Beauties Of Brazil.

Those who sigh for lodge in Brazil
should read what u correspondent
writes Of the beauties of that country:
"Thc mosquito makes his home in
these wilds. a tiny fly, called poluom
from being as small and multitudinous
us atoms of dust. passes through the
meshes of the finest net, then penc-
tratcs the hair and hearI and sticks its
ycnomous proboscis into the skin The
louthsomc tick named cdupe2o, when
disturbed on the cones and twigs hy the
foot of the passcr-by, swarms up the
trouser legs and fastcns upon the flesh.
1t has 50 firm u bite that if it is
pluckcd OIL, its head is left buried deep
in the flesh, diilusing virulent poison
Of its own. The hairy caterpillar, by
day or night equally beautiful, lumin-
ously phosphorescent in the dark, and
with Il covering of brilliant hues like
Acknowledgement moss, the ends Of
which branch off into pointed antlers,
inilicts with every point Of these II very
painful sting. There is u lively red aunt
whose tormcntlng powers are not to be
dcspised. But one of the worst enc
mics Of mankind, rs we'll as Of cattle
and hogs, is u big spotted fly which
comes along silently and pricks the
body Of its victims. 1t sucks no blood
and instills no venom; its minute
weapon, instantly withdrawn, leaves no
soreness or irritation at the time. The
man thus slightly punctured does not
rub or scratch himself He little knows
that he has received the deposit Of an
egg which will soon become wriegling
maggot, half an inch long after one
weeks growth, but capable Of growing
to an inch and quarter in length and
half IN inch iii thickness. With fine
rings Of black spikes or bristlcs around
its body. it has horrid trick of revolv-
ing on its own axis, tearing the flesh
anew by each Of its hourly revolutions.
Mules, oxen and wild deer suffer like
wise from the hidcous visitation. Wasps
and hornets there are, Of course.
There is u small, stinglesS bee, which
crowds SO thick upon exposed parts of
the body SO Us to leave no room for u
mosquito 10 alight As the bee only
tickles, instead Of biting, singing or
laying IN egg, it is welcome; but it is
impossible to eat without dcvourng
half u dozen or more. :

4 poor fellow in Saginaw Mich, after
living with his wife in the happiest
manner for thirteen years, discovered
accidently tho other day that She had
one or two other husbands living from
whom she had never been divorced.
She singular part of the ease is that the
woman had been devoted and loving
wife, and the discovery Of the state Of
affairs was doubly distressing on that
account Naturally, separation was
tho only course open to him. The
local paper says. The lady consented
to the separation and then Mr.. Eth
eridge presented her with check for
81, 800, i gold watch and chain, il hand
some diamond ring, Ill the household
furniture, paid the freight on the same
to San Franeico, and purchased II ticket
for her to the same city, and wished
her God.speed on her journey The
gentleman then disposed ofallhis prop
erty iii this city, and, after investing a
part Of it safely, put the balaec IN his
pocket and went out into the world a
wandercr without home and resting
place.

CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders Of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable as hardly to be believed, We're
they not proven beyond dispute. As remedy,
it is adequate, on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves I'M
numbered lives, and an amount of suffering not
to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Alice
tions, which are easily met at first but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg
lected. Tender lungs need this defence; and it
is unwise to be without it. As safeguard TO
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood CHERRY
PICTORIAL is invauable for by its timely use
multitudes are rescued from premature graves
and saved to the love and affection centred on
them. 1t acts speedily and surely against ordi-
nary colds, securing sound and Notwithstanding
sleep. No one will suffer troublesome Infiu-
enZa and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured
Originally the product Of long, laborious, and
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently relied
upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.
