Do you call this "a stretcher?' Go with
me, then, to the north side of the house,
and let me show you a locust in bloom,
and buds, red and white, opening on rose,
bushes in yard where a ray of sunshine
has not fallen for two months, it being sha-
ded by the house all day. In the next
yard, equally sunless,a Lamarque rose bush
is budding and Gala lilies opening; and a
few rods off, fuschia bushes are dropping
with purple earrings, and an Australian
pea-vine bursting into delightful bloom
all without one kindly glance of the sun,
and in the shortest days of the year.

We have received two or three hundred

in rooms without fire, and at dark sat down

from the ground and caulifower fresh and
tender. So you say that isn't anything to
make fuss about? Well, we had lettuce,
not raised under glass. Are you still
stoical! We had new potatoes-and
splendid ones, too. That troubles you a

strawberries! Do you hear that! Grown
within city limits, in the open air, without
any stimulant or coaxing! And we had
a large box of them, and their average
size was that of big walnut. Do you
ask how much paid for them? That's
impertinent. That's just the way with
you Yankees-one can't take you into
confidence, without your wanting to see
the bill, and wondering if the play was
worth the candle. l shan't tell you what
they cost. What business is it of yours,
if they were dollar pound? 1t would
be worth that to brag over you little.
Go into Faneuil Hall market, and try to
buy half bushel of green peas, and
three punches of readishes, and two heads
of lettuce-and then price bananas and
strawberries at Palmers!

Scr0fula, or Kings Evil

Is constitutional disease, cerrupt;on of q.
blood, by which this fluid becomes yit;atsS
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation. !,
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 nav
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal infection, What.
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending 4" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation :" indeed.
it seems to be the rod of Him who SAYS, .
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 organs is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders III the blood, dcpresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous CON-
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,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
cimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from OF
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofuleus Z
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by It..
To cleanse it from the system We must renovate-
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise
Such medicine we supply in

QUEEN VIcToRIA's DREss.-At the
opening of Parliament Queen Victoria
wore robes of taste, her dress, being com.
posed of silver tissue, striped with gold,
and superb train of crimson velvet, lined
with ermine and embroidered with gold,
which was carried by the ladies in waiting
and two pages. On her head was demi,
crown of brilliants, and with it were worn
en- suit necklace, earrings, stomachel
and bracelets of diamonds. The Prince
Consort wore his uniform as Field Marshal
with the riband of the Garter.
The Persian Ambassadors, who was
the first diplomat to arrive, created quite
sensation in the house, which was by nc
means lessened by this distinguished Ori
entails indecision as to where to 90. He
was finally relieved from his embarrass-
ment by being shown to bis proper seat
His costume was rich, quaint and peculiar
his breast being covered with jewels of ex
ceeding brilliancy, and his features almost
concealed under fur covered steeple hat

&c There has been curious rebellion in
Louisiana. Seventy-fve students who
were anxious to join the "Pelican Army
and to fight under that bird of very dirty
habits, rose from their seats after morning
grace had been said, smashed their plates
and glasses, overthrew the table, pitched
into the Professors, and then vamosed, en-
masse. They may be pronounced a most
graceless set.

The Senatorial contest in Kansas is in
full blast. The Ewing mon and the Par
rott men are especially bitter upon each
other. Gen. Lanes friends are exceeding
ly active. The combat is carried on with
backwoods directness. There are no fine
spun phrases to conceal in courtesy the
knife that is put at the throat of an oppo-
nent. The papers and people talk with
meat-axe precision.

LET HIM ALoNE.-The Western papers
are pitching into Hon. Massa Greely for
manufacturing correspondence from Charles

This is too bad. Greedy has been snubbed

ing i'm hillary arrangement, caused by
We are enabled here to offer the community
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-
velopment of the disease, il taken on the first ap
proach of its premontory symptoms. 1t is not only
the best remedy ever 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 AGUE 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 Qinine
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 if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence OF
the miasmatic poison. A great variety of diser-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, GO'a, Headache, Blind
ness, Ioofhachc, Earache, CatmTh, .isthma, FpI-
ics, Pain in he Boireks, Colo, PARALYSIS and DE-
rangenlent of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the Intermittent
type, or become periodical. This '' CrEE 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 maarious 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 ever suffer from Inter-
mittents if they avail themselves OF the protection
this remedy affords.

A BRAvE VIRGINIA BoY.-Wc under
stalfd that when the vandal Black Repub-
licans had in their panic and hurry des-
troyed as much of the property at the
Gosport Navy Yard as they could, their
last effort was to blow up the Dry Dock.
to this end, after depostlng asntficiens
quantity of powder in boulk, they laid
train Of powder to a very slow burning
fuse at some distance from the Dock. a
portion of this train was laid on the top OF
a pile of planks, behind which was cons
cealed Portsmouth boy. The fuse was
lighted, the vandal Republicans made
"Boston time" for their boats, expecting 70
hear at a safe distance, an awful explosion
But they missed their mark The Ettle-
Virginia hero very deliberately rose up
and overturned one of the planks on which
the train was laid, thereby 'scntting the
connection with the bulk OF powder, and
saving one of the most valuable naval
works IN the United States or in the world.
What was the name of this boy Let us
have it, and let Old Virginia adopt him as
her son, to be reared at her own expense. 50
