CUHE THE LIvER.-There is an article selling
throughou the country that has attained the
widest celebrity ever known as remedy for
Liver Complaints. We have reference to DIR.
Sanford's Invigorator, or Liver Remedy, that
has performed cures almost too great to believe,
were it not for the undoubted evidence that ac-
company the testimonials. 1t is, in truth, the
greatest remedy known for Dyspepsia, Jaundicc
a general debility that so often battles the
skill of our most eminent physicians.
DIR. Sanford has been for long time one of
the most eminent physicians of New York, and
it is said, most of his cases were treated with
the Invigorator with such invariable success
that he has been induced to offer it as family
medicine, and let the world have the benefit of
his discovery. If those who are troubled with
debility, headache, langour, or slow, lngering

physicians's bills, and days, perhaps years of
suffering Ohio Statesman.

stopping to chop wood for paltry pittance with
which TO sustain life. He said he expected, be-

81. PttricL-Iti is related of this Saint that
he civilized the Irish and converted them to
Christianity by proving the Holy Trinity to
them by means of the shamrock, the national
emblem, Its said that the Irish of that day
could not penetrate the holy mystery Ofthrec in
one, when the trenchment wit of the Scotch
man solved the mystery by plucting the ire
foil shamrock, and showing, to their admiring
eyes the unity in Trinity. They at once became
converts; St Patrick was regarded as being of
supernatural gifts, and the shamrock became
the national emblem.
Old ballads inform us that "st. Patrick was a
gentleman" and attribute to him the exorcism
of frogs and snakes from Hibernia, and the in
yentiOn of whisky and blarney, as the following
from popular song, makes mention:
''No wonder that W Irish lads
Are all so light and frisky,
For ST. Patrick the very boy,
Who first Invented 1nhfSk.Y,
And for making dumb folks spake,
Sure now he has the carney,
For Paddy was the very lad
Who first invented JidFHey.

hshermans street has certainly the most
varied aspect Of any in the universe
When the weather is fine, each habitation
becomes detached from the one next it, and
this part Of the floating city is sometimes
absent for some days together. Then,
when the fishing is over, the rising tide
brings back the travelling abode to it's
stating place, and the two rows of houses
resume their place in the floating city
For the rest, on this liquid soil the appear
ance of the streets changes every moment.
A movement of the tide, a. gust of wind,
sudden decrease in the pressure of the at
mosphere, and the position Of the town is
completely changed. For instance at the
approach of tempest the large vessels
turn round, and present to the wind the
least assailable portion Of their hull The
little boats gather together and place them
selves under the shelter Of the large ones;
and these changes are sufficient to render
quarter unrecognizable to person who
has passed through it only an instant be-
fore.
There are, however, few rows of houses
which always preserve their habitual phys
iognomy. These belong to merchants,
private persons, and sometimes to public
institutions. These peaceful habitations,
which could never set sail, and on board
of which it would be very difficult to use
oars, seldom change their position They
are real houses, with only one side to the
weather, and placed on the hull of YES
sci. The entrance is at the back, if there
can be said to be back. It is left wide
open SO as let the air circulate freely, and
the rooms have windows furnished with
nankeen blinds. The pediment of the
outer door is adorned with sculpture, and
with large characters written on red paper
Or cut in relief: These inscriptions gener-
ally signify happiness, prosperity, longevi-
ty. The Chinese, who are not naturally
very mystical, do not care for much be-
yond the happiness of this world. these
trading districts, with their floating habi-
tations painted all kinds Of colors, and
adorned in artistic style, have really all the
appearance Of chinese streets on dry land.
The illusion would, indeed, be complete,
were it not for the fact that you proceed
through these streets in boat when you
may see,tle largest Of these edtfices agita-:
ted by the current and fall Of the waves.
Here, however, as in Physic street, there
are shops Of all kinds and trades Of every
nature. In the city Of Tchou-kiang I
have seen not only carpenters and tail
ors' shops, but druggists laboratories,
ready-made clothing warehouses, fortune
tellers' and professional lettar-writers' stalls,
and even pawnbroker' establishment.

GREAT FLOOD NEAR GIN.
CINNATI.

The Cincinnati papers Of Wednesday
give accounts Of a tremendous rain storm
in that city and its vicinity, beginning on
Monday morning and raining heavily until
night, then beginningssfresh at midnight
and raining with unprecedented violence
for nine hours, during which time, it is as
serted, fire and a half inches Of water fell
upon the earth thereabouts. The railroads
were all damaged SO much, by slides, wash
ing, loss Of bridges, &C., that no trains
went out on Tuesday morning. The Gin
cinnati, Hamilton & Dayton, however, was
in running order by noon, and most of the
others probably would be in a day Or two,
so far at least as to pass by exchanging
trains at the worst breaks. (Ihe Ohio 4
Mississippi road, it appears by St. Louis
accounts, was to be opened throughout on
Saturday,
The Whitewater canal is thought to be
almost ruined, being so much inj ured that
it is thought doubtful whether it will be
repaired.
A young man named James Bowling
was drowned in the Little Miami on Tues
day morning, near Loyeland station. The
river was higher than the oldest citizens
had ever seen it. A Mr. Heaton and his
son and Mr.. Bowling were crossing the
river in a skif, when the current swept
them against Il clump Of sycamore trees,
and capsized their boat. All three seized
upon branches of the trees, and the two
Heatons soon clalnbered into safe positions.
Bowling, however, had so completely lost
his presence of mind, that he continued
cinging to the branch he had first seized,
and no efforts Of his companions could in
duce him to take hold Of another limb and
climb out Of the water, as he might easily
have done had not terror paralyzed his fac
ulties.
Messrs. Henry Hammer and Wilson Bow
Ian put off in an old boat to the rescue,
but their boat was also capsized at the
same trees, and they both escaped into the
tree tops. This occurred about an hour
and a half after the first accident, and
Bowling, seeing it, relaxed his hold in de-
spair, and was swept away and drowned.
The story Of the final rescue of the others
is thus toldby the Con.mercirl:
D.. " At last, however, a gray haired old
man, asteamboat captain named Cummins,
and brave-hearted and strong armed
steamboat mate, whose name we regret not
to have learned, undertook the perilous feat
of navigation By most adroit system Of
taking advantage of the currents and ed

READING ALoUD.-There is no treat sc

READING ALoUD.-There is no treat 50
great as to hear good reading Of any kind:
Not one gentleman in hundred can read
SO as to plsase the ear, and send The words
with gentle force to the heart and under
standing. Anindistinct utterance, whines,
drones, nasal twangs, gutternal notes, hesi-
tations, and other vices Of clocution, are 81
most universal. Why it is, no one can say,
unless 1t be that either the pulpit, or the
nursery, Or the Sunday school, gives the
style in these days. Many lady can sing
italian songs with considerable execution,
but cannot read English passably. Yet
reading is by far the more valuable accom-
plishment Of the two. In most drawing
rooms, If a thing is to be read, it is discov-
cred that no body can read, one has weak
lungs, another gets hoarse, another chokes,
another has an abominablc sing song, evi-
IDENTIFY tradition Of the way in which
Watts hymns were sung, when he was
too young to understand them; another
rumbles like a broad-wheel wagon; anoth-
er has way Of reading which seems to pro-
claim that what is read is of no sort Of CON
sequence, and had better not be attended
to.
