TO GIVE DEBILIrATING MEDICINES
to the weak is about IS sensible Us it would
be TO try 20 help q man 20 his feet by kicking
him when he was down.
Il That sort of practice is going out OF fashion
1t has filed so many grayeyards that people no
longer believe in it.
II those who are not strong by nature expec
10 avoid the attacks of disease, they must en-.
deavor to acquire the vigor necessary TO resist it.
How is this TO be done Common sense sug.
gests by the use of invigorating medicine.
The great object is 10 strengthen the system

This object is accomplished by the judicious
use of the most potent and genial OF all yegeta.

o. F., held at Bellaire on Tuesday evening, No

tions were unanimously adopted
WHEREAS. Our beloved Brother, JOHN MCrH,
has been called forever from our midst by the

therefore
ReSolrci, That although our hearts are sad
denedby the great sorrow, we yield our regrets
to the purposes of God; He speaks; He ordains;
we listen and we submit; cEeered by the prom
iss that though our Brother be dead, yet shall
lie live again.
ResClrsd That by the death of Brother MUTH,
the community has lost a valued citizen. the
church a jealous ard sincere nember, and ouI
Order n wise and able working Brother, whose
whole heart was in the cause of Friendship
Love and Truth.
ResolrsG That with those whose woe is sc
Gccp, whose hearts are 50 stricken; with those
who are berClt of loving and cOnsderate hus
band fond and indulgent father, I'VE mngle
our tears, and offer them our heartfelt sympa
thy and coincidence. There is no sting in death
for those who led tho Christians life; the grave
hath no victory over the believer in the man OF
sCTrows, and those who are left behind may
take sweet comfort in looking forward TO the
happy future when we shall again he with him

WHEN a man gets few dollars worth
Of goods, puts them in a room and sits
down by the side of them waiting for
customers, he follows pretty closely the
style of some Of our merchants for past
years. He don't advertise-he don't
send out circulars-he merely waits.
Now, ifa customer comes, he must pay
q large prizes for what he gets because
the sales are few aud the salesman
must live out of the profits. The good
get old and stale, and customers always
lose money by dealing with men who do
the mud road, slow coach business.
Consult our advertising columns if you
desire to know who the living mer-
chants are at this day.

A sHREwD Yankee is doing thriv-
ing trade among the blacks of Memphis
hard as times are. He has grand So
ciety of his own, and takes in blacks
who wish to join, male or female. Then
TO each he sells pretty little star that
il to be WON on the left breast. 1t is
the insignia of the order, and for it a
small sum is charged. Then each is
told that to guarantee him or her from
eyer again being reduced to slavery,
they should have free papers. These
free papers are handsomely printed
copies of Lincoln's proclamation of
emancipation, and oth0r matters, with
o space for the insertion of each pnr-
chaser's name. The blacks think this
guarantees their freedom, and they bny
the free papers greedily.

SIGNIFICANT Smiles.

A rrotesque simile is sometimes very
expressive. We may mention those OF
Daniel Webster, who likened the world
"woald" in Rufus Choate's handwrit-
ing, to o small gridiron struck by light
ming; of sailor who likened a gentle
man whose face was covered with whisk-
ers up to his very eyes, to rat peeping
out of bunch of oakum; of q Western
reporter, who, in a weather item, on
cold day, said that the suns rays, IN
the effort to thaw the ice, were rs futile
as the dull reflex of painted yellow
dog; and of conductor who, III dis
cussion as to speed, said that the last
time he ran his engine from Syracuse,
the telegraph poles looked like fine
tooth comb.
Smiles of a like character are often
heard among the common people, and
are supposed to be the peculiar prop
erty OF Western orators. Instances As
sharp as the little end of nothing; big
as all out doors; 1t strikes me like a
thousand OF bricks; slick as grease, or
as creased lightning; melancholy as a
Quaker meeting by moonlight; Hat as
a founder; quick as a wink; not enough
to make cruel for sick grasShopper:
not clothes enough to wad gun; as
| limp and timber as an India rubber
stove pipe; uneasy as cat in strange
garnet; not strong enough to haul
broiled Goldfish Off a gridiron;
after YOU like rat terrier after
chipmunk squirrel: useless as
whistling psalms TO n dead horse; no
more than a grasshopper wants an
apron; don't make the difference of the
shake of a frogs tail; soul bobbing up
and down in the bosom like a crazy
porpoise in a pond of red hot grease;
enthusiasm boils over like q bottle OF
ginger pop; as impossible to penetrate
his head as to bore through Mount Blanc
with a boiled carrot; as impossible as
to ladle the ocean dry with clam she'll,
or suck the Gulf of Mexico through q
goose quill; or to stuff butter in a wild
cat with a hot awl; or for shad to
swim up shad pole with fresh mack
-erel under each arm; or for cat to run
up a stove pipe with a weasel tied to
his tail; OF for q man to lift himself
over a fence by the straps of his boots.

A FRAGNENT.-Is saw q pale mourner
stand bending over the tomb, and his
tears fell fast and often. As he raised
his humid eye to heaven, he cried:
"My brother! o, my brother !"
A sage passed that way and said:
"For whom dost thou mourn r.
zone" ne replied, "whom / did not
sufficiently love while living, but
whose inestimable worth l now feel"
"What souldst thou do if he were re-
stored to thee % .-.s.
The mourner replied "that he would
never offend him by any unkind word,
but would take every occasion to show
his friendship, if he could but come
back to-his fond embrace"
"Then waste no time in useless grief"
said the sage; "but if thon hast friends,

that they viii one day be dead slso.1

IT is related that in Virginia City,
Nevada, a poor widow, examining an
old vest of her deceased husbands,
found dirty paper in the pocket,
which, on examination, proved to be
tho deed of three feet of valuable
mining claim. The secretary of the
company informed her that it was gonu-
inc, and that 5000 in dividends was due
on it. She took the money, sold the
dirty paper for $4,000, aud went to her
home and friends in the East.

Committee are Of opinion that however well
these may be educated, they would be in the
minds of the native population upon par with
foreign physicians, and subject to the same pre-
judice and opposition from the present native
doctors as foreign physicians and the Queens
Hospital now are The deep rooted sentiment
that foreign doctors can foreign diseases hut
native doctors only can cure native diseases,
would be applicable To them. They would also
seek for a residence in the towns and pOpulous
places as competitors Of foreign physicians for
the sake Of higher remuneration. which their
expensive habits would require for their support.
But think that the simple and not very
pensiye system which we herein recommend would
in a reasonable time undermine the influence of
the native doctors in every district, and counter
act the growing tendency to revive the worship of
false gods and the belief in the old Hawaiian
sorcery. &. y. JUDD,
