LEWIS, HUGH LINDSAY, Publishers. VOL, XXVI, HOW TO CURE CONSUIVIPTION. THE PHILOSOPHY OP DR. SCHENCK'S 011 E lT MEDICINES.—WiII people never learn to know that diseased liver and stomach necessin fly disease the NMI° system t The plainest principles of common sense tooth this and yet there are hundreds Sr ha ridicule the id. a, and continuo ill the comso Inhich almost inns tinkly brings them prematurely to the grave, Lining ne the majority of the people do, at complete variance with tho law, of nature, it must be apparent to all that. snorer or later, nature m ill revongo herself. Hence wo find that poisons en lie indolge to excess in the use of very rich or indigestible food or intoxicating drinks. /mortality pay a heavy penalty in the end. The stomach becomes dm orderekand refuses to net the liver fails to perform its functions, ill spopsia and its attendant evils follow, and still the suffering indin Wools persist in clinging to the thoroughly exploded idea of the pact. Dr. SCHENK'S medicines are recommended to all such. They bring sere and certain relief wherever they are used n, du acted, and all that is necessary to establish their reputation with every ailing man or woman in the lentils a flur and impartial trial of them. Let those who are skeptical on this point, and who have permitted interested percent to prejudice them against them now celebrated remedies for consumption. discard their prejudices, and be governed by the principles of reason .and common sense. If the system is disordered depend upon it, in nine cases out of ten the seat of the disorder will be found in the stomach and liver. To cleanse and invigorate the stomach and to stimulate the liver to healthy notion, use SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PI LLS.—The daily increas ing demand for these pulls In the beet evidence of their value. Thonsamis upon thonsands of bOXOB are sold daily. Why? Simply because they act promptly and efficiently Invalids who may not find it convenient to call on Dr. SCHENCK in person are informed that full and com plete directions for use accompany each package of the 3IANDIIAKE PILLS, PULMONIC SYRUP AND SEA. WEED TONlC.—These medicines will cure consumption unless the lungs nro so far gone that the patient is entire ly beyond the mach of medical relief. It may be asked by those who me not familiar with the virtnes'of these great remenlies,ellow do Dr. Schenck's medicines effect their wonderful cures of consumption 1" The answer is a simple one. They begin their work of restoration by bringing the stomach, liver nod bowels into an active healthy condition. It is filed that cures this formidable disease. SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS act on iho liner and stomach, promoting healthy secretion, and removing the bile and slime which trove result, d from the 'ninth° or torpid condition cf those or gans, and of the system generally. This sluggish state of the body, and the consequent accumulation ofthe tin. healthy substances named prevent the proper digestion of food, and. as n natural consequence creates 'disease, which result, in prostration and finally In death.. myl2 69 . . SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP mid SEAWEED TON IC, semen taken regularly, mingle with the food, and the digestive organs, make good and rich blood and as a nat ural consequence, give flesh and strength to the patient. Let the faculty nay what it may, this Is the only true cure for consumption. Experience has proved beyond the shadow oh a doubt, and thousands aro today alive and well who a few years since were regarded as hope. less cases, but who were induced to try Dr. SCHENCK'S remedies, and were restored to permanent health by their use. 1313EME! One of the first stops the physician should take with a consumptive patient is to int igorrto the system. Now how is tine to ho done I Certainly not by giving medi cines that exhaust and enervate—medicines that impair Instead of improve the inactions of the digestive organs Doctor SCHENCK'S medicines cleanse the stomach and boucle of all substances m Inch are calculated to irritate or weaken them. 'they create an appetite—promote healthful digs stion—m.dte good blood, and, as a conse quence, they tuvip,ot ate and strengthen the entire sys tem and mote especial ly those parts a biell are diseesed If this cannot be done, then the case must be regarded as. linpeleßs one. If the physician finds It impossible to make a patient feel hungry, if the deceased person cannot par take of good nourishing food and properly digest it. it is impossible that lie can gain in flesh nun strength; and it Is equally impossible to tiring a patient to this eond Mon so long as the liver is burdened with diseased bile, and the stomach laden with unhealthy slime. Almost the fleet ecolost made to the physician by a consumptive Erotica; is that lie will prescribe medicines that will Minty the cough, night sweats and chills, which are the Earn aitendsnta mt COleraMpliall.

This thing of being a farmer is all very nice for you to rend about, you know, but if you get in the business you will wish you had been born in an orphan asylum, and died in your second sum mer. I don't want to obtrude my private affairs on the public, but I'm like an awful example in a temperance lec ture, you understand, and if I can save any other men from my fate, why I am going to do it. bly advice to all men is, be an honorable organ grinder or an ex-President, or a gorilla, or go into the cold victual business, or ped dle matches, but don't agriculture. I bought a small farm in New Jer sey, and became a husbandman. I stocked the estate with all the appa ratus, and as I didn't know any more about farming than a goose does about four dollars a week, I engaged a man named Stoddles as my constitutional advisor. Stoddles professed to be up to all the horbolic dodges, but I must confess that after eighteen months I consider Stoddles a fraud. As an ab solute failure he is a perfect success. In the first place there was not a drop of water on the promises, and Stoddles said he would advise me as a friend, to dig a well. So I got a lot of tools and begun. Wo hadn't dug more than six feet before wo struck solid rock. I wanted to slant her off to one side, but Stoddles observed that was the rock on which the State of old New Jersey was founded, and we would have to blast her. So we blasted her and got one of the finest earthquakes you ever saw in your born days. It shook down 2 chimneys and lightning rod, and Stod dies was struck on the head with a falling of a brick. We dug in that well for a week, and we struck everything but water. I could have got coal, oil, gold, marble and marl or anything else out of that excavation, but I was looking after cold water just then, and I would not want, to touch anything else. Stod dlos took mo aside at the end of the week and confidently advlsed me to stick at it; for,' said he, 'you know if you can't get water at first, if you keep on you're bound to strike water on the outside, and then you, have a sure thing of it: you have got it all in your own hands, you understand.' • Stoddies put me in mind of a man who grew carrots so long that the Chinese pulled them through by the roots from the opposide of the globe before ho got a chance at them. My oxen were singular oxen. They both seemed to have St. Vitus' dance in their tails, they could never keep them still. It annoyed me, for I was afraid every minute they would work loose, and no decent farmer, you know, wants to bo wandering around with bob tailed oxen. So I tied a stone to the end of each tail to keep them down, and this worked well enough until one morning when the flies were bad, and the near ox got his brush up, stone and all, and liked to have brain ed my oldest boy. I've got the tail tied to his off hind leg now, and if he wants to switch it, he's got to lift him self off the ground. And it's the same way with the hens. I bought a lot of hens on purpose to lay eggs, but they are not on that lay. Every ono I've got seems to feel that she is out of her normal sphere if she is not setting.— That old speckled bon of mine has been thrown up in the air, soused iu cold water, put under a barrel, and had all the inducements held out to her to knock too, but she has a good deal of firmness of character, and she is now trying to hatch a door knob and grindstone handle, and I think she'll succeed. , I planted some onions some time agb, and I waited all summer to see thorn bear. But they didn't. After they had gone to seed, Mr. Stoddles said that onions grow under ground and I ought to have them dug out. Next year I planted some tomatoes, antras'eoon as they Oomo_l began dig ging for them. Mr. Stoddles said that I had ruined all the plants, for toma toes grow on the top. Why don't they have all things alike, anyhow ? What's the use of ono growing in the ground and the other out of it? Why there ain't any. I planted potatoes last year, but they didn't grow. "Nev er you mind," said Mr. Stoddles, "them is all right." But I was naturally im patient, and so after waiting seven months, I wont out and dug for ono and there it was, in the very spot where I put it, looking so familiar and natural that I sat down and cried like a baby. Then I dug them all up; they had kept first rate. There don't seem to be much profit in it. Mr. Stoddlos re marked that they were not a prolific variety, and I don't think they wore myself. Don't ever keep bees. I have some, but Stoddles accidentally sat on one, ono day, and ho made such a bowl about it that tho whole hive swarmed on me and scared mo out of my senses. I like a sociablo bee, but there is such a thing as overdoing cordiality. How aro you on parsnips ? I advise you not to cultivate them. A man gave mo some seeds, which ho said wore a good variety. I planted ono to try it. It was a double rooted kind —straddled out like a fork in the road. When it got ripe I thought I would take it up, but it wouldn't come. I tackled that parsnip with a monkey wrench, a crowbar and a cross cut saw, but it never moved au inch.— Stoddles said it was on account of them roots, and I had bettor have them extracted with gas. He said he . ,ff. :.,!;:;' t , , , , ..... li, f ik k . _ , v: g V ifi. 6 f., jr l f. „ 1,..•; it 4 , -- 5: .„- ~, t. .! .

So we got a yoke of oxen, and hitch ed them on, and the old vegetable came along with half a ton of rock in his grip, and then it was so tough that you couldn't make an impression on it with a cold chisel. I suppose you are not bothered any with crows. Well, I am. The crow is a vivacious and sagacious bird. Our crows combined the acute intelligence of human and condor. I sowed a patch of corn last spring, and went to tea at night feeling sweetly and calm ly happy. The crows held caucus that evening, and fell in for grub on my corn. There wasn't a grain left in the morning. I sowoa some more and harrowed it in; you know what a harrow is—an exaggerated curry-comb. Well,strange to relate, the crows missed just seven grains of that corn, and precisely that number of stalks came up, and _proba bly I should have got in a crop of two or three ears to the acre, if the cows hadn't broke the fence, and ate it be fore it came to any thing. Mr. Stod dies says corn is a poor crop. I should think it was. As I couldn't got water from the well, I concluded to take it from the river. So I laid down a mile and a half of pipe and set a hydraulic rant to force the water along. It worked first rate, but the trouble is, I can't stop the ram. After I got enough of water in the tank, the ram kept on pumping and the water overflowed and drench ed the house, and flooded the kitchen, and finally arranged itself into a first class cascade out of the garrett win dow. It is going yet, and I sleep in the barn. If you hear of anybody ad vertising for a magnificent water-fall, let me know, will you ? And then as to horses. I know that man whose horse went so. fast that when he stopped him suddenly it turn ed the haio the wrong way,. but that is not the forte of my horse. My horse's weakness is backing. As a back er I -never saw hid equal. He would back from here •to Kansas if you'd lot him. He sedins to think that is the way nature intended him to go. I always hitch him up with his head over the daSh board of the wagon, and he trots along first rate.— That is, he used to. For last Wed nesday I tied him to a tree, and he got one of his fits on him, and backed clear out his hide, which ho loft bitch ed to the tree whilehe pranced his old carcrss over the asparagus bed, and died. But as he had the glanders, and worried with tho hots, and bothered with the blind staggers, and besides having the heaves, and being •sprung in the knees, it was just as well. Steddles says that is the best day's job he ever did. If you know a man who has a taste for farming—some regular feeble minded, glibboring im becile or an idiot who wants to buy a place recommend him to me, will you? I want to sell out cheap. I'd rather have a domfortable situation in State Prison than to be gardening here in this kind of style. The Shadow of Life. Wo have rarely met with anything more beautiful than the following, which wo find in an old Now . Yorlt - Nirror : "All that live must die; Passing through nature to eternity." Men seldom think of the .great event of death until the dark shadow falls across their own path, hiding for ever from their eyes , the faces of the loved ones, whose living smile was the sunlight of their existence. Death is the great antagonism of life, and the cold thought of the tomb is the skele ton in all our feasts. We do not want to go through the dark valley, although its passage may lead to Paradise; and, with Charles Lamb, wo do not wish to lie down in the mouldy grave, oven with kings and princes for our bed-fellows.' But the fiat of nature is inexorable There is no appeal or repeal from the great law that•doomo us all to the dust. We, flourish and fade like. the leaves of the forest, and the frailest flowers, that blooms and withers in a day, has not a frailer. bold on life than the mightiest monarch that .has over shook the earth by his footsteps. Gen erations of men 'appear and vanish like the grass, and the countless tudo that swarms the world to-day, will to-morrow dis'appear like foot prints on the shore': "Boon as the' rising tide shall beet, Each trace will vanish from the sand." In the beautiful drama ,of lon,,the instinct of immortality, so eloquently uttered by the death devoted Greek, finds a deep response in every thought. flu soul. It is nature's prophesy of life to come. When about to yield his young existence as a sacrifice to fato, his betrothed Clemantho asks if they shall not meet again; to which he re plies : "I have asked that dreadful questiob of the hills that look eternal; of the flowing streams that flow for ever; of the stars, among whose fields my raised spirit bath walked in glory. All were dumb. But while I gaze upon thy living face, I feel there's something in that love which mantles through its beauty that cannot wholly perish. We shall meet again, Ole mantho." ' LOVE or IiATURF:—He who has a love of nature can never be alone. In tho shell ho picks up on the shore, in the leaf fading at his feet, in the grain of sand, and in tho morning dew, ho sees enough to employ his mind for hours. Such a mind is never idle He studios the works of his ➢faker, which ho sees all around him, and finds a pleasure of which the devotee of sin and folly can from no concep tion. a-ZIOSBM JOB PRINTING OFFICE.
