z. S. The author being prostrated beyond
hopes of recovery by this effort, this will pos
itively be his last contribution to the poetic
literature of the age:
Once upon time some generations since,
When this mighty moral city wa $ no bigger than
aquince;
To span the old Sandusky with bridge that
wouldn't shake.
The Indian brought his hatchet; The Yankee
fetched his knife;
The Paddy his shihalah, and the Dutchman
brought his wife;
They didn't want an architect to bridge COM
mon river,
The builders went to building each with his favor
ite tool
The Yankee did the guessing, while the Indian
played the fool,
The Paddy busy smoking did little else but shfrk,
The Dutehman drank his lager while his wife did
all the work
The thing at last was finished, and the Dutcbman
said he knew, 1io-J 7lgt Ja3i1
That bridge would still bestanding in 1872;
The Yankee peeled a shaving and didn't know
3 5 but guessed, .t- - .a
That the people then kicking would think the
thing pest
IErERNIssIoN OF THIRTY TEARS.
Poor Lo has long since entered the hunting
grounds on high,
The Yankee does his guessing in regions of tn,
sky.
The faithful old shillalah marks the Paddys quiet
nest, Aa
While the Dutcbman's work is ended and hi.
wife has gone to rest.
The bridge alone is standing arosa the .elf-sam,

DR.. A. TRASK'S
MAGNETIC OINTMENT
FOR THE CURE OF
1NFLAMMAgoRY DISEASES.


DR.. Trask was engaged for twenty years in
course Of experiments upon the medical prop
critics and power Of vegetables, separate and
combined. At the age Of seventy years he sue
ceeded in presenting to the world, as the result
OF his experiments, q combination Of Vegetable
extracts, the power Of which in removing dis
eases is unequaled In the annals of Medicine.
His discovery consists in a cOmbina-
ton OF these powerful Vegetable Extracts with
Electricity or Magnetism In the form Of an Oint-
ment.
Certain, it is, that the remarkable and
unprecedented success which has attended its
application in the cure of diseases, stamps 1t at
once as the greatest discovery of the age, and
calls for trial and close investigation Of its
properties
It never fails, while there remains suf-
acient life TO restore q natural and healthy nc
ton 70 the capillary vessels Of the body, and
equalize the circulation Of the blood. By this
means controlling power is gained over the
most malignant forms of disease, which cannot
be obtained from any other remedy.
Such Is the power of this combina
tiOIi, that 1t penetates to every portion Of
the human frame; every bone and muscle, vein,
nerve and ligament ID searched out and made
sensible OF its purifying and healing influence,
Hence it cOpes as readily with internal IS ex-
ternai disease
Numerous Instances are on record
where this remedy has restored health to pa
tients SO near the grave that the most powerful
internal remedies failed to produce any effect.
Such has frequently been the case in mfamma-
ton of the Bowels.
No patient ever need die with this
disease where the Magnetic Ointment can be OBJ
tanned.
For InHamnlafOry RheurnatIsm
this Ointment is the most complete remedy ever
prepared. Bor Diphtheria or Putrid Sore Throat
1t is qnrfvaled.
In ninety-nine cases out of a
hundred, it viii afford entire relief to the worst
cases Of Nervous Headache in thirty minutes.
For Nervous Diseases this medicine is
Of immense value

Lameness, liberated Sore Throat, Bronchitis,

nerAut gum choppers win preserve
their fair fame to themselves and
their children by cheerful compi-
ance with the law touching their cas-
es. which prohibits and dentist from
prscticing without a diploma or GER
tifcate, after the first day of Janu-
ary 1873. Our legislature, in max
ing this law, conferred upon the
Dental profession a power which it
deserved and demanded, and also
gave to the public means of pro-
lection that was sadly needed. Den
tistry has become a profession of
high rank, and one which contri-
butes largely to the health and com
fort of life. Unlike other profes-
sions. it has been destitute of legal
power to protect itself, and has been
at the mercy of imposters and swim
diers. Any one could suspend his
shingle, and with a crowbar and
sledge hammer, rausack and devas-

Happily for the ease and comfort of
the unfortunate pOssessors of dis

tistry is made conditional, the terms

Crisis ofDanger.

About half-past five o'clock yesterday after
noon fire broke out in the six-story brick
building Nos. 81, SO and S5 Centre street,
which it totally destroyed. The fire originat-
ed IN the third floor, occupied by Dun, Bar
low & Co, job and newspaper printers, and
was caused 1t is believed by can of benzine,
which in some mysterious manner became ig-
nited- So rapidly did the flames spread that
the employees ofthe establishment were unable
to save even their own property, and several
persons are almost known to have lost their
lives, The fifth and sixth floors are occupied
by Anderson, Archer d. Co., as a bookbindery
On these floors there were at work some sixty
girls, who were ignorant of the existence of
the fire until they were almost surrounded by
the flames Two young men from one of the
lower floors, who were aware of the perilcus
position Of the girls, ventured at the risk of
their own lives to rush up the stairs and give
the alarm, Almost simultaneously with their
alarm the fire appeared through the cracks of
the fourth story floor, and in an instant every
thing and everybody was thrown into the
greatest excitement. Women and girls rush
ed through the building screaming fearfullv,
while others became Unconscious and swooned
away. The first impulse of the terror-stricken
woman was to rush down the stairway, but
scarcely had they descended dozen steps be-
fore they were forced back by volumes of
thick smoke, Those who were down on the
lower steps attempted 10 turn back, but be-
hind them was an army of employees, who, in
their great haste to escape, threw themselves
bodily down the stairs, and thus compelled
those beneath them to rush

or remain in their perilous position to be
roasted alive. Some who Were more daring
risked the only chance placed before them,
and, covering their faces with their aprons.
rushed through the smoky passage-way and
finally reached the stairway almost suffocatsd.

1t would be difficult task to enumerate all
the various kinds of goods which are to be
found at Leppelmans. The famous Domestic
Sewing Machine is his faYorite. It would be
the hight of folly for us to attempt to estimate
the amount of business he is doing in this
branch of trade. He has a large number Of
men employed to sell them, and his sewing
machine room is a constant scene of activity
and business. His stock of jewelry is very
large, and comprises an extensive assortment
of gold and silver ware, watches, clocks, &C.
These are selected with great care, and sold
much lower than they could be bought for in
the larger cities. In his music room may be
seen musical instruments of every kind, from
the immortal jewsharp to the finest pianoes
made. If a gun, pistol, fishing tackle or any
thing of the sort is wanting, that is Just the
place to find it, and while you are there step
in and look at the Domestic, Just to see how
it works.

could be seen Kissing through the creviees Of
the doors and walls. The girls who had gone
thus lar in their eagerness to escape from the
flames, threw themselves down the stairway,
alighting all in a heap at the bottom. At this
place men were stationed, who, as soon as the
afrightened girls landed on the second floor,
picked them almost bodily in their arms and
rushed down the stairway to the street Many
of them had tainted away. The flames had
by this time enveloped the third, fourth, and
a part of the fifth floor. The stairway, which
was believed to be the only means of escape,
was q sheet OF fire, and the remaining twenty
two girls, who were known to be inside of the
building, were given up for lost. While some
OF the girls escaped in the manner already
mentioned, the remaining portion, who were
compelled to turn back, rushed to the fifth
and sixth floors and attempted to reach the
roof. This was found to be impossible, and
many OF them gave up in despair and sat down
upon their stools awaiting their terrible doom;
others rushed from window to window franti-
cally crying for help, while the rest passed the
short time left them in PRAYER. Every mo-
ment added to their danger, and inch by inch

A NOVEL HOTEL EXPERIMENT AT New.
oRT.-The cliff cottage hotel, started,
two years since, an experiment, has
proved great success. The colony
comprises a small hotel, eight prettily
furnished cottages, and handsome
grounds the location on the cliff of the
sea. You hire cottage for the season :
you name your hours for your meals,
and open your dining-room door to find
them on the table. Your cottage has
no kitchen; you never hear of a cook /;
but your food appears mysteriousy four
times a day, smoking hot. With each
cottage you get servant, who attends to
your wants. A chamber-maid comes in
from the big house, and, while you are at
breakfast, put your chambers to rights !;
and the grounds are we'll kept without
even an order being given. The COM
pany provides to each cottage every
necessity and luxury, except the single
item of plate, and sends the foo cooked
from the hotel. You live in your own
house without a housekeeper's cares, and
with all the delights of a housekeeper !;
and you have all the freedom of hotel
life with none of the discomforts. Such
q luxurious manner of living could not
fail to be popular with Americans, and,
though I hear this method is far from
inexpensive,it has proved extremely
popular and fashionable. side
