THE GAZETTE. Wednesday, November 3,1873. A Eeal Magazine for Children. “Sometimes, ’ says a sensible writer on the subject of juvenile publications, “I feel like rushing through the World with two placards—one held aloft in my right hand, Beware of Children’s Magazines! the other flourished in my left, Children’s Magazine Wanted!” It was left for Messrs. Scribner & Q< the popular publishers, to get up a mag azine for children that would satisfy the longings of the author we quote above. We have before us the first number of St. Nicholas, which is gotten up in unques tioned taste, copiously and attractively illustrated, and the reading matter admi rably a lapted to the minds and tastes of children. We find in its broad, well printed pages poems by Wm. Cullen Bry ant, Celia Thaxter, Lucy Larcomb, and others. Among the literary authors we find the names of some of the most tal ented writers of the country. It is not 'every author, however popular, that has the ability to suit the untutored mind of youth, but in this repect the conductress of St. Nicholas—Miss Mary MapesDodge —has, through the corps of contributors engaged, achieved a signal triumph. The variety and the character of the contents of the number before us exhibit sound judgment and discriminating taste. If the publishers keep up its standard cor respondingly the success of St. Nicholas is assured. Published monthly by Scrib ner & Cos., 664 Broadway, New York, at $3 per annum. Any one who examines the November Aldine will be surprised at the sumptu ousness of its illustrations, as well as the high literary merit of its poetry and prose. Besides the two full-page origi nal pictures, this number contains repro ductions of three celebrated steel en gravings, which alone would cost at the picture shops no less than thirty dollars. The Aldine pictures are every way as fine as the steel engravings. The first is a full-page view of Lake Molionk, in Ulster County, New York, by Kruseman Van Elter, of the National Academy.— Homer Martin has a full-page picture of “A White Mountain Brook.” “Home and its Treasures,” after R. Carrick. “A Chance-Meeting," and “The First Visit,” after Rudaux, are two charming pictures of the love-life of an artist. The; other illustrations are “The Robber of the Air,” a spirited conflict between birds, by Eeiker ; “English Mastiffs,” a group of three noble dogs, by Specht; “A Masterpiece,” a scene full of humor life ; a large view of the grand entrance to the Ratisbon Cathedral; a very faith ful and satisfactory portrait of the late Charles Temple Dix, the artist son of Governor John A. Dix, of New York, by H. Balling, and a sweet little scene of autumn, when “the ripened grain they took from the wain.” We can say with truth that no art magazine ever gave its readers a dozen such superb illustra tions in one number. The literary con tents of the Aldine for November are of superior quality and interest. The de partment of music, art, and literature, are filled with carefully written articles. Subscription price $5 including ' Chro mos “Village Belle” and “Crossing the Moor.” James Sutton & Cos., publishers, 58 Maiden Lane, N. Y. Wood’s Household Magazine for No vember, is already upon our table, and is as usual full of the choicest literature. The Household Magazine, is as its name implies indeed a household book, and should be in every household. Some of its leading articles for November, are “A Sermon on a Skimmer Mrs. Pomeroy’s Pin Money“ Codfish and Potatoes,” and many other articles of interest. A new feature of the magazine is the intro duction of pictures, and the illustration: “Past, Present and Future,” here given, is exceedingly pretty. Price of maga zine, $1 per year—with the chromo “Yos xaite,” one dollar and a half. We wil send the Gazette with the Household Magazine one year for $2.50 —with chro mo, $2,80, The Young Folks’ Rural for Novem ber, is replete with choice reading for the little people. Parents, get it for your children. We will send the Ga zette and this model young folk’s paper one year without the two chromos, for $2.75, A copy of the paper can be seen by calling at this office. — During the war, in 1863, Gen. Burn side impressed in Kentucky about eight thousand slaves to work on military roads, &c. A portion of the owners— all it is supposed who were loyal to the United States—were compensated at the time of impressment, and now the remainder, or a larger number of them, jure pressing their claims upon the Gov eanment. It is estimated that they in the aggregate amount to over two mil lion dollars. CURRENT NOTES. John Taylor Grant, after serving in Auburn five years as a forger, has been found to be innocent of the crime and discharged. Mr. A. P. Surrency is offering his place for sale. The purchaser will be entitled to all ghosts and spiiits on the premises—which of itself is a great in ducement. Chicago is utilizing her offal by turn ing it into fertilizers. From the garb age carts it is taken, and by the aid of a new invention, and after being subject to boiling and some other processes, it is turned out a valuable manure. Governor-elect William Allen, of Ohio, is the uncle of Allen G. Thurman, who will be re-elected to the United States as a result of the late Democratic victory in that State. As the first step toward a return to specie payment, the Treasury Depart ment proposes to pay out silver instead of greenbacks in all cases where silver is desired. The New York World says the result of the recent elections is to prove beyond a doubt that the Liberal Republican party is a failure, and that “the oppo sition party for the next four years will be the Democratic party, and no other party.” Somebody inquiring at the Spring field Postofiice for a letter for Mike Howe received the gruff answer that there was no letter there for anybody’s cow. It is a fixed fact that certain propen sities rim in families, like red hair. A man who was hanged in Ohio for min der six years ago, left six sons, and eve ry one of those children is now a medi cal practitioner. It’s of no use trying to suppress these strong hereditary in stincts. An Indiana woman threw a burglar down stairs and broke his neck, under the impression that it was her hus band. A correspondent of the St. Louis Globe writes from Washington that ef forts have been made to draw out An dy Johnson in reference to the execu tion of Mrs. Surratt, but he declines be ing interviewed until he can have an of ficial investigation. Once a careless man went to the cellar and stuck the candle in what he thought was a keg of black sand. He sat near it drinking wine until the candle burned low. Nearer and nearer it got to the black sand ; near and nearer, until the blaze reached the black sand, and as it was sand nothing happened. The greatest herdsman in the world, is the title claimed for Samuel W. Alleu, of Texas, who owns 225,000 cattle. He has one ranch eighty miles long and for ty wide, between Nevada and Colorado rivers, the largest on the continent, which pastures 120,000. Two others re spectively, 70,000 and 35,000. These cattle subsist on native grasses of a part of Texas. His herd require the atten tion of at least four hundred herders and branders and the use of 3,000 horses. He brands 60,000 calves a year to keep up the supply. The value of his stock, exclusive af the land, exceed five million and a half dollars. He is the chief meat purveyor for New Orleans and all of the neighboring counties on the Gulf coast. The remedy for curing croup in one minute is simply alum. Take a knife or grater and shave or grate off in small particles about a teaspoonful of alum ; mix it with about twice as much sugar, to make it j>alatable, and administer as quick as possible. Its effects will be truly magical, as almost instantaneous relief w T ill be afforded. Glycerine is said to be a preserver o leather. It is well known that leather articles kept in stables, soon become brittle in consequence of ammoniacal ex halations, which affect both harness hanging up in such localities and the shoes of those who frequent them. The usual applications of grease are not al ways sufficient to meet this difficulty; but it is by adding to them a small quan tity of glycerine, the leather will be kept c mtinually in a soft and pliable condi tion. A Portland man was caught fishing for trout on another man's land the oth er day; the owner remonstrated, but re tired in silence before the majestic an swer. “Who wants to catch any of your trout ? I’m only trying to drown this worm.” The New Ox-leans papers are engaged in an angry controversy as to whether the euchre of a lone hand counts four points for the lone hand’s opponent. A MOTHER POISONS TWO OF HER SONS BY MISTAKE. The Savannah Advertiser says a most distressing case of accidental poisoning occurred in Bulloch county a day or two ago, resulting in the death of two young men—one a man of family, and the other grown but not married. The particulars as furnished by a citizen of Bulloch county, are as follows: A lady, Mrs. Carter Hughes, finding her two sons, whose names our inform ant was not acquainted with, quite sick, administered to each of them what she supposed to be a dose of cream of tartar. At the time the dose was given the two sons were at their mother’s house, al though one of them, the married one, re sided about a mile off. Soon after tak ing the medicine the married man set out for home, but died before he reached it. The other son complained of feeling badly soon after taking the supposed dose of medicine, and continuing to grow worse, a physician was sent for, but be fore his arrival the young man was ei ther dead or past recovery, our inform ant does not know which. But he died in a very short time after taking the dose. Blessed is the man that taketh his county paper, when he payeth for the same. TO THE PUBLIC. The Pain Killer manufactured by Perry Da vis & Son has won for itself a reputation unsur passed in medicinal preparations The universalr ity of the demand for the Pain Killer is a novel, interesting ami surprising feature in the history of this medicine. The Pain Kilier is now regu larly sold in large and 'teadily increasing quanti ties, not only to general agents in every State and Territory of th a Union, and every province in British America, but to Buenos Ayres, Brazil, Uruguay, Peru, Chili, and other South American States, to the Sandwich Islands, to Cuba, and other West India Islands, to England and Conti nental Europe, to Mozambique, Ma agascar, Zanzibar and other African Inn.is; to Australia, and Calcutta, Rangoon, and other places in In dia. It lias also been sent to China,and we doubt it there is a foreign port or any inland city in Africa or Asia, which is frequented by Ameri can and European missionaries, travelers or tia ders. into which the i'aiu Killer has not been introduced. The extent of its usefulness is another g eat fea ture o this remarkable medicine. It is not only the best thing ever known, as everybody will comes.-.Cor Bruises, Ruts, Burns but for Dys entery or Cholera, or any sort of bowel complaint it is a r tnedy unsurpassed for efficiency, and rapidity of action, in the great cities of Brnish India and !he West India Islaius and other hot climates, it has become the standard medicine tor all such complaints, ns wel vs Dyspepsia, liver complaint and other kindred di orders For Coughs and Colds, < nker, Asthma, and Uheu malic difficulties, it has been proved by the most abundant and convincing trials and testimony, to be an invaluable medicine. The proprietors are in possession of letters from persons of the highest character and responsibility testifying in unequivocal terms to the cures effected and the satisfactory results produced, in an endless variety of cases by the use of this great medi cine. That the Pain Killer is deserving of all its proprietors claim for it is amply proved by the unparalleled popularity it has attained. It is a siue and effective remedy. It is sold in almost every country in the wor.d,nnd is becomingmore and more popular every year. Its healing prop erties have been fully tested all over the world, and it need only to be known to be prized. Sold by all druggists. oc.B-lm A New Gin AT BRUCE’S MILL.

TUTTs^I ■ f VECETABLE )1 i^^V£R_PjU3^j THE ONLk w m isi^DICINE That at the same time Purges, Purifies and Strengthens the System. Dr. Tutt’ Piiis are composed of many ingre dients. Prominent among them are sarsaparilla aud Wild Cherry, so united as to act together; the one through its admixture with other sub stance, purifying and purging, while the other is strengthening the system. Thus these Pills are at the same time a tonic and a cathartic, a desideratum long sought for by medical men, but never before discovered. In uther words they do (he work of two medicines and do i* much better than any two we know of, for they remove nothing trom the system hut impurities, so that while they purge they also strengthen and lienee cause no debility and are followed by no reaction Dr. Tutt’s Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood. They not only- purify without weak ening it, but they remove ail noxious particles from the chyle beioie it is converted into fluid, and thus maKes impure blood an utter impossi bility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness attending the ope ration of this most excellent, medicine, which never strains or tortures the digestive organs, b t causes them to work in a perfectly natural manner; hence persons taking them do not be come pale and emaciated, but on the contrary, while all impurities are being removed, tlie combined action of the .Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry puiifies and invigorates the body, and a robust state of health is the result of their united action.
