COOK’S MEDICATED VAPOR! AN INFALLIBLE Remedy for Diseased Eyes. r |MfIS wonderful preparation waa discovered by |_ Dr Cook when reduced almost to despair by the failure of all the remedies prescribed by the Physician* and Optician* of the age; and its miraculous effect*, in restoring hi* own vision, and the great success which ha* attended it* ap plication in a large number of case* —NEVER FAILING TO GIVE RELIEF and affect acure when persisted in—induce* him to lay it before tho public, in order that its merit* may bo tested, and all who are HiitTcring from diseased Eye* be enabled to obtain relief. The “MEDICATED VAPOR” is a Purely Scientific Compound! Very simple anil harmless in it. application, but a moat POWERFUL REMEDIAL AGENT; and after having boon oxtonaivoly u.od in tho troutuiont of Diseased Even, is confidently recomiuendod as tho MOST SPEEDY and RELIABLE REMEDY in cast-aid Acuto and Chrouic opllnilmiu, incipient Cataract, Amorosia, Staplylonia, Ac., over pre scribed. It is also an invaluiild. remedy for Nervous Headache, Neuralgia of the Eye and Face—dis eases which have heretofore resisted all medical skill. It has also been tested in several cases of Total Blindness with such wonderful success, he is in duced to believe that no case should lie pronounced Incurable ns long as one spark of vitulity remains in the eye. The .Medicated Vapor is a local remedy, and appeuls directly to the parts affected—promotes absorption, and by its powerful touic properties, infuses new life arid vigor luto tho nerves that have become impaired by disease, and enables the Eye to re act and regain its former healthful tone and action. These medieinal virtues, combined witli the neat and portable form in which it is put up, render it the most convenient and efficacious remedy for diseases of the Eyo over before offered to the public. DR. COOK has many certificates to prove the truth of tho above slatemeuts, hut does not deem it necessary to publish them, knowing the want of coulidenco in such tilings unless the public are acquainted with the parties anil all the circum stances. Me, therefore, offers his Medicated Vapor upon its own merits, feeling assured it will stand the most rigid teat and give the most complete satisfaction.

DeWitt, Esq., of the Richmond Index, who has actually visited more counties, and enjoys a more exten sive acquaintance with the farmers of Virginia than any man in the State, gives very favorable tidings concerning the wheat, corn und tobacco, in his issue of yesterday. “Our information,’ 1 he says, “from different portions of the State, to the close of the past week, warrants us in expressing tbe opinion that the wheat crop of Virginia will be more than the average one for several years past. In some localities tho farmers were in the midst of their harvest, and in fine spirits. Iu some portions cf the State tbe crop is later, and some days must yet elapse bo forc tbe husbandman can tell to what ex tent his labor is to be rewarded. We. have some apprehensions that the warm and wet weather of the two days past, may be productive of injury, but we hope for the best. “Tho season lias been more than usual ly favorable to tho planting of tobacco, and the planters have very generally availed themselves of the opportunity af forded them. Wo understand that in many places the ‘weed’ has already made a good start in tho hill. “The corn crop is said to be later, as a general thing, than was anticipated, from the forwardness of the season, but there is no indication unfavorable to a plentiful supply of ‘lndian Bread’ from the present year’s labor of thtf farmers of Virginia.” —Petersburg Express, ‘l'ld. Speculation* About the War. The Philadelphia Bulletin thinks the war is only at its beginning; for, says that paper, there is little reason to antici pate that Francis Joseph will listen to any peace propositions that the allies may submit to him on their entry into Milan. Ho lias to await the alliance of the German nationalities, all of whom he hopes to win over to make common cause with him against tiio aggressions of the French Emperor. The people of Prussia, Bavaria, Hanover, and all the minor Ger man States, are furious against Napoleon 111., and their governments all sympa thise strongly with Austria. The viola tion of Austrian territory by the inva sion of Lombardy will be sufficient rea son for the Emperor Francis Joseph’s calling on the other states of the Qer manic confederation to resist an outrage which, he will declare, they share in common with Austria. It is hard to see how powers can keep out of the contest, and when Prussia, Saxony, Hanover, and other states with which England is closely allied, engage in the war, it is hard to see how England can keep out of it. At present her Govern ment, obeying the will of her people, who see advantage only in neutrality, seems to be earnestly neutral. But there are dynastic and political reasons for entering into the war, and that on the Austrian side, which may ultimately eut weigh all present considerations in favor of neutrality. At all events, whether England goes in or not, tho war is only at its beginning. (NO. 274. From Punch. The Italian Quadrille, aa Danced be tween tho French and Austrian Armies. Our Own Correspondent informs us that tho following have been the move ments of the two armies for the last ten days. As they arc now perfect in their steps, it is supposed they will shortly be gin to take a few fresh ones : The Austrians advance. The French retire. The French advance. The Austrians retire. They change sides, and repeat the same figure several times. They fire down the middle. They join arms, cross bayonets, seize each other in tho best way they can, and for some considerable time. Both balancez to take breath. Opposite sides advance, meet half-WAy, salute one another, and then retire to their original places. Cavalier seul by Louis Napoleon. Cavalier seul by Victor Emmanuel.

Tho North British Review, discoursing on the doom of tho world, has the fol lowing remarks: “What this change is we dare not even conjecture; but we see in tho heavens themselves some traces of destructive ele ments and some indication of their pow er. The fragments of broken planets, the descent of meteoric stones |ipon onr globe, the whirling comments wielding their loose material at the solar surface, the eruption in our own satellite, the appear ance of new stars and the disappearance of others, are all foreshadows of that impending convulsion to which the world is and lomcd. Thus placed on a planet which is to bo burned up and under heavens which are to puss away; thus residing, as it were, on the cemeteries and dwelling upon the mausoleums of former worlds, let us learn the lesson of humilily and wisdom, if wo have not already been taught in the school of revelation.” A Meteoric Humbug Eipoied. Tho accounts which are being exten sively published in the papers relative to tho falling of an immense meteorio body near Oswego, N. Y., are entirely desti tute of foundation. Tho following is from the Buffalo Courier : It turns out that the account of the meteoric phenomenon which was reported by the Oswego Palladium to have ocourred near that city, and which we-copied, was a hoax, a “sell,’’a lubrication. The Pal ladium, of Saturday, confesses to have stultified itself, and endeavors to construe its falsehoods as a good joke. Mr. Wright, American Embassador at the Court of Berlin, has offered fifty thousand thalers for the library left by Alexander Von Humboldt. It is not probable that, under the pressure of the present times, he will meet with many, if any, competitors in Prussia or Ger many. The inheritor of these literary treasures is the valet of the deoeaeed philosopher, who, from the nature of his circumstances, cannot be expected, to wait any length of time for the realiza tion of tl>e bequest. Thus it is probable that the tools aDd implements, as it were, of the greatest mind-workman of modern Europe, will be removed to the United States. _ A Lodge of the Sons of Malta has been I organized in Albany, Ga.
