SMALL POX.

Halls Journal of Health has the fol
lowing
From extended and close observa
tion, the following general deductions
seem to be warranted
l. Infantile vaccination is an almost
perfect safeguad, until the fourteen year
2. At the beginning of IA, the system
graduHy loses its capability ofresistance,
come almost as liable to small pox, as il
until about 2l, when many persons be-
come almost as liable to small pox, as il
they had not been vaccinated.
8. This liability remains in full force
until apout az, when the susceptibility
begins to decline, and continues for seven
years to grow less and less, becoming
extinct at about fifty, the period of life
when the general revolution of the body
begins te take place, du ing which the
system yields to decay, or takes new
lease of life for two or three terms, of
seven years each.
4. The great practical use to be mace
of these statements is: Let every youth
be re-vaccinated an entering IA. Let
several attempts be made, so as to be
certain of safety. AS the malady IS
more liable to prevail in cities during
winter, special attention is invited to the
subject at this time.

loud cries, ran through the crowd

Pierre looked at him; he seemed as

was struck with an indescribable stupor.
"Pierre," continued the Emperor,

4 COMET PRED1cTED.-The lower
classes in Europe are greatly excited BY
the rumored prediction of German as
tronomer, that the earth will be destroy
ed by collision with a comet, on June
18th, 1857. The prediction, it turns
out, has not been made by a German as,
tronomer, but by Belgian priest, W ho
is no astronomer, but compiler of al
manacs. He makes the prediction with
out any astronomical facts to sustain it.
The observatories are all silent on the
subject, for they know of no comet then
to appear. Should comet really ap-
pear, the chances for its striking the
earth are one in 2sl 900, 900, and the
chances for its doing any injury lift
did strike, about the same.

and my wife and children will thank you
with me-"
"I was very much astonished and af-
fected, for had totally forgotten his
obligation, but I could not refuse the
just return. Truly, I thought, giving
to the Lord does not impoverish even in
worldly means, and 1 said to myself, l
will see what this ten dollars will bring
me. So, looking about, I made little
Investment in the new land, and went
on my way fully satisfied with myself
and the world in general. Three weeks
ago, had an offer of five hundred dol
lars for my wee bit of land, accepted
it, and as my little wife and little Nellie
have long been teazing me for a piano,
I bought this for them"
at seems like dream" said l, gaz,
ing with a sort Of reverence on the
beautiful instrument; "you ought to
commemorate the incident in some man
ner," added.
"I have thought of inscribing on a
small silver plate the words, "Cast thy
bread upon the wators, and thou shalt
find it after many days." but it does
not seem exactly appropriate to the
case"
odd you ever see the girl again
papa ?" asked Nellie
No, my dear, but I have heard from
her through German missionary She
is good scholar, and teaches a little
school herself, now, in Chicago. She
has become a handsome and refined
young woman, and is educating her only
brother younger than herself. Ilearned
from him, that my little gift put neA
life into the sinking heart of the poor
sick father, and the nourishment pro.
cured with some of the money gave
strength to his weak frame. The father
obtained employment, the little brother
found work to do in an Office, and the
girl obtained tho favorable notice of a
celebrated pianist, who saw that she
possessed musical gifts of high order,
so that by his cultivation she became
enabled to support herself. So, you
see, ten dollars made whole family
pappy, grateful and useful, and bought
me this beautiful instrument.

of Hibernian logic: "Mick Casey used
to tend Carew's Grocery, on the corner.

other day after some 'fixins, and among
the rest called for gallon Of molasses.
There was about pint in the measure,
when Mick commenced drawing, and
after filling it he poured into Smiths
vessel until about pint, was left, as be-
fore, in the measure, and then set it
down under the cask.
'Halo?' says Smith, what are you
about?-Why don't you put in a gallon,
as I ordered?'
Gallon is it, sure! An sure an there's
that much in the Jug raplied Mich.
Of course Smith would never believe
this, as there was pint left in the mea-

Mick of attempting to cheat him.
Sure asked Mick wasn't there a
pint in the measured
yes
well, then, there's the same now !
Yes

belongs to yez, for didn't I draw the
