that the mean temperature of the mooth

Sm Jon Frankun'8 widow is now
sojuring in New York. For more than
twenty yeari this devoted wife has given up
all her time to the sacred duty oi search
ingor her lost husband. Her visits to
America was mnde to find a person in tho
western pari of the continent who, it was
said, had some information in relation to
Sit John Franklin's expedition whioh he
would impart to no one but Lady Fraokln
herself. We are afraid she will never ac
complish the sole object for .which she has
lived. Sir John and his companions have
long been hurried with their ead stoTj in
the snows of a frigid zone.
Yesterday morning the poliece made a
raid on the baby carriages that were being
numerously trundled through market, nnd
anxious mammas were compelled to haul
their loads out of the crowd. Tho order
was issued for sake of convenience of per
sons attending market and not from sus
picion that an unlawful us was mnde (if the
wagons, but subsequently a complaint was
made that a womau had slyly loaded her
baby wagon pretty well with vcgtables,
covered up as though tho caariage containd
a sleeping child, and had trundled it off
without being detected. Erie Dispatch.
The English claim to have a rifle which
beats the neddle guu, Chassepoi., EuOeld
or Snyidcr; and that is the Martini-Henry;
and if the account given of it in the Lou
don papers can be relied upon it must be a
deadly weapon. At a receut paize shool-
idz match at ltnbledou lour competitors
stood up with this rifle, and the closeness
nnd constancy of the fire resembled the
tile filing of a company ; in three minutes
the tirjjet oecame almost lnvisablo, owing
ti the smoke ; one of the men fired fitty-
fivo times in three minutes, or rather mor
than eghtccn times a minute, and he hit
the target every time. The taret, too,
was so defaced as to be useless. This is uu
dcniably good shooting.
The wilcrsearch for gold in the Western
mountains has never given rise to so luoli.h
and desperate aDd enterprise as that of the
Uig Ilom Expedition. Aginst the protest
of Indians tribes with whom the country
desires pc:ice, and in violation ol the orders
of the the Govern mcnt, a baud of 120 ;neu,
without military organization and incumber
ed by a large train of wagons, has penctrn
into a country from which United States
regular 'roups were driven a year ago by
hostile Indians, who are more hostile than
ever. Already rumors of their tutu reach
is. If not truo now it is impossible to le
1 eve that it will not. yet be true, and that
ihe expedition will be frequently and sav
agely ilttackfd. The United States t'avalry
which has been sent Im ivard to order the
return of tho expedition may save it from
!aujihter, but grave doubts of it bale return
must be entertained.

TO THE
IS'EFWOUS and DEBILITATED,
WHOSE SUFFERING HAVE BEEN PRO-J
TRACTED FROM HIDDEN CAUSES,
AND WHOSE CASES REQUIRE
PIIOJUPT Tit Ejt TJtlEJTT
TO RENDER EXISTENCE DESIRABLE.
If you are suffering or have Buffered,
from involuntary disonarges, what effect
does it produce upon your general
health ? Po you feci weak, debilitated, ea
sily tired f Poes a little extra exertion
produce palpation of the heart r 1'ocs your
liver, or urinary organs, or your kidneys,
frequently get out of order r Is your urine
sometimes thick, milky or flocky, or is it
ropy on settlmj' f Or does it thick skum
rise to the top ? Or is a sediment at the
bottom after it has stood awhile r Do you
have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia?
Are your bowels constipated ? Do you bavo
spells of fainting, or rushes ot blood to the
head ? Is your memory impaired ? Is
your mind constantly dwelling on the sub
ject ? Do you feel dull, listless, moping,
tired i 'company, of lilc ? Do you wish to
bo left alone, to get away from everybody?
Does any little thing nr.ake you start or
jump ? Is your sleep broken or restless ?
Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant? The
bloom of your cheek as bright ? Do you
enjoy yourself in society as well ? Do you
pursue your business with the same ener
gy ? Do you feel as much confidence in
yourself? Are your spirits dull and flag
ging, given to fits of melcncholy ? If so, do
uot lay it to your liver or dispepsia. Have
you restless nights ? Your back weak, and
have but little appetite, and you attribute
this to dyspepsia or liver-complaiut ?
Now, reader, self-abuse, veneral disease
badly cured, and sexual excesses, are all ca
pable of producini; a weakness of the gene
rative organs. The organs of the genera
tion, when in perfect health, make the man.
Did you ever think that those bold, defi
ant, euergetic, persevering business-men
are always those whose generative organs
are in perfect health? You never hear
such men complain of being nieleucholy,
of tiervntiMiet-s, of pa'patatirn of the heart.
They are never afraid they cannot succeed
in business ; they don't become sad and dis
couraged ; they are always polite and pleas
ant in company of ladies, and look you and
fhnra right in the face none of your down
cast looks or any other meanness about
them. I do not mean those who keep the
orgrns inflated by running to exces. These
will not only ruin their constitutions, but
alco those they do business with or for.
How mn:iey men, from badly cured diseases,
from the ctreuts of self-nbuse nnd excesses,
have binuzht alioiil lhat slate of weakness in
tin so origins that has reduced the ceneral sys1
ti'in so much us to induce iilmo I every other
disease idiocy, pnrnlysis, spinal attections,
suicide, and almost every other form of dis
ease w hich humanity is heir to and the real
cause of the trouble Hoarsely ever suspected,
