The famous phrase :" a wise and masterIy in
activity, which was used by John c. Calhoun.
and previously by John Randolph, is found for
the first time in the 'Eindicip GaIlica" of
Sir James Macintosh Q79l, y in the following
passage: = The Commons, faithful to their sys-
TEN, remained in a wise and mastery inactivi-
ty."
'dod tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, -

off the Genesee Falls. and also at Niagara.

DISTRESS AMONG THE ENGLISH CLERGY.
The Rev W. G. Jervis, secretary to the clerical

the working clergy of the Church of England.
Four hundred Of these poor fellows, known to
Mr. Jervis, in one year applied for any sort OF
relief-money, clothes, or food The Bishop Of
Sodor and Man states that the proverty of his
clergy is so great that fresh meat is luxury to
them and another bishop lately stated that ne

- To cure corns, soak the foot in warm
water for quarter of an hour every night !;
after each soaking rub the corn patiently with
the finger: using half dozen drops of sweet
oil; wear around the toe during the day two
thicknesses of buckskin, with a hole in it to
receive the corn. Continue this treatment un-
til the corn falls out; and by wearing msder-
ately loose shoes it will be months, and even
wears, before the corn returns, when the same
treatment will be efficient in few days
PAIRING corns is always dangerous, besides
making them take deeper root.
