EVERY brilliant bud that blows.
From the blue bell to the rose
All the beauties that appear
On bosom of the year;
All that wreath the locks of Spring,
Summers ardent breath perfume,
Or on the lap of Autumn bloom,
All to thee their tribute bring.
Exhale their incense to thy shrine,
Their hues, their orders, all are thine"

SPECIAL NOTICES.

The Wear and Tear Of Life.-The cares.
anxieties and misfortunes of life have as much
to do with shortening it as disease. They are
in fact the source of many ailments and physi-
cal disabilities. Nervous weakness, dyspep-
STA, affections of the liver, disturbances of the
bowels, headaches, hypochondria and mono
mania are among these distressing fruits. II
is, therefore, of great Importance that persons
whose minds are oppressed with heavy bust
ness responsibilities, or harassed by family
troubles, or excited by speculation, or per-
picked by multiplicity Of enterprises, or in
any way overtaxed or oyerworked, should
keep up their stamina by the daily use of a
wholesome tonic. Thousands of persons thus
circumstanced are enabled TO bear up against
the difficulties in which they are involved. and
to retain their strength, health and mental
clearness. by the regular use of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Diseases which are prone to
attack the body when debilitated and broken
down by over-much FRAMEWORK, or exhaust
ing physical labor, are kept at bay by the re-
sistant power with which this Incompatible
tonic endows the nervous system and the vital
organs. At this season, when the heat is
evaporating the elements of strength from
every pore. an invigorant is absolutely essen
tial to the safety and comfort of the public,
and is required even by the more robust If
they desire to keep their athletic capabilities
in statu quo. Hence a course of Hostetter's
Bitters is particularly useful at this period Of
the year as a defense against the invicible dis
ease aAoat in a sultry atmosphere. 1t is the
most potent Of all preventive medicines, and
for all complaints which affect the stomach,
the liver and the bowels, and interfere with
the perfect digestion and assimilation of food,
il is the standard remedy.

A set OF paper car wheels on one OF
the Pullman cars running to Jersey City
have run over 100000 miles of track,
and worn out entirely one set of steel
tires, which have been replaced. The or
binary wheels, it is said, will run only
10000 miles.
A letter from London says: Eng

A railroad conductor residing at Brat
tleboro, Vt, being absent from duty sew
eral days during the late heated term,
accounted for his non-appearance by
saving he had had sun-stroke. Much
sympathy was accordingly expressed for
his misfortune, but commiseration was
speedily turned to congratulations when
it was learned that the stroke was in the
form of pair Of twin boys.

w
ease.
From the Spirit of the Times.
Frat, there does not seem to be any oeca-
sion for panic, or even alarm, and the re-
ports sent far and wide by the sensation
mougers are uncslIed-for and mischevioHs.
The march of the complaint since its first
appearance in Canada, and from the western
towns of this State to this city, has been
rapid aud its path wide, but in character 1t
is mild, and according TO all accounts it is
easily subdued By suitable treatment and
nursing care You will see by the tele-
graphic accounts from the West that the
railroad horses are affected, the stage horses
are affected, the citizens business and road
horses are affected In fine, all the horses
are affected, which is very alarming; but
then comes the statement that one horse is
dead, which is bad for the owner, but rather
consoling TO everybody else, because it
proves that the complaint is not dangerous.
To call this pestilence ID nonsense. 1t lacks
the great element of a pestllepce-morta
character. IL appears to us to be just like
