THAT during the year endin" May /, 1851,
two hundred and lightweight patients have been
under treatment namely: two hundred and thir-
". seven with diseases of the eye, and iity-one
with those of the ear ;making aggregate OF five
hundred and eighty that have been treated since
the opening of the lnirmary, three years SINCE
"Quite large proportion of the patients at the
Infrmary las been children, and to this class such
an Institution as our own is capable OF rendering
an incaiculable good. Poor children with diseases
Of the eve are too often, from fear OF expense on
the part OF their parents, left without treatment,
til. vision has become permanently injured, and
not unfreGuently destroyed. There is scarcely
class more worthy the kind cons, leration of
the benevolent, than poor children suffering
from these diseases. The young require full pow

iments of knowledge they acquire, whether it be
of the elementary branches TAUGHT at school. or OF
the occupations by which thew must, 50 easiy in
life, gain their own support. Unless means are
provided for the relief of these PATIENTS many oil

friends or the public

the minds of the trustees and of the public, that
the grea: object of Charitable Eye Infrmaries Is

been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the

The Middle Classes Of England.

THEY ARE MORE ARIsToCRATIo THAN ARIsToCRATs.
In speech on the Reform bill debate in the
British Parliament, short time ago, Lord John
Russell said:
GAS the question has gone on, and as the
matter has been discussed, there has been, as
perceive, less and less of favor shown to the
further amendment of the Constitution, and,
must say, it has not been like the opposition
that was made to the Reform bill of 1899 and
to reform before that bill was introduced That
was an opposition very much OF the upper class,
and emanating good deal from persons in
terested in the close monopoly which existed be.
fore the Reform bill was passed. The opposition
to the bill Of last year has come particularly from
the middle classes. Hear, hear. In the dis
cussion which took place upon the Reform bill
OF 1899, we who passed it never attempted to
disguise that it was transfer of power 10 the
middle classes of this country. That has been
its effect, and We say it would now be wise to
share that power with proportion of the work
ing classes; but there can be no doubt that for The

try feared great admission ofthe oorking classes
into the number of those pho at present czrcise
the franchise, and that the opposition to the bill
of last year was stronger from these classes than
from the House Of Lords or from any portion Of
the upper classes of this country. Hear, hear.
Such being the state of things, am much dis
posed to concur, as a general question, in an
observation made by the right honorable gentle
man the member for Buckinghamshire (Mr,
Disraeli), that ifyou wish to take up the ques-
ton OF reform, it is better it should be by some
comprehensive measure, rather than it should be
by particular measures introduced from time to
time. Nay, Sir, will say even more than this.
will say that in the present state Of parties, not
only in this House but.in the country do not
think that any comprehensive measure Of reform
would be likely to succeed, but measure which
was founded upon the opinions, not Of one par
ty, or upon the interests of one class, but upon
general consideration Of the prevailing opinions
of the many different parties, and Of the inter-
ests Of all classes Of the community. It may be
long before that general agreement can take
place." $685.

Kings Of Italy.

Victor Emanuel II. is by no means the first
monar ch who has borne the title Of King of TIA
W. He has had no less than seventy two pre-
decessors in this respect. Among the most il.
lustratious Of those sovereigns were Theodore
the Goth; Charlemagne; the Italian Arduin,
and Napoleon. Five only belong to the Itali-
an nation; Berenger l., Duke de Frioul 1885,;
Guido, Duke de spoleto and Camerino 1857,
Berenger H., Marquis d'Ivrea (950); Adalbert,
bis SON (950); and Arduin, Marquis d'Ivrea
lOO2); Berenger III. 10 one Of the ancestors of
Victor Emanuel. The descendants Of his son
Adalbert, after having long wandered In exile,
came to Savoy. Amedeus Ill in ll08, took the
title Of Count, which Amedeus VIII, in 1871,
changed into that Of Duke. Il was In 1875 that
Victor Amedeus II. took the name Of the King
Of Sardinia, borne by eight sovereign, including
the last, Victor Emanuel H., on whom the Par
lament has Just conferred the crown Of Italy,
This title had not been taken from the time Of

Its effects commence by deposition from the

the lungs, liver, and internal organs, q termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor

the energies of life, SO that scrofulous constitu-

plants, but they have far less power to with

quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,

Ague Cure, e, !,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE or

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Agues
Remittent Fever, chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Hilious
for the Whole class Of diseases orieinss-
the Malaria OF lfiasmatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community q
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CURE" expels the miasmatic poison Of FEVER
AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de-
yelopment Of the disease, If taken on the first ap-
proach of its premonitory symptoms. Itisnot only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity supply for dollar brings II within the
reach Of every body; and in bilious districts where
FEVER AND AeUE prevails, every body should
have it and use it freely both for cure and protec
ton. A great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Qunine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as II
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, T0othachs, Earache, Catasrh, Asthma, Pal
pitdhon, FduJW dUectt0n q tne opteen, HySteT-

rangement Of the Stomach, all Of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the Intermittent
type, or become periodical. This "CURB" expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. II taken oeca
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis
ease Hence it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter

this remedy affords. -ri

FROM JEFFERSON CITY.

JEFFERSON CITY, Sept. IA gentle
man from Georgetown, Pettis county, re-
ports General Prentiss' army encamped last
Saturday night on the Warrensburg Road,
near Clinton, in Henry county, destined
for Lexington. Another messenger from
Sedalia, brings information that DR.. Jen-
nison, the Kansas Jayhawk, with small
force from that State, had fallen upon a
party of 500 rebels under the notorious DR..
Staples, and completely routed them and
killed their leader. If this be true, the
most difficult part of restoring peace in
Pettis and the adjoining counties, has been
accomplished. This man Staples and Capt.
Magofin, captured some days since, have
been the principal instigators of secession
ism in the counties.
The same messenger states that Col. Mar
shalrs Illinois cavalry had surrounded 600
rebels under Capt. Shelby, short distance
below Lexington, and taken the whole force
prisoners. Shelby had two cannon. This
latter report needs confirmation, but it has
been known for several days that Shelby s
band had taken position at the place indina-
ted, after abandoning the siege of Lexing-
ton
