attend to any business, my legs arms and fn-
gers were swollen dreadfully, the muscles were
contracted and / suffered the most excrutiating
pain / applied some five or six bottles of
Mastang Liniment, il had no more effect than
so much grease. obtained one doz bottles OF
Volcanic Oil Liniment of your agent, MIR. Pike,
for which shall ever feel grateful to him, and
in five days l was entirely well, and take plea
sure in recommending it to the public, and
also add that one Of my horses got cast in the
stable and was unable tc stand up. In tie
morning made one of my boys rub on some of
your Linimenta and in three hours he could walk
about the yard, apparently that nothing had
happened to him. Mr.. Davies and others of
nv neighbors were present at the time and they
concur with me in saying that no planter should
be without a supply of this invaluable medi-
cine on hand L remain yours &c,

PREPARATION FOR DEATH.-When Won
lie down at night, compose your spirits as if
you were not to wake till the heavens be no
more. And when you awake in the morn
ing, consider that new day as your last, and
live accordingly. Surely that night COM
eth, of which you will never see the morn
ing, or that morning Of which you will new
er see the night; but which of your morn.
ings or nights will be such, you know not.
Let the mantle of worldly enjoyments hang
loose about you, that it may be easily drop
ped when death comes to carry you into
another world. When the corn is forsak-
ing the ground, it is ready for the sickle;
when the fruit is ripe, it falls off the tree
easily. So when Christians heart is tru-
ly weaned from the world, he is prepared
for death, and it will be the more easy for
him. A heart disengaged from the world
is heavenly one, and then we are ready
for heaven, when our heart is there before
us.-Burton. 4 v aa}sy

interesting Incident.

The Burlington Free Press gives the fol-
lowing account Of an interesting incident at.
the Alumni dinner. The fourth regular
toast being:
"IRe yfirt Graduating Class of fifty years
Ago.
CHARLES ADAMS, Esq.,, of Burlington,
arose: "There were four of u.s." says he,
'who graduated fifty years ago." He stop
ped a moment, two white haired men rose
beside him, and the three (the survivors of
the Class of 1900 stood in silence. The
effect was electric. Wonder, that of COL
lege class of half century ago, three, ,tourtas
should yet survive, and be able to meet at
such time, and thoughts of the emotions
with which they looked upon each other and
their numerous successors in the path on
which they were the pioneers, filled the
minds OF all present, and after a moments
silence broke forth in deafening APPLAUSE
Charles Adams, Wheeler Barns, Justus p
Wheeler and Jarius KEENAN,, formed the
class. OF the last, who died many years
ago, MIR. Adams gave brief sketch. He
was, he said, man of uncommon talent.-h
Beyond doubt he was the co.author with
Irving and Paulding, of "Salmagundi," and
had he lived would have attained an eIeva-
ted fame. He went on to give interesting
"reminiscences of Mr. Saunders, their old and
sole instructor, and of the first days of the
University when the primitive pine forest
covered densely the spot where the college
buildings now stand, and when he and his
class mates rolled the logs and burned the
stumps where the first clearing on the ground
was made. Igaas
