Going down the Chesapeake bay on an excursion, when the wind was fresh and the white caps were tumultuous, Judge Hall, of North Carolina, became terribly seasick and spent most of the time leaning over the bulwarks My dear Hall, said Chief Justice Waite, who was one of the party, and was as comfortable as an old sea-dog, s'can I do anything for you?

ToULoN wHRN TNE CHOLERA STUCK IT, If, in sanitary sense, says letter from Toalon, the condition of Marseilles was Gightful, that of Toulon strack me as sim- ply MurdcGous. Although Toulon has a background of mountains, the city itself is sitaatsd on a fiat plain, four feet only above the level of tideless sea. The con- sequences arising from imperfect drainage, with a natural want of slope, are that the sewers have only fall of eighteen inches, so, with 8 sluggish movement, the filth of ths town drops into an almost stagnant sea. What is worse is that at the points where these drains flow they are only GOV cred with plank and the filth, disgusting to the nose, imprssses itself on the eyes. YeA net only then smell but you see the garbage of Toulon. Just fancy people liv- vinG in this city of quite 80,000 inhabit- ants without the faintest glimmer of com men sense ia regard to public hygiene
 Toulsn must be inhabited by people who utterly ignore every precaution which healtk requires. Their habits, both in their houses and in the public streets, are indessribably filthy. The plain English of it is about this: That it is impossible for people who live on fruit, who drink all kinds of poor fluids, who sleep in dirt and Ae@ tkdSes, WAo SlCatIC dl tlI PoiluoSu " the soweraSs of the town itself and render ed deubly poisonous by the excreta left by the training ships, to escape cholera. The marvel is that this disease did not find its birth here years before. Toulon has al ways been 8 breeding place of disease. Small Pox when it broke out in Toulon was always of a malignant type and more difficult to stamp out than elsewhere. The natural death rate is invariably high and likely to be increased at any time by ab normal disease.

One Thousand Acres of Land and
 ssRight Smart of Bears.''
 On the deck of big Mississippi steamboat stood an aged Southern planter. Indicating by sweep of his the waters the boat passing over, he said to passenger from the north: "When was twelve years old killed my first bear a new plantation my father then cutting out of forest that grew directly the waters of this bend. That was Q mighty good plantation, and there right smart of bears there, too. But that one thousand acres of and went into the Mississippi years ago.'
 It is putting strain upon the figure to say that great forests of youthful hope, womanly beauty and manly strength swept in the way every year into the great turbid torrent of disease and death Yet it should not be That it is so is disgrace well as loss. Peope largely too careless too stupid to defend their own interess-the most prec- ious of which is health. That gone, all is gone. Dis is simple but to recklessness ignorance the simplest things might as well be complex as prop osition in Comic Sections. AS the huge Western riv- ers which so of often flood the cities along their shores arise in few mountain springs so all our a- mens can be traced to impure blood and small group of disordered organs.
 The most effective and inclusive remedy for dis ease is PARKER'S TONIC. It goes to the sources of pain and weakness. In response to ifs acton the liver, kidneys, stomach and heart begin their work afresh, and disease is driven out. The tonic is not however intoxicant, but cures desire for strong drink. Have you dyspepsia, rheumatism, troubles which have refused to yield to other agents? Here is your help.

(Harper's Young People.) VACATION.

 "Be wary, be wary" says Mother Trout To her young ones down in the brook, 'sFor know by the chirre of the grasshopper, And the way things gen'rally look, Iris time for vacation, and murderous boys, And Make-believe flies in the water to poise." ssAh me ah me !" cries a mournful gull To her mates by the sounding sea, 'Now 'tis growing so hot Tn the shadiest spot, Dark visions are narrowing me Of maids that wear wings on their bonnets bold, And terrible youths Mith Q gun in their hold. :" sBe shy, oh, be shy" clucks the speckled hen To her brood in the farm-yard warm, ''For this, sweet things, is the time that brings Summer boarders back to the farm, And plump spring chick is gobbled like dew By this terribly wicked, rapacious crew. stAlas and alas !'' eroaks wretched frog, With hoarse, shrill voice, in the pool, ''By my dreams do fear that the time is near When city children are let from school, And there is some terrible tragedy, Some dark fate, in store for my people and me. "Oh, sisters mire," sighs cat-tail fair,
 With her delicate foot in the bog, "Now shortly, ah me we shall seized be For pattern to work on a rug, Or to pin on the wall of some gloomy room My sad soul tells me vacation has come."

How CASE WAS LosT--"I lost my first case to a miserable little pettifogging lawyer named Johnny Wood," said Gen. Sharpe at Chicago, during the convention to group of Arthur men, who had lost in terest and had gathered in his room for the comfort of being together. "I was Q graduate of Harvard law school, and had a good deal of conceit, besides 8 perfectly good case. When my senior warned me that would have to meet Johnny Wood l laughed at him. The suit was before a justice of the peace. We made out our case, and Woods client, the plaintiff, made out none worth speaking of at all. When Johnny Wood arose to speak he rehearsed the evidence impartially, and then, taking up book, read the law-such law as l had never heard of, but which fitted his case to nicety. When he got through l said: A..
 MT. Wood, will you allow me to see that statute, please?'
 Certainly, sir, he replied, handing me the book closed.
 'Ah, thank you; but what page is it on?'
 What page?' he cried, indignant. Don't expect me to coach you, young man. Find your own law, - you. I found mine.'
 Of course, couldn't find it, but Johnny had the laugh and the court with him, and I lost my case, according to law which that scoundrel, Wood, had made up out of his own head just as he spun it out" .t.+-~

 DEAR SIR: My son, lad of fifteen, editor of the o-Ahead" " amateur journal of this city, has been at different times most severely and apparently hone lessly, afflicted with Salt Rheum. When avery small child his body was almost entirely covered with this ever, after the eethng period, and he was not ser- ously troubled with it again until about one year apo when the Salt Rheum first appeared on his hands be- tween his fingers then ou his limbs, then his face rible. The rash rosembled ivy poisoning and we at first fancied it might be something not bad as his old troubles, but the physicians pronounced it Salt Re un, and made every effort without avail to cure it..

Death of u Noted Brigund.

The celebrated brigand zutfa of
Castle Guclfos, Bologna, died recently
in the State Prison of Ancona, where
he had been confined the last twenty
eight years. He was sentenced for
life in 1856 for many crimes. He was
one of the most daring companions of
Passatore, the terror of the Romagna
forty years ago. Among the exploits
by which Zuffa and his companions
made themselves notorious was the
following: One night they entered the
city of Forlimpopo!i while a perform
ance was going on at the theater.
They went behind the scenes, and lev
cling their carbiBes at the audience,
announced that every door was closed
and guarded by a brigand, and that
the audience had better give up at
once all their valuables. One of the
gang went around with a bag collect
ing jewels and money, and the band
then leisurely retired.
