TO THE WORLD.

NAN we for a moment look upon our wide spread
~ land, and behold the fearful amount OF suffering
and disease that there exists, without feeling OF
pain u sympathy arising in our hearts accompanied
wthf the desire of bestowng relief if we possessed
the powerl No. we cannot; the human heart goes
forth to meet its fellow and extends TO him the hand
of sympathy, if nothing more. This may soothe,
but il will not cure. He still feels himself oh
iect that is oathed-he still feels himself cIin?le
the anguish still fingers around his pillow. Those
at all familiar with the history Of diseases cannot
help being struck with the rapid increase OF that
pecu liai race Of diseases arising from an impure
state of the blood or habit Of the system, diseases
of the mucus tissue also OF the osseous and CLAN
duIar system scrofnla cancerous ulcers and obsti-
nate cutaneous eruptions, chronic sore eyes, and
disease Of the bones. The chief cause OF their in
crease is owing TO their being hereditary running
through whole families and spreading destruction
along their path. But for all these ills there has
new medicine dawned upon the world and in
offering to the public this new preparation, which
has for its objeut the relief OF suffering humanity
il becomes necessary to state upon what grounds il
puts forth II merits and the reasons upon which il
foundsits superior claims the attention Of the af
fcted, that all who require its use may fearlessly
repose full confidence in its restorative virtues
But let introduce our readers more particularly
to this new preparation, which has already been
announced to the public, under the name Of SANDS
SARSAPARlLLA.

Hole IN The f ARTH.--The Journal Of Com
merce publishes the following: "A friend who
has just returned from the South, tells US that
about forty miles this side Of Tuscaloosa, on
the road to Huntsvill, the driver pointed to
large hole in field, which he said was the
greatest curiosity in the world. The passen-
gers went to the spot, and found round hole
about seventy feet in diameter, with the earth
on all sides apparently solid. and overgrown
with grass. There was water at the bottom
hundred feet from the. surface.-
Il is at the top Of a ridge Of earth. upon which,
at the distance oftwenty rods, stood the de-
serted dwelling of the owner of'he plantation.
The driver stated that about three years ago,
in the dusk Of the evening. the planter was
startled by rumbling noise, and stepping
from his door,, was astonished TO find that q
msgnigcient pine tre = more than hundred
deei high, and noble oak which astood by its
lside in the open field, had both disappeared !!
On going to the spot, this hole appeared, but
nothing was to be seen Of the trees. nor has
The top of them ever been reached-though a
sounding line has been sent down three hun
dred feet. The planter deemed 1t unsafe to
remain so nenr a neighbor to such catastro-
phe, lest,hat should betal him and his family
which befel the pine and the oak and so he
removed 10 another house mile distant, yet
nothing Of the kind has happened since, and
the wondesstill remains unaccounted Tor.
