The Round Table. The round table was a game practiced by English knights in the days of Henry 111. The 'name was derived from a fra ternity-of knights, who frequently joust ed or played at a lance-game with each other, and accustomed themselves to eat together in one apartment; and in or der to set aside all distinction of rank • or quality, seated thems - Jvcs at the circul:ii• table, where every place was equally honorable. Roger de Mortimer, a noble• man of great opulence, established a round table at Kenilworth, for the en couragement of military pastimes, where one hundred knights, with as many ladies, Were entertained at his expense. Afterward, a more expensive round table was erected by Edward HI, at Windsor. This one was on a very extensive scale. It contained the area of a circle whose diameter was two hundred feet. Games . And Military exercises were, carried on by the young knights, who assembled here, with a view of attaining all• the re quisites'of a soldier. The example of King Edward being followed by Philip of Valois, King of France, he drew to hii , court many who would have gone to England. But the contest of the two monarchs had the ef feet(to'use a vulgar phrase) of running the .thing. into the ground. The round table was abolished, and the order of the garter - succeeded it. The ceremonial parts of this order are retained to the present accord with the 'customs and manners of society in • the nineteenth ceptury. A ~Eo,.ing Animal. Extracted from theUuman Eye. ' A liyinglyrtid, of the species 4stice rous cellulose, belonging to the entosa, a aeries of insects inhabiting the internal parts of animals, was recently ' extracted, frpm the eye of a female by M. Woolcott, tl.l&pcOulist; foUnder and late surgeon, of the, ,Kent County Opthalin;c Hospital,. Maidstone. The animal had been per ceiVed for sonic time floating unattached }n' : tl3 r e interior Chambei of the eye;. and, sight was , almost entirely lost by frequent attatlis of infiardation: The occurrence f the entozoon in the human eye is eery fare, and this - is the second case only which' hai come under Mr. Woolcott's treatment during twenty years practice as an occulist. — The first Came under his notice _at the OPthUbmic'llospital iu 1340 soon= after,. that 'institution 'was fOU n'd and .tio'n examination.. with • the • micro-' scope - after extractitin;two of the progeny were- found attached to the tail vehicle pf the,.eysticeroul. :SII6CESSF CIL EDITORS.-Au English writer says: "A good editor, a compe tent newspaper conductor,is like a gen• eral or a poet, born, not Made. .Exercise and experience give facility, hitt the . .qualification is innate,- or it 'is never manifested. On the London daily Papers till the great Historians; novelists, poets, Essayists, and the writers' of travels, have been tried,and nearly every one has failed.

U; HESS' Book Storo , Loilust St july 130, , Scrofula, or King's Evil , is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which this fluid becomes • vitiated, weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. What ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con stitution, descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ; " indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, "I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their ehildren." Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or, ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor ruption, which , genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu tions not only suffer front scrofulous com plaints, but they have far less =Aver to with stand the attacks of other diseases; conse quently Vast • numbers perish by disorders -which, although not scrofulom; in their nature, are still rendered fatal 1 ;v this taint in the system. Most of the consumption which de cintates the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination; and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people are scrofulous ; their persons are invaded by this lurking in fection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in vigorate it by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in AYER'S Compound EAract, of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for this every where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com bined from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destiuctive consequences. Hence it should be employed for the cure of not only Scrofula, but also those other affec tions which arise from it, such as Enurrtvn and SKIN Drsmsns, Sr. Ax.rito:srv's FIRM, Rosr., or EIINSIVELAS, PIMPLEq, rusTrlEs, I3r.o•rcnns, BLATNS and 1101 T ~ TUMORS, TETTER and Sxur Rill:UM, SCALD ILINOWOICN, RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC an d I%IF:um:JAL 1) 15- DII.OPSV, DI'S In:l'Si A, Dmurxrv, indeed, AIL COMPLAINTS MUSING FROM 'VITIA TED OIL IMPURE 131.000. The popular belief in "impurity of the blood" is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. ..A_ - Y" = La. ' S Ague Cure, roit Tilt spr.r.Dy CURE OF Intermittent Fever. or Fever and Ague, Remittent Fever, Chili Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious Ileadache. and Bilious Fevers, indeed Tor the - whole class of diseases originat ing in biliary derangement. caused by the Malaria of Miasmatic Countries. We are enabled here to offer the community a remedy which, while it cures the above complaints with certainty, is still l crfectly harmless in any quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in districts where these afflicting disorders prevail. This "CURE" expels the miasmatic poison of FEVER. AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is not Duly the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within the reach of every body ; and in bilious districts, where - Form. AND AGUE prevails, every body should have it and use it freely both for cure and. protec tion. A great superiority of this remedy over any other ever discovered for the speedy and certain cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu tion. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if they had never had the disease. Fever and Ague is not done the consequence of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disor ders arise from its irritation, .among which are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gont, Headache, Blind ness, Voothacke, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal i ritation, Painful Affection of the S:pleen, Eyster 2CS, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and _De rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when I originating in ;his cause, put on the intermittent type, or becomo periodical. Tins " Cunn ", expels the poison from the blood, and consequently cures them all alike. It is an invaluable pi otection to immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily residing in the malarious districts. If taken occa sionally or daily while exposed to the infection, that will be excreted from the system, and cannot accumulate hi sufficient quantity to ripen into dis ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec tion than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter mittents if they avail themselves of the protection this remedy affords. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
