Slope gradual, aud the night wind. cold.

Aud locks are gray

And ewes Of saddc.t blue behold

And lips Of fudrd coral say
There comes q time when We grow old.
There comes a time when jnyons hearts,
Which leaped ~ leaps the laughing main,
Are dead to all save memory,
A. prisoner IN his dungeon chain;
Aud dawn of day

The moon hath into darkness rolled,

There comes time when WE grow old.
There comes n time when manhood's prime
IL shroutrd in the mist Of years,
Aud beauty, fading like d dream,
Hath passed away ia silent tears;
And then how dark!
But oh, the spark
That kipdlss youth 10 hura Of gold
Still burns with clear and steady ray,
And fond affections lingering say:
There COMES time when We grow old.
There comes n time when laughing spring
Aud golden snufnrr cease {" hc,
And We put uu the autumn robe
To tread the last dcchNity;
But DER the slope
With rosy hope.

DR.. Blackburn, the renowned yell
low fever hero, says you cannot i'll
ter all the impurities out of water
He says you must boil it. If you
use water that mas been boiled, you
cannot take the cholera. l have
been trying for thirty years TO get
this matter before Congress. l
don't want it to cost a cent. All l
ask is to have committee appoint
ed to sit and receive the testimony
of prominent physicians to show a
case where a person who has used
boiled water has taken the cholera.
If | am wrong nobody will suffer
but me, and if am right millions
of lives can be saved But / can't
get Congress to do anything. 1t is
fact that if an appropriation of
$4,000 were to be asked for, in the
K entucky Legislature, to prevent
the spread of a contagious disease
that would prove fatal to three
quarters of the population, not a
cent could be obtained, but if some
body will show how to save the life
ora hog or horse $4,000 could be
gotten easily. l suppose it is so in
Ohio, as well. / worked for years
and years to get national quaran
tine law pressed, and it is now about
to become law, but if they pass it
as they propose it will be nullity.
They intend to place its execution
the hands of army and naval Off
GERS. They will not do. Good
physicians should have the thing in
charge, and they will know when
and how to act"
