Of medical treatment whatever About fourteen years
since. consequence of frequent exposure to the
weather in the discharge of my. pastoral duties,
became subject TO a severe Chronic rheumatism, which
for year after year, caused indescribabe anguish
Farther: in the winter of as and 46 in conse
quenee Of preaching great deal in my own and
various other churches in this region, was attacked
by the Bronchitis which soon became severe as
10 require immediate suspension OF my pastoral
labors Ny nervous system thoroughly pros
t'aed, and my Bronchitis became worse, also did
that these disorders connected with each other
through the medium of the Nervous System. In the
whole pharmacopoia there seemed 10 be no remedial
agent which could reach and recuperate my Nervous
System every thing that had tried for this purpose had
completely failed. At last led by my friends to
anime your inventions. and Though with no very
guine hopes of their efcency) determined to try the
effect of the application of the GALVANIC BELT AND
NECKLACE, with the MAGNETIC FLUID This was
IN June 1916. To MY GREAT ANNOUNCEMENT, IN TWO
DAYS mY DYSPEPSIA HAD GONE; IN EIGHT DAYS WAS
ENABLED TO RESUME PASTORAL LABoRs NOR HAVE

SLAVE TRApE.--An American
officer writing from the naval slatio1
on the southwest coast Of Africa ID
the Philadelphia Inquirer, says of thd
slave trade =" When l was ordered
to this station l thought like a majority
Of persons, that the suppression of the
slave trade by cruizers was impossible,
and / ridiculed the very idea. But
eighteen months of cruizing and OBJ
servation have convinced me TO the
contrary. We are now about TO leave'
the coast of St. Helena, on our way
to Porto Praya, with the gratifying
knowledge that the slave trade is at Its
lowest ebb-morc completely broken
up than it has ever before been. Early
in lS49, seven or eight suspected
vessels, and all under American colors,
were at anchor at Ambriz, the greatest
slave depot on the coast Information
of the fact being given to Commander
Gregory, this brig was Immediately
dispatched to that point, and in less
thar six months two large prizes were
made and sent to the United States.
Since then not an American SLAYER
has appeared south of the equator.

THE PLACE WHERE MEN SHOULD DIE.

THE PLACE WHERE MEN SHOULD DIE.
How little recks it where men die,
When once the moments past,
In which the dim and glazing eye,
Has looked on earth its last;
Whether beneath the sculptured urn
The cofined form shall rest,
Or, in its nakedness, return
Back to its mother's breast,
Death is q common friend or foe,
AS different men may hold,
And at its summons each must 60
The timid and the bold
But when the spirit, free and warm,
Deserts it as it must
What matters where the lifeless form
Dissolves again to dust
'Twere sweet indeed to close Our eyes
With those we cherish, near;
And waited upwards by their sighs,
Soar to some calme- sphere;
But whether on the scaifJld high,
Or in the battles van,
The fittest place where man can die,
Is where he dies for man.

Mr.. President, and gentlemen
ladies: / arise to advocate the afll
tive of this question; that Is to,
that Mr.. Columbus did greater
eft to mankind than General "
ington. In order more fully to d
the interrogatory just propoundefl
enter fully into the merits OF the
1 will give a brief, succinct and
densed account Of Mr. Columil
life and exploits. Sir, who was y
topher Columbus? Sir, echo ans'
the greatest man Of his times.
Columbus was the offspring of a
of the same name, who was an IL
nant basket-maker, in small
called Rome, situated on the
Tigers, stream which rises III
Pyraninc mountains, and flows
south -easterly course into the Gp|
Mexico. At an early age Colur
evinced a decided talent for the
and occupied the leisure hours Of
fancy in perusing books OF travel .
works on navigation. 1t was "
engaged in these pursuits that h
advertantly met with the work
Robinson and Crusoe, and CaI
Cook, and the definition he made
them was, that far away overl
trackless main, hitherto untroddei
the foot of man, was an undiscoy'
country. 4
i" Sir, the discovery of this contil
was the greatest invention OF the ,
1892. Ternandez's Island was
stepping stone TO the settlement OF
country, Sir, look around you /

countries traversed by steambq
railroads and telegraphs, and
yourself, would these things have b
if it hadn't been for Columbus! 4
your reply would be, Certainly J
SIR If il hadn't been for Mr..
lumbus General Washington woulf
have been born. But suppose he j
what then? What did Washing
ever do that was great benefit
this country There is much 8
about his talents for war. To be S
he performed several mastery
treats, but what's that an evidence
Sir, it is that he was a coward"
General Washington a cowar'

dare say it? Look at him at

Waterloo, the Cowpens, on the Pl0
of Marathon, at the Pyramids, at 5
mans Defeat, at Bad Axe, and
look at him at the battle OF n
Orleans"
-" General Washington at the bal
of Now Orleans 7" said a huge WOO
man, gesticulating violently; "
Speaker, is there such an ignoran
in the house Sir, any SCHOOL,
knows that the battle Of New Orle'
was ii; before Gen. Washington v
