THE Boston licdicaz and Stvyica
s1ouvnat says that tobacco, when
smoked, prevents clsrgyman's sore
throat. It has been said that few ii
any instances of this affection can be
found to exist III those in the habit OF
smoking, and We know Of one or two
instances where it yielded at once to
the influence of tobacco. 1t probably
acts by allaying commencing irritation,
which, if allowed to increase, would
end in inflammation; and perhaps by
counteractiny any spasmodic condi-
ton of the surrounding muscles, a very
natural source of trouble i'll this dis

it was = fit of woman|y pett:shness
because she conld not have what she

her command to afford 11rotege of
her own the brilliant advantages Of the

she requested his dismissal of the
Emperor. lie was a faithful servant,
and the Emperor refused to comply.
Her Spanish blood turned deeper

never to return while he was in power.
She lett, and did not return until the

A FUSS ABOUT WORDS:

One of our exchang epapers allud-
cs ia now word which has suddenly
leap into common use in England. 1t is
the word "bumptious." The proba-
bility is that, we shall import it before
long into this country, as We ordinarily
import all such novelties; but, until
that time, let it be understood that j,
signifies "self-satisfed," or icon
ceitcd." The English have ridiculed
us for manufacturing absurd additions
to the language, and "many time and
oft or the Kialto'' of literature have
they held up to scorn tho expressive
terms which exigcncy often coins in
new country. But in nine cases ou'
of ten they ultimately fall into the nse
themselves, on the very words they
have contemed' maa s.E
s'-familiar W ith their face:
They first endure, then pity, then, empracc.'
The word elk" for instance, was fo1
a long time, numerically badgeree
by British reviewers As an American
ISM fthe g1ossest kind, and yet it ha
become thoroughly Anglicized, an(
"fxed," and even "fixity, are to b
met with now, in the pages OF th'
most fastidious English magazines
In a similar way the word ''consid
erablc," in the sense of a goot
deal, or good many, was the butt Q
transatlantic criticism for years; yet
we find it in frequent use at Presen
by Thack.ry, Ssla, and other pop
ular magazinc-writers Of the British
Isles, as though it were in no respec
objectionable. In short, homely word.

ANOTHER REGAL ENTREE.
The visit of the Prince of Wales

The visit of the Prince OF Wales to
this country has been productive of the
happiest effects. The enthusiasm with
which VIC greeted the young gentleman
has induced the most predjudiced of
our British cousins to scratch his head
with perplexity, and wonderif he has
not been in the smallest possible de-
gree mistaken all along in his estimate
Of the qualities Of the Yankees. The
British l:on smiles complaccntly ,placcs
his massive head gracefully upon his
ple,horic paws, and suggests that the
American eaglais by no means bird
of ignoble birth or low propensities:
Britannia herself takes off her pretty
helmet, lays down her shield, and re-
quests permission to say that Miss
Columbia is "jolly" creature, and If
not a "pcrfect BRICK" decidedly a
''good 'earted customer"
One London journal goes so far as
to intimate; that it should not be sur
prised to learn that Queen Victoria
herself might be tempted, next season,
!. to "honor her loyal subjects of Cana
da'' with = visit-which, of course
Imeans that she might also test the
jcourtcsy of the people of the United
I States. Let her come. We venture
to assert that she would be received
with still greater demonstrations o1
amiab,li,y than vouched to her oldes
son. Although We arc democratic re
publicans, the whole of us, and con
. tenn the trippery of court and th'
political errors Of even constitutions
monarchy, we have 10 feeling o
= enmity for the individuality of sov
ereign.. It is the system Of govern
t ment we dislike, and not the perso'
man or woman, who may be at tn
head of that system, and, consequently
its visible representative.
e Besides all this, Queen Victori
belongs to the sex which is PRACTICAL
more honorcd in this country than All,
! othcr-on the face Of the globe. She
e also admired as good woman, a COZ
\ rect wife, and exemplary mother. S!'

NEVER WRITE VERSES.

Take our advice, Young man, and
never write poetry. 1t is a poor prac.
t'ce at best. 1t is wholly Improbable,
and-as the business world goes..slight-
y dlhcredi,:. .ble. You may write prose
al Your life and, if you do it but lcler-
1fy well, your neighbors will respect
yourability; but should you write;
20 try, perhaps one reader in theus-
and will be cabablc of forming an
honest judgment as 10 its merits, while
the remaining nine hundred and nine
ty-ninc will be divided in opinion As to
whether you are fool or a genius; and
the entire community will button up
pockets when you approach, inferrih9
that you are disposed to borrow mon
ey. Few people connect poetry with
common-sense, and quite as few with
common honesty. Write stanzas,
therefore, if you arc in trade, and see
how clamorous your creditors will
become for ''that small bill;'' for verses
and reverses are presumed be nee.
essary companions, and the ''psths of
glory" in the sonnet line arc always
supposed to lead to the grave of sll
business prosperity. 3w 6s3ag

and so expressed myself publicly. Since
that time, however, after considering the sub

ly see that every vote thhs,cast in this State
is certAi n to be looked upon by our Northern
enemies as latent feeling for the old Union.
and as such, would give them new and pow
erful impetus towards invading our soil and
increasing the horrors of the impending war.
Hence think the only wise course, the pa
triotic and successful course is for US all to
