Barren ofevery glorious theme,
In distant clines now waits better time,
Producing subjects worthy fame.
In happy cIimes where from the genial
And virgin earth such scenes ensue
The force of art by nature seems OUTCOME
And fancied beauties by the true.
In happy climes, the seat Of innocence,
Where nature guides, and virtue rules
Where men shall not impose for truth and
sense,
The pedautry Of courts and schools.
There shall be sung another golden age,
The rise of empire and Of arts;
The good and great inspiring epic rage,
The wisest heads and nobiest hearts.
Not such as Europe heeds in her decay
Such as she had when fresh and young
When heavenly fame did animate her
clay,
BY future poets shall be sung.

SELECTING SEED CORN.

Every one is acquainted with the fact,
that plants of any variety, grown from seeds
obtained in a higher iati'udo, or what IS IN
effect the same thing, greater elevation
viii come to maturity, and ripen their seeds
carrier, than when The process is reversed
and the seeds are obtained from lower
latitude, ,sor more depressed position. In no
plant is lhe effect more consPlcuous than
in corn, aud the present season has afforded
numberless opportunities oftestng the truth
of The theory. Where corn has been
bfS6ght from The vallies TO the bills and
planned, il has been uniformly later in tas.
selling aud siking Than that grown at the
same elevation and where corn has been
brough. from the north or the south tor any
distance, the same results may beoescryed !;
in the first case the corn coming forward

ment of the growth of his China tree corn,
and lhe time Of lis being fit for boiling TO oe
correct that corn, distributed ever the norm
from Long Island, and some of it planted al
much greater elevations, furnishes the most
striking proof of the impolicy OF seeclne
seed corn from more southern region lhat
we have yet seen. On The line OF the Erie

the corr which was fit to boil by the tenth

August CdIiisa,or, Judge Buel says
We.feceived last spring twelve ears oi
Dotron corn from, Mr.. Osborn. of Oswego
rouniy. his residence differing from ours IN
isiitude and altitude about two degrees.
we planted with this seed eight rows across
our Geld, the residue being planted with
corn of our own raising. The Oswego
corn tasssled two weeks earlier than that
from seed raised at Albany, thus showing
six or seven days difference for . compu-

Such facts should no. be lost upon the

UNIVERSAL MEDICINE THE
NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE OF HEALTH
Established at Washington, ID. C. Jan. g. 1888.
ADDRESS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Fellow Citzens:-At time like the present,
when country is literally flooded with nostrums
brought from foreign chimes, you may perhaps
think it an act Of temerity in us to offer can
didaie for your favoor and patrnage, Medicine
which is strictly AMERICAN. Common sense,
however, teaches u.s. that those he bs which spring
spontaneously from our native soil, must be better
adapted to constitutions than foreign medicines
however useful the latter may have been in the
countries to which they belong. The climate of the
United States stands unrivaed for the production
of medicinal plants, and very little Investigation
will suffice to convince the most skeptica that our
country is able 10 supply all our wants, indie
pendent Of foreign assistance.
Deeply impressed with the importance of the a.
bove mentioned facts venture to recommend the
INDIAN PURGATIVE to the patronage of our
fellow citizens in every section of the Unlon as
natural remedy, applicable to our constitutions, and
competent to cure every durable disease.
In bringing medicine before the public for the
first time it is generally thought necessary to i'm.
press the people with idea of the difficulties en-
countered in its discovery, or the antiquity Of Its
origin thus one tells us that his medicine is " a
newly discovered chemical compound, the result of
MANY years intense study and scientific research;
and another ascribes the honor to somebody s
Grandfather, &c. Now, the success of medi-
cine must depend Its own intrinsic merits, and
not on the time or manner in which it was discov-
cred we cannot the of falsifying, for the
purpose of investing its origin with fictitious anti
guilty. Such auxiliarles are not needed on the
present occason single dose of the Indian Pur.
gative will suffice to convince every invalid land
to such only we look for an impartial verdct) that
its crative effects intellectually superior to those
of any other medicine now in use. Proud of this
superiority, scorn fictitious aid, but give it to
the world for what it is SIMPLY A compound OF
FOUR SIMPLE HERBS used for the cure of dis
ease, by THE COPPER COLORED WARRIORS
OF THE WEST. One of the herbs is an expecto-
rant, one sudorifc, one diuretic, and a cath.
