Ayers Ague Cure,

which neutralizes this malarious poison in the
blood, and stimulates the liver to expel it from the
body. AS it should, so it does cure this aflictinl
disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more,
or rather does what is of more service to those sub
ject to this infection. If taken in season it expels
it from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not only cures. but protects from,
the great variety of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Rcmittcnt
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked AGue,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache. Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-
tons, Painful Affections of the Spleen. Mysteries,
Collie, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of fine
Stomach and Bowels, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AGUE CUEE"
removes the cause of these arrangements, and cures
the disease.
This it accompanies by stimulating the excrc-
tories to expel the virus from the system; aud
these organs by degrees become hahited 20 do this
their office Of their own accord. Hence arises what
we term acclim0tnti0U. Time may accomplish the
SAM end, but often life is not long enough, or is
sacrificed in the attempt, while this " AGUE CUIiE"
does it at once, and with safety. We have great
reason TO believe This is Il surer as well rs safer
remedy for the whole class OF diseases which are
caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other
which has been discovered and it has still another
important advantage to the public, which is, that
it is cheap as well as good.

Chinese Agriculture.

A contemporary, referring to narrative OF
travellers in China, published by a Russian Off
Ger, says:
This author, like every other who has visited
China, bears testimony to the high development
of agriculture in that mysterious country. The
harvest in China he remarks, produces fifty,
seventy, and even hundred fold. The cause
will be found in the care with which they ma
Iiure the ground, the tom of sewing early, of
wedding and watering &c. The acre of land
yieldsin England, Germany and France, twice
or three times as much, as with u.s. but the
Chinese agriculturisss surpasses even the Eu-
ropean by far. How infinitely inferior, says
Professor Liedig, is the agriculture of Europe
to that of China The Chinese are the most
admirable gardeners and trainers of plants, for
each of which they understand how to prepare
and apply the best adapted manures. The ag-
riculture of their country is the most perfect in
the world, and there, where the climate is the
most fertile, differs little from the European very
little value is attached to the excrements of
animals With us thick books are written, but
no experiments instituted" &c.
Travellers tell us of one particular attainment
of Chinese Agriculture, Which, though it is
not always of practical value, Indicates Won
derful knowledge of the laws of vegetable growth
that is, the power of charging or dwarGng, at
will, many of the productions of nature. Thus,
an oak tree for instance, win frequently be seen
growing in flower pot, bearing its thrifty little
leaves, and bringing its tiny acorns to maturity,
with all the regularity of its forest kindred, the
entire tree not being more than two feet hige.
Such specimens of human ingenuity may be
worthless, but they imply knowledge and skill
that are worth a great deal

To PREVENT Cows FROM KICKING
Smith, of Saratoga County, New York. says
he subdues refractory cows thus: "Take q
rope or leather strap, eighteen inches long, and
fasten the two ends firmly together. Raise the
fore leg of the animal upon the side of the
mixer, and bending the foot back upon the leg,
slip the strap or rope over the knee joint, so that
the animal cannot get her foot upon the ground.
This will prevent the possibility of the cows
kicking, for, to raise either hind foot she must
stand upon both fore feet. When properly ad-
justed the pail is safe"

SALT For HORSES FEET.-Common salt
absorhs moisture from the atmosphere, hence it
has been in some instances applied with great
success for keeping the hard-b hoofs of
horses moist. The hoofs Of some horses be-
come dry and oftentimes crack, thereby render
ing them lame, the animals are driven on hard
roads. By bathing the hoof and fetlock joint
with salt brine three time day, lameness from
the above cause will be avoided. 1t is COM
mon practice with some blacksmiths to rasp
cracked hoofs in order to render them mo re
tough, but salt brine is far superior to rasping
for effecting this object. Scientific american
