new store on the old site, so to 81 Michigan
avenue-a massive iron and stone-front build
ing, 60x130 feet, with six floors. admirably
lighted, railways, elevators and all the an
plianccs for handling their immense stock of
iron, steel, nails, spikes, bolts, horseshoes,
vises, anvils, wagon and carriage wood mate
rails and carriage hardware. Their store is
heated by steam, and has all the conveniences
for receiving, storing, packing and shipping
goods which the experience of twenty-fiv
years in the business could suggest
They have a larger and more complete
stock, and SO more goods in their particular
line, than any house in the United States.
Their enterprise. integrity and fair dealing
have made their firm name SYNONYM for up-

trade Is so directly connected with productive
industry, that its large and rapidly increasing

Medical Notes.

| STRYCHNIA FOR BLINDNESS. Professor
Nagle OF Tublngen, has published reports
OF cases in which he has, by the use OF
strychnia, restored sight TO patents suffer-
ing from decay of vision or from blindness.
Strychnia, as is we'll known, is deadly
poison, but it has a wonderful effect in
stimulating the nerves, and Professor
Nagle found that in diseases of the optic
nerve, whether functional or organic, its
operation was alike speedy and ef6cacious.
The quantity used is of course exceedingly
small-one fortieth of grain-mixed with
water, and this solution is not to be swal-
| lowed, but is injected under the skin of
one OF the arms, which seems to render
the result more remarkable. This remedy
has also been tried by oculists elsewhere,
and with marked success.
EMBALMING BODIES BY INJECTION
| the system Of NJ. Gannal of embalming
bodies by injection, which was affe cted by
opening the .jugular vein or the carotid
artery, is probably to be superseded by NJ
Audigier's plan in which the preserving
| fluid is introduced through the mouth and
larynX. About six ounces of the fluid is
sufficient for the purpose, and the body
should be covered with some vegetable
powder soaked In the same lia uid The
body Is by these means completely pre-
served, and is entirely "mummifed3' it &C
quires durability equal to that of wood
or stone, and the facial color remains the
same as it was at the moment of decease
The most eminent physicians, surgeons
and anatomists in France have testified to
the efficacy of this system, when has, in
addition to the advantages already men,

Church Silver Weddings.

Silver weddings, between church and
pastor, are likely to become quite the
proper thing to celebrate in New York.
Mr.. Beecher's has been closely follow
ed by that of the Rev. DIR. Sarles, of
the Central Baptist Church OF Book
Ign. Both have been spoken of as de
lightful occasions, though differing
very materially from each other. At
the last, one of the features of the
evening was an address by the Rev.
John Heigge, who deplored the present
sensational style of preaching; thought
the Slough of Despond not been i'm
proved since Bunyan's time, but had
been ignored and bridged over by the
ministry, and then-rather NAL q pro-
pos, unless the "Slough of Despond'
suggested it-branched off into dis
sertation on matrimony, which, though
decidedly lively, savored of the g SEN
sationar' which he condemned.

Natural and Artificial Nan,riuG.

The American Rural Home publishes a
communication from + T. Root, one of
the best farmers of the country, on the
subject of manures, in which he makes the
following statement, showing the superior
ity Of raising and ploughing in heavy
crops of manure over Il system of negli-
gence called manuriag in the natural way:
Two adjoining fields, divided by rail
fence have been long under cultivation,
and clover was often plowed in Us a
manure for succeeding wheat crop. The
fence was taken away, and the whole as
one field, summer followed and sown with
wheat The strip where the fence had
stood, and where the grass had So long
grown and dccaved ON the surface, did
not produce nearly the crop which grew
on the other side where the clover had
been ploughed under.
There were strong reasons for TINS
difference. The grass which grew and
decayed ons The surface afforded little less
than vegetable mould This could not
enrich the soil several inches down; and
did not possess in itself the fertilizing
character of clover. The clover was
plowed IN, and was ultimately mixed and
diffused all through the soil. where the
roots Of growing plants were to penetrate
The vegetable mould remained only on
the surface, end could only operate as a

Well, Gods heaven will shine as brightly
There as here, around my bed,
And.the stars for death-lamps nightly
Shall be hung above my head.

THE latest advises from England
give encouragement of a good foreign
market for American produce. The
deficiency in the crop is stated at TWEEN
tv per cent. OF the usual yield, and the
wheat requirements of the United King
dom for the harvest year ending with
next August at about 50, 600, 600 bush
els. The deficiency of the potato crop
in the Kingdom is said to insure a
good market for the heavy surplus of

A FIXED FACT IN PHARMAcY.-Con-
sldering the multitude of diseases, it Is
amazing that we live: In view of the
countless remedies for them, it is Won
derful that we die. Unfortunately,
however, all the diseases are realities );
whereas most of the remedies" are
httD'bugs. One exception to the latter
rule demands the recognition and
approval of the press. We refer to
DE-. JOSEPH WALKER's VINEGAR BIr-
TIERS. OF the Doctor himself, we know
nothing ; but of his medicine we can
speak from observation, for it seems to
have found its way into almost every
household. Probably it is more ex-
tensively used IN this country, as a
family remedy, than any other prepa-
ration, although it has not vet been
before the world three years. Where

The Mccullough Iron Company, whose pur

for the erection Of a sheet-iron mill, has already
been announced in the COMMERCIAL, will proba-
bly, begin their building early in the Spring.
This Company have other works at Elkton
North East, and Rowlandsvlle rum respective
" by the water-power of the Big Elk, North
East, and Octoraro creeks. Mills which roll
sheet-iron usually employ water power, for the
reason that in melting for sheets there is not
enough waste heat to make steam in the boilers
for driving the machinery, as is tine case in
other rolling mills. But during the last season
the streams were 30 low, (even the Octoraro
which is a fine, well-fed creek,) that the works
Of the Mccullough Company have hardly been
able to produce more than half their usual ca
pacity, and they have with difficulty supplied the
demands of their customers. They have there
fore determined to locate the new mill in this
city, and to run it by steam.
The mill il the present plans should be car
