aB DR.. Bennett, a Professor of
some celebrity, considers the tomato an
invaluable article of diet, and ascribes
to it very important medical proper
ties:
/. That the tomato is the most pow
erful apartments of the materia medica,
and that in all those affections of the
liver and organs where calomel is indis-
pensable, it is probably the most effect
i've and least harmless remedial agent
known to the profession.
O. That chemical extract will be
obtained from it which will altogether
superscde the use Of caiomel in the
cure of disease.
8. That he has successfully treated
diarrhpa with this article alone.
4. That when used rs an article OF
diet it is almost sovereign remedy for
dyspepsia and indigestion.
5. The citizens in ordinary should
make use of it, either raw, cooked, or
in the form Of a catsup, with their daily
food, as most healthful article.

A Micro Discussion ABOUT Eees.

A Nero Discussion ABOUT Eees.
Geneva, the lovely village on Seneca
Lake, furnishes the following specimen
OF parliamentary ruling:
In the fairest village of Western
New York, the culled pussons, in emu
]ation Of their white brethren, formed
debating society, for the purpose of
improving their minds by the discussion
of instructive and interesting topics
The deliberations Of the society were
presided over by venerable darkey,
who performed his duties with the ut
most dignity peculiar to his color
The subject for discussion on the occa
sion OF which he writes was, Which
am the mudder of the chicken-de hen
wot lays de egg, or de hen wot hatcher
de chicken %
"The question was warmly debated,
and many reasons pro and con were
urged and combated by the excited
disputants. Those in favor of the lat
ter proposition were evidently in the
majority, and the President made no
attempt to conceal that his were with
the domlnent party. At length an in
telligent darby arose from the minority
side and begged leave to state propo-
sition to this effect :-'S'pose,' said he,
dat you set one dozen ducks eggs I'M
der hen, and dey hatch, which am de
mudder-de duck or de hemp
"This was 9 poser, was well put and
completely non-p!ussed the other side,
even staggered the President, who
plainly saw the force Of the argu nent,
but had committed himself too far
to yield without struggle; SO after
cogitating and scratching his wool for
few moments, bright idea struck
him. Rising from his chair in all the
pride OF conscious superiority, he an
nounced: Ducks am not before the
house; chickens ara the question
derefore, I rule de ducks out! and do
it he did, to the complete overthrow Of
his opponents.

i that the use of Tobacco is the promoting
cause of many of the most severe
Mental and Physical Disorders
to which the race of man is subject. al careful
analysis and long and painful experience have
clearly proven that it contains certain narcotic
and poisonous properties, most dangerous in
their effects, which by entering into the blood
derange the functions and operations of the
heart, causing many to suppose that the organ
to be seriously diseased.
Tobacco affects also the entire nervous sys-
tenn, manifesting itself-as all who have used
the no1ious weed will bear testmo9v--in Las
situde, Nervous 1rritabilitv, Water Brash, Dvs
pepsia, and many other disorders of similar
character.
The Taste Restorative 7roches
