Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
Tor tho whole class of disc sss original.
Ing I'm hillary arrangement, caused BY
tho Malaria OF Miasnaatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community .
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CURB" expels the miasmatic poison Of FKv1R
AND AauR from the system, and prevents the de-
velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap
proach Of its premonitory symptoms, His only
the best remedy yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity supply for dollar brings it within the
reach Of every body and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AGUR 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 Intermtens is that it contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently 1t produces no qulnism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy As If
they had never had the disease. la
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of dsor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rte,s,natism, Go,a, Headache, Blind
ness, Ioothaehe, Earache, Cata,rh, Asthn,a, Pal
pitatio,, Painful a fsctto., of the Spleen Hystey
les, Pain in tie Bo,ees, Colo, Paralysis and De-
rangen,e,,t of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put the intermittent
type, or become periodical. This " CURE 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. If taken occa-
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 suffer from Inter
mittents if they avail themselves Of the protection
this remedy affords. go 81 -'7r~i

Eodemon Of sorrow hovera round that frail bark,
And far, far away are the clouds that are dark

And tributes Of flowers and happiness bring.
No feelings Of dread Ia the future are near,
Obi no, for their sky is ~ pure and as clear
Az the sweet, holy beauty of one who is there
But to strengthen and counsel the other IN care
And as 70 the breeze they are spreading their sails,
Determined to breast all life's tempests and gales,
How many fond hearts watch the fast fading bark,
As II hies firm and swift az a dart to the mark.
hut alasl there Is one in that we'll wishing throng,
Who joins not the measure, nor swells the glad song
For the fire within his lone soul has gone ont,
And his bark on the waves Is tossed madly about.
oh who, who can tell OF the torrents that pour
ON his now lonely soul from the clouds lowering DER;
oh broken and sad on the cold cherries ground
Lie the pleasures OF home scattered idly around
All Is dcsolatc now, all Is dark with despair,
Aud the angels of Gloom and OF Sadness reign there,
For the loycd-s star has flown, and the dark void Is grim
For the light Of his soul has all faded for him!

Training The Memory.

The Monthly Religious Magazine thinks
there is danger Of neglecting the memory,
in the endeavor to make children under
stand thoroughly every thing they are taught.
II says:
Sir William Hamilton, whom we have
once quoted before on this subject, tells
some huge stories in his lectures on mem
that b" RadfSsRao.N rfoVRlSS nat GSH Isy , 5ePsfsas
we should pray to be delivered from the
full exercise Of it. Niebuhr in his youth
was employed in one Of the public offices
Of Denmark, where part Of a book of ac.
counts having been lost, he restored it from
his recollection. Seneca complains of old
age, because he cannot, as he once did
repeat two thousand names in the orde
they were read to him and he AYERS that
on one occasion, when at his studies. two
hundred u%nconnected verses having been
pronounced by the different pupils of his
preceptor, he repeated them in an inyersed
order, proceeding from the last to the 6rst
one uttered.
In our days..we have. learning made easy
Altogether too easy, sometimes. We
disparage already a verbal memory" and
getting things by rote." We read novels

attention very much. A quick and reten.

an immense chronological chart hung in
his room, and taxed himself to commit the
contents-all the names and dates from
Adam and the year ona down through
Niinrod, Ptolemy, Heliogabulus, and the
rest.
Our verbal memory soonest fails US, un-
less VIC attend to it and keep it in fresh
order. A child will commit and recite
verbatim easier than an adult, and girls
easier than boys, TO keep the verbal
memory fresh, it is capital exercise to study
and acquire new languages, or commit and
treasure up choice passages, making them a
part Of our mental wealth.
Il have forgotten more than you ever
knew" said a boaster once in contempt Of
another.
Perhaps SO" was the answer land il
you could forget some other things that
know, it might be for your peace of mine
hereafter"
Wisely to forget is often a more difficult
thing than to remember. There are some
things that most people fain would rub out
and for which VIC may implore the Lord t.
pour his soothing Lethe over the soul.

"Aint you, indeed?' said Mrs. E., 'sbut

Each, then, came gradually down to her
ordinary key, when a burst of laughter from
Uncle Nat and Boss Kale, at the window, re-
vealed the whole trick, and even the ladies
themselves were compelled to join in the
merriment they had afforded the outsiders,
by the ludicrous character of their interview.

have awokc the inspiration of the Muse. No scene,
indeed, can be moro soulinspiring than the house
hold circle gathered together at the close Of day, in
sweet communion 10 while away the evening hours.
lie indeed must be insensitiyc 10 all the gcntlcr feel
ings. who can contemplate such a reunion without
emotions OF pleasure and delight. To the stricken
child OF affection, the chastCned invalid, whose life
passes YEARLY away In the loneliness ofhis chamber,
there Ia no hour so pleasant, as when the labors OF
the day are finished, the loved ones ofhis family come
together around his couch, In pleasant converse to
cheer his dropping soul. To methe evening hours are
the green spots In the waste of time, and the antici-
patton Of them robs the loneliness Of life of much OF
its sombre gloom.
'Tis the evening hour! Nights ebon shade
Has c~urtaiiIed in both earth and sky;
With here and there a lamp displayed,
To light the bending arch on high:
Upon the hearth with fagots piled,
The flames leap high with cracking sound;
While freed from care, the hours to while,
The household group are gathered round.
An aged Sire with frost-gemmod hair,
by the coy jamb, his wonted place;
Md Mother dear, In her snug arm chair,
With smiles Hume her placid face
And brothers, sisters, to me so dear
The blooming lass, the pratllng child,
Around my couch are gathered near,
In converse sweet the hours to while.
And thus how swiftly glide the hours;
Which else 70 me would seem 70 long;
AZ from some book We Gull choice flowers,
Or Join to sing some pleasant song:
Or while I'm cheerful TETE-A-TETE,
In genial mood we all unite
Or else the passing news relate,
obllyious Of Times rapid night.
How soothing to the dropping breast,
While bowed beneath the chastning rod,
The good night kiss by Loves lips pressed,
Ere starting for the land OF Nod
How grateful through the lonely hours,
Ere morning dawns o'cr seas and land,
The perfumed sweets from affections flowers,
Around us strcwn by loving hands
Most pleasant far OF allthe day,
Which OF TO me 30 bleak appear,
The evening hours thus whiled away
'Mong those 80 fondly loved and dear!
While mingled thus night after night,
ny Faith I'm led to realize
A meeting on the plains Of Light
A blcst reunion in the skiesi
