Tbs article, although the Ingredients Of
whichit is composed are harmless still its
effects are most powerful. 1t enters the
blood diseased BY humor and flowing slug
gishly through the veins, and as it mean
defs its way through them, drives from be-
fore it to the surface Of the skin all that is
impure and obnoxious, fiItering the blood,
and causing it to flow briskly through the
veins, The blotches on the surface Of the
skin in few days disappear, and the reign
Of humors in the system is no more. We
wish our readers could visit, as we, have
done, the Laboratory Of Mr.. Kennedy at
Roxbury,. and. examine the certificates I Of
those who have been cured of humors.-
But as this, in all cases, is not convenient,
We trust that ous word will be taken when
We declare this to be the greatest medicine
of the age. -

The triumphant success of the self-propell-
ing steam fire engine on a hilly Philadelphia
turnpike, has demons trated, in the opinions
OF persons competent TO form a correct judy
ment, the practicability of self-propelling ear
riages on ordinary turnpikes, for passengers
and freight Among the most remarkable
achievements of the ponderous Philadelphia
machine was the complete control of its move
ments by the engineer, SO that he could guide
it. or arrest its progress, with rs great facility
and promptitude as a skiiful driver pair OF
gentle horses There can be no doubt that the
fertile and energetic Northern mind will sue
coed in substituting steam conveyanees on
turnpikes, for horse power, a contamination.

The Largest Harvest on Record.

The Philadelphia Ledger, paper we'll in
formed, and certainly not given to exaggerated
forms of speech, designates the wheat harvest
Of this year as the largest phsat harvest pro-
badly that erer tcas produced on this edrth.' The
season has been unusually early the insects
and the rust have not been able to extort from
the farmers their usual groans and growlings,
and with the exception of n single night OF
frost in turing the crop in Il few counties OF
Western Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York
and Ohio, the ground soWn in wheat has yield
ed most abundantly. There has been a greater
breadth OF wheat laid out than ever before
from New York to Arkansas and Alabama,
and from California through to the Atlantic.
more land, by far, it is said, has been thus cul-
tivated than at any former time Whilst the
extent and success of The wheat crop IN the
United States are unprecedented, the same Is
true of Canada, and in all the old countries OF
Europe the promise of the harvest at the last
accounts was extraordinarily good. 1t Is
stated that within the last ten years, Ireland
has multiplied the production of wheat amaz-
ingiy as has also France under its more sci
entific modes Of agriculture-so much SO, in
deed, that within but a short period quite
quantity of the very finest wheat arrived in
New York. which was readily sold at five
cents per bushel more than our best, on ac-
count of its quality and cleanliness.
There is abundant subject for gratitude and
congratulation in this magnificent harvest
especially at period when an extensive war
has augmented the prices of bread in Europe.
and withdrawn the labor of a million of men
from the fields. If the present armistice shall
eventuate in peace, the price of flour and pro-
visions must come down tremendously-ac con-
summation deyoutly to be wished by consum-
ers. Even if the war be resumed, and the har-
vest in Europe be as good Us in this country,
the production of wheat on so vast n scale will
prevent prices from becoming oppressiyely
high
