warrants me in promising to the afflicted, who may place themselves under my care. 4 perfect and speedy cure. Private diseases are the greatest enemies to health, as they are the first cause of Consumption, Scrofula, and many other diseases, and should be a terror to the human family. A permanent cure is scarcely ever effected, a majority of the cases falling into the hands of incompetent per. sons, who not only fail to cure the disease, but ruin the cohstitution, filling the system with mercury, which, with the disease, hastens the sufferer into a rapid consumption. But should the disease and the treatment not cause death speedily, and the victim marries, the disease is . entailed upon the children, who are born with feeble . constitutions, and the current of life corrupted by a virus, which betrays itself in scrofula, tetter, ulcers, eruptions, and other affections of the skin, eyes, throat and lungs, entailing upon them a brief existance of suffering, and consigning them to an early .

grave, Se.r-Apvse is another formidable enemy to health, for nothing else in the dread catalogue of human diseases causes so destructive a drain upon the system, drawing its thousands of victims, through a few years . of suffering, down to an untimely grave. It destroys the nervous system, rapidly wastes away the ener. gies of life, causes mental derangement, prevents the proper developement of the system, disqualifies for marriage, society, business, and all earthly happiness, and leaves the sufferer wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to consumption, and a train of evils more to be dreaded than death itself, With the fullest confidence I assure the unfortunate victims of Self-abuse, that a permanent and speedy cure can be effected, and with the abandonment of ruinous . practices my patients can be restored to robust, vigorous health, Irregelarities, and all diseases of males and females, . treated on principles established by fifteen years of practice, and sanctioned by thotsands of the most remarkable cures. Medicines, with full directions, sent to any part of the State, Oregon and Washington Territory, by patients communicating by letter, their symptoras, Business correspondence strictly confidential.
