Cur Tins OUr-If a person swallows
any poison whatever, or fallsinto con
yulsions from having overloaded the
stomach, an nstantaneousrcmedy, more
efficient and applicable in a larger mum
Der of cases than half dozen medicines
we can now think of, is heaping tea
spoon Of common salt aud rs much
ground mustard, stirred rapidly in a
teacup Of water, warm or cold, and
swallowed instantly. 1t is scarcely
down before it begins to come up,
bringing with it the remaining contents
of the stomach; and lest there be any
remnant of 4 poison, however small, let
the white of an egg, or teacup oi
strong coffee, be swallowed as soon as
the stomach is quiet; because these very
common articles nnllify larger number
of virulent poisons than any medicine
in the shops.

| HAVE DRANK MY LAST GLASS.
BY LOUISE S. UPHAM.

BY LOUISE S. UPLAM.
No, comrades, l thank you, not any for
me;
My last chain is riven, henceforward I'm
free
1 will 60 to my home and my children
tonight
With no fumes Of liquor their spirits to
blight,
And with tears in my eyes, l will beg
my poor wife
To forgive me the wreck | made OF her
life !
81 have never refused You betore!' Let
that pass,
For I've drank my last glass boys,
l have drank my last glass
Just look at me now, boys, in rags and
disgrace,
With my bleard, haggard eyes, and my
red, bleated face
Mark my faltering step and my weak,
palsied hand,
And the mark on my brow that is worse
than Gains brand
See my crownless old hat, and my ell
bows and knees
Alike warmed by the sun or chilled by
the breeze
Why, even the children will hoot as |
pass
But I've drank my last glass, boys,
have drank my last glass
You would hardly believe, boys, to look
at me now,
That a mothers soft hand was once
pressed on my brow,
When she kissed me, and blessed me,
her darling, her pride,
Ere she lay down 10 rest by my dead
fathers side
But with love in her eyes, helooked up
to the sky,
Bidding me meet her there, and whis-
pered, "Good-bye,"
And III do it, God helping! Your
smile let pass,
For I've drank my last glass, boys,
/ have drank my last glass
All. l reeled home last night-it was
not very late,
For I'd spent my last sixpence, and
landlords won't wait
On a poor fellow who's left every cent
in their till,
And has pawned his last bed, their cof-
ters to fill
Oh the torments felt, and the pangs
/ endured
And l begged for one glass-just one
would have cured
But they kicked ME out Of doors Il
left that to pass,
For I've drank my last glass, boys,
have drank my last glass
At home, my pet Susie, with her soft
golden hair,
1 saw, through the window, just kneel-
ing in prayer;
From her pale, bony hands, her torn
sleeves were strung down,
While her feet, cold and bare, shrank
beneath her scant gown;
And she prayed-prayed for bread, just
poor crust b;
For one crust-on her knees. my pet
darling plead
And Iheard, with no penny to buy one,
alas!
But I've drank my last glass, boys,
l have drank my last glass
For Susie, my darling, my wee sixyear
old,
Though fainting with hunger, and shiv-
ering with cold,
There, on the bare floor, asked God to
bless me.
And she said, "Don't cry mamma !! He
will for you see,
| believe what | ask for :! Then, sober
ed, / crept
Away from the house. and that night
when | slept,
Next my heart lay the LEp"E- o''
smile Let it pass,
But I've drank my last glass, boys,
l have drank my last glass
My darling child saved me Her faith
and her love
Are akin to my dear sainted mothers
above
/ will make her words true, or I'll die in
the race,
And sober Ill goto my last restingplace;
And she shall kneel there, and weeping,
thank God
No drunkard lies under that daisy
strewn sod !.
Not drop more Of poison my lips shall
e'er pass,
For I've drank my last glass, boys,
have drank my last glass !

How AZ Elk PRESIDENT REcovgRED
Ills OLD TAiLoRIxG TABLE.--ExPresi-
dent Johnson has been noted for his
kindness to tailors Some time since,
he loaned TO one of them, the old table
on which he used TO ply his shears and
needle, and from which he in an unpnr.
alleled career, rose to the Presidency.
During the cholera alarm of June last,
this brother left Greenyillc in bury,
taking his family with him to Bristol.
In the confusion he neglected TO leave
behind this celebrated table. Mr.. John
sou was prostrated by violent attack
of cholera, and could not look after out
door matters, and so the table found its
way to Bristol. OF course it was re-
garded by the family, AS too interesting
to be lost, and on Wednesday last, Mr..
- johnson. son Of the ex-Presi-
dent, arrived in Bristol in quest Of il,
and found il safely locked in one Of the
\. NJ IL o. cars, and snugly billed ioT
q distant Virginia town, TO which the
aforesaid tailor had already removed.
There was no use in warrant in dcti-
nue., for the service could not be made,
and as both table and tailor were liz
Virginia, an attachment could not be
gotten in the State, and one from 3
Tennessee Justice could not be served.
Did the pursuit end here Not bit
of it. Learning that many Of the Fir-
ginia cars are backcd across the State
line 10 the Tennessee switch, in order
to get them on the proper track, Mr..
johnson procured from Q Justice, on tho
Tennessee side, warrant Of repleyin,
and when this car was being switched
for its Virginia journey there was pre-
sent Tennessee officer, who very dex-
terousIy switched the celebrated table
out OF il, aud tnrped it over TO the sou
of the ex-PresideDt, who now has it
again in Greeneville. e.-BSiJfof News.

A Doc THAT Dies PoTAToEs.-A
full-blooded Newfoundland dog is own
ed by H. Johnston, of this place. This
dog is unusually smart and industrious
One day last week he pulled up a pota
to vine with his teeth, and observing
potatoes hanging thereto, proceeded to
paw up the hill and carry the roots 10
the centre of the yard. When this was
done, he commenced Oh the muskmelon
patch, and did not desist until he pulled
all there was, some twelve in number,
and added them to the potato pile. He
then went to work on the cucumbcrs,
thinking to secure the crop ere the frost
came, but at this juncture he was caught
and tied up. In short time he was
again cavorting around, having gnawed
the rope with which he was tied in two

Anybody wishing tie secure the services
of this dog to dig their potatoes and

They have looked over our advertising COL

the impression that the exhibition begins at
Bangor, Tuesday, Sept. 10th. and will con-
tinue four days. What means the managers
of the society have taken to inform the public
that their exhibition takes place at that time
beyond few scattering newspaper notices, we
do not know. Beyond the announcement OF
special horse trot. we have seen nothing in

DEAR Substituting a long residence in China 1
have used your valuable Pain Killer both in my own
family and among the Chinese, and have found it a
most excellent medicine. III the summer of 1862 and

upon my own resources in cases of sickness. Tie
Chinese come to us in great numbers for medicine
and advice. Though without medical know ledge
ourselves the few simple remedies we can command
are much in advance even of their physclans that
we have almost daily applications. We allow them
to come, because it brings in contact with them
and opens cor of usefulness. In dirrhoea collie,

Those using Pain-Killer should strickly observe
the disease take a teaspoonful of Pain-Killer in
sugar and water, and then battle freely across the
stomach and bowels with the Pan-Kiler, clear.
Should the darrhoea and cramp continue, repeat the
dose every fifteen minutes. 1u this the dreadful
scourge may be checked and the patient relieved in
the course of few hours.
N B.-Be sure and get the genuine article; and it
is recommended by those who have used the Pain

has been announced that the President, Mr..
Prince has visited varions parts of the State
to awaken an interest in the exhibition and
has met with such encouragement as leads
the officers to believe that the fair in all Its
departments will be one of the most satisfac-

1t is very desirable that the manufacturers
in this part of the State contribute largely to
the exhibition. We understand that the
