THE NEW PANAcEA.-Modern science
having demonstrated that alcohol is
" neither food nor physic," but, on the
contrary, a species of poison, the intro
duction of potent tonic which is entirely
free from it is certainly a subject for con
graduation. DIR. WALKERS VINEGAR
BITTERs is medicine which may be fairly
characterized as an unobjectionable spe
cific for many distressing and dangerous
diseases.
Temperance organizations, heretofore
in favor of permitting the sale of alcohol
for medical purposes, are of opinion that
VINEGAR BITTERs possesses all the eff
cacy as an invigorant that has ever been
even claimed for spirituous stimulants
and on this account, as we'll as because OF
the singular success which mas attended
its use in dyspepsia, liver complaint, dis
orders of the bowels, nervous diseases
general debility and all maladies growing
out of intemperance, they warmly recon.
mend it as restorative and Alternative OF
surprising excellence. 45

opened her mind to him. He was des-
tined to an additional shock. While he
was vehemently declaring the idea pre-
posterous, Margaret was listening at the
study door, and, losing all selfcontrol,
burst into the room, threw herself at her
idols feet, crying, "Dear Mr.. Bax-

&C HazIngv Severely Punished.

A CORRESPONDENT, writing to q New
York paper of hazing at the Naval Acad-
envy, Annapolis, says:
Zone day, about two months ago, when
a certain member of the third class was
Superintendent of one OF the floors, a well
developed plebeian came along the entry
whistling At the sight of his superior
officer he ceased, as he was in duty bound
The Superintendent, with an lnsolent de-
sire of displaying his authority over a
fellow larger than himself, ordered him
to do it again. The plebe, well know
ing that he would be spotted for com
pliance, remained silent; whereupon the
temporary official declared that if he
would not obey he should be made to do
SO. Nothing, however, could be done at
that moment, so the youngster was al
lowed to go his way. That night nine
teen third class men entered his room and
passed him round that is, they formed
ring into which the offender was dragged
and pushed violently from one to an
other, always falling against two or three
strong hands that pushed him back again
before he had time to take breath, and
thus he was buffeted from side to side by
nineteen pairs of muscular arms until
this great stalwart lad. nearly six feet tall,
tainted from exhaustion. The hazers
then departed, climbing out of the
windows and sliding down the post
of the veranda. The first class man
who was on duty that night caught
a glimpse of these forms descending in
suspicious manner, and, having
taken an observation of the window from
whence they came, went to the unlucky
plebe's room and found him insensible.
He was resuscitated and questioned; at
first he was unwilling to tell any tales, but
after thorough investigation the truth
was ascertained, and the matter was laid
before the Government, who at once
adopted most decisive measures. The
whole third class was quarantined from
the beginning of April to the end of the
wear; that is, for two months and hal
they have not moments recreation. All
their hours of pleasure are forfeited
While the other classes are playing foot
ball or taking the young ladies out to
row the boys of 76 are working away at
extra drills; when the others have half an
hours leisure to go to the library or run
into friends room they are prisoners in
their own apartments. The nineteen who
were engaged in the affair just men
toned, in addition to being quarantined,
are ordered ON the practice cruise this
summer; losing thereby the only leave of
absence that they have during the whole
four years of their academic course-the
one visit home to which so many toasts
have been drank and so many songs sung,
which is looked forward to and looked
back upon from the time they enter the
academy until the time they leave it,"

DON'T IAMPER WITH A CoID.-Perhaps in
the whole category of diseases to which hui
manity is susceptible, the cough is most neg
lected in its early stage A simple cough is
generally regarded as temporary affection
unpleasant, and nothing more; but to those
who have paid dearly for experience, 1t is the
signal for attack for the most fearful of all
diseases-Consumption. A cough will lead to
consumption-if not checked-so sure as the
rivulet leads to the river, yet it is an easy
enemy to thwart, if met by the proper remedy.
Auer's Lung Balsans is the great cough remedy
of the age, and it has earned its reputation by
merit alone. Sold by all good druggists.

How to Break Balky Horse.-A
balky horse succeeded in blockading
SAMSON street, Wednesday week, and had
to be taken out of the shafts of the wagon
to which he was harnessed before the
blockade could be raised. Few persons
engaged in handling horses know how to
successfully treat balky animal. When
he evinces his obstinacy, loss of temper,
imprecations and liberal beatings and
kickings are the customary applications,
all of which tend to increase rather than
diminish his obstinacy. The following
simple and humane treatment is pretty
generally employed by native Californians,
and is always accompanied with success !:
Take an ordinary packing rope, pass the
same under the horses belly; let man
take hold of ZACH end of the same and
draw it saw-fashion against the inside
of the fore-legs. No sooner will the horse
feel the saving of the rope, than he will
commence stepping forward. Follow him
up few steps, continue saving his fore
legs with the rope, and he will go ahead
with out further trouble, ~ hsladelphi
Gazette.

Means what He Says.

Though combinations strong as proofs of
Holy Writ" and as numerous as the sands on
the sea shore were produced to prove that
the proprietor of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy
is in earnest, and means what he says when
he offers $500 reward for any case of Catarrh
which he cannot cure, yet there would be
some skeptics and fogies who would continue
to shout "Humbugr' "HUMBUGr' lit can
not be, because DIR. Homespun says Catarrh
cannot be cured" Now, this DIR. Homespun
is the identical, good-natured old fellow who
honestly believes and persists in declaring that
this earth is not round or spherical but as flat
as " slap jack, and does notturn over, other
wise the water would all be spilled out of
Deacon Bascom's mill-pond. But astronomi-
cal science has positively demonstrated and
proven that DR.. Homespun is wrong in sup
posing the earth to be fat and stationary,
and medical science is daily proving the
fact that he is no less mistaken and
behind the times in regard to the durability of
Catarrh. In short, it has been positively
proven that this world nao0es, and that medi-
cal science is progressige-the opinion of Dr.
Homespun to the contrary notwithstanding.

There is reliable authority for
the following statement: The
Board of Indian Commissioners is
enormously called "Peace Commits
sioners." By law its true title is
"The Board of Indian Commission
ers." This board, as an organiza
ton, has not resigned, and the
statements to that effect are erro-
neous. The board consists of ten
members, and six Of the ten only
have resigned. The remaining four
have been called together for the
purpose of reorganizing the board.
The vacancies occasioned by these
designations will be filed by the
President as far as necessary with
the best men he can select who are
in harmony with the present Indian
policy.

that all good Roman Catholics shall
celebrate the day by public prayers
and thanksgivings and offerings

day is celebrated throughout the
world, those joining i'll the cele-
bration are invited to dispatch tele-
grams on the same day to the Holy
Father to inform him of the prayers
offered up in his behalf and for the
triumph of the church 1t forgets
the important exhortation that they
should be very careful to prepay
their dispatches.
