Persons afflicted with symptoms after being treat
ed should consult DR.. Young at once, as no disease
is cured unless the patient feels perfectly well. II
there is particle of disease left in the system it will
break out some future time when hast expected or
be handed down to an innocent offspring. Persons
who have been treated with mercury should be very
cautious in believing that they well, for it is a
scientific fact thatt he mercury will mingle with the
venereal and form a disease great deal worse than
the original. All those who have reason to think,
by bad feelings that they have been treated thus,
should consult DR.. Young, and he viii examine their
cases and tell them at once how they stand.

A SCANDINAVIAN KINGDoN.-A thousand
students from Sweden aud Norway lately
visited Copenhagen, and were received with
applause. II is q significant fact. The idea
Of Scandinavian Empire, impossible while
Russia was active, has, in her quiescence of
late, been strongly revived. 1t is the pet
idea of King Oscar, and has found favor in
Denmark. Copenhagen, jealOns of her po-
sition, has been the principal obstacle
and now Copenhagen applauds. The King
OF Denmark is childless; France It is said
consents. Prussia would be content with
Holpstein, aud England has no opposition TO
make.

Hard Experience of a wounded Soldier.

Hard Experience Ofa Wounded Soldier.
A letter in the New York Times, from
the camp near Fair Oaks, gives the follow
ing incidents:
A soldier named John Smilh-rather un-
common name-bclouging TO the Fourth
Excelsior Regiment, was found in an old
wagon, on the side of the Williamsburg
road, a little in advance Of our picket line,
wounded, aud was brought into camp OF the
picket reserve. He had been shot in the leg
by the rebels in the skirmish of last Sunday
afternoon. When our pickets retired, the
rebels picked bin up, and put him in the
old wagon. There was lot of decayed
meat in the wagon at The time, which had
probably been left there since the battle Of
Fair Oaks. Yet in this horrible place our
wounded soldier was put. The rebel SOL
ders gave him some water and some hard
biscuit. and displayed kind feeling,
against the order of their officers, who pro-
hbited them from sucoOring him. He lay
in this wagon three days-frOm last Sunday
until Wednesday afternoon. Sickles' Brig
ade we're relieved on Sunday afternoon,
Just after the skirmish had taken place,
half an hour after Lieut.. Palmer was killed.
The Third Brigade (HOOker's DivisiOn) ta-
kug their pickets, approached the wagon
on Monday, and Smith waved his hat for
them 10 come to his assistance. The pickets
saw him but thought it was u trick of the
rebels 10 decoy them into trap and lev
ellng their pieces at the wagon fired eight
shots at him not one of which bit him. They
then withdrew.
On Tuesday some of the rebel pickets
crawlcd up and gave him some water; he
was getting faint, and thought he should
die, for the maggots were eating the flesh
in different parts of his legs. Toward night
on Tuesday another OF our pickets fired
shot at him. happily without effect. On
Wednesday his own regiment was again on
picket. A party Of them came near to the
wagon, he mOtioned to them with his hat
ia a feeble way, aud they Immediately drew
back, and were about to fire. They ad.
vanced again, however, cautiously recon.
nOtered but again withdrew. Sometime
afterward they advanced toward the wagon
tel mine to see what was thtr', supl +
ed by others, so in case 1t proved a ruse OF
the enemy. they we're fully protected by
their comrades, Smith was asleep. They
woke him up, and asked him bis name. lie
could hardly speak. They Immediately
raised him up out of the wagon, aud
brought him in. He was literally covered
with vermn. DIR. Prentice, one Of the most
deserving OF our army doctors, applied him
self instantly to the relief of the suffering
soldier. He was cleaned and his wound
probed. With kind attention, in spite Of
the wound being bad one, (the ball having
gone through his thigh,) the Doctor has
reason 10 believe Smith will recover.

The neblest men know on earth
Are men whose hands are brown with toll
Who, backed by no other ancestral graves,
fIew down the woods and till the soil,
And win thereby n prOuder fame
Than follows king or warriors name.
The working men, whate'er their task,
TO carve the stone or bear the hOd-
They wear upon their honest brows
The royal stamp and seal Of God;
And brighter are their drops OF sweat
Than diamonds in a cUronetl

Who rear the cities of the plain,
who dig the mines and build the ships,
And drive the commerce Of the main:
God bless them, for their swarthy hands
Have wrought the glory of all lands.

This terrible disease is alarmingly on the increase
in this country, and should be attended to in
for there is complaint mare dangerous, and at
tended with more suffering than this fatal disease.
ANY person who has been troubled with venereal,

mess of the mind, an underlined dread of something
YOU know not what and if not attended to the urine

symptoms which so often result in a miserable and
disgusting death But the suffering, before death
comes to relieve the patient, IS DREADFUL sometimes

ity.
Dr. J. C. YOuRg's mode of treatment is new dis
cOverv made within a few wears by NJ. RieeTd Of the
French Venereal Hospitals and is sure. safe and
speedy.
