CURE OF KIDNEY AND LIVER AFFECTION OF A
PATIENT SEVENTY EIGHT YEARS OF AGE.
THANKS TO MR.. HELMBOLD.
GIRARD, Pa, March 81, 1869.


EDITOR COsMoPLITE: desire, as an unsolicited
tribute to the merits of Hcmbold's Buchu, and for
the benefit of those similarly afflicted myself, to
say that after consulting many eminent physicians,
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 Helmbolds Buchu, which
commenced using with little faith and no apparent
beneficial results for about month. At the expir
alton of that time, however, l thought commenced
to experience slight relief which encouraged me to
persevere in its use, and now, at the expiration OF
four months, although | am an infirm old man,
nearly ~ years of age, and consequently medicines
cannot be expected to favorably affect me they
otherwise would, have found such unspeakable
relief and permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbold's
valuable discovery, that feel l ought to publicly
record the fact, as an acknowledgement to him and
valuable suggestion to the public.
Yours respectfully, ID. NJ. LAREN.

"Buchu" in his house again. Your preparations

THE GREAT AND CRYING Evm
OF FOCAL TAXATION,

The evils and burdens Of local taxa
ton in Ohio are becoming enormous
For example it appears from tables COLI
lated in the Cincinnati Gasefe. from
which we quote, that in the city of Cam
ton, Stark county, the local taxes are
small fraction short Of 4 perc cent? but
as Canton has been recently -=ca
ing water works she may be excused.
In Toledo, however, the rate exceeds
a per cent; and how Toledo can pos
sibly flourish or grow under such load
is one Of the unsolved problems OF polite
ical economy. That she can not c1u-
tinue so to do, and that unless In some
mode her people find relief, this won-
derfully energetic and ambitious city
viii be checked in her career toward
greatness, is as certain as that amy .egit-
innate effect will follow its cause.

ooRREsPoNDENOE CARDS.

In his annual report the Postmaster
General describes the system of cores
pondence by cards:
These cards are made Of good stuff
paper, of convenient form and size.
The front or face of the card is ruled for
the insertion of the address, and bears
the Post-Office stamp. On the reverse
side there is room for a short letter or
message, which may be printed or writ
ten in pencil or ink. They require no
folding or envelope, specially adapted
for circulars or short communications,
and are furnished to the public at the
value of the postage stamp impressed
upon them, which is in Great Britain
half a penny, being one-half the estab-
lished inland letter rate of postage. 1he
advantages claimed by their use consist
in increased celerity and ease OF busl-
ness and social ntercommunicahon by
disDensing with much of the ordinary
epistolary form and appliances, and by
having always at hand ready for use at
any moment,--in the street, on a jour
ney, or in places where pen, ink, paper
and envelopes are not accessible or readi-
ly obtainable,-th essentials for letter.
For many messages where the telegram
is now used-such as orders, invitations.
inquiries, or other requirements of busi-
ness or social Ife-these cards would be
welcomed by the public as simple in
expensive and convenient means OF IN
tercourse.

(E be contlnued,)

Necl1-tie parties are the latest social
absurdity in New York Each lady
about to attend one of these parties
makes a gentleman's bow, or neck-tie,
Of a piece of the material of the dress
she is to wear. These neck-ties are all
taken to the house of the person who
gives the party. and deposited in a bag.
When the gentlemen arrive each goes
to the bag and selects neck-tie, which
he puts on. It's then his duty to become
the cavalier of the lady (for that eVening)
who wears a dress corresponding to the
tie he has appropriated.
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1870-12-23

The statistics Of Chinese immigration
show that there are less than one hun
dred thousand of these almond-eyed
people in the United States. The largest
number that arrived in any one year was
less than sixteen thousand, while at least
twenty-five per cent. Of this number re-
turned to their native country. At this
rate there is no occasion for alarm lest
we be overrun by an irruption OF bar
barians from the Flowery Kingdom.

MY LITTLE LADY.
DaintiIy dressed
In her Sunday best,
Walks my little lady.
Her froek is white, and worked AL round
Her sleeves with bOnny bows are bound;
A sash as blue as summer skies
Yet not so blue as her sweet eyes
Clasps my little lady
Such fairy shoes, so small and neat,
Are made to hold her tiny feet;
Her socks are worked so tight and trim,
And softly clasp each mOttled limb
OF my little lady.
Her hair beneath a string of pearls
Escapes in golden shining curls;
The pearls are Of the rainbOW's hue,
Her curls like sunny beams burst through:
Bright little lady.
With many a blush and many a smile,
That tells of a heart so free from guile,
But shows forth slight touch of pride the
while,
Daintily dressed
In her Sunday best,
Walks my little lady.
