In the manufacture of tobacco, mo lasses, licorice, paste, a decoction of rigs and glycerine are used to impart a sweet taste. Common salt and other salts are used for flavoring, and nitrate of potash or soda is added to increase its combus tibility. Anise and other aromaties ai e added for their flavor, and smoking to bacco has its odor, if not its taste, im proved by the introduction of cascariila bark. Cabbage and other leaves are . often used to adulterate chewing to bacco. In cold weather, horses which have been driven rapidly, or have become heated from exertion, throw off great quantities of steam or vapor. The reason of this is that the heat thrown off from the body on coming in contact with the colder air is condensed in the form of vapor. The principle is the same as that which causes the windows of a close room to become covered with ice on a cold day in winter. The warm air of the room becomes condensed on the cold glass, and it is congealed in the form of ice. Trevious to the time of Queen Eliza beth stairs were all constructed on a circular plan, and were called turret or corkscrew stairs. During the sixteenth ana seventeenth centuries staircases with wide, Etraight flights were first in troduced, and were made the leading features in mansions of the Elizabethan style. They had usually massive oak balusters with carved panels and pen dants. Staircases of this descriDiion are still in common use, but are lighter in style, light cast-iron being used ill s' ead ol oak baiuslers.

With a view to Impart some useful Information on the construction and preservation of the sain, ai-alp, and hair, and Ih proper treatment ol them when dis eased, 1 have here condensed to a popular form such Information as Is most dolred. THE CONSTItCCTIOIT OF THE SKIN. The skin Is composed of two lasers, which maw 1 e separated from each other by the action of a b Isler. The thia portion which is raised up by the blls'er ia called the roarf skin, the cuticle, or the epidermis : that which remains In connection with the body is the sensitive skin, the cutis, the d rrna, or th true skin. Kach ha separate d tiei lo perform. The scarf skin la horny and insensible, ami serves as a sheath to protect the more tenMUve rkin under it. Were the scarf skin taken off we oould not bear to have anything touch us. The derm or true skin, and Its elands, oil tubes, etc, are the seat of all cuta neous diseases. THE OIL AND SWEAT GLAND9. That the skin may be pliable and healthy I1 1 neee ary to have It oiled every day ; and for this ibe Crei tor has wisely provided by placing In the true skin rma'l glanils and tube, whose oflice It i to prep n e nd pour out upon the surface the proper amount of oil. On some parts of ihe bo ly they do not exist, but are abmdsnt on the face, nose, era, htad, eyelids, etc. They produce the war of the ears, and on the brad they open into the sheath of the h: Ir, and fur nish It with nature's own hair oil or pomade. When the akin is healthy these little vcfsels are alnnys at work, and constantly responding to the demands made upon them. O nscquently no person should be afraid to wash thoroughly every day with soap and water, lest, as the "Huston Mtdical Journal" once taught, the skin he Injured by having ths oil removed from It. FREQUENT WASHINGS WITn PURE BOAP (free from caustic alkalies) and lukewarm water, f al lowed by brisk rubbing with a coarse towel, will do more to preserve Ibe healthy acnon of the oil glands and tubes, upon w hich depends a clear and wholesome complexion, than all the cosmetics In the world. So important is the free and rxrfect action of the aweat and fat or oil glands in the preservation of the gene ral ueaim, as wen ss tne special cond't'oi or the skin that particular attention to them will be re warded by increased 1 hysical health. They discharge upon the surface of the bodv abiut two and one-half puunds of matter per dav, anil their Importance In the purification of the blood and fluids ol the body is so great that were they closed by an Impervious cuat ing, like i ubber or oiled silk, death would soon ensue. THE GREAT SKIN AND 6CALP DISEASES. But bsd as are minor forms ot skin diseases, they sink into insignificance when compared with the eieat (kin and scalp diseases with which thousands are af flicted during their whole lives. Thu the reader may knew more about them, tbe principal allectiona a-e here nsmed, omitting such as are symptoms of consti tutional diseases, like measles, rash, etc Tbe most Important are salt rh?ura or eczema, tetter, ring worm, psoriasis, impetigo, leprosy, lichen. i.ruric. barbers' itch. Jackson itch, bakers' itch, ground itch, sca'd bead, and dandruff. Towering above all others In extent. In duration, (n suflerlng, is ECZEMA, commonly called salt rbeutn. Wilson divides tt Into twelve species, and others into many more: but it la sufficiently clear to the average reader, and will be recognized by its small watery blister, about the etze of a pinueid, wherever seen. Prurigo, impetigo, and psoriacia are but little behind salt rheum iu tbe sutler Ing they cause. Bcald head is another obstinate atlec- tlon, delylng ail remedies, destroying tho hair, and producinggrc.it misery and sutT-ring. Tte scalp, like tbe skin, is subject to i a It ihcuui, letter, daudritl. and other eruptive and scaly diseases, which generally ueairoy me uair joiucies, aua proauce perinaatnt baldness, THE TREATMENT of diseases of the skin or scalp has been for centuries bssed upon tbe mistaken theory that they are en'irely due to tome impuiity of the tlooi. No spec-al at tention has ever been directed to the important p.rt tbe sweat snd fat glands play in the pro, aauoa and maintenance of disease. It is no unjust reflection upon tbe mediral prof u sion to say that its efforts in the cure of skin dis eases have been a ftilure. What with iniaten theo ries, poisonous remedies, and blind adherence to methods and practices originating in ignorun e and superstition, salt rheum, scald hi ad, and psorius s flourish 'and increase upon s stems shattered by tbe e pious use, to'.b internal and external, of intrcury, arsenic, zinc, and lead. For centuries It has been the popular notion that diseases of the skiu and scalp must be cured, 11 cured at all, by purifying th' blood. Admitting that this is partly true, what ha been the m.tliod or what the remedies by which it was sought to be accomplished t MERCURY AND ARSENIC. Putting aside the sens-less "sareaparillj," "dock " and "dandelion" "blood purifiers," and con ider-ng only those remedies that have receiv d the sanction of physicians, hospitals, snd college', we fin I that mercury and arsenic are tbe only medicinal egenti of to-day, as they were hundreds of years ago w hich are regarded by the "regular" aa having specific mtdical properties fur the purification of the hood, and hem e the only remedies adap'.ed to the treatment ol skin and scalp diseases. XI1K 1UCE TUtOUY, But a little light Is b;ln( throw) upon the darWsa that has surrounded the intellec t of the ta-t. To a few German und French plmiciaus a"d speili lsta we owe what true progres we ara making at tbo present lime in the cure ol o'jst n te atleciions of tlio i(li ar.d seal i. 'lh-y teacti ard prove, (I) th-t dis eases of the skin and scilp are caused by a derange ment of the secretory un1 excretory tube.'! and ve-sela of tbe true skl i ; and (:') that such di ess s or of fe tions ar aigravatei an 1 umiutiiiied by polso-ious fluids containing the virus of scrofula, maiurla, or contagions disease, which ore discharged from the blood and e rci ati g fluids upon the tkfn tuiougu the aweat ai d fat glands. From Hies facts they suc cessfully mailt id n thit akin dijbcs cannot be cured solely by intern.,1 remedies, nr sjklv by exte.nal remedies, but by a Judicious u-e of both. Th-ie af fections aie i.ot wholly cuued ty Impuritit ol Ihe blood and circulating fluids, noi ue they due entire y to a diseased condition of the twtat and fat giai.ds, tubes, yetsels, aud ceils of Hie true skin, but to a peculiar and inseparable coudiuon of both. For It you treat the ot.e to tbe neglect of tbe other, no progiess la made; but with attention to both at tho same time, snd the use ol such remedies a I can here recommend, a cure is possible in nearly every case. "WHAT WE WANT," aid a extinguished authority on the skin, " what we most f:nea-ly deaire In order to cure obtlnat? skin and a alp alVocticns, are three great rettedles, with a many apecitio properties, namely : "1. An internal remedy hiss-S5Idv cathartic, tonic, aud alteiatlve properties, which will enable it lo expel through the natural purlners of the bodv, viz , the lungs, liver, kidney, b we t and skin, the cnstltutlonal poison which duals in the blood and circulating fluids of ihe body. "z. An extern!, unchangeable ppllcat'on of Jelly consistence that may am-bl inflauimatiou or Ir ritation and deiiroy fungus or paiuiuo growth ; and, 'a. An emollient and healing op, free from bauatic alkalies and Irritating properties, for cleans ing diseased aurfacee, and partaking, in a milder form, tbe medicinal pioperliea of the external appll cation. V 1th three such remedies as I conceive it pos sible to prepare, but which I do not now know to exist, Iw ill venture to assert that ninety per centum of the skin diseases lu existence may be permanently ciatd." iv i THE USUAL REMEDIES FAILURES. If I have appeared severe uon the medical profes sion, I have uol been unjustly so towards physicians who sdlure to practice at variance with reason aud common -sense, and, withal, lameolatde failures. X here aesert tliat uo ointment, salve, cerate, lotion or compound, for external application, nor alterative, or Llood puutler," for interna! use, to be fouud in the materia medic ol tbe schools and colleges of medl f'lte, and there aie thousands of tbeiii. will oer , tojhiy cue a cos of chronic salt locum, pirilt, or ifprosy. 1 hvs tried them wilh all tbe care an.i evprrlenee ugi-sted by a llbe-al education, but ith unsatisfactory result a to specillo curative propirtles. HOPE FOR TnE AFFLICTED. Henr, when Messrs. Wins A Porrsa, Chemist and lruggists of Boston, Mass., Informed me that or eight years they had been experimenting with medicinal agents, and bad obtalr ed mostly fro ii sub stances never leiore used lo med clne, ind by a ro ress original with themselves time great remedies, which they believed lo be an Infallible cure for every kind of skin, scalp, snd blood disease, from salt ihcuui to dandruff, w hether caused by a scrofulous or disease-tainted blood, or by a morbid condition of the ;lat.ds, tubes, vessels and cells of the true skin, or both, I wss gratified beyond measure. As oy Hie has been snd is devoted to the treatment of akin and s alp diseases, to which I have given much study en I attention 1 e.gerly embrsced the opportunity ailor.bd ne by Messre. Wiih A I'orraR, to make thorough tent of these remedies in my practice, determined, l! successful. o give them neb publicity as their metlts entitled them to. 'I bis 1 now do after two yenis of extraordinary success with them, with the object of theieby lessening, as far as in tny power, the great Bulla ing caused b the disease under con.aulention. THE FIRST. , The name given to the flrstt of these great remedle Is Culicira, from etfi. the akin, and rum, a ruie, a skin cure. In practice, I foun I it possessed won derful euiatlv properties, as they exist In no other remedies of the day. it is rniinly unlike anvthinif for extetnal application that I Imvn ever seen lielore. it is of telly consistence, fiee from grease, ol s or fata and does not contain a pjriiol - ol deleterious or unwholesome matter, and is so ermily applied that no irritation or pain ia caused by it application to raw ay1 Inflamed surface. Cutlcura when used as directed. Is wonderfully al pled to soothe and heal the mast inflamed sur face, to allay itchlnga and irritation, that h-ivo l-een the ttrture of a lifetime, lo destroy lingua or untmt ural growth on the skin and scalp, to heal ulcers and scrofulous sores, to cleanse snd purify the pores of tho skin and restore to healthy and rogsilar action tt"j oil glands, tubes, and cells, upon whose -rt. v-t action depend the preservation of a healthy skin unl restoration when diseased. It will not become raucid, or spoil on expesure in any climate. It will I aa fresh, Irngrant, soothing and healing fifty year hence as it it to-day. Contrast thia w lib Ihe norrible salve and ointments of the present time I THE SECOND. the Cutlcura Medicinal Toilet Soap, receives It char actrltic rame from the remedy to which it owe It valuable healing and useful properties, tt la free from cau-tlc alkallea, and ia of a delicate, ratu ral arrecn color. Its emollient, soothing, and bea ing .iction la the same as Cutlcura In modilied lonn.. Aside ftom its medicinal properties, it is mere valued as a toilet, bath, and nursery sanative than any otl ley soap. It clesnsea. sooibes, whitens, and beautifies I be skin, snd is a natural pn yentlve of injury to the con p lex ion and hands from the heat of summer and the c bills ot winter. An ounce ot prevention Is nowhere rewarded with more pound ol cure than lo the care of the akin, and no re neJy or method is more appropriate- than the Cutter Soap. It dissolves away undue nxiubi tfon of greasy matter from the oil glands, which causes tbe skin to shine, prevents clogging of tbe pore and tubes, and stimulates the circulation ol tho blo.-.d through the smsll blood vessel?, i living color, freshness, and beauty lo tbe complexion, inn ply repaying every moment of car. This so p is also specially prepared f r sbiving, and Is called Cuticuru Medicinal bhavlng boa p, and will be fo und of great voJue by gentlemen aulleilng from ten der, InQamed, or diseased skin. .i.e. i.iii.lJ great r.oy submlt'ed lo mo Is called the Cutler ira Resolvent, because of its intimate relation to Cut cu rn. In the cure of skin and scalp diseases. Of all Jl.o remedies for the nurlflcatlcn of the blood and circu lating fluids tbst I have ever tested, none approach 1 1 stieclile medical action the wonderful properties of tie Resolvent. In forty tnintttt sfter taking the first dose It may be detected by chemical snalyals in the saiWe. sweat, fat, and flood, showing that it has enter eu ths blood and circulat ng llu ds and nude the mtlre circuit of the human Isbyilutli many times. Chemical tests show It to be present In the water with which tho patient has bathed on riFing in tbe morning, vbicli proves conclusively that it has entered and become a part of the circulating fluids, eraM'ng it to traverse very dlsessed ceil, tube, snd vessel of tbe sslc, md leave Its wholesome constituents ution the surface ol the body. But It dors more than this. It Is a power ful purifying agent and liver stimulant It neut111li7.es and resolves away bloi d poisons, caused by tho vtrun of scrolula, cancer, canker, main lal or contagious dis eases. It destroya microscopic insects or parasites which In 'est the water and air r.f malailnl regions, and breed many terms of skin dl-eases. It regulates the stomach aud bo els, snd perfects digestion so as to ad mit ol a rat Id Increa-e of wholesome tissue and strergth. Hence its power to eliminate from tbe system all the destructive elements that foster and maintain diseases of the blood, skin, and scalp. Having been charmed with tbe results of my analy sis of these great remedies, my next step wss to de monstrate their value In the treatment of the great skin scalp, and bl.od atleciions usually considered incurable. I know that every word I now write WILL AWAKEN nOPE In the breast of many a lifelong sufferer. Can I, In a broad and Christian apiut, without prejudice, without reservation, say to tiosj afflicted, '-Here in these gr at natural remedies, which may be had of any chemist or druggist tor a tilli ng sum, Is a speedy and permanent cure f " Withaj ist sense of the re sponsibilities I assume, I say I can. There does not exist a case of chtonic salt rehuni or eczen a, tell r, rlugworm, pemphigus, psoriasis, leprosy, llcher, prurig -, scald head, d-ndruff, or itching, or scaly eruptions, or humors of the skin, scilp snd Moot, that Cuticura, externally, assisted by the (. uticuba Soap, snd the Kksolvkmt inierna'ly. urey not speedily, permanently, and economically cure, when all other remedies and nit t hod 4 of euro have utterly filled.

During tho last ten yearn I have struggled with great difficult ie?, amoDg which perhaps the most trouble. ome has been tlir nmrmnr rf ,1 .K-to under which the ancient city was ouiirfa. it.

In one of the buried cities I found many statues of Minerva with tho owl's head, whence her name of Glaucopis. In another city were found many jiuages of the divinities. But the most interest ing and important of al discov eries is, of course, tho city of King Priam. Every article found in the ruins of that city bear unmistakable signs of having been destroyed by lire in a timn oi war. mers were discov ered many remains of hvimau bodies in full armor. 1 dug out and cleared away the debris from tho entire wall thit sur rounded the city, and also from all ihe principal buildings. Now I am finish ing a large volume in English descrilj ing with full details all my discoveries and containing 200 illustrations of tho most important of the discoveries.' My Trojan collection is now iu London, dud at the end of this year I ahaJl take to my villa in Athens, which is fireproof, built only of marble and iron. I have received large offers for my collection Irom the United States, England, France and Germany, but I cannot part with it for any money in the world.

In the lat-hionnhlo went divinion of the city there lived n younit ctiuple who were enurnctl to bt married, but ere tho ceremony lind b:-en pi-rfonned the roii tlenmn was taken down with that most loatlisorto of diseases, pmallpox. nnd was convoyed tothepest -lioti'-n. Thither Hie younsr lady followed, and there nbo nursed him back to life but not to one of its preatet-t blessings. The case de veloped into t he dreadful type known ns "conlluent." nnd when tho young lover arose from his couch lie rcalizt d tho doom of desolation entailed upon him lie was stricken blind. And now, says t lie Times, while tho warm sun is waking into vernal beauty park and boulevard, and while tho shade trees are throwing out their umbrageous love liness, a stalwart man, erect and stately still, although destitute of vision and with a face scarred hy tliat fell malady, may be seen walking slowly amid the beauties of tho summer time, and by his side a young girl, upon whom ho leans for guidance, and who is to him "the morn ing star of memory" that cannot fade or faint, or die until tho last dread sum mons make even such sublime devotion vain to preserve a life that must be. without such solace, worth l 'ss and deso late beyond expression.
