THE SEA.
“And the Sea gave up the tleatl that mere in it?'—Rev
xx. 13.
O Sea, give up thy dead the loved, the lost,
In thy unfathomed depths are sleeping lone—
In fretted vaults, and caverns dark and deep,
Whore yolee of love and fond regret ne'er come.
The dead are naught to thee—thy vast domain
Is rich in treasures which the world doth prize ;
The orient pearl, to beauty dear, and geros •
Of priceless worth, ; and wealth untold, is thine.
Thou shalt give up thy dead—'twas so decreed
Ere the first ripple of thy waters broke
The sacred silence of Creation's morn.
Pair Morn! when jubilant the waves arose
Kissing, caressing their sweet sister, Earth—
And heaven rejoiced to see its mirrored face
ln thy pure bosom. Now, alas 1 thou art
Man's enemy—cruel, rapacious Sea.
Yet think not ever thus to hold thy prey!
Thy doom, foreseen, foretold by holy Seer,
Hastens its coming. Soon the Xing of kings
shall wrest the sceptre from thy nerveless hand—
And there shall be no Sea.
March 20,1861.
DO GOOD CHILDREN DIE EARLY.
A great many little books about good children
have been printed in our times. It is very natural
that children should like to read the history of
children, But there is one thing about many of
those books which perhaps makes young readers
somewhat sad. A large proportion of the publish
ed histories of very good children are the histories
of children who have died young. Some readers
perhaps begin to think that those who grow early
good will probably soon die. On that account they
rather dislike to read the biography of one that
wig early converted and eminently Christ-like.
They begin to think, ero they get half through
the little volume, that the model child, whose
words and adios it records, will soon grow sick
had die, and be laid in the dark cold grave.
Now the young reader loves life, and would
like to rust about above the ground rather than he
l.tid bentath it in early youth. There is no sin in
tech desires. God . who gave us life expects us to
love it, and is not displesed when we do. These
I , yes were given to us that we might look upon
the light, and all the beauties in earth and air and '
i-ea which the light reveals. The appetite of
hunger was put within us, and the earth command
ed to bring forth its fruit, in order that we might
catand enjoy our daily bread. The thinking mind
vas given to us that we might understand the
lit:cation and worship the Creator in the land of
the living. It is a great mistake to think that
careless people are the people for living, and that
good people have no business with anything but
to die.
Those who have been converted to Christ, for
given and renewed when young, are best fitted for
living long, and for enjoying life. But still you
nay, those very good boys and girls of whom we
read in books nearly all died young! And I can
tell you the reason. It is not safe to make a book
about any one as long as he is living. There are
many children to-day who trust in Christ, and
Nvalk in his holy ways, who live and enjoy life now,
and will live to old age, and be, like the palm
tree, fresh and flourishing then; but we don't
print about them as long as they are here to read
it. It would never do to publish to all the world
the graces of a child while he is still in the world.
In the first place, if be were truly good, it would
greatly grieve him to read his own praise, and in
the next place, the praise would spoil him, and
stronglytend to make him self-righteous and
vain-glorious.
You see then that we cannot, and ought not, to
print the history of a converted child, if he is alive,
and that we can write the life only of those who
have departed, and after they have departed.
That is the reason why most of the good children
of whom you have read in books have died in
childhood; but it is not the case that moat of the
children who give themselves to Christ early are
taken away early. The reverse is the truth.—
Most of them are preserved in life, and allowed
to grow to old age, and to be a salt in the earth.
Christ who redeems them has need of some to be
with himself, and he calls one here and one there
away to himself in their spring time; but the most
of them are needed here in the boy a long time.
Christ needs them in the world to be his witnesses,
to enjoy his love, and to do his work.
The service of the devil shortens life; but the
service of God lengthens it. Again, the service
of the devil makes life sad while it lasts, and the
service of God gladdens it. Many people's lives
are made bitter while they last, and cut off early
by their own wickedness. - For example what an
uncounted multitude of men and women spend a
wretched life and come to a violent death through
drunkenness and what an uncounted multitude
of little children are murdered slowly but surely
by the unkindness of drunken parents!
I observe that Jesus, when be was here among
men not only loved to get little healthy children
in his arms and bless them; but that he went
willingly with a grieving father to the house where
his sick child lay, and that by hie power he raised
her up and lengthened her days. Jesus when he
was here, lengthened many people's lives, but
shortened the life of none. And his service now
is like himself—it makes our life happier, and
makes it longer too. Ask those who are old Chris
tians now, and the most of them will tell you that
they gave themselves to Christ when they were
young; they will tell you farther, that their only
regret in the matter is, that they did not give
themselves to him earlier.
A ROTTEN PLANK
You have heard of the famous big ship built in
London called the Great Eastern. Your thousand
passengers they meant to carry; the people of four
or five of our small villages could be stowed in her
—she was built of the best material, by the best
engineers, and the best mechanics. But unfor
tunately they put one rotten plank in her—that
was Sabbath work.
After she was built, they had great difficulty
in launching her, they pushed her, hauled her,
and tugged at her for weeks together, with
all the men and machinery at their command.
Stir she did not. One, two, three, four, five
times they tried to launch the monster. A
good many mistakes were made, she was so much
larger than any ship ever built before; but the
worst mistake of all was a Sabbath launching at
last. The God of the Sabbath appointed it for a
day of sacred rest; and will be not frown on those
who abuse it to their own uses ?
Just as the launch was effected, its great con
structor, Mr, Brunel, died—died of overwork they
said. Ah I God knew his poor brain needed Sab
bath rest, if he did not know it. After the launch,
the great ship steamed off on its trial trip—the
eyes of all England were looking on her. Pens
wrote her praises, and lips pronounced her a suc
cess. But what was the first news they heard
from her on this trial trip? A terrible explosion
on board. That rotten plank, perhaps, had given
way. The poor ship was hurried into port. While
there was no urgent necessity for it, her captain
ordered her huge decks to be cleaned on the Sab
bath. The hands asked for the Christian privilege
of rest on the Lord's day. And what answer did
they get? Arrest and imprisonment for disobey
ing orders. A few months later we find the death
of that captain by accidental drowning.
And the end of all this is, that the poor Great
Eastern, upon which the builders themselves so
much relied, is likely to turn out a bad bargain
to all concerned, a wreck on shore. We call these
disasters, " accidents;" but depend upon it, there
is a Power over and above all that we can see,
whose laws, which he has made for our good, it is
perilous to trifle with. This Being is the Lord of
the Sabbath.
Pamily Religion,—AB the result of a revival in
New York, the Northern Independent' says:
In live families there are twenty-one children who
never before heard the voice of prayer at home, who
now hear it daily from a father's lips at their own
firesides."
Should we, as a general rule, reckon the bead of
a family as a sound convert who does not set up a
household altar to the Lord?
THE LAST WOB,DS BROX MACAULAY
With something of the same feeling with which
the "lords in waiting" must have laid away that
"gold ring and the lock of the hair of Mary"
found in the bosom of the dead King William,
do we lay down this closing volume of Macaulay's
magnificent history. And so these are the last
words we shall ever have from him—we said to
ourselves, in solemn, tearful grief. This" fifth vo
lume," so thin and slight, is the winding up of a
quarter of a centdry of literary glory. Nevermore
shall we open the pages of the Edinburgh Review,
as wo used to open them in our college days, keen
and hungry fur the" article by Macaulay." Never
more shall we sit spell-bound and gaze on the new
and gorgeous panoramas of history which his ma
gic pen caused to pass before us—on splendid
spectacles like the trial of ,Warren Hastings—on
stirring fights, like the battle of the Boyne and the
siege of Derry—on oratorical encounters, like the
conflicts of Walpole and the Pitts with their as
sailants—on portraitures of heroes, like the vivid
photographs of Hatnpden and Clive, of Frederick
of Prussia, and William, Prince of Orange. The
spell is broken. The right hand of the magician
has lost its cunning. The enchanter himself sleeps
in Westminster Abey. The music of this last
sentence dies upon our ear as we close this fifth
volume of a history which we would fain have had
prolonged until it reached its fiftieth or its five
hpudredth.
To us, Lord Macaulay, with, all his manifold
faults, is yet the prince of historical painters. Not
more certainly is Homer tire first of poets, not
more certainly is Napoleon the first of modern
captains, not more certainly is Sbakspeare first of
dramatists or Tennyson first of living minstrels,
than is Macaulay first of all masters of the histori
cal pencil. Other men have been superior to him
in special excellences. Others have been more
scrupulously fair and impartial. Others have
achieved wider and deeper researches. But no
other man has combined in himself such powers
of memory and such powers of description, such
exhaustless wealth of knowledge from the court to
the cottage, from the stately cedar to the hyssop
on the wall, such exquisite conception of the grand
and the beautiful, mingled with 'such love of the
heroic and such detestation of the base and the
infamous in human history. He is the father and
founder of a school in which he as yet stands alone
—with many imitators but no equals. It is not
too much to say that no other historian of modern
times could have produced five such volumes as
those whose last sentence now lives—like the echo
of Jenny Lind's matchless strains—upon our en
chanted, ear.
Lord Macaulay's closing volume—just repub
lished by the Harpers—is painfully brief, but not
one whit behind its predecessors in richness of, re
search or picturesqueness of description. The sa
lient points in this volume are the Partition trea
ty, Peter the Great's visit to London, the Darien
expedition, the career of Montague, and the death
of King illiam. It contains the seeds of half-a
dozen controversies. Our good Quaker friends,
who have never forgiven Macaulay for his SMCar
inus of William Penn's fair fame, will doubtless
resent his version of the unhappy affair of Spencer
Cowper. Some of the Scotch will not relish the
mortifyina. ° revival of the Darien delusion. Nor
will Irish Catholics read with much complacency
the new and exalted tributes which Macaulay
brings to the memory of the conqueror of their
ancestors, the hero of the Boyne.
It was a most happy Providence that the great
historian was permitted to live just long enaugh
to complete the career of his favorite hero. It
was fitting that the last words which fell from his
pen should have been the touching words which
describe the dying bed of the warrior-prince who
breathed away his life'atuid the prayers of Christ's
ministers and with a locket of his faithful Mary
next to his heart. The Dutch should not fail to
rear monuments' to Motley and to Macaulay in the
public squares of Amsterdam, or under the stately
beeches in the Royal Park of tbe Hague. For
Motley is the first historian who has done full jus
tice to William of Nassau. And Macaulay is cer
tainly the first who has ever pretended to do justice
to William of Orange. Hume and Goldsmith
portray William as but a coarse and common man,
sullen in the palace and sour in his creed, half a
bigot and half a usurper. But on Macaulay's
pages we behold a new and striking character to
challenge our admiration for a bravery that never
flinched in the hottest of the battle, for an intel
lectual strength which made his brain the motive
power of Protestant Europe, for a religious con
stancy which once nobly said, "I cannot counte
nance an attack on my own religion; I cannot do
it, and I will not, no! not for the crown of Eng
land or the empire of the world." Among the
long line of wooden beads which for two centuries
wore the British crown, two only stand forth con
spicuous for genius. One of them was Shak
speare's Elizabeth. The other is Macaulay's Wil
liam. What a contrast there is between the Popish
James and the Protestant Prince of Orange ! How
different the man who was "bred among Dutch
Presbyterians" from the man whose conscience
was poisoned by Jesuitical confessors, whose bi
goted malice made him dishoner his own offspring,
whose craven treachery made him cringe to his
enemies in order to punish his friends, and who
called around him a reckless crew of renegade
priests and wretched apostates, while the bodies
of Britain's noblest sons were wasting in a prison,
or rotting on a gibbet.
It is sad to think that the hand which drew
these masterly historical portraits, lies motionless
in the grave. As we close this posthumous vo
lume now lying before us, our thoughts wander
away to old Westminster Abbey. We find our
selves in the "Poet's Corner." The dust of Chau
cer, the " daystarre" of English poetry, lies at
our feet. Hard by him—in that consecrated
mold whose every inch is fattened with genius—
sleeps the author of the Fairy Queen. ,Tot far
off is that grave which bears for its simple inscrip
tion "0 rare Ben Jenson." The statue of Ad
dison, by the head of Westmacott, stands over
looking the pavement beneath which slumber the
ashes of Campbell and glorious John Dryden.
Statesmen are there as well as men of letters.
Within a few yards lie Wilberforce, and Buxton,
and Zachary Macaulay, the father of our historian
—all friends of freedom, whose memory Africa
shall yet embalm. Lord Chatham's eagle eye
looks down from marble pedestal on the slate
, colored slabs which cover the bones of William
' Pitt and his great rival Charles James Fox. In
the midst of these mighty men of renown, these
whom he himself delighted to honor, LORD MA
CAULAY now sleeps the sleep that knows no
waking till the resurrection-morn.
British Messenger.
In his own fine language, it may be truthfully
said that "among the eminent men whose bones
lie near him, scarcely one has left a more stain
less, and none a more splendid name."
The following confession of Lord Chesterfield,
the most admired and envied man of his age, is
often quoted, but its truthfulness, and the lessons
it teaches the worldly, give it a perpetual fresh
ness:
"I have been the silly rounds of business and
pleasure, and have done with them all. I have
enjoyed all the pleasures in the world, and conse
quently know their futility, and I do not regret
their loss. I appraise them at their true value,
which is, in truth, very low; whereas they who
have not experienced always overrate them. They
only see their gay outside, and are dazzled with
their glare; but I have been behind the scenes.
I have seen all the coarse pulleys and dirty ropes
which exhibit and move the gaudy machines; and
I have seen and smelt the tallow candles which
illuminate the whole decoration, to the astonish
ment and adoration of the ignorant audience.
When I reflect back upon what I have seen, what
I have heard, and what I have done, I can hardly
persuade myself that all that frivolous. hurry, and
bustle,'and pleasure of the world, bad any reality;
but I look back upon all that has , passed as one,
of those romantic dreams which opium commonly

A FLYING TRIP TO WASHINGTON.
Friday, April 19th, 1961!
In these days, a
short space of time. The pulse of the nation is

in crisis, which shall result in either death or re
novated strength. This moment returned from
Washington, the incidents of the day I spent there
remain so forcibly in my mind, that I feel justified
them as a contribution to your daily
i n
chronicles. repeating
Ihadnot
seen Washington since 1856, and was
therefore an entire stranger to the later improve
ments. In the imposing extent and superb natural
elevation of the Capitol, one forgets its minor ar
chitectural incongruities: the general effect is very
grand. But, as from Pennsylvania Avenue, I saw
the double colonnade of the new dome still await
ing its crowning hemisphere, only the central mast
and skeleton stairway rising nakedly against the
sky, and then turned to the Washington. Monu
ment, with the huge crane hanging over its un
finished pile, these two objects struck me as fit
respresentations of the American Republic. That,
also, is unfinished. The basements are laid broadly
and splendidly: massive, proud and majestic, the
edifice towers aloft; but the crown is still wanting.
External foes—storms from without—have beaten
upon it, but the strength of its foundations is yet
to be tested by exploding forces from within.
Washington's true monument is his Republic,
and, until the destructive doctrine of the Right of
Secession is buried too deep to be ever, unearthed
again, that monument will be incomplete.
These were symbols either of sadness or hope,
according to one's temperament. For me, thank
God and the people! there was no depression in
the sight. Everywhere around me the flag of the
Union was 'waving; troops were patrolling the
streets,. and yonder the watchful Marshal Lamon
was galloping, on the second horse he had tired
out since morning. Everybody seemed to be wide
awake, alert and active.
On reaching Willard's Hotel, the scene changed.
The passages' wereso crammed that I had some
difficulty in reaching the office. To my surprise,
half the faces were Southern—especially Virginian
—and the conversation was carried on in whispers.
Presently I was hailed by several Northern friends,
and heard their loud, out-spoken expressions of
attachment to the Union. The whisperers near
us became silent, and listened attentively. I was
earnestly questioned as to whether the delay of
the mails was occasioned by rails being torn up or
bridges destroyed. Every one seemed to suspect.
that a treasonable demonstration had taken place
in or near Baltimore. The most exciting rumors
were afloat. Harper's Ferry was taken—Virginia
had secretly seceded—Wise was marching on
Washington—always winding up with the impa
tient question: " Why don't the troops come on?"
It is impossible to escape the infection of such an
excitement, and I was obliged to look more than
once at the sunny street and the budding trees to
convince myself that shells were not even whiz
zing across -from the Virginia shore.
Amid all this confusion, the quiet figures, with
sallow faces and dark moustaches, glided about,
whispering in corners, or steadfastly looking at
placards, with one ear pricked toward a group of
Northern talkers. I found them on my track half
a dozen times, when I least suspected it. The fact
is, Washington is full of Virginia spies. Why is
not martial law proclaimed, and this mischief
stopped?
As I walked up to the Department: of'State, re
flecting on the crisis at hand—the most momen
tous with which any nation was ever visited—l
felt almost ashamed to ask for a foreign passport.
Slight as my own services might be, in any , emer
gency, it.is not a time when an American citizen
should leave his country. The suddenness with
which the final issue has been brought upon us,
unfortunately for myself, gives me no opportunity
to change my plans; but I reserve the resolve -to
come back with the first steamer that brings dis
astrous tidings. 'No true American can doubt the
final result, because there is a God in heaven.
In the afternoon, I had the honor of a short in
terview with the President. I had never seen
Mr. Lincoln, and had not the right to expect—
scarcely the right to request—admittance to him
at such an inportant time; but I wished, before
leaving home, for no matter how short a period,
the satisfaction of saying to him, as I did: " Presi
dent Lincoln, let me thank you for enabling me
still 'to hold up my head as, an American ' and to
speak of my country without blushing." I need
not describe the President's personal appearance,
for nearly everybody has seen him. Honesty,
firmness, and sound common sense, were the cha
racteristics with which, personally, he impressed
me. I was very glad to notice the tough, enduring
vitality of his temperament—he needs it all. He
does not appear to be worn or ill, as I have heard,
but on the contrary, very fresh and vigorous. His
demeanor was thoroughly calm and collected, and
he spoke °fie present crisis with that solemn,
earnest composure, which is the sign of a soul not
easily perturbed. I mine away from his presence,
cheered and encouraged.
Coming down from the White House to the
Treasury Building, past hedges of the pyrus ja
ponica, in scarlet blossom, I met Gen. Scott, erect
and firm as ever, but 'walking slowly, with his
head slightly bent, and apparently absorbed in
thought. I scanned him closely, knowing what
a weight of responsibility rests on his shoulders—
what chapters of unwritten history may take their
coloring from the schemes of that "good, gray
head." His air was absorbed, as I have said, but
calmly resolute and self-reliant. Yet the most
startling rumor* purporting to emanate from the
War Department,. w,exe flying to and_ fro through
the air. •
At. Willard'.s the excitement , was greater than
ever, and
,1 presently felt the same rush of blood,
as soldiers experience in, "cannon4ever." Let
me- give. you a few of, the rumors, to show- how fe
verish,and wild is the general feeling:
1. Harper's Ferry is taken. ,
2. The war vessels at Gosport are seized.
3. Wise may,attack Washington to-night.
4. John M. Botts has been hung by the mob.
5. The bridges have been destroyed between
Baltimore and Philadelphia.
6. All trains will be stopped, and all strangers
impressed for the'defence of the city.
Exhausted, at last, by the repetition and denial
of these reports—because even when you don't
believe, you are 'magnetically excited by the agi
tation of your informant, is took a carnage, and
drove to the Capitol, in coulpiany with a poet. I
saw its empty halls, its marble . staircases, its imi
tation mosaic pavements (eneauAtie tiles,) its bronze
doors and plaster ornaments, at4-Telt strengthened
in my begst that the Amerieaq People would never
allow its courts to be protaned by the presence of
traitors. Stepping out of the Rotunda, upon the east
ern front, the green square and leafing trees ap

yond all, sat the. marble Washington, lifting his
right hand toward Heaven. Yes, lift thy hand,

From Capitol Hill we overlooked the beautiful
city, the Potomac shining in the soft afternoon
light, and the far purple slope of the Virginia
shore. It was a grand, peaceful picture, tinted
with warm hues and breathed upon by a balmy
air. Yet in a few days its streets might be dyed
with carnage, and the smoke of its ruin blot the
sky. Was ever wickedness like to that -which

If the nation is to be preserved—if the Republic
under which we have prospered for eighty-five
years is not to be a wretched failure at last—we
must stand ready to defend it with treasure and
blood, as in '76. There is no longer any political
parties: there are simply Unionists and Anar

party lines, and united us all as loyal children of

Before I left Washington, Messrs. Carlile and
Dent, of the Virginia Convention, arrived from
Richmond, forced away, it was surmised, by con
siderations of personal safety. No one doubted any
longer that the ordinance of Secession had been
secretly passed; and' thus the party, which, under

I left Washington at 6 o'clock last night.
Crowds of men, women, and children were ga

feverish anxiety for the troops. They had not yet
come: but some fifteen miles away we passed the
train containing. them. It was, greeted with cheers
and the waving ,otliats from our train, and I its

This morning; between Baltimore and Wilming

PHOTOGRAPHY
Mr. Whipple, of Boston, was the first to da
guerreotype the moon successfully. This lumi
nary not being a quiet sitter, it becomes neces
sary to resort to mechanical devices, to fotlow up
its motions as a sportsman does in shooting upon
the wing. An equatorial telescope is used for the
camera tube, and its clock work furnishes the re
quisite motion of fifteen. degrees to the hour. An
impression being taken, it may be enlarged to any
required size by well-known methods. By taking
the moon's picture a little while before, and again
a little while after full moon, and combining these
two views in a sterenscope, we are enabled see
a little ways around it, and the impression thus
given of its sphericity is irresistible. The sun's
likeness is more easily secured, such is the power
of the flood of light which it pours into the ca
mera, that its image is impressed in the smallest
appreciable fraction of a second of time. The
feat has been performed in the 1-27,000 th part
of a second. Eves this, however, is slow work
compared with the feat of Mr. Talbot performed
at the Royal Institution of Great Britain. A
toothed wheel was caused to rotate with the ut
most velocity that could be communicated, to it
by wheels and cogs.„ While thus rotating, it was
illuminated by an electrical spark, and at the
same moment photographed. The result was a
perfect picture of the wheel with every tooth and
spoke as distinctly 'represented as if the wheel
had been at rest. The duration of the light of
the electric spark is, proven to be less than a mil
lionth part of a sepond; consequently the pic
ture was impressed in that inconceivably short in
terval!
THE Sun's DaiVirournal, kept by himself, at
the suggestion of tp . #4 Royal Institution is an in

cording the number, magnitude, and motions of
solar spots, and the progress of eclipses. It con
sists of series of photographic views taken daily,
and, at times, hourly, or even oftener when eclipses
occur. By cotnbiaing,, in the stereoscope, two
views, which have been taken at intervals, of se
veral days, an idea of sphericity is obtained; though
by no means so satisfactorily as in the case of the
moon. The belt of Jupiter and rings of Saturn
have also been successively photographed, as well
as some of the fixed stars; and the nest meteoric
shower will be, if the present plans of science be
carried out.
ABANDONING THE CIGAR.

TO PUNISH TRAITORS.
We give below,the substance of a bill that has
unanimously passed the Legislature of our State
for the punishment of traitors. We earnestly
hope that it may be carried out in allits provi
sions and penalities to the very letter. We have
about us at everyditep many who are indiscreetly,
and some perhaps ~unintentionally, by their con
versation in public places, giving countenance and
support to treason. We hope that they and
others more guilty will take heed to their ways.
The bill provides that if any two or more per
sona shall conspire to solicit, or shall solicit,
within this State to enlist soldiers, marines, or
others, for any pretended Government, other than
that of this State, or the United States, which
has been, or may hereafter be, set up, every
.per
son so offending shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
and on conviction shall be sentenced to a fine not
exceeding $lO,OOO, and to undergo solitary con
finement, for a period of not more than ten years,
and any who shall actually enlist to serve such
Government in a military capacity, shall be ad
judged and sentenced to pay a fine of $5,000, and
undergo separat'e and solitary confinement for a
period not greater than five years. And any per
son contracting to supply such Government with
arms, or munitions of war, shall be adjudged and
sentenced to pay a fine not exceeding $lO,OOO, and
undergo confinement of, not more than ten years'
solitary confinement.
Any person engaged to build, alter, or repair
any vessel for war or privateering purposes for
such governmest, shall be fined not more than
$5,000, and be,confined for not more than five
years in solitary confinement. The contractors
for such construction, alteration or repairs, are to
be heavily fined and imprisoned. All who con
spire in secret organization, to aid, abet, or fur
nish intelligence to, such pretended government,
are to be summarily and severely dealt with. So
also those who print, publish, and edit any news
paper, pamphlet, or other document, calculated, to
produce disorder in, disaffection or disloyalty to,
the State or National government, or to stir up
sedition or rebellion against either, within the
limits of this state r are to be severely punished.

WATCH THE HEALTH OF YOIIII.
DRER.
Worms are a prolific source of rdekness in children.
They are seldom free from them, and by their irritation
all other diseases are aggravated. Convulsions, as welt
as St. Vitus' Dance, have been superinduced by them,
and death has resulted in extreme cases- Whenever the
symptoms are observed, such as disturbed sleep, grinding
of the teeth, itching of the nose, weakness of the bowels,
slow fever, variable appetite and fetid breath, •
JAYNE'S TONIC VERMTFUGE
should be resorted to without delay. It is entirely
harmless, is readily taken , by children, effectually de
stroys worms, and by its tonic action invigorates the
whole system. It is prepared only by Da. D. JANNE dr.
Sou, 242 Chestnut St., Philadelphia.

JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT
• been for thirty years Me Standard Remedy.
will be admitted that no better evidence of the great
arative powers of this EXPECTORANT can be ; offered
Man the grateful testimony of those who have been re
stored to health by its use, and the wide-spread popu
larity which, for so long a period, it has maintained in
the face of all competition,
and which has created - a con
stantly increased' demand for it in all parts of the world.
As far as possible, this evidence is . laid before the public
from time to : time, until the most
,skeptical, will ac
knowledge that for all pulmonary complaints, it is
truly an invaluable remedy. .
RECENT COUGHS AND COLDS, PLEURITIC .
PAINS, &c., are quickly and effectually cured by its dia
phoretic, soothing and expectorant power.
. .
ASTHMA it always cures. It overcomes the spasmo
dic contraction of the air vessels, and by producing free
expectoration, at once removes all difficulty of breathing.
BRONCHITIS readily yields to the Expectorant. It
subdues the inflammo.tion which extends through the
wind tubes, produces free expectoration, and suppresses
at once the cough and pain.
CONSUIVIPTION.—For this insidious and fatal disease,
no- renriedy.on earth has ever been found so effectual.
It subdues the intlammation,—relieves the cough and
pain,—removes the difficulty of breathing and produces
an easy expectoration, whereby all irritating and-ob
structing matters are removed Vont the lungs.
WHOOPING COUGH is promptly relieved by this E
xpectorant. It shortens the duration of ihe disease one
half, and greatly mitigates the suffering of the patient.
In all PULMONARY COMPLAINTS, in CROUP,
PLEURISY, tic., it will be found to be prompt, safe,
pleasant and, reliable, and may, be especially commended
to. 14IFISTEBS, TEACHERS and SINGERS, for the relief of
Hoarseness, and for strengthening the organs! of the
voice.

she , was restored to a good degree of health."
REV. SAMUEL S. DAV, Missionary of the Baptist
Board, at Nellore, India, writes:—
By the use of your EXPECTORANT my Cougb and ,
Sore Throat are now well. I find, occasionally, an un

exposed to great heat. It fell with the walls of that
part of the building into- the cellar, and remained im
bedded in the ruins for more than thirty hours.
The Safe was opened this morning in the presence of
