I do this more readily in regard to Hooflaud's

number of years, under the impresaion that
they were rhiefly an alcoholic mixture. lam

for the TAmoval of this prejudice IT proper
tests, and for encouragement to try them, when
suffering from great" and long debility. The
use of three bottles of these bitters, at the be

evident relief, and restoration to a degree of
bodily and mental vigor which I bad not felt
for sic months before, and had almost dispair

land's German Bitters" will cure nine-tenths
of the diseases induced by privation and ex
posues incident to camp life. In the lista
published almost daily in the newspapers, on
thearrival of the sick, it will be noticed that
a very large proportion are suffering from de
bility. Every case of that kind can be readi
ly cured by Hooflsnd's German Bitters. We
have no hesitatior , in stating that, if these bit
ters are freely used among our soldiers, hund
reds of lives might be salted that otherwise
would be lost.
The proprietors are daily receiving thankful
letters from sufferers in the army and hospi
tals,who have been restored to health by life use
of these Bitters, sent to them by their friends.
Beware of counterfeits ! See that the sig
nature of "C. M. Jackson," is on the wrapper
of each bottle.

I have long been.puzzled to-guess'
And.so I have frequently said;.
What;the reason could really., be , • •
That I haye never happened to,wed ;
But now it is perfectly clear

The girls are already assigned—
And I am a superfluous man.
These clever statistical chaps
Declare the .numericaUrun
Of women and men in the world,
Is Awgpy to twenty-and-one;
And hence in pairing, you.pee,
Since wooing and wedding tegan,
For every connubial score,
They've got a superfluous man
Thin Stant,
By twenties and twenties they go,
And giddily rush to their fare,
For none of the number of course,
Can fail of a conjugal mate ;
But'while they are yielding in scores.
To nature's intle;ible plan,
There , s never a woman for me,
For I'm a superfluous man.
It isn't that I am a churl,
To solitude over-inclined ;
It isn't that I am at fault
In morals, or manners, or mind ;
Then what is the reason, you ask,
I am still with the bachelor. clan?
I merely was numbered , amiss—
And, I'm ri superfluous man.
It isn't that I am in want
Of personal beauty or grace,
For many a man with aFife
Is uglier far in the face';
Indeed, among elegant men,
I fancy myself in the van,
But what is the value of that,.
When . I'm a superfluous man
Although I am fond of the giris,
For aught I could ever. discern,
The tender emotion I feel
Is one they ever return :
'Tie idle to quarrel with fate,
For struggle as hard as'l can,
They're mated already, YOU Yriow—
And I'm a superfluous maul
No wonder I grumble at times,
With women so pretty and plenty,
to know that I never was born
To figitre its one 'of the twenty ;' '
But yet when the average lot •
With 'critical vision I scan,
I think it maybe for the best
that I'm a superfluous man.

Pr. RITZY WARD'S BESOLUTIO
For two years Kitty Ward had be n
earnestly striving to be good. She d -
sired, beyond all things, to be pure in
heart, true in,motive, single in purpose.
But' the result did not satisfy het. To
her"very greet mortiftition, 'she was
foreedlO that.the real - obstadle
self-love. The issue of all OAS 'Was' the
following insertion , in her .diary
Resolved.: With, the help. of my
heavenly
,Father; I will seek to do.good
whereiand in what degree I ean, without
any though or hope , of :reward or return
in any:way.
At this juncture a pleasant voice from
an adjoining room called, I g .
"Kitty love I"
.
"Yee, dear mother." i
"Here are two` invitations for you."
Kitty opened one, which ran as fol
lowS: ' '
"DEAR Puss—Pack up your prettiest
dresses, and. brifig . them, withspur sweet
face,, over to Woodlawn:. I want to
borrow you for a month or two. Bring
all your supply of merry smiles, bright
looks, and winning ways ; for the Mar-
MUIR, Livingstone, and Lees are here.
Also, my dear baS bleit, bring all your
wisdom ; for Tires Major is coming, the
last of the month.. Ile cares for nothing
earthly but -learning, and never opens
his month to a lady save to growl. Per
haps I, should explain. By Ursa Major
I mean . Dr. Muller, the great savant,
who, by the way, is likewise a great
p ar a. I will, send the carriage to the
depot for you. Good-by, doarie,
The second note, from 'a good old
Quaker aunt `of her father's, Was in a
different strain :
"My DEM,. Kavnzaiug--Will thee
come and stay with thy old =aunt a few
weeks? lam sorely afflicted with rheu
matism, and quite helpless. I lour for
thy bright face and cheerful, voice. If
thee will come, thee will be doing a
great kindness-to thy affectionate
AUNT RUTH."
Kitty was thoughtful for some time
"Mother, what shall I do ?"
"What do you wish, my child ?"
"Do you not think cousin Sarah would
go to Aunt Ruth r she said, after a
pause.
"Very
Eagerly, "Oh I mother, I should like
so much to go to Woodlawn. It is so
delightful there. The company is al
ways refined, intelligent, and entertain
ing. It improves my French so much
to talk with the Marceans. And Dr.
Muller is to be there. He has been
abroad for years, engaged in scientific
researches connected with his profes
sion. Ho knows everything."
Mrs. Ward saw very well the struggle
her daughter was undergoing, but she
Only said;
"Decide for yourself, 'my dear," and
left her.
Kitty ran up stairs, fully determined
to go to Woodlawn, but the first object
that met her gaze was' her diary, and the
.resolution.
Then commenced a sharp conflict.L—
The many and varied delights of Wood
lawn, passed before her ; the rides, the
excursions, the boating parties the fetes
of all kinds, and the elegance anti-re
finement of its surroundings ; 1 1 0, in
strong contrast ?, 7ap , pati , eut, suffering
aunt Ruiti, in her quiet little home,
Widowed and childless for' years, with
‘no company, nothing cheerful.
"Well, now, If there ever is a chance
to act 'upon my new resolution---" and,
to avoid further temptatlon, she wrote a
regret, to cousin Alice, and an accept
ance to aunt Ruth.
Aunt Ruth took' off ber spectacles,
and wiped' hef eyes, when she read Kit
ty's note, and said, : "The blessed child. I"
and then handed it to the physician by
her bedside to read. This PhysiCian, a
gra* quiet-looking gentleman, with a
broad, white forehead, and deep eyes,
wealth's child of a dear ; early friend of
aunt Ruth.
Kitty came alt th'e appointed time,
and within a week the house -was a
changed place. The doors and windows
were opened, the sweet air andtright
sunshine let in. Bouquets were seat-
tered here and there, freshly arranged
each day. The rigid arrangement of the
furniture was broken. Aunt Ruth's old
piano was tuned, and drawn. up near the
door of her room, that Kitty might sing
old hymns to her. Aunt Ruth's good
old heart was greatly rejoiced by all this
change;and the doctor wondered great
ly. He- saw the effect, and knew Kitty
to be the cause, but the means was to
him a raystery. Fjom day to day he
spent much time, wondering what change
such a bright spirit would make in hit
grand, but sombre old place, a mile or
two distant.
Nothing could exceed Ritty'S amaze
ment when she feud that aunt Ruth's
friend, to whom she had .written so of
ten, of whoin ,she talked so much, .was
the great Dr. Muller. She did not talk
much in his presence, for she • stood in
real. awe of, him ; but her delight was
unspeakablein listening- to his conver
sations with aunt Ruth. His vast
kootyledge, his varied , experiences, hie
great,and good ideas, were wonderful to
her, and she congratulated herself many
times that sho knew him so much better
here thattshe could have done at Wood
lawn.
To the doctor, Kitty was a revela
tion. He bad never bad much' time or
opportunity for knowing ladies. He
was tiot at all versed in. their Ways or
manners: Be thought Kitty's beaming
face 'Was like sunshine ; her merry laugh
like rippling waters her voice was
melody. Be noted her womanly ways,
her gentleness, her kindness. He found
her "never weary of well-doing, never
seeking for her own."'
Well, it fell out -as Kitty had pre
dicted. Aunt Ruth grew' rapidly' better.
So, after all, Kitty went to Woodlawn
about the time Dr. Muller did. But, for
some reason, she did not enjoy it as she
had done in former times. Everything
lacked tone and interest, and she looked
back with a sigh to the quiet copversa
tions in aunt Ruth's, sick-room. She
saw bat little of Dr. Muller. , He seemed
engrossed by the gentlemen. The fact
was, lie avoided her; for when he saw
her so sought by her young friends, no
party being complete , without
.ber, .the
delight and joy of all, be, began to fear
that the. society of a dull,student like
himself :must be irksome, and he only
discovered then what it would be to him
,to have her always.
Cousix ALICE."
Toward the close of the visit, Dr.
Muller proposed that the party should
transfer themselves to: his place `for a
week or so. This invitation was. hailed
with delight, for the old Miller place,
with its majestic treat, beautiful views,
long avenues, grassy lawns, and, above
all, tbe grand, mysterious rooms, closed
since his mother's death, were objects of
interest to all. Not the smallest of
Kitty's pleasures was that: she found
dear aunt Rath there, but yet she car
ried a dreary heart the while ; for it
seemed to her that all the interest in
life was concentrated in this one spot,
and how'soon she was to leave it.
One day, Dr. Muller sat in his library
alone, his head buried in his hands,—
Aunt Ruth ‘came softly in. She saw
his look of wretchedness.
'Thee ought to be a happy man, Her
mann, with these 'broad hands, and thy
great opportunities to do -good. But
thee does not look so."
"Aunt Rath, I would give all of.this,
and more. for the one, little _ewe-lamb
that is not mine!'
"What does the mean, Hermann 7"
"I mean that my eellish, heart,
.old,
grave, and full, of cares, pines for year
little Kitty,"
Aunt Rath walked out of the library
with more celerity than her gentle move
ments usually permitted, went to Kit
ty's room, in a maauer that might be
called excited, and said,
“Katheriae. 'go to Ito Ii r ry ; the
doctor has , need. of thee.”
Kitty hastened, a little alarmed.
"Aunt Roth says you want me, Dr.
MtiDer." '
"I do'want you, I do. What else did
she tell you ? That my whole being'is
crying oat; for' yin, that my heart is hun
gry and insatiable ? But L did not mean
to disturb your happy life, I did not
mean, this knowledge to come , to you."
Kitty turned her sweet, true Nee full
upon him. "Dr. Muller,,in nll the world
there is nothing .1 would sutler-have
than your love."
She has s been his wife now six months.
Mrs: Muller itra - good 'arid' noble wo
man,' Dr: Muller is a : goodiind noble
man; and there is no reason why they,
should not lead "good and noble lives.—
Aunt Ruth closed her little` horise; and
is their honored guest. Kitty still
strives ardently to keep her resolution,
but her husband thinks she never had
need to, make it.

The Cork Examiner vouches for the
truth of the following romance in real
life :—"Con Tuesday one of the largest
audiences ever .assembled, in a Cork
theatre, was attracted to it by the pro
mised attendance at the performance of
the fox-hunters of the south of Ireland
in full hunting costume. Connected
with this incident is a story which con
tains a strong spice of romance. A
gentleman residing in Cork, of consider
able eminence in the scientific world, as
well as distinguished in the field hunt
ing, and in social circles, was recently
at a ball near Queenstown, at which a
young lady of great beauty was present.
In the evening, the gentleman, who had
been but a short time Tireirionsly intro;
duced to the lady, Managed to
lie'her conversation so Muth as=to et ,
cite some little 'annoyance among vari-'
ens other gentleMeri present. Among
these were two English officers; one of
whom in the course of the evening; made
a remark to an Irish gentleman, which,
by implication, meant that he would not
be as successful in-more manly contests.
The Irish gentleman at' once accepted
the implied challenge, and said that if
the lady would give him ter bracelet to
wear as a gage at the next day's hunt•
which was to come off' near Annoy, he
would undertake to , come in at the finish
before either of the two officers, and
would then write a song to be dedicated
to the lady, and in her praise which he
would get set to music, and afterwards
have sung before one of the largest audi
ences ever assembled in the Cork thea
tre. The wager was at once accepted,
twenty pounds being the sum staked.—
The lady, with %eb spirit, gave her
bracelet, the hunt came off, the gentle
man wore it, and rode in triumphantly
at the head of the field. He afterwards
did compose the song, and had it set to
music, and this was the pretty ballad
which Mr. Bowler sang so charmingly
after the opera. To secure the large
house on that night the patronage of the
fox-hunters of the south of Ireland was
obtained by the gentleman who played
such a prominent part in the transac
tion, and the highly successful result
was to be found in the crammed condi
tion of every part of the building. The
next morning a letter was delivered to
the hero of the adventure, containing a
check of twenty pounds from his rival,
with whom he had made the bet, who
thus acknowledged our countryman's
superiority as a courtier, a cavalier, and
a poet. The following is a specimen of
.the song
" 'Thy colors in my cap I. wore,
Thy presence in my heart 'I bore
Surely a charmed life was mine,
Since it in thought was linked with thine
