DIR. HILL,


NOTICE TO THE SICK.
DIR. HILL,
In offering to the community their justly celebrated rem
edies for chronic and diseases Of long standing do
not wish to trie with the life health of the afflicted,
but simplyo lay before them the testimonials of
bei of respectable ladies and gentlemen from which the
suffering can judge for themselves The Doctors pledge
themselves not to make any wild assertions or false state
ments OF the efficacy Of Intermediates, nor will they hold
out any hope to suffering humanity, which facts will not
warrant. A few testimonials are here given, and the
doctors solicit inquiry from the afflicted, into all they
publish feeling assured that they will find them perfectly
reliable and their medicines worthy of their confidence
and patronage.

Where WI they get Husbands Pit ap-
pears by the last census that the excess OF
females over males in the State OF Massa-
chusetts is 33,056 This excess Is partly
accounted for by the tendency among the
sons of the Bay State to emigrate to other
parts of the country, and by the resort OF
native and foreign females to the factories
In Lowell alone, the excess of females over
males is 8,0SS. One thing is certain, Mas
sachusetts cannot furnish husbands for its
marriaeeable female population, and Lowell,
especially, we would think, would be an ex. X
ceillent place for the bachelors who wish to
Get mated. In fourteen cities of Massa-
chusetts the proportion OF females 70 every
100 males was, in 1855, as follows: In

are three miles north of the city, couched
under a range of sandstone rocks.
Delhi is well situated for carrying for
ward the trade between the peninsula Of In
dia and the countries to the north and
west the inhabitants consequently exhibit
considerable degree of commercial actiyi-
ty, and the shops are crowded with all sorts
of European products and manufactures
Cotton cloths and shawls are manufactured
in the city, and indigo is produced IN the
surrounding country. The trade OF Delhi
is shawls. for which it is grand mart. A
constant intercourse is kept up between
this city and Cashmere, whence the splen-
did fabrics SO much priced all over the CIV
ilized world are brought in immense guam
titles, some plain to have borders sewed
upon them. others to be embroidered IN
silk or gold, whence they derive the name
of Delhi shawls. Nothing can exceed the
Delhi needlework, which is in the highest
esteem throughout Asia, and eagerly coV-
eted by both sexes, the caftans OF the men
often being of velvet, edged with rieh en-
broidery. The goldsmiths of Delhi are al
| so celebrated beyond those of any other IN
dian city, and eminently merit their rePu-
tation.
The population of Delhi amounted in
1S47 to 137 ,977, besides p, ,30Z In the su-
burbs. A committee of public instruction,
which was planned and brought into ope-
ration between 1923 and 1925, established
a college at Delhi, and funds were assigned
: for It's support by the central government )
, in addition to which sum equal to El1,-
600 was presented to the college by Ma
! wab Islamaid-o -ood- -Dowlah, Minister of the
) king of Dude In June, 1877, there had
, been opened 247 schools in Delhi and Its
5 immediate vicinity, for the instruction OF
poor children. The number of pupils IN
the college, which in 1929 was l52, had IN
creased in the following year to 257.-
! More recently another school has been III
E stituted. at which the children of the ma
; tive gentry are taught the English language,
d and as many as 6S scholars attended In the
e first year of its establishment.
i The Emperor of Delhi, the representa-
n tive of the great Tinsar, though still reg
.e ognized by the British Government as
,e sovereign prince, has long been shorn OF al
e. his grandeur, and except within his owl
- palace, exercises no attribute OF royalty
IN though looked up to and regarded b
he all the Mahomedan population Of Ind
tn with respect and attaclAAent. Lord We
. lesley. on the destruction of Seindiah'
st power, assigned to Shah Allen the gre'
MS palace of Delhi as a residence, and for th
support of himself and the royal family b
hi made over to him certain districts in th
Is, neighborhood, which were to be placed III
no der British management, but the Emper(
ne was to be allowed to check the accounts
,g- revenue received from them. 1t is sai
m that the revenue of these districts has no
ow reached 100000 year, while the Emp
a ror's allowance does not exceed tl30,oo

How oft we hear those gentle words!
We hear them breathed In song,
When music bursts from happy hearts
That stin to joy belongl
When rosy beams of daylight dawn.
Or when the shadows fall,
We hear the gadsome echoes tell
"Sweet home" hath charms for all.
These simple words That plaintiye air!
My mother sang the strain
In days gone past. in happy days,
That may not come again!
She sang it by the household hearth.
Our father sitting by,
And smiles were playing on his lips,
But tear-drops flIled his eye.
"on earth there is no place like home."
She taught my lips to say;
But all that made my hemc so dear
Long since has passed Awayi
We hear more her gentle voice.
At morning or at even
She has an angels golden harp
Her song is heard in Heaven
hear it sung by others now,
And o'er my SOUL the while.
Steal memories, sadly sweet, that bring
A tear drop and a smile!
And OH tits sweet, cen now TO hear
Those thrilling murnnrs fall
Home sweet home!" tits not of earth.
Heaven hath a home for ali.

A HEAKTLEss MOTHER Ietantieide An in

a most shocking manner on Friday night last, in
Allegheny city. Cries were heard in the yard
of house owned by Mrs. Thompson. On 60
ing into the yard and inStitnting search large
quantity OF blood was discovered in the pri7y.
Officers Scott and Tyler being informed of the
fact, went down to the place and pair of Crap
ping irons were procured to drag with. While
doing this, officer Scott aud another person dis
tinctly heard a cry, and on lowering light, the
body OF child was seen, with its head on
piece of board, and one of its legs and arms
moved.
In short time colored man was sent for,
who went down for the body, and it was carried
to Mayor Denavcn's office. There Coroner Alex
ander held an inquest, but no facts tending to
show who the heartless mother is, were devcl-
Oped. The infant was of the female sex, and
large and perfect.

HrGn Pace OF MeAT.-Proyisions n,on,,

IIIGn PmcE OF MEAT.-Provisions plenty
money scarce, labor at discount, are three rea.
sons advanced by an exchange why the prices
OF food should fall, and yet the fall thereof .
has not been great" In fact, provisions are
going off at almost the same rates as when mon.
e. was plenty, provisions scarce and labor in
demand. This is particularly the case ia regard
to meats. The land is teeming with good things
aud in the absence of u speculative demand
other provisions are coming TO something like
a civilized, christian price, within the reach
Of the poor man.. One class Of dealers, how
ever, are bind to ''the signs Of the tines."-
They do not recognize the panic The fact of
men. who formerly purchased luxurious Joints
now coming at intervals for small steak or an
economical "boiling piece" has no moral for
them He who carelcssly threw down his SIS
bill to pay for fancy joints or "portcr house,
steaks at twelve or fourteen cents pound, must
continue to pay the same price, although he now
carefully counts out the money in small change.
Such course of action is extraordinary, and
argues lack of common business sense on the
part of those who follow it The price of cat
tie has fallen from twenty-fv to thirty per cent,
but the retail butcher refuses to start hair
from the high prices of last spring. Such con-
duct will bring about its own punishment ere
long. Poor men cannot afford to eat animal
food at such prices, and will have to subsist on
the fruits of the earth, which are plentiful and
cheap. When the butcher looks on his stalls
destitute of customers, he will begin to realize
the fact that his business is not exempt from the
ordinary laws Of trade
