Quacks a Hundred Years Ago.

If our forefathers, hundred years ago,
could not boast of their mesmeric influences,
Or of table-turning, or of spirit-rapping,
they were the victims of marvellous list of
quackeries of other descriptions, which were,
perhaps, more injurious in their effects. It
was literally the age of quack medicines,
and every possible disease was fitted with
its nostrums, all duly qualified by His Ma
jesty's letters patent. There were The
Original Balsam of HEALTH" otherwise call
ed 1.-The Balsam of Life," which is describ-
ed as ''the most admirable vulnerary in ma
ture;" the Golden Nervous Cordial or
Paralytic Drops" which was the greatest
preservative and restorer of health ever yet
published" and had been ''sent many years
ago by Her Catholic Majesty to King James
the First's consort;;" ''The Famous Sugar
Plums for Worms the Grand Elixir OF
Ease" which was certain cure for the collie,
and 1.-The much famed Hypo-Drops," which
"infallibly cure melancholy in men or va
pors in women" One doctor Toscono''
declares himself able to find out and cure all
diseases to which humanity is liable, adding,
in conclusion, II will forfeit one hundred
quineas if anybody can prove to the contra
ry."
Some of these medicines are put forward
under the name of the celebrated DR.. John
Hill, the great medical and literary quack
Of the age; such as the ''Essence of Water
Dock" a safe remedy for scurvy; and the
elixir of Baridana," which was infallible
against gout and rheumatism. Those who
needed the latter were encouraged by the
information added to the advertisement, that
the baridana (burdock) is common, inno-
cent British plant. DR.. Hill's ..Elixir" met
with rival in medicine against the same
diseases by one Dr. Colley, who announced,
as an ''effectual remedy" his ''Antiarthri-
tick Wine," supposing, perhaps, that the
very name of wine was enough to cure a
equity patient.
But all these inventions are thrown into
the shade by the Medicinal Arabian Quilt. y
wherein" we are told, lis infused salu-
tary composition" chiefly of Eastern vege-
tables, " and ''by wrapping up in this quilt, y
sufferers under all sorts of diseases were to
find quick relief We learn from the same
advertisement that 1.-THE author also has in
vented medical paper cap, for the constant
wear of those who are vaporous, or subject
to catch cold;" and of this it is further stat
ed, likewise it refreshes the memory of the
studious, particularly those who apply con-
stantiy to their pen, and SO curiously con-
trived that gentlemen (sic) may constantly
wear them under their wigs, or even ladies,
under their aps.-London Reuiew.

Fanny Fern on Lovers and Manageable
Oaughters.

How any young fellow can have the face
to walk into your family and deliberately ask
for one of your daughters passes me. That
it is done every day does not lessen my as
tonishment at the sublime impudence of the
thing. There you have been, sixteen or
seventeen or eig hteen years of her life,
combing her hair and washing her face for
chin" 1t is lucky the thought never
strikes you while you are doing it, that this
is to be the end of it all.
What if you "were" married yourself?
that is no reason why she should be be-
witched away into separate establishment
just as you begin to lean on her and be proud
of her; or, at least, it stands to reason, that
after you have worried her through the
measles and chicken pox and scarlet fever
and whooping- cough, and had her properly
baptised and vaccinated, this young man
ight give you short breathing spell be-
fore she goes.
"He' seems to be of different opinion !;
che" not only insists upon taking her, but
taking her Immediately, if not sooner. He
talks we'll about livery we'll; you have
no objections to ''him" not the least in the
world except THAT"
When the world is full of girls, why
couldn't he have fixed his eyes on the daugh-
ter of somebody else? There are some pa
rents who are glad to get rid of their daugh-
ters. Blue eyes are as plenty as blackber-
ries; why need it be this particular pair
Isn't she happy enough as she is? Don't
She have meat and bread and clothes enough,
to say nothing of love? What is the use of
leaving certainty for an uncertainty, when
that certainty is a mother, and you can never
have but one?
You put all these questions to her, and
she has the sauciness to ask, if that is the
way you reasoned, when her father came to
you. You disdain to answer, of course; ii
is mean lodging of a question. But she
gets round you for all that, and so does he
too, though you try your best not to like
him; and with "a ''well if must, must, D
you just order her wedding clothes, mutter-
ing to yourself the whle-''dear, dear, what
sort of fist "wilP' that child make at the
head of the house; how will she s'ever'
know what to do in this, that and the othe,
emergency she who is calling on mother
fifty times day to settle every trifing
question.
What folly for her to set up house fol
herself. Howmany mothers have had ii theese essee
foreboding thoughts over daughters wed.
ding clothes; and yet that daughter has me-

ism and courage as undoubted as if every
girlish fear had not been kissed away by
lips that alas! may be dust, when this bap
tism of womanhood comes upon her.

Balls, Shells and Bombs.

The correspondent of the Springfield Re-
publican, writing from Troy. N. Y, May
9Th, says:
The Watervliet Arsenal, situated at West
Troy, is, as you doubtless know, the largest
arsenal for the construction and fabrication
of military implements, other than small
arms and cannon, in the country, and visit
to its workshops at the present time, power
fully impresses one with the strength and
resources of our Government Everything
is at present on war footing, and from
three to four hundred hands directly, and
as many more indirectly, in the neighboring
boundaries, are kept busy night and day
A large number of hands are engaged in the
preparation of ammunition; sixty thousand
ball cartridges are made daily. Most of
these are intended for the MIME rifle, but
large numbers of the old fashioned round
ball cartridges are also manufactured. The
rapidity with which cartridge is made, is
wonderful. A boy sits at counter with a
cylindrical stick-a pile Of creased balls and
one of prepared paper before him-a simple
roll of the paper and stick, a jerk and twist
at one end,- twist of string, and car
fridge is ready for filing in less time than
it takes to read this description. They are
then taken into another room, placed open
end up in shallow boxes, and man, by
means of simple instrument, fills them
with an equal and specific amount of pow
der, at the rate of thirty minute. A twist
at the open end, and the cartridge is COM
plete. The manufacture goes on so fast
that it requires nearly dozen men and boys
tridges In another apartment, number
of men and girls are employed in the manu-
facture of cannon cartridges of all sizes, from
the mightiest columbiad down to six
FOUNDER. The material of which they are
made is kind of woolen goods-moreen-
imported from England especially for the
purpose. Thousands Of yards of this ma
terial were in the process of being cut up
and manufactured Cannon cartridges are
not filled here, but at the place where they
are intened to be used In still another
department grape, canister, and strapped
ammunition are in course Of preparation,
while huge cart-loads Of bomb-shells and
spherical shot are hourly arriving from the
neighboring foundries The grape-shot are
larger than I supposed, and might more
properly be called peach-shot than grape
shot Some six or seven more of these are
packed in sort of wire corkscrew arrange
ment, and fitted into tin case, and when
thus finished have much the appearance of
jars of preserved meats or fruit
The manufacture of bomb-shells is also a
matter Of much interest. The preparation
of those I witnessed is briefly as follows -
The shell is first filled full with old fashion
ed round lcadcn bullets melted sulphur is
