The Season of ExhaustiOn.--hO matter
how vigorous by nature the system and fhe

suffer more or less from the depicting effects

the vital forces must be met and counterbal-

iIation of the food aiken into the stomach
from which both the fluids and the solids of
the body are derived. Otherwise the physi-

DENTAL CARD.

ITO THE PUBLIC: WE WOULD CALL
/ attention to the Card Of DR.. A. .WRssoy,
especially to the last clause. As the whole
advertisement, hswever. speaks for itself. an
bears upon its face egotism, ignorance and
charlatanism. and regarded by. all intelligent
and honorable Dentists of both city and
country as a gross outrage and disgrace upon
the profession, we therefore propose letting it
pass with this just csnsure, further than to
notice the above clause alluded to. in which
the attention of the public is especially called
to the name of A. Wesson. and are cautioned
against installing the name (Wesson). or place.
etc., az others of similar name have often
been mistaken for his, etc. The correctness
of this statement we are compelled, however
reluctantly, TO admit. and for some eight years
have most earnestly endeavored to correct this
mistake, by constantly and eInphaticaly ex-
planning the common error with many, occa-
stoned by the similarity of names; but we are
sorry to say, Notwithstanding this continued
effort on our part, we have IS yet only par
italy succeeded. for the reason which we will
here explain. which is this That the said DR..

deny the above charge, we would here remind
him that this is only ONE, of some Six other
charges equally reprehensible and derogaiing
which were preferred "in due form" and ALL
fully su.tsined against him some time since, in
the MEMPHIS DENTAL SOCIETY. and for which
he was duly. and by unanimous rote, expelled.
We, however. more through sympathy to the
Doctor than a sense ofjustice to this commu-
Bity. determined never TO make publicity to
these summary proceedings. provided, how
ever, that he (Wesson) would not continue TO
disgrace the profession to which we have the
pride and honor OF belonging. and have strictly
adhered to this however, after he has been
known since to assume our name) until the
card referred TO made its appearance. and has
fer 20 long been srrayed before the public in a
NEST glaring tissue Of false representations,
and savoring of the most stupendous humbug-
gerry. We have, therefore. taken occasion.
however reluctantly. to call special attention 10

Salt.

The New York Tribune notices the
wonderful salt. deposits of Louisiana as
follows:
at has been known for several years
that there was most wonderful deposit
of salt in Louisiana; and now, since
this has been proved actually to be the
case, it is still more wonderful that was
not drawn upon to supply the Mississippi
country. The locality referred to is on
an island known as Petite Anse, in the
parish Of St. Mary, ninety miles west
ward from New Orleans, about mile
ard o half from navigable salt water,
aud something farther from the railroad
running from New Orleans to Opelousas.
The Bay of Atchafalaya lies few miles
to the south, and the adjacent country Is
similar to prairie, while it is but few
feet above the level of the sea. The
island contains about four thousand
acres, and it rises gradually hundred
feet or more, while the salt is found only
ten or twelve feet below the surface.
From analysis made at various times by
several chemists, this mineral has been
declared to contain ninety-five per cent.
of chloride Of sodium, or common salt.
/, is white and unstained, is in irregular
cnbical crystals about quarter of an
inch ia diameter, very firm, and has the
remarkable quality of being able to re-
stat moisture. In comparison with any
salt madeby boiling, it is OF superior purity
while there is no rock salt in the world
which excels it. In attempting to ascer-
tain the extent of this deposit, shafts
hf We been sunk to depth OF fifty feet
without finding limit During the war
the rebels mined considerable of it, end
NJ various times before and since at
tempts have been made to furnish 1T as
an article Of commerce, but owing to
want of machinery, capital and business
energy, little or no progress was made.
Recently, however, st. Louis house has
entered into possession, and, with the
requisite capital and skill, they have
erected steam engines, mills and other
works necessary for developing the
property, aud the time now cannot be
remote when Liverpool salt will cease to
be brought TO New Orleans in cotton
ships as ballast"
The Tribune expects this result to be
accomplished by means of machinery,
capital, business energy which are le-
climate and desirable sgencies-and
backed by the duty of one hundred to
one hundred and seventy per cent, on
foreign salt will, probably, be successful
But suppose that the St Louis company,
not content with this duty, and with the
prospects offered by its possession OF
adequate "capital, machinery and bust
nesa energy" should modestly ask for
another hundred per cent. or so, in imita-
ton of the Onondaga Salt Company. and
the iron and copper monopolists whose
sad condition, with one hundred per cent
annual dividends, the Tribune unceas-
iugly deplores, what would the country
say about it2 But whilst Northern COM
