2' The man's a dolt who lea in grief
When be might ope the dew to laughter,
If tears afford the heart relief, - -
They leaves void for some, hoursatter.
Dull sorrow is malady,
That ends in lunacy or phthisic
Bat mirth is nature's recipe, ,
And laughter is the best Of! physic.
The king's of old, to shun ttflea.4
The ill effects of melanclvllly,
Kept merry folks, to-crown life's feast
With sparkling wil and lairmless folly ;
So Comas rules with buoyant !mad.— •-
To mirth turns fear. and pain, and sadness.,
And sends forth, ringingthrough the land,
-The laughing shout of hope and gladness:
Care, oft indulged, is like a fire
That dames and burns theMiune you blow it
Or;like a sexton--wriuklech dire—
Who digs your grave before you know it.
For 'young or old—for sage or clown—
' For all, who lire, or may hereafter—
To'eure life's ills, or keep them down,
There is nothing like a fit of laughter
nub 'Ounior.
PISTANT RELATIONS
The Albany Knrcherbocrer tells the-follow
ing " telling" story :
We saw yesterday
,a recommendation
written by an Irish4friend of ours, in favor
of a gentleman - whd was an app'licant for a
commissioner in the: ariny. Among other
things he says :—":My' friend, Mr. --,
is closely connected with the. President, his
father hiving fought aduel with one of the
•
~ T he above brings to o ur mind-4
-incident
that occurred some time'ago at Cincinnati, on
board the steamer Buckeye, just as she was
about to depart for "Nero prleans.
A tall countryman, carrying a patrol sad
dle-bags on his arm and covered wit,l?,per
spiration, and who looked as it he co uldn't
tell his head from n,budch of shingles, rush
ed into the cabin, calling at the top of his
" Whar is Col. McliitOsh ? Is Col. Man:
tosh on this boat ?"
No one answered.
" Well' then, whar is the Cap'un ? I must
Col. Mclntosh." • • ;
On being informed! that the captain was,
on the hurricane deck, pur inquiring friend
pressed through the crowd in that directiOn.
" Haul in the and shove her off,"
s ounded in his ears jUst as he 'reached the
deck.
" Stop - her, cap'unstop her! I am no
going to Orleans." .
- " Ran out the platik! Ashore with you
t-then, quick," shouted balm Hartshorne.
" I say; cap'uri, I litdot to see . Col. 'McTo
tost4 .I must see him,",
•
"I don't know hirtisir." answered the
old sea-dog.. " We can't wait—go ashore.
Haul in the'plank, I say."
'" 0, Cap'un, I must see the Kernel—he's
a distant relation of Mine, and I never seed
him in my life."
Now 'Capt. H. is a warm-liearted mai; as
every man knows. The last appeal touched
his feelings, and he kindly inqUired—
• " How near of km are you to the gentle
man whom your seeking ?"
" Why;cap'un he is ;the father of my first
child." :
" Cast off that hai4er, and let her go,"
were the lasi words we heard. And the
— boat and the man that Was itr search of his
relative wended their! way to New Orleans.
We have not yet heard that the man found
Mclntosh, or the.Oace at which he lan
ded.
ANECDOTE Or A Wpiravr.n.-4 uunisteral
acquaintance of ours,! who had lost his wife
and became wearied of his second edition a
the single state, was Once instructing a con•
gregation from the pasiage—"Use this world
as not abusing it," Sce.! In the Course of his
remarks he took occasion to mention some
things which a Christiah could dispense with
•in this werld. In this category he placed a
wife. He had, however, scarcely said. " A
man may do withouta wife," when his own
experience stoutly prOtested, and he finished
this branch of the subject by saying in the
simplicity of •his bean ; "but my brethren
its mighty hard."

THE TRUE DIGESTIVE FLUID.IOR CASTRIC

ON, after directions of Baron Liebig, the -great Phy
siological Chemist. by J. S. Houghton, M. D., No. 11
North Eighth Street, Philadelphia, Pi. -
Thus is a truly wonderflit remedy for indigeAtion,
Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint; Constipation,
nod Debility, curing after Nature's own method, by
Nature's own agent, the Gastric bum..
O'ilalf a teaspoonful.of this Fluid, Infused In water,
will digest or dissolve. - Fire Pounds of Roast Beef in
about two hours, out of the Stomach.:
DIGESTION. •
Digestion is chiefly performed in thd stomach by the
aid of a fluid which freely exudes from the inner coat
of that organ, when in astute of health, called the
Gastric Jtilce. This fluid is the Great solvent of the
Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and Stimulating
Agent of the stomach and intestines. Without it there
will be ao diaestiom—no conversion of Food into
blood, and no nutrition of the body ; bier rather a foul,
torpid, painful, and destructive condition of the whole
digestive apparntas. A weak, half deed, or .Injured
stomach produces no gond Gastric Jhire, and hence
the di ,dlidress and debility tallith ensue.
PEPSIN — AND BENET.
Pepsin As the chief element, or great'Digestiag prin
ciple of the Gastric Juke. It is found in great abun
dance in the mild parts of the human stomach after
death, and sometimes ramie+. the ctOmach to digest
or eat itself up. It le oleo found in the stomach
of animals, ne the oz, calf, &r. It is the materiatused
by farmrrs In making rhergf!. railed Renner, the effect
of which has long been the special wonder of the
dairy. The cording of milk la the first proress of di.
gestion. Rennet possesses astonishing power. The
stomach of* calf will curdle nearly one thousand
time!" tie own weight of milk. Baron Liebig, state■
that "One part of Pepsin dissolved in dilly thoneand
parts of water, will digest meat and other friod."—
Dieeased stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice,
Renet or Pepsin. Toshnw that this want may be per
fectly supplied, we quote the following
..SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE!
Baron 11.tehlg, In his celebrated wnrk on Animal
Chethistry ‘ says: "An Artificial Digeative Fluid ana
logous to the Gastric Juice, may he readily prepared
from the mucous membrane cif the stomach of the Calf,
In which various articles of fond. /114 meat and eggs,
will be softened, changed, and digeited. just In the
same manner as they would he is the human stomach.'
Dr. Pereira, in his famous treatise on "Fond and
Diet" published by Fowlers & %V 411., New York,
•page 35, states the same great fart. and describes the
method of preparation. There are OW higher authori
riPS than Dr. Pereira. ! .
Comhe, !n his valuable writlngs.on the "Physiol•
fly of Digestion," observes that 'a 4tmunliion of the
due quantity of the Gastric. Juice in f prominent and
an-prevailing cause of Dyspepsia ;!' and he Mates
that 'a distinguished professor of medicine in London,
who wan severely afflicted with thin: complaint, find
ing yretyititint else in fall, had recourse to the Gastric
Juice. obtained from the stomarti of living . animals,
which proved completely successful;"
table Met," says • is a remarkable fart In physi
ology, that the stomachs of animajl, macerated In
water, inigart to the fluid the property of diotolvins
various artistes of food, and of effecting a kind of are
tificial digestion of them in no wise different from the
'
naturanligestive process."
Dr. Slinon'si great work, the ..Chemistry of Man,"
Meg & Dlanchard.Phila. MS, pp. 321.2) says "The
discovery of PEPSIN forma a new era in the cherni•
cal histmy of Digestion. From rei,ent experiment*.
We know that food is dissolved as rapidly in an arti
ficial digestive doid. prepared from Pepsin. at it is in
the natural Gastric Juke itself."
Professor Dunglisrm of the Jeffersno College. Phila
delphla; in his great work on huthati Physiology, de
voirs more than fitly pages to an er4Minillinn of this
subject. Ills experiments with lir. ?Pontoon!, on the

and from animate are well known. i "In all rases."

THE GERMINATION OF REEDS
When a gardener has some choice and
scarce seeds, ;or when he is endeavoring
to raise a particularly early crop, he takes
more, than ordinary care with them. He se
lects some good soil, sows seeds, waters them
enough, but .not too much. and takes the
greatest care to fit all the conditions to the
nature and requirements of the young plants.
If 14 is anxious to hurry on the germination
of the seeds, so as to bring the young plants
forward as rapidly as posSible, he gives theist
a little bottom beat, sowing the seeds in the
mould resting on half rotten dung, because,
-under these circumstances, the gentle heat
of the still fermenting' manure, mod the, va
pors which it gives out,' are highly favora
ble to the germination of_ the seeds. 'Phis. is
one Of the hest known modes of raising young
plants: for notwithstanding all that has been
said about seed steeping and other wonder- ,
ful 'modes of accelerating the growth of
plants, we have at the present time no more
powerful mode of aiding germination,,- and
forcing the growth of young plants. This
is the plan adopted{ by the best gardeners
with their choicest seeds. -4 1 Gardepprs' Citron

MILK ROOMS IN CELLARS
Farmers about to build a dwelling, should

The floor should be flagged with stone, as
they can be kept sweeter or colder than even
cement or brick, which absorb "
and thus taint the atmos?here. The walls
And ceilings should be plastered , to facilitate
*bite-washing and cleansing. Nothing but
milk and cream should be kept in the room,
as a pure atmosphere for cream to rise in. is
absolutely essential for the making of sweet
butter.
What is needed to have a cool, sweet Cel
lar, is a current of air, which will be secured
by the aforesaid flue and the open windows,
as a strong current of air is , at least ten de
grees colder than the same air . rest.
Farmers ought to know that churning can
be done with arty good churn in from ten to
fitteen‘mioutes, as well in winter as in sum
mer, by having the temperature of the cream
right, say fifty-eight to sixty -degrees. The
temperature of an ordinary sitting or living
room in winter, to be cornfortable, is sixty
five to sixty-eight degrees, and a closet open
ing into such a room would be the best place
to keep the pot in winter. In summer the
cream can he readily reduced to the right
temperature, by breaking up clean pieces of
ice and putting it into the churn.

MILK, CREAM AND 'BREAD
It is not generally known that the sourness
of milk and cream may be immediately cor
rected by ;the addition of a small quantity of
the common carbonate of magnesia, in pow
der. Half a teaspoonful (about equal to
four grains) may be added to a pint of milk
or .cream, if only slightly sour ; a larger
quantity in proportion to the degree of sour
ness. From-two to three grains may be ad
ded to every pound of flour to prevent sour
ness in bread—so injurious to health. Car
bntiatiof soda is sometimes employed for
the same purpose, but it communicates a
very Unpleasant flavor to the bread ; and
