woman In Dublin, observed in her cams what he deemed
• phenomenon in optics, on which Le called together
his profess,onal brethren, declaring himself unequal to
the solution. He stated to them that the sight of his
patient was so perfeetly rethored that she could see to
thread the smallest needle, or to perform any other
operation which required particular socursoy of vision.
But when he presented her with • book she was not
amiable of distinguishing one hitter from another.
This very singular case excited the ingenuity of all
the gentlemen present, and various solutions were
offered, but none could command the general assent.
Doubt crowded on doubt, and the problem grew darker
from every explanation. When at length. by • question
put by the so rmne who attended, it wee discovered that
—the woman had never learned to read.

Complexion tints, I've heard dark hints,
Are changed by walnut juice;
And ill ink the dearest girl,
For whom al one I live,
For one long trees to lam and blew,

oiling', I have fought and bled for my country. I
have helped to whip the British and the Indians. I
have slept on the field of battle with no other covering
than the canopy of heaven. I have walked over the

then," odd the tearful elitism, as he gave • Web of pent-
up emotion, "1 gums I'll cote for t'other fellow, for

FIRE& —The secretary of the Sun Fire Inenranes
Oldos stated to the Commons' Select Committee of last
session on fires, "that careltamess in using heifer

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OISTSINT.—These wonderful
remedied bays now becoine so appreciated in every pan
of the world that they form • coropkte "household
treasure." The wont cases of ulcer, wounds, bad legs,
and every variety of skin diseases, for which so many
treatments have been tried without effect, readily
succumb to their power they act so miraeulously upon
the system as to be considered • complete phenomenon
I, the healirg art. For this reason they are advonted
and need by many modern pnicationers, after everything
else has proved unintensalul. The pills soon give tone
to the stomach. renovate the digerati,s powers, poi*
the blood, end givc strength to the whole system, whilst
the ointment will with certainty iiiere all external
wounds, no matter how desperate the oases may be.
