It is not a castle olden, Standing in the sunlight golden, Reh of the Past, With a deep moat mossed and hoary, And a ray from bygone glory, O’er its ruin cast. But a mansion fair and pleasant, Known alike of peer and peasant, For its kindly cheer, With its glades and lefy covers, Ferny haunts of loitering lovers, And the shy wild deer. Crimson blossoms redly glowing, | Flickering shadows o’er 1t throwing Veil the lichen’s stain ; Sunset gleams of rose and amber, Where the ivy tendrils clamber, Flush each casement pane. Lurks no ghost behind the arras, Happy midnight dreams to harrass, Wakes no Banshee’s wail ; Tapestry, nor antique lumber, Doth its sunny hall incumber, Shield nor suit of mail, Merning wakes its household noises, Busy footsteps, laughing voices, As in days of yore : ; Burns its warm hearth too, brightly, . : OF Where the gay groups gather night’ y, Though it knows no more. Hearts, by other loves supplanted ; Steps, that once its precincts haunted, Hushed by mount and sea ; Only my sad hee :t remembers Flowery Junes and dark Decembers, Spent, old home, im thee ! Shadows pace the garden alleys, Wander with me through the valleys, Join my woodland walk ; And by the streamlets willow-shaded, Where the song-birds serenaded, Parted lovers talk— Illy talking, idly dreaming, With the sunlit waters gleaming Golden at their feet, While the fair-haired children plunder, Rosy-mouthed, with blue-eyed wonder, Fruitage wild and sweet. When I stretch my hands ia greeting, Each familiar name rey exting, Straightway from my sight, 5 0 d a Back to angel bowers they vanish, Even as beams of morning banish Visions of the night. ——eor-- Blevating the Standard. Mackenzie sought to gain the confidence of the country by proclaiming that his was the purty of purity, and when he dissolved the House in 1874 he announced to the country that they were going to “elevate the standard of morality!’ TuIs Is HOW HE DID IT: Major Walker spent $10,000 in London in put- ting down bribery and corruption;’’ Cameron of I[uron confessed to spending $60,000; Cook of Simcoe spent $28,000 in two elections; Norris with his “mis- sionary money” in Lincoln; besides Soundary of the said land in possession MORTGAGE SALE! | LEASEHOLD PROPERTY.

Charlottetown, July 24, 1878—6 i law ee The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era, There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has Deen caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters. DR.

Reader, what think you of the hypo- crites who proclaimed they were “elevat- ing the standard of morality !” + me -- He took Notes. The other day a boy of thirteen who looked very innocent and child-like as he reposed very innocently under a shady tree on Beech street, roused up when joined by another lad of his own age and confidentially inquired : “Well, did you make observashuns ?”’ “T did,” was the reply. “And we kin hook the apples and not git cotched, kin we?” “You wait a minute,’’ commanded the other as he held an old shingle up to the light to enable him to read the fol- lowing ‘‘notes in pencil: ‘“‘Went down ia front of house; saw ole woman with club; saw dog lyin’ low for us ; saw red-headed girl ready to ring cow-bell and give alarm; saw man inside breathin’ hard and achin’ to kill a boy; hull fam’ly looked me in eye; pressure too heavy, and I backed off; nice appuls, them, but uader the circumstanaes I guess we’d better keep on ,chewin’ old lemons.”’ ‘“ ‘Nother disappointment added to our burdens,” sighed the first, and they loafed on.— Detroit Free Press. DP Enioy Life. What a truly beautiful world we live in. Nature gives us grandeur of mountains glens and oceans, and thousands of means for enjoyment. We can desire no better when in perfect health ; but how often do! the majority of people feel like giving it up disheartened, discouraged and worried out with disease, when there is no occasion for this feeling, as every sufferer can easily ob- tain satisfactory proof that Green’s August Flower will make them as free from disease a3 when born. Dyspepsia and Liver Com- plaint are the direct cause of seventy-five per cent. of such maladies as Biliousness, indigestion, Sick Headache, Costiveness, Nervous Prostration, Dizziness of the Head, Palpitation of the Heart, and other distress- ing symptoms. Three doses of August Flower will prove its wonderful effect Sample bottles, 10 cents. Try it. UBSCRIBE for the DAILY EX- AMINER, the Cheapest and most newsy Paper published in the Province, are apneeenes by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant oue is applied the patient will feel its effect. Physiciansin all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by DR. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually preseribs them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters erliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and want acertain cure, ask your druggist for R. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of ° its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate — to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to your friends. Ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSI- cuM PoROUS PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or 2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas.
