THE PRESERVATION OF THE EYES.

"You should never touch your eye but with your
elbow" OIL Prorer6.
There is tradition at least as old as the Tamud,
that the eyes are strengthened by drawing the
hlgers across the oyelids in horizontal direction.
ExPresidont Adams, who was affected with an
obstruction Of the tear passage, used this method
10 get rid Of the accumulated uid, and the ancient
practice brought into greater notice by the
example of the illustrious statesman. The obso-
lee theory, that the interior surface of the eyeball
becomes hattoned as age advances was again re-
vycd, and il becomes business to advertise in
structons for kneading the organ into shape with
the fingers! For the moderate sum Of ten dollars.
the tell-tale spectacles might be laid aside, and
anciont ladies and gentlemen be enabled to sew and
read with all the sharpness of a miss in her teens.
IL cannot be expected that operations founded ON
false theory can be safe in practice. 1t is untrue
that the outer surface of the eye becomes fiattcr
with advancing age, and therefore manipulations
to restore what is wanting, in an organ so delicate
OF structure that rude push may be followed by
perpetual darkness, should be avoided. The writer
was lately called to visit an aged female, who had
been suffering aeutely for months after submitting
while in health 10 the manipulations of n rejuven-
ating itinerant. The lens disocated and press
cd on the sensitive nerves at the margin Of the
pupil. Other cases of injury attributed manipula-
tions, such as crosseyes, doubled vision, &C., have
come under the writer's notice. Last month, in
presence of the editor, he operated for cateract
in the case OF lady, whose vision, with the aid of
spectacles good until she was induced by plau-
sbo advertisements to pay for course Of lessons'
After the third lesson VISION became indistnct and
blindness ultimately followed. DIR. b. was called
10 examine gentleman who had always enjoyed
excellent sight until il was lost in a moment The
patient had been at party of friends, when a
person stepped suddenly behind him, and covering
both eyes with the hands, wished him to guess who
IL was. The former, without speaking word
endeavored 10 escape from the pressure, and when
the eyo-lids were opened he was entirely bereft of
sight Although there was not the least appearance
Of injury, yet the sniferer remained hopelessly
blind. From this melancholy example, DIR. b. con
ludes that the eyes arc liable to injury from
moderate pressure.
There Is a popular notion sanctioned even by
medical men, who ought TO know better that eyes
re preserved by opening them every morning in

The condition of the West Indian slave is better
and happier than that of the English pcasantry.--
Common assertion.
The land for me, the land for me-
Where every living soul is free:
Where winter may come, where storms may rave
But the tyrant dare not bring his slave.
should hate to dwell in u summer land
Where flowers spring up on every hand
Where the breeze is glad and the heavens aro fair
But the taint Of blood is every where.
saw peasant sit in his door,
When his weekly toll in the field was o'or;
lie sat on the bench his grandsirc made,
lie sat in his fathers walnut shade.
Twas the golden hour Of an April morn;
Lightly the lark sprang from the corn,
The blossoming trees shono pure and white
And the young leaves quvered in the light:
The Sabbath bells, with holy glcc,
Were ringing DER woodland, heath, and lea;
Twas season whose living influence ran
Through air, through earth, and the heart Of man.
No feeble joy was that PEASANTS lot,
As his children gambolcd before his cot
And archly mimicked the tolls and cares
That coming life shall make truly theirs.
But their mother, with breakfast call, anon
Came forth, and their merry mask was gone:
Twas beautiful sight, as, meekly still,
They sat- in their joy, on the cottage sill.
The sire looked on thcm-hc looked to the skies;
read his hearts language in his eyes;
Lightly he rose, and lightly he trod,
| To pour out his soul in the house of God
And is his the man, thou canting knayc,
Thou hast dared to compare with the weeping slave
Away! find one slave in the world to cope
With him, in his heart his home, his hope
lie is not on thy lands of sin and pain,
Scared Scared with the lash and cramped with pain
In thy burning cline, where the heart is cold,
And man, like the beast, is bought and sold
But, o, thou slanderer false and vile,
Dare but to harm that garden stile-
Dare but to outrage that lowly thatch--
Dare but to force that peasants latch,
And thy craven soul shall wildly quake
AT the thunder peal the dead might wake;
For myriad tongues Of fire shall sound
As if every stone cried from the ground
The indignant thrill like flame shall spread,
Till the isle itself rocks meath thy tread,
And voice from people, and peer, and throne,
Shall ring in thine ears, Atone atone!
For Freedom is an equal guest
In prnccly hall and in peasants nest
The palace is filed with her living light,
And she watches the hamlet day and night
Tho land for mc-thc land for me,
Where every living soul is free,
Where winter may come, where storms may rave,
But the tyrant dare not bring his slave

MISSIONARY WOOING.

for Immortality ria the palate of some epicurean

cloak, pump-handle figure, an extraordinarily
high shirt-colar and pair of green specacles, he
was accepted. With due decorum he received his
public and private Instructions" was breakiastcd,
and dinnercd, and tca-ed ut the houses of all the
leading church members and dcacons and became

The Flying Dolphin" lay at her wharf; waiting
for propitious gale, when Moses bethought him
of one little luxury with which he had failed to
provide himself viz; a wife. This foreordained
omission invested him with now interest in the
discerning eyes of The Board" who magnani-
mously gave him days grace, to find Mrs. May

a clean dickey, some religious newspapers and
letters of recommendation to three "dyed-in-the-

his hymenial researches.
His first call was at Deacon Jordon,s The dea-
con was an, but his daughter Nancy and the fire
was out; both Of which considerations induced
Moses to decline accepting brother Jordans invita-
ton TO stay and chat over church affairs poor
unfortunate Nancy, loosing, in his departure, her
irst and last chance of doubling the Cape of Good
Hope.
The next hour found Moses in tho house of bro

basin of cold water. Some Of the worst eases Of
ptcrygiunl, or film ON the surface Of the eye has
been witnessed in those who boastcd of this prac
ticc. When drop of water gets into the wind
pipe the nostril the ear irritation is produced
and when the eye is opened under water the sen.
sation Is anything but agreeable. The eye is
fabricated 10y u secretion admirably adapted to
facilitate the motions of the lid over its surface. and
as this secretion is partially souablc in water, il
Is as inconsistent with common to wash IL
away, as il is to the oil from the wheels OF
machinary.
When the general health is robust, IL is astonish-
ing what an amount of labor the organ of vision
will endure yet when IL is depressed. especially
by mental disturbance during periodical function
they easily dcrangcd by too close application
to business. When they have become weak much
for their preservation depends on the proper man
agement Of the light to which they are exposed
When the light is in excess, IL should be diminished
and when it is deficient labor should be discontin-
ucd. The light Of the blue sky and the yerdurc Of
the fields are the culors to which it will endure with
most ease. The flame Of good oil lamp is more
rugular than gas candles and is therefore pref
cradle. The intermittent Pickering Of gas is pur-
ticularly injurious and it produces constant CON
fractions and dilations Of the pupil and undue
exercise of the whole organ. by placing shade

Is amcliOratcd for artificial light contains super
abundance of the yellow and the rcd rays, but is
deficient in the violet. BY allowing il to pass ihro'

OF day, and It is better adapted for continued APP

! The gist of the whole matter is Just this: let
your eyes alone, and they may serve you all your
days; should they become out Of order, apply to
that very important parsonage, your family physi-
cian, and he will instruct you how to "mind your
eyes. s.'-N J.. Scdlpd
