STARTLING FACTS.

HUNDREDS of children adults are lost wear.

cold, or some other ailing carries off the flowers

Mr.. J. C. RINGoLD, had child very SICK
for near two weeks, and attended by physician,
without relief, wher KOLMSTOCK'S YERMl-

worms were passed, when the child recovered ra

A CHILD of widow woman, living near the
Manhattan Water Works had dwindled for a
month, I'LL near skeleton, with great drynessof
the mouth, and itching of the nose, A humane
lady, who called to provide for the family, sent
immediately for KOLMSTOCK'S VERMI-
FUGE, which brought away great qanlties OF
worms for two or three days, and the child grew
better at once, and regained its full strength in
less than month";

from the mountain side the huge iounda-
ton stones of that edifce. There they
stand ready and able, if employed, to rip
up again those foundations, and level those
Babylonish walls TO the earth, or drag
them into the sea. A part OF the indlg-
nant multitude rush forward 10 seize those
battering rams, when the rest set up the
cry Hold hold! Touch not those
dreadful engines for they are the very
ones that built this horrid Baslile.-
Touch not those bars, and chains, nor
any of the iron machinery that were en-
pIoyed in sinking those dungeons, rearing
those walls, and capturing, and lettering
three millions of men, women and chill
dren in that gloomy prison.
No touch them not they have been
the instruments of oppression. The lev.
ling of those ironed ramparts is moral
question, and moral means alone must be
employed. Let go that iron machine,
and we will melt down those adamantine
walls with moral suaSiOn. Come and,
as the bands of Israel marched round the
walls of Jericho, so we will march around
the Bastle, and sing psalms and pray,
and make pious demonstrations OF latin on
rams horns, and sounding brass, Till yon
high bastions fall. For though Joshua
and every warrior of Israel marched
around that ancient city, and over its de.
moished bulwarks, with his drawn sword
in his hand, yet he might have made
moral question of it, and left his weapons
of war at home.

The Quizzer QuizZed.

On a recent occasion Of a medical pro-
fessor delivering practical lectures to the
public, a gawky looking ClodhoPper
thought he had devised mode ofturning
the laugh against the doctor. He noun
ted the stage and being questioned as
to his disorder, said very gravely-
"Why Pm liar"
"Sad disorder sir, but perfectly cura-
ble," said the doctor.
"WeIl," said the man, but l've wor-
ser nor that, I've lost my memory"
"Qnite durable, also," added the doc
tor;-"But l must make my preparations.
Come again after dinner and | will be
ready for you; but pay down five shil-
lings."
The man, who had intended to have
his fun gratis resisted, but the doctor de-
clared he never let any one down from
the stage till he had paid something.
"Besdes," said The doctor, how can
trust your You say you are liar, and
have no memory, SO you will either break
your promise or forget all about it.
A loud laugh from the crowd expressed
their acquiescence in the justice Of the
claim, and the poor fool, molens voIems,
was compelled to lay down the cash. No
one supposed that he would come again,
but he still hoped that he might turn the
tables, and presented himself at the ap-
pointed hour. The doctor received him
with great gravity, and addressing the
audience said:
"Gentlemen may think it joke, but |
assure them on the honor Of a gentleman,
that ii is a very serious affair; and l
hereby engage to return the money, if
the bystanders do not acknowledge the
cure, and that | am fairly entitled to the
reward
The man set down-was furnished with
a glass of water-the doctor produced a
box of flattened black pills, and to show
that they were perfectly innocent, atfec-
ted to swallow three himself. He then
gave one to the man who after many wrv
faces, bit into starting up splitting and
suffering, and EXCLAIMED
"Why, hang me, doctor, if it isn't cob
bler's wax! "
"There," said the doctor, lifting up
both hands, "did ever any body witness
so sudden-so miraculous a recovery
He is evidently cured oflying, for he has
told the truth instantly, and as to memo
ry, my good fellow" continued he pat
ting him on the back, elf ever you forget
this, call on me and pll return you the
