A CuRE FoR CHOLERA.

The subjoined letter, from a well known
Boston druggist and apOthecary, was first
published several years ago in Boston
paper:
'Rev. DIR. Hamlin, of Constantinople,
saved hundred of lives by the following
simple preparation, during the terrible
ravages of cholera in that city few years
since. In no case did the remedy fail
where the patient could be reached in
season. 1t is not less effective in cholera
morbus and ordinary diarrhea. A remedy
so easily procured, and SO vitally effica-
cious should always be at hand. An or
binary vial of it can be had for twenty
five cents, and no family should be with
out it over night
''The writer of this received the receipt
few days since, and having been serious
ly attacked with cholera morbus the past
week, can attest to it almost magical influ-
ence in affording relief from excruciating
pain. He ardently hopes that every one
whose eyes trace these lines will cut this
article from the paper, and procure the
medicine without delay. Its prompt ap-
plication will relieve pain, and presump-
lively save life:
"Take one part laudinum, one part cam,
phorated spirit, two parts tincture of gin
ger, two parts capsieum. Dose-One tea
spoonful in wineglass of water. If the
case is obstinate, repeat the dose in three
or four hours.

studiously avoids him in company.
1t won't do for a young lady to presume
that more than a third of the gentlemen
who show her pointed attention have the
most distant idea of marrying her.
1t wont do for man to fancy a lady is

EFFECTS OF LIGHT.

DR.. Moore, the metaphysician, thus
speaks of the effect of light on body and
mind: A tadpole, confined in darkness,
would never become frog; and an infant,
deprived of heavens free light will not
grow into a perfect being. Hence, IN
deep, dark gorges of the Swiss valais,
where the direct sunshine never reaches,
the hideous prevalence of idiocy startles
the traveller. It's strange, melancholy
idocy. Many are incapable of any artieu-
late speech; some are deaf some blind,
some labor under all these privations, and
are misshappen in some part of the body,
| believe there is in some places marked
difference in the healthiness of houses ac
cording to their aspect with regard to the
sun; and those are decidedly the health
lest, other things being equal, in which al
the rooms are, during some part of the
day, fully exposed to the diurnal light
Epidemics attack inhabitants on the shady
side of the street, and exempt those OIL
the other side; and even in endemics
such as ague, the morbid influence is oftel
thus partial in its labors.

APOCALYPSE.
BY WILLIAM H. BURLEIGH.


Be patient, oh, be patient !-ye who wait,
Worn with long toll, for Freedom coming day
Though years on years roll suddenly away,
Aud no strong Angel open filings the gate
of its red dawn-yet doubt not, soon or late,
Old Earth shall bask in lis refulgent ray,
And her glad millions from tyrannic sway
Walk forth in light, redeemed, regenerated
Truth is immortal, and-though fate defer
Her hour of triumph, and prolong the stress
Of evil fortune-they who war for her,
And only they, are certain of success;
For she is Gods annointed minister,
And he will crown her work in righteousness
Strike; then, ye Heroesl though Oppression
might
Gloom dark and cold above the weary fight,
The weary fight ye wage with banded wrongs
While through the dark shines no prophetic ray
With cheering promise of the dawning day,
When Earth shall greet her jubilee with songs
Strikel with your dauntless heart in every blow
Till truth exults in Falsehoods overthrow
Strikel and the fire that leaps from clashing stee
Shall light the ages to their destined goal
Freedoms august and sacred Commonweal-
Where manhood stands erect and free in soul
And, tramping on the tyrants broken rod,
Kneels to no monarch save the sovereign God!
Heroes and martyrs! waging not in vain,
A holy warfare, though from every sod
Your blood steams upward, it shall fall in rail-
To nurse the tree whose planting is of God!
Ye shall yet triumph for Expressions power,
Last as it may, is only for an hour,
While Freedoms life thrills through the vas
To-BE, ..r-
And claims its heirship to EternityI
Then from the Force, and Fraud, and Hat
that sway
The awful issues hidden in to-day,
To the great Future send your bold appeal,
With fire-winged words that cleave their way
sublime
Through the far spaces of the Coming Time
And trust the verdict it shall yet reveal.

sHERpTAN,s ARMY.

The march of Sherman's army through
the city of Washington, was perhaps the
most imposing pageant ever witnessed in
this country. A writer in the Philadel
phia Press gives it the following rich col
oring:
"Never shall forget the oath of May,
IS45, when the bronzed heroes of Sher-
mans immense column passed in continu-
Gus streams along Pennsylvania Avenue.
The head of the line started from the very
Capitol building led off by Tecumseh him
SELF 1t was bright and beautiful day.
How many of our millions who did not
see that wondrous sight, lived to regret
their loss, and to envy those who enjoy it
The day before, the army of the Potomac,
with its fresh and bright uniforms, its splen-
didly-equipped officers, and its apparent
holiday array, marched in successive tramp,
tramp, tramp, each platoon as solid as a
piece of animated machinery, drilled and
disciplined and educated into sort of In
exorable regularity, as the whole mass
swept by these marble halls. Then came
Sherman's hosts-hosts, indeed, they were.
There were very few spangles and very
little newness, and nothing that savored oi
attempts at decoration; but they were aw-
full in their order. "Veteran was writ
ten all over their dark faces Drowned by
the ardent Southern sun, and health al
most spoke from their elastic steps and
erect figures. With their Kossuth hat
and stained uniforms, and music, which
however good, was so different from ths
city airs of the bands of the previous day
they seemed like strangers from another
planet recalling with their tropical plants
and animals, and dusky contrabands march
ing in regimental order, what we read il
the delightful pages of Irving, of the mel
of Columbus who came back from strange
islands and unknown climes with the
beasts and birds and flowers they had col
| Iected." .1e @
