The Little Girl's Good Morning.
BY MARY IRyING.
"Oh I I am so happy 1" the little girl said,
As she sprang like a lark from the low trundle
bed;
f4‘2 1 1 is morning, bright morning 1 Good morn,
papa!
Oh, give me one kiss for good morning, mamma!
Only look at my pretty canary,
Chirping his, sweet goodmorning to . Mary!
The sunshine is peeping straight into my eyes—
Good morning to you,.Mr. Son, for you rise
Early to wake up my birdie and me,
And make us as happy as happy can be."
4, Happy you may be, my dear little girl,"
Aud the'rnotber stroked softly a clustering curl,f—
-" Happy as happy can be—but think of the One
'Who wakened, this morning, both you and,the
sun."
The little one/turned her bright eyes with a nod—
,
a Mamma, may I say good morning to God ?"
a,Yes, little darling one, surely you may—
Kneel as you kneel every morning to pray,"
Mary knelt solemnly down, with her,ey,es,
Looking up earnestly into the skiss ;
And two little hands that were folded together,
Softly she laid, on the lap of her mother ;
" Good 'morning, dear Father in Heaven," the
,4 I thank .thee for,watohing my song little. bed ;
For'taking good care of'iiie all the dark night,
And waking me up with the beautiful light;
Oh, keep me frOin Fr haughtltiesi all tge long daf,,
Iliad Jesus, whii taught little ehildreu t to pray."
An angel looked down in the sunshine, and smiled ;
But she saw' not the,angel—tlitit beautlful child.

NICARAGUA, PAST, ?REMIT, AND . FUTUNA. By',
Peter Stout, Bag., late United Stites
Consul. 'Pp. 872, 12mo. Philadelphia: John ,
E. Potter, 617 Sansom Street. 1869.
Of late, Nicaragua has occupied much of the
attention of the public, both in this country and'
in Europe. At one , time, it seemed probable
that It might be made the means of engaging us,
in another fearful conflict with the mother
country. And its position, both present and
prospective, is such as Must give it great import
ance in the commercial World, 'and also in the
eyes of statesmen. But, notwithstanding the
immense number of letters and editorial leaders
that have been written, this Is the first general,
and at the same time particular; history of the
country that has appeared. As Vice Consul of
the United States, Mr. Stout had' unusual facili
ties for acquiring a knowledge of the productions
of the country; the character of its people, and
the political ,affairs of this and the adjoining
States. He saw most of the leallers of the Cen
tral American forces, and gives a History of the
Filibusters in a graphic manner. So that this
book is a full and. vivid description of the Inhab
itants, customs, mines, minerals, early history,
Modern Filibusterism, the proposed Inter•Oee4nic
Canal, of Nicaragua, and will throw much light
on the great Central American problem of which
so much is said and Written.

strong taste for wandering and nautical allve4 l ,

SPECIFICS FOR CONSUMPTION.
SYRUP OF THE HYPOPHOSPHITF, , s,
Composed of the Hypophosphites of Lime,
. .
Soda, Pota . sia; and. Iron.
These remedke were brought to notice by Dr. John
Francis Churchill, en eminent physician of Dublin, and
hove attracted much attention from the medical pro fession.
To give a general idea of th.ir a.ttion, we make the follow
ing extracts from Dr. Churchill's Parer " On the Proximate
Cause and Specific Remedy of Tuberculesis," rend h.fure
the Academy of Medicine, Ferris, Y01y,1457. Says Dr. C.:—
" The total number of mem of Phthisis treated by me
amounts to thirty-five. ill were either in the sicwod or •
third stones of the ccmp'alnt; that is, they had either
softened tubercles or cavities in the lungs: of tnese, nine
recovered completely, the physical sign.' of ti”.4lseaae dis
appearing altogether in eight out of that number; eleven
improved consilerably, and fourteen died. The results
will be found to justify the following conclusions:
n The proximate came, nr at all events an essential con•
Mien of the tubercular diathesis. Sc the. decrease in th'
system of the phosphorus which ft contains in an oxygeni
zable state.
"The specifio remedy of the disease consign in ths Masaf
a preparation of. phosphorus, uniting the two conditions,
being in sneh a state that it may be directly asaluVleted,
and at the same time at the lowest possible degree of day
dation.
"The effects of those salts upon the tubercular diathesis
in immediate; alt the general symptoms of the cl•nesse
appearing witr. n rapidity which is really marvelous. If
the pathological deposit produced hy the dyeciscy is of re
cent formation, it softening has only just eat In, and does
not proceed too rapidly, the tubercles are re-absorbed and
disappear. When the softening has attained a certain de
gree, it sometimes continues in spite of the treatment; and
the issue of the disease then depends upon sn anatomical
condition of the local lesion, on its extent, and upon the
existence or non-existence of complications. I have made
numerous attempts to modify the local condition of the
lunge by the inhalation of different substances, but have
never obtained any satisfactory result independent of what
was to be attributed to the sfacide treatment. The Hypo
phosphitea are certain prophylactics against tubercular
disease.
" The physiological effects show these preparations to
have a tsto-fold action; on the one hand they increase the.
principle, whatever that may be, which roostitutes ner
vous force, and on the other, they elevate the tone of the
several functions concernedln alimentation and nutrition.
They seem to masses, in the higheat degree, all the them
peutical properties formerly attributed by different bb
servers to phoephoraa itself; withont any of the danger
which attends the use cf that substance. The different
preparations of. Hypophospborus Acid will undoubtedly
occupy one of the most important places in the Materia
Pd edica."
The success of this treatment being so much in advance
of anything before attained in the management of this
heretofore almost incurable disease, calls for a thorough
hutting of these remedies. With this view, thecombination
here offered in the form of Syrup has been made.
The beneficial effects of these Salts are not limited to
Consumption alone; they are appropriate remedies in dl'
large class ,of affections resulting from lose of nervous,.
tree, Dyspepsia, Scrofula. debilitated conditions of Females;
lack of vital action in Children, and where the osseous;
system is defective. Understanding the chemical nature
of these Salts, physicians will be enabled to use them in a
large clam cf diseases where they seem.to be indicated.
We hive every advantage in mannfacturing these arti.
des. The Dry Salts we have been engaged in manufac
tnrlnclargely since they were first brought to notice, and
.we w them to be strictly reliable. The Syrup is a Corn

nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men
tioned diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and never known to fail when ad
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors,
FLEMING BROTHERS,

to dispose of their Drug business,-
in which they have been isuccess-=
fully engaged for the last Twenty
Years and they will no* giVe 'their
