MOLTEN IRON FOR CUTTING SHAFTS.

ABufialo correspondent writes: at is
frequently very difficult to break up great
shafts of cast-iron when necessary to pre-
pare them, for the furnace. Old cannon
have, therefore, sold low. Upon some,
powder und nitro-glycerine have been
tried In vain. Some have been burst by
ice, others by wedges driven by machine
ry, or long continued hard labor. into the
muzzle Here they are cut in two by II
continuous stream Of molten iron, which
wears away the iron as a stream of hot
water would eat into mass of ice. The
gun is rolled upon frame in front OF and
level with the furnace mouth. Then the
nuxzie end is showed in as far as possible
among other iron, the opening filled up
and luted around the gun, the end OF
which Is melted Of. At the next charge
il Is showed in another length, and Is thus
reduced until the breach can finally be
rolled in, and thus finished without any
more expense than with pig or scrap-iron.

There is Il cheap mosquito-bar in vogue
among the plantation hands and boatmen
in some parts of the South, which answers
every purpose to the letter: it is common
petroleum. A small quantity is dropped
ON piece of cotton, and then squeezed
out as dry as possible; after which the
cotton is rubbed over the face and hands.
No mosquito will alight where the scent
has been left. | have tried it and then ex-
posed myself to clouds of them, on vari-

TO PHYSICIANS.
NEW YORK, August 18th. ISIS


Allow me to call your attention to my PREP.tR-
ALTON OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BCCHU.
The component parts are BUCHC, LONG LEAF,
CUBEBS, JUMPER BERRIES.
MODE OF PREPARATIoS.-Buchu, in vacuo.
Juniper Berries by distillation, to form fine gin
Cubebs extracted by displacement with spirits OBJ
tanned from Juniper Berries; very little sugar is
used, and a small proportion of spirit 1t is more
palatable than any now in use.
Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is of dark
color. 1t is plant that emits its fragrance; the
action of fame destroys this its 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 added to prevent fermenta-
ton upon inspection, it will be found not to be a
Tincture, made in Pharmacop9a, nor is it a
Syrup-ana 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.4 t
Hoping that you will favor it with trial, and
that upon inspection it will meet with your appro-
baton. .-

H. T. HELMBoLD, Druggist-DEAR SIR: l have
been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with
gravel bladder and kidney affections, during which
time have used various medicinal preparations,
aud been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively adj
vertised consulted my family physician in regard
to using your Extract Buchu. ..
did this because had used al kinds of adver-
lised remedies and had found them worthless and
some quite injurious; in fact, despaired of ever
getting WELL and determined to use no remedies
hen eater unless knew of the ingredients. 1t was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As You
advertised that it was composed of bu rhu, cubebs
and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys
ician an excellent combination and with his adj
vice, after examination OF the article and con-
sulting again with the druggist, concluded to try
it. commenced to use 1t about eight months ago,
ut which time was confined To my room.
From the first bottle was astonShed at the ben
able to walk out. felt much like writing to you
my improvement might only be temporary, and
effect perfect cure, knowing then it would be of
| am now able to report that q cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
| have not used any now for three months, and
iecl as well in all respects as ever did
Your Buchu being devoid OF any unpleasant taste
and odor nice tonic and iuvigorator of the system
do not mean to be without ii whenever occasion
may require its use in such affections.

THE trouble with onr mail line from
Salem to this place has finally been
settled, and it has been deci led that
our townsman, Jessie Lewis, is entitled
to carry the mails. As we understand
it, he was the lowest bidder, and it was
awarded to him by the Government /;
but for some reason, of which we are
not fully advised, the Post Master of
Salem, or the postal agent, Underwood,
claimed that Lewis did not produce the
proper papers on the 1st OF July to en-
title him TO the mails, and claimed also
to have the right to employ special
carrier, and Mr.. Clark, who had for
merly carried the same, was employed,
and has carried them until now. We
know nothing of the particulars in re.
gard to this matter, but we are glad il
is settled. Mr.. Lewis is a resident OF
our own town, and clever gentleman
We wish him all kinds of good luck,
and hope he may find it paying

CAssERLY AND CoLE ON THE SITu- |

CAssERLY AND COLE ON THE STU
ATIoN-W hen doctors disagree, pa-
tients die. Senator Eugene Casserly,
in response to a sercnade, few even
ings since, ascribed the prevailing dull.
ness of the times in California to the
high rate OF taxation imposed by the
Federal Government, which had para
lyzed the energies of the nation, and
that California felt 1t as we'll as her
sister states east of the Rocky Noun
tains. Senator Cornelius Cole made a
speech in answer to serenade on
Thursday evening last, and ascribed
the hard times to the changes in busi-
ness consequent upon the completion OF
the Pacific Railroad. He believed that
with little time, aud more attention
paid to manufactures, California would
come out with flying colors, These are
the opposite views of California s states
men. Which are correct ? 1t seems
to us that Coles views are the more
comprehensive and logical. - Chronicle
And we think the response of Cas-
serly sounds like the talk Of school,
boy, while that of Cole is statesm anlike.
