In the mouths of mountain e.ives. Whence the rapid torrent gushes,
Joving in tho spray that laves. As it wildly, foaming, ruslies.
In thc clelts of foaming falls, On tlie old ruins sad and hoary,

THE-SHITH BABIES.
A few years sinco, I wa."! on my way in New Orlean.s on the fine steamer , " Ruth" (aflerwards burneil). The eabin wa.s crowded, every Btatc-rooni lull, and many obliged to sleep on the ealiiii floor. Xt wa.*; during the third year of the war, and many oHIeers' wives were going to visit tlie brave hus¬ bands who could not eome home. There must have been twenty babies on board, from two months to one year old, not a lew of them going (o see their fathers for the lirst time.
AVe were sitting in the large and eon¬ venient iini-sery one evening, the young mothers admiiing and comparing ba¬ bies, when I noticed a large red marl; on the left cheek of a jiretty little girl about one year old, and I said to the mother it waa a pity the mark was there, as it w.is a girl, and could never be concealed by whiskers.
"Oh, I Avonld rather have it there than have no mark," said tlie sprightly mother.
"Do ymi admire such marks?" I .asked.
"They are .somoliines convenient," she replied; "and the old strawberry mark so much used in novels has often proved useful in real life. Why," she continued, " I do believe I should slit my child's eara if it had no other dis¬ tinctive mark."
" Yourviewsaresingularon (hissub- i   ject, are tUey not?" I asked' •      " Yes, said she, " and I can tell you a case in point if you would like to hear a long story."
It was a stormy night, and wo could not be out on deck as usual, so we were all eager for the story, and when the littlo ones were settled for the night, we adjourned to the eabin, and soon be¬ came deeply interested in the following story of the
" SMITH BABIIS."
" When I accompanied my husband to Omaha, we found more people tlian could well be accommodated in tlie few and yery poor houses then built in that new city. At last we fouud a shelter in the already crowded boarding-house of the Widow Mills. .She gave up her own room to us, and slept witli her cook, all for a ' con-sid-er-a-tioii,' ofcourse.
" There were two upper rooms, one ou each sideof the hall, occupied by two Mr. Smiths and their families.
"Mr. Percy Sinith was a railroad contractor, had married in St. Louis about a year before I met tlicm at Oma¬ ha, and had been boarding with Mrs. Mills about six montlis. His wife had now an infant about two weeks old, so I I did not make her acquaintance until I had been in the house two weeks or more.
"Mr. Crayton .Smitli wasa rover; I eould not learn jnst what business he was engaged in. His wifo was a poor delicate little mortal, perfectly content if her husband was only with her, which was seldom, as I learned.
" He had been with her now for Uie laat three months, but was preparing to go to Pike's Peak. He waa only wait¬ ing for his wife to regain hor ordinary health, as she had also had a babe two weeks older than the other Smith baby.
" I found Mrs. Percj' Smith a very intelligent young woman, bright and cheerful, devoted to her husband aud iihild, yetnotso much absorbed iu them as to neglectother duties and pleasures. Of coui-se the two young mothers be¬ came very intimate, and Mrs. Crayton .Smith quite looked uii to her friend in all matters concerning tho babies; she was such a helpless, dependent little body. Tliey wero near the same age, bnVso unlike in evory way.   Mrs. P.
" Thus they dallied with their dar¬ lings; how they told them apart I could not conceive, without their clothes; but they seldom made mis¬ takes.
" Mrs. Percy Smith could not nurse her babe; she was obliged to feed It from a bottle. She mourned over this at flrst, but would uot consent to a strange wet nurse, and Mrs. C. Smitli waa not strong enough to nurse both. If there was any out-door matter to be attended to, Mi-s. P. Smith was the ono to go, as she could leave her babe much better than Jlrs. C. Sinith could, and the onco helpless little woman became quite an expert nurse, often taking full charge of both infants for a whole day, while Mrs. P. Smith was attending to business. .So tlie ' two Pollies' were thriving finel.y, and a great comfort to their youug mammas.
" A few weeks hiid pas.'ied, and now Mr. P. .Smith was expected home. One day I heard the happy mothers plan¬ ning how they would p.aliu ofl'' the wrong baby on Mr. Sinith when he came; how the.y laughed over the idea! "But in place of this happy return, a telegram was received one day, telUng Jlrs. P.Smith to hasten to .St. Louis, as her husband was wounded. No ex¬ planation—those despatches tell so lit¬ tle, yet so much ! Now it was that Mrs. P. Smith was thankful that she did not nurse hor babe. She could not take it in such haste. .She had full coufidence in her friend, and wilh teai-s and kisses she left tho little unconscious infant in her friend's arms, and that evening was on Iier w.iy to her husband.
" iMrs. Crayton proved true to her charge, managing both babies with tlie help ofa young girl, and if either child j was neglected for a moment, it was her own.
" It waa somo days before we heard the particulars of Mr. P. Smith's inju¬ ries. Then IMr.s. Smith wrote to her friend a long, sad letter. Mr. P. Smith had been down on the levee at St. Louie attending to the .shipping ofsome rail¬ road iron, when just as he was walking I ofl'the-plank from theboat to the shore, some oliim.sy deck hands had pushed against him, shoving bin off into the water, and in their frigliti letting their heavy load also fall on topi of him. He w.13 taken out quite in.si'naible, and when the despatcli w:is Jeiit to Mrs. Smith, it was feared he ivould never revive. But by tlio timef she got to him, he was quito sensib e, although in great pain. Both legs .vere brokeu below the knees; one ji-as terribly crushed. It was feareil oiu', if notbotli limbs must lie amiiutateq'. But Mr. Smith would not con.sent. His friends urged, his wife entreated, his physi¬ cians insisted, telling himj tills awfu:
Smith could have no more experience iu babies than tlie other, as this waa her I'lrat, but she took to it iiuite naturally, while Mrs. C. Smith was almost afraid to handle her own child.
" 1 had only been iu the house about one month, when Sir. Crayton Smith bade good-by to hia wife and child, and started on his journey, expecting to be absent six or eight months. His poor little wife was very much pitied by all the boarders. 1 heard one rougli old bachelor say it was a shame for Smith to leave such a woman aa that. She clun^ more than over now to Mrs. P. Smitli, who w:ls very kind and atten¬ tive to her.
"About a week after this, Mr. Percy Smith was obliged to start for St. Louis. He waa an active busine.ss man, and used to hnrried journeys. His wife laughingly bade him gnod-by, told him to take good care of himself, and not to worry about her and baby, as they would do nicely. .Such was thc dilfcr- enee betweon the two Mrs. .Smiths.
" They became more intimate now than ever, almost living in one room. The babies were both girls, very much alike ill features, and tlie ono that waa two weeka tho youngest, wii-s full aa large aa the other. Aud they named them as nearly alike as possible—Mary C. anil Mary P.—Mrs. Percy Smith pay¬ ing tbe compliment to JXrs. Crayton Smith of putting the C. to her baby's name when sho found that lady had called her child Mar.y P. iu honor of her friend. Such a mixed up muss asit was! Every visitor had to be told that Mrs. Crayton Smith's baby was named Jlaiy P., and Jlrs. Percy Smith's baby was Mary C.
ful pain would soon wear liinijout.
" Mrs. P. Smith asked h^r friend ifit would be possible for her ^o .keep her darling till something was decided up¬ on; for liow eould the chili bo brought to her? Aud if there, how could it be attended to in that crowded hotel ?
And so our weak littlo v'oman waa now of the greatest service :o her more enorgetii! friend. She wro e to her to be at rest aliout the dear b.be; it waa well, and too young to nii.'i| its mother; it should fare as her owii. She sent kind words and all good ttiishes to the anxious wife, aittiug so sadly by the bedside of hep sufl'ering liii/biind.
" Three or four lettora luid passed be¬ twoen the friends, in wliict we were all deeply iuteii'sled, when I lleft Omaha witll m.v husband, and j-emoved to Kansas City. Indeed, I dan't believe anybody ever does stay iujOmalia, yet it is always more than i .ill. Poople eome nud go, come and go, but seldom remain. "What happened q fter I left, I have since learned. M a. Crayton Smith devoted herself to tl e ' two Pol- lies' unlil she was as poor i^i a skeleton. Every lady iu the house; or in the town, for that matter, w.ia willing to assist her, but sho was .so aiixious to do all hersoif, that sho was woiii out before she was aware of it. j
"She was never a ready; writer; but even her short letters were ji great com¬ fort to tho absent raothej. A whole week passed, and then onlj a fow lines, s.iying the baby was well, game. Even this was good news, aud M|-s. P. Smith was too bu.ay and anxioqs abont her husbanil to lliiuk much ab^-ut the sliort nole. I
" And now a sad trial j-ame. The doctors had met, and decided that death must ensue ifthe liniba wci e not imme¬ diately aniputated. No lies) tatlon now; no trying wilh oue limb I only; they must both come oil'. So tli« poor j-oung wife had but little thought 'or her baby, absent, but uo doubt well.!
"The operation was s);ilfully per¬ formed, but it was too lale; the patient was exhausted, and in a fqiv liours Jlr. Percy Sinith was dead.
" Mi-s. P. .Smith was qui^e iiro.'itr.ited by her long watching and iljisad ending. Forsome liays sliewaaincapabieof any exertion; llien thoughts ol: her de.aerted baby roused her, and she dplermined to start at onco for Omaha.] Still there wore delays, even after the friends tried lo pursuade child was doiiij should rest. ,
" It won more than three she had heard one word fiJDm the little Mary. She tried to tliinj: the letters had been mislaid in tlie confusion of tlio p.ist weeks, and made what haste she could to start on her-, ouruoy, still writing eaeli day to Jfrs. C Smitli aud begging for a reply.
"She started at last, but the journey was uncommonly tedious ti the anxious mother. Aiiived at Om dia, sho was too impatient to w.iit for the stage to carry round the p.issengerf, but got out at the post-office, where th y stopped to throw nut tho mail, and hu lying across lots, almost ran until sliaroacliod tho door of her old boardin ;-liouse. A strange woman met her in the hall,but she rushed up the at.iirs drying—' Oh, my baby! my baby!'        !
"By Ibis time .some hq-If dozen in¬ mates of the house were following at her heels; for strangers iceupied the house, aud tliey thoughtl some crazj' woman w.is let loose upon [ tliem. She gave one bound into thej room where ahe had left her infant yith Jlra. C. Smith, now nearly three jiionths ago, looked wildly round at tlii| unfamiliar objects, tiien fell fainting an llie flbor. "¦As I told you, changes [ire ever tak¬ ing place in Omaha. Jfis. Jfills had left, and those now keepiiig the houso had.never oven hoard ol Jlrs. Percy Smith.
" Bnt Dr. Sales, who li id attended both Jfrs. Smiths in Ihoir Conflnement, and who had just returncil frora New
troubles seemed to come at once ; -but we must give Mrs. O'Horra credit for doing her.very best for them. Three of her own progeny were down at the same time, antl she treated nil .alike, deserted by hdr neighbora when the loathsome disease made Its ajipear- ance, hindered, uot helped by her drunken husband, she nursed the chU¬ dren faithfully, and they all recovered. The week before the arrival of Jlrs. Percy Smith, Jlrs. O'Harra had been madet4le.ive the old shanty, and it with the bedding and clothing had been burned to prevent the spreading of the disease. "They were now in a new frame buihling, with plenty of puro air, clean clothing i^d wholesome food; so muoh had beeu doue by the city fathers for self-protection.
" Thia was tho story told to tho half distracted mother as she hurried on to flnd her babe. When thoy iciched the houae, Jlrs. O'Harra stood at her wash- tub just outside of the door, and within, on a clean quilt apread in front of the open door, lay two infants fast asleep. Did you ever see a child just recovering from the small-po.x ? It is not a pleas¬ ant sight. Their little faces were aa red aa a dark atrawberry, and full aa speckled. The little bald heads had atill a few dry scabs. Jlrs. Smith, with a hyaterical sob, threw herself down beside the babies and looked into their little faces; then with au appealing look at the Doctor's wife, she asked— But which ia my owu ?' Now here, you see, is where the 'strawberry mark' might have come iu beautifully ; but it was not there.
" Jlrs. O'Harra wiped tho suds from her smokiug arms and camo in. When told that thia waa the mother of one of hor babies, she broke out into a har¬ angue of joj' and welcome; then catch¬ ing up one child and giving it a shake to wake it, ahe aaid—' The Lord love you, ma'ain, do you know which iver ia your own—is it this? or this?' sha- ,king the other till it opened ita oyea.
"Thelittle ones opeued their eyes, still red and weak, and seeing strangers neer, they held up their thin arms to Mrs. O'Harra. Ob, how unlike they were now to the two cherubs 1 had seen in their bath-tub. The poor mother conld see no beauty uow. Clean as they were, they were rather repulaive objecta to look upon. Jlrs. P. .Smith cried as if her heart would break, clasp¬ ing both chUdren in her arms, examin¬ ing each from head to foot; then closing her eyes and hugging tbem close, she tried to feel whioh waa ber own, but all in vain; and from that day to thia, she doea not which ia her Mary. Mrs. O'Harra had no idea. ' And sure,' said she, ' what's the diflTer? Bceu't they hotli Mary Smith ? The Holy Mother bleaa them, and can't ye be mother to both, andjiatlave out tho P. and C, and claim tho two of 'em ? It's proud any woman might bo of sich a pair.'
'• Mra. Sales took the bewildered mother and babies to her own home that very night, and thore they re¬ mained for two or three montha under the good doctor's care,and by thattime the two little ones began toget baek their beauty; the scars were not deep, and little golden rings of hair soou cov¬ ered the round heads, and the blue, laughing oyea were clear and intolli- gent.
" Jfrs. O'Harra waa well paid for all her care of them. Mr. Crayton Smith waa informed of the death of liis wife and of the welfare of hia child. An in¬ teresting correspondence went on be¬ tween the young widow and the absent widower. Ho did not return for two yeara, being well Batisficd with the guardianship ot Mrs. P. Smith, aud when he did come home, he tried in vain to discover wliich Mary was his own; but that not being possible, he made thom both hia by marrying Jlrs. P. Smith.
" They are liviug now in a distant oity. The little girla are thought to be tw'ina, and they will never be told the atory of their babyhood, or how they got mixed up when in Omaha. Jlrs. O'Harra's adviee was laken ; the P. and tho C. were dropped, and one called May, the other JIary, for distinction.
"Jlrs. Smith is very happy, and proud of her Httle girla; but when we last met, she told me she eould not de- l.seribe tho strange feelings tiiat came over her whenever she tried to decide whicii waa her own child. She has never had other children, hut aays if she had, alio would surely mark them in some way.
" Do you wonder now that I am glad my child has a mark, if it is on hor cheek ?
The atrange story was ended, and I only hopo my readera may bo as much interested by it as we were that storm.y iilgliton the Misslasippi.-Zfid ys Friend.

" What gay limes the young mothers ] had witll their habies. I had none of ray owu at the time, and I really envied them.
" One day I caught them holding their bald-headed infants in the sun¬ shine to determine on the color oftheir hair before they closed the nearly fin¬ ished lettera to their absent lords, that they might add that very important item of news.
"A little fine down was just percept¬ ible behind the eara of one, and the other had two or three line hairs on its neck ; but a-s to color, tho sun gave its own to them, and they could not be seen In the shade; so that item was postponed.

Messrs. Editors: No doubt many of you readers havo been aurprlaed to leam thatDr, S. B. Hartman, a member of the roedlcfll Ira- temity, has connected himself with the manu¬ facture of an article which has been classed as a Patent Medicine. Wefeelthatslmplojnstlco not only to tho patrons of the preparation and the Doctor himself, but to tho public at largo, ' demands that somo explanation of tho causes which have Induced him to engngo In tho mannfacture of an article which, although it has roceived the endorsement of many of tho most eminent Physicians In the countrj-, hau fitlU been classed asa Patent Medicine. , ,,
Someslx^ years ngo, Jfr, Benjamin Mishler compounded a small quantity of a certaiu preparation, for tbo uso of .some of his friends. The bonuntaresniting from Its u.so were such, tbat the demand for thc article becameso great as to warrant Mr. Mishler In manufacturing in larger and still lurgm- quantities, until now thebasine-ssorpropaririij MISHLER'S HEBB BITTERS, (as he numed the compound) and thc builillng necessnry to carry on the same, has becomo one of the prominent features of Lancaster city. It was only to be expected that the iutroductlon ofan article, the preparation of which was kept aecret Uy the Proprietor, although tbu Ingrt^diouLs wore made known should meet with o]«pj»Ition from Pliysieians, who, though wull aware of the virtues of thc various Jllurbs, &c., used, yet naturally looked with suspicion ou a medicine, the mode of coiupouudlug which they werein ignorance.
The success that it met with, however, could ooL lohg be denied. Hun.lruds of p'-raons who hud, after long trial, di^Ciirdcd medicul treat' muiit, were speedily rcatured to health by jlio uao of tho Bitters; and many physicians were j forced firal to admit that MLSHLER'rf Hc;.;B j HITTERS did possess remodial virtue.-* pecu¬ liar to Itself, and cv'entually to c-mutoiiain a Itsuse by theirxiatletit-,andin mun>' itistaur. a to prericrlbe It, Among the most sL.euu'..ua opponents of MI-<HLER'S HERB Biti'ER-, was Dculor S. B. Hartman, of Mlllersvllle, a phyaician of twelve years' experience, poasesfl- Ing-a large and lucrative practice, and enjoy- ing'a reputation as a Surgeon and Physician second to none In tho country. He had met, on many occasions, Instancesin which he was told that MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS had eflected cures when regular medical treat¬ ment imd failed ; but It was reserved for tho cftseofMrs. AmosStauITcr, of Manor twp., to cause him flrst to give the matter serious con- slderat ion. Tho facts nro substantially as fol¬ lows :
Mns. Asios ST.vtTJTEa, the wife of [a miller. and the motlier of six children, had been com¬ plaining for some months of a shortness of breath. At flrst she obscr\'od this only when after having exerted herself more than usual In ft short time, however, she found hersel compelled to sit down and rest, after the least exertion. She could not run up stairs as she had Ijcen accustomed to, or mako tlio beds cr sweep tlie rooms without resting herself. Still she did not Ihink liet-sclfsick,us In every other respect sho feltas well ascver, but her strengtli continued to give way, getting weaker and weaker dny by day, with fugitive pains tlirough her brciust to thc shoulder-blade,unlil at last she was ao troubled with shortness of breath and couglUng that tho was compelled to keep her room. At this stage of her complaint she sent for Dr.S. B. Hartman, then the family physician. Tho Doclor found lier as above de¬ scribed, and, on inquirj-, was informed that
tion, and hcrpn^en^s, as well aa her grand¬ parents, had died ofthe same disease, showing couclnsively that the disease was hereditary. On percussion, (generally called sounding tho breast bj- the people,) Dr. llurtman discovered great dulln&ss In thc upper lobe ot tho left lung, and also in tho upper .and middle lobes oi**-«riiiiiL long. On laying his ear to her chest ho fonuu «.-* ,„„ respirators- murmnr, which is thc healthy snuml, imn.eiiilrely dis-^ appeared, nnd lliut tbe bronchial sounds were asplainlyand distinctly heard over the reglouK of those afl'ected lobes.as thelenstscratchofa pin at one end ofa board ts heard bypresslng tho ear closeij- to the other end; or as plainly as It would have been heard could Lh,e ear havo been placed directlj- ag.ainst the outer surCice oftho traciiea and bronclifal tubes. This was conclusive evidence tbat tlie upper lobes oftho lungs were filled with matter, which rendered tliem flo solid that no air could enter thoso parts. Professor Watson, in speaking of this condition of tlie limgs lo his class, remarked that, "In this stige tho lungs would cnt with a Icnlfc like English cheese, with hero and thore soft spots resembling pus."

Theso facts occurring directly within Dr. Hartinan's bwn practice first led him to Inves- tlcato thc subject and to ascertain if possible whetherornottho long list of cures claimed to liave been etfccted by illSHLER'S HERB BITTERS wore really as represented. In mak¬ ing his reseacchofi ho called on and saw about ono hundrod diilerent parties who liad at var¬ ious times used MISHLER'S HERB BI'lTERS with good results and found thatuot only were tile facts amply subsiantiaifd but not half had been told. The parties hu saw referred him to huudreds whose names have nover been given to tho publlc,and among them he found many ofhis old patlenis, who phklnlj'told blm that thej' oweu thoir present health)' condition solely to the merlLsof .MISHLER'S HERB BIT¬ TERS,
These facts convinced the Doctor that theso Bitters possessed more healing and curativo virtno than anj' other prep:iration uow knowu and tbo opportunltj'occurring he became the purehiuser ofthe Proprietorship of tho Prepara¬ tion. Unco convinced by undoubted evldenet* that MISHLER'S HERB lU'lTERS was really wh.ll the former Proprietor had claimed It to be. Dr. Hartman ami h\:i partners, Messrs. Brown nnd I'atton, {both of whom had been coiiMocted wilh the buslnes.s with Mr. Mishler) set about reorganizing and relitting tho cst-ib- llshmenl. Tbe resull of their labors will bo seen in tho neatness aud order overj-wherij visible.
