Carbolic Acid Not a Disinfectant.

The Southern cities that have suffered
from yellow fever, or been threatened
with it, this fall, have, of course, re-
sorted to profuse use of disinfectants.
Principal among those used has been
carbolic acid, which, according to
popular consent, is the most effective
of all the remedies against infection.
Prof. Cochran, of the Alabama Medical
College, condemns it as being condu-
Give to the spread of disease rather
than its suppression, and says, after
watching the effects of it's use in the
hospitals of Mobile and New Orleans :
Not only do the facts and examples adj
duced in proof fail to establish the
efficacy of carbolic acid as a prophylac-
tic against yellow fever, but without
any violence, and without any sophis-
tical Interpretation, they go very far
toward the establishment OF the sus-
picion that its influence has been the
very reverse of prophylactic that if it
has not contributed to the extension of
the disease, it has at least added to it's
maligAity and increased the mortality
to fearful ratio. The experiment has
been made, and it has failed,

PrOspect and Retrospect.

Again we have passed the portals Of
another year. The past, with all its
joys, its sorrows, its heartbreaks, its
scstacies, is ours only in memory. To
some of us the year that has gone by
has brought healing, to some it has
opened fresh wounds, to some it has
been the beginning of Joy and hope,
but we all stand on the treshold of the
new year alike, unknowing what may
be for us in its unfolding.
Regrets for the past are useless only
as they stimulate us to renewed dill
gence, in well-doing for the time to
come. The one thing we can do, the
only thing that will tell on our future.
is to act nobly in the living present, TO
see how many aching hearts we can
soothe, how many minds hungry for
knowledge we can feed, how many who
have grown weary in the march of life
we can encourage and aid, how many
oppressed and afflicted we may relieve,
and how much we can do to lift our
selves and those around us to the high
est life. If we have drank deeply of the
chalice of sorrow, we know how to COM
fort those who mourn, and in trying so
to do, find the richest balm for our own
griefs. If we have sat by the we'll
springs of Joy and quaffed the wine OF
life, we can gladly give of its over
howings to those who sit in darkness
and are robed in sackcloth. Not one
who reads these lines but can either by
his joys or his sorrows, by his failures
or his successes, aid some human heart
in its aspirations and struggles for the
right. And will you tell me what there
is in life but this, really worth living
for? The Joy, the sorrow that makes
us selfish has been sent in vain.
We have sat, as 'twere in confessional
during the past year, and as the whis
perings from the depths of many {
perplexed and anguished heart havo
fallen on our ear, our greatest joy hal
been to solve doubts, to smooth ava.
difficulties, to direct the inquiring, tt
give every aid in our power to thos,
who ask for it. We are indebted NOR,
than we can express to the many WHIT
have sent us assurances that our worl
is efficient and appreciated. No reward
no stimulus is SO great as appreciation
Many time in the past year we should
have tainted but for this.
To all our readers we extend per
sonal greeting, and we start together OIL
another year, hoping that our inter
course may be no less pleasant ant
profitable in the months that are t,
come than 1t has been in those that ar
past. Whatever may promote the hap
piness, the purity, the prosperity o
home has place in this column, we VIII
write and all who read are bound to
gether by one common tie-the love o
home.
Let us not this New Year waste GU
moral strength in useless regrets or val
resolutions, but "with charity for all
with frmness in the right, as God give
us to see the right, let us strive on t
finish the work we are in"

Said SO.

Here is a domestic drama frem Paris.
A young girl was about to be married
to a iourneyman carpenter, whose suit
was by no means agreeable to her. She
had refused and protested against the
match, but her father was memorable on
the subject, and insisted on the mar
riage, though the mother would willing
ly bave yielded. At length the BRIDE
elect appeared resigned to her fate,
and the father, pointing out the happy
result of his frmness to his wife, tri-
umphantly exclaimed, 81 told,you so. "
Next day, however, the poor girl, hav-
ing left letter at home explaining
the cause of hea action, jumped off the
Bridge of Austerlitz into the Seine. She
was. however, saved, and carried home
by two sailors. The father returned
home just as the dripping girl was
placed in safety beside the paternal
hearth, when the mother, with perhaps
more point than discretion, simply OBJ
served, 81 told YOU so. ;"

A Case of Mistaken Identity.

We have recently had a most remark
able case of identity, says the London
correspondent of the Chicago Journal.
Not long ago an old man died suddenly
in the streets. Some one recognized
him as being employed at the gas
works in the neighborhood, and some
eight or ten of his fellow-workmen
promptly identified him. Two of the
number were deputed to convey the
sad intelligence to his wife, who took
the tidings very coolly, and replied
that her husband was at that moment
up stairs in bed, and he shortly made
his appearance, much to their astonish-
ment. The body was then removed to
the work-house mortuary, where some
fourteen of the officials identified it as
that of a pauper who had been an in
mate of the work-house over a year,
and intelligence of his death was at
once sent to his daughters in Manches-
ter. One Of the sons-in-law came up
to town at once, and recognized his
father-in-law, and the daughters fol-
lowed, both swearing at the inquest
that the body was that of their father.
They gave him decent burial, paid the
undertaken and returned home, finding
there letter from their father, written
the day before, informing them he was
staying with some friends in Devon
shire, and in good health. I do not
think there is on record another case SO
remarkable. The funny part of it is
that the sons-in-law are now trying to
get their money back from the under
taker, who, however, declines to re.
fund

1--we a Week ON Sprouts.

The following account of how three
men lost their way in the north woods
of Michigan, lived week on Eastwood
sprouts, and, finally, found their way

company with Joshua Burt and Charles

with the exception of partridge, which
they had for breakfast Sunday. They
saw no other game and did not have q
mouthful of food, excepting Eastwood
sprouts, till Friday night, on the 18th
when they came out at Burt's home
stead on the Sturgeon river, above
Otsego lake. They were nearly fam

Paris Street Scenes.

"The street scenes in Paris" writes q
correspondent, care very amusing to a
foreigner. Men and women, harnessed
by leather straps into capacious hand
carts, transport heavy loads with ap-
parent ease. Jackasses, with ears of
fabulous length, are driven in small
herds from door to door, where they
are MIXED and the product served to
invalid customers. The prevalence of
wooden shoes worn by the humble
classes creates perfect din and clatter
upon the sidewalks and roadways, while
these pedal attachments bear goodly
proportion IN size and form to Swamp
scott fishing skiff. The uncovered
heads of men, women, and children of
the working classes, except, perhaps, a
linen cap upon the more pretentious
middle-aged women, is marked feature.
The wonderful harnesses upon the COM
mon horses, heavy beyond all reason,
with collars partly of wood, and of such
enormous size as to overshadow the
animal itself, and remarkable to one
who has an eye for the eternal fitness
of things. The marvellous burdens
borne by men and women upon their
heads are also constant source of as
constituent. There is the army OF
chifoniers who perambulate the street
cutters in the morning, picking up and
utilizing unconsidered trifes, and who
again make their appearance, armed
with lanterns, at night to ply their
humble calling. Add also the amusing
cries of itinevant tradesmen, preparing
to serve you in various domestic mat.
tiers, and all forms panorama of curl
Gus and busy life, extremely pic
