The Lasdof Contraries In Australia the !
north is the hot wind, and the south the cool ;
the westerly the most unhealthy, and the east
the most salubrious ; it is summer with the
colonists when it is winter at homo, and the
barometer is considered, to rise before bad
weather, and to fall before good ; the swans
are black,' and the eagles aro white ; the mole
lays eggs, and has a duck's bill ; the kangaroo
(an animal between the deer and the squirrel)
has five claws on his fore paws, three talons on
his hind legs, jet hops on his tail. There is
a bird (melliphaga) which has a broom in its
month instead of a tongne ; a fish, one half be
longing to the genus raia, and the other that
of squalns. The cod is fonnd in the rivers,
and the perch in the sea ; the valleys are cold
and the mountain tops warm ; the nettle is a
lofty tree, and the poplar a dwarfish shrub ;
the pears are of wood, with the stalks at the
broad' end; the cherry grows with the stone
outside ; the fields are fenced with mahogany;
the humblest bonse is fitted tip with cedar, and
the myrtle plants are burnt for fuel ; the trees
are without fruit, the flowers without scent,
and birds withont son?. Such is the land of
Australia.
Fishixo for a Bcrgxar. A few nights ago
a lawyer's cflice in Chicago was entered by a
burglar, wbo carried off several valuable arti
cles of clothing, but who in the hurry of exit
dropped a pair of boots in the yard. The po
lice detective, who was detailed to catch the
burglar, tied a fish iine to one of the boots, tho
other end passing through a hole into the of
fice. He then cut a hole through the blind
and commenced fishing with his boot bate
After a long time had passed without so much
as a nibble, he was rewarded by a vigorous
bite, and springing out of the door, collared a
fellow trying to carry ofl the boots. He ad
mitted his guilt, and was committed, in default
of bail, to take his trial.
A Test of Spiritualism was recently made
at Xew Bedford, Mass., which we commend to
the believers in the "new revelation." The
son of Mr. Wade was supposed to be lost with
a wrecked ship some years ngo. The father,
a full believer in the truth of mediumship be
tween mortals and immortals, enjoyed commu
nications with the spirit of his loved and lost
son. The son, through a medium, informed
him that he "was happy among the saints, and
that a crown of glory was in reserve for him
self." Mr. W., however, was 'taken all aback'
a few days since by the arrival of his son in
the form of flesh and blood, and his relation
of wondrous escapes by field and flood. The
medium mizzled.
A Verdict as is a Verdict. A Mobile, Al
abama, paper says that an inquest was recently
held in that city, on the body of a man who
died from taking an over dose of vegetable
pill?. On opening the body, the interior was
found to be one huge cabbage, but dead, to its
core, from confinement and want of water a
beverage which the patient, unfortunately nev
er.,, drank. The jury returned a verdict of
"quits." "Quits, gentlemen!" exclaimed the
dismayed Coroner "never heard of such a
thing ; what do you mean 1" "Why," replied
the foreman, "we find that if the cabbage kill
ed the man, the man most certainly killed the
cabbage, and if that ain't quits, blow me !"
Ccre of Bronchitis. One of our clearest
minded and most reliable friends informs us
that common mullen leaves, smoked in a new
pipe one in which tobacco has never been
used is a sure and certain cure for bronchitis.
The remedy is simple and innocent, and with
in reach of all. Recollect that this is not tho
jemcdy of a retired physician whose sands of
life have nearly run out, but is given to us by
one who has tried it himself, and seen it tried
with others, and has never known it to fail in
effecting a permanent cure. The remedy is
simple, and we can certainly discover no harm
likely to arise from a trial. Scientific .imer.
A Wide- awakz "Lad." A lady" was de
tected, a few days since, in Cincinnati, Ohio,
pocketing a package of gloves in a store.
When charged with the theft, she burst into
tears and tendered a $20 bill in payment. The
merchant took but $5, and gave her $15
change, but on counting the cash at night that
$20 bill was found to be a counterfeit. 'Plian
cy the pheelinks' of that storekeeper.
The Whiskey Market at Salt Lake city is
flourishing. The article is retailed at twenty
fivo cents per drink. A barkeeper purchased
$75 worth of whiskey in the States, and sold
it at Salt Lake for $750. Tbo only drawback
upon trade is tho fact that the customers at
the bar fill their glasses full when they drink.
"Isn't your hat sleepy V inquired a wag, of
a gentleman with a shocking bad one on his
head. "Why so ?" inquired the gentleman.
"Why, because I think it is a long time since
it had a nap." Exit wag in a hurry, narrowly
9capiag a demonstration of something in the
boot line from the irritated gentleman.
It was done when it was begun ; it was done"
when it was half done, and yet wasn't done
when it was finished. 2ow what was it?
Tiaiotby Johnson courted Susan Dunn. It
was Dunn whon it was begun, it was Dunn when
it was hall doue, and yet it wasn't Dvxs when
finished for it was Johnson.
"Oh, Mr. Hill," said one of the Rev. Row
land's hearers, "how is it that you say such
out-of-the-way things in your sermons?"
"Ah," said the eccentric divine, "because you
aro such out-of-the-way sinners."

f-A CARD FROM DR. JAMES 31. JAR.
I RETT, OF THE NEW-YORK LUNG IN
L FIRMARY. My connection for the past eight
v-ars wun me aoove institution, as ChuT Physi
cian, and a twelve years' courseof sterul v.I,.v..t'i.,.
to the Cure of Pulmonary Consumption and its
Rinurea uiscases. together with my unrivalled op
portunities and advantage of natholofieul
aided not a little by a perfect system of Medical
Inhalation has enabled me to "arrive at a deci
sive, direct, and successful course of treatment for
ine positive and radical cure of all diseases of the
Throat, Lungs, atid Air-passnges. Bv Inhalation,
the vapor and curative properties of medicines are
directly addressed to the diseased organsof the in
tegument. I do not advise tbe use of Medical In
halation of any kind, to the exclusion of general
iiemmciii , ana aunougn i consider it a useful ad
juvant in the proper management of those fearful
and often fatal diseases, vet I deem it virv np-.
sary that each patient should have the benefit of
oom general ana local treatment. The success of
my ireaimeni in the above diseases, nnd the hi"h
jiisiuuuon over wnicu 1 nave so
long had the honor to presido, are too well known
to need any eulogy or comment from me. At the
solicitation of many private and professional
friends, through whose philanthropic aid the above
vuoi .ijr nun ueen long nna liberally supported and
after due consideration, 1 have concluded to make
such arrangements as will bring the benefits of my
experience and treatment within the reach of all,
and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those on
ly who entered the Infirmary, or who were able to
visit me at my office. Hoping therefore that the
arrangement will give entire satisfaction, both to
my professional brethren and the public T would
respectfully annonncc in conclusion, th.it
now le consulted personally or by letter, on all dis
caws as auovo. nna mat the medicines, the same as
used in the Institution, prepared to suit each in-
InliaJinsr Vannrs. ATeriiesrJ lh-
lers. Arc, ire , will be forwarded by express to any
part of the United States or the Canadas. Tkiims
My terms of treatment by letter are as follows
viz: 512 per month for each patient, which will
include medicine sufficient for one month's use;
also, Inhaling Vapor, and an Inhaling Apparatus!
Payment as follows: $ to be paid to Express A
gent on receipt of the box of Medicine, and tbe
balance S6 at the expiration of the month, if the
patient be -cured oris entirely satisfied with tbe
treatment. Patients, by giving a full history of
their case, and their svmptouis in full can h i--.t.
ed as well by letter as by personal examination
Patients availing themselves of Dr. Jarrett's treat
ment may rely opon immediate nnd permanent
relief, as he seldom has to treat a n..v
days. Letters for advice promptly answered For

GREAT DISCOVER V OF THE AGE.
IMPORTANT TO TOBACCO CHEWEUS.
Dr. Gust'tr Unnard's Taste Restorative Troche,
the Great StiL&titute. for Tohacco. It is a well
known and incontrovcrtablo fact that the use of
Tobacco is the promoting cause of many of the
most severe MENTAL AND PHYSICAL disorders
to which the race of man is subject, as cureful an
alasis and long and painful experience have clear
ly proven that it containscertain narcotic and poi
sonous properties most dangerous in their effocU.
which by entering into the blood derange the
functions and operations of the Heart, causing ma
ny to suppose that organ to be seriously diseased.
TOBACCO affects also she entire nervous system,
manifesting itself as all who havo ever used tho
noxious weed will bear testimony in La.-situ.lc,
Nervous Irritability. Water Brash. Dyspepsia, and
many other disorders of a similar character. The
-Ta.-te Restorative Troches" are designed to coun
teract these baneful influences, and have proved
completely successful in a multitude of eases, and
wherever used. Being harmless in themselves
they csert a beneficial effect upon the eutire sys
tem, restoring the Taste which has become vitia
ted or destroyed by great indulgence, complete
ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick
ling sensation of tbe Throat which are always
consequent upon abstaining from the use of To
bacco, and by givirg a healthy tone to the Stom
ach, invigorate the whole system.
Persons who are irretrievably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives,
should use theso Troches immediately and throw
off the injurious and unpleasant habit of Tobacco
Chewing.
These Troches or Lozenges are put up in a con
venient and portable form at the low prie of 50
cents per Box. A liberal discount to the Trade.
Prepared solely by the undersigned to whom
all orders should he addressed.
