These hints and warnings, Vouchsafed as
su IN by a Kind Providence, ought not to
be disTee arded. If they are sighted as Is
too generally the case, the next thing may
be a fever, n severe bilious attack, or some
other form of acute disease. They indicate
as clearly as If the 1ntimatiOn were given
in articulate language, that the animal
functions are disordered. and the system
debilitated. Unde- these circumstances,
the onIy thing to be done Is to REGULATE
AND RESTORE. and the best regulating and

HIS EXCELLENT MEDICINAL
IL Compound was first prepared by DIR.

ployed with great success in eX polling hui
Inors from the blood; but in 1878 a medical
friend, who was quite celebrated as a phy-
slcian, especially in the treatIAent of hu-
mors. suggested some important improve
ments, which were ado pted, and which
best remedy for all kinds of humors
known TO 1.-THE faculty."
This preparation is composed entirely of
vegetables, among which are Sarsapariila,
Yellow Dock, Noble Pine, Mandrake, and
Bloodroot.
When the originator lived In New
Ham pshire, at GOfstown Centre, for the
space of thirty or forty miles around, and

1t effected. Though manufactured in large
quantities, the supply was frequently ex-

more TO be made. In that region, some
very severe cases of Erysipelas were treat
ed w1th-and they were curedl ErySi pelas
sores. or carbuncles-those ugly, painful
ulcers-were entirely removed wherever
this medicine was faithfully used. SO II
was with ScrOfula and Salt Rheum. The
Humor Doctor cured them.

The Wine Vaults Under London
Docks.

A correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Evening Bulletin writes gusta-
tory letter, giving his experience in
visiting the subteranean wine vaults
of London:
The London docks, visited by all
foreigners who pass through London,
are objects of great interest, viewing
them from the outside, as harbors,
where canal crosses canal, till they ex-
tend to a city combining the two
strange effects of Venice with her H.
quid thoroughfares, and China with
her floating houses.
But under this scene, familiar to ev-
cry one from description, if not actual
view, is a still more curious sight,
which it i more difficult to obtain
Thanks to the efforts of relative of
merchant who had stores deposited
there, we were provided with a pass
to the wine vaults of the East Cooper,
or branch of the London docks. There
were six in the party, and after long.
rainy, muddy drive through the old
part of the city, past Billingsgate fish
market, where cockney men and boys
substitute the world renowned fish
women of the past, and there is less
sauce sold with the fsh-past the
Tower, vii, its many towers and
gloomY uailycments, we at length ar
rived at the entrance of the docks. A
government official examined our pass
es, and we drove on through a will
derness Of casks, coils of rope and
heaps of bran, till we reached the door
of cellar No. 4. Going down flight
of stone otePS, we came TO sort of
vestibule, where. on one side, was an
office for the examination and signing
of passes; on the other a place fitted
up with shelves, having brass eyes
like those made to receive the ends of
door bolts, a long wedge shaped wal
nut paddle, with metal lamp on the
broad end sticking in each eye.
An oily fingered, dirty faced indi-
vidual, strikingly resembling Lamps
of 'Mugby Junction, stood in the shade
of this recess, companion sitting be-
hind him, whose name was James,an
number two as calendar on the wall
informed US, over which was written,
"Usher through the vaults for Mon
day." lamps" placer light in each
of our hands, and we entered the
vaults. Imagine eleven acres of ground
or rather underground, under streets,
and below the water line of the
Thames, divided into long vaulted al
ley ways, covered with saw dust, a
double iron track for barrels to roll
on, running directly in the center, on
either side three tiers of barrels of
port, old port wine, amounting in all
to thirty-fve thousand barrels of port
alone-and you have one of the eight
cen large cellars under the docks
We had the rare privilege of tasting
the port number 000--three different
barrels. Tasting orders are frequent
ly given for sherry, but seldom for

speak of. He married in middle age,
for no'particular reason, it would ap-
pear. Charles Wesley had married,
and Whitefeld had married. and the
Reformer seems to have thought it
was inconsistent with his dignity that
he should appear incapable OF form
ing the same tie. His wife was a.
thorn in his flesh, prosecuting him with
(of all things in the world) her Jeal-
ousy of the female correspondents,
who are the invariable solace OF such
a man. He had bargained with her
that he was not to preach sermon
or travel a mile the less for their un-
ion; and probably Mrs. Wesley did
not see much good of a husband who
was always abroad in the world, jog
ging all over England and even Scot
land, no companion or help to her,
The foolish woman did what she could
to make his life burden to him for
twenty years, and then withdrew f..
nally, for no better reason than had
dictated her former vagaries. No
doubt his placid life was rufHed by
this disturbance, but there is no ap-
pearance that any profound love exist
ed in him to give sting to the irrl-
tation. He would seem to have had
no passions to wear him out; his
deepest emotions could be brought
before the brethren to be talked over
and settled. His natural heat OF tenn
per softened down as soon as he
came to have things his own way,-a
pleasant manner of subduing that
weakness. His intolerance was only
shown towards those who troubled
him with their difference Of opinion.
In short he was not man of dogmat-
ic genius, or commissioned to impress
new opinions on his race. His busi-
ness was to convince the country it
had a soul, and to drive it with vio-
lence, if necessary, by any means that
man may use, to save that soul alive.
He was trained for this work by the
trouble he had about his own, "mak-
ing" it "a the Irish say, in the first
half of his existence. and with natural
heat insisting that everybody around
him should join in the operation. His
own spiritual history is the chart by
which he guided the great ship of
which he was made pilot. In the
early part of his life he insisted that
every man should be an ascetic; in
the latter, that every man should be
converted by a conscious movement
of Heaven, illuminated from the Holy
Ghost. His determination and te-
nacity prevailed when a lighter pur-
pose would have come to nothing
To have brought together and con5ti-
tuted such community as that OF the
Methodists, is almost as great work
taken in merely external and polit-
ical point OF view, as that of founding
a kingdom, and in right royal guise
he organized and legislated for his
spiritual empire.
