Story of a Game of Cards.
From the s. F. Chronicle.


 One hot afternoon in the month of August, 1867, threo men sat arouad table in pri- yate parlor at the Hotel Darmsdatd, at Ems, Germany. The most conspicuous of the group was a large man with bald head, greyish blue eyes, heavy, light-colored moustache and an air about him that would have done honor to the imperial purple. This parsonage had even then achieved some fame and was tolerably well known to reading people by the name Of Bismarck. Next to him sat an- other bald-headeG individual inferior to Bis. marck in stature, with border of black hair about the base ot his skull that looked like the rim of an old felt hat (ruthlessly robbed of it's crown) condemned to remain there ss a permanent fixture. During the Crimean war the father of this man figured at the Cabinet Councils in St. Petersburg as Count NesBolrode. but the son was oily known as a clever gamester and Habitue of the fashionable European watering places The third member of tue party was a little fellow (so little that his feet scarcely touch ed the iiOor) with dark, piercing eyes, swarthy skin, aud vivacity enough for 6 half doz- en ordinary men, At the time of which ws speak he was tke French Consul at Stuttgart
 All of them had been psrsaking freely of wine, and each in turn shufisd the cards with vim that the generous grape impsrts even to the most Phlsgmatic temperament.

This work is one of the most remarka Die
literary success OF ths year, having already
reached a sale of 40,0 0 copies. with lar
ger demand, as the publishers assure US,
than ever before. Scientific and yet emf
nently practical, it treats of a most import
ant class Of subjects, which, unfortunately
it has hitherto been left almost entirely to
the quack, the emperic, Or the sensational
lst, to 'write up for the million. The ia
bic of contents includes such head In es as
the following:
The distinction of the sexes Persons of
both sexes and of no sex. The age of nu-
bility. Love. Love is eternal. OfDivorce.
OF Courtship. How to choose husband
Shall cousins marry2 Advice to wives
who desire to have children. The limta
ton of offspring. Transmission of talent
and Of disease. Birtb-marks and how 10
prevent them. Signs of pregnancy. Con-
inement. Nursing. The change Of Life
Difficult as 1t may appear, these subjects
are handled with such precision and firm
ness, and yet 80 delicately, that the work
has received the hearty endorsement of
many of the most d distinguished physicians,
clergymen, and philanthropists of the count
ry. Among the number are Ex-Surgeon
General Hammond, Henry Ward Be ech er,
Rev. Horace Bushnell, D. o.. Rev. DR.. Mark
Hopkins, President of Williams College
with many ssother names equally eminent
The work is sold through local or travel
ing agents entirely, and, in our judgment,
offers an extraordinary opportunity for Sc
curing very lucrative business.

TO THE NERVOUS,

The natural result Of exhaustion OF
strength by excessive labor or action, is a
feeling of weakness, dulluess, heaviness,
WEAKNESS, languor of the body or mind, &c.
Persons of weak constitution, or whose
habits are sedentary, frequently complain Of
this relaxed condition of the vital energies ;
and when persons OF a nervous temperament
are thus weakened and debilltated, disease
inevitably follows, unless it is at once check
ed and overcome. All who suffer from these
causes alike require a remedy which will
strengthen the system without exciting it,
and awake feeling Of true enjoyment, so
that life may become a source of pleasure
MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS has won its
way into the confidence of thousands of this
class Of persons, who warmly endorse it AS
the best invigora ting agent, and the most
potent and q nial of all tonics and altera-
tives for strengthening and restoring the
physical constitution
