4 few nights ago, Il gentleman of
this city, as he was going home at Il
somewhat late hour. heard, in the dis

but which proved to be principally

that seemed TO como from = stomach

lip the barber could not have slipped
the back OF the razor blade more than
twice, stood leaning against the gate
post with his eyes fixed upon n cham
Der window in the second story Of the
house before him. In his hands he
held a guitar, upon which he picked
with the air of one who is not certain
he is on the right string. while from
his parted lips came the following
song:

sat down by them, and kindly asked
their names.
J My name is Lizzie, " said the eldest,
''and my sister is called Mary"
"Have your parents been dead
long ?"
"Our father has been dead two years,
but our mother only died last week. "
At the thought of their recent loss
both children began to weep.
Don't cry, children" said the farm
er, kindly. God win in one way or
another take care of you. But tell me
now, where do you come from 2"
''From LoUghrea, " replied the child.
From LOughrea ?' asked the man,
from Loughrea ? That is strange -
He began to suspect the truth and
asked hesitatingiy:
w hat was your fathers name ~
Martin Sullivan" " replied Lizzie
-Martin-Martin Sulliyan?"
he exclaimed, jumping up at the same
time, and casting a piercing look at the
children, thoroughly frightening them.
His face grew red, then tears came
into his eyes-at last he sObbed aloud
He took the youngest child in his arms,
pressed her TO his heart and kissed her
The child struggled and called to her
sister for help; she could not think
what the man meant. Then he put
down the little one, and did the same
to Lizzie, who took it more quietly, as
she had seen that the man did not
hurt her sister At last becoming
more composed, he dried his tears, and
said
"Do You know my name, children?"
:'No," replied Lizzie.
"How happened it, then, that you
have come to me ?'' he asked Has
any one sent you to me?"
Nobody has sent us, ," replied Liz
zie. I'VE were to go to KiIburn,
where q brother Of our father lives,
and they said he would gladly receive
us. But do not believe it, for our
mother always said that he is a hard
hearted man, who does not care for his
Your mother was quite right when
she said So" said the farmer But

God has had pity on your heiplessuess, |
and has made use of a fierce brute TO |
soften the heart Of your uncle, and |
therefore he viii never forsake vou-

The children looked at the man in
utter bewiiderment they did not un-
ieTstand what he said-his words and
lis behavior were alike strange to
hem. This he soon perceived. for he
added: you are going to KiIburn

The children's tears quickly changed
nto smiles, and the meal which Biddy

made them forget their grief Patrick

''What can't be cured must be endured, y says
the proverb; but indigestion can be cured, and
therefore it is the merest stupidity to endure it,
Dyspeptics have certainly right to continue
dyspeptics to the end of their days if they
choose, but as it is not supposed that any
tional being prefers physical torment to ease
and health the probability is that if all sufferers
from indigestion were convinced that an abSo-
lutte, infallible remedy for their complaint
existed, they would with one accord resort to it.
We most emphatically declare that such a
remedy does exist, and that its name is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. The record of its sue
cess extends over a period of more than twenty
years. and it is fearlessly alleged that during
the whole of that time it has never failed to
afford permanent relief in any disorder or de-
ra ngement of the stomach that was not organic
malignant and incurable. The testimonials
that go to establish this important fact can be
counted by the thousand. Stomach complaints
that had been aggravated by a total disregard
of all dietary rules, and intensified and rem
dered chronic by medicinal treatment of drastic
purgation, have in hundreds of instances been
cured within three months by the systematic
use of this celebrated stomachic and Alternative.
1t should be remembered that weakness of the
digestive organs involves many other ailments,
BiIiousness, headache, nervous debility ,spaSns,
palpitation of the heart, rush of blood to the
head, nausea, vertigo, and sleeplessneSs are
among its concomitants and results; and for
all these the great vegetable tonic is specific.
1t acts first upon the stomach, and through the
stomach, and through the stomach upon the
secretory and nervous systems and the bowels,
its general effect being always genial and benef-
cent.

On Monday last we went to his resi-
last Friday afternoon he was digging
coal in Orange Furnace bank He put
in blast, and attempted to touch it off
with "squib," which was little roll of
paper, fred at the outer end, and stuck
in against the powder. The fire, as he
Thought, had gone out. He went back
to look, and saw little fire at the end of
the paper. He reached down to pinch it
out with his thumb and finger, when it
exploded The lamp on his forehead
was mashed fiat, terrible cash was cut
above his left eye, his face was blackened
with powder and fine coal, and his right
arm was broken below the elbow. We
found him quite comfortable, and full of
fun as ever. 1t will be remembered that
he paid us for the STANDARD last fall
until Greeley should be elected Presi-
dent He says we came pretty near get
ting the best of the bargain as the time
of his subscription came very near expir-
ing last Friday We told him that his
face would always be badly disfgured
with the coal and powder embedded in
the skin. He said that was fact, but
his wife had agreed not to leave him on
account of his bad looks. Where this
joke comes in is, that Mrs. Rice has been
totally blind for a number of years. We
remarked that there was some consola-
tion in. every affiicton in this life.

In the report of proceedings in the
United States Senate for last Saturday,
we notice the following:
Mr.. COLE, of Cal (R.), from the Com
mittee on Appropriations, reported the
Postoffice appropriation bill, with amend
ments, among which are the following:
Prohibiting the transmission of any
free matter whatever, not excepting the
newspaper exchanges, &c.
That is the true theory Now let us
see how many city papers who were so
frantic about the cost of the franking
privilege, will join us in sustaining the
report of Mr. Cole.
