GUSTAV LIN YARD'S Taste Restorative Trochc,s, the Great Substitute • ,for Tobacco. It is a well known and incontrovertible fact that the use of Tobacco is the promoting cause of many of the most se vere MENTAL AND PHYSICAL DISORDERS to which the race of man is subject, as careful analysis and long and painful experience have clearly proven that it contains certain narcotic and poisonous properties most dangerous in their effects, which by entering into the blood derange the functions and operations of the Heart, causing many to suppose that organ to be seriously deceased. TOBACCO affects also the -entire nervous system, mani festing itself—as all who futve used the noxious weed will bear testimony—in Lassitude, Nerimus Irritability, Wate- Brash, Dyspepsia, and many other disorders of a similar character. - - - TILE TASTE RESTORATIVE TROCIIESare designed to counteract these baneful influences, and have proved com pletely successful in a multitude of cases, and wherever used. Being harmless in themselves they exert a benefi cial effect upon the entire system, restoring the taste,which has become vitiated or destroyed by great indulgence, com pletely removing the irritation and accompanying tickling sensation of the Throat—Which two always consequent upon abstaining from the use of Tobacco, and by giving a healthy tone to the Stomach, invigorate the whole system. Persons who are irretrievably undermining their con stitutions and. shortening their liVes, should use these Troches immediately and throw off the injurious and un pleasant habit of Tobacco Chewing. These Troches or Lozenges aro put up in a convenient and portable form at the low price of 50 Cents per Box.— A liberad discount to the Trade.

The subject is one that cannot be too frequently discussed. Scarcely a week goes by, without fearful illustrations of the folly, nay, the crime of. _unreliability. This is es pecially the case with the young and the in experienced. They have little knowledge of of theworld, and they act throughout, loose ly and rashly. They forget that they have yet to win for themselves a name and a rep utation, and thus they trifle with their word, they neglect their engagements, and they vi olate the truth: The consequences are la mentable.' An individual Who begins life in this way, will soon become distrusted, sus - - pected, condemned, and despised. There is nothing like reliability in friendship, in bus .inesS, in commerce, and indeed in all the transactions of life.' Let this important fea ture of the mind and heart become firmly es tablished; and the salutary effects will be seen in a thousand ways. A few years since an individual on commencing business, had oc casion to ask a favor in the form of a loan of a few hundred dollars of a friend. It was' granted, cheerfully granted, and at the-expi ration of the appointed time, it was returned. Some months after, the young man became involved to a slight extent, and found it ex tremely difficult to extricate himself. He rep resented all the facts frankly and without dis guise to his former friend, who immediately proffered assistance, stood by and sustained him. The result was, that he passed through the fiery ordeal, and is now in a highly pros perous condition. The friend, when the sec ond application was made to him, availed himself of the opportunity to give a word of advice. He said that he had found him true to his first engagement, and therefore a relia ble man, and he had faith in him. But, lie continued, " if. you bad failed on that occa sion, or had even quibbled or equivocated—l would have suspected your integrity, and have governed myself accordingly. Be admon ished therefore, in all your future transac tions. Never deceive one who has befriended you--never impair confidence that is cherished —never, if possible, violate an engagement." And this is the real philosophy, not-only of commercial life, but of all the transactions between man and man. The individual who is not reliable, can never be trusted on any occasion. He is his own - worst enemy, and will often deceive himself. Many persons are in the habit of postponing the discharge of a_cluty from day to day and froth week to week, because the task is painful. Thus, even from absolute necessity, they are com pelled to delay the payment of, a loan, or to violate an engagement, they neglect to seek , out the party aggrieved and tell the whole truth. They thus attempt to evade Or avoid the responsibility, whereas they only deepen the injury and make the matter worse. All are liable to disappointment and misfortune, audit is impossible at alltimes, to control : our actions: Bet we can at least explain the mat ter as fully and clearly as possible, and thus exonerate ourselves from any wilful or wan ton violation of duty. This is ever the case with the reliable. They feel a sense of their responsibility, and :they would not commit any act calculated to 'weaken the confidence that is felt in their honer; intelligence and character. How broad is the contrast with the uncertain, the evasive, and the unreliable! They can be - depended upon at_no time and under no circumstances. They are ever wil ling to promise, but rarely ready to _perform, They labor under some moral obliquity of - mind. They cannot appreciate the power and beauty of truth. They falter and fail, • when they should be firm and resolute: They, can be depended on at no time, at no place, and under no circumstances.. Their moral - constitution is defective, and they not only annoy others, but they injure temselves. The. force and beauty of reliability cannot be too highly appreciated.. ; Without it, the _human character is sadly defective - . , No man can be honest - who is not reliable.. No man can be trustful who does not keep his engage ments and fulfill his promises. How many cases of ruin have been produced by a. viola tion_of this virtue?_ The most - cautious are liable to be deceived once—nay, twice. , But thereafter they will avoid - the unreliable as utterly unworthy, and. never to depend upon. The error, too, prevails widely. Its real char acter aid. its evil effects are not silfficiently recognized. The •trifling, the inconsistent, the unsteady; and the infirm of purpose,"are among the unreliable. So,loo, the heartless and the unprincipled. The indieidual .who coolly promises what - he never intends to per= forth, and . thus kindleS false hope, is.not only hypocritical, but hods base: ' In brief e the quality of 'reliability cannot be too Carefully cultivated.

Did we but do to-day the good which we purpose to do 10-21tOrr020, how changed would be the face of the World ! What groaning and tailings over sin would instantly heat, on our startled ears !

This is not only just, but expedient to give her. Man de frauds himself when he withholds it.: For is not woman to he his constant companion ? Would he choose that his companion should be destitute of ideas? Surely not. The'con versation of an educated woman is a perpet ual feast. If the first pleasure of life is tion, the second certainly is talk. And there is almost-as much pleasure in talking about things as doing them. A man wants in ti wife not only a companion, but a counseller, No one mind even saw all sides of all sub jects, nor ever all sides of one subject. And the wisest suggestions not unfrequently come from the least informed. 'The Pythoness, the Sybils, were women because women were always supposed to enjoy a nearer access to , the fountain of wisdom than man. Women have a right to a good husband, because most of them mean to do the thing that is nearly right. Wherahey marry they have a right that their liusMds should be men, and not mere wrecks of debauchery and dissipation. Oh, it is one of the cruelest of wrongs for a pure. and innocent girl to throw herself away upon a broken down victum of licentiousness, who-is more fit for a hospital than to preside over a family, the candidate for premature decay and early death. The mind and moral nature generally in such cases is quite as much wreck as the body. The freshness of life is all worn off, the gay ety of innocence.is forever gone. The life of such a man is cold and hard, destitute of sentiment and enthusiasm. Woman is cru elly wronged when she has accepted such a companion. Woman has a right to the society of her husband. Home should be his sanctuary, and he ought to find his happiness there.— If he does not, there is something wrong.— He has promised to be the husband—that is the house-band—the band that keeps the household together. - His presence there is necessary to keep all right. If he wanders heedlessly, something is apt to go wrong.---- His authority is often wanted to maintain' order, to arrange, business, to superintend la bor. His absences ought to be few and un frequent as possible. Woman has a right to this, and her rights are grossly violated whem her husbands is often unnecessarily away'. Lastly, woman has a right to the 'earnings' of her husband for the support of their fam ilies, We never saw a drinking saloon, from the low groggery to the preponderous hotel, withot saying to ourselves, here, after all, is the most outrageous violation of women's rights. We sometimes get a glimpse at these apartments, and whom do we see . there Husbands and fathers,. who 'subsist upon their daily rages, spending one-half ; perhaps all their earnings in liquid poison, to ruin their health, spoil their temper, corrupt their morals, make themeselves odious and loath some vagabonds, while 'their wives are at home earning, by the' slender gains of their needle, the pittance which rescues their-mu tual offsprings from starvation. Oh 1 this is too bad to be seen and suffered in a Christaia country. This outrage upon woman's rights cries loudest of all to heaven, and if there were a particle of chivalry in these degenerate days, this is the first abuse in our social economy which would be abated. Tell us uct of bar barism, of the Malays, or the Fejee Islanders who roast their enemies and pick their bones. Their enimies expect it, and would .do the' like in return. But hero the cruelty is in flicted by: a friend=the one who ought to be the nearest and tenderest of all! Our boast ed civilization and Christianity of the nine teenth century—what are they? = Of all happy households, that is the hap= piest where falsehood is never thought of.— All peace is-broken up when -it happens that there is a liar in the : house.
