SIR I'll take great pleasure in stating that, af
ter having suffered from dyspepsia for about fiE
teen years, at some periods much more than
others, have been entirely cured by the use Of
Goes Dyspepsia Cure. My friends know that of
late years my case has been an extreme one.
had great suffering from eating any kind of
food, and on an average would vomit about one
third Of my meals in sour indigestible mass
When the severe attacks would come | would
lose all strength and be utterly helpless. Some
of the attacks would be so severe that for days
together would not retain anything on my
stomach, savea little dry toast and tea. For
years Iknew not what ii was to pass Eve con-
secutive hours without intense pain. From the
time took the first dose Of this medicine cens-
cd vomiting, gradually all soreness passed away,
and flesh and strength returned, and ever since
have been able to eat any kind of food set up
on the table. Six months have now passed with
ont any symptoms OF the return of the disease
My case was considered by nil, even physicians,
so marvellous, that for time it was feared II
might be fictitious but am now 80 well con-
WINGED. that have been not merely relieved,
but permanently cured, that can conscientious
ly recommend Goes Dyspepsia Cure to all vic

PROTECT THE BrRDs.-Birds are the farm
er's best friends aud should be protected ac-
cordingly. By an act of the Pennsylvania
Legislature, it is unlawful to kill or destroy
any insectiverous bird in any season of the
year under a penalty of two dollars for each
and every offense. Insectivorous birds are
all those which destroy insects, and they en-
brace most of the bird family-including the
robin, flicker, lark, dove, cat-bird, jay, oriole
wo,od-pecker, sapsucker, thrush and many
others.

THE MURDER OF MRS. SURRATT AND THE
FATE OF HER AocUsERs-The Cambridge
(Md) Democrat thus alludes to the infamous
witnesses for the Government upon whose
testimony an innocent woman, Mrs Surratt,
was murdered upon the gallows, by the order
of an illegal packed military tribunal. 1t
says: h
"Conover, particular friend and associate
of Ashley, is now residing in the Penitentiary;
CleaVer has been once convicted of an infa-
nous crime, and is awaiting new trial; Ba-
ker Is an absconding criminal and fugitive
from justice, and Richard Montgomery has
been arrested, and is to be tried for embezzle-
ment and swindling.

TREATMENT OF ANIMALS IN THE EAST
In every part of the East, among every class
ofpe0ple, a man is tender to his horse, his
camel, and his ass beyond the usage of any
Christian land. In Syria mans beast is a
member of his family; to be cherished and
loved in its degree as creature given into
his care by God. Sometimes Orientals car
~ this tenderness to excess. They have asy-
lums for aged cats. They leave legacies to
birds. A Turk will cross over street to
avoid waking cur. An Arab studies pain

FACTS OF FLowERs.--It is not generally
known, but 1t is nevertheless truth, that almost
all kinds of flowers sleep during the night
The marigold goes to bed with the sum- and
and with him rises weeping Many plants
are so sensitive that their leaves close during
the pasaageofa cloud The dandelion opens
at five or six in the morning, and shuts at
nine in the evening the daisy opens its days
eye to meet the early beams Of the morning
sun. The crocus, tulip, and many others
close their blossoms at different hours towards
evening The ivy leaved lettuce opens at
eight in the morning, and closes for ever at
four in the afternoon. The night-fowering
cerus turns night into day 1t begins tn ex-
pand its magnificent sweet-scentetf blossoms
In the twilight; it is in full bloom at midnight,
and closes never to open again, at the dawn
of day. In clover field not leaf opens till
after sun rise So says celebrated author,
who has devoted much time to the study of
plants, and often watched them in their slum-
beers. The plants which seem to be awake
all night he styles "the bats and owls of the
vegetable kingdom"

liable to special tax from the first day of the
month in which they engage in business as
such without taking into consideration the
amount OF their recpestive gross receipts, I'M

reasonable doubt that the gross receipts Of
any proprietor of a hotel will not exceed

Many of the birds most useful to the farm
er and horticulturist, as wrens woodpeckers,
nuthatches, titmice, &c, are species nesting
in holes of decayed trees or stumps, and only
found where such places of abode exist, dis
appearing to a greater or less degree with
them. OF late years various contrivances
have been devised, especially in Germany, to
supply suitable breeding places to the birds
mentioned, the most availableand satisfactory
being made of patterns of different shapes,
either partially globular, cylindrical or conf
cal, and suspended to the trees. These when
smeared with tar or pitch and stack over with
moss and lichens, are almost as acceptable to
the birds as hollow trees would be- and attract
large numbers of them. Csr
A striking illustration of the force of a mo.

the murder of her husband, and was SEN
fenced to be hanged, but her sentence was
committed by Gov. Stone. 1t was afterward
found that she was entirely innocent, and
that her son was the guilty person. To save
him from the gallows, she had avowed that
she was guilty Of the crime.

How TO TREAT Sun THoxE.--It is well
for the public to know, during the summer
season, that the following treatment of sum
stroke is the best and most successful that can
be adopted: Let the person thus affected be
removed to cool and private place, his cloth
ing taken of, and the body rubbed from hand
to foot with large pieces Of ice, at the same
time that pieces of ice are kept in the arm
pits. This simple treatment, If steadily per-
severed in, will save cases, which seem almost
desperate; and which, there is reason to be-
lieve under any other treatment would GER
tainly prove fatal. e.

Value of Lands in Ten.
neSSee.

The monthly report of the
Department of Agriculture for
March, issued by the United
States Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, has the following:
Our returns from Tennessee indi-
cate a general decline of fifteen
to twenty per cent. in the value
of farm lands, as compared with
the census estimates of 1860,
though several counties report
no appreciable change, while 9th
ers report an active advance of
two to fifteen per cent. The heav
lest decrease is reported from Da
wilson and Henry counties, be
ing about fifty per cent, though
the former reports few sales at re
duced rates, unless under com
pulsion, while in the latter the
decline is attributed to "the dilap
idated condition of houses, fenc
ing, and the wild growths conse
quent upon the war, together
with high taxes, etc." Weakley
and Meigs report 40 per cent. de
cline; Rhea and Lincoln, 50
Haywood, 10: Hawkins, Monroe
Polk, Coffee, Perry, 20; Hickman
16; Bledsoe and Giles, 10; Greene
8 to 5; while Williamson, Unior
and McNairy remain at about thu
same figures as in 1860; Mont
gomery reports 2per cent. increase
Sewer and Campbell, 10 per cent.
and Marion from 10 to Is pc
cent. The same general causes
however, which have tended t.
depreciate real estate, and par
ticuiarly farm lands, in the South
ern States, have operated in Ten
nessee, though not to the same
extent, nor is it probable that {
return to former values will be 81
long delayed, there being less ne
cessity to sacrifice and not so strons
a disposition to sell at any price
