THE manner in which the Justices of
the Supreme Court of the United States
decide cases is said by an intelligent OBJ
server at Washington to be something like
this: :" Imagine quite a family of men,
generally pOrtly, and beyond middle life,
seated in an Old-fashioned room in the old
part of the Capitol, with the Chief Justice
at the end of the table. He is the mOdera-
tor and suggester at the ceremony. He
says, Gentlemen, in the case of Temp
kins against the Hudson Canal Company,
what shall we do? shall we deny the mo-
ton or grant it?' Then, in good-hu-
mOred way, the pOrtlV Justice Clifford says
something sententiOusly. With twinkle
in his eye the athletic Miller puts in an
amendment. The Reverend Greer, who
thinks God ought to be in the Constitu-
ton, interposes with a stately sentence.
He is picked up in no time by the rather
merry Bradley, of New Jersey; he illumi-
mates the whole topic, as if he did it by
accident. Justice Hunt, a dainty little
man, listens to the others, and puts in an
This warns up the mer
curial Field, who sails right in; and just
as things are beginning to look lively the
Chief Justice says, Gentlemen, hardly
think we will come to any conclusion
where there is so much controversy; so
suppose we put this matter over until our
next Saturday consultation, when we may
have arrived at some opinion There is
probably not a body connected with the
where there is so much hui
manity, good-fellowship, and sense as in
the Supreme Court"

THE ship Arracan sailed from Shield,
England, on the 1lth of September last,
outward bound for Bombay. On the 18th
of February her cargo ignited, and on the
10Th she was on fire from stem TO stern,
and the crew were compelled to abandon
her. They left in three boats, the crew of
two of them being picked up within a few
days after leaving the wreck. The third
boat, under command of the mate, and
having on board provisions for only sew
enteen days, drifted about in the Indian
Ooean for thirty-three days. The crew of
this boat consisted of four men and boy.
After their provisions were used, the men
cast lots TO see which one should be killed
to furnish food for the party. The lot fell
upon the boy, but his life was saved by the
Intervention and firmness of the mate.
At last, after undergoing the most terrible
tortures, they were picked up by the City
OF Manchester and taken to Calcutta. The
surgeon of the steamer which rescued the
men says they were in wretched condi-
ton. They could not stand on their feet.
their eyes were starting from their sock
cts, and they were perfect skeletons. AL
together they presented the most painful
sight he ever beheld. The most cautious
treatment had to be employed in bringing
about their recovery.

" It's rather close to fight in a room,"
said Jones. Then turning to the fellow,
whose eyes were still wandering in the d.
rection of Carriers coat-tails, he handed
him twenty-dOllar gold piece, saying:
" Take this; | hire you for my open-air
fighter. You are never to fight for me ex-
cept in open air, and where there is good
chance for you to run"
THANK you, Mr.. JONES'" said the fell
low, pocketing the money and making for
the door. THANK you, and if | ever see
a show to put in lick for you I'll not for
get to do it."
" Provided you have a chance to rum"
sneered Cartier.
Turning as he was passing out of the
door, the fellow said:
Its all very nice, Mr.. Jones, but that
is either Big Jim Cartier or the devil, and
you can't ring him in on mel"

A DERANGED stomach and impure blood
force human beings into melancholy state /;
they do not enjoy life and are not in a tit con-
dition to do business successfully. One of
the best remedies eXtant is VEGETINE,
which has acquired reputation as wide as
the country itself, and is extensively known
all over the globe. This remedy has been ex-
tensively advertised, but its cures have sold
it at more rapid rate than the newspapers
The latter serve to bring it to pulic notice, but
like all medicines or inventions it has been
forced to stand the test of trial and time, and
its rapid sale shows how strong a hold it has
gained

IT is often remarked by strangers visiting
our State that we show larger proportion of

place, our people use Sheriddn's CdUGlTy

are of incalculable advantage.

Success Based Upon Merit.

1t is a subject of general remark, among
both wholesale and retail druggists, that no
medicine introduced to the American public
has ever gained such a popularity and met
with so large a sale in all parts of the land, in
the same length of time, as DR.. Pierce's Gold
en- Medical Discovery. This cannot depend
upon its having been more largely advertised
than any other medicine, as such is not the
case. The correct explanation, we think, is
found in the fact that this medicine produces
the most wonderful and perfect cures of very
bad cases of bronchial, throat and lung dis
esses, is undoubtedly the most perfect and
efficient remedy for all kinds of coughs that
has ever been introduced to the public, and
at the same time possesses the greatest Of
bloOd-purifying and strengthening properties
that medical science has been able to produce,
thus rendering il a sovereign remedy not only
in the cure of Consumption, Bronchitis,
Hoarseness and Coughs, but also for all dis
eases of the liver and blood, as ScrOfulOus dis
eases, blOtches, rough skin, pimples, black
specks and discOlOrations. 1t has therefore
a wide range of application and usefulness,
and it not only gives the most perfect salts
faction to all who use it, but far exceeds the
expectations of the most sanguine, thus elicit
ing the loudest praise, and making permanent
H0iRg advertising mediums of all who use it.
For these reasons it is that there is not per-
haps druggist in all the vast domain of this
Continent, who tries to please his customers
and supply their wants, that does not keep
and sell large quantities of this most valuable
medicine.

The GREAT MEDICAL REFORMATION
The Sdtonic Theory that preparations
which inflame the brain are, in any sense
of the word, remedies, has been oUerthrOl0n,
and can nerer be re-estabLished. The won
derful effects which have attended the use
of DIR. WALKERS VINEGAR BTTTERs as an
antidOte to the causes of disease and a cure
for every comfortable ailment, have dem
onstrated the utter fallacy of the doctrine
that alcohol is a tonic as well as stiDluLaHt.
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 invigOrating the
nervous, relieving the bilious, curing the
dyspeptic, purifying the blood of the
scrofulOus, strengthening the debilitated,
premature decay, and replacing
and weakness with cheerful
ness and activity. Truly grand Medical
Revolution is in progress.

BosToN Brown BREAD.-Take equal

Scald the meal with boiling hot sweet
SKINNED milk, and when lukewarm add
the rye flour. Stir IN enough lukewarm
milk to form dough a little softer than

bake it well in a moderate oven.
To polish brass rub the metal with rot

piece of cotton flannel, and polish with
soft leather. A solution of OXalic acid
rubbed over furnished brass soon removes
the tarnish, rendering the metal bright.
The acid must be washed off with water
and the brass rubbed with whiting and soft
leather. A mixture of muriatic acid and
alum dissolved in water imparts golden
color to brass articles that are stepped in it
