RUELETEN NO. 2.

TIME GREAT FLOOD of lS47 will be long re-
i membered in many parts OF the West The
swollen streams seemed to know no bounds; but RS
ing higher and higher carried dismay to the inhabi-
tants. Merchants were obliged to remove their wares
from the rivers sides to remoter places; families we've
compelled To desert their dwellings,; the poor suffered
more severely than language can describe. The pub
lie authorities We're called on to administer aid and
counsel. In short, a great publlccalamlty had oc-
cured.
Well would it be if the sad consequences. Of the
Flood had ceased when the waters subsidized But no.
UThe retireing waves left vast alluyial deposites,
which in a few months MUST give out that deleterious
miasm which produces bilious diseases.
What says the celebrated DR.. Ferguson on this
point? Answer: The cause OF bilious arrangement
has its principal source in halfdried margins drivers
All history and experience proves this theory: When
the British army encapped on the plains OF Estrem-
adura, at a time when the river Guadlana had become
dry after a flood, remittent and intermittent levers
ragged among the troops with such destructive maiig-
nifty that they came nigh being extirpated.
The Graetenberg Company, therefore, earnestly
call the attention of the entire West to their most ex-
traof Urinary and celebrated series OF Antl-BillIous
Medicines. In every locality where there is the
slightest tendency to any form OF Fever, Fever and
Ague, Dumb Ague and the like, the inhabitants
should at once send to the General Agent Of the dis
trict and have a Graefenberg Depot established near
them Were this done, and the Graefenberg Vegeta-
BE Pills and Health BitIers used according to direc-
tons, there would be no fear ofbiliious diseases,
So important are the Graef. nberg Medicines to the
people of the West, that the following steps SHOULD be
Immediately taken.--
lst; Every neighborhood should have its GraeGen
berg Depot.
BY addressing the General Agent of any district
this can be secured. \
I'd. Families should club together and get an imme-
diate supply.
Sd. Emigrant Societies and other philanthropic
bodies should furnish them TO the needy,
By such means bilious diseases will be entirely pre-
vented.
The other Medicines of the Company are most en-
inently adapted to the diseases for which they are re-
and consist of the following:-
The Graefenberg Eye Lotion, the Children's Pana-
cea, the Green Mountain Ointment, the Consump-
tive's Balm, the Dysentery Syrup.

The SNAKE AND THE WooDPEcKER.-We
have noticed in many places a very wicked and
very improbable practice, VIZ: boys or men
standing sentinel in orchards witha gun, shoot
ing woodpeckers. In any country and partic-
ularly in this, where orchards generally are. so
poorly taken care of. the woodpeckers are Of
great advantage in the way of killing insects
and worms. 1t was once thought that thess
birds pecked into the fuit tree f3r the purpose
of getting the sap; if that was the case they
could find trees ia our woods of native growth,
containing sap much more palatable thanecan
be found in our orchards. The fact is they
hunt after and destroy much of the vermin that
infest, and in very many cases kill our most
valuable fruit trees. When there are orchards
verv much infested with worms, the woodpeck-
ers in all probability cannot save it, but we
have no doubt that they have saved many an
orchard by devouring the worms and insects
before they became numerous. They are the
open enemies of all noxious reptiles. Not long
ago we were riding by an orchard, and our at
tention was attracted bv the incessant clatter
of some two or three dozen Of these sap-suck-
ers. We knew from the nature of the birds
that some thing unusual mcst be going on, and
we hitched our horse and proceeded cautiously
to the spot. On coming near we discovered a
child, a little girl. asleep; we could hear other
children at a distance at play. On getting still
closer we saw the cause of the birds uneasi-
ness-there, within three feet of the innocent
one, lay, coiled up, and striking at the birds
as they pounced down upon him on every side,
a large venomous serpent; we procured a large
stick, and unperceived got a stroke at him, and
following it up with others soon despatched
him. The child had been at play withthe rest,
and becoming wearied, had lain down and fall
en- asleep.

We are credibly informed, that whole meadows,
on which the grass was unusually heavy, rotted to
the ground and was not fit to be cut. In Indiana and
Illinois, the sickness was so general, that there was
not enough well persons to attend upon the sick,
whose sutfr rings were protracted by a want OF prop
er remedies, as well as of good nursing. Much OF this
suffering might have been prevented, had every fam
teract the effects OF this mlasma, with which the att

MLANE'S LIVER PILLS"
These Pills are the prescription Of an eminentPhy-
stefan in Monongahala Co. Virginia, and were used
by him in his private practice as a remedy IN bilious
complaints, for years before he thought OF offering
them to the public. Such, however, was the success
of the Pills, and so great the number OF persons BEN
Gifted by them, that the making of the quantity requi-
site to supply the increasing demand, began to inter-
fere materially with the time required 10 attend TO
his practice. To prevent this he has made arrange
ments with the house Of KIDD & Co. No. 60 Wood
Street, Pittsburg, Pa. to prepare and vend them,
where the genuine may be procured at all times land
in any reasonable quantity.
These Pills are not recommended as a panacea for
all the ills that flesh is heir to, but in all affections
of the Liver and in all bilious complaints, they stand
without a rival. All who have ever used them, give
them the preference over all other Pills, and cannot be
persuaded to exchange those which they ind expert
ence to be mid, SAFE, and efectuat, for any other, even
though they may be sugar coated, or so drastic as to

A SINGULAR RACE OF PEoPLE.-The Chris
ian Observer of Calcutta gives a notice of a
singular race of people called the Cathies, who
inhabit a part OF GuzeYat. They are worship
pers of the Sun. as are the adoring Parsees
s'These people are supposed bysome to be the
ancient Cathie, who in time of Alexander;s
invasion, occupied a portion of the Punjaub,
near the confluence of the five rivers. Among
the Cathies there ore no distinctions of caste.
Besides priests, they have an official class Of
persons called bards, who possess authority al
most equal to tllatof the Druids. They become
security for the payment of debts, the conduct
ofindividuals who have misbehaved, and the
appearance of persons in pending actions, either
civil or criminal. On the same terms they con-
duct travellers and caravans through districts
infested with robbers, in a state of war.
"If a troop of predatory horse appears, the
bard commands them to retire, and brandishine
his dagger, takes a solemn oath that if they
plumber the persons under his protection, he
will stab himself to the heart and bring upor
their heads the guilt of shedding his blood
Such is the yeneration in which he is held a;
a person o scelestial origin, and such is the hor
ror of being the cause of his death, that the
threat in almost every instance deters then
from making the premeditated attack. The re
lieion Of these people consists ofisttle else thar
an alteration of the sun. They invoke the OBJ
ject oftheir worship before commencing any
greatundertaking, and if a plundering expedi
ton be successful. a portion of the money stol
en- is consecrateJ TO the service of religion
The only functions of the priests are to cele-
brate marriages and funeral solemnities. They
have but one sacred building-ihe temple-sit
uated near Thaum. dedicated to the =
tanning an hinge of that luminary. The sizt
of the Cathies isabave the average, often ex
ceeding six feet. ffae women are tall, and oft
en- handsome; generally speaking modest anc
faithful to theirtlords. The Cati!ies have ne
restrictions of any sort regarding food ordrink.
