A Buffalo editor, hard pressed for copy
during the late drought, as well of news and
ideas as of rain, thus gave expression to his
feelings - The poorest blind horse, in the
most uncompromising bark-mi!l, has his mo-
ment Of relaxation. To him the sound of the
tannery bell announcing noon, is tocsin of
Joy, and he looks forward with grateful antic-
ipaiion to the praudial oats and mllfeed. The
wearisome round is stopped the unlubricated
gudgeons quaver out last squack and cease
their complaining the trace-chains rattle
over the animals back, and he even attempts a
youthful canler as he moves off, happy horse.
With him there are no aniicipatory woes he
works in a circle, but certain number of turns
are sure to bring respite. But with the ed
itor it is otherwise his life is, as Mr.. Man
telini feelingly remarks, 'one demd grind : his
machine never stops. Hot weather. head
aches, sickness at home, are no relief to his
perpetual round, for the paper must come out

Arab Children.

Rev. Mr.. Thompson, in his Photographic
Views Of Egypt, Past and Present. draws a
sad picture of the children in Egypt. He
says =
The sorriest sight ir the Arab village is
the children. Boys ten or twelve years old
are often seen stark naked, with the exception
Of little skull-cap, while younger urchins
spor, string of beads upon the simple apparel
nature gave them when they came into the
world. It is not the mere nakedness
of the child that annoys you; but their squal-
ssy and the shifiless condition in which they
seem TO grow up; and especially the swarms
Of flies that cover their eyes, nose, mouth, ears,
and turn their faces into runaing sores. This
il probably one cause OF ophthalmia disease
Of the eyes, j the plague of Egypt.
The heads of the boys are shaved, and Gov
cred with little caps The little girls are al
ways clad in some way, and the boys don't
seem to know the difference. Indeed, children
,ciH be happy somehow, and it is blessed
thing that they can be. But o, for Sabbath
schools and boys meetings in this land OF deg
radiation! II is the thought Of what these max
ed, sore-eyed urchins are TO be IN their condi-
sion here and their destiny hereafter, that
makes you. eyes water and your heart bleed as
YOU look upon them-for just now, that desti-
tute and crying child, whose mother sootbes il

mantle, may be more favored than the best

We are continually asked, What is the difference be-
tween Railways Regulators and ordinary pills
We answer that pills, they ordinarily prepared
and sold by different manufacturers, generally of
kinds-those which operate the bowels merely called
gatve pills, and those which excite the of the
liver and are called mercurial liver pills. Railways
Regulators resemble pills merely shape but differ in every
other characteristic.
They act not only the bowels, but the liver skin,
pancreas and Kidneys regulating each to healthy
action. They not drastic and give pain
gering the pateut with salvation mercurial pills do;
containing minerals in their composton they harm

lates, to 6 purge-good at all times.

A PREvENTrvE.-Many affections, such as
bowel difficulties, cramp in the stomach, ard
the like, occur in the night and persons are
often kept awake by an approaching diarrhea,
without knowing what is the matter Till it
comes on. Many of these affections may be
ohviated or prevented, BY simply lying upon the
face, when the pain or uueasiness occurs. The
warmth of the bed, thus applied to the seat of
the difficulty, in the same manner as heat ap-
piled in season to the seat of cold, will COM
pleiely dissipate it. A knowledge of the above
fact has been Of good benefit on multitude of
occasions to person of our acquaintance

And brass time-pieces are made for show;
Where tin peddler's carts obstruct the way,
And people respect the Sabbath day.
Not there, not there, my child.
Is it away in the old Bay State
Where every man thinks himself first rate
Because he comes of Puritan stock,
Famed in connection with Plymouth rock'
Where the wealthy give goodly SHARE

Where broadcloth covers weight OF SIN,
And roeues are esteemed if they've the tin

Then il is down in the State of Maine,
Where the people from liquor refrain
And sometimes they make, as slick as grease,
By trading coats, five dollars apiece;
Where girls are fed on the fat of the land,
Till they're so fat they can scarcely stand;
And the boys all get a freedom suit,
When twenty-one, and farm to boots
Not there. not there, my child.
Eye hath not seen it my gentle boy,
Vain in the search myself to employ;
For thou mayst go to the farthest shore,
That braves the mighty Atlantic's roar.

The little Sleeper.
BY J. CLEMENT.

Few the days the fair one numbered,
Ere were closed his lustrous eyes;
And he calmly. sweetly slumbered.
Like a cherub from the skies.
From the body. frail and sickly.
In the solemn hush of night,
Stole the spirit, soft and quickly,
Back to native realms of light
Still the sweet one unawaken'd,
Dreamed and smiled when night had fed
knowing not the soul had taken
Wings, and up to glory sped.
Folded on his heaveless bosom,
Slight his ivory hands were pressed;
And thus slept the heavenly blossom,
Truant from the Land of Rest
