THE ToMATo.-Dr. Bennett, Professor of
some celebrity, considers the tomato an invalua-
bic article of diet and ascribes to it very import
ant medical properties:
1st That the tomato is one of the most pow
erful aperients Of the liver and other organs;
where calomel is indicated, it is probably one Of
the least harmful remedial agents known to the
profession.
I'd. That chemical extract will be obtained
from it, that will supersede the use of calome in
the cure of disease.
Sd. That he has successfully treated diarrhna
with this article alone.
4th. That when Used as an article Of diet, it
is almost a sovereign remedy for dyspepsia and
indigestion.
9TH. That it should be constantly used for
daily food either cooked, raw, or in the form of
catsup, it is the most healthy article now in use.

There are classes with whose members
waste is a second nature, and whose can
dies are perpetually burning at both ends
Light come, light 60, is an almost certain
rule There have been wonderfully lucky
gamblers, but who ever heard of one, how
ever fortunate, that died rich The win
nings they got from the green cloth melt
like ice in the dog days Dampier, Bish-
op. Hall, and other historians of the Buc-
cancers, chronicle some remarkable instan-
ces of the childish prOdigality of these au-
dacious men, Nothing could stick to their
unthrify fingers. The richest prizes af-
forded them but a short revel on shore
Gold mOidores, silver bars, diamonds,
church plate, slipped through their fingers
with scanty pleasure and less profit. The
plunderers of New Spain were commonly a
shoeless, hungry band Of ragged Robins,
and poverty clung to them as a mantle.
All criminals, or nearly all, have an in
stinctive wastefulness. Thieves are always
poor witches were proverbially so; the
crafty forger dies in need, if not in penal
servitude, and the ingenious swindler is
buried by the parish. Even licenced spoil
little profits the marauder. Throughout
history there are curious episodes, in which
a common soldier has held for brief time
a kingly fortune in his grasp. The Kohl
moor did not enrich the rude Persian who
snatched it at the sack of Delhi; the Pitt
diamond did not make a rajah of the slip
perry knave who stole it from the eye sock
ct of the great idol. Many Sikh or Brit
ish full private laid his hard hands on glO-
rious gems at Lucknow, and elsewhere but
the precious prizes were lost, or sold, or
sold for fraction of their value to some
knowing native dealer. Gold-diggers, pri-
vateersmen, sailors dazzled by shower of
prize-money, are but too apt to spend the
fruits of toll and danger in day.

WASTE OF TINE.

Time is a grand object of waste. Con-
sidering how short our span is, it is mar
velous how heavily it hangs on hand with
some of us, and how we try, and vainly
try to 'kill'' the old gentleman with the
scythe and hour-glass. By merciful pro-
vision, our minds appear to be incapable of
dwelling, save at rare intervals, on the
trickling away of our few handfuls of sand,
for we should surely go mad if we watched
the second click away into eternity, and
our hours slipping from our grasp, with
the terror and remorse that might be per-
haps expected. But we yawn and dawdle,
or we chafe and hustle, and wish great
fragments Of our life away, that it may be
next month, and quarter day, or next day,
or next week, and the vacation, OF next
year, and we something finer, higher, more
happy than at present, and-presently up
comes the old gentlemen, to turn the hour
glass for others, and to cut US down with
his scythe

The Murderer COnfesses.

Obed Reynolds, who has been convicted of
the murder of John Bullock, and is now in
Jail in New Bedford, has made full confession
of the crime. He has written the confession,
which, with the photography corrected, is as
follows:
sin Freetown, June 10, 1862, l, Obed Rey-
nolds started tor, l didn't know where, but
was going towards Bedford. | got to high
hill-here met a man with team. passed
it, and went most to Bedford; and saw them
that saw me. am going to tell the truth,
live or die. | have got an awful heart, to say
that don't know anything about this murder.
l looked into the Bible to day, and | saw
something that told me the truth, and am
going to tell the truth. have been an awful
sinner, and that say-right is right and JUS
tice is justice, and one mans life is as good
rs another's. l did it through rum and pow
der. was going towards Assonet, and met a
man with team, and took the horse by the
birdie, and shot the man and stabbed him. AS
remember, never spoke to him, and took
his watch and pocket book, and left him and
went home naked But that was through
rum; and if had been myself never would
have done any such thing. Rum or not rum,
one mans life is as good as another. The
poor man is dead. | left him alive; and
am going to tell the truth, and repent and
trust in God l was led away by rum; and
since l have been in Jail have kept saying
that was innocent, and have got hardened to
it, and that is the reason l look so innocent.
But have an awful hard heart, but l pray to
God to soften it. OBED REYNOLDS"
The New Bedford Mercury says he has
learned to read and write since he has been in
