The Age Of Man.

But few men die Of age. Almost oil die Of
disappointment, passional, mental, or bodily
toll or accident. The passions kill men some.
times even suddenly. The common expires,
sion choked with passion, has little eAaggera.
1ion in i; for even though not suddenly fatal,
strong passions shorten life. Strong bodied
men often die young-weak men live longer
than the strong, for the strong use their
strength and the weak have none 10 USE
The latter take care of themselves; the form
er do not. As il is with the body, so il is
with the mind aud temper. The strong are
apt TO break, or like the candle run; the weak
burn out. The inferior animals which live,
in general, temperate Lives, have generally
their prescribed term of years. The horse
lives twenty FIVE years; the OK fifteen or TWEEN
ty; the lion about twenty; the dog ten or
twelve the rabbit eight; the guinea pig six TO
seven. These numbers all bear similar pro-
portion to the time the animal takes to grow
10 its full size. But man of all the animals,
is the one that seldom comes up 10 his average.
He ought to live a hundred years. according to
his physiological law, for five times twenty
are one hundred; but instead oflhat he scarce
ly reaches on an average, four times his grow
ing period; the cat six times; ard the rabbit
eight times the standard Of tina measurement.
The reason is obvions-man'is not only the
most irregular, and the most Incorporate, but
the most laboriouS and hard worked Of all ami
mails. He is also the most irritable ofall ami
mails; and there is reason TO believe, though
we cannot tell what an animal secretly feels,
that more than any other animal, man cherish
es wrath 10 keep it warm, and consumes him
self with the fire OF his W reflections.

If you have contracted the terrible disease
which, when once seated in the system, will
surely go down from one generation TO another;

city ike this, and fill the papers with glariDg
falsehOods. two well calculated to deceive tho
young, and those not acquainted with theirtricks.
You cannot Be to" careful in the selection of q
rem edy in these cases.
The Fluid Extract Buchu has boon pronounced
by eminent physicians the greatest remedy ever
known. 1t isa medicine perfectly pleasant in
its taste, and very innocent in its action, and vet
so thorough that it annihilates every particle Of
the rank and poisonous virus of thisdreadful dis
ease: and unlike other remedies does not dry up
the disease in the blood.
Constitutional debility, brought on By self
abuse a most terrible disease which has brought
thousands 0fthc human race to untimely graves;
thus blasting the brilliant hopes. of parents, and
~blighting in he bud the glorious ambition OF
many a noble youth. can be cured by this in%falli-
bic remedy. And as a medicine which must
benefit every body, from the simply delicate to
the confined and despairing invalid, no equal ID
to be found acting as cure and preventive.

THE LATE CANVASS IN ILLINoIs.

After paying high and well-merited compliment to
Isaac r. Dler esq the chairman of the democratic State
central committee of Illinois, for his unwearied and most
efficient services during the late presidential canvass in
that State the Chicago Times says;
"Without dollar from any source other than the voun
ary contributions Of very limited number OF persons In
this State, this State committee had to carry contest
against party sustained by all the eloquence Of all the
publican leaders of the Unon and aided by the constant and
abundant supplies of money from all parts of the country
At least six hundred Thousand dollars sent into Illinois
carry this State against the democracy Men have fallen
during the night from TRUTH and the only explanation
given OF it in future real estate operations Every county
produce its who within twenty hours discov
cred that democracy and slavery identical and
whose conversion be traceable receipts of gold In
counties gold used to control secretly democratic
conventions to obtain the nomination OF weak and
lar candidates for local Offices and prevent these cand
dates being withdrawn in favor of others. Gold with its
corruptBg influences applied to educe the weak priest
craft resored to to blind and deceive the credu
ous fasehood and Misrepresentation used to msead
the tmd and the ignorant But superior gold and priest
craft, and faehood, the little band of democratic troops
acting under the guiding direction of the executive commit
met these combined instruments of republcanism and
were triumphant. Without money, without the to
pay the travelling expenses of speakers the committee ap
portoned well it could, the few who could afford
the State and the result shows how well the duty
was done"
