THIS preparation is composed entirely OF veseta-

When the originator lived in ,sew Hampshire, at

eion, some very severe cases of Erysipeas we're
treated with, and they were cured Erysipelas
sores, c;rbuncics, those ugly, painful ulcers,
were entirely removed wherever this medicine
was faithfully used. So It Vas with Scrosila and

"a PIea, for Mean Men"

A correspondent in one of our exchanges
undertakes the defence of mean men," a.
close calculators are sometimes called, as fol
lows:
"Who makes the better husband? At the
risk of bringing down torrent Of malediction:
on my unprotected head, [ shall still adhere tt
the man who is supposed to have no heart o.
genuine human sentiment. The good fellow
for lover; the mean man for husband. The
latter will rob all creation to supply his house
hold-the former will rob his family to supply
his friends. Form all the married women in 8
solid column up and down Second street, anC
if don't get ninety nine votes out OF one hun
dred in favor or my proposition, will treat tc
barrel of gin and water on the occasion OF the
first election of female President. Good tel
low, all love-mean man, all business. One
takes his wife to the opera in a four horse car
riage-the other rides triumphantly in a secret
omnibus The good fellow never can be cross
to anybody but his wife, for fear Of making him
self unpopular-the mean man is SO sour with
the rest of the world that he has not one par
tice of i'll temper to spare at home
Love rules the court the camp the grove,
For love is Heaven, and Heaven is love"
but it won't buy beef The mean man seldom
gets 'salubrious, he is too mean. His wife Is
never Jealous. She knows all women hate him,
because he is mean, and she rather likes it
She laughs and grows fat Good fellow drinks
too kind hearted to refuse-and he loves ev-
erybody. Good fellows wife pale and emacia-
ted and full of sorrow. Mean cuss' wife hale
and hearty-fat, red faced-and weighs ton.
Am [ right?"

Poland.

The kind philosopher, III. g., is
working himself up into great state oflndlgna-
ton at the wrongs of Poland 1.-The decree for
the absorption of Poland into Russia is an act
of INDUSTRIOUS iniquity, which has hardly paral-
lei in the history of the nineteenth century"
It is very well indeed that this assertion
should be qualified, for one can hardly conceive
how the impudence even Of the Tribune could
lead it to consider this ''monstrous iniquity" as
aoithout parallel in view of the history which
its Radical friends are making at the South
The Tribune but expresses the unanimous judy
ment of the civilized world, when it denoances
the course of Russia towards Poland, as mon
strous in it's inquiry. There is but one crime,
which one nation can commit against another,
Except total extermination,) greater than that
of overwhelming brave and free born people
by force of arms, and subjecting them to the
absolute rule of foreign Military authority,
and that has been discovered and put in force
on the Southern people by the criminal ingenu-
ity of the Radical Demagogues-int their attempt
to put the whites under the rule of negroes
their former slaves The Poles complain of the
very Military Despotism which the people of
the South ask as boon instead of the deep
degradation with which they are threatened by
the so-called Phianthropists of the North. In
the view Of the Tribune, the Gar of all the
Isoeo.dno 10 Soiaty VI d INDUSTRIOUS IHlqulty, put
the Congress of the United States In its course
towards the unreconstructed States, using its
power to hold them down. to be oppressed by
half civilized blacks, urged on by the most utter
ly depraved white men that ever cursed any
country, is only doing what is just and right =
Nothing is more surprising than the manner in
which men, who, in their private relations, are
honest and even benevolent and humane, when
they become politicians, are blinded by fanati-
cism and sefinterest, and commit without
hesitation the greatest crimes and outrages, on
humanity. Almost every word that Mr.. Greedy
has written, with the pretence OF virtuous in
dignation, of Russia and Poland can be made
to apply with double force, to the case of the
South. Tits difficult to see how Government
in many respects so far sighted as that of the
United States should ever have conceived the
idea of suppressing by decree ten automobiles y

For the Spectator. ]
TO MR., PIPES.

Presumptous man doth pipe and blow
His ever rank effusions:
That girls are all an empty show
Yet all the while will play the beau,
And court these vain decisions.
Poor man is silly in his ways.
Which costs him many troubles
He never means one-half he says
Or if he does why spend his days
In hugging empty bubbles.
He pours contempt on all the girls,
Without the least exception.
Yet their false smiles, their borrowed curls-
In fact, these very maade-atp girls,
Will drive him to distraction.
Let such men live and die alone,
Or else they'll give US trouble;
For if we wed such hearts of stone,
Too late we II find we are undone,
And woes are growing double.

Piper Drake & Co. have received, and will
continue to receive every few days, additions to
their already fine stock Of Goods; and as ''they
think they have the incest trade IN torn" they are
compelled to keep first class goods as they have
always done, and can and will sell them at fair
prices.
They will also keep what merchants call sec
onds" which are, in some instances, pretty fair
goods, but ean general thing, be gold for less
than first class goods cost.
They do not propose to sell sedsonabte goods at
cost for if they did their friends would not be-
lieve them. but they do promise to sell as loao as
any other house, for the same class of goods.
They have just received splendid lot of
Bleached and Brown Cottons,
which they can sell very reasonable.
They have also just received splendid lot of
Cotton Yarns, which they are selling at lower
rates than since the war, for CASH.

Sleeping in Church.

They would scarcely believe him when he toll
them that, when in Thurso some time ago, he O
one occasion saw six hundred people asleep Il
of DR.. Guthrie.
Ger their devoted head,
While the law thunderds
Snugly and heedlessly
Snored the six hundred.
Great was the preacher theme;
Screw'd on was all the steam;
Neither with shout nor scream
Could he disturb the dream
Of the six hundred.
Terrors to the right of them,
Terrors to the left of them,
Terrors in front of them
He'll itself plundered
Of its most awful things,
Weak-minded preacher f1ngs,
At the dumb-founded.
Boldly he spoke and well;
All on deaf ears it fell;
Vain was his loudest yell
Volley'd and thunderd;
For caring-the truth to tell
Neither for heaven or hell,
Snored the six hundred.
STILL with redoubled zeal,
Still he spoke onward,
And, in a wild appeal,
Striking with hand and heel
Making the pulpit reel
Shaken and sundered-
Called them the church's foes,
Threatened with endless woes
Family the answer rose
proofs of their sweet repose)
From the united nose
Of the six hundred.
L'ENVoY.
Sermons of near an hour
Too much for human power;
Prayers too, made to match,
(Extemporaneous batch)
Wofully Numbered;
With service of music
Fit to turn every pew sick
