OUNG MEN especially, who have become the victims of Soll tarv Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit which annually sweeps to an untimely grave thousands of youne men of the most exalted talents and brilliant intellect, who might other wise have entranced listening Senates with tho thunders of eloquence or wnked to ccstacy the living lyre, may call with full coufldeuce.

ORGANIC WEAKNESS, Impotent-)', Loss of Power, Immediately Cured and full Vigor Restored. This Distressing All'ection which renders Life miserable and marriage impossible Is the penally paid by the victims of improper Indulgences. Young persons are too apt to commit excesses from not being aware of the dreadful consciences that may ensue. Now, who that understands I the subject will pretend to deny that the power of procreation is lust sooner by those falling into improper habits than by the prudent ? Besides being deprived the pleasures of healthy offspring, the most serious and destructive symptoms to both body aud mind nrise. The system becomes de ranged, the Physical uud Mental Functions Weakened, Loss of .Proerealive Power, Nervous Irritability, Dyspepsia, Palpitation of the Heart, Indigestion, Constitutional Debility, a Waging of t tie Frame, Cough, Consumption, Decay and Death. A CURE WARRANTED IN TWO DAYS. Persons ruiued in health by unlearned preten ders who keep them trilling month after mouth, taking poisonous and injurious compounds, should apply Immediately. DR.

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE. Dr. J. addresses all those who have IiijimhI themselves by improper indulgence und solitary habits, viliich ruin both body and mind, untitling them for cither busiucss, study, society or mar riage. '1 lies u nre some of the sad and melancholy effects f reduced bv early habits of youth, viz': Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in the Back and Head, Dimness of Siirht, Loss of Mus cular Power, Palpitation of the.

Mentally The fearful effects on the mind nre much to be dreaded Loss of Memory, Con- j fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil- ! Forebodings, Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust, Love of isulitude, Timidity, ifcc, are some of the i evils produced. Titoi sAMis of persons or ull nues can now judge what is the cause of their declining health, losing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous i aud emaciated, having a singular appearance about the eyes, cough and symptoms of ujusuiup- ' lion. ; YOUNG MEN j Who have injured themselves by a certain prae- ; ticc indulged iu when alone, a habit frciiiiently I learned from evil companions, or at school, the j etleels of which are nightly felt, even when asleep, aud if not cured, renders marriage iuipos- j sible, and destroys both luiud and body, should ' apply immediately. j What a pity that a young man, the hope of his country, tlie darling of his parents, should be snatched from all prospects and enjoyments of ' life, by the consequence of deviating from the I path of nature uud Indulging in u certain secret habit. Mich persons m' st, lielore contemplating MARRIAGE, reflect that a sound mind and body arc the mo-t necessary lequisileg to promote couuubial h.ippi- j iicss. Indeed without these, the journey through ' life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect I hourly darkens to the view; the luiud becomes i shadowed with despair aud tilled with tlieuielau- I choly reflection, that the happiness of uuother j becomes blighted Willi our own. j A CERTAIN DISEASE. When the misguided and imprudent votary of i pleas. ire finds thai he has Imbibed the seeds of I tliis painful disease, it too often happens that an iil-timcd sense of shame, or dread of discovery, deters him from applying to those who, from education und respectability, can alone befriend him, delaying till the const itutiur.al symptoms ut ttiis horrid disease make their appearance, such as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, noclural pains in the head und limbs, dimness of sight, deafness, nodes on the shin bones und arms, blotches on t lie head, lace and extremities, pro trresslns with Iriulitlul rapiility, till at last the palate of the mouth or the hones ot the nose tall lu, ami the victim ot tins uwlal disease lieeouics a horrid object of coinmisc raiiou, till death puts a period to his dreadful sulfering, by sending him to " that Undiscovered Country from heucc no traveller leturus.

It is well knowu that Republican asso ciations exist in tho district, composed of 'residents of tho States, anions whom are many of the most active politicians of the country. We propose from time to time to publish tho acliou of theso associations, which may be regarded as a fair expression of the people of the States. Last night the Pennsylvania association passed the following resolutions, indorsing Grant and Wilson : Whereas, tho National Republican Con vention, held at rhila-lclphta on the 5th and Clh instant, in its regularly constituted and organized capacity, nominated for President Ulysses S. Grunt, of Illinois, and for Vice President Henry Wilsou, of Mas sachusetts ; and Whereas, the said convention established cerlaiu cardinal principles as tho ground work of our party superstructure, and to which it pledged the fealty of the loyal, pa triotic and law abiding people of the land ; and Wheieus, it is proper and in accordance with time-honored custom, that tho people subscribe to and ratify the action of those who have carried out in good faith the conventional powers delegated to them ; Therefore;, JUfoh cil, That the Pennsylvania Repub lican Association at Washington city, 1).

A few days siueo ono of our popular attorneys called upon nuother member of tho profession, aud asked his opinion upon a certain point of law. Tho lawyer to whom tho question was address ed, drew himself up and said : "I generally 1 get paid for telling what I know." The questioner drew a halt a dollar ' fractional" from his pocket, handed it to tho other, aud coolly remarked : "Tell mo all you know and give mo tho change." There is coldness between tho parties now. Findino A Vkudict. In 0110 of tho earliest trials before a colored jury in Texas, twelve gentlemen were told by the Judge to retire and "lind a verdict." They went to tho jury-room. Tho sheriffs and others standing outside heard tho 0euing aud shutting of drawers, the slamming of doors, aud other sounds of unusual commo tion. At last the jury came back into the court, when the foreman rose aud said : "Massa Judge, wa have done looked everywhar in the drawers and behind the do', and can't found no verdic'.

AVilAT TO DO IV A Case OF Sl'NSTHOKK. Now that th(! true nature of the, disease is known, the method of treatment becomes most obvious, and we learn not merely what to do, but also whtu not to do. As heat is the cause of the symptoms, common sense points to the abstraction of the heat in some way as the mode of cure. Aud hero iiifitin vivisection comes iuto play. 1 have taken au animal, comatose, paralyzed by heat, apparently dying, and plunged it into a bucket of cold water. The tempera ture of Ihe sufferer at once rapidly fell un til it reached the normal point, and just in proportion that of the water in the bucket rose. As the animal eooV'd, its respira tions became more regular, the unsteady whirl of the heart was stilled, bv-und-by the eyelids Were lifted, find out from the glassy eye came the beams of new life. If tho period of unconsciousness had beeu short, the mutual was iu a few hours ap parently as well as ever ; if long, the ani mal would recover sufficiently to recognize its surroundiuL's and to struggle for release, hut when allowed to escape, the paralyzed limbs and the slow, imperfect progression indicated the profound injury tin; nervous system had received, aud in a few hours the animal would be dead. The lessons of these experiment are too plain to be overlooked. Whatever is to be done in this disease must be done quickly. Clinical as well as experimental observation enforces this doctrine. There should, in such cases, bo no waiting for tho doctor. The remedy is so simple, the death so im minent, that the good Samaritan passing by should savo his brother. Tho good Sa maritan must, however, have a cool head to be useful. Sol every man that fulls un conscious on a hot day has sunstroke. Tnere is, fortunately, one criterion so easy of application that any ono can use it. Go at ouco to tho fallen man, opeu his shirt bosom, aud lay tho hand upou Ids chest ; if the skin be cool rest assured that, what ever may to the troub!';, it is uot sunstroke. If, ou the contrary, tho skiu be burning hot, the case is certainly sunstroke, and no time should bo lost. The patient must bo carried to the nearest pump or hydrant, stripped to his waist, and bucketful after bucketful of cold water be dashed over hiui until consciousness begins to return or the intense heal of tho surface decidedly abates.

A WOMAH MCRtrtCKS Al.fc IIKR WEALTH TO KEEP rtEIt I.OVER FIIOM DEIXO SHOT HE COMES TO AMEniCA AM) SHE FOLf.O'VS. From the St. Joseph (Mo.) Herald. 1 Yesterday, in Ono of tho Catholic churches in this city, there was celebrated a marriage in which John llollzman and Catherine Mela were made one. There is not much in the simple announcement, yet thereby hangs a tale which wo give to our readers as it was told us by a friend of the bridegroom. During the war between Prussia and France, llollzman was one of thoso who was bound to render service to his country. Ho was engaged to bo married to n girl named Catherine Met, and not liking tho idea of exposing his val uable person to tho bullets of the French men, ho conceived the idea of emigrating to a country where ho need not become a bold soldier utiles ho wished. Uutthen a little pecuniary difficulty presented itself, lie hadn't the means to pay his passage out of the country, und in his extremity he ap plied to his liance. She had, wit!-, an eye to some day keeping house with llollzman, saved up her wages, and fortunately had in her possession at that time about J?20'J. This she freely gave to her lover, who bade her a fond farewell and secured a passage for America. Gradually he worked his way to this city, but fjiU'tie winch he courted so sedulously, never smiled on him and he liesran to despair of ever being able to scud for his "Dolly VardenT or return ing to consummate the vows he had spoken, lie wrote to this effect, and ou Saturday last was nereeably surprised by receiving a telegram from her dated in New York, in forming him of her arrival there, and her intention to immediately come to St. Jo seph. She arrived hero yesterday morn ing, and ere noon the happy couple were made one. She had paid "her own way from tho old country, and besides brings him money enough with her to buy tho ne cessary furniture to bcuin housekeeping with. " Such devotion ought to meet with its reward, and we hope the newly umriied couple may never regret their action. Se.vsiuli: Talk aisoi.'t an Ansrtti) CfsTOM. If I could persuade fill theyoung people of Klmira never to treat each other, nor be treated, 1 think one-half of the dan ger from our strong drink would bo gone. If I canuot get you to sign the total absti nence pledge, binding until you are twenty five, I would be glad to have you promise three things : First never to drink on the sly, alone ; second, never to drink socially, treating or being treated ; third, wheu you drink, do it openly, and in tho presence of sonic man or woman whom you respect. Now, boys, if you wish to be generous and treat each oilier, why not select some other shop beside the liquor shop 't Sup pose, as you go by the post-office, you say, "Come, boys, come in and take some stamps.'' These stamps wiil do your friends a real good, and will cost you no more than drinks all round. Or go by the tailor's store and say : "Hoys, come, iu and take a box of collars." Walk up to the counter, free and generously, .and s.iy, "What style will you haver" Why not treat to collars as well us treat to drinks V or go by a confectioner's and proper to treat to chocolate drops all round ? or say, "I'll stand a j.tckkuife all round "f How does it happen that we have fallen into a habit, almost compulsory, of social drinking? You drink many a time when asked to, when really you do not want to. When a man has treated you, you feel mean and indebted, and keep a sort of ac count current in your mind, and treat him. And so in the use of just that agent, which at the very best is a dangerous one, you join hand iti hand to help each other to ruin, instead of hand in hand to help each other to temperance. Thos. K. Jludtcr. The Laiiok Movement. The serious ness of tin; labor troubles in New York, may be understood from the fact that the eight-hour movement has spread from one trade to another until the hosts numbor many thousands, who have resolved to stop work unless the hours be reduced. Kumors of threats and violence had been rife, not only towards laborers who refused to participate in the strikes, but iu one in stance aginst employers mid capitalists. One man, who prolesscs to speak for the eight-hour strikers, announces in the col umns of a city paper that, rather than give in to tho ten hours, "wo would hazard our lives and lay their (the employers') facto ries and houses iu aslics." Jt is not at all probable that this ferocious individual rep resents the spirit of his associates, and the executive committee of the eight-hour league repel sill such spirit and acts. The. declared purpose is by fair means, iu a general movement, to bring such inilui uee to bear upon it islaloisas will induce them to constitute eight helirs the legal day's work in the Slate of New York, as ilia now iu the I'niled .Slates government mechani cal employments. Tlarc should he, there fore, no need of the police of the citv ol New York to repress disorder, as has been I the case tn a lew instances. The contagion of strikes has extended to Philadelphia, where the strikers have riseii i against muse wtio cotiirot ttie gas woi ks oi that city, and, according to the Philadel phia iVt.v.', have the sympathies of the en tire community. The strike originated from and order charging the workmen for their tools a straw which apparently broke. "DAT Iit Goor." As a genfleinati from New York was taking a glass of wine at the St. Louis, corner of Freeman aud Hopkins street, Cincinnati, a short lime since, ho observed at another tabic, seated with several others, a del man who s 'cnicd uucasy and anxious, us if there might have been a Franco-Prussian distiirbauco be tween his beer and himself. Presently in ran a little girl, her face radiant with smiles, exclaiming : "Oh, father 1 we've got a little baby at home." "Dat Uli goot," said the Dutchman, ns the anxiety disappeared froiu his counte nance ; "lill up der glasses." Not many minutes elapsed before in rushed the little girl again with tho an nouncement : "Oh, father ! we've got fico liitk 60 at home ! Tho Dutehtnau looked a goud deal as tonished and not at all gratified at this lit tle family xedundancy, but rising ot length to the magnitude of the occasion, he said : "Veil den dal ish also goot. Fill up der glasses. " In a few minutes agaiu appeared the ra diant messenger, with the aslouudiujj proc lamation : "Oh, father ! we've got thrte Utile boy at home 1" This was too much even for Teutouie impossibilities.

A few days ago he was driving tho animal across tlic prairie, when it suddenly stopped. Tho man left his wagon and attempted to induce that uiulo to move on, but without success. Ilobeat it, he coaxed it, nnd he cussed it, but it re fused to budge, lie lied lire crackers to its tail and exploded them, but tho mulu merely turned its head iu a sort of languid way, examined the lire works, and calmly winked at the man. Then the man thought he would build a lire under the mule ; but as fast as Uc. would kit.ilU'. ,i lire tho mule, standing firm upon three lc's, reached over with its other leg and ' kicked tho flames out. Then he t're His hair and swore the man did and he rushed to tho wagon und got twelve pounds of gunpow der, and he dug n hoie under that mule and built a mine. Tie n he covered up tho chargn nnd laid a slow match, and stood off it little I'ieco while he lit it. There was a rumble, a roar, then a terriiie explosion ; and amid th' cloud of dust nnd upheaved rocks, the mule was observed to throw his biud legs iu the air and support itself upou its fore feet in that position until the blast was over, when it quietly assumed its old attitude and a gentle feature, as it p rceived its master lying dowu groaning and curs ing tho day on which he was hirn. It was of no use. The man weut home. Agricultural. C'rniNu Hay. In regard to the curing of hay the Jnn-n't! nf the Farm remarks as follows : "Willi their carefully prepared roots and herbs, many of our mothers or grandmothers could as well alleviate tho ills of humanity its cau many of eoUega- bred M. D.'s ; but note with what euro those roots and herbs were gathered and prepared. That ihey might retain ail.their virtues they weie invariably cured ii the I sli x-.lf. Now we, f.s fanners, may learn j from this a lesson of w'udoin and practical j utility, a applied to the hay field. Cure I iu the shade, versus m ike hay while tho ; sun shines. Now the question arises, which ot these two antagonistic principles or maxims shall we follow ; certainly, after due reflection, all will admit I hat hay cured iu the shade is superior to '.hat cured in the sun, whereas the former method re quires mere labor than the latter. In an swer to the above interrogations both tho price of hay uud the price of labor must ba taken into consideration ; therefore, in general, we reply : if labcr is plenty and hay commanding large prices, cure in thn shade ; but if labor is high and hay at low figures, cure in the sun. There are also other matters to be taken into account. Thus a large crop of clover should invaria bly be cut and partially wilted, gathered up in hay-cocks of suitable size and allowed to sweat a day or two ; then oiK'ii the same and, after au hour's exposure to the sun, it will be in most excellent condition to store away for winter's te. Therefore cure clover in the shade or cock, not simply be cause the sweating procuc is so highly beneficial tj this particular grass, but be cause, if the crop be laige.it will require, to sufficiently cure it, at least one or two days' exposure to the sun, nndf as a matter of ucccsity, exposing it to the night dew, and possibly loan unexpected rain slorm. Now, as a hot sun i particularly injurious to clover, and moisture, as dew or rain, far more so, therefore clover, at least, should be treated iu the maimer above des'-ribcd, or cured in the shade. Avoid Ihu very common and injurious practice of over-curing the hay. If the grass is matured when cut, nnd does not gel wet, it will l..; sulli ciently dried or cured in trout two to four hours iu favorable weat hi r, clover early cut an I lodged grasses being, of courae, ex ceptions." Gr.AKnxu Wax. This is an nrlielu that every farmer should keep on hand, ready for use v.iu new e neeiicd, for it is valuable for many purposes Iv.ides that of grafting, and, as a correspondent of the Massachusetts 1'lnii.niaa lem.ul-, v.ouuds made iu pruning; large trees will heal over much sooner if coated with this wax, aud if a piece of bark is accidentally etnpped from a tree, the place should be covered over with it, and the wood will temaiu sound aud luallhy underneath. Thcreorj several recipes for preparing this wax, and I have found the following better than any other one tried : Melt in a basiu one pound of l.illow, two pounds of beeswax ami four pounds of rosin ; stir well together, and keep in n cool place in the ilisli in which it was invited. It beeswax is a very costly item, u one-third less quantity can le used. This wax is moot excellent tor treating tho corks of bottles whose contents are desired to be air-tight, and lor covering cloths to tie over preserve jars. It can bo inched over when required for use, and it will spread with a kuile- upou bandages, etc., and is the best sealing was thai cau bo used for many purpuw s. Cauk of Calves. A celebrated Irish farmer gives this advice to one young in the business : "As a breeder you must bo careful not to lose the cull' flesh. If you d,o so by starving l ho animal at any time of his growth you loose the cream the cover ing of llesh so much prized by all our retail butchers. Where do all the scraggy, bad tleshed beast come from that we dai y see in our fa', markets, and what is the cause of their seragaineas 't It is because they have stinted uud starved at some period of their growth. If the calf flesh is ouco lost it can never be regniued. A cilat deal of tallow may be got iutcrually by high feed ing, but the auitnal cau never again be inude oue that wiil Lc prized by the great retail belcher."
