THE WILL.
,\ T.ILE OF THE l..\ST  CENTURY.
The old lady who related the outline of the following singular story, heard it tolil in her youth, by no means as a fiction, bat aa a roal occni rence. She even once knew the name of the old Northern fannily concerned in it, bui that, wilh the exact dates, she has now for¬ gotten, it she ever knew the latter; and hav¬ ing never wriiten down the slory, she has no means ot recovering thera. However, from her express mention of a light wig, worn by the benevolent old hero of the lale, we have fi.ved the sirange occurrence not earlier than lhe last century.
Towarda the end of a gusty Oclober day, about the year 1830, a barrister of the temple W.-IS silting reading, when the opening of the door, and his servant's announcement of a "gentleman" interrupted him. He rose to receive his visitor, who proved to be a perfect stranger, a person of very gentlemanly, bul e.tlremely okl-fashioned appearance. He was dressed hi a grave-colored suit, of antique cut; a neut, lighl gray wig surrounded his serious, ami even solemn, physiognomy; silk stock¬ ings, rolled at the knee; enormous shoe-buck¬ les of gold; a cane headed with the same melal, and a broad-brimmed and un-cocked hat; completed his equipment; which was in lhe fashion of the lasl years of William the Third, or the first of his successor. Having Etillly bo.ved, in the exact way prescribed by the L'liquelte ot the era to which he seemed to belong, he took possession of tho chair of¬ fered him by his host, and, after a preparatory ahem, thus began, in a slow and serious man¬ ner :
'I think sir, you are Ihe lawyer employed
by  the S  family,  whose property in
Yorkshire, you are, therefore aware, is about to be sold,'
'I have, sir,' anstvered the barrister, -full instructions and powers to complete the dispo¬ sal of it, which, though a painful duty lo me mnst be performed.'
'It is a duty you may dispense with,' said the visitor, waving his hand ; ' the properly need not be sold.'
'May I presume to ask, sir, whether you are any relation to the family? Ifso, you must be acquainted with the absolute neces¬ sity of selling it, in consequence of the claim of another branch of the family, just returned from beyond the sea, who, as heir-at-law, is naturally possessor of tbe estate, in default of a will to the contrary, and who desirea its val¬ ne in money, insteatl of the land. The pres¬ ent possessor is unable to buy il, and, must, therefore, depart.'
'You are mistaken,' replied the old gentle¬ man rather testily; 'you seem not to know of
the will of Mr. S 's greatgrandfather, by
which he not only left that, his estate, to his favorite grand-son, this gentleman's father, but even emailed il on his greal-greal-grand- son,'
'Such a will, sir,' said lhe barrister, 'was in deed, supposed, for many years, to exist; and,
in viriue  of il, Mr. S has,  unlil now,
peaceably enjoyed the property ;. bul, on the claimant's application, a renewed search hav¬ ing been made for il, either the belief proves wholly unfounded, or it has been lost, or des¬ troyed. Cabinets, chests, every room, inhab¬ ited and  uninhabited,  have   been ransacked
ill vain.    Mr. S   has now given  up all
hope of/iiidiiig it; the sale is to be complet¬ ed in the course of ne.vt week ; and the fine old place must pass inlo the hands of stran¬ ger.i,'
' You are mislaken once again, young man,' said lhe .str.inger, sliikingliiscaneonlhe floor; 'I .=ay, sir, the will exists. Go, immediately,' continued he in an aulhoritative lone; ' travel Ilight and day. Vou ni.-iy save an old family from disgrace and ruin. In the end room of the left wing, now uninhabited, is a closet in the wall.'
'We have looked there,' interrupted the bar¬ rister.
Silence, sir; there is a closet, I aay. In that closet is a large chest; that chest has a false bottom, and underneath that is the deed, I am certain of what I aay. I saw the paper deposited there no maiter when or by whom. Go ; you will find it worth your trouble. My name, sir, is Hugh ; I am not now per¬ sonally known to  the proprietor of S	
Hall; but I am his relation and have hia wel¬ fare at heait. Neglect not lo follow my ad¬ vice.'
So saying the old gentleman arose, again bowed, and at the door put on his hat, in a fashion which'would have enchanted an ele¬ gant of Queen Anne's day; and sliding the l.ttle silken string of his caiie on the little fin¬ ger of his hand, on which lhe lawyer had marked a very fine brilliant ring, he descen¬ ded the stairs, and departed, leaving the bar¬ rister in the utmost astonishment. .4.1 first, he felt half inclined to consider the wheio as a hoax; then again, when he thought of the old gentleman's grave manner, and the inti mate knowledge he must have possessed of the house, to be able lo deacribe the room so exactly in which the cbest was, he could not but believe him to be sincere.
At length after much deliberation, he deci¬ ded upon immediate departure; and arrived
on the evening of the fourlh day, at S	
Hall.   The gale had been the only theme of
Romance in Real Life.—The Newark Ad¬ vertiser narrates lhe following account of a marriage which was celebiated in New Jersey a few months since, attended by re¬ markable circumsiances. It ceriainly proves "while there is life there is hope " and not ol prolonged existenco only in the usual sense. but of reformation of character, where such change is neccessary:
"Some eiahleen yeais ago, the brido and bridegroom,'theii quite young, were living to. "ether in lhu same house and became rauch attached to each other. The parents of the young woman, however, bitierly opposed their marriage, and finally succeeded in bteaking off ils courlship, and in diiving the yonng man from tho neighborhood. He became intem¬ perate and led a restless and wandering life, useless and burdensomo, apparently to him¬ selt and to all with whom he was connected. In the mean lime the mother of the girl died, and she herself removed to a little farm which she inherited, where ahe lived by hersell without neighbor or associate, doing her own work even to clearing up her farm, repairing her fences, planting her fields and the like, leading the life of a solilary misanthrope, though maintaining a character for correct and virtuous deporlment. About a year ago the man quit hia intemperate habita and be¬ came indnstrious, and having then heard the situation of his old sweetheart, and the death of her mother, he came to this country lo see her. Hu found her in the fields burning brush. They recognized each other, and then related the varioua scenes which they passed through since 1830, renewed their vows snd agreed lo be married in the coming autumn. He return¬ ed lo hia business in Franklin county, but was hardly home before he waa back again. The result of hia second inleiview was that Ihey agreed to be married at once. The marriage was accordingly celebrated. And a frientl who visited them the other day, and who rela¬ ted to us these circumstances, aaya thatthey have apparently renewed their youth. The lady has deserted the brush heaps and the fences to perform the more seemly duties of a wife at home, while the man has laken her wonted place, and cheerfulness and happiness dwell in the home of the former misanthrope, and sobriety and industry have supplanted the habiis of the drunkard."
conversation at every place he had passed Ihrough, wilhin twenty miles of his destina¬ tion ; and much and loudly was it lamented, that the squire ahould be leaving his house forever, and that poor Mr. John would never enjoy his rights, as they persisted in calling the possession ol the estate. On his entrance into the mansion, signs of approaching remo¬ val met his eye. Packages filled the Hsil, aervanta with sorrowful countenances, were hurrtng about; and the family were linger¬ ing aadly over the last dinner they were ever to partake of in their regretted home.
Mr. S -greeted his ftiend with sur¬ prise, which changed to incredulity when the barrister requesting his private ear, declared the reason of his appearance.
'It cannot be,' said he. 'Is it likely that no one should ever have heard ot the hiding ol the deed, but the old gentleman you mention. Depend upon it, yon have been deceived, my dear friend; I am only sorry you should have taken so much trouble, to so little pur¬ pose.'
'Ae barrister mentioned the name of his visitor.
'Hugh S !' exclaimed the gentleman,
smiling.    'I have not a relation in the world by that name.'
' It is worth the trying, however, said the lawyer; and aince I have come so far, I will finiah the adventure.'
Mr. S , seeing his friend so determin¬ ed at length consented to satisfy him, and ac¬ companied him towarda the apartment he specified. Aa they crossed one of the rooms in their way, he suddenly stopped before a large full-length picture. 'For heaven's sake,' cried he, who ia this?'
^  'My grand-uncle.'  returned  Mr. S—	
A good old  fellow aa  ever lived.    I wish, with all my heart, he were alivo now; but he has been dead these thirty years.' 'What was his name""
•1 '"??K ! ; ¦^^'= °"ly one of our fam¬ ily ot that name.'
u'^?^'„'\"'^?'\." *^° called upon me.- His dress, his hat, his very ring are there !'
They proceeded to the closet, lifted the false bottom of the trunk, and fouAd the deed.
The kind old uncle was never seen again.
Old Age.—Died in Hudson, New York, last week, a colored wbman named Punch at the advanced age of oue hundred aud teii years.
A ROADSIDE COLLOQUY.
And so Squire, you don't take your county paper 1
No, Major, I get the city papers on much belter terms; and so I take a couple of tliem.
But, Squiie, these oounty papers often prove of great convenience to us. The more we en¬ courage them the better their edilors can make them.
Why, 1 don't know any convenience they are to me.
The farm you sold last fall was advertised in one ofthem, and you thereby obiained a cus¬ tomer.   Did you not 1
Very true, Major: but I paid three dollars for it.
And made much more than three dollars by it. Now if your neighbors had not maintained that press, and kept it ready for yourufe, you would have been wiihout the means of adver¬ tising your pioperty. But I think I saw your daughter's marriage in those papers. Did that cost you any thing'?
No, but	
And your brother's death was thus publish¬ ed with a long obituary notico.
Yea, yes, but—
And the destruction ofyour neighbor Brigg's house by fire. You know these things are exagerated till the authentic accounts of our newapapers aet them right.
Oh true, but	
And when your cousin Spl,-i,sh was out for the Legislalure, you appeared much gratifietl at his newspaper's defence, whieh cost hiin nothing.
Yea, yes, but these things are news for lhe readers. They cause people to take the pa¬ pers.
No, no, Squire Grudge, nol if all are like you. Now 1 tell you, the day willcome when some one will write a very long eulogy ou your life and characier, and llio printer will put it in type with a heavy black line over it, and with all yonr riehea, this will be done for you as a grave is given to a pauper. Your wealth, liberality, andall such Ihings, will be spoken of, but Ihe printer's boy, as he spells the words in arranging the typea to these say¬ ings, will remark ofyou,—" Poor, mean devil, he is even sponging lor an ubiluary !" Good morning. Squire.
NONSUITING A CREDITOR.
There was a cerlain lawyer on the Cape a long time ago, the only one in these 'diggens' then, and tor aught I know, at present. Hc was man well to do in the world; and what was somewhat surprising ill a liinb of the law, averse to encouraging litigation.
One day a client came to him in a violent rage. 'Look a here. Squire," said he, "thai 'ere blasted shoemaker down to Pigeon Cove has gone and sued me for the money for a pairof bools I owed him.'
' Did the boots suit you V
' Oh ! yes—I've got 'em on—fust rale boots.'
' Fair price ?'
'Oh ! yes.'
' Then you owe him the money honestly?'
'Course.'
'Well, why don't you pay him ?'
'Why, 'cause the blasted snob went and aued me, and I want to keep him out of the money if I kin.',
'It will cost you something.'
'I dont keer a cuss for that. How much money do you want to begin virith ?'
'Oh! ten dollars willdo.'
'Is thatall? Well, here's an X, so go a- head,' and the clienl went out very well sat¬ isfied with the beginning. Our lawyer next called on Ihe ahoemaker and asked him what he meant by commencing legal pioceedings againat M—.
' Why,' said he, 'I kept on sendin' lo him for money till I got tired. I knowed he was able to pay—and I was 'termined to make him.   That's the long and short of it.'
'Well,' gaid lh? lawyer—'he's always been a good customer to you, and I think you acted too hastily. There's a trifle to pay on account ofyour proceeding—but I think yon'd better take this fire dollars and call it all squar.'
'Certain—Squir—if you say ao—and darn¬ ed glad to get it,' was the answer.
So the lawyer forked over one V and kept the other. In a few daya his client came along and asked hira how he got on with his case.
•Rapidly!' cried the lawyer—'we've non¬ suited him, he'll never trouble you.'
'Jerusalem! that's great!' cried the clienl —'I'd rather gin fifty dollara than have had
y.
gin fifty	
him got the money for them boots!' —N. Spirit of the Times.
Benevolence.—We hear a deal of the be- iievolfjuce of the human species, but never anything of the good feeling raere creatures of instinct exhibit for each other. A paper from the interior noticea a novel circumstance as connected with birda. A canary, aged fif¬ teen years, has become helpless, and has en¬ tirely lost his voice. His son, a brisk young fellow who sings like a nightingale, is permit¬ ted to fly about the room in which theold fel¬ low is confined. The yonng one visits ils father aeveral times a day, feeding him as a parent bird does ita fledglings. The relative positions of parent and son are very strictly defined between these feathered bipeds. Nnt always is tlie claiin of parent upon offspring so palpably recogiiized among humans as with these beautiful birds. Many and many a raan permits his old father to die in wanl, while he himaelf revels in all the luxury which money is capable of procuring. Take a lesson from these (iahariea, ye graceless sons, and become dutiful, humane and worthy. We ahould riot forget to mention that when theyounaorie'is wild or boiaterous, the old one ohaatisea him, aa well aa his helplessness will perraitj'ahd the son takes the correction with a show of the utmost-meekness and for- 'bearahoe.
METHOD OK OBTAINING LARGER AND FAIR FRUITS.
It is said that a gnntlemaii, who has during the last year, exported apples lo Londiui, lo be retailed at a shilling apiece, has obtained fruit of the largest dimensions and finest quality by the following melhod:
In lhe lirst place he lakes pariicular care to keop his appletii-esfrenof all worms, caterpil¬ lars, and other deslructivo insects; after hav¬ ing bestowed thein in suitable soil -and rear¬ ed Ihem according lo Ihe most approved meth¬ od of cullivation.
After thc appli-s are sel, as Ihey are com¬ ing tu malnrily, he judges wheiher they aro IOO nnmerous for the capaciiy of Iho tree lo bring to mt^lurily, or for its branches lo sus¬ tain, should the fruil como toils usual growth. If so, by means uf high step-ladders, con¬ slrucled so as lo sustain a peison among the higher ot lower blanches of the tree, wiihout at all depending on lhe body or branches, he causes the surplus lo be carefully picked off, selecting the moat unlikely specimens and from thoso parts of the tree where diminu¬ tive Iruit is usually fuund.
But whether the number of apples on the tree, be many or few, he in no case permits a blasted, early or wormy specimen to re main; believing that their briing severed will leave more of the energy of vegetation and production, !o be afforded by the parent tree lo the remaining fruit.
This is the principle involved in his.melh- od which by his experience he has found to be entirely successful, premising always, that his orchard has been grafted wilh the largest and moat delicious fruit. There is reason in Ihe iheory lhat decayeil or unprom¬ ising fruit, when left on the trees, robs the fairer specimens of nourishment that they would otherwise claim, and, hence, diminish¬ es the size and quality of the latter. It is true of animal life, and why not of vegetable ? lhat sources of depletion being removed tho strength and vital energy of the primitive sys¬ tem is promoted.
A friend of ours has experimented on the same principle, to improve the aize and qual¬ ity ol grapes. The luxuriant vines which shootout beyond the settings of the grapes, exhaust the energy of the parent vine and di¬ minish the size and quality of the fruit. Hia remedy is earefully lo prune off those ver¬ dant shoots before they shall have robbed the fruit of the nourishment required to bring it lo maturity.—Farmer and Mechanic.

TO HALli" A MILLION OF THE TORTURED!
We mean such as have the PirJGS.
A SPECIES OF COMPLAINT for which (ho fucully of this or (he ohl counlry cnn find no genuine remedy, and wliich cannot always be exlenniuated Rveu by a painful and diaguaiing application of the Surgeon's knife'. We know that for this disease dozens of usel'ul remedies liavc been puffed into noto¬ riety and sold lo legions of deceived individuals, uud that any advertised relief, for that reason, is liable to be disregarded; but we will trust lo the good sense of the .^iifTerors and plnce confidence in this open avowal of our innocence in nny intention to deceive, and to credit our unqualified asueriiony that Dr. Uji- liani's PILE ELECTUARY is a sure and aafe cure for life of the Piles, be they internal or external, bleeding or blind- The Elecluary will cause but liule irouhle or inconvenience when taken, and in any case, no maiter how bad, will perfeci n loiiil and permaneut extirpaiiuu of Pilea, aud its altendant ail¬ ments.    In Boston, in (he ahori spaco of two y*>nrfl.
NEAELY THUEE THOUSAND SURE CURES were cfTccted, aud in New York there have been, wo do not hesitate to say, five times ihat number achieved in thc same space of time. The invenior of the Elecluary, whieh so ihorouglily conqnera what has ever (and does in>w) baffled the skill and expeiiouceof ihe inedical fraiernity. is a practiaing physician. His studious habits ul College iuduced the terrible complaini, and it was lo relieve his own aufTerings that hc expended the time und atudy which produced a blessing to ihc commuuity at large in the shape of the Elecluary.
There are many causes of Piles. In some persons lbe complaint is a bequest from lheir ancestors ; lhe greaiest cause of Piles is the use of violeni purj^ativca in the shape of pills! Aloes form a principal ingredient of these purging pellets, aud aloes invunably inflame ond irriiale the alimentary canal, weak¬ en lhe stomaeh oud bowels, aud shake tho whole constitution! Strong drinks also produce Piles. In¬ activity nnd long siliings have ihe same tendency. No mailer what the cause, the proprietors of the Eleclaary warrani a COMPLETE liESTOIlATION, if iho Elecluary is used accordiug lo direc¬ tions, aud ihe use of it is persisted in! Nuiucroiig cascs of a eure by ONE BOX have come toour knowledge, but it must not be presumed thai where an individual ha:* heen afflicted nearly half the term of a imiural life, that o single box will always produce a cure. In New Jeraey, a farmer who had endu¬ red the torlure for twelve years, was eniirely restored after using only three boxes, which cost him as many dolinrs. He had previously cxpfudod aa many hundred in a search afiera remedy. Agcnlleman of New York was radically cured hy HALF A BOX, and eight persons to whom be recommended the medicine were also cured, not a aingle failure having occurred. We challenge a corresponding proof of success in any olhcr preparalion for the Piles or any other similar eomplaint. Another man of high standing, who, after enduring the very worst species ot Piles fur fourteen years, and expended thc great¬ er portion of his substance wiih the Faculty, in despair concluded lo iry the Electuary. THREE BOXES cured him.   His name can be furniahed by the proprietor.
A remedy Hke this, invaluable and isolated, sboultf not be auapiciously viewed because it is advertised. It is lhe only melhod of mnking the public in remote vicinilies awore of its existence. To aver that a worthless preparalion would do what we say the Electuarv will.
WOULD BE MURDER, and we could not consent to exist by meaus of the demise or torlure of our fellow creatures. The Elec¬ tuary conlains noihing that can injure in lhe slightest degree. It is entirely free from mineral substan¬ ces, and may be laken wiihout change of diet, withoul feor of taking cold, and by ladies in any condi¬ tion in life. In fact, to married ladies under certain circnmslances it insures l)ie birlh of soiuid and heailhy oflfspring. It is taken internally; and patients may reat convinced iliat no external application can ac- complian the desired end.
THE WEALTH OF ASTOR is not capable of conferring as much happiness on Ihe afflicled poriion of snciety as the File Electuary. It will be the meana of making the disease unknown, except in name, before the rising generation ar¬ rives at moturhy. The Electuary, alihoughexplicilty sold as a cerlain and unfaihng remedy for PILES.' is neverlheless, capiial in inflamations of ihe liver, spleen, kidneya, bladder, bowels, inacliviiy of tbe bowels and stomach, weakness of the spine, inlernal ulcerations and impuriiies, rush of blood lo the head, &-c., all of w-liich troubles are eiihef produciive of, or the consequences attendant on, that shock¬ ing and obstinate disease.

New York, March 10, 1847. Dr. Le Ree—Sir: I have the pleasure to inform you that my healih has greatly improved since I be¬ gan laking your Pills.   In January I was given up by my physicians, whosaiditwasimpossible forme lo live. I had subjected myselfto all kinds of ireai¬ ment, bnt I seemed lo grow worse rathor than bet¬ ter.    Ou account of my gradual decline, «nd obsti¬ nacy ofthe disease, they despaired of ever restoring me tn heaUb.   Since I pave commenced taking thc PERSIAN PILLS, my appetite has greatly in¬ creased—strength is fast taking the place of weak¬ ness, and tlic regnlariiies of nature have benn re¬ stored.

NO CHANGES IN THE WEtlTHEIi WILL materinlly affect the budy if the blood is pure.— lOvery individual, even the most diseased, has within him a gcim or root of that original pure hlood ul our common mother Eve ; which germ of pure blood is the supporter ofhis life, and is in constant struggle to throw nlV the heterogeneous, corrupt humors, whifh arc the causes of disoase in the individual. By purging the body of this individual disease of its bad humors, you allow the gcriM of pure blood to gain gioniid and to muke hlood of a hetler qitallty, nnd so on pro¬ gressively lill the whole mass'ts rctjenerutcd ; for the good principle or good pure blood, is always striving to be predominant over the had or dis¬ eased hmnors. l^iCI all who wish to he of a fine henlthy habit; who wish lo have a sound mind in a sound body; who desire to be ahle lo stand with¬ out injury the coniinual changes of this climate; who desire to have hcallhy children, use ilie Brand¬ reth Pills, which will eff'eclually cleanse the blood ofall bad or corrupt humors, and re.iiorc the human hody to the state of henlth enjoyed beforo thc in¬ troduction of minernl medicines.
