their annual loss by sickness at an average OF
ten days each in the year; This gives total

The whole cost OF the General Government inclu-
theArmy. Navy. Post Offices Legislators For
eign Ministers and all. The amount weighs
over six hundred tons in pure gold.
A large proportion of this costly suffering may
be averted by attention to diet cleanliness, and
above all, by the proper use of the right remedy
IN season. When Is cent box OF Ayre's P1lls
will avert an attack of illness which it would
lake several days to recover from, or a dollar
bottle of AyreS Sarsapar;lla, will expel Turk

B The Copperheads having pretty
much abandoned the name Of Democrat
and adopted the odious British tory name
Of Conservative, it is suggested by several
Of our contemporaries that the loyal men Of
the country assume it, and be known here
after as the regular Democracy. The name
is lying around loose" for some organiza-
tion to take up and wear. The reason that
the Copperheads and traitors hare discard
ed the name Of Democrat is because it is
too radical. Tom Jefferson was full
b1ooded radical. All reEormers are radi.
Gals; all men Who love liberty and hate
slavery are radicals. Democrat is 8
synonym ofradical; hence the Copperheads
who hate liberty and equal rights, and who
love slavery, caste and despotism, have
dropped the name Of Democrat and taken
up the British tory cognomen Of " Conserv-
atire". which means to preserve old and
rotten abuses in Government and society.
4 Conservative is one who labors to make
the rich richer and the poor poorer, to
upbuild privilege and degrade the masses.
We wish the Copperheads much joy with
their new name.

Canadian GrIefs and Fears.

The Canadians are In "peck Of trouble,''
They are afraid Of experiencing the fate de-
sc11bed In modern parlance Is being "gob-
bled up." The terror OF Yankee inyasion is
not confined to darcy NcGee. They be.
lieve, or profess to believe, that our Govern
ment has formed plan for conquering the
prostrces. But good many Canadians are
listening with solicitude to the hot discus-
stons between the English and our country
men, respecting the outfit of rebel rams in
English shfpJards, and are asking anxiop.iy
whether there is not = probability of war,
and If there Is, whether Canada would not be
almost absolutely Mt our mercy. Hence,
warm talk about Increase OF the colonial
militia, mingled with many oaths at England
for not defending the provinces. And in
OF our first duties. in case Of war with Eng
land, to throw an army OF occupation across
the frontier, and It would be the sheerest
folly for the Kanucks to attempt to resist It.
Half million Of experienced soldiers could
be poured into the provinces In less than
sixty days. It would be simply absurd to
attempt to resist the ayalanch OF
Yankees that would food their country.
The colonial militia would form very slight
obstacle. So long "a the English continue
their ntfatious work of constructing rebel
rams, We advise the Canadians to remain un-
easy.
But another trouble now grieves come of
them. The population is decreasing. One
writer in the Toronto Leader thus describes
the new misfortune: *sWhilst We are speak
