This week We give, on our first page
the second of series of articles, which
we intend to give from time to time
The articles are from the pen of the Rev.
c. ii. Spurgeon, of England. Mr.. Spur
geon has a worldwide reputation as a
preacher and writer. His style is pro-
verbal, pleasing, and at the same time
instructive. Two weeks ago we gave
his ''Talk to Idlers." This week we lis
ten to him on 'Religious Grumblers., :,
We call the attention of our readers to
it, and hope they will not only read it
but study it, as they may get some ideas
from it, that may be of use to them.

Suicide.

A heart sickening affair took place
near Winesburg, in Paint Township, on
last Thursday. About seven o'clock in
the morning of that day, Frederick
Otzenburger was feeding a threshing
machine. Having run through all but
the last sheaf of wheat, he beckoned to
the driver to increase the motion, and
when at the highest speed, thrust his
head into the machine, and had the
whole upper part of his head taken off.
He lived few hours only. For several
days previous he had been in rather
singular state of mind. We have sell
dom, if ever, heard of a more terrible
mode of suicide.

in the ague districts literally beyond account,
and we believe without a parallel in the history
of Ague medicine. Our pride is grafified by the
acknowledgements We receive of the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other rem
edes had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident IN, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will DO
protected by taking the IGUE CURE daily.
For Lirer ComPiaints. arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, it is excellent remedy, stmu-
latmg the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
is an excellent remedy, producing many truly
remarkable cures, where other medicines had

| The grain markets still remain in very un-

tions, as prices do not remain the same two
days. We look for wheat to go to 81 90 before
the close of the week. There is scarcely any
market for clover seed, and our quotations will
be outside figures soon. 1t will no doubt go to

VAN AMnunap-See what the

VAN AMBuRGH.--See what the
Bloomington, ILL.,, Leader says, hav-
ing seen the Van Amburgh Circus
and Monagcrie, which is to exhibit
at Lancaster on Friday OF this week +:
"This great combination circus
and mcnagerie has come, given two
performances, paid the bills and gone,
and here our interest, personally,
may be said to have ceased and de-
termined--bu our duty would scarce
ly be done if we failed to certify to
the faithful manner in which the
many promises made in advance by
the indefatigable agent-Mr. New
kirk-had been redeemed by mana
ger and performers. The amuse-
ments of the Arena have come to be
as needful to The masses of our rural
and town population as they were to
the Romans, though happily, the
gladiatorial death struggles, in which
the blood Of captive and wild beast
alike flowed in the sight of applaud
ing thousands, to glut the rage of
heather emperors, have. given place
to the gentle and civilized passtimes
of equestrianship, a manly admira-
ton of the horse, and the accomplish
ments of his rider. These, with q
careful study Of the character and
habits of tue most wonderful of the
animal creation, may properly at
tract the attention, and occupy the
student of nature, as we'll as the mere
lovers of amusement.
II, therefore, we are TO have the
circus and menagerie, the general
good requires we should patronize
the best, and in the establishment of
Messrs. Van Amburgh & Co., the
public have, in its least Objectionable
shape, the required amusement and
instruction combined. The animals
embrace some of the rarsst ever
brought to this country, and the va
riety is kept up by constant import
ations, at least of the smaller species
in order to make good the losses by
deaths and accident. This alone in
wolves very heavy expense.
The equestrian troupes are not ex-
celled by any other ever seen in the
west; it is unquestionably superior,
in great many of minor amuse-
ments, to any other concern which
ever showed under canvas.
Lowanda's trained dogs astonish
and delight every one the marvel
GUS tricks of mules and ponies keep
the.multitude in roar of laughter,
while there is nothing to disgust or
offend ears polite. 1t is needless to
say that there was a crowd at both
performances, and every one went
away more than satisfied that he had
received more than the worth Of his
money.

f@- The following directions for
making extract of beef are exceed
ingly useful: "Take q pound of
fresh beef, as free as possible from
fat, cut it up into very small pieces,
or what is still better, shred it with
q fork. Sprinkle over it little salt
and put tho meat into a stone bottle;
such as mead or Scotch ale comes in;
cork tightly and tie the cork down
with a string. The cork is not usu-
ally put in until the steam begins to
escape from the bottle. Stand the
bottle in vessel of cold water,
which should be slowly brought up
TO the boiling point and kept at it for
at least four hours. To prevent the
bottle breaking against the side of the
vessel, by the movement of the boil
ing water, it should be secured by o
piece OF cord. Strain through q
piece of coarse linen; then let the
liquid stand awhile in a cup, and
with spoon, carefully skim off any
fat which may have arisen to the
surface. 1t may be seasoned to the
taste with pepper and salt. The
liquid obtained in this manner is one
Of the most agreeable and highly
nutritious articles of diet which car
be prepared for the sick"
