@-In this mammon- worshipping Age,
it is rare to find man place his useful.
ness to the public before his interest
During late visit to the City of Spin
dies we were presented by professional
friend, to a celebrated Chemist, DR.. J. c.
AVER, whose name is now perhaps, more
familiar than any other, at the bedside OF
sickness, in this country. Knowing the
unprecedented popularity of his medicines
and the immense sale of them, we had
expected to find him millionaire. and
rolling in wealth. But no, we found him
in his laboratory. busy with his labor
ers. among the crucibles. alembics and
retorts-giving his best personal care to
the compounds, on the virtues of which
thousands hang for health. We learned,
that notwithstanding his vast business,
and its prompt returns in cash, the DR.. is
not rich. The reason assigned is, that
the material is costly, and he persists in
making his preparation SO extensively.
that the nett profit is small.-Aneriean
Farmer. PHI.

GEN. HAvELocK A BAPr1sr.-At a
meeting Of the Hibernian Bible Society.
held in Belfast on Tuesday last, the Rev.
Mr.. Graham Of Bonn mentioned this fact:
HE had to tell them that Gen. Havelock
who is now so distinguished in India, al
though Baptist. was member of his
MIR. Graham's missionary church at
nm. and his wife and daughters were
members Of it for seven years. He could
also relate an anecdote regarding that
great good man, which he had heard from
the lips Of Lady Havelock. When GEN
eral Havelock, as colonel Of his regiment,
travelled through India, he always took
with him Bethel tent, in which he
preached the Gospel; and when Sunday
came in India, he usually hoisted the
Bethel flag, and invited all men to come
and hear the Gospel-in fact. he even
baptized some. He was reported for this
at headquarters for acting in a non-mili-
tary aud disorderly manner; and the COM
mander-in' chef, General Lord Cough,
entertained the charge. but with the true
spirit of generous military man, he
caused the state Of Gen. Hayelock's regi.
ment to be examined. He caused the re-
ports OF he moral state of the various
regiments to be read some time back, and
he found that Col. Hayelock's stood at the
head of the list; there was less drunken
ness. less logging, less Imprisonment in
It than in any other. When this was
done. the Commander-in chief said, "Go
and tell Col. Havelock. with my compli-
ments, to baptize the whole army"

WASHINGTON. Nov. 19th.
The letter writer's are focking here tc
enter upon their professional avocation
They are smart fellows, most of them.
The flaps of their breeches pockets
stick out like ears, and there is a mean.
ing in it. They are the ears through
which the letter-writers hear, and which
are always kept open. so that an eagle
can dart in without inconvenience, and
without being seen. They also wear but,
tons on their coats with that design on
them-an open pocket with an eagle
darling into it. By that sign they are
generally known. They are a very ex-
amplary set. with but one or two minor
failings they will lie, and imbibe. l
like them because they go to church SO
regularly on Sunday.
AS an instance Of the folly of the present
system of public advertising. take the
advertisement Of the mail routes through
out the States and Territories. It is pub
ilshed in this city only, as whole, and
amunots to from fifteen to twenty thou
sand dollars per annum, and il is publish
ed in three papers in this city, and in not
one outside of it. The few government
advertisements that are sent into the
States do not pay the same rates that
merchant has to pay for the advertise
ment Of his goods.
