The Southerners turned Upon him. One of them defended the Canadian, when a bowie knife and revolver were drawn by the Confederates; others came to the rescue of the Canadian. and the police appeared before any blow was struck.

As he sits at the table, his own guests are too Idle or ton unkind to make him a sharer in their mirth. They grudge the trouble of that raised voice which alone could make him one of them ; and when he speaks, it Is only to be put aside as Ignorant or despised, as old-fashioned and obsolete: Oh, little do younger. persons know their power of giving pain or pleasure !

Dr. J. Edmonds, a prominent London pky• 'lrian, writes as follows to the London .7' ones I enclose a simple, safe and accessible prescrip tion for the whole range of acid corrosive poi sons, which, If promptly need, will almost Inva riably save life. Mix two ounces of powdered chalk or magnesia, or one. ounce of washing soda, with a pint of milk, and swallow it at one draught; thee tickle the back of the throat with a feather or finger so .ais to produce vomiting. Afterward drink freely ef milk sad water, and repeat the vomiting so as to thoroughly wash out fhe strmach. Any quantity ot chalk or mag nesia may be taken with safety, but soda in largo quantities Is Injurious. I may add, that the nar- scales are excepted. Milk is an antidote for al most all the poisons, and especially if followed by vomiting.
