be kept hand In every family, and indeed as NIL
are sometimes subject TO colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antiiote for them.
Although settled Consumption IL thought In

son or a daughter. The very arm
which props him Is taken away from
some productive labor. As he sits al
the table, his own guests are too idle OF
too unkind to make him a sharcI in
their mir,h. They grudge the trouble
OF that raised voice which alone could
make him one OF them aud when. he
speaks, it is only to bc put aside as
Ignorant, or despised as old. fashioned
obsolete. Oh, little do younger per-
sons know their power of giving pain
or pleasure +. 1t Is pain for any man
still in this world to be made TO fee
that he is no longer of ito be driven
in upon his own little world Of con
scious isolation aud buried enjoyment.
But this is his condition; aud if any
fretiulness Of temper has aggravated il

not amiable shall We pity that coud
tion the less I Shall we upbraid il
with that fault which is itself The worst

easy going, confdipg man, who mau-
aged to let everybody cheat him on,
Of his inherited estate. Ju t rs his
last farm was about to slip out of his
hands, he succeeded in raising the
money to lift the mortgage. Aaron
Remer, a prominent Mason, accom-
panied him to town. As they were
riding along on horseback, Zach say
to Aaron, in couliding toue.

Zach was not slow to comply; and

was administered and taken,
"Now for the secrets" exclaimed
the impatient and uusu.pecting vic,
tim.

"Thc second is like unto it. When

DEATu OF AN IRISH PATRIoT.-The death,
at Prague of Laurence Duffy, a com panion
Of Smith O'Brien of Irish revolutionary
fame, has revealed a strange history. Sincs
1850 Duffy has been teacher Of the English
language in that city. living in miserable
house. and. as every body thought. poverty
stricken. In the commencement of April he
was taken to the hospital. and feeling that
his end was approaching, ne called carriage,
drove to a notary and had him come into the
vehicle to take down his testament. lie
there willed two thousand fol ins to the advo-
cate rs his executor, two thousand forms to
mis- pr yscian. and twenty thousand forms to
his sister in Ireland. lie then drove back to
the hosnital. where be died about an hour
later. sixty-three years old. His rooms were
found to be very dirty, with scarcely any
furniture. In an old sack, however, were
iocnd number Of letters of great interest
from Mazzini. Garibaldi, the chiefs Of the
Irish movement, and many from Smith
O Brien. From these letters il is seen how
hard pressed Smith O'Brien was hy the con-
stables towards the last; when he fed to ths
hills, the peasants feared to give him shelter;
how he not wishing to bring injury upcn
them. determined TO go down to the plain. in
company with Duffy. lie was Just about to
enter railroad car when he wass arrested.
pnffy endeavored to shield his friend, but the
pistol Of policeman pointed Mt him brought
him 10 silence. Smith o Brien was taken ny

ever, escaped, fed {, the Continent, and lived
over twenty wears Of his life in Prsgue.-N.

SAN Joaquin VALLEY RAILRoAD-.The
Central Pacific Railroad Ccmpany have res
sumed operations upon the San JOAQUIN Val
ley branch Of their road ut Stanislaus river.
The rocd will cross that river about one half
mile below Murphy's Ferry. 1t was cnm-
pleted to the northern hank of the stream last
Winter. Within the last two weeks they
have commenced driving the pilings for tie
bridge and now have two pile drivers and
large force of men engaged in that work.
The distance from bank TO bank at the poiLt
crossed is twelve hundred feet. large pnr-
tion Of which, however. is land only covered
with water during the Winter season. Across
this land trestle work will he erected, rang
ing from fifteen to thirty feet in hight, while
the bridge proper will be from two to three
hundred feet ih length. The whole work is
n job of considerable magnitude, and il will
require considerable time to complete il. even
with the large force Of men now and hereaf.
ter to he employed. At present about ons
hundred men are engaged on the work.
Grading was commenced on the south side Of
Stanislaus river on Wednesday last, and n
large force of Cinnamon nre on the ground
n lush that work forward to tie Tuoumne
river Mt an early dav. That portion of the
road WILL without doubt, he ready for the

Stanislaus is completed. and cars may te ex-

November. Jt is now expected that the rosd'
will cross the Tnolumre about thrse md n.
half miles above Paradise, to which point
numbers Of the business men Of Paradise and
Tnolumne City propose 20 mcve ,heir build
ings and establish new town as soon ms the
point is fully ascertainsd, as, in their opin-
ion, considerable town may he exrected at
that point. 1t is claimed by those interested
that road can he constructed, in an essterly
direction, 10 take the trade of Tuolumnc
courty to that place, and as it is.much near
er the centre of the county than knights Fer
rv, the embryo town is expected to be made
the county seat of Stanislaus county, and be-
come the most important place in that por-
ton Of the valley. There is little probability
of the road being pushed further than the
Tuolumne this season, hut its extension to
that point will have tendency to greatly
hasten the development Of that portion Of the
