ESSENCE OF COFFEE.

A BOUT two years ago a new discovery
IA W made in Europe, consisting of a
substitute for the ordinary store coffee, called
Essence of Coffee, which has gone into gen.
eral use with astonishing rapldity, not only
among the poorer classes, who at once dis
pensed with the use of the celebrated Chick
Dry Coffee, but is now in general use in the
weallhiest families and The first hotels, and
IS highly recommended by the medical fac
ulty.
II is extracted from pure, wholesome veg
etables, and excels all similar preparations

either in this country or in Europe. Its SUI
perior quality has already been attested to in
the cities by some of the most eminent phys
icians, aud a number of the most distinguish.
ed of the clergy and other highly respectable
citizens. Coffee made from this essence ac-
cording TO the prescription obtains a more
delicious and pleasant favor than the COM
mon store coffee, and is certainly more
wholesome, especially for persons in deli.
cate health, which will be admitted by eve.

to four pounds of store coffee, will be bright
and clear without the application of any
other ingredient 10 clarity or settle it. The
public are therefore invited 10 give this es-
sence at least a trial before they condemn it.

THE END OF HUNGARY.

NATIONS, like individuals have their youth,
their manhood, and their old age; and so,
too. have races of men. We do not know
more striking instance of this truism
than is presented in the history of the
Hungarians.
The Magyars were originally an Asiatic
tribe, and form a branch of the Finnic
race, as is proved by their ply sical char
acteristics, not less than by their language.
They first appeared in Europe al the be-
ginning of the ninth century. Their
| career, until the fury of the onset was
spent, was one of incessant victory
Armed with bows and arrows, and mounted
on fleet horses, they were invincibe by
any force that Earope could muster. They
swept up the Danube like a DESTROYING
whlrlwInd, until their territories extended
from far below Belgrade TO far above
Vienna, so that not only what is now
hungary, but vast territories contiguous
to II, owned their sway. From this central
seat of power, they soon spread their
ravages on every side. They invaded
Italy, ihey Numbered AT the gates of Rome;
they even carried their war.cry into the
heart of France. For nearly two centu-
rIes, the Magyars were TO Western Europe,
what the Turks subsequently, became,
race as hated as they were feared, nation
of warriors whom nothing could oppose
But the horsemen, whom the feudal
chlvalry of France and Germany could
not resist, Christianity finally subdued.-
lhe first Magyars were healhens. They
Mated the Franks as men of hostile race,
out they hated them worse as believers in
different religion. When. however,
molly missionaries, disregarding the perlls
that would environ them in the midst of
savage heathens, penetrated into Hungary
and preached In the tumultuous camps of
the WILD conquerors the peaceful doctrines
of the Gospel, mighty change took
