S/0 U/ T H lE iR N' C O N FE !D B El O ¥ . The Nagged *che#l« ef Keotland. Dr. Guthrie's desgriptiep of Ujo Edinberg ragged 8eho°ls and their fruits is exceedingly graphic, aa reported in the London Record : A SOKNK 1M A aArtOSO SCHOOL. “The children come at seven In the morn iog, and oome in rage ®od oot in decent clothes, for that wouldn't do, they would go to the pawn shop too soon. The first thing thoy do la te atrip—-not to be thraabed, but wnaked ; and we hare a long balk, as long aa this gallery, tod we make them march along it ns slow aa if they were attending a funeral, and the consequence is that they get, what many people are foola enough not to get, a de lightful bath. What cetaes after the both ?— Some of you are, 1 dare eey, Scotchmen, and will understand me. They get a grand break fast of porridge and milk. Then conies pray er, and a portion of the scripture Is read; then the work of the school begins, and oocupies four hours of the day ; the children learn to read, and to write, and to oipber; and they learn carpentering, and box making, aodahoe- inakiog. They eotno to us at balf»paa! seven in the morning, and at half-past seven at night we take off their school drose and give them back their rags, and they go home-—end the regs are not worth the pawning. We never keep a ohild from home uuless the house is an infamous den of iniquity or the parents cruel; we know that in the bosom of the child, worth less as the parents may be, Qod has planted a link of affection, and what we want to do is, to improve and strengthen that lie; and we have known two instances where these poor children have even carried salvation to their homes. Rut all this, ladies and gentlemen, requires expense ; we must feed and we must clothe them ; it entails the expense of teaebihg Hud housing a few of them ; and 1 say they deserve their fostering care—they deserve the most fostering protection and help of the gov* eminent. “ You will very naturally say, 4 You have told us what these ragged boys do in school; now tell us what they Jo out of school.’ ‘Well, they just go on as well out of school as they do in— they get on in a way we never expect ed.’ When they were getting up banquets to the soldiers of the Crimea, and to all the grand members of Parliament, we thought we’d give u banquet to our ragged bairns who bad fought as great a battle as any Crimean sol- dies, and far harder too. All of a sudden the thing was reeolvod on; all of a suddsn the thing was done. We have them, you know— these ragged school scholars that were—cut ting down the forests in America; we have them herding sheep in Australia; we have them in the navy; and—what d’ye think?— there woe an odd tbiog in this way—we had a competition umong boys in the navy, and the ragged school boys carried off .the highest priae. We have them in the army, too. Just the other day 1 had in my drawing room one of’ my ragged sohool scholars. 4 What was he doing there ?’ you ask. Well, he wae juet standing beside a very pretty girl, dressed like a duchess, with an enormous crinoline, and all that. There he was; on his breast he carried t hree medals. He had fought the bat tles of his country in tho Crimea; he hod gone tip the deadly march to Lucknow and rescued the women and children, and our ooldiero there—and 1 was proud of my ragged school boy when I saw him with his honors. 44 Well, ns I said, we resolved to give a ban quet; we furnished one of our best rooms, and Imd it brilliant with gas, and laurel, and ivy, and the coral-beaded belly, and the quantity of tea and toast! It isn’t to be told. We just sent away through Edinburg, and in a day we got one hundred and fifty, all doing for themselves. I was matter of tho ceremo nies. So I heard a great rush of feet—I was standing at the door, you know, to receive my company—and I could not believe my eyes when I saw the succession of good looking, respectable young men, and the successiou of comely, virtuous looking, bAppy young women. A girl come up to me smiling, end she said, 4 You will remember me, Dr. Oot brie; this Is my men,' and then a great, big, honest-look ing, burly fellow came up, and he laid, 4 You will remember me, Doctor ; this is my wife.’ And they filled the room. I never saw a more rc-pecfable company. And how they laughed and sung; and we prayed, too—we prayed and gave them good advice. I never spent a hap pier night—no, not in the greatest, noblest house 1 ever was in—than I spent when I en tertained my Ragged School children/' ATTENTION! : MISCELLANEOUS. J. W. HEWELL, WIIoLKsAL!

Hnadacur is the favorite sign by which nature makes known any deviation, whatever, from the natural state of the brain, and view ed in this light, it tray he looked on as a safe guard intended to give notice of ditease which might otherwise escape attention, till loo late to be remedied; and ita indications should never be neglected. Headaches may be classi fied under two names, viz : Symptomatic aud Idiopathic. Symptomatic Headache is exceed ingly common, aud is the precursor of a great variety of diseases, among which are Apoplexy, Gout. Rheumatism, and all febrile diseases.— In its nervous form it is sympathetic of dis ease of the stomach constituting kick headache, of hepatic disease constituting bilious headache, of worms, constipation and other disorders ot the bowels, ns well as renal aud uterine affec tions. Diteases of the heart are very frequent ly attended with Headaches; Auneiuia and Plethora are also affections which frequently occasion headache. Idiopathic Headache is also very common, beiug usually distinguished by the name of nervous headache, sometimes coming on suddenly in a state of apparently sound health, aud prostrating at once the meu tal and physical energies, aud in other in stances it comes on slowly, heralded by depns- sion of spirits or Mccrbity ol temper In most ii stances the pain is in the front of me head, over one or both eyes, and sometimes pr*>v«.k mg vomiting; under this class may also he named Neuralgia For the treatment of either class ol Headache the Cephalic Pills have been found a sure and safe remedy, relieving the most acute pains in a few m iuutes. und by its sub'le powi r eradic ating the diseases of which Headache is the unerring index. Bridget.— Missus wants v<>u to send her a hex of Cephalic Glue, no, a bottle of Prepared Pills—but I'm thinking that's not just it uai- ther; but perhaps ye’ll be alter knowing what it is. Ye see she’s nigh dead and gone with the Sick Headache, aud wants some more of that same as relaivxd her before. Druggist —You must mean Spalding's Ceph alic Pills. * Bridget.—Och ! sure now and you've sed it, here's the quarther and give me the Pills and dotit be all day about it ailher. Constipation or Costiveness. No ono of the “many ills flesh is heir to” is so prevalent, so little understood, aud bo much neglected as Costiveness. Often originating in carelessness, or sedentnry habits, it is regarded as a slight disorder of too little consequence to excite anxiety, while in roality it is the pre cursor and companion of many of the most fatal and dangerous diseases and. unless ear'y eradicated, it will bring the sufferer to an uii timely grave. Among the lighter evils of which costiveness is the usual attendant, are Head ache, Colic, Rheumatism, Foul Breath, Piles and others of like nature, while a long traiu ol frightful diseases, such as Malignant Fevers. Abcesses, Dysentery, Diarrhcea. Dyspepsia Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hysteria, Hy pochondriasis, Melancholy and Insanity, first indicate their presence in th^ system by this alarming symptom. Not unfrcquently the dis eases Darned originate in Constipation, but take on au independent existence, unless the cause is eradicated in an early stage. From all these considerations it follows that the disorder should receive immediate attention wheuever it occurs, and no person should neglect to get a b*>x of Cephalic Pills on the first appearanco of the complaint, aa their timely use will expel the insiduous approaches of disease and destroy this dangerous foe to human life. Grkat Discovert.—Among the most impor tant of all the great medical discoveries of this age may be considered the system of vaccina te n for protection fiotn Small Pox, the Cepha lic Pill tor relief of Headache, and the use of Quinine for the prevention of Fevers, either of which is a sure specific, whose benefits will be experienced by suffering humanity long af ter their discoverers ore forgotten.

They seldom fail in removing the Nausea and Headache to which females are so subject. They act gently upon the bowels,— removing Costiveness. For Literary Hen,Students, Delicate Females, aud all persons of sedentary habits, they are valuable as a Laxative, improving the appetite, giving tone and vigor to the digestive organs, and restoring the natural elasticity and strength of the whole system. The CEPHALIC PILLS are the result of long investigation and carefully conducted ex periments. having been in uae many years, daring which time they have prevented and relieved a vast amount of pain aud suffering from Headache, whether originating in the nervous system or from a deranged state of the stomach. ~ They are entirely vegetable in their compo sition, and may bo taken ifill times with per fect safety without making any change ef diet, and ihs absence any disagreeable taste renders it easy to administer them to children.
