A Beautiful Idea.

Away among tho Alleghanics
there is II spring so small that n
single OK could drink it dry on n
summers day. 1t steals its unob-
trusivo way among the hills till it
spreads out into the beautiful Ohio.
Thence it stretches away 4 thou
sand miles, leaving on it's banks
moro than q hundred villages
and cities, aud many tAou-
sand cultivated farms, bearing on
its bosom more than half II thou.
sand steamboats,. Then joining
the Mississippi, stretches away
some twelve hundred miles more,
until it falls into the great emblem
of eternity. 1t is one Of the great
tributaries of tho ocean, which,
obcdient only to God, shall roar
and roar, ii the angel, with one
foot on the sea AMI the other on
the land shall lift up his hand 20
heaven and swear that time shall
be no longer. So with moral in
luence. 1t is a rill, rivulot, an
ocean boundless, and fathomlcss as
eternity.

A Cold in the Head,

A DIR Pnlion, of st Foy, Franco,
has discovered new method Of
curing tho special mnlady OF New
Englanl--coll in the head. Here
with is the descript on:
1t consists in inhal,ns through
the nose the emauations Of ammo.
mia contained in a smelling bottle.
If the sense of smell is completely
obliterated the bottle should be
kept under the nose untii the pun,
g,ncy Of the volatile alkaii is felt.
The bottle is then removed, but
only to bo reapplicd after a minute,
the second application, however,
should not DO long, that the patient
may bear it. This easy operation
being repeated seven or eight times
in the course Of five minutes, but
always very rapidly, except the
first time, the nostrils become free.
the sense OF smell is restored, and
the secretion Of the Irritating
mucus is stopped. This remedy
is said to be peculiarly alvanta
gcous to singers. ..

started into a furious run, and all
