A genius hus constructed a lamp for burning the cotton fly, which lays tho ogg that-.produces the cotton worm.

Thirty acres of good ship tim? ber aro. required to' build a common lake steamboat To show how our ocean com mero is dwindling away, it may be stated that in 1857, out of a value of $366,000,000 carried to and from our domestic ports, only $131,000,000 went under a foreign flag, whereas, in 1867, out of $847,000,000 at all ports, $577,600,000 wore carried in alien vessels,, and last year the proportion against us still further increased.

"DO ??QT TBIFLE WITH DANQBR.-A I singlo spark may kindle a flame that will consume a city, and small ailments neglected, may end in fatal disorders. Bearing this fact in mind, lot the first symptoms of debility or nervous prostration be mot promptly with invigorating treatment. Foremost among tho vegetable tonics of thc age, stands HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTER8, and whenever tho vital powers scorn to languish, or Micro is uny reason to suspect that tho animal functions essential to thc sustentation and puri? fication of tho body aro imperfectly performed, this invaluable invigorant and antiseptic should at onco ho resorted to. Indigestion always pro? duces weakness of tho bodily powers. 8omc 'mies it happens that thc appetito demands more food than tho stomach can digest; though not more, perhaps, than is required to koop up the full oirongi.h of i,L? frame. The object, under such circumstances, is to increase tho digestive capa? city of tho assimilating organ, so as to make it equal to the duty imposed ujion itby the appetite, and capable of supplying tho building material of\ the system as fast as it is required. This object [ is fully accomplished by tho use of tho Bitters. They tono ana gently stimulate tho cellular mem? brane which secretes tho gastric juice, and tho reBult is that the aolvont is mingled with the food in sufficient quantity to convert all its nourishing particles into pure and wholesome element. Ir, on the other hand, there is a deficiency of appe? tito, without any corresponding deficiency of digestive power, tho effect of tho toriic is to stimu? late a desire for food. In nineteen cases out of twenty, headache, nausea, nervousness, fainting? fits, spasms, and, indeed, most of the casual aches aud paiUB to which humanity is subject, proceed Erimarily from indigestion complicated with UiouBnoBB; and for both these complaints HOS? TETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS are recommend? ed as a speedy and certain remedy. March 31 f?
