" no YOU TAKE mi: PAPERS ?"

One of our exchanges has a good story about a man who never took a paper, but depended upon the neighbors for the news. It is worth being told over a dozen times, so we repeat it for the benefit of our readers.

“ Exciting times these," said we to our neigh- bor Slow, after casting a hasty glance ever the late foreign nevvs.

‘ Eh 7’ said he, as if he didn’t exactly under- stand.

‘ About ilie news in the East, we mean.’

‘ IIadn’t heard of it. What’: it all about? well. them Down Easters always was a quarrel- soine set of folks.’

‘ Oh, it isn’t theythat are fighting; its Turkey Ind Russia; and ‘nglantl and France have de- clared in favour or Turlrey.—Napoleon has sent out quite a fleet.’

‘ Nlpoleon ! Why, I thought he was dead 1008 130- The history says so.’

‘ Yes, but this is a nephew of his—LouisNapo- Icon they call him. He is the Emperor of the

‘ranch.’

‘ W,hy Ithought Louis Phillippe was the Em-

ror

‘ Yes, so he was, but he's dead now.’

‘ Well, that beats all.’

‘ It seems,’ we continued, after a pause, ‘that the Nebraska bill has been disposed of.’

' I-lung, I suppose you mean. Well, I'm glad of it. He deserves it.’

‘ What for I’ asked we, puzzled.

‘ Why, anybody that’ll keep a dozen wives deserves to be disposed of, as you call it.’

‘ What do you mean I’

‘ Why, isn’t this Nebraska Bill the same man I've heard tell of, that has set up for a prophet somewhere, and married I don’t know how many vrivesl’,

‘ Oh, no ; that’s quite a different man, Brigham Young, who lives up in Uta I.

‘ Then who is Nebraska Bill, any how ?’

‘ It isn’t a man at all. It is a’law proposing to

anntil the Missouri Compromise.

‘ Oh.’ said Mr. Slow, in a manner that showed [

he was still puzzled ; ‘ well, I reckon that Daniel Webster has something to say about that. He is a great man, aniel.

‘So he was, Mr. now.‘

‘Dead ! Grac did that happen?

' About two years ago.’

‘ Two years ago! And I never heard of it. I'll have to tell Polly of that. where’s your brother?”

‘ He’: in Wasliington. halfan hour ago. morning.’

‘ You don’t mean to say that a letter came from Washington in half an hour I’

‘ No, of course not. The news came by tele-

ra li.’

' Telegraph.’

‘ Yes, it dosn't take over a minute to come that way.’

‘ How yer talk I But you're joking I’

‘,Jolting, Mr. Slow; assuredly not. I thought of course you understood the rapidity of the telegraph."

' Then it’s true? Five hundred miles a mi- nute ! Well, that beats the Dutch. Polly oftliat.’

‘ Mr. Slow, I want to ask a question.‘

‘ Certainly, as many as you like.’

‘ o you take the papers ?”

‘ No, I don’t; but what made you ask me that?‘

‘I thought you ditl'nt. I should think you would wish to do so, in order to get the news.‘

‘ Oh, I get the news as quick as most folks. I hear the people talking about it, and learn it that

war.

' Well, no, I didn’t happen to hear of that.”

‘ Or about Louis Napoleon .1’

' \Vhy, no.’

‘Or the Nebraska bill, and the death of Daniel Webster?’

‘ No, but—’

' Or the telegraph l'

‘ No, that beats all. Five hundred miles in a minute? Won't that make Polly stars .7,

And Mr. Slow forthwith belied his name by walking rapidly home, full of intelligence which was to overwhelm Polly with surprise.—(.‘on. C. Adv.

HARD Tiiurs produce one good thing: they check gossiping. Mrs. Clacker has only “ had company” once since last summer. The conse- quence is, that the neighbours’ characters stand higher than they had done for the last five years.

Bitrcnr Hearts AND Gi.ooan'.—Ah, this beauti- ful world! Indeed, I know not what to think of it. Sometimes it is all gladness and sunshine, and Heaven itself has not for off: and then it suddenly changes, and is dark and sorrowful, and the clouds shut out the day. In the lives of the saddest of us there are bright days like this, when we feel as if we could take the great world in our arms : then come gloomy hours, when the fire will not burn on our hearths, and all without and within is dismal, cold, and dark. Believe me. every heart has its secret sorrows, which the world knows not; and often times its call it man cold when he is only sad.-Longfellow.

Sir.—I feel a pleasure and a witness to the wonderful benefit I the use of your ineatirneble Ointment and Pills.

I used several reputed remedies without deriving the least cessation t to my misery. At last, I determined to try your’ Ointment and Pills; after taking them for e fewu weeks, a visible improvement took place, and I fee l considerably better;—in three months, by continuing , with your medicines, I was completely cured, urn‘.

ir.—My sister, Miss Jens Tomkinson, suffered for a great number of years from u had leg; in which there were several deeply seated and old wounds, defying the skill of some of the most eminent of the medical faculty, a variety of remedies were also used unsuccessfully: and it seemed to me that there was not any thing capable of mitigating the agonies ehe endured. At length, she had recourse to your Ointment and Pills, and after using them for about five weeks, she was completely cured, after all other means had failed to afford her the slightest relief. I have no objection to these facts being published, if you feel disposed to make them known.

I remain, Sir, your most obedient servant. (Signed) EDWD. 'I‘UMKINSON.

Curr. DANIEL Anso-r~'r-, Brooklyn, Maine, July I6, 1843, says 2 "I was taken sick one year ago, last April, upon my passage frotn Iliivitnna to Char. leston, . At the latter place I took medicine and procured a physician, but for ten days could obtain no relief, no sleep or appetite. At last taking up a newspaper having your advertisement of‘ IIooIIand's German Bitters’ in it, I sent for some immediately, this was about 10 o’clock, at It o'clock I took the first dose, and another at 6 o'clock. The effect was so rapid on me, that I had a goodappetite for supper», and rested well that night, and the next day found in. a we man have not been without your medicine since, having been sailing between Baltimore, Char. lesion and the set ndin Islands ever since.
