Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by
a sense of weight in the back, loins
and lower part of the abdomen,
causing the patient TO suppose he
has some affection of the kidneys
or neighboring organs. AT times
symptoms of indigestion are pres
ent as hatulency, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. A moisture like
pe~rspiratiop, producing a very
disagreeable itching, particularly
at night after getting warm in bed,
is a very common attendant. In
ternal, External and Itching Piles
yield at once on the application Of
DIR. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts effect
ed, absorbing the tumors, allaying
the intense itching, and effecting a
permanent cure where all other
remedies have failed. Do not delay
until the drain on the system pro-
duces permanent disability. but

A NEW Book ON TRIGoNoME-
TRY.-A very excellent work on
trigonometry has recently been add
ed to that important study by j. b.
Price, who is a brother of our towns
man, r. M. Price, and professor of
mathematics in Union College N ew
York.
This text book is admirably adapt
ed to students preparing themselves
in grammar schools and preparatory
departments, for a more advanced
curse in the mathematics. Some
knowledge of analytical geometry is
necessary to properly understand
the algebraic symbols and express
sions from which logarithmic num-
bers are deduced. The objection so
often met that almost every work
or the elements of trigonometry is
too formidable to beginners, does not
apply to this treatise. The learner
is led on from one section to anoth-
er by easy gradations, and his inter
est is increased by occasional refer
ence to several very neat diagrams
in another part of the book.
Mr.. Price completed his studies at
the Edinburgh University, and
availed himself of the superior adj
vantages of that celebrated institu-
ton. In one of the sections he in
PRODUCES the rules and analogies Of
Baron Napier, the distinguished dis
coverer of logarithms, which have
saved so vast an amount of labor in
navigation, engineering and survey
ing. The Baron resided near the
suburbs of the city, and we fancy
that our author, who has apeculiar
talent for mathematical reasoning,
has often visited the spot that was
once the home of that rare and
brilliant genius.
On the whole, the Professor de-
serves great credit for putting with
in the reach of young men of ability
and application a valuable compend-
ium of the elements of a practical
and very useful branch of mathemat-
ical scieuee. X.

There are fresh reports of scandal

Though the President in his Mes

there are many people knowing from
experience something about the snb-
ject, who expect to see peace on the
frontier only when we have done
with thieving traders and agents,
and when Indians are made to take
care of themselves like other citizens.
The feeling of the people in the
Western Territories, who see Indian
assassins cherished at the agencies,
when they come in red-handed to
get supplies for a new raid on help
less farmers, and their wives and
children, can be appreciated when
the facts are understood. 1t is a
miserable white man in Arizona
who says:
| want to be an Iniun,
A warrior of the plains,
| want to WELD q tomahawk
And scoop out peoples brains.
Hong to build a fire
On a human beings breast,
And watch him writhe in agony
With gentle savage zest.
l want to be an Injun,
A Modoc or a Ute,
Pm tired of being a white man,
An unprotected brute.
Congress ought at least to see to
it that a miner or farmer in a West
ern Territory has the same rights to
''life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness" with an Indian.
