About the last of the week, I went Into a drug store to get some medicine for my child and myseif. There ware several of the village physicians in the store, and one of thena seemed te take some interest in my case and, after asking me some qw-stians, raid he had been a dyspeptic,^nd bad been greatly b; ne litted by the use of " Dr. Heofland's German Bit ters," prepaid by you, and be insisted that I would try the Biusrs He also called the next day at mv room, and insisted so much that I would try them that I asked him to get me one bottle. He did it, aad 1 commenced taking it as directed, and I do say 1 was more benefitted by it than all the water and medicine I had ever taken. After reaching home one of my neighbors came to me for a prescription and medicine, (be a dyspep tic,) and i gave him nearly all the Bitters I had left, which effected much good in his cm He has often called on me for more of the same k nd of roedi ciae, saying he was more benefitted by it than any other he had taken, but I have not been able to get any more for him or myself since; will yon, tliero fore, plead- ship me a dozen or more as soon as pos sible.

THE BON*P tRTK FAMILY [ OorwpondfOo# of lha Hvaning Htmr J Baltucobb, Mareh 31. In mj last I tutted that my townsman Prinoe Jerome Bonaparte, designed short ly visiting Europe, with a view of ar ranging his future permanent residence in Paris. Of this there is no doubt, and he will set sail probably in a very short time. A letter has been received here from his son, Lieutenant Jerome, attached to the French oavalry at SebastoBol, in which he is represented as in gooa health and spirits, and much delighted with the adventures of the eampaign.' If no ad verse circumstances happen, this voang branch of the imperial stook has before him a bright ana glorious career.. The throne of France may yet be at his oom mand. : It would seem from present indica tions that there is a strong, aud I may add, laudable desire, upon the part oi Emperor Bonaparte to gather the entire family together upon that soil to which, ?nd to whose inhabitants, the renowned name is so sacred. When Jerome and his family shall have departed from our shore#, there will be but one of them lef. in the United States,and that one Madame Bonaparte, wife of ex-king Jerome. She is still a resident of our city, and in everj step a queen. Would it not be well for the present Emperor, while he is invit ing those of his name and kindred to make their home in France, to include the Madame, mother of Jerome senior ? She is a lady of superb accomplishments, exquisite manners, great dignity of cha racter, and would shine as a brilliant star at the Imperial court. Her heart is filled with the love of France, and the name of Bonaparte is her greatest pride. Such an acquisition to the royal family would aasundly do it honor. R. ''CIVILITIES." There is probably no class of people, writes a friend, more courteous to each other than ahip captains ; more especially do they illustrate the good leeling of their salt-water natures, when meeting a i brother chip and ship in distress Not long aince, a captain of a whaler had th? misfortune to lose his ship and all his personal effects ; but escaping with life, I took up his residence on sn island of the Pacific, occasionally visited by whalers I and at last had the inexpressible joy of I discovering a sail in sight, which gave I him some hope of renewing his inex-| pre6sibles, (which had become fit habili meats for a cook, being "cool and airy,") I and of leaving his lonely abode. In due I time the ship was ready to sail, and ofI course the shipwrecked captain had be I oome the guest of its commander. Butl being impressed with the humble posi-1 tion he then filled, he kept himself verv I retired, and invariably took the lee side! ol the quarter deck, where he stumped I up and down with an uncertain and spas-1 raodic gait?occasioned by one leg being I an ineh or two shorter than the othe.-? I maintaining a dignified s lence. For two I days, the rough old whaler stood this I roeerve of his passenger; but his pa-1 tieoce becoming exhausted he at last ad-1 dressed him as follows: I " Cap'en Brown, you have been ship -1 wrecked, haven't ye ?" 1 "Yes!" 44 Tou've lost yer ship, haint ye ?" A mournful wave of the hand signified I the fact. I 44 Tcu haint got no moaey, neither, I Cap'en Brown?in course not: how I eould you have? Well, Cap'en Brown, I 1'am a plain-spoken man, and I hails I from Gape Cod; and I has feller feelings, I Cap'en Brown. What I says I means, I and I say to you, Oaj 'en Brown, here's I my ship at your service; you're ' tu J hum' here ; there's your state-room, I Cap'en Brown ; they are all at vour sar-1 vice. 1 knows my duty to a feller sailor as is unfortunate and iu distress." j Captain Brown halted in promenade. I turned towards his host, ai^i after sun-1 dry mysterious gesticulations, indicating the utmost appreciation of his humble I position, replied: ! 44 Captin Skinner, I understands you But I Knows my position. 'Tib true I haint got no ship?she's 4 wracked,' and I've lost my 4 voyge'?I doesn't desarve but little or nuthin at your hands, and all I asks and expects, Captin Skinner, is civilities?civilities, Captin Skinner. I and these of the most commonest kind." j 44 But, Cap'en Brown, my 4 chist' and I my * pus' is at your service." 44 No, Captin Skinner, I don't desarve 'em; and all I asks, Captin Skinner, is civilities, Captin Skinner?cifilitice of the most commonest kind." j And for the whole of that long voyage homeward did Cap en Brown adhere to I his resolution, to receive nothing but civ ilities, and those of the most commonest kind.?Knickerbocker. j Ikbun M cmmii a.?George 0. Bates writes to the Detroit Advertiser that the great mystery among the Savans of the I world?to wit: by whatever process of art or skill in science the mummies found I in the pyramids of Egypt have been pre-1 served, and in which modern skill has I exhausted all its resources in fruitless efforts to analyse, is known on the shores of the Pacific, among-the wandering races of the Chinooks and the Flat heads. These rude savares understand and practice this art With as much suc oess as attended the efforts of the an-1 cient Egyptians. Mr. Bates says : At the famous depository for the form ers of California, on Montgomery street, are two specimens which are well calcu lated tp arouse the attention of the re flecting, and to a how how intimating, after all, are the relations of the past and the future. The former of these is a Flathead mummy, foun^n his canoe on the shores of Pugtl Sound in a perfect state of preservation. Those who have seen the EypUan mummy, would be ut TKfe Weekly stab.

The forch?a'l of the skull has been evi dently depressed by outward mechanise I appliances, but, in all else, it is the mummy of the pyramid, in a perfect state of ]#m 1 atr.a. Tbs eye balls are still rounds under the lid; the taeth, the muscles and ten<lons perfect, the thus injected with some preserving liquid, the bowels. stomach and liver dried up, but not decayed, all perfectly preferred. The Tory blanket tliat entwines him, made of some threads of bark and saturated with a pitchy subetanoe. ia entire. The in ner canoe, in which he was found, was entirely decayed, and the outer one was nearly gone, yet the body was evidently just as it was prepared by the embe'mer; and, although expoe?d now to the open air, it shows no atrn of decomposition. It would seem as it pre pared for sll coming time.

DIAL GXffTLY WITH TBI EREIVO st irara asa wears. Could we but for a moment draw aside the veil from the human heart, what aw ful mysteries would be revealed f Oould we bat read the secrets indelibly en graven there, how ve?-y much that we have looked upon with indignation and contempt, would we be led to look upon with pity and with kindness ! Many, very many may have fallen; yes, from the very pinnacle of fame and honor, to the unparalleled depths of vioe and wretchedness; did wc out know the many temptations which have crowded them selves upon tbeir path: did we but know the flattering inducements held to their view by loved and professed loving ones* thoughtless of the fearful oonsequenoes which might ensue, and, abovs all, did we but realiae the unutterable anguish, which ofttimes takes possession of that sensitive soul, oonscience and duty would demand our pi'y and sympathy; and a* stead of awaking painful recollect ions, d? ?sll in our pswer to mitigats their woaa. This would we be led to svoid in look, thought, or deed, eveiything that wouUI give offence or cause a thrill of pain. We are surrounded by sensitive hearls, which one careless word might fill wi'h cor roding griet. A kind word is indaed a smalt tiling; yet to tho bleeding heart what a rdief! It buoys the sinktng heart, and uerves it Against despair. Sunny smiles may gtt tiines conceal a heart that is even now breaking, and wears but the semblance of joy, the more effectually to conceal its wretchedness. A kind word msy dispel the gloom and keal the wounded spirit. Mark that sad aad lonely one, in whose eye the tear-drops often tremble. I isteo to the low sigh that struggles to hids the soul's emotion, yst speaks mors plainly than words can tell, of the agony that rages within. There is indeed bitterness there; the world may not heed it?may even look with scornful gaze, or pass by in utter coldness. Is it not then our duty to aoc as angels of mercy to thst bsmgntM, de sponding heart ??to soothe its despond ency, and point to a brighter hep*. There is music ^ a kindly word Jiat can soften the hard?t {heart/and when onoe the better feelings are roused there is hope. A harsh or unfeeling word may Ull like a withering curse, and urge on to ruin or despair thousands who otherwiso might be reclaimed. Therefore, is it our duty to be kind to all, to the lowest and meanest of God's creatures. It wiU oost us nothing, and may be the messenger of peace, comfbrt, and happiness to the de sponding, despairing one. Words of love and tenderness are sweeter, dearer, and of far more value than aueht else this cold, se'.tish world can yield to miserable, fallen man. How Tns Truxs Divikt Taxis Womx*.
