CURE OF VIRULENT SMALL Poy, SCARLET
FEVER OR MEAsLEs.-This recipe was original
Iy furnished by Mr.. l.. Larkin, member of tho
Royal College of Surgeons, who youches for
it as medicine that will effect revolution in
the healing art as regards the prevention and
cure not only Of small pox. but also of measles
and scarlet fever, however malignant the type.
On the first appearance of fever and irrita-
tion on ushering in attacks, the subjoined mode
of treatment should at once be entered on
Take one grain each OF powdered foxglove
or dgitalis, VALUABLE in the ratio of its green
ness-the dark should bo rejected,) and l
of sulphatc of zinc, (this article is commonly
known as white vitrol) These should be
thoroughly rubbed in a mortar or other con-
venient vessel, with four or five drops of water.
This done, nogg or about four ounces more
with some syrup or sugar, should be added
OF this mixture a table spoonful should be
given to an adult, and two teaspoonfuls TO q
child, every second hour, until the symptoms
| of disease vanish. 80 49, =
Thus conducted, convalescencc, as If by
magic, will result. The action Of the rnedi.
cine is thus explained: The herb, by its febre
| qualities lays hold of the fever which it i'm.
part of q tonic, instantly restoring equilibrium.
1t may, however. be necessary further to
note that should tho bowels become obstruc-
tee in tho progress of the disease, (an evil in
no wise common) then drachm of the com
pound powder of jalap, and one grain of the
herb treated as above, formed into pastil
with syrup or sugar, should be given an adult
and half the quantity to child. This simple
medicine shuts out every other drug or form oi
treatement whatever, as totally unnecessary
| if not pernicous.

MAGISTRATE FOR A LITTLE WHILE.
BREACH OF PROMISE CASE.

Yesterday morning, directly ai1ei
breakfast, we stepped into Squire An
lderson's Office, as he requested us 10 &c
when he left, to read his papers and
use his writing materials II we should
have occasion to do so.
As ye-sat reading newspaper,
Stranger entered, who, by his appear
ance. indicated that he might belong to
The order of Outside barbarians."
He walked up to the bar of Justice
with firm step, and inquired, as he
caught our eye:
care you magistrate?"
Wishing to practise some for the pur-
pose of getting our hand in just to see
how it would seem to be a magistrate
for little while, we replied:
"We don't profess to be anything
else but a magistrate, just at present" "
"Well, / called TO see about little
love scrape-a sortof breach of prom
ise."
"Ah! Who's the Tilted -Lothario?"
we inquired.
"Oh, a young man in our neighbor-
hood,', he replied.
"Well, be kind enough to state the
individuals name. The new code rem
ders it obligatory on me to put the ques-
ton, and necessary for you to answer
it." - Esr fsgoJ ia sl.1-Eg q,
"Well, it's me-John Bothwick-if
you must know" esz,sesf..r e.. r.TJ GO
"All right; now for the girls name" !"
"Miss Sally Dugal, sir '.T
"Now, John, proceed and state your
case as briefly as possible"
"Well, you see 1 became acquainted
with Miss Dugal-"
"Was she handsome-faultless in
form and beautiful in expression"
"Yes; Mary was just as good look
ing as any girl in the neighborhood."
"No matter-these questions do not
come under the new code-proceed."
"Well, you see, Squire" said John,
"that I've been courting Sally for the
last year; went so often long towards
the last that lost a good situation, at
eight dollars a month and board. l
didn't care much about this if l had
only got Sal. But the other day l
thought I'd close the bargain, and asked
her to have me; but she spoke right up
and said she wouldn't have me, nor
never would.
"Now l want to know. Squire, if l
can't bring suit against her for damages
to say nothing about breach of prom
ise." s-
80. yes, certainly, you can institute
proceedings, of course you can"
"Well, do you think could get any
thing?" said he.
20, yes, most assuredly," we replied,
Chow much do you think l could
get?"
"Well, sir, should think by your
story that you would be very apt to get
mulcted in pretty heavy bill of costs, "
said we, laughing, finding it impossible
to keep a straight face on any longer.
The fellow turned on his heel, look
ing furious. remarking as he was about
leaving" You're a magistrate, I guess
in horn"

The neafest farmer is the best.
Each bog and marsh industrious drain,
Nor let vile bulks ldeform the plain,
Nor bushes on your headland grow,
For briars sloven culture show.
Neat be your barns, your houses neat,
Your doors be clean, your court-yards sweet,
Nor moss the sheltering roof enshroud,
Nor wooden panes the window cloud;
No filthy kennels foully flow,
Nor weeds with lanking poison crow;
But shade expand and fruit trees bloom, =
And Towering shrubs exhale perfume;
With pales your garden circle round - ---
