THANKS TO MR.. HELMBOLD.

GIRARD, IA, March 81, 1859.
EDITOR COsMoPLITE: DESIRE as an unsolicited
tribute to the merits of Hclmbold's Buchu, and for
the benefit of those similarly afflicted myself to
say that after consulting many eminent ply scians
and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies
in the vain hope Of finding relief from aggravated
kidney and bladder diseases, from which have
suffered excessively for many years, good fortune
finally suggested TO me Hembold's Buchu, which
commenced using with little faith, and apparent
beneficial results for about MONTH AT the expir-
alton of that time, however thought commenced
to experience slight relief which encouraged me to
persevere in its use, and now, at the expiration Of
four months, although l am an infirm old man,
nearly rs years of age and consequently medicines
cannot be expected to favorably affect me as they
otherwise would, l have found such unspeakable
relief and permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbolds
valuable discovery that feel i ought TO publicly
record the fact, as acknowledgement to him and
q valuable suggestion to the public.
Yours respectfully, DM LAREN.

A Catastrophe Averted.

At the Paris Opera House, the other night,
the infammaJle scenery took fire. The mana
gers alarmed the fremen, who promptly turned
their hose on the fire. At the same time the
manager said " a fine for the first person who
stirs from bis post Five francs for each one
remaining still" Nobody stirred. The ballet
dancers stoicaly allowed themselves TO be
deluged by tue water which poured from the
scenery. If one Of these poor creatures had
taken fight, or a single spectator in the house
had guessed what was going on behind the
scenes, the result would have been disastrous,
and the victims numerous. The coolness and
presence Of mind Of the manager prevented a
terrblecatastrophe. Theballet dancers earned
their five francs bravely. 1t was remarked in
the house, with some surprise, that it raincd
heavily on the stage, but it was not for mo-
ment suspected that a fire was raging while
the chorus and supernumeraries were so calm
and immovabe The act was almost finished,
and by the time it came to a conclusion the
fire was eXtinguished.

A Stupid Witness.

Those who are in the habit Of attending
Courts must have observed the difficulty un-
der which the lawyers aud judges labor some
times in getting witnesses to testify in legal
form. The following, which recently took
place in a certain court, is an amusing and
perfect example:
A man was caught in the act of theft, and
pleaded in extenuation that lie was drunk.
Court-CTo the policeman, who was wit
ness:)
What did the man say when YOU arrested
him ~
Witness" He said be was drunk

uttered them he didn't use the pronoun he,
did be? He didn't say he was drunk. "
Witness" Oh, yes, he did-he said he was
drunk he acknowledged the corn

stupidity You don't understand me at all;
l want the words as lie uttered them; didn't
he say was drunk ?"
Witness-lie iepricatingly.)-"Oh, no, your
Honor He didn't say yOa was drunk l
wouldn't allow any man to charge that upon
you in my presence"
Prosecutor" Pshaw, You don't comprehend
at all. His Honor means, did not the prisoner
say to you, was drunk 2"
Wtness-tredectivelyl-" Well, he might
have said you was drunk, but didn't hear
him."
Attorney for the prisoner" What the Court
desires is TO have you state the prisoners own
words, preserving the precise form Of pronoun
that he made use of in reply. Was it the lst
person, / the % person, thou or the Sl per-
son, he, she or it? Now, then, sir, with Sc

Ex-PREsfDEyT Johnson AND FAMILY.-A
republican paper at knoxville, Tenn, referring
to ex-President johnson, says:
"The ex-President spends most Of his time
in study. He writes great deal, and it is
generally supposed that he contemplates soon
publishing a book which shall be defense Of
my policy and his administration. He has
some visitors from a distance, and during court
sessions his house is daily filed from carly

country, who think him the greatest man Of
the age.

No Mother.

"She has no mother" What volume Of
sorrowful truth is comprised in that single
utterance, no mother We must 90 down the
hard rough path Of life and become injured to
care and sorrow, in their sternest forms before
we can take home to our own experience the
dread reality-no mother, without 4 struggle
and tear. But when it is said Of frail
young girl, Just passing from childhood tow
ard the life of woman how sad is the story
summed up in that short sentence Who
shall now check the wayward fancies-who
shall now bear with the errors and failings Of
the motherIesS daughter? Let not the cup Of
sorrow be overfowed by the harshness Of your
bearing, of your sympathizing coolness. Is she
needless of your doings? Is she forgetful Of
her duty? Is she careless of her movements
Remember, oh, remember, she has no mother.
And the poor boy, too, with none to care for
aim or to administer to his comfort. You see
him sportive with his companions, perhaps
rude may be at times wicked-he has ne mo-
ther to warn and chide him-no mother to
shed her softening influence over him. And
when he goes to bed, strange fears creep over
him, and desolation Of spirit that no tongue
can express. He is turned out into the world
to battle its storm alone, and when pain and
WEAKNESS press upon him, no word Of plying
sympathy falls on his ears-no soft hand soothes
and supports him. Remember, oh, remember,
he has no mother
