eonmeyds ftseyto epery lady aolo sees it, being the
most simple easily adjusted and perfect for its use
euer Introduced into the market.
All physicians recommend its use, and one
whose name is known and respected on both sides
of the oce;fn, buys and gives away large numbers
of them to his patients, declaring that most var
loose veins, weak and crippled limbs can be traced
directly to the stopping OF the circulation in the
lower limbs, land consequently in the whole sys-
tem,) caused by the old ligature or garter.
Being made entirely OF elastic 1t never strings
or wrinkles like cloth, but is as fiat and smooth
after wearing for months as when first used, and

from from the East and proposed to buy a horse
from his Kentucky acquaintance, who took
him out to his farm and showed him all his
horses no. S4 and the prices of each, but advised
the New Yorker to buy a certain colt as he
considered him the finest of the lot. But to
this the other objected and selected, on bis
own Judgment, rather Indifferent looking
one, instead, which was entered to run in
the three-quarter dash last Monday with II
the other colt which the owner had thouabt

money paid, and the colt delivered. He
was not favorite in the race, and sold low

Iceland.


Hopes are entertained that the blank in
the centre of the map of Iceland will soon
be filled up. News from Captain Burton
states that he is pushing forward over the
vast snow ranges in the unexplored por-
tons of the island, and in the course Of a
few weeks it is expected that he will have
examined the chief geographical features
Of this region, which it is said has never be-
fore been visited by man. Communication
will be maintained via Copenhagen and
Lerwick by the Danish government steamer
Diana, so that exploration in Iceland-thes
result of which is looked forward to with
great interest by the Icelanders, as well as
by men of science in this country and else
where-may be prosecuted as long as the
weather is favorable. Her Majestys ship
Nalorous, which is at present cruising on
the Icelandic coast, is also attracting con.
siderable attention on the part OF the in
habitants, as it is now, it is said, eight years
since a British war ship has been seen in
those waters.

Never q rustic amid the leaves,

Never a stir mid the heather bloom,

With his manly sunburn face,
With his clear dark eye and his tender smile,
With his manhood's supple gracel

THE LANDLADY,s DAUGHTER.
BY JOHANN LUDWIG UPLAND

Three student-cOmradesscros over the Rhine
Together they stopped at landlady's sign.
u" Landlady, have you got good beer and VINE?
And where is that pretty Dung daughter of thine?
My ale and wine are fresh and clear;
Ny daughter lies on her funeral bier
And when they passed to the chamber back,
There she lay in her coffin black
The first from her face the shroud.veil took,
And gazed upon her-a mournfuI look.
q All vert thou but living, thou o7ely maid,
would love thee from this time" he said.
The second covered the altered face,
And turned him, weeping, from the place:
g That thou should st lie on the funeral bier,
Won have loved this many year"
But the last still snatched away the veil.
And kissed her on the mouth so pale:
:. I loved thee ever-still love thee,
Thee will love through all eternity"

The newspapers of Sweden are discussing
the alarming decrease of population in that
country, which they attribute to emigra-
ton to this country. In 1868 the number
of emigrants had reached $4,000, more than
one-half of whom were able-bodied working
mechanics. In 1869 the exodus was still
greater, IS, 500 having left the country At
the date of August 20, there had left the
town of Getheborg alone 90, 463 people for
America, and they left regularly after at
the rate of BOO and 300 per week, This
drain has been since perpetually continued.
If to these be added those who emigrated
to other ports-to Germany, Tor instance, in
the capacity of domestics-it is not difficult
to understand the apprehensions felt in
Sweden at this depletion of her useful
labor.
