1.-THE National Inte1ligencer says !:
A respectable citizen, in communicating
the annexed recipe, states that it has
been found entirely efectual in some re-
cent cases:
Cure FOR DYsErTEnY, OR DrARnHEA
-Discoveovered by DR.. Perkins, of sa-
lem, Massachusetts, many years since.
Saturate any quantity of the best vim
egar with common salt; to one large ia
blespoonful of this solution add four times
the quantity of boiling water; let the pa
tient take of this preparation, as hot as
it can be swallowed, one teaspoonful once
every half minnie until the whole is ia
ken: this for an adult. The quantity
may be varied according to the age, size,
and constitution of the patient. If ne
cessary, repeat the dose in six or eight
hours. Carefully avoid keeping this
preparation in vessels partaking of the
qualities of lead or copper. The success
of the remedy depends much on prepa-
ring and giving the dose as above direc-
ted. In order to keep the preparation
hot, it would be well to place the cup
which contains it in a bowl containing
boiling water, otherwise it will cool be-
fore being taken.
Every family in the United States
ought to know of this recipe, which is
remarkable for its efficacy.

The Monument to Knud I've r.
son.

The committee of twenty citizens of
Chicago, entrusted with the labor of
raising funds for the erection of the a.
bove monument, have reported as fol-
lows. Although the details of the case
have been before the public, yet the OBJ
ject of the Association is so praisewor-
thy that we publish the report in full.
On the ninth day Of August last a
party of rowdy boys, from fourteen to
eighteen years of age, attempted to.force
a little boy about ten years old, named
knud Iverson, to steal fruit for them,
from the garden of Daniel Elstont Esq.
of this city. On his persisting to re-
fuse to steal, they s'ducked' him in the
river till he was drowned. He was
son of one Of our most estimable Ner-
wegian citizens--a member Of the Evan
gelical Lutheran Church. His little
son was carefully instructed in the prin-
ciples of Christianity he was so intel
ligent, and had given such clear and de-
clded evidence of piety, that he had been
admitted as member of the same church.
His place in the Sabbath school was never
vacant, and his lessons were always
learned. Such was this noble boy.
A proposition to erect monument tc
his memory, with subscription of ten
dollars, came from Nathan Ely. ESQ,
President Of the Peter Cooler Insurance
Company of New York and was Sec
onded by Thos. B. Bryan, Esq. of this
city, with a subscription of one hundred
dollars. The undersigned have been
appointed committee, by meeting of
citizens, to take this matter in charge.
AS others may wish to contribute to e.
rect monument to that noble little Nor
wegian boy, who would rather die than
steal, we respectfully request those pa
pers that have copies the account of this
incident, and all others to give this also
an Insertion. Who wishes to help per-
petuate the principle, to maintain which
this little hero lost his life /? Contribu-
tions may be sent to the treasurer, S.
l.. Brown, Chicago, Illinois. They will
be duly acknowledged in the Chicago
papers.
1t is desirable that at least one thous-
and dollars should be collected, and five,
and even ten times that sum might be
appropriately used. The COMMITTEES
purpose, with the permission Of the
common council, to erect the monument
upon one Of the public squares Of the CT

''Hor Conn Here's your nice Hot

IS we sat over the desk, this cry came
up in soft plaintive voice under our
window, which told us of one Of the ways
Of the poor TO exc out means of subsis-
lance IN this oyer-burdened, i'll fed and
worse-lodged home of misery-of so
many without means, who are constantly
erowding into the dirtiest purlieus Of

are exposed to the daily chance of death
from some sudden outbreaking epidemic
like that now desolating tho same kind
Of streets, in New Orleans, and swallow

same class of poverty stricken, uncom-
tOrtably-provided-for human beings, who
know not how or have not the power,
TO flee 10 the healthy hills and green
4 fields Of the country. Here they live
liza holes almosts as hot as the hot corn,
the cry of which rung in our ears from
dark till midnight.
slot corn! hot corn! here's your
nice hot corn, rose up in faint, child
like voice, which seemed to have been
aroused by the sound of our step as we
were about entering the Park, while
1.-THE City clock told the hour when
ghosts go forth upon their midnight ram

& had given us rap, fer the sound seemed;tc
come out of one of the iron posts which
a stands as sentinels over the main en-
trance forbidding all vehicles to en-

to pull and tumble out of the way one OF
the aforesaid posts, which is not of ten

always is out of its place giving free
shgress to the courtyard, or livery sta
DE grounds of the City Hall, which, in
consideration of the growth of a few
miserable dusty brown trees and doubt
jal colored grass patches, we call "the
Park"
Looking over the post we discovered

q an emaeiated little girl about II years
pa whose dirty frock was nearly the

A NuT FOR PHYsleLoeIsTs.-Mrs.
Iceland, of Nora, (Apple River station J
on the morning of the 3lst ult., was de-
livered Of a fine son, bearing in each
hand, or rather attached to the middle
joint Of each little finger by its proper
stem, perfect tomatoe. The mother
had bestowed unusual care upon her to-
matoes in the garden, and hoped to have
them ripe before her confinement. The
specimens brought by the son were a.
bout the size and stage Of maturity of
those in the garden, and could not be dis
from them by the closest scru-

seen suspended in alcohol, at the house
of Mr.. Iceland, merchant at Nora.

Trapping.

As SATAN once was wandering
In quest of human prey,
His footsteps so directed were,
AT length he came this way:
And finding in the Badger State
So much he lilS'd so well,
"'Tis here" said he, ..I'll set my traps.
And try for game spell.v
Then strait went he to Madison,
All loaded down with gold
And then unto the Capitol
He march'd up very bold.
his wares, he there exhibited,
And prais'd them long and loud,
Unto weak and wicked throng,
Which formed quite crowd:
He show'd them pens of purest gold,
And paper all so fine;
And much rejoic'd was he to see
Their eyes begin to shine.
He then expos'd unto their view
Some knives of finest steel;
And much reloic'd was he to see
That they began to feel.
Then seeing that they ready were
Fen at his nod to GO,
He babe them all 'sDepart-so home,
And stay month or SOP
Now this he did to gain more time,
And get more game together,
Well knowing that they'd want their friends
To help them in bad weather.
And sure enough, inst so it was,
Those he deceiy'd before
At once sent off long distances
To get together more.
Some pettifoggers, two or three
Of talants counted rare,
A special invitation had,
T. attend Satanic Fair.
And when the time had fully come
That they were tod to meet,
His Majesty rejoic'd to see
That each was in his seat:
Some seventy thousand (more or less)
He then expos'd to view,
OF coined gold and silver too
All shining, bright and new.
The bait was good, they took it well,
They would not say him nay;
And so at once his traps he sprung:
That was his lucky day.

DEATH OF ADMIRAL CocKB uRr.--The
English papers received by the last stea-
mer announce the decease of Admiral
Sir George Cockburn, aged eighty-two
years. He seems to have been regard
ed as the most distinguished officer in the
British navy. Certainly he had seen a
great deal of service, had received many
honors, and was doubtless brave but
rough, rude son of Neptune. The only
interest which the American public can
feel in the demise or memory of Admiral
Cock5urn arises from the part he bore
IN the war of 1912 between his country
and ours. He conducted the British ma
val operations in the waters of the Che
sapeake during that war, and, with all
allowance for the necessarily harsh &C.
compartments of war, we are sorry TO
Say that those operations were often at
tended by excuses which reflected no
credit on the commander who ordered or
sanctioned them. They were such GER
tainly as to excite deep indignation
throughout this country, and especially
in this city, where his greatest act of
Vandalism was committed. We refer to
these things now only as a retrospection
due to the occasion, unprompted by any
remaining bitterness on our part, altho'
we had more personal cause perhaps than
any other individuals for resentful feel
ings at the time National Intelligent

mother, and sister too tame and spirltless
to engage theirfattentions and command
their solicitude ,have unsexed themselves,
left the home4hearth cold and desolate,
and, with ideas and costume alike eleya-
ted, are struggling to stand at the head
of this motley crusade, that, like Peter
the Hermit, they may rescue the holy
land where woman's rights are entomb-
ed from the grasp Of the infdel man.
Nor is this all. The ultima thule of per-
lection is not to be attained until the SUI
premacy of kindredism is vindicated and
established until both sexes shall pur-
sue the same vocations in common UNI
til the barriers which nature erected be-
tween colors and races, in physical de-
velopments and dissimilar tastes, shall
be Frustrated by amalgamation nor, final
ly, until entire communities shall dine to-
Igether from one universal platter and
cleanse their linen in common tub.
By the interposition of kindred ge-
MUS and similar class of modern seers
the teachings Of philosophy, too. have
been rendered useless through .the'occult
process Of spiritual manifestations, and
Divine revelation superseded and rem
dered useless by the receipt of later in
itelligence from the land whittier we are
fastening. The immortal yet obedi emf
and convenient spirits of the departed
appear like the shade of the ancient pro-
phet on the summons Of some modern
witch of Endor, and reveals what is do
ing on the other side by plying spiritual
knuckles upon substantial and mat erial
things! Pitiful ,humiliating, and shameless
delusion! the green-room where tragedies
are rehearsed to be enacted in the mad
house; in its influences corrupt, sensual,
and devilish, at var rance with every pro-
cess of reasoning, subversive of the COM
mon delicacies and decencies of life, and
in derogatlon of all religion, revealed or
natural. Its heresies are more threat
ening to the cause of morals than the IL
bertanism of the worst ages, and more
hurtful to the cause of religion than the
works Of Paine and Voltairc sown broad
cast among the people. While we can
look with indulgent compassion upon the
humiliating mummeries Of heather idol
airy, people whose mission is to incul-
cate the principles of civil and religious
Ii erty, and whose government rests up
on their virtue and intelligence, should
rescue their history from contamination,
and boot all such impositions beyond the
pale Of society.
