The celebrated author, in this admirable Essav, clearly demongtrates, from thirty vears' Buccessful practice, that alarming con- sequences may be radically cnred without the dangerous use of internal medicine, or the use of the knife pointing out a mode of cure at once simple, certain and effectual, by means of which every snflerer, no matter what his condition may be, may cure himself cheaply, privately and radically.

And one faaving an only sou, the other an only daugh- ter, what more natural than that ihey should oink their bond of friendship in tbe closer bond of relatiouship. Old Sir John had lov'd and admir- d little Lady Clive, next to Lis body, above all earthly tbinj;s.

One last effort he made to obey his father if he found her the sort cf woman be bad suspected, then she ahoold oover be wife of his. Two men were talking near him as he sat lost in thought. Their eoo versation fell on bis ear â€" they didt not seem to heed liim â€" and lost in' bis own revene, he did not comprebeitd a word. 'Left this morning, did you say, Wyatt one of them waa saying.

'1 beg your pardon;' he said ii: haughty surprise, 'I am that deuce of a giag â€" Sir Arthur Tregenna, Had I knowL I was the saliject oi your conversation I would have iuterupt- ed yon suoncr.

(to BK CONTINUBD.l THE NEWSPAPER IN THE FARM-HOUSE. People who live in cities having two or three daily newspapers, do not fully appreciate the value of a newspaper. There they are looked upon as neces- sities, and as indispensable as tbe morning meal. One must be for off up the country, remote from the mad- dening crowd to realize the full luxiuy of a newspuper. The farmer who re- ceives but one newspaper a week does not glauce over its columns hurriedly, as doth the lawyer or merchant, he begins with the title and reads to the end, not a news item or au advertise- ment escapes bis eye. Then it has to be thunlbcd by every member of the family. The daughter looks for the marriage notices aud the love story. The s m, just about to start a farm, reads crop reports, and has a keen aye to unproved modes of culture, Tiie young people look after sirhising scraps, and all look forward to the day that brings the paper. If it should chance to miss, the grumblings are loud and strong. Tbe new^ipaper is the poor man's library, the food of his mind. Through the months of March aud April be cafi^fdl not to use Purizativos containing Cttlomcl or oiber injurious substances.

Tbe cap- tain's wife and chil^n were greatest sufferers, aud at one time it waa fully expected tley would die. The cLildren lay upon their mother's lap, moaning for water. A turtle was captured, and torn from its shell, and its blood ea- gerly drank. At last tbe coast was reaobed, a atream found, together with rest acd refreshment.
