THE GREAT MEDICAL REFoRMAr1oN.-
The Satanic Theory that preparations
which infame the brain are, in any
sense of the word, remedies, has been
0ve,'thr0,0,s, land can never be rc-cstab-
lished. The wonderful effects which
have attended the use of Dr.. WA1KER's
VINEGAR BlTTERs as an antidote to the
causes of disease, and cure for every
comfortable ailment, have demonstrated
the utter fallacy of the doctrine that al
cohol is tonic as we'll as q stinaulant.
The New and Incompatible Vegetable
Remedy which has superseded the
death-draught of rum bitters, is as free
from every Intoxicating element as the
dew of Heaven, yet see how it is invig-
Grating the nervous, relieving the bill
ious, curing the dyspeptic, purifying
the blood Of the scrofu1ous, strength
ening the debilitated, arresting prema-
ture decay, and replacing dependency
and weakness with cheerfulness and
activity. Truly a grand Medical Revo-
luton is in prOgress.-Com.

IT is often remarked by strangers
visiting our State that We show 4 larger pro-
portion Of good horses than my other State in
the Union. This, We tell them, is owing to two
principal reasons in the first place, We breed
from the very best stock and in the second
place, our people use She,ilass's Cavalry Con-
0ition Po,oders, which in our judgment is Of
incalculablc Administration.

How to Convert Trees into Lightning
Rods.

N. Colladon, of Geneva, Switzerland,
proposes to convert poplars and other
tall trees into safeguards against light
ming, by a method so simple that we
commend o trial of it by those who
dread the approach of the summer
thunderstorm. Into the lower part
of the trunk of the tree he inserts
a metal rod, the projecting end
of which is connected to the earth by
means of a chain. It is believed that
by this means the descending current
will be conducted directly to the earth,
instead of leaping off to any adjacent
object.

A Terrible Scene.

hmm onao damage vas done in Shcr

'reshet. The ST. Mary's Rivor was
swollen by the rain and thaw. A cou
pie OF miles above Sherbrooke there is
q natural dam Of rocks across the river,
beyond which for several miles it is call
ed Still water. The ics on tho river
broke up in consequence Of the ireshet,
and flooded the whole ofthe valley. On
the lott bank Of the river where Sher
brooke is situated the scene was fear :
full one. The food brought down thou
sand of tons of ice and great number of
logs. Whole trees were uprooted from
the banks in the course of the torrent.
The solid ice below the village remain
cd firm, and the flats upon which Shcr-
brooke stands, became boiling sea.
Boats and canoes wore in demand. Evo.
ry house was flooded. Tho cattle were
driven out of town by parsons on horse
dack. The women, children, and sgod
people were takon away in boats. Many
families abandoned their houses alto.
gether, while Others took refuge in the
upper stories. Two bridges in tho viii
lago, anda large bridge over the St.
Mary's River, are gone. A new weasel
nearly ready for launching was destroy.
ed, and much timber carried away. The
day after the food the mountains of ice
and tho logs, trees and othcr debris be.
eamo frozen solid, so that the village is
now imbedded ina frozen sea. The
ruin is indeucribable; it extends mile
