no Sabbath.

no Sabbath.
q In ssPrize Essay on the Sabbath, :"
written by journeyman printer in
Scotland, there occurs the following
striking passage: sYoke-felloWs! think
how the abstraction of the Sabbath
would hopelessly enslave the working
classes, with whom we are Identified
Think Of the labor thus going on in one
monotonous, and continuous, and eter-
nal cycle-limbs forever on the rack,
the fingers forever playing, the eyeballs
forever straining, the brow forever
sweating, the feet forever plodding and
the brain forever throbbing, the should
ers forever dropping, the loins forever
aching and the restless forever schem-
ing. Think of the beauty it would
etfaee, of the merry y-heartedness it
would extinguish, of the giant strength
it would tame, of resources of Nature it
would exhaust, of aspirations it would
crush, of sickness it would breed, Of the
projects it would wreck, of the groans
it would extort, of the graves it would
prematurely dig. See them toiling and
moiling, sweating and fretting, grinding
and hewing,<weaving and spinning, sow
ing and gathering, moving and reaping,
raising and building, digging and plant
ing, unloading and storing, striving and
struggling-in the garden and in the
granary and in the barn, in the wood,
in the city and in the country, on the
sea and on the shore, on the earth in
days of brightness and of gloom What
a, sad picture would the world present
if we had no Sabbath"

Ague Cure,


Remittent Fever, chlll Fever, Dumb
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of d isen Originate
the Malaria OF NIiasmatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community l.
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 alllicting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" expels the miasinatic psison of FEVER
AND ,AeUE from the system, aud prevents the de-
velopment Of the disease, if taken Oh the first np
proach Of its premonitory symptoms. Its not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered fer this class
Of complaints, but also The cheapest. ne large
quantity supply for dollar brings it within the
reach of every body; and i'll bilious DISTRICTS where
FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every body should
have it and it freely both for cure and protec
ton. great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of In,ermttents is that it contains TO Quinine
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 il
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. great variety of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which

originating i'll this cause, put on the 'nte,n'aent
typs. or become periodical. This g 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 maiarious districts. If taken
si,nally 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 viii ever suffer from Inter
mittcnts if they avail themselves Ct the protection
this remedy affords

Ancient Cities Discovered.

Mr.. Graham, an Englishman recently
returned from the East, in a report to
the Royal Asiastic Society, gives an ac-
count of five ancient cities, deserted and
forgotten, which have been discovered
in the Great Desert beyond the Jordan.
They were found as perfect as if the in
habitants had just lett them, the houses
retaining their massive stone doors. In
one of the cities is large building like
castle, built of white stone, beauti-
fullycut. Further eastward other places
were found where every stone had in
scriptions in an unknown character, re-
sembling Greek.

Medital.
Scrofula. or Kings Evil.

is q constitutional disease n corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation. it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variull<ly
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing viccs, and
above all, by the vcnereal infection. What
ever be its origin it is hereditary in the con-
stituton, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation )" indeed
1t seems to be the rod of Him who says 81
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal orgalls is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul corr
ruptlon, which gcnders i'll the blood, dcpresscs
the energies Of life SO that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous CONF
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature
still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its erig directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine. and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply i'll

Brandy and Health.
ga glass of brandy can't hurt any
body. Why, Iknow person, yonder
he is on high exchange, a specimen of
manly beauty, a portly six footer. He
has the bearing of prince, for he is
oneo of our merchant princes. His face
wears the hue of health, and, at the age
Of forty, he has the quick elastic step of
our young men of twenty-five, and
know that he never dined without
brandy and water, and he never goes to
bed without a terrapin or an oyster sup
per, with plenty Of champaigne; and
more than that, he was never known to
be drunk. So here is living example
and disproof Of the temperance twaddle
about tie dangerous tendency of an oc-
casional glass, and the effect of tempe
rate use of good liquors.

had occasion to use. Four months before
he died Che was year in dying he
could eat or drink nothing without dis
tress; and the whole alimentary canal
was mass of disease; in the midst of
millions he died of inanition. This is
not half, reader. He had been steady
drinker, that is, daily drinker, for the
last twenty eight years He left leg
acy to his children which we will not
name. Scrofula had eaten up one
daughter at fifteen; another is in the
mad house; the third and fourth were
of unearthly beauty, but they blighted,
and paleds and faded away into heaven,
We. trust, in their sweetest teens; an
