nAsNE1 OlChLEs, ESV., tHc dulc eulIOr VI IHe
Tunkhannock [Pa.] Democrat. publishes the fol-
lowing in his issue of 3Oth October, 1861:
"We deem it due to Messrs. J. G. Aver 4 Co.,
and the public, to make known experience
with the use of their Ext. Sarsaparlla in our fam
ily by stating the circumstances under which it
was taken and its effects.
When our only child, now. in his third year,
was about eight months old sore appeared first
in small pimples on his forehead over his nose. -
These rapidly increased and uniting formed a
loathsome, virulent sore, which finally spread
over his forehead and face not even excepting
his eyelids, which became so swollen that his eyes
were closed. We called a skilful physician, who
administered the usually prescribed remedies. A
solution of nitrate of silver was applied until the
mass of corruption which covered his entire face
turned jet black The sore again and again burst
thro' the scorched and artificial skin formed by
this solution. Meanwhile many remedies were
employed without any apparent benefit. For ff-
teen days and nights he was constantly held by
his parents to keep him from tearing open with
his hands the corrupt mass which covered his face.
Everything having failed we were induced by
the high recommendations of Ayers Sarsaparlla
for the cure Of Scrolulous disease, to give it
trial. In his treatise on Scrofula, DR.. Aver di-
rects mild solution of Iodide of Potash to be
used as wash while taking the Sarsaparilla, and
it was faithfully applied
Before one bottle Of Sarsaparilla had been Civ
en- the sore bad lost much of its virulence and
commenced to heal. Another bottle effected an
entire cure, and the general prediction that the
child must die was contradcted. His eyelashes
which came out, grew again, and his face is left
without scar, as smooth as anybOdy's. 1t is un-
necessary for me to state in how high esteem we
hold Ayers Sarsaparilla.

The Nations New COuntenance.

Wartime Excesses," writes N. T. Willis
in the N. Y. Home Journal, shave substituted
altogether a new ferocity for the long accns-
lom i money. making sagacity in the charAc-
Ter Of our countrymen. He illustrates our
ramuant Americanism by quotation from
the hook Of judges. It is there told, as fnal
feet of Israe's war with the PhilllstInes,-
that, ''In those days there was no King IN
Israel, but every man did that Wnicn was
right in his own eyes,
Than which, continues he, more faith
full picture of the men seen in Broadway and
the Bowery, at the present moment, could
not possibly be written" Mr.. Willis then
proceeds in his observations: Yet the
br. aking out of this pustule of corrupt mat
ter on the face of our feverish nation-thls
one-man insolence--is seen no more under
the military button than under the rags OF
the beggar. Notwithstanding the prodigious
multiplication of beggars, there is no longer
any humility in their behavior. Be 1t q sold
Ter or an old woman, a child, or cripple,
the needed charity is insolently demanded
sulkily or saucily--aad the boon is gwen,
taken as right, and without thanks; or, II
refused, correspondingly resented. Nor can
we contemplate with satisfaction the change
which we actually see, in the visage of our
young men, as made by war. There is here
and there,a noble looking fellow among them
| it is true; but the most of the men, now met
in Broadway and the Bowery, 1.-THE hundreds
of these same heroes at home on leave, y
are sauciIy warlike. And it is not seen
merely in the twirling of a moustache or the
defying of an eye; but who that has an &C.
casion to ride in car, or mingle, as stran-
ger, nova days, in crowd of our great city
can be pleased with the new manners which
do certainly prevail-tbe shOuldering and
elbowing, the rough iostling and rude Ian,
guage, the indifference, sulky and savage OF
every man to bis neighbor, ard the complete
un-deferential condact Of every gathering
everywhere, if for their own independent
pleasure-of men, women and children 7 AND
(for lesser result) it has positively made
more diecordant the common key of the pop

A WIFE WITH A WOODEN LEG.

She's pretty and young, and tender and true,
And know that her temper is good,
But there's trifliug defect i whisper it to you,
IT'S very fine leg made of wood.
Now some they may think perchance It's grief,
This loss of my fond little spouse,
Yet quite the reverse, tits constant relief
To nave such thing in ones house.
She never can stamp or kick in her rage,
Or in wrath from our house will she run,
For in stealing her leg,I thus can assuage
The storm till its raging is done.
Norunning or gadding can give her delight,
She sits up till her eyes are dim,
And cannot be dancing with fools all the night,
With that awkward thing Of limb.
Che wears out few shoes or stockings, ind,
On that well shaped dummy of wood;
A saving of cash that is quite to my mind,
Lbuy them so cheap when they're odd.
Nv dear little wife, with her dear wooden leg,
Her one leg love all the more,
And never would wish for two in its stead
Ones enough if we think the thing DER.
