NEWS SUMMARY.
Two English inTentors recently exhibited in
Paris a musical locomotivo, which was ran back?
ward and forward to the air of "The Tannhauser
March."
A lobster was recently caught t.t Jonesport, Me.,
measuring three feet flvo inches in length and
nineteen and a half inches around tho body, and
weighing twenty-seven pounds. The largest claw
weighed eight pounds fourteen ounces.
On Saturday next tho editor and compositors
of tho Cleveland Herald and Leader are to play a
match game of baso ball. The challongo emanated
from the attaches of tho leader. The two "nines"
are to be composed entirely of thoso who know
nothing about the game.
The Registrar-General ef Ireland records the
death at Magherafelt of a nan aged eighty-five
years. He had an immer.se pendulous tum
growing from tho side o.' his neck, which was
computed by several m' dical men who saw it to
weigh from thirty to fifty pounds. It was of fe.y
yoare' growth, and lay over the front of the right
side of the chest and arms.
YicTOE HUGO'S "devil fish" is no myth, as this
item from an Italian paper showB : "A few days
back a person bathing between Cornigliano and
8ostri, in the Gulf of Genoa, was seized by a large
polypus, and the creature so interlaced ile numer?
ous tentacles round him that he was unable, in
spite of all his efforts, to freo himself, and was
dragged under water and was drowned. None of
the other bathers ventured to go to Lis assist?
ance."
The increase of coast steam lines is adding much
to the business of San Francisco. We see by the
papers of July 25 that in one preceding day steam?
ships left forjOregon, Monterey, Victoria and San
Pedro, and that another line was established for
Pomales, while the Asiatio line was in operation,
and the fleet of sailing vorsols along tho coast has
greatly increased. Not less than fifty new vessels,
of from fifty to two hundred tons burdon, hare
been built along tho coast dorine tho year, and all
find abundance to do.
The Northern papers contain an account of the
recent interview between the President and John
M. Langston, a colored lawyer from Ohio, wherein
it is represented that the President sent for Lang?
ston and tendered him the commissionership of
the Freedmen's Bureau. This is a mistake. Lang?
ston sought the interview and applied for the po?
sition, and when informod that there was no va?
cancy, and no probability of one veiy soon, he
asked for the appointment of min istcr resident at
Hayti. To this the President made a similar re?
sponse, and thus the interview terminated.
A letter from Paris etat ea that M. ALEXANDER
DUMAS is engaged on a now novel, tho scene of
which is laid in America, the time being that of
the civil wax. It is understood that many of the
details and incidents have been furnished by the
eccentric equestrienne, ADAH ISAACS MENKEN HEE?
HAW, or whatever oise the lady's name may be.
Mies MENKEN is not without literary proclivities
of a certain order-and is reported to have kept a
journal, in which are amassed many remarkable
occurrences, which aro to bo "worked up" in tho
new romance after M. DUMAS' own incomparable
niannor.
The Board of Brokers of New York city have an
apparatus in their building for ventilating and
cooling the rrom in which the gold board bold
their daily meetings. The room is fifty-five feet
square and twenty foot in height. A fan blower,
worked by a small steam engine, is placed in ono
of the upper rooms, and drawing its supply from
.he external au* near the top of the building,
forces a continuous current into tho room below,
?hanging the air every six minutes. During very
hot weather the inflowing air is forced through
chambers packed with ice. In winter heaters are
substituted for tho ice chambers.
In the Episcopal Diocesan Convention, held in
Chicago last week, a resolution was adopted in?
structing the deputies of tho diocese in the next
general convention "to procure by general com?
mon law, with suitable qualifications, a prohibition
of the use of the marriage strv-co of tho church in
cases Where either party contemplating marriage
shall hare been previously divorced by the civil
law, on grounds other than that of adultery.'* ,
The deputies are also instructed to procuro a rule
of duty to be followed by clergymen, whoso ser
vices are thus applied for in ase ert lining the facts
bearing on such prohibition.
How to get rich-stick to your business. There
is a man in Now York city who 1 ts a chicken-stall
at one of the markets, lie is now reported to be
worth two millions of dollars. He lives in a largo .
brown-stone palace on Brooklyn Heights, the furni- ,
ture for which cost $120,000. He attends to the
salo of his own chickens, never taking breakfast at \
home, but coming over to tho market every morn- ?
ing between the hours of four and five o'clock, j
He can be seen every day, standing behind a j
marble counter, with a white apron on. In tho ;
afternoon he drives out, with his wife and family,
or a few friends, in an elegant carriage.
lt is reported by the cable dispatch that the ,
Spanish insurgents have taken possession of Sara- .
Kossa, the capital of the rich province of tho for- j
mer Kingdom of Arragon, and so famous in tho ,
wars of Goths and Moors, as well as of the French
with 8pain. General PRIM, who made an unsuc- ,
cessful attempt at revolution about a year and a
half ago, and was driven from the country, is the
leader of the present movement, which, if tho re- !
ported capture of Saragossa be true, is of a for?
midable character. Its success would involve a
change of ministry, and a triumph of those lil e
raJ ideas in the Government, of whioh Genei*al
PRIM is the acknowledged exponent.
The President, under date of the 20th August,
directed that Peninsula Island, in the Bay of San
Francisco, California, be reserved for military p ur?
poses. The island lies just west of Angel Island,
and is reported as having an important bearing (
on the defence of Raccoon Strait, the harbor and
Bay of San Francisco. On the same date the Presi?
dent directed that a reservation for military pur?
poses be made at Camp Goodwin, in Arizona Ter?
ritory. This reservation is situated in the north?
western part of Pirna County, on the Gila River,
embracing an area of thirty-six square miles, or
about 23,040 acres. Commissioner WILSON, of the
General Land Office, has just issued the necessary
instructions to the Surveyors-General cf Califor?
nia and Arizona, at San Francisco, to cause the
foregoing reservations to be rospectod.
There is a serious difficulty existing between
tho Pope and the Czar in regard to the restric?
tions imposed upon Catholics in Russia. Both the
Pope and the Czar insist on maintaining their re?
spective prerogatives, and neither of them will
yield to the other. The Czar, however, being ab?
solute in his own dominions, is master of the situ?
ation Taking into consideration tho fact that
Catholics must at all times find it necessary to
communicate with their spiritual chief, the Czar
has consented to allow thom to write whatever
they may think proper; but only on condition
that all such communications shall first be sub?
mitted to' tho inspection of the Russian Minister
of the Interior, who is clothed with authority to
pass them, or to return them to the writers with
his veto. This is putting the Catholics in Russia
under a system of espoioago, against which tho
Pope thus far has unavailingly protested.
A class of "Cadet Engineers" is soon to be form?
ed at the Naval Academy for the coming school
year. Applicants should bo botwoen eighteen and
twenty-two years of age, and must be prepared to
pass a competitive examination, the result of
which will determine which of the candidates will
receive tho appointment. The candidates will be
expected to possess a good high school education,
and afford evidence of mechanical tastes. Suc?
cessful candidates will be appointed "Cadet En?
gineers," with rank and pay of midshipmen; they
will be assignod quarters in the acalemy, and en?
ter on a course or study calculated to givo them a
good, practical and theoretical knowlege of the
earliest steps in tho engineering profession. Af?
ter graduation the cadets will receive their ap?
pointment of third assis;ant engineers, with pay
of $1300 per year, and may expect rapid promotion
if studious and energetic.
Faustin Soulouque, formerly emperor of Havti, :
who is reported to havo lately deceased, was .'wri 1
in San Domingo in 1739. At his birth ho was a 1
slavo, but became free by tho emancipation act of '
1790. He took part in military affairs at an early I
age, rose to high rank in tho army, and was elect- I
ed President of tho Hay tien Republic in 1847. Two 1
years later he proclaimed hiiuaolf Emperor, estab?
lished a nobility, and acted in a vory arbitrary i
manner. In 1852 he was crowned with imposing
demonstrations, copying olosely tho ceremonial
observed at the coronation of first NAPOLEON. HO
is said to havo consulted a waggish Frenchman as
to suitable appellations for his nobles, and, at thc
suggestion of his adviser, gare thom such re?
markable titles as Duko of Lemonade, Marquis of
Red Terrier, etc. Faustin was very jealous of tho
Dominican Republic, and made repeated attempts
to subjugate it. His want of success and tyranni?
cal government rrovoked an insurrection, and in
1859 he was diven from the island by the forces
under Genera., afterwards President Jeffrard. He
took refuge in Jamaica, where he subsequently
lived with bis family.
CURRENT Tc ?l'H'S.
? WRITER IN THE St. Louis Republican propos
what ho characterizes as "a quick, certain, KU
pl\n to recon.struct tho South, restore its prx
\ erity. and provont thc possibility of bein?; ruled
nogrocs and fanatics." lloro it is : "Every m
in thc Southern Status must now yee that tho <
plan of largo plantations most bc don- away wil
and to keep such places, now that thc nogroca a
free, is neither practicable nor desirable. Lar
plantations, if practicable, are against thc true i
torest8 of tho South. What they need is popn
tion; population is political power and weall
That being tho case, how arc they to acquire tl
population? The answer is easy. Let every m
in the South instantly subdivide Iiis land into foi
acre tracts, as near as possible dividing tho wor
ed and cleared laud equally, at any rate (riving
each forty acres, live or ton i f wood. When tl
is done, let them oflci to the people of thc Wost o
Siates to givo to each settler from those States
ter late forty acres of laud.rcquiring no other ten
than that each settler shall br: ng with him a tea:
farming implement . and metuis to build a nous
and fivo years r ?deuce. In Illinois, Iudiar
Ohio, and othe ? V, .'stern Statoa, land is wor
from $00 to $150 uer aero. Tlioao lands aro out
tho reach of thc thousands and hundreds of thc
sands of young, enterprising and industrio
men, who are looking about for wives and a futu
settlement. Open :heso alternate forty acres
good rich lands to thom, and instantly eve
avenue of travel will bo filled with intelUgoi
thrifty, practical farmers, going South with thc
wives, their horses and improved farming imp]
inents, to settle on tho lands donated them. \
mention Western men, because, as contrast!
with a foreign population, thoy aro skilled ia
mers and moro desirable in every way. Lot tl
bo done, and in fivo years at mott wc shall have :
overwhelming whito population ru'iug tho cou
try, developing its resources and building i
schools, colleges, academies, chrrches and ra
roads, where now there aro none. Let this 1
dono, and we shall soon so3 a height of prospcri
in tho South no vcr drp.nu sd of by them. Tl
BROWNLOWS, HUNNICUTS, and all such fanatic
with their negro votes, will vanish like tho mis
of mom before the risiug sun. Let this bo don
and tho alternate foi ty ac'ros reserved will 1
woith five-fold moro thin tho wholo is now. L
this be done, and tho South will riso up again as
ruling power in the land, and confiscation ar
excessive taxation will vanish.
IN REFERRING to thc appointment of Gencr
CANEY, the New York Journal of Commerce sayi
"The appointment of General CANBY appears I
bo judicious. Ho is an officer of distinction, bran
firm, and said to bo discreet and prudent. Durin
the early part of the war he was stationed wost <
the Mississippi; and his operations wcro but lit ll
known here. Our citizens had an opportunity t
become acquainted with him in 18G4, during tl
riot times, when he was placed in command (
this city, and were favorably impressed with hi
abilities, especially his coolness and judgment
From this point ho was ordered to thc Departmen
of tho Gulf, where, as far as we kuow, ho gav
general satisfaction to all parties and all peoplo
by his steady, strong, just administration of al
fairs. Recently ho has been on duty at Washing
ton, and is a thorough-going Union man. W
trust that General CANB? will vindicate th
wisdom of the President's choice, in tho eye
of tho world, by his strict conformity to th
new and well-phrased order :-that ho shall
when necessary to a faithful execution of tho laws
oxerciso any and all powers conferred by actb c
Congress upon district commanders, and any am
all authority pertaining to officers In command o
military departments." In connection with thc sub
joct the Washington Chronicle says : Genera
CANDY, who has just boon appointed to tho com
niand of tho Second Military District, is said tt
have remarked yesterday, in conversation with :
friend, that ho was not a political partisan, bu
that ho bad studied tho reconstruction law?
thoroughly and approved them, and that ho con
sidorod their faithful execution essential to thc
wolfare of the nation. Ho thought it the duty of thc
Southern people to accept tho terms offered them
Ho is also said to have expressed his apprcciatioi
of tho utility of tho freedmen's bureau and his in?
tention of giving its agents all proper and neces?
sary aid iu tho execution of their work.
IT rs A GOOD TBTNO, fays an English paper, thal
India scorns likely to bo ablo to supply tho whole
world with quinine, for not only was tho American
supply uncertain, it was actually threatened with
extinction, owing to thc reckless way in which thc
Indians killed tho trees in thc process of Stripping,
planting, of courso, no new ones. Mr. Mclvon,
tvho hai been ably seconding Mr. CLEMENT It
MARKHAM'S efforts at chinchona planting, finds
that by removing only ono long strip of bark and
immediately covering tho wound with moss, tho
bark is renewed, provided tho cambium bo not in
lurod. The new bark, moreover, is thicker and
richer in alkaloids than thc original one. Indeed,
Mr. BROUGHTON, tho newly-appointed "quinolog
ist" at Ootacamund tells ns that the
iverago yield of cultivated plants is nearly two
per cent, higher than that of the Wild American
samples-7 per cont., instead of from 4.1fi to 5.0C
per cent. The only drawback is that tho kind
which grows most freely in India is tho rod bark,
the quinino from which is usually mixed with a
considerable portion of chinchonidino and other
allied alkaloids, along with resin and coloring
matter not easily separable. Still, however, since
wo shall uso probably moro and moro quinino
ovory year, it is bettor to have thc mixturo than
uono at all. Mr. BROUGHTON suggests that theso
"amorphous alkaloid substances" may have vir?
tues of their OWL; but possibly, with moro perfect
processes, they may be found boparablo. Any?
how, it is bettor to take what India can givo us for
dispensary use, than to preparo (as they do in
Bomo dispensaries) their mistura quinio out of
concentrated infusion of quassia and calumba,
with a dash of aromatic sulphuric acid.
THE FOLLOWING LETTER has been published by
the gentleman to whom it was addressed in tho

er, Gie w rm, is a mattor of tho greatest conse?
quence to tho wholo cotton logion of thc South.

LANDING, July 22,1867.- Mr. H. M. ISAACSON.
Sir: Suppose you would 1:kctohoar something
further in regard to tho crops and worms. My
crop is growing finely, except a portion of it that
is in tho grass. I have sumo worms, but
they are so few thoy have not injured my crop yet.
Ihey have mostly put up in chrysa's. Sonio have
hatched out, and will go to reproducing in a few
days, when, ir not prevented, they wi? injure tho
crop, but will nokdostroy it until tho th??-d genera?
tion, which will bo three weeks from thc termina?
tion of tho second. I hope to bo ablo to make Mr.
Worm change his base. Last week I made somo
experiments which convinced mo I can drive them
off. If I succeed, which I do not doubt, I will bo
abb to save two-thirda of my crop. The remedy
I used was unslackcd ashes silted over thc plant.
Tho worms left in ono hour after thc application
My nephew triad it with tho same result. I will
begin to make ashes to-morrow, and intend to nave
as much of my cotton as possible. Ono hand can
protect from ono to four acres per day. Tho ashes
will have to be applied every rain, and. it may bo
oftener. Most of my neighbors will try the experi?
ment. We are sanguino ot success.
THE TRIBUNE thus closes an articlo on tbo Presi?
dent's recent courso : Wo admonish tho people lo
preparo for a stem and high responsibility. It is
nearly a hundred day? until Congress meets. Till
then we are powerless. Wc can on'y bow to this
dreadful tyranny. The President appealed to the
country in his last message. Wo join him in thc
appoal. Let our frionds organize everywhere.
Let us niako tho canvass upon tho infamy of Mr.
JOHNSON'S Administration, and having defeated
bim ot tho ballot-box, vro can prepare, through our
representatives, to consider the best course to be
taken to punish him for his crimes against
tho sovereign will of tho American peoplo.
The Now York Times thus concludes an ar?
ticle on the same subject. "Under thi ; aspect of
the question it is not possible for tien. GRANT
long to remain passive. It is bad enough that his
viowH in regard to tho exigencies of tho military
service aro disregarded, as Ihey are by the remo?
val of Gen. HANCOCK from his present Gold. But
can (Jun. GUANT bo a party to orders at variance
with his own, and with the law of which ho is the
administrator? Can ho surrender his undivided
authority to instruct tho district commanders,
and to roviso, revene or conform the;r action?
Can ho even impliedly sanction tho L"egal preten?
sions of tho President, or rospect orders which
contravono tho law? If not, it is manifest that
Gen. GRANT will gradu.-.Uy bo drawn into tho con?
flict, tho further do^ebpmcnt of which will be
awaited with profound anxiety. At no period
?ince the termination of tho war havo affairs worn
an appearance so suggestive of difficulty and

CHARLESTON.
MONDAY MORNINO, 8EPTEMBER 2, 1867.
JOB WORK.-We have now completed our
office ?o as to execute, in the shortest possible
lime, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask the patronage of our
friends.
ALMA MATER.
Wc are indebted to a friend for a Catalogue
of thc University of South Carolina for 1807 ;
and as the institution has our best wishes, we
have thought this a fitting opportunity to make
a few observations, both upon the catalogue,
and euch matters as aro suggested by it.
As wc open this pamphlet, and tho long
columns of Trustees strike our eyes, we are
dispo3cd to bc again polemical, and to launch
our thunder at the polycratic system of govern?
ment, which was so injurious to the interests
of thc College, and will in all probability ren?
der any distinguished success impossible for
the University. Besides the learned witnesses
whom wc have already produced against this
system, wc feel tempted to quote here the in?
vectives of thc great CREIZER, against polyce
phalous government. But the issues that we
raised on this subject are not now fairly pre?
sented, and wc will contend ourselves by sim?
ply alluding to thc confirmation of our views,
afforded by thc difficulty of obtaining a quo?
rum at the Spring meeting of the Board of
Trustees.
We hope wc shall be pardoned for sugges?
ting that the word " Catalogu? " scarcely in?
dicates thc exact character of this pamphlet.
The list of students is in it a very subordinate
feature to the exposition which it contains of
thc plan of thc University, and the course of
study. In thc German Universities the word
Studieiiplan is in usc for this purpose ; and in
thc Knglish Universities " Calendar "'is used.
Wc prefer thc German word; but even "Calen?
dar " is better than "Catalogue."
We notice a very important addition to the
staff of teachers in the appointment of Profes?
sor AUGUSTUS SACHTLEIIEN, to the School of
Modern Languages and Literature. All per?
sons competent to judge will bc disposed to
agree that no better man could have been
chosen for this position than this distinguished
scholar ; and his selection gives us reason to
hope that hereafter it will be practically ac?
knowledged in the management of the Univer?
sity that learning and ability will bo consid?
ered greater recommendations for offico than
the happy circumstance of having been born
in South Carolina.
During thc last session, there were three
resident graduates, and 108 undergraduates.
The cause of polite letters appears not to
have succumbed to thc ignorant onslaught,
which has been made upon it, as we notice
with pleasure that thc " School of Ancient
Languages and Literature " was nttended by
seventy-four students; but wo must add our
regrets that the "science of sciences " obtained
but twenty-two votaries.
Is it not a mistake to make thc daily exami?
nations so important a feature in the Univer?
sity system? This practice is purely Ameri?
can ; and wc arc not disposed to admit that
thc pre-eminence of American scholarship is
so unquestionable as to prove the superiority
of tho process by which it is produced. If we
recollect aright, the German student stands but
a singlo examination for his degree, and in the
Knglish Universities, very little consequences
is attached to these daily recitations. Tho
Professor meus thc student for the purpose of
communicating knowledgo to him orally, which
is thc return that he makes for the fees he has
received.
Wo regret to seo that the bestowal of
honorary degrees has any place at all in thc
new system.
There is ono department of culture, which
has not been assigned to any one of thc
schools of the University. All thc sciences
that aro taught, will avail our young men but
little, if they fail to acquiro soriothing that
is worth more than learning. Let them adopt
as tho pattern of their lives and characters
the pure, noble, accomplished christian gentle?
man, who presides over this institution; and
they will have learned a lesson more precious
than all thc teachings of tho schools.

SANITARY STATISTIC'S OK SOUTH C ARO
LIMA.
Through the kindness of thc Medical Direc?
tor of thc Freedmen's Bureau for South Caro?
lina, Brevet Colonel and Surgeon M. K. MOOAN,
wc have been permitted to examine the Sani?
tary Reporta of Refugees aud Freedmen, who
have been receiving medical treatment from thc
officers of thc Bureau. We procured these
statistics in order to examine, from the most
reliable data within our reach, into thc general
condition of health prevailing throughout thc
St-itc. as well as in this eily. We did this be?
cause there had been within thc past few weeks
what we believed to bc exaggerated rumors re?
garding Hie amount of sickness and mortality
in thc State. A? we have before slated, "re?
fugees*' here means indigent whites. These
reports include the Health Department of thc
City of Charleston. The following posts arc
represented: Charleston, Beaufort, Port Royal
Island, James' Island, Wadmalaw, Georgetown,
Hamburg, St. James' Santee, Edisto Island.
Mount Pleasant, Summerville, Columbia, Hop?
kins' Turnout, Hilton Head, St.. Paul's Parish,
Legareville, St. Thomas' Parish. Monk's Cor- J
ncr, and Darlington. Sonic of these posts
hnvo lately been discontinued. Tire reports of
the "llefugecs," wo believe, are principally
confined to tho white poor of this eily, and thc
freedmen, for tho most part, aro of Charleston
and the sea islands.
Thc reports before us would be of great in?
terest and scientific value if there were any
possibility of determining what proportion the
number of sick here reported bears to the
whole population, from among whom these sick
are tasten. But this, from the nature of the
case, it is impossible to ascertain. The num?
bers purporting to give thia information, there?
fore, are necessarily only of proximate accura?
cy. Wc have thought, however, that a com?
parison of thc sanitary condition of the present
summer, with that of last year, and of the white
with the colored population, may not be with
out interest lo the profession, or evon to the
public.
The consolidated reports of the Heveral posts
in South Carolina, under the charge of the
Freedmen's Bureau (including the poor whito
and black of Charleston), present us with the

Upon an examination of the foregoing tables
it will be seen that the amount of sickness this
year has been greater, both among black and
white, in May, June and July, than during the
corresponding months of last year; and this
difference, we have every reason to believe, is
due to tho greater preponderance this year of ]
the different forms of malarial fever.
Small pox, it is known, was epidemic here
during the winter months of 18G5-'?C, and the
period embraced in the above reports brings us
to the close of the epidemic cycle. The dis?
ease was very fatal, but during the sum?
mer months, as usual, its virulence abated, and
we hence find that but /cw whites died from it.
The number of deaths among the freedmen was
greater-ll per cent, in May; 6 percent, in
June, and about 4 in July; while among the
whites, during tho three months, the deaths
form only 8 per cent, of thc cases. There is
now not a single case of small pox in the State
of South Carolina that we know of, nor has
there been for months.
Typhoid fever did not prevail to any alarm?
ing degree either last year or this. We- have
only 10 cases reported among whites, two of |
which, or 12A per cent., died. Among the
freedmen, we note 17'J cases last year, with l l
deaths, and only 40 cases, with ll deaths, this
year. The per centage of mortality last year
from this disease was about 8 per cent., and
this year 27 per cent, of the cases resulted
fatally, a very large mortality, if tho statistics
may bc relied upon.
The number of cases of the different forms of
malarial fevers reported are net greatly in ex?
cess this year over last. It is true the aggre?
gate of cases is much larger, but it should bo
observed that, both among white and black, the
number of those enjoying the benefit of medi?
cal care from the Bureau is larger this year
than it was last. Thc per centage of malarious
diseases this year and last, calculated from thc
whole number of cases treated, is as follows:
Wc find here, with ail the uncertainty and
accidents to which statistics are subject, a
striking coincidence, in the similarity of the
proportion these malarious diseases hold to the
entiro number of diseases reported, in. the two
years under consideration.
Consumption and sorofula, wo believe, are
not common diseases in this climate. During
thc three months under consideration, in 1800
and 1807, wc have 52 cases of consumption re?
ported among whites, with 7 deaths, or 13 per
cent. Among the freedmen, during the same
period, wc have 189 cases and 41 deaths, or 21
per cent. The per centage of cases of con?
sumption among whites, calculated on thc num?
ber of persons under the charge of the Bureau,
was .014, or nearly one and a half per cent.,
and among the freedmen .002, only one-fifth of |
one per cent., a very small fraction. Of scrofu?
la only 16 cases are reported among whites,
and 287 among tho freedmen.
On the whole, as far as we are able to judge
from these reports, we should say that the sani?
tary condition of South Carolina is good
much better than is supposed by those who
have not examined the subject.
Perhaps, in conclusion, it may be well to
slate that there has not been this year a single
caso reported of any epidemic disease within
the limits of this State. There has been no
small pox, not a single case of yellow fever,
cholera, or even breakbone fever, reported this
year; nnd considering the lateness of thc sea?
son, we think our people may enjoy a reason?
able hope of immunity from epidemic during
the remainder of the year.

In resorting to this remedy, the invalid can depend
upon the safety of every article in its preparation, and
whUe it accelerates the healthful reactions or each organ
and vessel, the mind can be perfectly free from appre?
hension of any subtle ingredient being insinuated into ita
composition.
Tho appetite, which improves under its administration.
Is at liberty to indulge prudently in whatever nutriment
is palatable, digestive and wholeaome, and while it ia no
more than proper to avoid exposure to freah cold, no lear

CORDIAL, quite agreeable to the taste, and aa a lung re
rivifyer and balaam of health, it is distinguishing itself aa
without precedent, and wo trust wiB, ere lon?, claim for
Itself general acclamation tor its unrivalled efficacy.
