OF CALxFo RNXA
yEsHE MOST EFflCAClOUS and powerful
q Remedial Agent that has yet been intro
duced to the world. and is destined to eclipse
every preparation, in the cure of the follow
ing diseases:
Poison, or sores produced from poisonous
matter diffnsed through the system; Bruises,
Cuts, Cbapped Hands and Lips; Corns, Flea
Bites, Spider Stings, Mosquito Bites, Hives,
Sore Ears, Cutaneous Eruptions, hilblains,
Fever Sores, Burns and Scalds, Boils and
Swellings of every nature Sore and Infiamed
Eyes, Fistu,a Piles. Ring worms, Salt Rheum,
White Swelings, FELONS, Buboes and Vene-
real Sores. For the cure of indolent Ulcers,
there is nothing that is its equal.
1t is a conceded fact by ADJ Physicians of
eminence, that every country produces its
Negotiable and Mineral Remedies adapted to
the cure of diseases incident to its climate,
and this natural truth is confirmed by the re-
markable fact that the invaluable Vegetable,
from which this Salye is extrocted, and which
is a certain cure for the SCUB OAK POI
SOW OF THE MINES, is found growing
often in the midst, or always contiguous to the
oak itself. Wonderful consistency of nature
when the evil and the remedy are found -four
ishing side by side.
The effect of this SALVE upon many euta-
neous complaints, such as Hives and other
Eruptions, is most magical, instantly relieving
the itching and irritated parts, and often a
few applications completing cure

Friendship.

Friendship is flower that blooms in
all seasons it may be seen fourishing
on the snow-capped mountaios of n.
Russia, as well as In more favored val
leys Of Italy, everywhere cheering us
by Its exquisite and indescnbable
charms. No surveyed chart, no ma
tional boundary line, no rugged noun
tain, or steep declining vale, put a
limit to its growth. Wherever it is
watered with the dews Of kindness and
affection, there you may be sure to
find it. Allied in closet companion
ship with its twin sister, Charity, it en-
ters the abode of sorrow and wretch
edness, and causes happiness and peace
1t knocks at the lonely and disconso-
late heart, and speaks words of en-
couragement and joy. Its all-power-
ful influence hovers Ger eontending
armies, and unites the deadly foes in
the closest bonds of sympathy and
kindness. Its eternal and universal
fragrance dispels every poisoned tho't
of envy, and purifes the mind with a
holy and priceless contentment, which
all the pomp and power of earth could
not bestow. In vain do we look for this
heavenly flower in the cold calculating
worldling, the poor, deluded wretch is
dead to every feeling of its ennobling
virtue. In vain do we look for it in
the actions Of the proud and aristocra-
tic votaries of fashion; the love Of
self-display, and the false and heeting
pleasures of the world, has banished
it forever from their hearts. In vain
do we look for it in the thoughtlesS and
practical throng, who with loud laugh,
and extended open hands, proclaim
obedience to its laws-while at the
same time the cancer of malice and
envy and detraction, is enthroned in
their hearts, and active on their togues.
Friendship, true friendship can only
be found to bloom in the soil of no
BILE and self-sacrificing heart; there
it has perennial summer, never
ending season of felicity and joy to It's
happy possessor, casting a thousand
rays of love and hope and peace to all
around

A German peasant newly enlisted
in the army, had scarcely arrived at
the regiment when he was sent with
others upon sklrmishing party. Ap-
preaching a wood in which party Of
the enemy were posted, who immedi-
ly6red upon the Germans, and while
the musket balls were flying very thick,
the honest peasant stepped out Of the
ranks, making a sign to the coming
enemy to desist, at the same time
bawled out, ''Why, what the devil are
you firing for, don't you see ehere are
people a coming!"

The great secret of avoiding disap-

TBE ALPINE GUIDE.
BY 7. B. READ.

On Zurich's spires, with rosy light,
The mountains smile at morn and eve,
And Zurich's waters, blue and bright,
The elories of those hills receive;
AMI there my sister trims her sal,
That like wayward swallow flies;
But would rather meet the gale
That fans the eagle in the skies.
She sings in Zurich's chapel choir,
Where rolls the organ on the air,
And bells proclaim from spire to spire,
Their universal voice of prayer;
But let me hear the mountain nils,
And old st. Bernard's storm-bell toll,
And mid these great cathedral hills,
The laundering avalanches roll
Nv brother wears a martial plume.
And serves within foreign land,
The flowers that on his bosom bloom
Are placed there by stranger hand;
Love meets HIM, but in foreign eyes,
And greets him in foreign speech;
But she to whom my heart replies
Must speak the tongue these mountains
teach.
The warriors trumpet DER him swells,
The triumph which it only hath;
But let me hear the mple-worn bells
Speak peace in every mountain path
His spear is ever 'gainst his foe,
Where waves the hostile flag abroad;
NY pikestatf only cleaves the snow
NY banner the blue sky of God.
