The Idea of Equinoctial Storms.
The New Orleans Bulletin denounces it,
and says
Did you ever hear any rean given for Sen-
tcmber and March gales, or as they are called
equinoctial gales, except that the sun then
" crosses the line." And what is this " cross
ing the lino ?" Nothing at all ! Jt is all nom
inal, there is no such thing as ciossing the line.
It is neither more nor less than that the sun on
those days is veitical at noon, on the Equator,
as it is vertical a few days previously, a short
distance to the Northward of it ; and vertical a
few days afterwards, a short distance South
ward of it. It is also vertical inf latitude 23
deg. north on tho 21 si June, and 23 deg. south
on the 21st December, and there is just as
much reason why there should be gales at or
near these two latter days, as on the 21st March,
or the 21sl September. It is true, there are
sometimes severe gales in September, but more

Tall Trees.
Oregon is the greatest lumber country in the
world. Around one mill, within a circle of
three miles, stands timber enough to last a hun
dred years, the mill all the time cutting 6000
feet a day. The trees are from 6 to 10 feet in
diameter, and some of them 300 feet high.
They are felled into a lake, floated to the mill
three miles, sawed by water power, and turned
out at the other side of the mill, whence a ves
sel takes iliem lo California. Wheat, in Ore
gon, averages 65 lbs. a bushel, and Oregon
Flour brings $6 more a barrel at the gold mines
than any other. The number of votes cast in
Oregon, in June, was 943.
We copy the following from a letter from the
Great Salt Lake, published in the Petersville
(Ind.) Eagle. The writer says there is a set
tlement near the Mormon city of runaway ne
groes, carrying on farming. We imagine it
would be difficult for their owners to show a
legal title to that sort of property in that country.
This city is situated in a beautiful valley, 18
miles in width. The houses are principally
built of sun dried bricks, are small, most of
them having only one room. The town is laid
out in squares of ten acres. These squares
are laid off in one acre and a quarter lots,
making 8 rots in one square. These lots cost
the surveying and recording, whtch is $1 25.
The streets aie very wide- the city is about
three miles square. 1 have been over ihe val
ley for 12 or 15 miles a more delightful place
I never saw, and a more productive soil 1 sup
pose canuot be found for wheat. They have a
large field belonging to the town of two thou
sand acres, which is all in one field in con
sequence of the scarcity of timber,, each man
putting up so many rods entities him to so many
acre's in the field. They water their grain by
means of springs, which gush out of the moun
tain side almost without number, ihe heads of
the springs being so high they can conduct
them ,to any part of the valley.
1 saw in my walks, wheat that the settlers
aay will yield 50 bushels to the acre. 1 be
lieve if any wheat will do it this will. It is
about the height of a man's head, and as
thick as it can stand. In this field there is
5,000 acres of wheat, and 1,000 acres of
corn ; ,lhe balance is not cultivated. I saw
places wherea man coyld.cradle 4 miles through
wheat, as high as his head without turning, to
the right or left. They have moro wheat than
they will cut, for the fanners cannot cut ii ;
there is a lot of men about the camps who would
rather skin and traffic round than work for five
dollars per day. They are now in the midst
of harvest. 1 -was .offered five dollars (in gold
dusl) per day to cradle, which goes current
here. There is a settlement 50 miles from
this city, of men owning negiorfi carrying on
farming largely. There are warm f prings here,
which the inhabitants say are very healthy to
bathe in. For a person not used to it, it is
most too warm. On ihe 24th of ihe month
they have a great celebration, it being the day
of the month on whjch the men arrived who
cut out the road. The population of this Val
hy is 6,000
Our Foreign. Relations.
The editor of the Washington Union says
he does not believe that our foreign affairs
have ever been so miserably mismanaged as
since the present administration came fnto
power. The Washington Republic makes
this just and scathing reply :
The Union may well complain of the man
ner in which Mr. Clayton has handled its ' for
eign relations.' During the last administration
they had a good time of it, comparatively epeak
ing. I he king of Prussia had the use of the
U. b. navy yards, in fitti no nut inr o i u n
to keep the rebellious Germans in subjection.
Mr. Uayton put a stop to that business, and of
course was denounced by all the supporters of
the monster spirit of reactionary movement in
Central Europe.
Again, Mr. Buchanan did not deign to notice
M. Poussin'a -first communication upon the
matter of M. Porte's tobacco speculation, and
so the Union's French relations' did not get
into a snarl wnh Mr. Buchanan. Mr. Clayton,
however, treated Mr. Poussin's dispatch with
more consideration and courtesy; and for so
doing, was thanked pretty much as the captain
of the French ship Eugenie acknowledged
Commander Carpender'a generosity in getting
his vessel off the reef of Riso. The Unions

not, the Spanish consul has been held to an
swer before our own tribunals, and if an Amer
ican jury find him guilty of the outrage alleged
against htm, one of the Union's foreign rela
tions' will be apt to do the State some service
in a very secure place.
Indeed, the Union's foreign affairs do not
flourish under Mr. Clayton's management of
the office of Secretary of Stale ; but the for

" Something to thiuk off.
At West Point, our government long ago es
tablished a military school. Young men are
selected from different States every year, sent
there and educated at public expense. Every
cadet that graduates there, costs the United
States' from four to five thousand dollars.
More than four millions of dollars have been
bestowed by the Uuited States upon that insti
tution ; and all for what 1
Well, what then ? Before Washington left
the Presidency, he earnestly recommended
Congress to establish a Board of Agriculture,
or to lake some other measures to foster that
peaceful but leading and important interest.-
They have been since repeatedly urged to lend
ihe strong arm of government to the elevation
and encouragement of that neglected calling
What have they done ? Nothing. Millions
and millions have been expended to learn the

Remarkable Fact.
The Cincinnati Gazette, in an article con
trasting the conduct of a Democratic adminis
iration with that of the Whigs, states the re
markable fact, that during the nine years be
tween 1836 and 1845, when the Democrats
governed Ohio, the State debt was increased
from $956,604 to the enormous sum of $20,
108,515! and that the credit was at a very
low ebb. From March, 1845, to January, 1849,
four years, the Whigs governed the Slate.
During this time the State Debt has been de
creased $1,699,662! and the credit of the
State completely restored. Comment fs unne

To Clergymen, Post Masters, Teachers of
Sabbath Schools, Bool Agents, Students and
Heads of Families, Sear's Pictorial Family

nery. Custumes, Manners, Monuments, &c.
On examination ihe abo?e work will be pro
nounced by every intelligent person, under
whose observation it may come, as one of ihe
most suitable presents for a father to present to

It cures disease without vofhitiu;, purgiriv, sickcuin' "or de

The greaf beauty and superiority of this Sarsaparilla over
all othci Medicines is. while it eradicates disease, it iuvigo
rates the body. It isone of tho very bct
SPRING AND SUMMER MEDICINES
ever known;' it not only purifies the whole system and
strengthens tho perion, but it creates, new, pure and rich
blood , a power possessed by no other Medicine. And in this
lies tho grand secret of its wonderful success. It has pen
formed within the last two years, more than one hundred
thousaud cures of soverc cases of disease; nt least, 50,009
were considered incurable. It has saved the lives of more
than 15,000 children the three past seasons.
100,000 cases of General Debility and want

Dr. Townscnd's Sarsaparilla invigorates the whole system
permanently. To those who have lost their muc.ular energy,

by physical prostration of the ne ous nystem, lassitude, want
of ambition, fainting sensations, premature decay aud decline,

Rheumatism.
Blachoell's Island, Sept. 14, 18-17.
Dr. Toicnstnd Dear Sir : I have suffered terribly for nine
years with the'Rheumatism ; considerable of the time I could
not cat. sleep or walk. I had ihe utmost distrcsxing pains, and
my limbs were terribly swollen. I have used four bottles
of your Sarsaparilla, and they have done me more than
one thousand dollars worth of good, I am so much better
indeed, I am entirely relieved. You are at liberty to ua
this for the benefit of lira afflicted.
Yours, respectfully,
JAMES CUMMINGS.
Fit! Fits!! Fit!!!
Dr. Townsend, not having tested his Sarsaparilla in cases
of Fits, of course, never recommended it, and was surprised
to receive the following from aa intelligent and respectable
Farmer in Westchester County;
" Fordkam, August 13, 1847.
Dr. Toisnscnd Dear Sir: I have a little pirl. seven years
of age, who has been several years afilicted with Fits ; wo
tried almost everything for her, but without success ; at last,
although we could find no recommendation in your circulars
for cases like hers, we thought, as she was in very delicate
health, wo would give her some of your Sarsaparilla. and are
very glad we did, for it not only restored her strength, but sho
has had no return of the Fits, to our preat pleasure and sur
prise. She is fat becoming ruggcil and haalthv. lor whicJiw o
feel grateful. Your., respectfully,

Dr. Townscnd's Sarsaparilla is a sovereizn and speedy cure
for Incipient Consumption, Barreuness, Prolapsus Uteri, or
Falling of the Womb. Costiveness, Piles, Leucorrhiea, or
Whites, obstructed or difficult Menstruation, Incontinence of
Urine, or involuntary discharge thereof, and for the general
prostration of the "system no matter whether the result
of inherent caUMS or causes, produced by irregularity, illness
or accident. Nothing can be more surprising than its in
vigorating effects on the human frame. Persons all weakuest
and lassitude, from taking it, at once become robust and full
of energy under its influence. It immediately counteracts
the nervclcssncss of the frma!e frame, which is the great cause
of Barrenness. It will not be expected of us, in cases of so
delicate a nature, to exhibit certificates of cures performed,
but we can assure the afflicted, that hundreds of cases have
been reported to us. Thousands of cases where families havo
beeu without children, after using a few bottles of this invalua
ble Medicine, have been blessed with fine, healthy offspring.
Grunt SIcssxng to mothers and Children.
It U the safest and most effectual medicine for purifying tho
system, and relieving the sufferings attendant upoti child
birth ever discovered. It strengthens both the mother and
the child, prevents pain and disense, increaes aud enriches
the fiod ; those who have used it, think it i3 indispensa,
ble. It is highly useful both before aud after confinement,
as it prevents diseases attendant upon child-birth in Cos
tivenes?. Piles, Cramps Swelling of the Feet, Despondency,
Moartbnrn. Vomiting, Pain in the Back and Loins. False Pain.
Hemorrhage, and in regulating the secretions and equalizing
the circulation, it has no equal. The great beauty of this
medic:ne is, it is always safe, nnd tha most delicate use it
most successfully, very few- cases require auy other medi
cine, in some a little Castor Oil, or Magnesia is useful. Ex
ercise in the open air, and light food with this medicine, will
Iways secure a safe and easy confinement.
Jleauty and Health.
Cosmetics. Chalk, and a variety of preparations generally
in use, when applied to the face, very soon spoil it of itr
beauiy. They close the pores of the skin, and check the circu
lation, which, when naturti is not thwarted by disease or
powder, or the skin inflamed by the alkalies used in soaps,
beauiifies its own production in the "human face Divine,"
as well as in the gardeu of rich and delicately tinted varie
gated flowers. A free, active and healthy- circulation of the
fluid.-), or the coursing of the pure, rich blood, to the cxtremi
tiosis that which pa ints the countenance in the most exqui
site beauty. , It is thai which imparts the indescribable shades
aud dashes of loveliuets that all admire, but none can de
scribe. This beauty is the offspring of nature rat of poicder
or soap. If there is not a free and hcaHhy circulation, thero
is no beauty. If the lady is fair as driven snow, if she paiut.
and use cosmetics, and the blood is thick, cold and impure,
she is not beautiful. If she be brown or yellow, and there
is pure and active blood, it gives a rich bloom to the checks,
and a brilliancy to their eyes that is fascinating.
This is why the southern, and especially the Spanish ladies,
are so much admired- Ladies in the north, who take but
little exercise, or are confined in close rooms, or have spoiled
their complexion by the application of deleterious mixtures,
if they wish to regain elasticity of step, buoyant spirits, spark
ling eyes and beautiful complexion, they should use Dr.
Towiuend's Sarsaparilla. Thousands who have tried it, are
more than satisfied, are delighted. Ladies of every station
crowd our office daily.
The Kcv. John Segrcr
Of Jersey City, an old and highly respectable clergrman
of the Baptist denomination, handed in the following certifi
cate at Dr.Townsend's office. It speaks for itself.
Dr. Townsend Dear Sir: lam constrained to give-jou a
statement of the benefit I derived from using your Sarsapa
rilla, believing, by so doing, I shall render a benefitMo thosa
who are suffering as I have been. 1 was reduced for many
months by tho Dyspepsia, so much that it was with much dif
Acuity for me to walk or keep about. I had also a tetter,
which covered the most part of my head which was ex
tremely troublesome and soro ; it got to be almost a .scab. I
used quite a number of remedies for both the complaints, but
received little or no benefit, until I took your Sarsaparilla.
which, through the kutdnes.of Providence, has restored ni
to more than my usual health, as I am now enjoying better
than 1 iiave for a number of years. I am now 60 years of
age. I believe it to be an invaluable medicine, and recom
mend it to my numerous acquaintances, which is very larsre.
as I have been n minister a great many years. 1 hope this
hasty sketch may be as much benefit to you as vour medicine
baa to me. JOHN SEGER, Jersey City.
