wIsTAR's BALsAM OF WILD cHERR

WISTAR'B BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY
For the cure of Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Asth-
ma, Influenza, Group, Whooping Cough, Bron-
chitis, Predisposition to Consumption, &C., &C.
This great remedy Is too well known and ID
performing too much good to make it necessary
to 20 into an elaborate discussion OF its merits.
Suffice it to say that it still maintains its supre-
macy in curing diseases of the most obstinate
character and that all who suffer from the above
complaints, after having tested this remedy, sell
dom have occasion to resort to other appliances
to insure perfect restoration to health.
From Hon. w. II. JONES, of West Dover, VT
81 have been troubled from my boyhood with
chronic or hereditary lung complaint. Some
wears since, early in the wi ter, Il took cold,
which as usual settled into a severe cough, which
continued to increase the season advanced, al
though made of all the cough remedies
had knowledge Of. My family physician also
prescribed tor me, but i experienced no relief.
During all this time L gradually running
down losing flesh and strength, until my friends
thinking | should waste away in consumption.
While Ia Bottom, during the spring following,
WAS induced TO try Wistar's BalSam of Wild
Cherry. After one days trial was sensible that
it was relieving me in ten days time my cough
had entirely ceased, and l was soon restored u
health and strength. i have ever since kept the
Ba sam in my house, and whenever any member
of my family has Il cough cold, IL is pnmedi-
ately resorted to. No family should be without
it"

THE NITRO GLYCERINE EXPLOSION
AT HoosAC TUNNEL. Prof Mobray, the
manufacturer of the nitro-glycerine used
in the Hoosac tunnel, furnishes the
North Adams Transcript this account of
the recent explosion at the east end, by
which three men were killed, two of
them being blown into fragments:
On Saturday morning at 10 o'clock, the
employees at the east end of the tunnel
were startled and deafened by tremen-
dous explosion in the Cascade ravine, sit
uated about 80 rods from the entrance of
the tunnel. Mr.. Parker, foreman machin-
list, and MIR. Ayres, superintendent of
machinery. were near the compressor
building, and feeling the explosion, hur-
ried toward the ravine, and perceived a
column of debris, like cloud, circling
some three hundred feet high. between
the steep sides of the ravine. Mr.. Hol-
ven, the foreman of the works, who was
near the mouth of the tunnel, the in
slant he perceived the direction the
splinters we're taking, hurried to the spot,
and found one of the blasters, Lamon-
tame, lying on the ground, mortally
wounded, and distant about thirty feet
from the spot where the magazine had
been. Lamontaine was bleeding from
mouth, nose and breast, but sensible, and
said, s.The two others are in the maya
zine" An iron kettle over wood fire,
gypsy fashion, was undisturbed, and full
of water boiling rapidly. The FIRE was
burning briskly, but was not disturbed.
A crater of twenty feet diameter and Eve
feet deep was all that was left to mark
where the magazine once stood, and the

Ruthless tyrnnt, savage foo,
Thou hast filled tho Southron's cup Of WOO,
Run 1t ovor, fill 1t up.
Even now, we drain II, drop by drop,
Drink to our shame. and buried glory,
And lot them tell the coward story,
OF our property stolen-our homestead
burned,
And Southern hearts to traitors turned,
Southern Sons have blcd and died,
Aud Southern hearts still blood;
A. wc sit by our ruined hresidc,
And rccail the accurscd deed;
For like Esnn, some huve sold
Their birthright, for the Tyrant's gold
Tho Spring>time Of life my o past,
Tho Summer too Is gono;
And Autumn Is horo, all faded, and serc,
Tho Winter soon will come
No homo. no where to lay my hoad,
No earthly plnco Of rcst,
No hope but In tho grave, a bed,
In Heaven, homo with the bIost.
Throughout eternity, to sing,
In Hcaveu, an everlasting Spring.
