PRACTICAL JOKES AND BAD LIQUOR.

BY THE EDITOR.

It is a well known fact that oftentimes boththose jokes which are called " practical" andthe liquor which is termed " had," have beenproductive of exceedingly evil consequences ;

but whether the liquor or the joke has done

the most mischief, we are riot called upon justnow to determine. We propose to make men-

tion of an affair where bad liquor and a prac-

tical joke were productive of the very bestconsequence imaginable.

LOORING and WEATHER BOARDS,well dressed, also sheathing and laths, can be

at all times had at the Central Planing Mill, which 9will be delivered to the purchasers on any wharfdesignated in town, without charge for transpor-tation.

Persons wishing to have lumber planed st said aMill, are furnished with a flat of convenient sizefree from charge. Apply to the subscriber, twodoors north of the Custom House. T.

SMBS' sarsipawllITFOR THE REMOVAL & PERMANENT

CURE OF ALL DISEASES ARfSINGFROM AN IMPURE STATE OF THEBLOOD, or habit of the system, viz:

Scrolula. or King's Evil, Rheumatism, Obstinate Cuta-

neous Eruptions, Pimples, or Pustules on the Face,Blotches, Uiles, Chronic Sore Eyes, Ring Worm orTetter, Scald Head, Enlargement and Pain of theBones and Joints, Stubborn Ulcers, Syphilitic Symp-

toms, Sciatica, or Lumbago, and Diseases arisingfrom an injudicious use of Mercury, Ascites, or Drop-sy, Exposure, or Imprudence in Life. Also, Chron-ic Constitutional Disorders.

?R;HE VALUE of this preparation is now widely43L known, and every day the field of its usefulness isextending. It is approved and highly recommended byPhysicians, and is admitted to be the most powerful andsearching preparation from the root that lias ever beenemployed in medical practice. It is not local in its ope-ratio-

but general, extending through the whole system.It neutralizes the poisonous elements in the blood, andrestores a healthy tone to the organs which generatethat lluid. In scrofulous and aii external disorders, theresult is a rapid healing of the sores and pustules; inrheumatism, and other painful aflectioBS of the muscu-lar fibre, a speedy removal of the pain, and in all cases,a renewal ol strength, keeping pace with the retreat ofthe disease from the system. It is put up in a highly con-centrated form for convenience and portability, & whendiluted according to the directions, each bottle will makesix times the quantity, equal to one quart, and is thensuperior in medicinal value to the various preparationsbearing the name. 1 he proprietors are almost daily receiving testimonials of the most respectable character,testifying to its great value as an active and curativemedicine.

The following interesting case is presented, and thereader invited to its careful perusal. Comment on suchevidence is unnecessary.

Newark, N. J., March 12, 1846.Messrs. A. B. &D. Sands Mr. Oliver's child, of this

place, was attacked with scrofula when two years old,which soon reduced her to ahnere skeleton. The diseasepervaded the whole system, and manifested itself inmalignant sores on the head, body and limbs. Differentphysicians in Newark, Belleville and New York, prescribed for her at various times, but. finally gave tin the caseas perfectly hopeless. At last Mr. Oliver was induced totry your Sarsaparilla, and accordingly procured four hotlies, which was sparingly administered, with many interruptions, yet with the most decided benefit. Abouttwo months ago 1 become acquainted witn the circum-stances of the case. The child, who is now aged fouryears, was one complete mass of disease, and incapableof using any ot her limbs. Her body was swollen tonearly twice its natural size , thehead, limbs, and bodywere almost entirely covered with largo sores. She wasenable to move, and would take no notice of any thingonly t shrink from being touched even by her mother.The disease, at the same tinie, was equally severe in-

wardly, attended with bloody evacuations every fewhours. They procured some more of the Sarsaparilla,and betoreshe had Vikenone bottle she could slip downfrom the chair and creep across the room. She has nowjust finished takingthe second bottle, and the sores arenearly all healed, the limbs are restored to their naturaluse, she is quite cheerful, and is fast improving in health.

Very respectfully yours, C. J. WaNER,Sec. of Youth's State Tern. Soc.

The following is an extract from a letter receivedfrom Mrs. Sevan, who has been afflicted for severalyears with Scrofulous ulcers, Dyspepsia, &c, and re-cently with an affection of the Throat and Chest :

Bailefsburs, Va., Dec. 13th. 1345.Messrs. A. 13. D. Sands: Before I commenced

using your Sarsaparilla, my sufferings were almost pastexpression ; my throat was completely ulcerated, 1 hada dreadful cough, and there wrere lrequently weeks to-gether that I could not speak above a whisper ; and be-

sides, the inflammation from my throat extended to myhead, sw that my hearing was very much impaired Af-je- r

taking the S irssparilla a short time, my health im-proved, & my throat is now well; I am free from coughami tightness of the chest as ever I was, and can hearquite distinctly. My throat has been well about threemonths, the cure of which has been effected entirely bythe use of your Sarsaparilla. Your friend,

ecution, when the aim on all sides is to pros-

ecute it for the sake of a speedy termination.One thins, however, I may in justice remark,that, unless refuted, tne assignment oi causesmade by the President in his opening messagemust secure to us the verdict of posterity. But,

this as it may, one thing is certain, we are I

engaged in war with an obstinate enemy, andduring its continuance 1 teel bound by thehighest sense of honor to contribute, by everymeans in my power, to the success of mycountry's arms, and the humiliation and over-throw of the enemy. I stop not to ask theapproval of casuist?, when my heart bids me

know only my own country in the contest; ofI fervently trust that God may forever

crown her eagle banner with victory, when-

ever and wherever her sons may unfurl it in to

battle, beneath the broad vault of heaven.Never may its glorious folds, dimmed and dis-

colored with the blood of its soldiers, trail in thedust. 1 should deplore an unjust or an

aggressive war as much as any man ; I wouldleave no proper means untried for an accom-modation ; to secure peace, I would yield ev-rythi- ng

but honor; but whilst war lasted I

would strain every sinew, exert every nervethe nation to impress the enemy and the

world with the terror of our arms. Sir, thehunters-o- p of conscience cases may approve it a

riot I am well assured that this course itmy duty to adopt and pursue. I would not, of

whilst the gloomy cloud of war hung over the island, say to the enemy 4 Go on ! You areright we are wrong ! The God of justice is

your side, and his avenging hand will yet atdeliver to your toils our soldiers bound hand asand foot, so that you may llesh your swords

their bosoms !' Sir, I would not say to ourown brave soldiers 4 March slow trail yourarms vou are engaged in an unjust and unho

war !' No. I would not paralyse their strongarms and valiant hearts in the hour of battle !

would not rob them of the hope of heavenwould not shriek into the ear of the dying

soldier that for him no bright-eye- d ansrelswaited above the smoke of the battle that hemust never hope for paradise !' No ! but Iwould say to our soldiers ' Advance yourstandard ! Wave it high in air ! Let its flash-

ing folds make music ; when the battle is over,let the blaze of victory surround it, or let yourlifeless bodies be piledin pyramids on the goryfield! Onward in this spirit, or dream no moreof the proud wife's kiss, or the mother's bless-ing and her prayer !' For I must confess Ido not comprehend the forecast which propo-ses the withdrawal of our armies, or the pru-dence which declares in advance that we mustattach no Mexican territory to the Union. Iassail no senator's patriotism I speak onlyto what I conceive to be an error of policy,when I say that, in my view, the adoption ofany such proposition amounts, in appearanceat least, to submission; and that whilst on theone hand they are eminently calculated toencourage, the arrogance of Mexico, upon theother they will find no response in the bosomof the United States. Our people will indig-nantly refuse their sanction to any such poli-cy. The slumbering fires of the nation willbe roused at the bare thought of humbling theproud standard of the United States before bar-

barian Mexico. Nor, sir, can I participate inthat sympathy which I have heard invoked inbehalf of Mexico as a sister republic. In thefirst place, the wrongs she has done us, andour citizens resident within her borders, showno very sisterly affection on her part ; and inthe next I must confess my want of sympathywith any people where anarchy rules in thename of liberty. Her history is a libel uponrepublican government. When human sym-pathy shall follow insubordination, misrule,and bloodshed, then, and not till then, will itbe properly invoked for Mexico."

A MOTHER'S LOVE.Happy is he who knows a mother's love !

What is so Purk ? The patriot expectsfame, the friend sympathy, and the lover pleas-ure. Even religion, while she waters her facewith tears, looks forward to the best fruit ofher labors and her love. But maternal affec-

tion springs from the breast uninvokeiby thewant oi hope, unadulterated by the touch otinterest. Its objects are the weak and thewoeful. It haunts the cradle of infantile pain,or hovers near the couch of the faint and theforsaken. Its sweetest smiles break throughthe cloud of misfortune, and its gentlest tonesrise amid the sighs of suffering and of sorrow.It is a limpid and lovely flow of feeling, whichgushes from the fountain-hea- d of purity, andcourses the heart through selfish designs andsordid passions, the unmingling and unsullied.

What is so Firm? Time and misfortune,penury and persecution, hatred and infamy,may roll their dark waves successively overit, and still it smiles unchanged ; or the morepotent allurements of fortune, opulence andpride, power and splendor, may woo her, andyet she is unmoved! A mother 44 loves andloves forever !"

What is so Faithful ? From infancy toage, through good report, the dews of maternalaffection are shed upon the soul. When heart-stricke- n

and abandoned, when branded byahame and followed by scorn, her arms arestill open her breast is still kind. Throughevery trial that love will follow, cheer us inmisfortune, support us in disease, smooth thepillow of pain, and moisten the bed of death !

Happy is he who knows a mother's love !

HARPOONING A DINNER.In New Orleans, a singular dodge is practi-

sed, to enable the poor and hungry to raise adinner. At some of the Restaurants, or Res-torativ-

as they are called in this city, a largeiron pot is kept on the fire, or furnace set inthe middle of the floor. Around this pot youwill see a doen or two hungry, seedv look-in- g

titled to plunge a long fork into the boilingpot. in which are hunks of beef and pork,bobbing up and down, five or six times, beinga cent a throw. If the harpooner strikes nomeat, he is still entitled to a bowl of broth, &by crumbling his bread in it, it serves for apretty goo.l dinner to the hundreds of hard-u- p

gentry to be found in that Crescent city. Thefork is well worn by its repeated use, and thepoints are a little turned up, and the kettle be-

ing deep, it is almost impossible to bit a chunkof meat, while they are bobbing about. Wthave seen four or five in succession trv it, andthey dined on soup. Truly this may be call-ed the luck of the fork .'

This novel mode of getting a dinner, remindsme of another dodge they used to have in thewest. An old fellow7 used to stop to get a boatgoing down the river towards Orleans or St.Louis, and they were not so plenty ten or fif-

teen years ago as now, so that when waterwas low, you might lay at Cumberland a dayor a fortnight before you could get off. Well,the old tavern keeper used to keep his houseupon the Insurance principle. On registeringyour, name, you paid ten dollars, and if a boatcame by in the next hour, bound your way, youcould not reclaim your money; but "if noboat came along in a month, you had no moreto pay for your board. The old fellow was ajolly landlord and got rich.

sort of whispered howl, replied :Bags, ye bonor !"

Many years ago, wnne tne state 01 ieor-gi- a

was still in its infancy, an eccentric crea-

ture, named Brown, was one of its CircuitJudges. He was a man of considerable abili-

ty,be

of inflexible integrity, and much belovedand respected by all the legal profession, buthe had one common fault. His social quali-

ties would lead him, despite his judgment, in-

to frequent excesses. In travelling the Cir-

cuit it was his almost invariable habit, thenight before opening Court, to get " comfort-

ably corned," by means of appliances com-

monto

upon such occasions. If he couldn't suc-

ceedand

while operating upon his own hook, themembers of the bar would generally turn inand help him.

It was in the Spring of the year; taking hiswife a model of a woman in her way inthe old fashioned, but strong 44

carry-all,- " that thehe journeyed some forty miles, and reached avillage where " Court" was to be opened nextday. It was along in the evening of Sundaythat he arrived at the place and took up quar-ters with a relation of his " better half," bywhom the presence of an official dignitary was ofconsidered a singular honor. After supperJudge Brown strolled over to the only tavernin the town, where he found many old friends, orcalled to the place, like himself, on important isprofessional business, and who were properlyglad to meet him.

"Gentlemen," said the judge, "'tis quite alongtime since we have enjoyed a glass togeth-er

onlet us take a drink all round. Of course,

Sterritt, (addressing the landlord) you havebetter liquor than you had the last time we inwere here the stuff you had then was not fitto give a dog."

Sterritt, who had charge of the house, pre-tended

lythat every thing was right, and so they

went to work. It i unnecessary to enlarge Iupon a drinking bout in a countiy tavern it I

will quite answer our purpose to state thatsomewhere in the regions of midnight theJudge wended his very devious way towardshis temporary home. About the time he wasleaving, however, some younger barristers,fond of a " practical," and not much afraid ofthe bench, transferred all the silver spoons ofISterritt to the Judge's coat pocket.

It was eight o'clock of Monday morningthat the Judge rose. Having indulged in theprocess of ablution and abstersion, and parta-ken of a cheerful and refreshing breakfast, hewent to his room to prepare himself for theduties of the day.

" Well, Polly," said he to his wife, " I feelmuch better than I expected to feel after thatfrolic of last night."

" Ah, Judge," said she, reproachfully, "youare getting too old vou ought to leave offthat business."

o ' Ah, Polly what's the use of talking?It was at this precise instant of time, that

the Judge, having put on his over-co- at

proceeding, according to his usual custom, togive his wile a parting kiss, that he happened, in thrusting his hand into his pocket, tolay hold of Sterritt's spoons. He jerked themout. With an expression of horror almost indescribable, he pxclaimed

" My God ! Polly !"" What on earth's the matter, Judge ?"" Just look at these spoons."

Dear me, where d'ye get them."" Get them ? Don't you see the initials on

them" extending them towards her "I stolethem."

" Stole them, Judge ?"" Yes, stole them."" My dear husband, it can't be possible !

from whom ?"" From Sterritt, over there, his name is on

them."" Good Heavens ! how could it happen ?"44 1 know very well, Polly I was very drunk

when I came home, wasn't I ?"44 Why, Judge, you know your old habit

when you get among those lawyers."41 Hut was I very drunk .'"' Yes, ioa was.''

44 Was (remarkably drunk when I got home,Mrs. Brown ?"

44 Yes, Judge, drunk as a fool, and fortytimes as stupid."

44 1 thought so," said the Judge, droppinginto a chair, in extreme despondency 44 1

knew it would come to that at last. I havealways thought that something bad wouldhappen to me that I should do somethingwrong kill somebody in a moment of pas-sion, perhaps -- but I never imagined that Icould be mean enough to be guilty of delibe-ral- e

larceny."44 Hut there may be some mistake, Judge."44 No mistake, Polly. I know very well

how it all came about. That fellow, Sterritt,keeps the meanest sort of liquor, m( alwaysdid liquor mean enough to make a man doany sort of a mean thing. I have always saidit was mean enough to make a man steal,and now I have a practical illustration of the

a fart" and the poor old man burst into tears.0

" Don't be a child," said his wife, wiping a-w- ay

his tears, 44 go like a man over to Sterritt,tell him it was a liMe bit ol a frolic pass itoff as a joke go and open court, and nobodywill ever think of it again."

A little of the soothing system operated up-on the Judge, as such things usually do ; hisextreme mortification was finally subdue',and over to Sterritt's he went, with a tolerableface. Of course, he had bat little difficulty insettling with him for aside from the fact "thatthe Judge's integrity was ttnquestionable, hehad an inkling of the joke that had been play-ed. The Judge took his seat in court, but "it

a observed that he was sad and meloncholly,a:ul that his mind frequently wandered fromthe business before him. There was a lackof the sense and intelligence that usually char-acterized his proceedings.

Several days passed away, and the businessof the court was drawing towards a close,when, one morning, a rough-lookin- g sort of acustomer was arraigned on a charge ofstealing. After theclerk had read the indict-ment to him, he put the question :

" Guilty, or not guilty?""Guilty but drunk," answered the prisoner." What's that plea?" exclaimed the judge,

who was half dozing on the bench.He pleads guilty, but says he was drunk,"

replied the clerk.44 What's the charge against the man?"" He is indicted for grand larcenv."44 What's the case ?"" May it please your honor," said the pros-

ecuting attorney, "the man is regularly indic-ted for stealing a large sum from the 'Colum-bus Hotel."

44 He is, hey ? and he pleads"44 He pleads guilty, but drunk."The Judge was now fully aroused.44 Guilty, butdrwikl that is a most extraor- -

44 Yes, sir."" Where did you get your liquor ?"44 At Sterritt's."4' D'ye get none no where else ?"41 Not a drop, sir."" You got drunk on hi?, liquor, and after-

wards stole his money .'"" Yes, sir."44 Mr. Prosecutor," said the Judge, "do methe favor to enter a noilprosequi in that man'scase. That liquor of Sterritt's is mean enough
