Cheopsus, an eminent Eg)ptian ph % scian. lie had long seen and felt the want of some remedy which would strike at the root of dis ease, and so prevent much of the suffering which the human family was then compelled to endure. The great questior was presented 'to his mind every day in vivid colors as ti,e'moved a mong the sick and dying, andobserved the in efficiency of nearly all the remedies then in use. Thus he was lead to think and experi ment; and after ten years of study and labor, h presented to his fellow mats the wonderful Zingati Bitters. The elf ct of this preparation in the prevention and cure of disease, was so marvellous and astonishing, that the most flattering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon him who di-cotered it. his name was placed spoil the Kull of N , Aties, and a gold medal wits the following inscription—Dr. S. Cheopstis, the Public Benefactor—was pre sented to him by the Viceroy. The preparation has been used In several epidemics of cholera. both as a preventive and curative inra,ure, and with such great success that it has been introduced into nearly all the general hospitals of the old world. The old saying that' ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, applies with mar vellous force to cholera, and therefore any remedy that will protect us against this terri ble di,ease should be freely and persistently used. All patliologisti now agree that the cholera poison acts on the sptem through the blood, mud that any combination which acts on the excretory rot gams, and keeps them in work ing order, must prevent a Bi/trident accumu lation of the rmison to exert its terrible effects on the organism. This is true not. only of choters, but tit neatly ail other mnladieS, espe tiely the different forms pf fevers. The Zingari Bitters is just such a remedy as the above conditions require. It acts on the organs of excretion and scertdlon, keeping lip a perfect balance between Them. This Bitters is compoled entirely of roots and herbs, se nicely concocted that every organ is acted upon and put in tone. „Its taste is pleasant and itsfrects prompt and lasting.

The Gardener's Monthly states that a great revolution has occurred In the se lection of fruit trees for planting. Bush ey plants are now most in favor, as the shade made by the lateral branches is deemed favorable to the growth and health of the tree: The ground should be rich and deeply worked for a consid erable distance from the rootA, for the purpose of allowing the laterals it chanc_o to extend themselves with ease and free dom. Some people, in planting an apple tree, dig, a hole into clayey soil just large enough to receive the root by pressing it down, and fill in, and that is all. The tree, if it lives at all, is a poor, sickly thing, and the planter wondors what the matter is that his ttees do riot thrive.— Bad management in planting is respon sible for the failure, and nothing else. um/NG rani. TREE4.I. F. K. Phoenix, Bloomington, 111., writes the Horticulturist as follows: "A . neighbor amateur has this year grown about a bushel of most delicious Imperial Gage Plums on one tree, passed to him some three years since by,a brother, who said, 'No use to try to grow plums!' After it was planted out one year the family woodpile was corded up under and about it, and after the fruit had ?et, and so long as any fear of eureulio was enter tained, a plentiful supply of air slacked lime dust was scattered over the top every week, or twice a week. Last year it had a peck, and this year a bushel or so—and here you have the whole story," The writer says he is a profound believ er in the efficacy of a simil course of treatment, r 45 far as dusting with lime, &c:, not merely for eureulio, but for-the whole herd of insects, mildew and fungi generally, ItECIPF FOR Cl:lmm NEAT. To one gallon of water, take lbs. of salt, lb. of sugar, oz. of saltpetre, oz. of potash. ; - In this ratio the pickle to be increased to any quanity desired. Let the4e be boiled togethor,.until all the dirt from the sugar rises to the top and is skimmed off. Then throw it into a tub to cool, and when cold pour it over your beef or pork, to remain the usual time; say four or five weeks. The meat must be well covered with pickle, and should not be . put down for at least two days after kill ing, during which time it should be slightly sprinkled with powdered salt petre, which removes all the surface blood, le., leaving the meat fresh and clean. Some" omit boiling the pickle, and find il;to answer well, thOugh the operation of boiling purifies the pickle by throwing off the dirt always to 'be found hi salt and sugar. If thls recipe is pro Orly tried it will never be abandoned. There is none that surpasses it, If so good. TO PICKLE RED CARBILOS, Take a firm, fresh cabbage, remove the whole of the outer leaves, keeping the ball entire. Cut it into four quarters, and, subsequently into strips, and place them on a hair sieve or a clean, dry cloth, and sprinkle with salt. Let them remain for three . days to allow the brine to drain off. After they are thoroughly drained, put them into a clean jar. ifake asrouch vinegar as will cover them, and let it simmer over a slow fire, with whole, black pepper, coarse brown ginger, and.a little pimento. When tha vinegar is sufficiently flavored let it cool, and pour it over the cabbage in the jar, which must be stopped dOwu for use and kept for three months. CNN BEAT ?

It is the result of every day's eXperi enee that steady attention to matters of detail lies at the root of human progress, and that diligence, abovoall, is the moth. er of good luck. Accuracy is also of much importance, and an invariable mark of good training in a man—accuracy in ob servation, aeMlnwy ,in speech, accuracy -in the transaction of affairs. What is done in business must be well done • for it Is better to accomplish perfectly a small amount of wort: than to half-do ten times as much. A wise man used tosay, "stay a little that we may wake an end the sooner.", Too little attention, how ever, is paid to this highly important quality of accuracy. As a man versed id practical science lately observed, "it is astonishing how few people I have tout in the course of my experience who can define a fact accurately." Yet in busi ness affairs, it is the manner even in which stash matters' are transacted that Often tarn men for or against you. With virtue, capacity and good conduct in other respects, the person who is habit ually inaccurate in other respects cannot, be trusted ; his work, has to be done over main ; and he thus causes undies annoy ance:, vexation and trouble. rnorrt .VILD LOSS. A Western candidate for Congress, who had a large and well stocked farm; was annoyed at the almost nightly disap4 pea ante from his premises of a number of hogs. A vigilant ' watch enabled him to detect the thief, who proved to be it neighbor, and a warm political friend of the caudidate—one, in fact, upon' whose usadsitance he greatly relied in the coming cauVASS. He disliked to lose his support, and be disliked more the idea of losing his Mgs; so he made up his mind to be frank with the thief, and try to save in more senses then oile his bacon. Ile Went at once to his :neighbor; told hiM what he had ascertained ; expressed his desire not to make a public exposure, and said : "Now, I makes this propadtion—if you will let n't hogs , alone in the future, "I will not onlsay tiothlng of the past, i but when I k i in the fall, I'll put into your cellar live barrels of as good pork to I make." The fellow reflected a moment, and re plied ; 'squire, that's a fair prop oqition, anyhow, and eceing , as it's you, I'll do it; but I cowl believe I Shull lose pork by the operation." SHARP 114/ESS WA'S. Under the reign of the first enlipini, there was n merchant at Bagdad equally rich and avaricious.

"Well then," said the merchant, "If any one tells you it is better to be fasting than fea , ting, do not believe him; if any one tells you it is better to be poor than rich, do not believe him ; if any one tells you it is better to walk than ride, do not believe him." "My good sir," replied the astonished porter, "I knew these things before; hut, if you will listen to me, I will giYo you advice such as you never heard.'

A dispute once arose between two Seotehmen ,named Campbell and M'Lean, upon theantiquity of their families. The latter would not allow that the Campbells had any right to rank with the M'Leans in antiquity, who, lie insisted, were in existence as a clan since the beginning of the world. Campbell had a little more Biblical knowledge than his antagonist, and asked him if the clan of the M'Leans berore the flood. "Flood! what flood r asked M'Lean. "The flood, you know, that drowned all the world but Noah and his family, and his Hoek," said Campbell. • "Pooh, on you and your Hood," said M'Lean ; "my clan was afore the flood." "I have not read in my Bible," said Campbell, "of the name of 11.'Lean going into Noah's ark!" "Noah's ark !" retorted li'Lean, in eonkm pt.
