we'll covered with lees up to the neck,
taking care to prevent his being incon-
yenienced by the evolution of carbonlc
acid. which might cause vertigo and even
asphyxia. In this state he may remain
from half an hour to two hours, during
which he perspires very copiously. On
leaving the bath he must be taken imme-
diately to a warm bed where the perspi-
ration continues. This bath is repeated for
several days, and is prescribed with sue

The neighborhood of Vevay, on the
eastern shore of the Lake of Geneva,
where the vineyards are luxuriant, and
the grapes, as we know from experience,
are luscious, is rather favorable resort
for the grape cure, but it is by no means
uncommon in al parts of Europe where
the grape is cultivated. 1t is a favorite
and successful remedy in the cases named
above. But we allude to it as showing the
healthfulness of this splendid fruit, and
as reason why it should be more gener-
ally cultivated among us.

mercantile house ever did better bust
ness for the first year in Milwaukee
than has been done by s. KLAUBER &
Co.. dry goods dealers. Ii is not too
much to say that the house has become
immensely popular, and we shall not lie
accused of putting in saying it. We
have always insisted that no city in the
United States had more stable or enter
prising merchants than Milwaukee, aud
| when an addition is made to that hon
orable list, we like to tell the people of
the fact. The fact has been demonstra-
ted by this house that the amount of
sales of goods in Milwaukee depends
very largely upon the extent of the
stocks held. KLAUBER & Co. have
always in store large and complete
stock, but they desire to close out their
winter goods, preparatory for an i'm
mense stock for the spring blu mess. Z
Large as were their sales for 1865,
thev intend to double them in 1866.
Mr.. S. MICHELBACHER, one of the
partners, Will sail next month for Europe
TO make the purchases for the Spring
and Summer importations of the house,
which will be direct from the foreign
manufacturers. This IS an important
era III western trade, and indicates the
metropolitan character of western bust
ness. When our merchants count their
sales by millions, there is no longer
necessity for depending wholly upon
the intermediate services of New York
importers. While this system Is pursued
by western merchants, consumers can
congratulate themselves that they are
not paying two or three profits on goods
more than Is necessary, as they certainly
can that they will be fresh and new.
We wish this house every success in all
their enterprises for an increasing bust
ness.-MlCaukee Daily Wisconsin.

The Grape Cure.

As we have earnestly recommended the
more extensive culture of the grape, part
ly on the ground that it is extremely
healthful as well as profitable, it may be
proper to call attention to the fact
that they have in Europe what is common
ly called the Grape Cure. The patient
who is advised to adopt it, goes often to
thepeasant's cottage at the season when
the grapes are ripe, and partakes every
day, of a certain daantity of the fruit,
which he buys on the vines.
We find in a recent work of DIR. Charles
Herpin, on THE Grape and its Medici-
nal Qualities more detailed descrip-
ton of this cure. He speaks as follows
1.-The quantity of grapes to be eaten dali
ly is by no means arbitrary; it varies ac-
cording to the object the patient has in
view. If the digestive organs are to be
stimulated, quantity should be increased
and taken fasting. White grapes, rather
watery, not too ripe nor too sweet, are
the best in that case. If only organs OF
Assimilation are to be- stimulated, and
the general constitution gradually i'm
proved, then less quantity should be
taken daily, and the cure continued for
six or eight weeks. The daily supply may
vary between three and eight pounds, Ito
be taken in three, four or five repasts,
with some modera' exercise in the inter
wal The patient should begin to cure
with small quantity, say one or two
pounds per diem, and gradually increase
it. The skins and pips should be reject
ed. DIR. Conchod says that the daily IA
ton should be divided in three parts, the
first consisting of pound and half to
two pounds, to be taken between hall
past six and eight o'clock A. NJ, and the
other two at least half an. hour before
each meal. Excess shonld be avoided,
Tsince it may cause nausea, and make the
patient loathe all kinds of grapes. Per
sons of delicate constitutions should avoid
eating grapes too cold. The lees remain
ing after the juice has been pressed out
of the grapes is often used as dry bath
in wine growing countries These lees
are nearly dry, but still contain in. the
skins of the grapes a small quantity OF
water, etc, considerable proportion OF
sugary matter which adheres TO the in,
side of the skin. When collected in heap,
the lees ferment in the course of two OF
three days, heat is developed within, and
carbonic acid is exhaled,. together with
other vapors, having an agreeable smell
of alcohol and ether. The inner tempera-
ture of the heap is then too high to be
borne on thrusting in ones hand. When
the temperature is about 35 deg. cent?.

From the Brooklyn Eagle
Lesson for the Radicals.

The Tribune believes that there is a
moral in the Canadian Fenian move
ment by which England ought to profit,
and the moral it sees is this
LET us presume then - as almost
every one presumes-that the fenan
invasion of Canada will speedily be
drowned in bleOd-that the wreck OF
General Sweeney's forces will soon be
fleeing across the border-it will he n
very great mistake to calculate that this
will annihilate Fenianism. 1t will do
nothing of the kind. The body may
perish, but the spirit will survive. A
century hence, as now, the Irish race
will DO plotting, organizing, and occa'
sionally fighting for independence, uu-
| less there shall in the meantime be de
veloped an England wise enough, inst
enough, to abolish their swindling State
Church, and make the Three Kingdoms
alike contented and happy by just and
equal laws, based on recognition of the
inalenable rights Of man"
Is there not in all this a lession for the
Radicals here, as well as for the Eng
lish Government They propose 10
treat the South as England treated Ire
land England confScated the property
OF Irishmen, drove them out OF their
country, hanged them by scores in it,
and in all thi. has foolishly believed il
was securing guarantees for the future
The English Government kept alive
the memory of rebellion; 1t would not
permit Ireland to forget that she had
rcbellrd COnwali carried out the iden-
teal policy which Thad Stevens recon-
mends Us 10 pursue. Cromwell attempt
ed to put an tnd to the conflict Of races
aud creeds 10y making his adhereuts
decidedly predominant. For this end"
says the historian, he gave the reign
To- the fierce enthusiasm Of his followers,
wdged war resembling that which Israel
waged uu the CauaaniteS, smotc the
| idolatcIs with the edge of the sword, so
| that great cities were left without in
| hablantS, drove many thousands 20 the
Continent aud shipped many thousands
to the West Indies" This was radical
policy. Over two centuries have passed
away, and what is the result Eng
land insisted on treating Ireland as rebel
denied tn her people equality under
the laws-took \eyery guarantee for fu-
ture safety, that sonii5cation and despOli-
alton give. There is indeed to us II
moral in the story. and the Tribune ought
to point it ont 70 the blood thirsty and
yiudictive men who look to if for gnd
anCe.
