SENTINELS FOR SAFETY.

There is in the blood an Independent faculty of
sensation, which gives expression by pain and in

Hence pain and Inflammation mean self-protection.
and are sentinels for the body's safety.

THE FORRTsN REVIEWS.

We have received from the Leonard
Scott Publishing Company, New York,
the North British Reciev for June. Its
contents are, !. A Liberal Education
Schools and Universities 3 MistraIs
Murio; 3. Saint Louis; a. Creeds and
Churches 5. Memoirs of Baron Bunsen;
6. The Greek Idyllie Poets Z. On Sleep
s. The History Of Writing. The eight
subjects here embraced constitute most
readable number. The article on Saint
Louis is faithful portraiture of man,
the whole Of whose eventful life was de-
voted to what he believed to be the cause
of right His repression of the rebel
lious spirit of the great feudatories;
his relations with England in con-
nection with the English possessions
in France; his conduct Of the
last great Crusades proclaimed in Europe
for the defense of Palestine; his legis-
lative and other reforms in the Internal
government of France, and his character
as sovereign; all these things have
filed considerable chapter in the his
tory Of the world, and yet form, in the
light of the great changes that have in.
teryened, matter for deep study and
thought
From the same publishers We have the
ReDiev for July. The opening
paper, on Salem Witchersft, Is Of special
interest here, and casts q hrid glow Of
fresh horror upon that scene Of delusion
and cruelty. The Apocryphai Bible Is
the subject Of curious criticism. The
modern Russian drama is interesting, as
is the account of Prince Henry, the naEi-
gator. New Germany and she National
Church give us the aspect Of the great
question on the continent and Of the
,trugeIe for disestablishment in England. |

A HEroKrEB OUTRAGE EXPOSED

\ REr0RTED OUTRAGE EXPOSED.
Great efforts have been made by Radi-
calls to show that the people in various
portions Of Middle and West Tennessee
are disorderly, and that the life Of a
Union man is not safe in such communi>
ties The object is TO get the militia or
dercd out, that q large hambsr Of Radi-
Gals, white and black, may get positions,
some for pay and others to wreak party
revenge upon their neighbcrs. One of
the resorts Of these men has been TO rep
resent that outrages have been committed
upon Union men, and IN nearly every
case where these reported ontrages have
been located, they have been shown TO be
without the shadow of foundation or
grossly exaggerated. One OF these Ku-
