A CRAZY WOMAN CURED BY Al I1aHT-
MING STROKE -[From the Waterbury
Conn american. Last week the house of
Jonas Buckingham, in Milford, was, struck
by lightning and was somewhat; damaged.
The most remarkable circumstances in con-
nection with it is that Mrs. Buckingham,
who has been deranged for. several years,
had her reason completely restored by the
shock, thus showing the benefits of electric-
ity as remedial agent in such cases.

THE FUNERAL OF HOPE.

1.-THE following beautiful lines were written b
he late Richard Lilies, Esq, OF Danville, Va,
entleman of genius, q fine scholar, and lawye
[ distinction. The lines speak of the sad fate
he author j
have been to the funeral of all hopes,
And cntombed them oneSy one;
Not a word was said,
Not a tear was shed,
When the mournful task was done.
Slowly and sadly turned me round.
And sought my silent room;
And there alone
BY the cold hearth-stone.
l wooed the midnight gloom.
And as the night winds deepening shaoe
Lowered above my brow,
Iwept DER days,
When manhood rays
Were brighter far than now.
The dying embers on the hearth
Gave out their Pickering light,
AS if to say
This is the way
Thy life shall close in night.
Iwept aloud in anguish sore
Der the blight OF prospects fair;
While demons laughed
And eager quaffed
Mytears like nectar rare.
Through hells red halls an echo ran.
An echo loud and long,
As in the bowl
plunged my soul,
In the might Of madness strong.
And there within that sparkling glass
knew the cause to lie;
This all men own
From zone to zone,
Yet millions drink and die.
A MAIDEN'S PSALM OF LIFE.
Tell me not in idle jingle
Marriage is an empty DREAM"
For the girl is dead that's single
Things are not what they seem.
Life is real, life is earnest,
Single blessedness n Ifb,
MAN thou art. to man returnest,"
Has been spoken Of the rib.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act that each tomorrow
Finds us nearer marriage day.
Life is long and youth is fleeting,
And our hearts, though light and gay,
Still like pleasant drums are beating
Wedding marches all the way.
In the worlds broad field OF battle,
In the bivouac of life,
Be not like dum-driven cattle
Be heroine-a aoife.
Trust no future, howeer pleasant,
Let the dead past bury it's dead;
Act, act to the living present,
Heart within and hope ahead.
Lives Of married folks remind US
We can live our lives as well,
And departing leave behind us
Such examples as shall tell"
Such examples, that another
Wasting time in idle sport,
A forlorn, unmarried brother
Seeing, shall take heart and court.
Let US then be up and doing,
With heart on triumph set;
Still contriving, still pursuing,
And each one a husband get.

have accomplished great good My father, living
in Winchester Va has written me the effect the
pad had upon such friends as came under his
positive knowledge, deriving very great benefit
that she owed her life to the virtues of the pad.
A gentleman who had been suffering for 20 years.
said he had been rendered unfit for business or
society by constipation, his life being one of
wretchedness during those years. He used the
pad, and almost from the day he put it on, he at
has been in excellent health since. He used but
one. These parties know well, and their testl-
m ony with my own experience, convinceS me
that the pad contains medical properties OF very
great value. Respectfully.
