THE PRUssIAN SOLDIERS.

II is impossible to conceive finer bodies
of men than those which daily arrive IN
Prussia to join their regiments. They be-
long to the first reserve, apd all between
the ages of twenty three and tw6nty-eight.
A very large number of them wear the
decoration they wore in the Austrian war,
and are all trained soldiers. AS the trains
arrive they are met by small party OF
soldiers. and the men are escorted to the
barracks of the corps to which they belong.
Here theya furnished with their uniforms,
kits. and arms, and are ready in half an
hour TO take their place in the ranks.
Nptbinr can exceed the order and reguari-
tvwith which everything proceeds To the
great credit of the Prussian soldier, l can
State that since my arrival in the country
I have not seen a single man In uniform
the worse for liquor Glory, indirectly,
makes man more thirsty than does patri-
otism. II is at crisis like the present that
the full value of the Prlssian military sys-
tenn is evident The whole of the regi-
ments belong to various localities, from
which they are exclusively raised. Each
regiment of the line has regiment of re-
serve composed exclusively OF the men
who have served their time in that regi-
ment. Consequently when the reserve Is.
as at present, called in, every man finds
himself among friends. BY his side is his
younger brother, around him are his neigh
bors. He is at home at once, and has. be-
sides. every incentive to distinguish him
self in action. for he knows that his neigh
bors are looking on. and that every deed
of daring will be noted and told at home.
II would be difficult to imagine any system
so calculated to make heroes. In regiments
raised like those of England the local con-
nection exists only in name, and soldier
can scarcely hope that his deeds of bravery
in the field will become the common talk
of his neighbors and townspeople, and that
the girl he loves will look with pride upon
him as the acknowledged hero of the To-
cality. OF course, under our present vol
untary system this could not be carried out
in England: but when the time comes that
our long g-talked-of reserve is to become IA
reality, it is to be hoped that this important
feature of the Plussian system will not be
lost sight of.-Berlia correspondence Of The
London Standard.

The Kidneys are two in number, situated at the
upper part of the on, surrounded by fat, and con
sistng of three parts, viz: the Anterior the Ineri
or, and the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs Interior consists of tissues
veins, which serve deposit for the urine and
convey it to the exterior. The exterior is Il con-
ductor also, terminating in single tube, and called
the .Creter. The ureters are connected with the
bladder
The bladder is composed of various coverings or
tissues, divided into parts, VIZ: the Upper, the
Lower the Nervous, ana the Mucous. The upper
eSpels, the lower retains Many have desire to
urinate without the ability; others urinae without
the ability n retain. This frequently occurs in
children.
To cure these affections, we must bring into ac-
ton the muscles, which are engaged in their vari-
Gus functions. If they are neglected, Gravel or
Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aware, that who
ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect the
bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh and
blood are supported from these sources.
GoUT, OR RhEUMATIsM.-Pain occurring in the
loins is indicative of the above diseases They
cur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky
concretions.
THE GRAvEL-The gravel ensues from neglect
or improper treatment of the kidneys. These
gans being weak the water is not expelled from the
bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes fever
ish, and sediment forms. 1t is from this deposit
that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues.
DRopsr is a collection of water in some parts of
the tody, and bears different names, according to
the parts affected, viz: when generally diffused
over the body, it is called Anasarca; when of the
abdomen, Ascites when of the chest, Hydrotho-
raX.
TREATMENT.-HelmbOld's highly concentrated
compound Extract Buehu is decidedly one Of the
best remedies for diseases OF the bladder kidneys
gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism and gouty
affections. Under this head we have arranged
Dysura, or difficulty and pain in passing water
Scanty Secretion or small and frequent discharges
of water; strangury, or stopping of water; Hema
turia or bloody urine; Gout and Rheumatism of
the kidneys, without any, change in quantity, but
increase In color, or dark water. Ii was always
highly recommended by the late DR.. Physick, in
these affections
This medicine increases the power of digestion,
and eXcites the absorbents into heolthy exercise by
which the watery or calcareous dispositions, and all
unnatural enlargements, well pain and in-
fammatiOn are reduced, and it is taken by men,
women and children. Directions for use and diet
accompany.

ALTON OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BCCHU

MODE OF PREPARATIoN.-Buchu, in vacuo
Juniper Berries, by disillation to form a fine gin
Cubebs extracted by displacement with spirits OBJ
tanned from Juniper Berries; very little sugar is
used, and small proportion of spirit. 1t is more
paatable than any now in use.
Buchu, prepared by Druggists, is of a dark
color 1t is plant that emts its fragrance; the
action of fame destroys this dts active principle
leaving dark and glutinous decoction. Mime is
the color OF ingredients The Buchu in my prepar-
alton predominates; the smallest quantity of the
other ingredients are added, to prevent fernenta-
ton; upon inspection, it will be found not to be a
Tincture, made in Pharmacopna, nor is it a
Syrup-and therefore can be used in cases where
fever or Inflammation exists. In this, you have the
knowledge of the ingredients and the mode of pre-
paration.
Hoping that you will favor it with trial, and
that upon inspection it will meet with your appro
baton.

II. 7. HELMBoLD, Druggist-DEAR SIR: l have
been sufferer for upwards Of twenty years with
gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which
time have used various medicinal preparations
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively ad-
vertised consulted my family phy sican in regard
TO using your Extract Buchu.
did this because had used al kinds of adver.
Used remedies and had found them worthless, and
some quite injurious; in fact, deepaired of ever
getting WE'LL and determined to use remedies
hereafter unless knew of the ingredients. Ii was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that 1t was composed of buchu, cubebs
and juniper berries, it occurred TO and my phys
ician as an excellent combinations and with his adj
vice, after an examination of the article and con-
sulting again with the druggist, concluded to try
it. commenced To use 1t about eight months ago
at which time was confined to my room.
From the first bottle was astonished at the ben
chcial effect, and after using it three weeks was
able to walk out. felt much like writing to you u
full statement of my case at the time, but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary and
therefore concluded to defer, and see il It would
effect perfect cure, knowing then it would be OF
greater value to you and more satisfactory to me
am now able to report that "a cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
have not used any now for three months, and
ieel as well in all respects as ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
ana odor nice Tonic and nvgorator of the system,
may require its use in such affections,
