| BURNING OILs IN PENNSYLVANIA. A new
law has just gone into effect in Pennsylvania,
regulating the sale of burning oils. 1t forbids
the sale of any product of petroleum to be
| used in lamps as a burning OIL which is of a
| lower fre.test than ] 10 deg. Fahrenheit. vi
olations of the law are punishable by fine of
not less than $3.50, or imprisonment not less
than one year, or both, at the discretion OF
the court. Any one sustaining danger to per-
son or property by reason of the use of oil
which is not of the legal standard, can col
lect damages of the dealer who sold the oil.
Boston Globe, 9th inst.
The necessity for such law is apparent
from the almost daily record of deaths by ex-
blossoms of kerosene lamps. Here are two
cases taken from the dailies a day or two
since.
BY the breaking OF a kerosene lamp in the
store of Henry Woodward, Esq, in Winthrop
ON Wednesday evening, l4th, fire was COM
municated to his stock of dry goods. causing
damage to the amount of $3.50. Fully COW
cred by Insurance.
In Brooklyn Monday night, 10Th, Mary E.
Hall was burned to death by the explosion of
kerosene lamp.
The sale of unexpected oils subjects the
seller to heavy fine. See extract from the
laws, under the advertisement of Portland

There seems to be good ground for the be-
lief that the corn crop Of this year will be
very much less productive than it has been
for several years past, for the reason, as the
Chicago Tribune puts it, "that cold, raw, and
wet weather has prevailed in all parts of the
great corn-growing belt of the country" AS
if in anticipation of such result, farmers
who each had twenty acres in 1872, have only
half that amount this year.

Consumption can be Cured. %
SCHENCK's PULMONIC SYRUP,

Are the only medicines that will Pulmonary

Sometimes medicines that will stop cough will
often occasion the death of the patient. 1t locks up
rhage follows and, in fact, cogging the action Of
the very organs that caused the cough.
Liver complaint and dyspepsia arethe causes of
two-thirds OF the cases of consumption. Many are
now complaining with dull pain in the side, the
bowels sometimes costive and sometimes too loose
tongue coated, pain in the shoulder blade, feeling
sometimes very restless, and at other times drOw-
sy; the food that's taken lies heavily on the stom-
ach, accompanied with acidity and belching OF
wind. These symptoms usually originate from
disordered condition of the stomach or torpid
liver. Persons affected, if they take one or two
heavy colds, and if the cough in these cases be
suddenly stopped, the lungs, liver and stomach
clog, and remain torpid and inactive and before
the patient is aware of his situation, the lungs are
a mass of sores, and liberated, and death is the in.
evitable result.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is an expectorant,
calculated to check cough suddenly.
Schencks Seaweed Tonic dissolves the food,
mixes with the gastric juice ofthe stomach digests
easily, nourishes the system, and creates healthy
circulation of the blood. When the bowels are
costve, skin sallow and the patient is of bilious
habit, Schencks Mandrake Pills are required.

Another Case of Bronchitis Cured.

BRIpGEwATAR, n. s., March I'd, 1869.
Mr.. JAMES !. FELLOWS.
DEAR SIR; While in Windsor on a visit in
December last, l fell in with an old friend
Capt. II. Coffill-and finding him looking so
hearty and robust. was led to inquire what had
produced the great change, for when last saw
him two years previous, he was mere skele
yton. He informed me that your very valua-
'ble Syrup of Hypophosphites had effected a
perfect cure. He persuaded me to try the
Syrup for Bronchitis, from which l had suf-
fered much during several years. l pur-
chased one dozen of this Syrup, and have
used only three bottles, and my health is now
better than it has been for years. Not re-
quring the balance of the dozen, sold it to
different parties, and now there is general
demand for it from all parts.
Respectfully yours, W. J. NELSON.

Here is curious story of the old slavery
times which we pick up from a Western
Carolina newspaper. In the gold mining
regions of Burke County lived an indus
trious, well-to-do free colored woman nam
ed Nancy Boyce. She was engaged TO mar
ny Jack, slave, and in order to have
everything pleasant, she put her hand in
her pocket and bought him of his master.
But she was shrewd enough TO take n bill
of sale OF him, fortunately, as II happened,
for Jack turned out to be utterly worthless,
and perfect sot. But little need was
there for Nancy to 20 TO the Courts for re-
lief by divorce. She knew better way
than that. She owned her man, and she
simply sold him to a slave dealer, who car
ried him of to the far Southwest, so that
the sharp Nancy was never bothered by
him again. Husbands have been badly
sold, before though not in this particular
way.-1'i6une.

IMPORTANT. VIEWS From
FR.I.yCR

The contest between the nionarchists and
republicans in the French Assembly cul-
III mated Saturday night, in the triumph of
he former, and the consequent resignation
OF President Theirs and the election of
Marshal MacMahon as his successor. The
immediate occasion of the change is thus
stated:
The monarchists alarmed at the growth
of republicansm, and Theirs's manifest
in the government, took the occasion of his
recent reconstruction of the cabinet, to vote
Il reprimand of his course. By the close
vote of 800 to 344 this was carried. Theirs's
consequent resignation was promptly ac-
copied, and MacMahon installed in his
place. The crisis thus terminated in sig
nal victory for the monarchsts. But I'M
less This victory is used with the utmost
moderation, it is likely to prove the signal
for still more complete and violent coun-
ter-revolution on the part of the republican
masses of the French people. The Left, as
the republican wing of the Legislature is
usually designated, as yet show a praise
worthy moderation, but their only course
henceforth will be TO press an appeal 10 the
people. Such an appeal would seal the fate
of the monarchst faction, and they will
resist it TO the last. 1t will be strange If
the conflict of interests does not in tho end
result in civil war.
MacMahon is man sixty We years old, a
soldier grown gray in the service of France,
and covered with wounds received from
her enemies. He is the first general of
France in rank and reputation, and the on
ly one of them all whose glory did not suf-
fer loss in the last war. He commanded
the troops who suppressed the Commune,
and is therefore hated of the artisan class,
but all the more beloved by the conserva-
tives. He is a simple man who under
stands not political complications, but will
obey the Assembly through thick and thin.
A stronger champion that body could not
find. MacMahon will have no "policy,"
he will not interfere in the government.
The Assembly has got rid of president
and obtained lieutenant.
