NO. 29. 0clcil JpOCtVl). GOOB-BVE TO MKXICO. BY LIEVT. VV. Homeward our feet are turned once more— The last to leave—the first lo land— And now press forward to the shore That girts our own free, northern i.-iiui. Oh ! how thc heart with rapture thrills '¦ Hov,^ leap, in thought, our mountain rills ! And waves afar the golden grain Upon our home-fields, wide and tiir— That we shall see and tread again- Wooed bv our ov.n sweet, summer air ! Homeward—how- much i.s in that word 7— Home—that we lett long years ago— W'hen first the blast of v>'ar was heard. On hill above, in vale below. Then how our yeomen hurried forth, From east and west, and south and north ! They met and vanquished oft the foe On many a hard contested field, Where, with their banners torn and low, We saw his boasting legions yield. But this has passed—peace ha.s returned—¦ Our blades are sheathed and idle now ; Blades that on many fields have earned Bright laurels for the wearer's brow. And now, our soldier's duty done. We leave this land of bloom and sun. Its never-changing summer time— Its gardens and its olive-groves. And avenues of fragrant lime— ha fetes, its intrigue.'), and its loves. Oh ! land of beauty, peerless bright ! Of snow-capped peaks and smiling plain? ; Yet shrouded in a darker night Than over Egypt's shrines remains! The stranger, parting from thy shore Thy glories to behold no more, Bids thee farewell with swelling heart, As his swift bark leaps o'er the sea. And as the truant tear-drops start, Prays God that thou may'ut yet he free. . Fareu^'ell.'—no ties are broken, though I've tarried long upon thy soil; i-'arewell.'—though coming as a foe, I leave thee without hate or spoil; And parting thus—forever—let The stranger hope that yoii|pay yet Rise from your living grave, and stand Before the nations, just and great— Protecting all wiihin the land— A free and indepeutlent State. Farewell.'—thy spires are sinking fast Behind yon grey, volcanic hills— I feel this look will be the last, Yet no regret my bosom fills; For all my hopes and all my fears Are with the scenes of earlier years ; Fond memories around me throng. And shall I, can I, break the spell ! One parting word—a deep, a long, A hearty, and a last farewell ! » ¦ « > »— AEl. SORTS OF PARAGRAPHS. A Mock Makhia(;k.—The Reading (Pa.) Press tells a strange story of an outrageous imposition that vvas practised upon an unsuspecting clergy¬ man in the upper end of the county, last week, by a couple of frolicksome young men. It appears that one of them put on female attire, and under an assumed name, went tathe parson with his companion, to he married. The innocent Domi¬ nie, not being well acquainted with the mysteries of stays and petticoats, took it for granted that all was right, and •' lied the indissoluble knot"' without hesitation. > But the joke, hard as it vvas, did not end here; for the counterfeit groom paid the par. son a counterfeit note for his wedding fee! The Press intimates that the young scamps are likely to reap the due deserts of their mischievous freak. By tlie President of llie United States. IN pinsuaiue of law, I, JAMES K.

A lady of rare musical attainments was playing on the piano^ when all at once her bird, who seemed to have been listening very intently, hurst forth mto a strain of song so loud, shrill and powerful, as at once to ar¬ rest her attention. Nothing like it had been heard before. The little creatures breast seemed actually swelling and. heaving with his eflbrts to give vent to the conceptions with which his tiny heart was beating. AU at once, at the very full tide of his melody, he was silent. His mistress took him from the cage, and he turned over in her hand and died! On dissection, it was found that he had completely split his windpipe from top to Ijottom! ige. 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Prem. 1 50 1 53 1 56 1 59 1 60 1 63 1 66 1 69 1 72 1 76 1 85 1 89 1 94 1 98 2 04 Age. 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 Prem. 2 09 2 15 2 20 2 27 2 33 2 40 2 47 2 54 2 63 2 70 2 81 2 92 3 01 3 12 3 23 Age. 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 Prem 3 36 3 3 62 3 77 3 94 4 13 4 32 4 51 4 71 4 91 5 12 5 33 5 54 5 78 6 03 Execution do.

A CoiKciDKNCE.—It is a striking coincidence, and one illustrative of the spirit ofthe age, as well as of the strong feelings of fraternity which bind France and our country together, that at the same time that our country was conferring upon Mr, Vattemare the appointment ot the United States agent in Parisfor international exchange, the French Government selected Major Poussin, an American citizen, and for fifteen years an officer in our service, and still bearing an American title of military rank, as its diplomatic representative near our govern¬ ment. New Intention.—The St. Louis New Era mentions a device invented by a Mv. Gilbert Van. marter, who is in that city, the plan of which is to run a wheel by weights, which are adjusted by the wheel itself—thus making it a self-propelling ma¬ chine, capable of running as long as the material lasts, thus making it a sort of perpetual motion. A Graphic Dssckiption-.—A correspondent oi a New York paper writing from Cape Island gra¬ phically describes the place as follows:—" It has a great quantity of fine white sand on one side, and on the other a great deal more." It would be difjj. cult to surpass the faithfulness of this picture."'?? A Black Coloxel.—A Parisian correspondent of a New York paper, describing the incidents of the " four days" in Paris, gives the following curious item:—"The largest and finest battalion of Garde Mobile I have seen during tiie day, was led by a young, full-blooded negro, tall arid erect and full of military ardor."

IVotice to Distillers, AND ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. TirHEREAS, I, .Jacob Weitzel, of the city of T f Lancaster, coppersmith, have received by let¬ ters Patent, recorded in the Patent office in the city of Washington, certain useful improvements in the construction of Stills, which improvements consist of an additional tub, called a dr :•; thig tub, which is placed partly above the still, \t which tub the doubler is inclosed, the beer which is pumped into the upper tub passes down by a plug pipe into the doubling tub, where it is brought to a boiling state before it is let into the still, which pipe is opened or stopped when requisite by means ofa plug made of wood, copper, or any other material. What I claim as my improvements are the ahove described doubling tub and the plug by which the beer passes from one tub to the other, or from the tub into the still. Having received information,amounting to proof, that my patent for the above described improve¬ ments has been violated by several distillers in this county and in various other places, I hereby give notice, that unless those persons who have made use of my invention, or have it now in use, without being authorized by me, come forward and make full reparation for having infringed my patent right, on or before the first day of March next, suit will bo instituted against all and every such person or persons.

His unparalleled success some attribute to one cause, and some to another% And some, more envious than the rest, attribute it to any cause that best suits their purposes, no matter howr unjust, or how foul the misrepresentations. Again, there is another class more easily satisfied, and content themselves by saying—" Well, it is all luck—better to be born lucky than rich. Born undef a lucky planet," &c, " Pshaw says Dr. Franklin, of luck, all the luck I know of is in proper management." Precisely so. Dr., and just the operating cause in the extensive business done at the great LANCAS¬ TER HALL OF FASHIONS. The only secret in this large business, and the only reason that it of large, is because he is careful in the selection is good materials, and has all his goods well made— and then the fitot his garments cannot be surpassed; and are sold at prices that defy competition. This is the cause of his astonishing success at the great LANCASTER HALL OF FASHIONS, N. Queen St, Lancaster; next to J. Gish & Co.'s Book Store and the National House. [May 9, '48.-tf-15. New Ooods!

They never fail to eflect a cure when taken according to directions. No outward applicaiion can permanenily remove Rheumaiic Pains from lhe sysieni ; Linemenis someiimes act as a pa'ialive for a short period, but there is aUvays danger in their use; ihey may cause ihe pain lo leave one place for perhaps a viial part, or elte where lhe pain will be more acute- GERMAN BITTERS. For lhe permanent cure of Liver Coiiifilaint, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Chronic Debili¬ ty, Chronic Asihma, Nervous Debility, Pulmona¬ ry Affeciions, [arising from the liver or stomach,] Disease of the Kidneys, and all diseases arising from a dieordercd siomach in both male and female, such as female wearkness, dizziness, fullne.->s of blood to the head. They sirengihen the system and ftmove all acidity of lhe stomach, and give it lone and action, and assist digesiion ; ihey can he taken by the most delicaie stomach, and m every case will entirely destroy costiveness, and renovate the whole system, removing all impurities and remnanis of previous diseases, and give a healthy action to the whole frame. THE SYMPTOMS OF LIVER COM¬ PLAINT ARE—Uneasiness and pain in the right side, and soreness upon touch immediafely under the inferior ribs, inability to lie upon ihe lelt side, or if at ail able, a dragging sensaiion is pro¬ duced which seriously afiecis respiration, causing very ofien a troublesome cough; together wiih these symptoms we perceive a coated tongue acidi¬ ty of the stomach, deficiency of perspiration, and sometimes a sympalheiic pain in the right shoulder, with a great disposition lo sleep, and depressing ot spirits, and sometimes sores in ihe mouih or throat causing mucus to rise in the nostrils. Jaundice fre¬ quently accompanies it, and a Dropsey in the face; these symptoms if permitted to continue will even¬ tually produce thai mosi baneful disease Consump¬ tion ; in fact a majority of such ca.ses originate from ihe irriiaiing cause above mentioned; Caihariic me.'icines must in every instance be avoided in the treatment for it. THE SYMPTOMS OF DYSPEPSIA are very various, those affeciing the stomach alone are Nausea, Heartburn, loss of appeiiie, sometimes an excess of appetite, sense of fullness or weight in the stomach, sinking or fluitering in the pit of ihe stomach, feted eruclaiions or sour rising from ihe stomach, &c. The eympalhelic afiectirins are ve¬ ry diversihed. Dyspepsia devoid of a functional nature is wiihout danger, bur if arising from a dis¬ ease of the stomach ii is dangerous. NERVOUS DEBILITY, [It generally accompanies Dyspepsia or Liver Complaini] ihey will also cuie; a few doses will remove all the unpleasant effects, such as fluttering at the heart, a choking sensation when in a lying posture, aotsor webs before the sight, fever and dull pain in lhe head, constant imaeinings of evil, and great dcpiessioR of spiriis. "Outward signs—quick and strong pulse, pale and distressed countenance, &c." Any casenf ihe above diseases can be cured effectually by the use of the Bitters M directed. SUDORIFIC—An infallible remedy for coughs or colds on the chest, spitting of blood. In¬ fluenza, Whooping cough. Bronchitis, Humoral Asibina, or any disease of thc Lungs or Throai. This is an invaluable family medicine, it soon re¬ lieves auy cough or hoarseness, and prevents th^ croup by being early administered. No cough or cold is too light ;o pass neglected. Neglected colds send ihousands to the grave annually, and cause many to grow up with a delicate frame who would have been strong and rubust if at firs; properly treated. SPIKENARD OINTMENT, for the effectual cure of lhe Piles, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald head. Ringworms, inflamed Eves or Eyelids, Baihers' Itch, Frosted leei, old Sores, eiiher arising from fever or impure blood, and will e.Mraci Fire froui Buri.s upon apphcaiioii. or remove any cutaneous erupiions from the skin.

TAR OINTMENT, Forthe cure of pains or weakness in the liver, back or Chest, it will entirely remove any deep seated pain. These remedies have caused many to enjoy the blessings of reinvigoraied health, and in a va¬ riety of desperate and abandoned cases a perfect and radical cure. The numerous impositions upon (he public, and statements of remarkable ciiies never made, yet lesiified lo by feigned names, of by persons wholly unacquainted with what ihey have endorsed, renders it difficult, to do jusiice to the pubfic, in offering suflicient inducemeni lo make a trial of these invaluable medicines. - They are entirely vegetable, and free from all injurious in¬ gredients, and claim your patronage solely upon iheir merits.

Sore Throat, Hoarseness, Palpatation of the Heart, Whooping Cough, Hives, Nervous Tremors, Liver Complaint, and Diseased Kid¬ neys, are radically cured, by Thompson's Com¬ pound Syrup of tar and Wood Naptha. ALTHOUGH the great fatality of Pulmonary Diseases, at this time shows that there are particular cases that render still loo applicable the designation, approbia medicorum—the disgrace oi' physicians—to this call of diseases; and that there are stages in their progress, which havingonce been j rdi&ched, recovery is doubtful. Still no one should despair. The writings of physicians, who have given to these affections particular attention, abound with many recorded cases of recovery when the patient had reached a seeming hopeless stage ol the disease; and there is at this time, a remedy prepared in Philadelphia which has met vvith the most triumphant and cheering success in the ujo''t obstinate forms of Throat and Pulmonary DiseasJs —so as to have obtained the sanction ahd employ¬ ment in the practice of many physicians. Allusion is had to Thompson's Compound Syrup of Tar and Wood Naptha—the preparation of one. who, having given to diseases of the Lungs and their means of cure, the most careful and thorough attention, presented to the public this great remedy. The soothing and curative power of TAR has often been observed in severe coughs, and Con sumption. But in the above preparation, beside some of our most valuable vegetable pectorals tliere is conjoined with it the Wood Naptha, a med¬ icine but lately introduced, but which has been employed with most satisfactory results in England, m Pulmonary Consumption, especially of a Tuber¬ culous form.

BY LIEVT. VV.
Homeward our feet are turned once more— The last to leave—the first lo land—
And now press forward to the shore That girts our own free, northern i.-iiui.
Oh ! how thc heart with rapture thrills '¦
Hov,^ leap, in thought, our mountain rills !
And waves afar the golden grain
Upon our home-fields, wide and tiir—
That we shall see and tread again- Wooed bv our ov.n sweet, summer air !
Homeward—how- much i.s in that word 7—
Home—that we lett long years ago— W'hen first the blast of v>'ar was heard.
On hill above, in vale below. Then how our yeomen hurried forth, From east and west, and south and north ! They met and vanquished oft the foe
On many a hard contested field, Where, with their banners torn and low,
We saw his boasting legions yield.
But this has passed—peace ha.s returned—¦
Our blades are sheathed and idle now ; Blades that on many fields have earned
Bright laurels for the wearer's brow. And now, our soldier's duty done. We leave this land of bloom and sun. Its never-changing summer time—
Its gardens and its olive-groves. And avenues of fragrant lime—
ha fetes, its intrigue.'), and its loves.
Oh ! land of beauty, peerless bright !
Of snow-capped peaks and smiling plain? ; Yet shrouded in a darker night
Than over Egypt's shrines remains! The stranger, parting from thy shore Thy glories to behold no more, Bids thee farewell with swelling heart,
As his swift bark leaps o'er the sea. And as the truant tear-drops start,
Prays God that thou may'ut yet he free.
. Fareu^'ell.'—no ties are broken, though
I've tarried long upon thy soil; i-'arewell.'—though coming as a foe,
I leave thee without hate or spoil; And parting thus—forever—let The stranger hope that yoii|pay yet Rise from your living grave, and stand
Before the nations, just and great— Protecting all wiihin the land—
A free and indepeutlent State.
Farewell.'—thy spires are sinking fast
Behind yon grey, volcanic hills— I feel this look will be the last,
Yet no regret my bosom fills; For all my hopes and all my fears Are with the scenes of earlier years ; Fond memories around me throng.
And shall I, can I, break the spell ! One parting word—a deep, a long,
A hearty, and a last farewell !

AEl. SORTS OF PARAGRAPHS.
A Mock Makhia(;k.—The Reading (Pa.) Press tells a strange story of an outrageous imposition that vvas practised upon an unsuspecting clergy¬ man in the upper end of the county, last week, by a couple of frolicksome young men. It appears that one of them put on female attire, and under an assumed name, went tathe parson with his companion, to he married. The innocent Domi¬ nie, not being well acquainted with the mysteries of stays and petticoats, took it for granted that all was right, and •' lied the indissoluble knot"' without hesitation. > But the joke, hard as it vvas, did not end here; for the counterfeit groom paid the par. son a counterfeit note for his wedding fee! The Press intimates that the young scamps are likely to reap the due deserts of their mischievous freak.

ExpiRixG i>- So>-G.-A singular incident, showing the efTect of music upon a canary bird, occurred at Roxbury within the last few days. A lady of rare musical attainments was playing on the piano^ when all at once her bird, who seemed to have been listening very intently, hurst forth mto a strain of song so loud, shrill and powerful, as at once to ar¬ rest her attention. Nothing like it had been heard before. The little creatures breast seemed actually swelling and. heaving with his eflbrts to give vent to the conceptions with which his tiny heart was beating. AU at once, at the very full tide of his melody, he was silent. His mistress took him from the cage, and he turned over in her hand and died! On dissection, it was found that he had completely split his windpipe from top to Ijottom!

A CoiKciDKNCE.—It is a striking coincidence, and one illustrative of the spirit ofthe age, as well as of the strong feelings of fraternity which bind France and our country together, that at the same time that our country was conferring upon Mr, Vattemare the appointment ot the United States agent in Parisfor international exchange, the French Government selected Major Poussin, an American citizen, and for fifteen years an officer in our service, and still bearing an American title of military rank, as its diplomatic representative near our govern¬ ment.
New Intention.—The St. Louis New Era mentions a device invented by a Mv. Gilbert Van. marter, who is in that city, the plan of which is to run a wheel by weights, which are adjusted by the wheel itself—thus making it a self-propelling ma¬ chine, capable of running as long as the material lasts, thus making it a sort of perpetual motion.
A Graphic Dssckiption-.—A correspondent oi
a New York paper writing from Cape Island gra¬ phically describes the place as follows:—" It has a great quantity of fine white sand on one side, and on the other a great deal more." It would be difjj. cult to surpass the faithfulness of this picture."'??
A Black Coloxel.—A Parisian correspondent of a New York paper, describing the incidents of the " four days" in Paris, gives the following curious item:—"The largest and finest battalion of Garde Mobile I have seen during tiie day, was led by a young, full-blooded negro, tall arid erect and full of military ardor."
