WASHJXGTOV gossip hath it thatThurlow Weed
said that Secretary Stanton ought long ago to have
sant Mrs. Lincoln away from Washington which re
mark coming to the ears of the president's wife, she
treated 1 hurlow very cavalierly on a late call at the
V\ hite House, refusing to allow him to sit down, and
turning him out of the house. Poor Thurlow.
A coRRESroxnEN'T of the Now York Herald gives
this method for ridding trees of worms, which is cer
tflinly very easily tried, and will be valuable if effect
ual:—"Bore a hole in the trunk of each tree extend
ing to the center or heart of the tree, aud then fill up
the hole with pulverized sulphur and plug it up tight.-
Tn a short time the sulphur will spread through all
the branches, and the worms will soon disappcur."
IKCCNIHARV Oorrox.—The Lowell Courier states
that in one of the cotton mills of that city, was found
a day or two ago, in opening some cotton bales, a lit
tle cone shaped article, which was found in the pick
er room, containing eight or ten percussion caps.
On trying them several exploded, and it is supposed
that all are good. Had these caps gone into the
machinery with the cotton, it is more than probable
thata conflagration would have been the consequence.
"A I.EETLE TECH." —"Somemonths since," writes
a correspondent from Rondont on the Hudson,
'"our minister was impressing upon his hearers the
duty (if a gyeater regard for the services of the day of
Thanksgiving, set apart by the Governor, and was
informing them that on that day he would preach a
sermon at that place, and he wished them all to at
tend, to render, in a propper manner, acknowledge
ments for the many benefits of the past year —for a
season of health and bountiful harvests, ect." Here
n little wiry man, in a blue coat with metal buttons,
knd a very elevated collar, popped up from his seat
and squeaked out'; "Dominie, I wish you'd jest give
the tater rot a leetle tech in that sarmon o youru.—
It's been dreadful bad with ur!"
"WANTED —Expert Needle Womeu to make Ba
bies liodies."
"Well, that beats all," exclaimed Mrs. Partington,
throwing down the newspaper in which, during the
last fifteen minutes, she had been spelling out the
advertisements and peering indignantly over her
spectacles across the breakfast-table at Ike, who was
busily excavating a fourth egg-shell. "Did any body
ever hear the likes? I always said it was as good as
tellin' Natur, she didn'i know how to do her own
work when they instructed them steam-rams and don
key-engines. But this impostcrous idea of making
slop-work babies is enough to make the poor thing
abet up shopftltogether !• Mark my words, Ike, them
sewin'-machines will be pressed into this new-fangled
business before long ; and then all the emigration'
in the worid won't be able to keep down the surplice
poppy lation."
GEM. GRANT AS A CHECKER-TEA YER, —The Water
town (N. Y.) Daily Reformer relates an anecdote of
Gen. Grant: "YV hen the general was a young lieuten
ant he was stationed for some time at Sackett's Har
bor, and in those days paid frequent visits to our
village. He was a famous Checker player, and was
wont to spend many an hour at the oid American
hotel in this absorbing game. But there was one of
our citizens!whose name we are forbidden to men
tion) who could beat the lieutenant at bis favorite
game. But Grunt would never give up. and in
sisted on his competitor playing with him till he came
out ahead, which he would, at last, always do. To
secure this he sometimes kept his friend up
nearly all night, and would stavin town three days,
studying his long-headed Troves, and forcing his op
ponent to play until he beat him in the wind. If
the man declined playing when he was ahead, the
lieutenant was offended, and thought him ungentle
manly in the extreme. Grant is now placing check
ers in the samestyle with Lee on the Virginia board."
WINTER IN STITZBEROKX.— The single night of this
dreadful country begins about the 30th of October :
the sun then sets, aud never appears till about the
10th of February. A glimmering indeed continue*
some weeks, after the setting of the sun. then suceeed
c>ouds and thick darkness, broken by the light of the
moon, which is as luminous as in England, and du
ring this longnight shines with unfading luster. The
cold strengthens with the new year, and the sun is
ushe.red in with an unusual severity 'of frost. Bv the
middle of March, the cheerful light grows strong.— |
Arcticfoxes leave their holes, and the sea fowl resort j
in great numbers to their breeding places. The sun
sets no more after the 14th of Mav: the distinction of
(lay and night is then lost. In the height of summer
the sun is hot enough to melt tar on the decks of
ships, but from August its power declines—it sets
fast. After the middle of September, day is hardly
distinguishable, and bv the end of October, takes a
long farewell to this country : the earth becomes fro
zen,, and winter reigns.
VITALITY OF SEEDS —Farmers are often advised
through agricultural papers to gather matured weeds
and put them in their compost heaps. Now, I very
much doubt the propriety of thi* advice. Al
though the decomposed weeds' stalks may he of
some vitality, I am very certain the seeds do not
lose theirs. When seeds will stand cold aud heat
for years, or pass fhrough the stomach of an animal
without being ir? the least impaired, I very much
doubt the decomposing process of matter with which
they are connected, destroying them. Years ago.
there stood a small thick hemlock forest in a certain■
locality in Ashtabula County, through which a win
ding wagon road, from necessity, was made, and
farmers often drew loads ofhay through this piece of
wood. When the public roads were property laid out
and fitted for use, the wood road was entirely aban
doned; twenty years later the forest was cut down,
and as soon as the sun's rays struck the earth here,
there came up a beautiful bed of timothy, the whole
length and breadth of the old road. I believe peo
ple acquainted with the circumstances, generally be
lieved that the hay seed scattered there twenty years
before, retained its vitality, and when the sun and
fain fell upon it. it germinated and grew. During
the early part ofsuimner, while weeds were in bloom,
I dag a large pond-hole in mv pasture, some three
feet deep, soon after it ufas finished there came a
slight shower and a warm sun; a week or so after
this, the bed of the hollow was covered with small
weeds. It was impossible forthe seed to have blown
there at that season of the year, and the only conclu
sion I could come to, was that the seeds had remain
ed for centuries in the earth without losing their vitali
ty. I think it more advisable to gather matured weeds
and burn them, rather than to put them into the com
post Farmer.

When Will the War End?
A deep impression prevails at the North and at
theSoutli that thepreseut summer is to see the
close of the war. 1 lie Southern papers have even
put the issue upon the campaign in Virginia, aud
have said whichever wins, the war is at an end.
We do not take this view of the case, though we
fervently wish and pray that the impending strug
gle may he the overthrow of the milhtary power of
the rebellion, and the establishment of peace and
good government iu the whole land. But we must
Lear in mind that the resources of the rebellion
have proved fur greater than was expected at the
beginning, and that with thedesperation of failure,
the rebels light with fiercer valor and more endu
rance than ever. If we defeat and scatter their
armies now; if we take Richmond and Atlanta,
they have still vast regions in which they mav con
centrate their forces again,and renew the fight un
til ptterly exhausted. We inust be prepared to hold
on. and hold fast, and persevere till the Govern
ment is restored to the whole couutry.
It is probable that the unity of sentiment is
greater at this moment at the North, than it has
ever been since the war begun. The more the war
has cost, in blood anu money, the more thoroughly
determined is the heart of the American people.—
The magnitude of the work reveals the value of
the blessing we seek. If it costs so much to pre
serve the life of the nation, the nation ought to be
verv precious in our eyes. And it ought to be
doubly dear to us now that we have eudured so
rnueh to save it.
But we are among those who believe that the
war ought to be, and might be brought to a close
this summer, and that too by the complete triumph
of the Uuiou cause. To this end the energies of
the Gcvernment ought to be directed, and the en
tire resources of the country brought to bear upon
the extinguishment of the rebellion. Such a host
of men arc interested in prolonging the war, that
we shall have to encounter ail the obstacles they can
throw in the way. They want, it to go on, that
they may make money out of it. But the gTeat
bulk of the American people are willing to make
any sacrifices, and to resume operations next year,
and the year after, and again, rather than to suffer
the country to be rent in twain by the hand of re
bellion. They want the war to be prosecuted vig
orously, and ended but they do not want
it ended on any other basis th:m that of Union,

COMPOUND EXTRACT
OF BUCHU.
Compound Pluid Extract Buchu, a positive and Spe
cific remedy for disease* of the Bladder, Kidneys, Gravel
and Dropsical Swellings.

HOSTETTER'S
Celebrated
STOMACH BITTERS.
A pure and powerful Tonie, corrective and alternative of
wonderful efficacy in disease Of the
StOMACIIH LIVER AND BOWELS.
Curas Dyspepsia. I.ivcr comple.int. Headache, GcDcral de
hilily, Nervousness. Depression ofSpirit*, Constipation
Colic, Intermittent Fever*. Cramps and Spasms, and all
Complaint* of either Sex. arising fiott Bodily Weakness
whether inherent in the system of produced by special
causes.
Nothing that is not wholesome, genial and restorative
in its nature enters into the composition of Hosteller*
Stomach Bitters This popular preparation contains no
mineral of any kind, no deadly botanical element: no
fiery excitant : but it is a combination of the extracts of
rare balsam 1 .- herbs and plants with the purest and mild ■
est of all diffusive stimulants
It is well to be forearmed against disease, and so far as
human system can be protected by human moans against
maladies engendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, im
pure water and other external eunses, Ilostetter's Bitters
may be relied on as a safeguard.
In district J infested with Freer and Agut, it has been
found infallible as a preventive and irresistabro as a rem
edy. and thousands who resort to it under apprehension
j of an attack, escape the scourges and thousands who neg
lect to avail themselves of it* protective qualities in ad
vance, arc cured by a very brief course of this marvelous
medicine Fever and Ague patients, after being plied
with quinine for months in vain, until fairly saturated
with that dangerous alkaloid, and out (infrequently re
stored to health within a few days by the use of Hostel
ler's Bitters.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the appe
tite restored by this agreeable Tonic, and hence it works
wonders in cases of Dispt-psia and in lest confirmed forms
indigestion. Acting as a gentle and painless aperients,
as well ax upon the liver, it also invariably relieve* th
Constipation superinduced by irregular action of the di.
gestive and secretive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Servo** Attack*, Lov~
iw nf Spirit*. and Fit of Languor, find prompt and per
manent relief from the Bitters. The testimony ou this
point is most conclusive, and from both sexes.
The agony of Billiou* Colic is immediately assuaged by
a single dose of the stimulant, and by occasionally resort
ing to it. the return of the coraptaint may be prevented.
As a general Tunic. llostetter's Bitter* produce effect*
which must he experienced or witnessed before they can
be fully appreciated In ease* of Coftitwtionai HVni
ae, Prcmatxr* Decay and Debility and Dccrcptitude
arising from Old Age. it exercises on electric influence.
In the convalescent stages of all diseases it operates as a
invigorant. When the powers of nature are relaxed, it
operates to re-enforce and re-establish them.
lAst. but not least, it is The Only Safe Stimulant, being
manufactured from sound and innoxious materials, and en
tirely free from tho acid elements present more or less in
in all the ordinary tonics and stomachics of tbe day.
No family medicine has been no universally, and it may
be truly addod. dccerredly popular with the intelligent
portion of the community, as Ilostetter"* Bitters.
