A Climate Where COnsumptIves ar,
said 10 Obtain Certain Relief
!. Ftoln DC Rhtlodelphia Iedaer.

Did it occur to the company which
proposes to run regular steamers up
the Amazon from Paris, for distance
of $500 miles from its mouth, that it
will be able to transport passengers
direct into the inland valley of Jauja
where the eonsumptive will obtain
restoration of health and a cure of too
generally incurable disease? The yoy-
age, though long, may be made almost
without changing vessels, and will be
found neither tedious nor debilitating.
Itwillintroduce travellers into some OF
the most magnificent scenery in the
world. 1t has been known to the ma
tives, from time immemorial, that a
removal of consumptive patients, even
in the stage of well-marked liberation
and cavities of the lungs, to the Valley
of Jauja, at a hight of 10, 900 feet above
the sea, was followed by an almost in
variable suspension of the disease
This fact is corroborated by the expe-
rience of the physicians of Peru at the
present time. From the statistics of
Linn, published in 1855, it appears that
nearly eighty per cent, OF the cases of
consumption sent TO the Jauja Valley,
are cured.
So forcibIy has this fact been brought
before the Peruvian Government, that
1t has established in this valley a mill
tary hospital for consumptive patients,
and especially for native Indian SOL
diers, who in the capital (Lima) are
singularly prone to phthisis. OF the
whole annual mortality or that city no
less than nearly twenty-four per cent.
is attributed to consumption. On the
sea coast of Peru, as on that of the Gulf
of Mexico, incipient tubercular con-
sumption is one of the commonest of
pulmonary diseases. A share of the
curative power Of the Jauza Valley
may be attributed to the influence ex-
erted on the mind and nervous system
generally by its scenery and associa-
tions; but, after maKing all allowances
for these causes, the results, as reported,
are truly wonderful. Rain of four
months in the year makes up for the
dry season OF eight months in the year,
and serves to fertilize the land and
yields the happy Inhabitants more food
than they require. An influx of Ger
man, English and American visitors
and settlers would drive these people to
do something more than give up the
eight dry months to amusement and
feaStinR,

SPEAK THE TRUTH.-The Rround-
work Ofour manly character is veracitv-
or the habit of truthfuIness. That viz
tue lies at the foundation of every word
said. How common it is to hear
parents say, "I have fSith in my child
so long as he speaks the truth. he may
have many faults, but know he will
not deceive. I build on that conf
dence." They are right. 1t is a Just
and lawful ground to build upon. So
long as the truth remains in a child,
there is something to depend upon ;
but when the truth is gone all is lost,
to yeracity. Children, did you ever
tell a lie? Ifso, you are in Imminent
danger. Return at once, little reader,
and enter the stronghold of truth, and
from it you may nsver depart again.

Be TIDY.-ESerybody detests slat-
terms in the household. But sIoyeli-
ness in the outdoor management of the
farm is equally disgusting to the lover
of neatness and good order. In the
spring and summer, nature with its
myriad beauties of growth and color,
seems TO struggle to conceal the short
coming of the shiftless farmer, but the
frosts of autumn reveal them in all
their unsightIlness. Fields smothered
with tall gaunt weeds, sowing their
millions seeds for future crops; fences
in a tumb BILE down condition, yards torn
up by swine, walks to house and out
houses knee deep with mud, corn
wasting in fields, grain stacks-the styes
and playhouses Of hogs, svaluabIe ma
chinery bleaching, swelling. rotting in
the weather, or rOohess sheds, are some
ofthe signs of the outdoor sIoven.

isting around you?-PrGtTie Farmer.
