Springtime.

Hoary Winter reluctantly %retires, but young
Spring, with the newness Of youth, comes
tripping along in her robes of green, accom-
panied by the songs Of birds, the hum of in
sects, and the fragrance Of flowers. Grim
winter, as he retreats, casts back scowling
glances, and, though deprived of his empire
and compelled to be on the move, he has oc-
casionally revisited us of late, to hush The
songs Of the birds, and make US gather again
around the pleasant Preside; but still he is
on the move and Spring advances. The soft
air now touches our checks, and the earth is
putting on her green mantle, and the birds,
the blithe, the gleeful singing birds, are
again with us, making the air vocal with
their sweet music. Soon our paths will be
strewn with flowers, the trees will have on
their foliage and Nature, on every hand, will
present 10 the loving eye soul-inspiring
beauties. But when will springtime come
TO the slavel When will the winter Of his
soul Terminate Not that winter with
its cheerful Preside, with its fond circle Of
friends and relatives, connected with The
thousand pleasant associations which cluster
around it, for he knows moi such an ONE
But when will that winter of the soul which
is 10 him like an amending night, with no
star, no warning-when will it end We
ask you when shall this give place to a glo-
rious ~springtime for the slave! We ask you,
brOtheT-we ask you, sister, for it is for you
to say, when this winter shall end and spring
time come to those who are now piniHg in
bouIagc.-s,

The Wafer -Cnre Treatment.

IlU Lttl OuiO ItOuaiiShl'
We most heartily rejoice at the progress
,ha, the reform in the manner of treating the
sick is making. As the public mind be-
comes more and more enlightened on this
subject, it becomes more and more interested.
Wdter-Cure Inirmaries are springing up in
various quarters, and the most encouraging
and happy results ensue from the application
of Water in the treatment of disease.
DR.. J. D. Cope, of this place, enlarged his
establishmentlas fall. This spring he again
builds an addition to his lnfrmary. The
Doctors treatment Of patients is attended
with the most encouraging results and the
system upon which he p~ractises is commend
ing itself even to the vendors of quack medi-
zines. We cannot here give the reader a de-
tailed account Of the numerous cures effect
ed at his lnfrnary but will give some idea
of the way the water treatment works.
One individual comes to the lnfirmary from
The far West, with an ague Of eight months
standing, which, without the use of any
nauseating, sickening medicines, yields TO
the water treatment in a few days, and in less
than two weeks he is seen with a complex
ion glowing with ruddy health. Another re-
covers from the effects of a dislocation in an
incredibly short time. Oilers are quickly
cured of billions or congestive fevers. The
scarlet fever yields so readily TO the treat
ment, that il would seem as though children
need neither die nor suffer much with that
disease, which has heretofore proved so fatal
to the young.
But a short time since, a manufacturer and
vender of patent medicines, who will sell
a box of %cure-ail pills for IS cents, to be used
in trifing with the health of other peoples
children, called on DR.. Cope to apply the
water treatment 10 his own sick children -
In pulmonary affections, too, this treat
ment is very eficacious, as we can testify
from practical experience.
Most sincerely do we hope and trust that
the old, barbarous and life-destroying system
Of drugging, bleeding and blislering, may be
exploded, and the healthy, pleasant, invigo-
rating and renovaling water treatment take
its PLACES.

Some men are not permitted TO govern, but
are compelled 10 submit TO the rule Of the go
vernors. Others do not choose TO govern, but
they are also forced 10 submit. Now who
are the governorsl Why they are those who
having tho privilege Of governing, exercise it
and in exercising it, select their agents at
the ballot-box, assigning TO each Of these his
respective duties, requiring an oath from each
that he will faithfully perform certain pre-
scribed duties, and by means Of these agents
that part of the people who govern, carry oil
all the machinery of government; build ships
Of war, manufacture muskets and swords, hire
soldiers, establish jails and prisons, &c., awe
the slave into submission, or if he refuses to
submit, they march up a file Of those hired
soldiers and shoot him through. Now, rea-
der, who are the governors of this country
You cannot answer that question but by say
ing, the voters Of the country.
Well, it is a part of the object Of the go
| yelnmcnt to do wrong. Yes, you must ac-
knowledge that it is, notw outstanding you are
told that the Constitution is anti-slavrry.-
You well know that a part Of its object is to
d. wrong, and hence you cannot innocentIy
engage in governing. But if the Emperor
Nicholas can resign and cease TO govern with
out leaving the country, cannot you also cease
to govern without leaving the county and
if those whom the Emperor Nicholas governs
by compulsion are innocent of the crimes
he commits in governing them by compulsion
or force, so you will in this country, though
governed by a superior force, be innocent of
the crimes those commit who govern you in
common with the slave and with all others who
do not consent to this exercise of authority.-s.

fidence of an enlightened and intelligent public
from one end of the continent TO the other The
testimony of thousands who have been relieved &

stands unrivalled-at the head of all other medi
