£*j|uriimurU, xc. l'rath Leaves vs. Sheep. It may not be known that peach leaves are poisonous, and often prove fatal when eaten bv animals. A few days since, in VV esterii New York, we witnessed the death of two sheep, caused by eating free ly of peach leaves. The peach is a native of Sicily, we believe, and was originally poisonous; but by cultivation, has become one of the most delicious of fruits. The leaves, however, are said to contain prussic acid. Sheep should never be allowed to run in peach orchards. Several cases have occurred in which cattle have been poisoned by eating the leaves ol the wild cherry. The lame cherry is equally poisonous. It has been said that cherry leaves are free from poison until the leaves have wilted . but cases have been known in which the green leaves haw proved poison ous and fatal to animals. In the case we witnessed, the sheep ex hibited vertigo and trembling, and frothed at the mouth, and evidently endured much pain. Alter seven hours had elapsed, a noble lamb, belonging to one of the poison ed sheep, came up and called out urgently for his supper. The sick and dying mother raised her head, turned and looked pifpously at her offspring, crying with hunger. Nerved with a spiritofmaternal af tection, she struggled and gained an upright position, and with much difficulty main tained it and gave nurse to the bleating lamb. This done, she laid down and died instantly; and, we presume, in peace. Various remedies have been suggested. A writer in the Massachusetts Plowman recommends a pint of Mew England ruin, mixed with a pint of molasses, and given to each grown animal; one third of the quantity for a lamb. .Salt would doubt less be beneficial, as it is useful in cases >t poison from the bite of snake, the sting ot bees, &.e. A gill of sweet oil, lard or Iresh butter, given in a pint of new milk, it is said, will sometimes effect a cure.— Most vegetable poisons, however, are acids, and require alkalies to neutralize them. Ammonia, lev, of wood ashes, and pot and pearl ashes are used lor the purposp.— Buffalo Wool Grower. Leaves as tfanare. Leaves, buds, and tender branches are peculiarly rich in the vegetable alkali; be side which, they contain other organic elements derived from the soil, and which, by being returned to the soil, enrich its surface, tending to prevent its exhaustation, or when newly applied, that is to other ground, to enrich it more than superficially. Leaves—and the remark is applicable to the tender branches also—seem des tined by nature for the manure of forest land; and, indeed, of ground generally wherever trees grow. The roots connect the inorganic elements essential to vege tation with the soil, penetrating deeply and widely ; the leaves detain and store up a certain portion of them, with other ele ments derived from the atmostphere, such as are required for theirgrowih; and these return to the soil with the fall of the leaf, and there undergoing decomposition, are left to be appropriated again, ami re-ad minister to the wants of vegetable growth. —Farmer's Herald.

A LSO, My Vegetable Ati-Dys)'t'p.\ia Bitters. This Medicine is n certain cure for Dyspepsia in its very worst forms. Thousands of cases have been com pletely cured by it within the last year, which have been entirely despaired of by the regular family physi cians. We do not recommend it to cure everything—ive recommend it to cure Dyspepsia, and the diseases orisi natiug from it, and that it will cure in almost every case, and it is recommended for nothing else. In many in stances, even the worst of cases have been completely cured in two and three months, hut it depends somewhat upon the constitution of the patient. We would say to all who are afliicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine a fair trial, and if it fails to do good, your money will be returned. ALSO, My Vegetable Worm Powders. This is the most wonderful Worm Destroyer ever known, ami at the name time, o pleasant to take, that almost every child will !<• fond of it. and many instances have lieen known of children crj ing for more after once taking it. This medicine is in the form of u powder, the only met: n ir.e ever used in that form, and it operates on a principle entirely different from any other medicine ever administered by any other physician. It is the only me J n to which has no Worm-seed oil or Turpentine combined with it, which is believed by all other physi cians, to be the only two things which will destroy worms, and these two things combined, together with castor oil, ere the active principle* of all other worm medicines, which every person who has ever tasted or sfuelled, knows to he the inost nauseous of all nauseous medicines, ami on account of which, there is generally something added to destroy this nauseous taste, and in order to do this, it must lie something stronger than the medicine itself, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy some of its medicinal properties. These powders are simple and so harmless, that a child may eat a whole box at once, and it will not be hurt, while at the same time, the principle upon which it acts being different from any thing else ever used, it will destroy all kinds of Worms with a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy the seat worms, or Ascarides, and long, round worms, or Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destruc tion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms front one person. If your children have any symptoms of worms, try these powders, and in nine cases out of ten, you will nev er use any other. These are also warranted. These medicines are all separate, and one for each dis ease, ami each for only one disease. They are not re commended, as many other medicines are, to cure some fifteen or twenty diseases, and all of different natures, but liiey are each to cure but one disease, and that they will do in ninety -nine rases out of every hundred, ami where they have a fair trial and fail in all cases, the money will be returned.
