DR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduated from one of the most eminent
College in the United States, nnd the greater
part of whose ife lias been spent In the hospitals
of London, Pris, Philadelphia, and elsewhere,
has t llecled some of the mutt astoiiibhitig cures
that were ever kuowu ; ninny troubled w ith ring
ing lu the head and cars when asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed at sudden sounds,
bashfuluess, with frequent blushing, attended
sometimes wkh derangement of mind, were cured
immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addiesKe all thofc who have Injurrcl
themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
habits, which ruin both body mid mind, untitling
them for cither business, study, society or mar
riage. 1 hess arc some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habit of youth, viz:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in the
Back and Head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Mus
cular Power, Palpitallou of the lleurt, Dyspcpsy,
Nervon Irritability, Dcrangemciil ol Digestive
Functions, Gcnerul Debility, Symptoms of Con
sumption, Ac.
Mentally The fearful elTccts on the mind
are much to be dreaded Los of Memory, Con
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil
Forebodings, Aversion to Society, fceif-Distnist,
Love of Solitadc, Timidity, Ac, are some of tho
evils produced.
Tuoubandh of persons of all ages can now
Judge what is the rouse of their declining health,
losing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous
end emaciated, having a singular appearance
about the eyes, cough and symptom of consump
tion. YOUNH MEN
Wbo have injured themselves by a ccrtalu prac
tice Indulged in when alone, a habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at scliaol, the
ellects of which are nightly felt, even when
asleep, and if uot cured, renders marriage Iiuihis
slble, and destroys both luind and body, should
apply Immediately.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, tlio dai luig
of his pi. rents, should be
suatelu'i from all prosficcta and enjoyments of
life, by the consequence of deviating from lliu
path of nature nnd Indulging in a certain iccret
habit, bucli persons Mt L beloie contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that a sound mind ami bedy arc the most
necessary requisite to promote connubial happi
ness. Indeed w illiout these, the Journey through
life becomes u weary pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; the mlud becomes
shadowed with despair mid filled Willi the melan
choly retlectiou, lliut the happiness of another
become blighted w ith our own.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary of
pleasure tinds that lie has Imbibed tho seeds of
this paiuful disease, it too often happens that au
ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery,
deters him from applying to those who, from
education and rcsvwcLuhility, can alone befriend
him, delaying till the cunMitiilional symptoms of
this horrid disease make their uppeaiauce, such
as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, uoctural
pulns iu the head uud limbs, dliuues of sight,
deafness, nodes ou the sbiu boues und anus,
blotches ou the bead, face uud extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at lust the
i'a late of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
n, and the victim of this awful disease become
a horrid objuct of commiseration, till death puts
a period to hi dreadful Buttering, by sending
him to "that Undiscovered Country from whence
no traveller returns."
It is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
Into the hands of Ignorant or uusklilful PRE
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution, nnd
incapablo of curing, keep the uubuppv sullcrur
month after month taking their noxious or In
jurious compounds, and instead of beiug restored
to a renew al of Lite Vigor and Happiness, lu des
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
bis galling dlsiippolutmeut.
Te auco, therefore, Dr. Johnston pledge him
self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, aud
from hi extensive practice aud observation iu
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first iu
this country, viz: Englaud, France, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, is enabled lo oiler the most cer
tain, speedy and liectual remedy in the world
for all disease of Imprudence.

LOCAL OPTIO.V.
Tint Law Constitutional. Opiniox
OF A fAJi)fllTt OF THE SUPREME
Court sustaining tub Constitu
tionality OF THE LAW DlSHENTINO
Opinion of Chikf Justice Head and
Judge Sua rs wood.
Supreme Court in Banc-Ciiief Jus
twe Head, asd Judge aonew,
bUARSWOOD AND YVlLLIASS.
This morning Judo Agnow tlolivvrotl
tlio opinion (if the nmjurlty of tho court In
tin ,'cal Option ease. Tho. opinion was
very lon, hut tho following is a substantial
StiUi.'ineiil of the points in the decision :
The Juiij;e sa'nl it was nn rtflmilleU enr
diiml principal of government Hint the
Legislature, which is the Rjretit of the pp.n
pic, cannot dele v'KO its legislative power
to any other pvrsiQ.. Hut what did the
Legislature in thi iin-liXuce do Y It panaed
a law prohibiting tlio sale of intoxicating
liquors iu tho Twenty-second ward, nnd
provided penalties for breach of its require
ments. Thus it was a period law when it
left tho Governor's hands ; the vote of the
people did not make the law, did not give
force to any prohibition, did not create a
penally, but simply expressed nil opinion
upon the law, thcir Sentiments aud wishes
iu regard to it.
Such a vote might be very useful in ns
cct'l.iining the utility or ndvisability ofa
particular law, and when the Legislature
simply calls lo its aid the vote uf the people
to ascertain their views, it acts strictly
within its proier sphere. The case of the
Commonwealth vs. Parker did not decide
this question, for there the law was imper
fect, in that it was uot mauditory until
afu r tho popular decisjon, but tho present
law was perfect when it left tho legislative
bands. The law did not spring from the
vote, but the vote sprung from the law.
To say that a law reMing ou a future
contingency is invalid would he to rob the
Legislature ofthe power to act wisely and
well for ihe best interests of the people.
Though the Jx-gislalure cannot delegate
the power lo make a law, yet it can make
a law and delegate tho power to ascertain
s quj particular point upon which the ac
tion of the law itself is to depend. The
mayor and councils have delegated tolhetu
tt o power of making laws and ordinances ;
but this was simply the power to determine
what is bist for the city, nnd tho chat ter of
thucity was tho law which breathed life and
f n ee into the result of this .Siale since Par
ker vs. The Commonwealth ruled the case.
After citing nuuierous authorities, the
op nion closed by allirming the judgment
of the court below.
DISSENTING OPINION.
Chief Justice Head and Judge Sharswood
dissented from the majority opiuion, nnd
tho Chief Juslice read an opinion, main
taining that the power of making laws was
given to the Legislature, nnd by express
words conlined to that body; the correction
of hasty and unwise legislation being pro
vided for by tho vetoing power, vested in
the Governor ; anil toe legislature could no
more delegate its functions than the judici
ary. This law, tho Chief Justice thought,
had uo force oi vitality until voted upon ;
it was enacted, not by tho voters. This
was permitting a poiii n of tho citizens to
inflict upon another portion uncalled fir
punishment and unwauted penalties. The
pirpu ition of ihe city, already larjo and
rapidly growing, is sulllcient to show that
a prohibitory law cannot be enforced here.
For these reasous the net was deemed un
constitutional. If this were constitution why could not
tiie Legislature devolve this power upon a
minority t If they could delegate it to a
majority they could delegate it to a minor
ity. In referring to the prohibitory law of
Massachusetts, the Chief Justice said it
was notorious that liquor could be had in
every hotel, restaurant, and oyster saloon
in Boston. The law is in fact a dead let
ter there, the evil beiug to encourage de
ception, falsehood, ami fraud, and to at
c istoui citizens to a daily violation of law.
M ssrs. Heulcr & Alley, "of IJostou. are the
ui.wt extensive brewers in ths United
hialts, producing HS.tWO barrels of ale per
annum. Iu Massachusetts the people
Were spending two pound slerling per
h -ad K-r annum on strong drinks, in face
of the Maine liquor law. '"Wo are all for
the Maine law," -said a man to Mr. M'Hea,
'but we are agin its enforcement,"
Tho brewers ia Philadelphia produce
COO (KM) barrels of malt liquor anuually,
uiviug employment to nearly one hundred
thousand man, and consuming in tho uiau
uf icture a million uud a half bushels of
barley of the value of Sfl 10 per btibhel.
Alu is a healthy liquor, and lager beer is a
ftvorite beverage, particularly of our large
German population. Tlio question of li
cense or- uo license is to be submitted to
the citizens of Philadelphia nt the next
general election, and if tlio vote is ngainst
license, theti the city will bo under a pro
hibitory liquor law during tho whole ceu
teiiuial celebration, to winch wo have in
vited the wholy country. On the 4th of
July, 1 1 ill, every patriot drank to tho in
deiendance of the thirteen Males. Shall
it bo that o.. tho fourth day of July, 1S70,
all we can lawfully oiler to our guests ou
this great anniversary will ho a glai-s of
Schuylkill water seasoned with a lump of
Knickerbocker ice V
I a in. a strong believer .in temperance ;
for twenty-Iivo years of my lilu I drank
nothing but water, but a dangerous illness
made a strong stimulant an absolute ne

JUDGE SUARSWOOD'S DISSENT.
After the dissenting opinion of Chief
Justice Head, Judge hilars wood made tho
following remarks from the bench :
1 concur iu the opinion that has just been
read, aud I do not know that I have any
thing to add. The tesult of all tho autho
rities on this subject, which I don't under
stand to bo denied. Is that it is uot com po
tent for the Legislature to delegate tho law
making power. Tho point of discussion
seems to turu upon what is a law.
It is clear there are a great many things
which tho Legislature can do. and which
it is iu tho habit of doing, aud which con
stitute acts of the legislature, which iu the
sense of Parker vs. the Commonwealth are
not laws. There are avgood many acts of
executive administration which they can
delegate to tho courts, or lo the municipal
corporations, or to the people of the diller

supremo power of tho Stnto, cmnmnndinir
what is right and prohibiting what is
wrong.
JS'ow I think no ono would -doubt if tho
Legislature wcro to submit to the people
of a county or township, or ward, the ques
tion whether murder should be punished
by imprisonment only, nnd let tho people
vote "capital punishment" or "no capital
putiishmont," that would ho a law, and tho
Legislature would not delegate it to the
people. Docs a law such as tho ono before
us diller from this t Is it any less a rule
of civil conduct than that would bo It
seems to nie that tho question or whether
there shall be license or no licenso is a rule
of civil conduct, commanding what is right
and prohibiting what is wrong. It leaves
to the people to decide what is right or
wrong.
The cases that aro cited ns overruling
Parker vs. the Commonwealth are not of
the character to which I have referred;
they are mere acts of executive adminis
tration. It was left to the people to deter
mine by vote where the county sent should
be. That could have been left to the coun
ty commissioner to determine, or to the
courts, or the people.
.Nj the question of suhcriptions to rail
road stock. It is not a law. So whether j
part of the surrounding country shall bo
consolidated into tho city, so with the lo
cation of public buildings. So the school
tax might have been left to tho school
directors. These are all acts of executive
administration, and therefore not law, in
the sense in which tho term is used iu
Parker vs. Tho Commonwealth, and iu the
sense in which it was decided thai the Le
gislature has no power to delegate its au
thority, as I think is done in this case,.
A Young Lady I'uriuer.
Tho Prairie Fanner eiya: We Moly had
the pleasure of "interviewing" a Miss A.,
of Illinois, who for some years past lias
been engaged iu carrying ou a farm of 120
acres ; and, deeming her example worthy
of imitation iu these days of uuheallhful
and lackadaisical womanhood, we have
made a few notes for the benefit of our
readers.
Miss A. was a teacher, but at the limo
of her commencing fanning was a student
in a leading young ladies' seminary of the
cotiulry. ller father died, leaving a widow,
nnd, we believe two daughters and a boy,
of whom Miss A. was the eldest, and the
boy a lad often or a dozen years of age.
The farm was, wo believe, encumbered
with it considerable amount of debt. Slid
found the health of her mother, who was
endeavoring to manage the farm with hired
help, failing, and concluding iwiaihc express
ed it, that she would rather keep her moth
er than get a uood education, she left tho
seminary in IStiS nnd commenced farming.
The farm nt that time consisted of eighty
acres of homo farm, about half of which
was in cultivation, nnd most of which was
bottom land, rich, but was more or less
Bttliject to overllow, aud at a little distance
were forty acres more, nil in cultivation.
The home farm had a pretty good house,
but the barn had recently been burned, and
tile fences were not good. Twelve acres
had been planted to apples of tfood variety.
She had one horse, aud got the loan of
another from a friend, who also aids and is
nided in turn by lending implements, &a.
She has now a good team of her own rais
ing, besides a horse that does duty in the
market-wagon.
So she went to work with the aid of her
then little brother, and to some extent of
her mother and sister, who also took charge
ofthe housekeeping. They hired but. little
labor, and as far us possible, did their owtt
work. She learned to do nearly all kinds
of work. She does not plow much hut she
can do it. She took out 50 to 100 slumps
in' one year with spade und axe. at the same
time assisting her brother who was drilling
wheat. She bound and shocked wheat,
aud can drive team well. She can use the
axo pretty well ; formerly she could chop
belter than her brother, but now he chops
ns well nsshe can herself, and she tints less
of it. She wears a gymnastic suit-whru at
home, nnd at work, a broad brimmed hat,
giovcg, sud boots made to order. Six;
wishes to look as well us other girls, and
thus protects herself from tho exposure re
sulting from out-door labor. She likes the
open air life aud tho out-door work,
und is healthy and strong quite it uiuricle
of vigor from tho modern young lady's
standpoint.
Most of the home farm is cultivated in
corn though she has 8 acres in grass and
12 in orchard. She raised 23 acres of win
ter wheat in 1S72. It was a line crop, but
she lost from 3 to " acres from the failure
of tho man she had engaged to cut it in
time. Even then, wilh scarce and iuctli
cient labor by that feble class of men that
are always willing to take advantage of
those who cannot help themselves, it cost
her l?rt0 to harvest and thresh tho wlseat.
Vet rho got 450 bushels of wheat, weighing
02 pounds to the bushel.
Tho young orchard boro a good deal of
fruit in 1872, nnd sho sold 100 barrels of
slimmer apples, ami has 1"0 bushels of
apples now in the cellar. She tok moSt of
the apples to market herself, selling some
of tl.em us low as 75 ceuts per barrel, uud
some us high as 1.

hospital for the indigent sick, and oiphans.
Ou Tuesday evening, Mr. Hopkins noti

Cultivation of Asparagus. In an
swer to an inquiry by a correspondent re
garding the cultivation, caro and markel
iug of asparagus, the lS'ow York Tnbune
replied as follows :
"Asparagus can be crown on any cha
racter of soil, from a blowing sand" to a
pure clay, when tho ground is properly
prepared before sottiug tho roots, but other
tiling being equal, a deep sandy loam, free
from stones, will produce the largest spears
and tho largest yield. This is a well estab
lished fact. Tiie method of underlaying
a bed with a body of stones is antiquated,
nnd the important step is to thoroughly un
derdrain the spot selected. Tho cheapest
and most cU'eclual way to do this is by cut
tingopen drains 3 leet deep and 23 feet
apart, und using two inch solo tire, cam
fully Jointed, so that when thoso drained
are tilled iu no dirl can find its way into
the pipes. The next best material is nar
row hemlock boards, nailed together in tho
shape of tho letter A. These, laid ou
smooth bottom, with enough of fall to carry
tho water, will last a long lime. In raising
aspar&gus, either fur home consumption or
market, carhuess is an important conside
ration. To insure this select a piece of
ground that will get the full benetit of tho
morning and mid-day sun. From such a
spot, protected from the north winds, you ,
can begin to cut asparagus ten or twelve
days earlier in spring. Beloro selling tho j
plants, loosen and mellow tho soil lo a 1
depth of IS lo 20 inches, beiug sure to Itecp
the surface soil on toj).
"Iu loosening the soil in this way, tarn
under plenty of well-rotted yard manure.
No fear need bo culertaiued of getliug tho
bed too rich ; tho more manure ia used the
more productive ihe bed will turn out.
When the surface is made level and smooth
by raking oil' tho rubbish, sloiirft, &c., then i
open trcatches tiiuo inches deep, leu or 1
twelve wide, und three feet apart. For
garden culture set the asparagus roots I
eieliteeu inches apart in these trenches. I
Every root should bo drawn out to its full '
length, aud at nearly right angles with the
crown. When placed in this way, cover !
these roots with five or six inches of tho :
best surface soil, pressing this soil firmly i
around the roots wilh tho feet. When (in-1

asparagus roots aro ol'teu injured from this
cause, especially when set out in the fall.
It makes but little diller nee whether a bed
is made in spring or autumn ; a great deal
more depends upon tho preparation of tho
soil than the time of plauting. One thing,
however, should be borne iu mind, and
thai is, it will he time nut money ihrowu
away to plant out roots mora than two
years old. teiroug one-year old roots are
the best ; next best are two-year old roots,
aud older roots aro ouly good fir forcing
wudcr glass.
" Both the quality nnd size of tho spears
will be improved by giving tho beds a top
dressing of common salt every other spring,
or onco a year if the salt can bo bought at
a moderate price. Cutting is ono of tho
nice jobs. A careless baud will ofien de
stroy a third to a half of the eutire crop,
nnd market gardeners aro always particu
lar to select the proper person for this work.
The best shaped knife is ouu wilh a blade
eight inches loug and ono and a half inch
wide, rounded at the point. The knife is
run down almost perpendicular alongside
the spear, cutting it two inches below ibo
eutfaco with the point of tho knife, being
careful not to injure any young spears not
above the surface. Wheu cut the aspara
gus may be throwa on a cellar tloor, where
it may bo left for a couple of days without
injury before bunching, if wheu bunched it
is put into pure cold water for two or three
hours before shipping to market. If tho
spears are bundled us soon ns cut, tho
buuehes may bo kept covered in cold water
for two or three days, nnd when takeu out
the asparagus will look fresh and plutup."
Hints. about Work. Tho Ameticau
Aijricidtiiruliit for March contains some
practical nnd reasonable hints lo agricultu
rists, in which it says :
Make up your mind what you iulend to
i do. .Sit down aud count the cost. Do not
nnderlaUe more than you can perform.
' It is unwise to coinmeuce work that you
are uot able to finish in due season. Many
j a farmer loses more by getting behind baud
; with his spring woik than would buv ano
ther team, and pay Ihe wages for a man for
a year. This has, ut any rate, been iruo
more than once in my owu experience.
Have you not found il so V
What theti shall wo do'f Shall we buy

we can help it. It would probably bo bet
ter to plow less laud. This is a poiut each
farmer must decide for himself. All we can
say is, do not get behind hand with your
work. Almost anything is better than this.
The St .mnns do ut Vhanije. We are quite
upt to blame the weather. Aud yet il is a
matter of fact that there is no change iu our
! climate. There have always been wet nnd
cold years aud years of grout drought. Wo
should be prepared for them.
L'nth nlrniniiig ou till wet soils is indis
pensable to ral success in farming. A well
drained and well worked heavy soil is rare
ly tjlccted by drought. Every enteiprising
farmer will '.!
more or less draining every
spring. II no onco commences to under
drain, and dins thu work well, ho will not
bo likely tp stop until lui has made all his
laud drv.
Jb-ilrrsinj Ortss Limit is a grand
means of ameliorating the elfect of drought.
Spread the manure us curly us possible in
the spriug, nnd if you hare a Thomas bar
row, iikO it fivciv to break up (he manure.
Oo over the iarm ns soon as tho snow
melts in ibo spring. You will see many
thioL's that need to bo done. Make a note
of them aud prepare to do them at the right
time.
Lft off Surfuct Wafer. This is always
in order. Fanners will let it off wheat, but
very few ever think of letting it off bate

Irrigating (Vrusa Land at Ibis season is a
Cipital thing provided tho laud rests on a
dry, porous subsoil, or is underdrniued.
But irrigating low, wet lantl will do n
good. Belter get off all tho water you can,
instead of getting more on to it. .
dJrain firtt nm? then Irrigate. This will
double or treble your grows crop and uot
injure the quality. There aro many streams
that might be easily dammed up and tho
water diverted over acres of grass-land at n
small cost. It is a great mistake lo sup
pose that irrigation is only necessary in dry
weather. It docs great good on grass-land
early in the sprin. Try it.
.Sow yriins and elorertceil on Vrhtoft early in
tho spring, unless yon propose to harrow
tho wheat. It is seldom that the seed is
injured by tho frost. Do not spare thu
seed, and bo careful not to miss any land.
Piaster maybe sown at any time when
' most convenient ; from one to two bushels
per ncre is enough, it will uo no gooa on
low. wet laud.
Urpuir-the fences. This can bo done nt
times when other work is not pressing say
after a rain, when tho ground is too wet ti
plow.
l'ihwj Jntre should be eTmio, if done at
all, early in thu spring. Many farmers
prefer to draw their manuro out of tho
yards directly on the land. We will not
nrgue the .question here. All we say is, d
something wilh tho manure. Either uso it
now or keep for future use, but do uot keep
it spread over tho premises.
Sweet Potato Vines for Stock.
A Mississippi correspondent of Our Home
Journal says : "As tho general opinion in
regard to the curing of the sweet potato
vino for hay, or feed for stock, is that they
have to bo dried on a fence or rack, and
not on the ground, please permit me tr
give my mode of curing the vines. After
a good frost, or at the proper digging tin),
I go over the field with a sharp hoe and
cut the vines looso on the top of each row J
put a good, stout horse or mule to a tarn
l!nw, und let him walk in the furrow, gath
ering all the vines I can cm the plow ; drivo
to the end of tfre row, empty my load, and
return to the sume furrow until I have ob
tained nil the vines, and so on until the
field is gone over. Shako out the vines,
and spread them evenly ou thu ground ;
turu them over once a day, and ifyouhava
good sun you can take them iu on tha
third day, or they may remain out until tho
fourth day, then house them. Milch cows
will give more and richer milk fed upon
well cured potato vines thati they will fcd
upon ihe same bulk of the best crab-grass
hay. I have cured vines in this way, and
my cows did eat them as well, if not better,
than they did the brst farm-grass hay. Let
