A Case where two Heads were not az
good as one-A Negro receives q
Hogshead Of Oil on Head-Aston-
ishing Result.
Among the immense amount of merehan-
disc consigned to Hussey & Mcbride, for
Lake Superior this week, was a quantity of
linseed oil, shipped by s. NJ. Pike & Co., Gin
cinnati, and marked r. s. Sheldon, Son & Co.,
Portage Lake. While a number of deck hands
we're engaged Monday afternoon in placingitin
the hold of the Iron City, something gave way
and a hogshead fell fair and square on the head
of a stalwart darkey who was at work in the
hold. The height from which the hogshead
fell was some six feet, and it ended about so
that one of the heads struck him. A wild
though smothered yell came up from that
hold, and the other darkies, turning pale as
q fidelity to their parents would permit, rush
cd Down to gather up the mangled remains OF
their comrade. Imagine their CONSERVATION
upon seeing the hogshead standing upright,
and the frightened and somewhat lacsrated
countenance of the negro protruding through
the upper headl His adamantine Uranium
had driven through both heads of the hogs
head without doing him material injury, more
than a few cuts and a pretty bad "scare." =
The hogshead had to be knocked to pieces in
order to release him, and he emerged the
g~reasiest niger probably ever seen in America
While they were binding up his head, he was
heard to remark, "Gor q mighty, guess dis ere
darkey don't want any more lie on his har!
He was at his work in the afternoon, as well
as ever apparently.-St. Louis Bulletin.

rhe I.ion and the Cock.

CHAPTER I.-Once upon a time there was
a bad fight between q cock and a lion, and the
cock flew into the lions face and pecked his
eyes SO that he could hardly see, and scratch
ed his nose 30 that it bled badly, while the
cock was so spry that the lion could not catch
him or do him much harm. But the other
beasts were afraid that if the cock should beat
the lion he might next fight them, and so some
of them helped him; and at last they beat the
cock and broke his spurs, and pulled out his
fine tail-feathers, and bit off his comb, until he
was a sad bird to see.
CHAPTER H-Some time afterward the
cocks spurs and tail-feathers grew out again,
and his comb grew up as fine as ever, SO that
if any of the beasts growled at him, he few at
them and taught them to let him alone. One
day one of the beasts that had helped the lion
beat him got saucy, and the cock gave him a
GOOD drubbing, and drove him back intoshis
den, and got his dinner from him and ate it
himself; but the lion never once came near to
help the beast that had helped him. Then
the cock turned round to go to his roost, and
as he stretched himself up and held up his
head to crow, he saw the lion, whose lair was
Just beyond the cocks roost, and the lion was
shaking and trembling, and everybody saw
that he was in mortal terror for fear that the
cock was Just then coming to fight him again,
when the other beasts might not care to come
and help him as they did before. But the
cock, after laughing from ear to err, took pity
on him and did not crow, but went quietly
home about his business.

THE LONDON sTRIKE-NINETY THOU
SAND MEN IN THE COMBINATION.

It appears by the latest London papers that
all the great building firms in the metropolis
! had closed their establishments, in consequence
of the sstrike' of the workmen. This strike
is of quite a formidable character. 1t is esti-
mated that there are at least eighty thousand
men connected with the building trade in Lon
don, and that half this number nre now out of
employment. Lord Brougham, in some re-
marks in the House of Lords ON the subject,
computed the number at ninety thousand; and
the weekly loss of the workmen by the strike is
placed as high as halfa million of dollars.
sThe chief object of the strikers is to obtain
. reduction Of the hours of labor-the wages
to remain the same. Before the strike the men
worked ten hours a dry for five days a week,
and eight and a half hours on Saturday. Their
present demand is hat they shall work only
nine hours a day. Their wages, as We learn
from azstatemeat made byamaster-builders in
an interview with the Home Secretary, are five
shilling four pence per day for skilled work
men, and three shillIngs four pence for labor
ers. It seems to have been the plan of the
men to strike first in one establishment and
then in another, and so continue until all had
been forced into the nine-hou arrangement
but the n~aster-builders have brought the mat
ter to q crisis by combining againstth he strikers
and stopping work. AT the same time they
apply to the government FORTS support. The
government, however, says LnatII cannot inter-
fere, and that the solution of the question must
ultimately be determined by the demand and
the SUPPLY If the workuen, considering all
the circumstances of the trade, are right in
their claims, they will, after q certain amount
Of suffering and loss, make it good but if the
state of the trade win not bear them out in
their demands, they must finally give way
The government, therefore, win not interfere,
except to preserve order, and "to see that ali
persons have the power to make a free con-
tract. From the deterninstion shown by the
men to adhere to their demands, and of the
employers to resist coercion; this strike has as
mmed q most threatening aspect, and-may yet
lead to bloodshed.

This celebrated preparation. like the Bitters, may
be confidently relisd on. 1t is designed for a class
of diseases more general and more fatal than any
other to which the people of this country are sub
ject-those springing from a "slisht cold" That
eminent authority, DR.. Bell. says. " will not say
that Colds are to onr inhabitants what the Plague
and Yellow Fever are to those of other countries !;
but, I can aver confidently that they usher in disease
of greater completely and mortality than these latter"
A further proof of abe terrible fatality o: diseases
resulting from a common cold may be seen by a

from a cough, or cold on the lungs, buy a bottle of

may safely count on a cure. Thousands have done
so, and have certified to its wonderful effects.

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 affecting disorder with
perfect certainty. And it does more, or rather does
what is of more service to those subject to this Infection.
If taken in season it expels it from the system as 1t 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, bur
protects from, the great variety of affections which arc
induced by this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical
Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious Fevers, Neu-
ralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness, Toothache, Ear
ache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpitaions, Painful Affections
of the Spleen, Mysteries, Colo, Paralysis, and Painful
Affections of the Stomach and Bowels, all of which,
when arising from this cause, viii be found to assume
more or less the intermittent type. This "AaUE
CURE" removes the cause Of these arrangements, and
cures the disease.
This it accomplishes by stimulating the excretoriss
to expel the virus from the system; and these organs
by degrees become habited to do this their office OF their
own accord. Hence arises what we term acchnGtafio''.
Time may accomplish the same end, but often life IS not
long enough, or is sacrificed in the attempt, while this
"AGUB Cure " does it at once, and with safety. We
have great reason to believe this is a surer as well as
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 1t Is cheap as
well as good.
