EDITORIAL NOTICES are 20 common
that it is almost impossible for an edi-
tor to express his honest opinion of
the merits of any article without being
suspected of interested motives. This
fact, however, shall not deter us from
saying what we think of a new addition
to the Materia Medica to which our
attention has been recently directed.
We refer to Dir. J. WALKERS CA1lFoR-
MIA VINEGAR BITrERs, remedy which
is making it's way into more families
just now than all the other advertised
medicines put together. Its popularity,
rs far as we can judge, is not based on
empty pretention. There seems to be
no question about the potency of its
tonic and Alternative properties, while it
possesses tie great negative recon-
mendation of containing neither alco.
hol nor mineral poison. That it is q
specific for Indigestion, Biliousness,
Constipation, and many complaints of
nervous origin, we have reason to
know; and We are assured on good
authori y that as general invigorant,
regulating and purifying medicine, it
has no equal. It is stated that its
ingredients, obtained from the wilds
of California; are new to the medica!
world; and it's extraordinary effects
certainly warrant the conclusion that it
is compound of agents hitherto un-
known. Ii popularity is any criterion,
there can be no doubt of the efficiency
of the VINEGAR BrrrEHs, for the sale OF
the article is immense and continually
increasing Com.

An Atmospheric Phenomenon.

A Russian journal publishes some in
teresting details regarding an atmos.
pherical phenomenon, which was toll
lowed by an earthquake in the village
of Kola "a town situated at the extreme
northern point of Russia), and which
was ut first attributed to the effect of
an internal convulsion Of the earth.
According to our contemporary, it was
the fall of an enormous asteroid which
occasioned the earthquake. The
meteor probably fell in the en-.
virons OF Kola, although the pre-
else spot has not as yet been discov-
cred. Violent winds and snow storms
preceded the phenomeno A few
hours previous to it's occurrence there
had been several remarkable appear
ances Of the "Northern Lights :"
finally, about four o'clock, the asteroid
fell. 1trassed over the town to the
west, and, during its course, there
formed round the meteor dark cloud,
which suddenly extended itself far and
wide, and plunged the town in pro.

fearful thunder claps were heard, the
earth trembled, and began to heave in
violent manner. An earthquake &C.

from Kola. ut about seven O'Clock the

Joaquin was not long in acquiring
these facts, and the attack on Yreka
was indefinitely postponed by the
Modocs in consequence of his report.
The failure of Joaquin to carry out the

Saint Grimbus always sang out these
cheerful ryhmes in nasal, drawing
tone, which was anything but pleasant.
You may be sure, and then the in
struction went on.
Frank had never been in the habit
of paying attention, and when he first
came to Saint Grimbus he would peeD
up from his book, now here, now there.
now everywhere. Then lie would yawn
and cape, and scrape his feet, and snaD
his fingers, and twirl his handkerchief.
and whistle softly to himself, and do
all those il!-b1ed, naughty things, which
Impotence an en'aaIi are so apt to put
into the head of an idle boy. But Saint
Grimbus took him brlskly in hand, and
before he had sung out the fourth hour,
Frank had made the acquaintance of
the great rod over the desk, sat upon
the OUNCES stool, worn the FOOLS can.
and undergone most of those punish.
ments Saint Grimbus was won't to in.
aict upon idle, miscellaneous boys. On,
he had lovely times with Saint Grim
bus, assure you!
The schoolmastcr called out the
twelfth hour, and Frank frightened M
at the thought of dinner. But it was
little worth being glad for; roots
cooked in water were all they had. Oh,
how Frank longed to be back to his
mother, to his dear mother, and to tho
good home dinners he had SO little de-
served.
At one o'clock school began again.
There was no rest for Frank. He had
to study all day long, and this was
very hard for a little fellow who had
always been so idle. Sometimes, old
Saint Grimbus let him work in the gar.
den, and he liked this far better than
study, though not single flower grew
there, and he was not allowed to sing
or whistle, or even to speak while he
was ut work. The birch rods, too,
which were stuck up I'LL around, did
not add to his merriment.
