I shrink from its iuddy glow ; And white and cold a deadly fear Drops into my heart like snow. Oh ! pledge me not with wine, dear love ! Through its midst ot iosy foam I count the beats of a broken heartâ€" I see a desolate home. Oh 1 pledge me not with wine, dear love ! 1 shiver with icy dread ; Each drop to me is a tear of blood That sorrowful eyes have shed. I have a picture laid away Under the dust of years, Come look 011 it and your heart will burst Like a summer cloud in tears. Night and a storm of autumn sleetâ€" A hearth without fire or lightâ€" A womanâ€"an angry manâ€"a door That opens it.to the night. Hot hands that cling to the crazy latch, Lips rigid and white with painâ€" A curseâ€"a blowâ€"and a wailing babe Borne out in the wind and rain. A woman dead, with her long, loose hair Soaked wet in the weeping storm. And her pallid arms half fallen back From a babe’s waxen form. A woman dead in the pitiless rain; And sparkling on the sand, Dear God !â€"a golden marriage ring. Dropped loose from her wasted hand A white moon striving through broken clouds A horrified man at prayerâ€" The cry of a passionate heart’s remorse And a passionate heart's despair. This is the picture laid away Under the dust of years, For thus does the red wine look to me, The flowing of bloody tears. Oil pledge me not though the wine is bright As the rarest light that flows Through the sunset’s cloudy gates of fire, Or the morning’s vein of rose. I’ut down the cup ! It is brimmed with blood Crushed throbbing from hearts like mine ! For hope, for peace, and for love's sake, Oh ! pledge me not with wine. JUiiDoni JhuMngs. How to Punch a Man.â€"“Judge, you say if T punch a man in Tun, he can take me up for as*ault and battery I” k Yes,\ir, I said that, and what I say I repeat. If you punch a man you are guilty of a breach of the peace, and can be arrested for it.’ ‘ Ain’t there no exception* V ‘ No, -ir, no exceptions whatever.’ < Now, Judi£e, I guess you at‘* mistaken â€"suppose, for instance, 1 should brandy punch him, what then]’ ‘ No levity in court, sir; Sheriff, ex- pose this man to the atmosphere. Call the next case.” Everything in a Name.â€"A gen- tleman that loved everything that was foreign, and was extremely torn! ot hard names, dmiug at a friends house, asked him what the name of the wine was, ol which he had just drank a glass at table? liis friend knowing lhat it was but indif- ferent, and recollecting that lie had bought it at blocks Market, told him it was true Stocko Marketto; upon which he found it excellent, and gave it great encomiums A man and his wife were striving about who should wear the breeches; in the jpean time one knocked at the dooi.â€" The good man stepped out to see who was there, and asked him whom he wished to speak with. The ptrson answered, he wished to speak to the master of the house. ‘Wait,’ said he, ‘ a little time and I will answer you, for as yet the case is doubtful.’ So stepping in, his wife and he went to it again, and she at last yielded him the victory. ‘ Now, friend, thou mayest speak with me. 1 am the master of the house; but I could not tell thee si before, because my wife and I had not de- rided the controversy.’ An Irish gentleman perceiving lhat one of the great brancues of an apple tree in his gaiden had been by some accident en- tirely blasted, was determined to lop it off. To effectuate his purpose, the shrewd son of St. Patrick mounted the tree, and got across the withered branch, and be- gan very deliberately to saw off betwixt himself and the main trunk. The wither- ed branch being nearly cut through, gave way, and down tumbled the gallant Hiber- nian, not a little stunned by the fall, and considerably bruised by the weight of the incumbent branches, but still more aston 1 The Russians nuve long exhibited a remarkable taste fur juggling and ! all that smacks of the marvellous. [Conjurors professors of natural magic, ventriloquists, aud the entire race of mountebanks, who in France and England astonish the gaping crowds at races and country fairs, ever find a ready welcome and liber- al encouragement among the higher classes in the Russian cities. About the beginning of the present century a species of Caglic-stro, or rather a superior kind of Wizard of the North, made his appearance at S . Petersburg!!, and astonished the natives by his marvellous perform- aces. His name was Pi 1 netti, and liis fame is yet retained in the me- i mory of those who witnessed his un- rivalled talents. The Czar Alexander, having : heard Pirnetti much spoken of, was desirous of seeing him, and one day | it was announced to the conjuror i that he would have the honor of giving a representation of his magical powers at court, the hour fixed for jhim to make his appearance being ! seven o'clock. A brilliant and nu- jmerous assembly of ladies and cour- : tiers, presided over by the Czar, had 1 met, but the conjuror was absent. Surprised and displeased, the Czar pulled out his watch which indicated five minutes after seven.â€"Pirnetti had net only failed in being in wait- ing, but had caused the court to wait, and Alexander was not more patient than Louis XiV. A quarter of an hour passed, half an hour, and no Pirnetti! Messengers who had teen sent to seach for him, returned unsuccessful. The anger of the Czar, wit:., difficulty restrained, dis- played itself in threatening exclam- ations. At length, after the lapse of an hour, the door of the saloon opened, end the gentleman of the chamber announced Pirnetti, who presented himself with a calm front, and the serenity of one who had no- thing to reproach himself with. The Czar, however, was highly dis- pleased ; but Pirnetti assumed an air of astonishment, and replied with the gieatest coolness, ‘Did not your majesty command my presence at seven o clock precisely V •Just so! exclaimed the Czar, at the height of exasperation. ‘Well, then.’ said Pirnetti, ‘lei your majesty deign to look at your watch, you will perceive that 1 atn exact, and that it is just seven o’clock.’ The Czar, pulling out his watch violently, in order to confound what he considered a piece of downright insolence, was completely amazed. The watch marked 7 o’clock. In turn the courtiers drew out their watches, which were found as usual exactly regulated by that of so- vereign. Seven o’clock ! indicated with a common accord all the watches anu clocks of the palace. The art of the magician was at once manifest in this strange retrogres- sion iu the march of time. To au- gur succeeded astonishment and ad- mirat on. Perceiving*that the Czar smiled, Pirnetti thus addressed him : ‘ Your majesty will pardon me. It was by tlie performance of this trick that I was desirous of making my first appearance before you. But 1 know how precious truth is at Court ; it is at least neeessan that your watch should tell it to you sire. If \ ou consult it now you will find it marks the real time.’ The Czar once more drew forth his watchâ€"!t pointed to a few min- utes past eight. The same rectifi- cation had taken place in all the watches of those present, and in all the clocks of the palace. This ex- ploit was followed by others equally amusing and surprising. At the close of the performance the Czar, after having complimented Pirnetti, brought back to his remembrance, that in the course of the evening amusement, he had declared that such wras the power of his art that he could penetrate everywhere. ‘ Yes, sire, everywhere,’ replied the conjuror, with modest assurance. ‘What!’ exclaimed the Czar, ‘ could you penetrate even into this palace, were I to order all the doors to be closed and guarded V * Into this palace, sire, and even into the apartment of your majesty, quite as easil\ as I should enter mv idied at the mystery of this inexplicable, hoiwe>. said Pirnetti.

His illustrious com- mander, whose vigilance was unremitting, for he had an fye oat upon such occasions, on hf>ai ing of the officer’s accident, visited him in his cabin, though wounded himself, as soon as the battle was over, and ex- pressed his concern for the misfortune. The officer with e^ual gallantry and politeness then said,â€"‘ Admiral you lead the fashions here, and he must indeed be destitute of taste who is not proud on this day to be like you in any thing.’ * My advice to vou. Miss,’ said a very plain spoken gentleman to a pretty girl whom he found coloring her cheeks, ‘ is that you don’t undeitake to change your- self from what nature made you.’ * My advice to you,.sir,’ said she, pettishly, ‘is that you change yourself as much as possible.’ enforced, confidential persons hav- ing watched their execution. Ihe exterior openings lo the palace were guarded by tiie soldiery. All the approaches to the imperial apart- ments were protected by big digni- taries, whitii a simple professor of the art of legerdemain possessed no means of bribing. In short, for greater security, a’l the keys had been carried to tiie imperial cabinet. A few minutes previous to the hour fixed for Piruetti’s interview with the Czar, the chamberlain 011 ser- vice brought to his majesty a dis- patch which a messenger had hand- ed through an opening in the door. It as a report from the minister of police that Pirnetti had not left home. ‘ Aha ! he has found out that the undertaking is impracticable, and he has abandoned it,’ observed the Czar, with a smile. Twelve o’clock sounded. While the Inst stroke yet reverberated, the door which communicated from the bedroom of the Czar to the cabinet opened, and Pirnetti appeared 1 I he Czar drew back a couple of paces, his brow darkened, and after a momentary silence, while fixing a suspicious look on Pirnetti. he says : * Are you awirj that you may become a very dangerous individ- ual.’ * Yes, sire,’ he replied, ‘ but I am only a humble conjuror, with no other ambition than lhat ot amusing your majesty.’ ‘ Here,’ said the Czar, * are the thousand roubles for last night, and a thousand more lor this day’s visit.’ Pirnetti, in offering Ins thanks, was interrupted by the Czar, who, with a thoughtful air enquired of himâ€" ‘ Do you count on yet remaining some time in St. Petersburgh V ‘Sire,’ he replied, ‘1 intend set- ting off this week, unless \ our ma- jesty ordersj a prolongation of my sojourn.’ ‘ j\o.’ hastily observed the Czar, ‘ it is not my intention to detain you ; and, moreover,’ continued he with a smile, ‘ 1 should vainly endeavor to keep you against your will. You know how to leave St. Petersburg as easily as you have found your way into this palace.’ ‘1 could do so, sire,’ said Pirnet- ti ; ‘but far from wishing to quit St. Petersburg stealthily or myste- riously, I am desir.ous of quitting it 11 the most public manner possible, bv giving to the inhabitants of your capital a striking example of my magical powers ’ Pirnetti could not leave like an ordinary morta1. It was necessary lhat he should crown his success in the Russian capital by something surpassing liis previous effortâ€" therefore, on the evening preceding the day fixe J lor hL departure, tie announced that lie should leave fc*t. Peteisburg the following day at ten n’clocl; in the morning, and that he sdiould quit by all the c ty gates at thesame moment! Public curiosity was excited to the highest degree by this announcement. St. Peters- burg at this tune had fifteen gates, which weie encompassed by a mul- titude eager to witness this marvell- ous dopartu.e. Tbe spectators at these various gates all declared that at ten o’clock precisely Pirnetti. whom they all perfectly recognized, passed through. ‘ He walked at a slow pace and with head erect, in order to be better seen,’ they said ; ‘ and bade us adieu in a clear and audible voice.’ f hess unanimous testimonies were confirmed by the written declaration of the officers placed at every gate to inspect the passports of travellers. The inspection of Pirnetti’s passport was inscribed in the fifteen registers. Where is the wizard, whether com- ing from the north or south, wTho could in these degenerate days per- form so astonishing an exploit? The Scottish American Journal DEVOTED TO THE But I forewarn you that the doors shall be closed and carefully guard* ‘To-morrow, at mid-day, I shall have the honor of presenting myself before your majesty.* replied Pir- netti. who bowed and withdrew. Two gentlemen of the household followed the conjuror to make sure that he quitted the palace ; they ac- companied him to his lodgings, and a number of tho police surrounded the dwelling from the moment he entered it. The palace was instant- ly closed, with positive orders not to suffer, under any pretext what* ever, any one to enter, were he prince or valet, until the Czar hinrv* self should command the doors to be opened. These orders were strictly Interests of Scotchmen in America, anu to the dissemination or SCOTTISH LITERATURE AJND ART tCONSIDERING the multiplicity of news- ) papers 111 America, it has to many been a matter of surprise that the numerous body of Scottish residents should have been so long un- represented To supply this desideratum, No. I, of tlie Scottish American Journal was published on Saturday, August 6, 1857. and is low continued weekly. The primary object of the Journal is to fur- nish its readers regularly with the news of their native country. It presents a weekly re- cord of ail events of interest occun ing in Scot- land, and its subscribers are in ihis way as fully inlo med of what is transpiring at home as il they were in regular recoipt of an oid-country newspaper. Scottish questions will be discussed with intelligence and impartiality iu the editor- ial columns, and tlie sentiments of the leading parlies on these subjects will be fairly repre- sented and commented upon. In the liierary and miscellaneous- department of the paper, while merit and talent will be ap- preciated from whatever country they emanate, tlie Scottish element will preponderate. Tales, sketches, and poetry, illustrative of the Scottish character, and of a liatuie fitted to call forth the sympathies of Scotchmen both at home and abroad, will occupy a conspicuous place, hi this department, the co-operation of various distinguished authors, possessing unrivalled facilities for the task, has been secured- in politics, the Journal will occupy a thoroughly independent position, alike free from party bias and national prejudice. In or- der to ii terest its readers wherever situated, it will take a broad view of topics of ihis class, choiding those of a merely local nature, except in so far as they may p;esent points of import- ance to the general public Questions involv- ing the interests of British residents in the United States and in tiie British Provinces, will be specially consideied, and it is believed that the information and news of the Journal on this impo taut class â-  f subjects will be such as shall command attention. The Scottish American Journal, will in every respect be conducted in an efficicit and busit.ess like rnanrer, with every requisite guarantee for its permanence. The proprietors, who are responsible parties, resident in New York anu elsewhere, therefore look with con- fidence for the support of their numerous cotin- trynien in all parts of America, and they will he glad to communicate with respectable par- ties at a distance who may be disposed to co- operate with them for the establishment of the paper iu their respective localities. A publication estab'ished with these objects must of course look for support mainly from those connected by birth or descent with the country whose current history it chronicles : but as the broad basis of this journal necessi tates, iu addition, the treatment of all import* ant questions affecting American interests, and a» its literature will be cosmopolitan, it is hoped that even to the general reader its columns will not appear uneiitertaininjr or iirolitltss.

MORSE, the inventor of Morse’s Indian Root fills, has spent the greater portion of his life in travelling, having visited Europe, Asia and Africa, as well as North Americaâ€" has spent three years among th j Indians of our Western countryâ€"it wa- in this way that ihe Indian Root Pills were first discoveied. D . Morse was the tirst man to establish tho iact that all diseases a:i.-e fiom IMPURITY OF THE BLOODâ€"that our strength, health and life depended upon this v tal fluid. When the various pas? ge^ become clogged, and do not act in perfect harmony with the dif- ferent functions of the body, the blood lof-es its action, becomes thick, con upted and diseased ; thus catising all pains, sickness and dist ess of every name ; our strength is exhausted, our hoalth we are deprived of, and if nature is not assisted in throwing off the stagnant humors, the blood will become choked and cease to act, and thos our li^ht of life will be forever blown out. How important then lhat we should keep the various passages of the body free and open. And how pleasant to us that we have it in our power to put a medicine in your reach, namely, Morse’s Indian Hoot Pills, manufactured from plants and roots which grow around the mou 1- atnious cliffs in Nature’s Garden, for the health and recovery of diseased man. One of the roots from which these Pills are made is a Sudorific, which opens ihe pores of the skin, and assists Nature in throwing out the finer parts of the corruption within. The second is a plant which is an Expectorant, that vpens and uni; logs the passage to the lungs by copious spitting. 'The third is a Diuretic, which gives ease aud double strength to tho kidneys; thus encouraged, they draw laige amounts of im- purity from the blood, which is then thrown out bountifully by 'he urinary or water passage, and which could not have been discharged in any other way. The fourth is a Cathartic, and accompanies the other propeities o! the Pills while engaged in purifying the blood ; the coarser particles of impurity which cannot pass by the other outlets, are thus taken up and From the above, it is shown that Dr. Mo'se’s Indian Root Pills not only enter the stomach, but become united with the blood, for they find their way to every part, and complete- ly rout and release the system from all impm^v, aud the life of the body, which is the blooa, becomes porfectly healthy; consequently all sickness and pain is driven from the system, for they cannot remain when the body becomes so pure and clear. The reason why people are so distressed when sick, and why so many die, is because they do not get a medicine hich will pass to the afflicted parts, and which will open the natural passage for the disease to be cast out; hence, a large quantity of food and other matter is lodged, and the stomach and intestines are literally overflowing- with the corrupted mass ; thus undergoing disagreeable fermentation, constantly mixing with the blood, which throws the corrupted matter through every vein and artery, until life is taken from the body b> disease. Dr. Morse’s PILLS have added to themselves victory upon victory, by restoring millions of the sick to blooming health and hap- piness. Yes, thousands who have been racked or tormented with sickness, pain and anguish, and whose feeble frames have been scorched by the burning elements of fever, and who have been brought, as it were, within a step of he silent grave, now stand ready to testify that they would have been numbered with the dead, had it not been for this great and wonderful medicine, Morse’s Indian Root Pills. After one or two doses had been taken, they were as tonished, and absolutely surprised, in witnessing their charming effects. Not only do they give immediate ease and strength, and take away all sickness, pain and anguish, but they at once go to work at the foundation of the disease, which is the blood. Therefore, it will he shown, especially by those who use these PilL, lhat they will so dense and purify, that diseaseâ€" that deadly enemyâ€"will take its flight, and the flush of youth and beauty will again return, and the prospect of a long and happy life will cherish and brighten your days.

The object of the Woman’s Advocate is the opening out of new spheres of employment for women who have so long suffered the distress attendant upon the insufficient temuneration, and a too limited number of occupations. The paper endeavors to cofeet ail informa- tion that can he important to women, relative to occupations better suited to them, and which will yield a more comfortable subsistence than the few unhealthy trades upon which they have been so far obliged to depend for exis- tence. The Advocate employs, in the various de- partments of the business, many W'omeii, who are paid for their labor as high prices as are [>aid to men for tlie same amount of work. To the editor and proprietor the past thiee years in which she has been engaged in this work, have been years of anxiety and toil; I ut the enterprize has been carried ou with the hope of doing good to others, and finally pushing the business to a successful point, when it may re- munerate all concerned. With this hope she enters the field for another year, trusting to the many assurances of friends m all parts of the country, for aid and co-operation.
