TOTAL ABSTINENCE SAVING VINE TILL II
RIPESS.

There is a curious story about some native
wines which arc extensively advertised nova
days, and have only recently been put upon
the market. DR.. Undcrhill. the wclI-known
Erapc-grower Of Croton Point, died in 1871.
Some OF his heirs entertained temperance
views of such extreme kind. that they were
unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on
hand to be sold or any more to be made
The grapes have sometimes been sent to
market, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vines. 1t is only now that the other heirs
have succeeded in arranging for settlement
of the estate and the sale Of tho wines on
hand. Among these is wine Of tho vintage
Of 1864. described rs "Swcct Union Port,''
but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more
than any other European wnc and being
wholly unlike any other wine of American
growth. Its purity. age and mclowness are
fanccrs have a special interest in it as the
oldest native wine now accessible in any con-
siderable quantity. The whole stock is in the
hands Of the wcll-known wholesale grocery
house Of the Thurbers.--N. Y, Tribune.

A DUEL W1Tu SwoRDs.-Yesterday
(Monday) morning two young
Creole gcntlcmon of this city, whose
names arc classod among tho oldest
of our native population, met at
tho Baso Ball Park, near ST. Charles
avenue, to settle an affair Of honor.
The weapons used woro "colicho-
mardes," and almost immediately
aftor tho crossing Of the swords the
combat had to bo brought to an
ond, both parties being wounded in
the right breast, ncar tho armpit !;
slightly, it was thought at first.
Inst evening, however, DIR. Turpin,
who attended tho challenged party
at his house, still declined to OK
press an opinion rs to tho condition
Of his patient, whose right lung,
it appears, was affected by tho blade
Of his antagonist With ono cx..
ception, all the parties to tho duel
were arrested on the ground. Tho
affair originated in a blow given by
tho challenged party for an alleged
insult which had been offered him
tho day before, while both were out
on fishing eXcursion.-Ncw Dr.

Tic reputation it has attained, In
consequence Of the marvellous cures it
has produced during the last half CEN
tury, is q sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize
the happicSt results that can be desired.
In almost every section OF country
there arc persons, publicly known, who
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases Of the lungs,
by it's use. All who have tried it nc
knowledge it's superiority; and where
its virtues are known, 10 one hcsitateS
as to what medicine to employ to re-
licve the distress and suffering peculiar
to pulmonary affections. CHERRY PFC
ToRAL always affords instant relief, and
performs rapid cures Of the mildcr va
rietics Of bronchial disorder, rs well as
the more formidable diseases Of tho
lungs.
As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which bcsct
the Throat and Chest Of Childhood, it
is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudcS arc rescued and restored to
health.
This medicine gains friends at
every trial, as the cures it is constantly
producing are too remarkable to be
forgotten. No family should be with
out 1t, and those who have once used
1t never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the
country prescribe it, and Clcrgymen
often recommend it from their knoWl-

IrsELF.--That popular humorous
lecturer De Cordova, says Harpcrs
Weekly, was passenger by tho
Scythia on hor last trip from Liver~
pool to Now York, and, as Il matter
Of course, bore his part in all tho
impromptu social entertainments
that enlivcned the tc(lium Of tho
voyage. One day happy Thought
struck ono of the passengers, that
De Cordova should be invited to
delivor ono Of his inimitablc lectures
in the ships saloon, and that the
proceeds should be divided equally
between n Liverpool and New
York charity; but the captain TO-
fused the uso of tho saloon for this
purpose unless nll the proceeds
woro givon to Liverpool. The
EnglisE passengers were quite as
indignant us the Americans at this
dog-in~the~mangcr attitude, and
tried in vain to induce tho captain
to change his mind. Finding him
obstinate, tho passengers invited
Do Cordova to give them II lecture
on deck, and ono fino afternoon
wore entertained with witty and
humorous familiar talo about "AIrs.
Grundy." All wore delighted; and
when the hat WAS passed around Il
worry liberal contribution WAS made,
tho whole Of which, by the express
desire of the English pas sscnyc, S,
who gave all tho moro freely to
show their disapprobation of the
captains obstinacy, was handed
over to the Childrcn's Aid Society
Of this city. But for the illi6crality
of the captain, half Of tho sum
would have gono to somo Liverpool

of diseases, and one that will, az all times aud

ut is hardly correct to speak of a
standard of value. The constitution
does not speak of it. It contemplates
standard for that which has gravity
or extension; but value is an ideal
thing. The coinage acts fix it's unit
as a dollar; but the gold or silver
things we call dollar is. in no sense,
a standard of dollar, it is represen-
tative Of it. There might never
have been a piece Of money of the
denomination Of a dollar.

Jewels OF the Crown Of scotland.

At Edinburg, Scotland, some years since,
the Jewels of the Crown were locked In a box,
that box In another, and SO on, until they
were supposed to be burglar-proof. They were
then locked up In the vault OF the castle, there
10 remain for one hundred years, the keys
being placed In a mortar and fired into the sea.
Scarce fifty years passed by, and the modern
iocI-picker opens the vault and boxes without
trouble. So the science OF medicine, when
studied with the aid OF chemistry and the mi
croscope, becomes plain and simple, and dis
eases that were regarded incurable a genera
ton ago, now readily yield to remedies en-
ployed by the modern and progressive physi-
Clan. A decade of years since, and women
were taught to believe that their peculiar dis
eases and weaknesses were incurable; but now
hundreds and thousands Of once bed-ridden
women In the United States will testify to the
fact that DR.. Pierce's Favoritc Prescription
has effected their perfect and permanent cure.
