IKarrhcea, dysentery cr f us, so generally con tract c-d by new settlers, and caused principally bj the change cf water and diet, will be speedily regulated by a brief um cf this preparation.

This trying and prcvolt isg disease, which fixea its rale less graap on ila body of can, reducir.g him to a more sha ii in a short time, and rendering him rhy 6"ci4!!y s.ad mentally useless, can be driven irom the body by the use of IIOSTKTTER'S EE:;0 iVXED BITTERS. Further, none ef the acT2-ststc4 diseases can be contracted, even la expossd situations, if the Bitters are used as pr directions. And a they neither create cug nor offend the palate, and render un a;ceHary any change of diet or interrupt icn of ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep aid healthy direstion, the complaint is re aorei as ipeedi.y as Is consistent with the pro di.uca of a thorough and permanent cure. F.-r Vroi in Advcnctd Ycart, who are rzi-:r. fr;a aa enfeebled constittiiion and bura b.dy, these Eluers are invaluable as a r-crative of etrecsth and vior, and neol oaly be tried to be appreciated. And to a aether while nursing these Bittera are indi3 pMJsable, ctreoiaUy srhere the mother's nour lahtccnt is inadequate to the demands of the thai, cjnseqnently her strength must yield, apl here it is where a good tonic, such as IIoeir.r's Stomach Bitters, ia needed to impart -edporary strength and vigor to tho system. a.ia bIicuM by all means try this vemedy for :i cft3)fS 0f debility, a aou'J a?k their physici nd, before so doing, sician. who, if he is -ui:r.!ed with the virtue of the Bitters, will coi3mer.d their use in all eaacs of weakness.

We have one young woman to attetid. the insane women to whom we pay $1.50 ter week, the Stcvvaid cr whoever he may hud capable among trie inmates attends the men.

There is but little im provement, and as several of the insai.e were for years in the State Hospital without any improve ment, theie is tiot much hope for them to le re stored her. Darius the vear two improved so lar as to be allowed to leave, and one so as to be of some use in the house. Cleanliness, ti e use of iheshowor hath exercise and diet are tli means used for their alleviation, and it cannot le said that our Micces h s l-en very gratifying. I take this opi.rtunTty cf returning my thanks to the different musical associations who have visi tel the house during the year for the diversion of the inmates of all classes. Under the protection of a merciful Providence the inmates have Iieen remarkably healthy, but few died, and those were mostly chronic cases, whose termination was oulj a question of tin.e.

The ltls fi ink ed either side on the path that curled a rouod a small arbor, where the young clus ters that lay hidden among the lare leaves wrote a beautiful prophecy for the au tumn.' A white paling ran in front of the garden, and ovar this the little beggar bny so rudely addressed was leaning. Lie was very 'ean, vpry dirty, very ragged. I am afraid, little children, you would have turned away in disgust from so repulsive a spectacle, and yet God and the angel? lured him. lie was looking, with all his soul in his ey-p, oo the blossoms, as tbey swayed fo and fro in the summer wiud, and his heart soft eoed while he leaned his ami on the fence railing, and forgot everything in that long ab sorbed graze. Ah ! it was seldom tbe beg gar txty caw anything good or beautiful, and Li sajream bhould hare eucb a rude awak tiiirg. ' The blood rushed up to his face, and a glince full of eril and defiance flaohed into his eyep. Unt, before the boy could retort, a little girl sprang out from the arbor, and looked reiy eagerly from one child to the oth er. She was very fair, with soft hazel eyes, over which dropped long shining lashes lltch curls hung over her bare white should ers, au l her lips were the color of tbe crimson full blossom. 'How could you speak so cross to the boy, lltuton Vihe asked with a tone of sa l re proach quivering through she sweetness of her voice.

"KHen, I do believe that you're the fun niest girl that ever lived ?" ejaculated the child's brother, as he turned away, and with a low whistle s.untered down the path feel ing very uncomfortable for ber conduct was a strongt r reproof to Lim than any words could hare been.

"tbey depend on tbe quality of tbe notes std the demaud for money, and go up and down like the murcury in a thermometer." "Uy-the-by. Mr S said our wa2 "that word 'thermometer pats me in mind of my dream last night iu which you played a conspicuous pait." Ah, what was that ?" eagerly asked Mr. S . "Well." replied the wag, "I dreamed that I was in the Lower Regions, and tsat tbe gentlemanly superintendent escorted me a round the premises. They were laid out wiih cells on each side of tbe avenues, l:ke a pris on, and each of them had a themoiutler hang iog outside of the door.

"His Sautauic Majsty told me that tbe thermometers weie to indicate th I proper heat to be applied iu each case, and - . mat itiey were obliged to Keep up the warmth accoidiug to tbe 'rater .' "Continuing on, I came to an angle ; on turning whioh I found a cell on which I ob served .there was no thermometor. I asked my conductor the reason for this difference ic arrangement.

Neighbor Jaubcr weighs about two hundred and has a decided objection to being caeited When he buys a pound of tea be is careful to get good weight. Oae day he ucut to the wharf to get a ton of coal and be insisted, af ter assuring himself the scales were well ad justed, upon seeing it weighed, for cool deal ers sometimes makes mistakes. Tho team wai driving upon tbe platform scales. Jau ber stood to watch th figures. "Twenty-two hundred weight of coal, said tbe dealer, with a wiuk to tbe bystan ders "llather bort. haggled the' buyer. "Throw iu a little more and I will take the load Z The obliging dealer complied, and the scale was again exauiiued. "All right I am satisfied with that. You coal dealers don't always give good weight," grinned Jauber. "Drive on, John ; stop in ths street " ad ded the seller, aud be took J saber into tbe counting room, where tbe bill was paid. "Are you perfectly satisfied 7" "Perfectly ; I like to look after these tbiogs myself 'Wei!, sir. I would say you bad cheated yourself out of two hundred pounds of coal by looking after these things yourself. "What do you mean ?' Tbe dealer ordered his teamster to bick on the scales again; and to thJ astonishment of Jauber, the words were verified. " I do not understand it," added the buy er.
