EVENING STAR. THE EVENING HEARTH-STONE. Gladly now we gather round it, For the totling day is done. And the gay and solemn twilight Follows down the golden sun ; ws lengthen on the pavement, Stalk like gisats through the gloom, Wander past the dusty casement, Ceatag. agp the fire-lit room ; Draw the ‘ains, close the shutters, Piace thy ippers by the fire— Though the rude wi is loudly mutter, What care we for wind sprite’s ire? What care we for outward seeming. Fickle fortune’s frown or smile, If around us love is beaming : Love can human ills beguile. "Neath the cottage roof and palace, From the peasant to the king, All are quafing from life's chalice Bubbles that enchantment bring. Grates are glowing, mosic flowing Tom those lips we love the best— Oh! the joy, the bliss of knowing ‘There are hearts on which to re: Hearts that throb with eager gladness— Hearts that echo toour own— Wath what care and haunting saduess Mingle ne’er in look or tone. Care may tread the halls of daylight, Sadness haunt the midmght hour; Bot the weird and witching twilight Brings the glowing hearth-stone’s dower.

Mr. Kexngpy, of Roxbury, has discovered in one of our common pasture w: a remedy that cures EVERY aIxp OF nUmoR, from The worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple. He has tried it in over eleven hundred cases, never failed except in two cases, both Thunder Hu- mor. He has now in his possession over one hundred certificates of its value,all within twenty mies of Boston. Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing Sore Mouth. One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of Pimples on the Face. ‘wo or three bottles will clear the system of Biles. Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst Canker in the Mouth and Stomach. Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst kind of Erysipelas. One or two botties are warranted to cure all Hu- the Eyes. Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of the Ears and Blotches among the Haur, Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and send Ulcers. . One bottle will cure Sealy Eruptions of the Skin. Two or three botties are warranted to cure the Worst kind of Ringworm. Two or three bottles are warranted to cure the most most desperate case of Rheumatism. Ringe to four bottles are warranted to cure Sait- rheumn. Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of Serofuia. A benefit 1s always experienced from the first bot- tle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quantity is taken. Nothing looks so improbable to those who have in van tried all the wonderful medicines of the day, as that a common weed growing on the pastures, and along old stone walls, should cureevery humorinthe System ; yet it isa hxed fact.
