The President having acknowledged the
compliment, Professor Frankland proposed
the toast of "The Learned Societies, y
coupled with the names of Mr.. Spottis-
woode and Professor Huxley. Readers of
Mr. Spottiswoode's severely mathematical
ADDRESS at the British Association at Bel
fast would, perhaps, be hardly prepared
Tor humorous speech from Scientist
OF so sober calling. Determining to give
the company taste of his rarer quality,
the President OF the British Association
on this occasion expressed his faith in the
principal of devolving all work upon secre-
taries, and accordingly called on Professor
Huxley. who happened to be one Of the
secretaries of the Royal Society, to reply
for the double toast The Joke was ap :
preclated as much by Professor Huxley as
by the company at large. but it did not
prevent him from proceeding to make
some serious and weighty remarks,
Alter Professor Huxley's speech there
was little to be done. save that Professcr
Odling proposed the health ofthe visitors.
There was, however, great deal of talk
ing over the table about the grand scien-
tic questions of the day of kind which

so far as lighting on the larger scale is
concerned, No wonder that with the dis
coveries of the new powers conferred by
electricity the success of the French chem
ist in demolishing those venerable Pigments,
the gases, and the determined efforts
which are being made by spectrosoopists to
| abolish the elements" to the limbo of ex-
ploding fiction, meeting of the chemical

DR.. BULLS REMEDIES.
DR.. JOHN BULLS
SMITHS tonic SYRUP
OR THE CURE OF
FEVER and AGUE
or CHlLLS and FEVER.

rhe proprietor of This celebrated medicine justly
claims for it superiority over all remedies ever
offered to the pubi1e for Sthe SAFE. CERTAIN,
SPEEDY, and PERMANENT cure of Ague and
Fever, or Chil1s and Fever, whether of short or
long standing. He refers to the entire Western
and Southern country to bear him testimony to the
truth of the assertion that In whatever will
1t fail to cure if The directions strictly followed
and carried out. In great many cases single
dose has been sufficient for q cure. and whole
families have been cured by single bottle, with q
perfect restoration of the general health. 1t is,
however prudent and in every case more certain to
cure, If its is continued in smaller doses foI
week or two after the disease has been checked
more especially in difficult and long-standing
cases. Usually this medicine viii not require any
aid to keep the bowels in good order. Should the
patient however require catharte medicine, after
having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, q
single dose of BULLS VEGETABLE FAMILY
PILLS will be sufficient.
The genuine SMITHS TONIC SYRUP must have
DIR. JOHN BULLS private stamp on each bottle.
DR. JOHN BULL only has the right to manufact.
ufe and sell the original JOHN j. SMITHS TONIC
SYRUP, Of Louisville, KY. Examine well the label
on each bottle. If my private stamp is not on each
bottle, do not purchase, or you wi be deceived.

LOST LOVE.

The heart of the simplest woman
Is a mystery unrevealed,
And the love that seems transparent
Is most hopelessly concealed.
We care not for love while We have it,
We know not of love till 'tis lost;
We scatter it's treasures broadhanded,
Nor reckon tho ultimate cost.
Lol hand comes forth from the shadows
a touch that I knew of old
That could Drown my gloomicst fanoies
With an aureole Of gold;
And l think how that hand so loving,
That eraved but to lie in mine,
OFT met gu impatient gesture,
Or found no responsive sign.
And from yonder painted canvas
catch tho old, wisful look,
So timidly, mutely jealous
Of the love that gave my book.
And only too we'll remember
How ohafed at the dumb reproaoh,
And swore that no thought of woman
Should on my studies enorouoh.
Was blind, or mad, or but heartless7
The face and the hand are gone,
The light of my life has vanished,
1 am utterly alone.
The brain that her glauccs kindled
Is blighted and dead and chilled,
And the gorgeous dreams of tho future
Can nevermore be fulfilled.
| loved as man who is selfish,
She loved in a woman's way;
And mans love compared with woman's
Is as darkness unto day.
AS a spcndthrift soatters bis birthright,
1 wasted the dover she gave,
And too late fiud my ambition
Has followed her into tho grave.
