Strange!
Within the last few weeks our Office has
been moist from bottom to top. The river
laves the basement story and our friends,
in rivalry perhaps of its encroachment, have
deposited rare curiosities Of liquid nature
at the top. What we may have done to
call out these spirited expressions of kind
ncssis past our comprehension. Our habits
are known to be abste,nious and yet there
is scarcely week but this Office is inun-
dated with favors implying anything but
confidence in our tee-totalism. First comes
nice rial Of superior brandy with compG-

suspicious looking bundles, one of which

and the other two-dozcn bottles of xxx

Heidsick in duplicate presents itself at our
table with note assuring us of the, good

laboring under an infliction of pain that
would alarm one less niling than ourselves.
What do our friends mean? Do they not
know that sweet little duck Of writer to

when such men reform" How then, in

except from having heard physicians say
they are safe and valuable. NJ. L. FAIR
BANKS, Esq, the Agent Of the Company for
this quarter Of the world, presented US with
the 25th volume of the manual Of Health
an annual issued by the Graffenburgh Co.,
and upon examination of it we find it full
of most valuable advice and information
relative to the cause and cure Of diseases,
the power Of plants, the treatment of the
sick, valuable recipes for all the ailments
common to flesh and blood-indeed the
unpretending little book is worth more to
US and the public than library Of heavy
tones filled with unpronounceable latin
