Horrible Diseases!

How many thousands of persons, both male
and female. are there who are suffering out a
miserable existence from the effects of secret
indulgence. or from virus absorbed into the
system. Look at their pallid, emaciated
and disfigured faces and their broken down
constitutions, disqualifying them from the
happiness of marriage or the enjoyment of
life In this horrid situation thousands suffer
until death closes the scene. Let parents,
guardians, friends, attend to those who are
suffering with any of those horrible, life de-.
stroying maladies see that they are cared for
and cured before it is too late. Send them
Immediately to DR.. Gibbon. a physician who
has made private diseases his especial study
for years, and who is certain to cure the
most inveterate cases without mercury or
any injurious drugs. 1t is important to those
afflicted, or to those who are interested in the
welfare of their friends, to be careful of the
many pretended doctors who infect all cities,
publishing their skill in curing all diseases
in few days. imposing upon the public by
using the names of eminent physicians from
Europe and other places. Be therefore care
full and make strict inquiry, or you may fall
into the hands of those charlatans. lE.

THE NATIONS DEAD.

Four hundred thousand men,
The brave-the good-the true
In tangled wood-in mountain glen,
On battle plain-in prison pen;
Lie dead for me and you!
Four hundred thousand of the brave
Have made our ransoned soil their grave
For me and you;
Good friends, for me and you'll
In many a fevered swamp;
By many black bayou
In many colo and frozen camp
The weary sentinel ceased his tramp
And died for me and you!
From western plain to ocean tide
Are stretched the graves of those who died
For me and you!
Good friends, for me and you!
On many bloody plain,
Their ready swords they drew,
And poured their life-blood like the rain,
A home-a heritage to gain,
To gain for me and you!
Our brothers, mustered by our side,
They marched and fought and bravely died
For me and you!
My friends, for me and you!
Up many fortress wall
They charged-those boys in blue
Mid surging smoke and volleys ball
The bravest were the first to fall-
To fall for me and you!
The noble men-the nations pride
-Four hundred thousand must have died
For me and you!
Good friends, for me and you!
In treason's prison hold
Their martyr spirits grew
To stature like the giant of old,
While amid agonies untold,
They starved for me and you!
The good, the patient and the tried
Four hundred thousand men have died
For me and you;
Good friends, for me and you!
A debt we ne'er can pay
To them is justly due,
And to the nations latest day
Our childrens children still will say:
"They died for me and you'll!
Four hundred thousand of the brave
Made this, our ransomed soil their grave
For me and you
Good friends, for me and you!

THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER-The
following description of the Significance
of the different parts of the American
flag will be interesting tomany 1t was
written by member of the Continental
Congress, appointed to design flag for
the young Republic, when the matter
was before that body, and recently pro-
duced by A. G. Street, Esq, in a lecture
on the Battle of Saratoga
"The stars of the new flag re resent
the new constellation of States rising in
the West. The idea was taken from the
constellation of Lyra, which in the land
of Orpheus, signifies harmony. The
blue in the field, was taken from the
edges of the Covenanter's banner in
Scotland, significant of the league cove
nant of the United Colonies against op-
preston, incidentally involving the vir-
tues of vigilance, perseverance and JUS
tice. The stars were disposed in a cir
Gle, symbolizing the perpetuity of the
Union the ring, like the circling SER
pent of the Egyptians, signifying eter-
nifty. The thirteen stripes showed with
the stars, the number of the United
colonies, and denoted the subordination
of the States to the Union, as we'll as
equality among themselves. The whole
was the blending of the various flags pre-
yious to the Union viz: the red flags
of the army, and the white. ones of the
floating batteries Thered color, which
in Roman days was the signal of def
ance, denoted daring; and the white,
purity"

CASHMERE SHAwLs.-The cashmere
shawl wool consists of the fleece beneath
the undercoat of the hair of the shawl
goats. The shearage is performed at
the commencement OF the summer,
which in those Alpine regions, though
short, is very hot. The hair is first cut
short with knife, the shearer begin
ningat the head and following the di-
rection of the fleece towards the tail
The animal is then rubbed in the re-
verse direction with short brush or
comb, which detaches the fine wool from
next the skin (the asuli) nearly free
from the hair. When the animals are
not shorn, they relieve themselves Of
the winter vests of delicate down, by
rolling on the ground or rubbing against
the rocks. Seeing that the origina
possessors of the asuli are nearly as wild
as the winds, materials for thousands o.
shawls must be annually blown abou
and utterly wasted amongst the pima
-cles and crags of those desolate regio. nj
M. Gerard thinks that at present a very
great quantity of the genuine asuli /:
lost by being mixed with coarser hail
and cannon wool, and thus indiscrimi
nately manufactured into bushmeena
