AsEcDorE OF SAM. HousroN.-The Cairo (Ill.) }
Times gives the following story Of General Sam.
Houston:
Old Sam Houston, of Texas, used to make it
n point to stop ct Caro-sometimes for three or
four days-on his way to and from Washington.
He usually employed his time in fishing from the
stern of Il wharf-boat. On one occasion of this
kind he had ''set-to' with Cairo youth,
which will bear telling about.
The youth, like himself, was fishing-llouston
on q wharf-boat and the boy on wood-boat
moored Just below. At the interesting juncture
of bite " at the boys bait Houston threw
out his line, which became hopelessly entangled
with that of the boy. There pause. Nei-
ther seemed to have word fit for the occasion.
At last Houston broke the silence
"You blasted old short coat" retorted the
bud of promise, "go elsewhere yourself and
fish,"
''I apprehend that you are very saucy boy,
returned the Senator, for whom there are, by
no means, enough rods in pickle"
"Now, look here. old skeezicks," cried the
boy, fully agitated, ~ dSnt want to quarrel
with you, nor nobody like you. Your name is
Sam Dawson, and you live in Texas and, like
everybody else, you stole hoss and had to go
there and now you are putting on hig shine,
you old thief calm yourself Sam. Houston
Saying which, this very amiable young creature
gave a sudden lurch, and pulled the honorable
gentleman rod from his hand into the river.
| subsequently heard Houston detail the " set
to-" and he did it in style decidedly charac-
teristic. Concluding the story he said: g | have
met men in the bar, upon the stump, upon the
" discounted. The boy had decidedly the bet
ter of me, and from his very look, l determined
that when he said stole boss, in his heart
of hearts he believed il.

THIS CELEBRATED INSTITUTE HAS EN-
/ loved on this coast uninterrupted success
Of fourteen years, and has become one of the
renowned Hospitals of the age What the cele-
brated Lock Hospital is to London, and the no
less renowned establishment Of Ricord to Paris,
this Institute has become to the Pacific Coast
The thousands annually received and cured place
it in point of number of patients among the
very first of the world, and the success Of its
treatment ranks it second 10 none.
PRIVATE DISEASES IN MALES and IR-
IRREGULARITIES IN FEMALES are the great
destroyers of health. They insiduously attack
the system and gradually undermine and destroy
it they drive the bloom from the cheek, the
lustre from the eye, the strength and vigor from
the frame; they give to the world puny and
diseased offspring, and poison, through success
sive generations of the race of man. The marks
can be seen in Scrofula, Consumption, Cripples,
the Idiotic, the Paralytic, the Insane, etc.
There is no more terrible scourge to the human
race than those diseases arising from the con-
taminaton of Veneral Poison. The mildest
forms, by retreating to the blood hold ever over
the one afflicted, the sword of destruction that
is liable at any moment to fall and blight-to
utterly destroy-all earthly hopes
MERCURY, recognized as the most fatal medi-
cal enemy TO man, combining with the Venerial,
doubles his dangers. Those who have been
treated with that pernicous mineral poison are
not cured the disease has only assumed new
| form.
Do not be satisfied with Partial Cures,
that leave the poison to crawl through the sys-
tenn, eating its way into the tissues and organs
beneath the apparently smooth surface, to burst
out in the future with vrulence that will
battle the effects of medicine WHEN PERFECT
CURES can be obtained by consulting a physi-
clan whom long practice and thorough nvesti-
CATION into causes of DISEASES of the URlNA-

THE COMING ANNIvERsABY.--In about four
weeks the members of the Order of Odd Fellows
will hail the day which, in the circle of revolving
time, is commemorative of the institution of the
Order on the American continent To the out
side world, nothing can be said in reference
to the occasion-there, heart throbs with
enthusiasm as the mind reverts to the occasion
when five humble men met together in Baltimore
and first raised upon the altar of hope, the BAN
ner of Charity and Faith. To them no cffulgent
record appears upon the scroll of the history of
the past sixty-seven years. record, radiant
with the thousand hues of generous deeds per-
formed without the thought of recompense,
beyond that which awaits the doer Of good in
the life that is to come The record is still moist
from the tears of'gratitude which have followed
like spirit witnesses to attest its truth and the
purity of its origin. The outside world cannot
see this record, nor can they count the widows
sighs, the orphans tears, the pangs of woe, the
calls of misery and the appeals of gaunt despair
which have been assuaged alleviated or shared
during the past sixty-seren years by devoted
band of brothers, whose acts were done like the
secret permeaton Of the elements which sur
round US. But to us, who, living in the light of
sacred truth, our hearts pulsating with the
fervor of q covenanted love, and our minds i'm
PEELED by the promptings of a pure friendship, to
US the fact is as a bright and beautiful creation
of light to Illuminate our pathway, and when we
are gone the way that all must travel to light
the generations of for all future time and
as each succeeding generation shall be numbered
with the past, their acts will give intensity to
that light for their successors, till mankind eve
rywhere shall see it and acknowledge its divine
origin and be all gathered under its bright infu-
ence-the influence of universal benevolence.-|
Well may we then assemble the 26th of April
and amid festive rejoicings, annually offer up
tribute of respect to the memory of those who
have led in the great against vice. and who
after their work was done, joined the hosts of
patrarchs who have been called up by the
Grand Master of the universe, in the Heavenly
lodge where our symbols, types and figures are
resolved into living realities where the consti-
tuition shall be the will of an omnipotent God,
the bylaw be the law of perfect love. Where
sickness, suffering and want unknown - and
death is swallowed up in victory" where the
relief committee shall be discharged and the en-
tire lodge form one grand committee of praise
and thanksgiving forever.-New Age.
