EVENING STAR. ANGEL MUSIC. When twilight weeps ‘neath ber azure veil, And the sweet flowers sigh as the day grows pale, Then an angel Pompei er pe wines And a golden harp in her hand she ‘ Soft, sweet and low, a3 Rich numbers flow, And I bush my breath while the angel sings! Ob! the love rays fall from her dew filled eye, Like the soft star beams from the twilight sky, And she fans my brow with her fragrant wings, While she wot yt ri ta string; Rich numbers flow, 7 And! weep for joy while the angel sings' Like the soft south-winds,when he woos the flowers. Like the glad bird’s note in his love-wreathed bowers. Like the thri’ling sigh of the winds harp-strings, Are rapture tones that the angel sings! Soft, sweet and low, Giad breathings flow, And I dream of love while the angel sings ' Like the plaintive voice of the moaning pine, Like she wild, wild wail of the heaving brine Like bm groans that sweep on the nig’ t-wind’s ings, Is the strange sad song that the angel sings! Darx, deep and low, “_ Sad moan! flow, And I weep o’er the lost wnile the angel sings! ‘Then a lofty strain on the rich barp swells, And the soul of bliss in its music dwells Ana the tide of song o’er the giowing strings Flows fresh aud free from the Eden springs ; Soft, sweet aad low, Rich breathings flow, And I dream of Heaven while the angel sings! See _ Eg” Lager Beer has been adopted by the Upper Ten of New York, and bids fair to su- rsede all other fashionable beverages. The ew York Mirror says that between the first and second acts of Don Giovanni, at the Acad- emy of Music, the other night, no less than three hundred and sixty glasses of Lager Beer were drunk inthe saloon. It goes on to congratulate the public upon its growing taste for a beverage which, it seems to think, is very wholesome, and is destined to ‘‘ drive rot-gut rum, camphene brandy. and vitrilic liquors generally, out of the market.’’ It ia presumed that a taste for Lager Beer will be one of the evidences of refinement in New York, and tiat a man’s or a woman's standing in society will be adjusted according to the number of glasses that can be taken. The star of Lager Beer is evidently in the ascend- ant. A Great Cattie Raisen.—The greatest cattle raiser in this country, perhaps in the world, is B. F Harris, Esq., of Champagne, Ill. A late number of the Albany Knicker- bocker thusspeaks of his operations : “ Some of the finest cattle we ever saw were bronght to thiscity last Saturday on the Cen- ral Railroad. There were thirty-four head, with an average weight of two thousand pounds. They sold for ten cents a pound live weight, which is equal to $240 each. They were grown by B ¥. Harris, of Champagne, Illinois, who -has one hundred head of the same weight still to bringto market Mr. Harris is one of the largest stock farmers in the world. His farm contains four thousand acres. He keeps usually about 500 head of cattle and 600 head of hogs. About the first of May he turns the cattle on the prairie, and they graze under the control of mounted herdsmen who penthem at night. By the first of autumn his herds, with the wide range of rich prairie, reach the climax of bovine —— and a more attractive sight cannot found. Through the winter those intended for spring sale are stall-fed, requiring 100 bushels of corn to feed a good sized ox In the winter of 1348-49 this gentleman stall-fed 982 cattle, and bought 56,000 bushels of corn. In the year 1853 Mr. Harris fed and sold a hundred head of beeves; their average weight was 1,866 pounds. These were the extraordi- mary lot which took the premium at the World's Pair at New York. The average of cattle herds usually marketed wll not exceed 1,500 pounds gross.’’ —_——_— MOVEMENTS OF OCEAN STEAMERS. FROM THE UNITED azazee. Alma (Fr.). George Law. Aspinwa'l.. America iverpool..

Back, and bimbs, Female Complaints, &c.. &c. Indeed, very few are the diseases which a purgative medicine {s not more or less required, and much sickness and suffering might be prevented if a harmless but effectual Cathartic were more freely used No person gan feel well whilea costive habit of body prevails; besides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timed; and judicous use of a good purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Fever symptoms, and Bilious derangements. They tend to become or produce the deep seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses all overtheland. Hencea reliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, and this Pill has nm perfected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, and Pa- tients, has showa resulis surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have been effected beyond belief, were they not sub- stantiated by persons of exalted positions and character as to forbid the suspicigs of un- truth. Among the eminent gentlemen who have testi- fied in favor of these Pills, we may mention: Doct. A. A. HAYES, Analytical Chemist of Boston, and State Aszayer of Massechusetis, whose high Professiona! character is endorsed by the Hon. EDWARD EVERETT, Ssnator of the United States ROBERT C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives ABBOTT LAWRENCE, Minister Plen., to Engiand {JOHN B. FITZPARICK, Catholic Bisho of Boston; also Dr. J.R. CHILTON, Pract!
