It'tli. It can be planted on laud from which wheat
lias been harvested, or from which potatoes have
been dug, fully ripening before frost.
llth. The spikes shoot out within four feet of the

T HE above cut represents DU. .IONEd’ uew metli
od of curing dis-ases of the Lungs aucVDiroat,
Asthma, Bronchitis. Trachetis, Layringetis, Consump
tion, Enlarged Tonsils, Pleuritis, breaking up Conges
tionofthe Lungs and Liver, and effecting cures of
the Respiratory Organs with certainly and ease, that
cannot be reached by any other nietliod.
His remedies are reduced to warm spray—are speci
fic in their nature; they reach the whole diseased sur
face at every breath; they are carried directly into the
blood without having to go through the process of di
gestion; only certain prepared remedies can be used
by this systom.
A few so called family doctors are experimenting
with the Inhaler and their Caustics, Iodines and other
relics of barbarism peculiar to that practice - the re
sult is, they are destroying the reputation of the only
system that will cure Throat Diseases. Only certain
mild remedies can be taken iuto the Lungs and they
are not kept by druggists nor known to the general
profession.

SYMPTOMS of CHRONIC CATARRH.
BY. DR. J. A. JONES.
let. Of the head—heavy, dull, aching over the eyee.
sometimes extending back through different part, of
the head, and causing a weight or heat, of coldness oa
top of the head, snapping and cracking noise in the
ears, dullness of hearing—otten the secretion collects in
middle ear, closing up the eustachian tubes, produc
ing deafness—the lining membrane being the same
from the head through the whole alimentary canal,
and down into the lungs, it has but to extend itself to
affect the whole system. It becomes virulent in the
nose sometimes, causing a tenderness, or producing
offensive breath, discharges of yellowish matter and
scabs the shape of tbo nostrils, or if the partition bone
is only affected, then the I.schars are Hat, and when
they discharge, which is generally alter exertion, the
nose is open, the patient breathes more easily and the
head feels more clear—the heaviness over the eyes
and across the forehead is seldom entirely gone, but it
is aggravated by every fresh cold. The offensive smell
for wiiich the unfortunate chews many kinds of drugs
to neutralize or destroy, and thereby be enabled to go
into society without being a positive nuisance, which
persons of both sexes are, on account ot this barbarous
and offensive disease called OZOENA, which has now
assumed a Tertiary form of cancer, destroying every
thing but the outside skin, letting the nose sink iu, ex
tending to the throat, destroying the voice, etc., when
the disease is called Laryngitis, Trachetis, Bronchitis,
etc.

female disease*,) and general Consumption, emacia
tion, complete prostration, etc: with all ot which, and
many other eymtoms, called by twenty different
names, the sufferer may exist fora while. Dr. Jones
oures this dangerous and insidious disease by the s-Etieu
System—using specific medicines known only to him
self, applied to the diseased surface, in the form of
spray, lie relieves the sufferer iu a few minutes, and
supplies the patient with all that is required to finish
the cure at home.
OZOHN A,
An Offensive Disease in the Nose.
Which eats away flie partition bone, destroys the
sense of smell, produces green or yellowish scabs, the
shape of the nostrils—sometimes flat, often tainted
with blood and matter; causes weight urd dull aching
over the eyes, headache, loss of memory, giddiness,
etc. This disease is often caused by neglected colds,
by suppressed skin diseases, Scrofula, Scarlet Fever,
Psoiiasis, Syphilis, and other contagious diseases, and
is itself contagious. It often extends to the thioat,
iroduc’ng Hoarseness, Bronchitis and CONSUMP
TION. It is a Tertiary form of Cancer, DESTROY
ING the NOSE and THROAT when too long neglect
ed. DR. JONES is the ONLY Physician iu the
United States who thoroughly understands curing this
dangerous and offensive disease. He destroys the
offensive smell in FIVE MINUTES, and relieves the
sufftrei ia every way AT ONCE, and CURES the
disease in a short time. F^or this disease Dr. Jones
has special instruments with which to apply his spe
cific remedies to the spot. Nasal Dorches and catarrh
remedies generally drive this disease .o the lungs mere
quickly.

SYMPTOMS OF CATARRH.
Prevalont in America and Europe.
1 Of tui Hjcad.—Tingling, itching, with a sense
of dryness and obsti action of the nose, sneezing run
ning of a watery secretion; as it progresses, the secre
tion becomes mucous, entire obstruction of one or
both nostrils, hawking, ticklmg of the throat, cough
ing, etc. 2 Catarrh of the Chest prevails as an epi
demic sometimes, aud is called influenza: with or with
out fever, and many of the symptoms just ineutieued:
there is oppression across the breast, rawness aud
burning ot the throat, first day, afterward a copious
secretion of mucous, which may become opaque or
frothy, difficulty of breathing, pain in the head, and
dull feelings, a sense of soreness, extending under the
breast bone to the stomach pit, the fits of coughing
may occasion vomiting, oppression, prostration; as the
disease progresses, the sputa becomes ropy and viscid.
This disease is called the Grippe by some. Catarrhal
Inflammation ot the eyes arises from colds, causes ob
struction of the ear passages, watery eyes, fistula,
lachryinalis, dimness of vision, etc.
SUPPRESSED CATARRH may produce inflam
mation of the lungs, brain or eyes, or give rise to
rheumatism, nervous disorders, weeping, moaning,
tremors and convulsions, drowsiness, chilliness, start
ing, twitching, palpatation of the heart, etc. When the
frontal sinuses above the eyes, posterior and anterior
nasai passages, become clogged up, aud even the un-
trurn or cavity of the cheek bone becomes fillet) ■ or
partly, it often produces a pressure ou the nerves that
supply these parts, and pains like the most excrutia
ting neuralgia is the result. The disease follows the
mucous membrane through the eustachian tubes to all
parts of the same membrane ot the ear, causing hyper
trophy of the drum, iuterteres with the functions of the
? -lands of W harton, which secrete the wax; a dryness
ollowt, hardness of hearing, roaring, buzz ng, singing,
whistling, cracking, the ringing of the bells, aud simi
lar noises, which vary, and which are simple effects,
and when the cause is removed, the effects cease: this
hardness of hearing increases with each cold.
Dr. Jenes has made old standing diseases of every
name a speciality all his life. He is well prepared,
and performs all the more difficult and delicale opera
tions in surgery, especially ot the eye, ear and nose.
He is a graduate of the best medical colleges iu Europe
and Ameiica, aud his diplomas proving the same are
suspeuded in his office.
KP*Letters containing oue dollar will be answered.
Dr. Jones' fees vary from $46 to $2UU0. His terms
are cash. His fees are considered very low tor the
great amouut of good he does.

A WAV DREAM.
BY THKODORK CARPENTER.
In a long-forgottc-u pocket,
Tied up with a silken band,
I found it: only a letter,
Traced in a giilish Land.
I read it over and over,
Ah, me! as I did before,
In the days that were full of sunlight—
The days that are uo more.
I dreamed of a golden Summer,
Far back in a joyous time,
YY’lien every day was a poem,
And eveiy hour a rhyme.
There came a fragrance of roses,
Aud lilacs and mignonette.
Aud a sound otsylvau music.
And the eyes that are w.th me yet.
A flood of purple suuset,
In scintiliaut glory came.
Till the deep old forests kindled,
And burned like a fluid of H tine.
There came a girlish figure.
With billows of fluatiug hair,
And she bent her taee above me—
An angel over my chair.
I saw it all in a moment,
YY’liile I held tlie crumpled sheet;
Aud then, as the vision faded,
The long, gray city street,
YY'ith its hateful rush and clamor,
Came back to my weary eyes:
Ah, still the fruit ess stiuggle!
All, still the worthless prize
Wastage Rales.
The report recently made by Mr. Farnswoith to the
House of Representatives, upon rate* of postage, con
tains a history of the reduction of postage in this coun
try which is not generally known. The first postage
act was passed in 1792, and introduced a highly com
plicated system. The lowest postage was 6 cents to
places within 30 miles, and from this it increased in
regular proportion according to distance, until it reach
ed 25 cents to places more than 450 miles distant. In
1810 ihe lowest rate was changed to 8 cents, and the
lowest distance to 40 miles. The 9 rates were reduced
to 8 and 25 cents was charged for distances over 500
milts In 1816 the minimum rates came down to G
cents and distanc* to 30 miles. Five rates were made
instead of 6, and the maximum was 25 cents,for over
400 miles. These rates, with one exception, when
they were increased, cominued until 1845. In that
year the half ounce weight was made the standard,
and 5 and 10 cents the rates. In 1851 the single rate
was made 3 cents for all distances under 3,000 miles,
aud 10 cee.ts charged for greater distances. In 1853
the present rate of 3 cents, prepaid by stamp, for all
distances, was established. The present bill reduces
letter [postage to 2 cents, and it is accompanied by a
reduction of one-half oil the postage of newspapers
regularly mailed by publishers. The Boston Journal
makes the following estimate of the effect of the pres
ent reduction:
1 During the last year there were sold 404,500,000 3
cent stamps, and 93,000,000 3 cent envelopes As
double rates are most always paid by additional
stamps of this denomination, and as foreign postage is
very frequently paid with two or more 3 cent stamps,
we may take $150,000,000, tlie value of 500,000,000
3 cent stamps, as the sum to be effected primarily by
the new reduction YY’ere the number sold to be sta-
tionary, the consequence would be a loss to the reve
nue of one-third of this sum—in other words, a loss of
$5,000,000. As a niatier of fact, however, the natural
increase in the number of letters is about 10 per cent,
annually, and this would make the number of 2 cent
stamps, substituted for threes, for the vear ending
June 30, $600,000,000, with a value of $20,000,000, aud
reducing the loss to $3,000,000.”
There is no doubt of the correctness of the Jour
nal's figuring. Experience has shown in every in
stance, that a reduction of poeiage has been followed
by an increase of letter writing, so that there ia every
probability that the rerenne fiom the sale of stamp’s
aud stamped envelopes will sutler little, if any rc duc-
tion.—Constitutionalist.

The amended act not only allows
these State exemptions, but allows
them as against all liens, no matter
how or where acquired, as well as all
debts contracted before its passage,
the decision of any court to the con
trary notwithstanding. The exemp
tions are not only not uniform in the
several States, but they are so large
in many of them that if bankrupts
take advantage of them it will be a
heavy blow t« the creditor class.
These exemptions, particularly as th :y
will be administered, will cover all the
property of a very large proportion of
the people in the country, most of
whom are small farmers or small mer
chants, mechanics and professional
men.
Extravagance of the Government.
—By the published summary of the
appropriation bills for the action of
Congress the present session we see
the total amount is a little over one
hundred and eighty-one millions of
dollars, and, considering that the
amount of some have been or are like
ly to be increased, the total may be set
down 'probably at one hundred and
ninety millions. This, as our readers
are aware, is for current expenditures
of the year, and does not include in
terest on the national debt. The
interest on the debt being about a hun
dred millions, the entire expenditure
will amouut to two hundred and nine
ty millions. But deducting the bur
den of the debt, which is a legacy of
the war, why is it necessary in these
times of peace that the cost of the
Government should be more than doub
le what it was thirteen years ago f Ad
mitting that the thirty millions for
pensions is a proper charge, and also a
legacy of the war, and as such deduct
ing that from the hundred and ninety
millions, there is still left a hundred
and sixty millions as the current year
ly cost of a peace establishment. But
the thirty-two millions set down for
thePost Office Department will be
balanced by the earnings of that De
partment less some five or six millions.
That leaves a hundred and thirty-four
millions for the civil, military and na
val services and for miscellaneous ob
jects—an amount too large by forty
millions at least Under the head of
“sundry civil expenses,” apart from
the regular appropriations for every
department, the sum set down is nearly
tYventy-eight millions. What are these
sundries that amount to as much as
the whole expenses of the Government
in its purer days thirty or forty years
ago? We have fallen upon evil times,
when extravagance and corruption go
hand in hand together.—N Y. Her
ald.
When Dr. Johnson asked the widow
Porter to be his wile, he told her can
didly that he was of mean extraction
that be had no money, and that he had
an uncle banged. The widew replied
that she cared nothing for his parent
age, that she had not had a relative
hanged, but she bad fifty who deserved
banging. So they made a match of it.
The United Status Senate.—The
Senate of the United States, of the
43d Congress, convened last Tuesday,
at Washington. Henry Wilson, of
Massachusetts, whose term as Vice
President began on that day, presided.
The oldest Senator is Simon Cameron,
born in 1799, and the two youngest,
Mr. Dorsey, bern in 1841, and Dr.
Conover, born in 1840. Mr. Cameron
is the only Senator over 70 years of
age. Forty-six of the Senators are
lawyers; five are interested in rail
roads; four are farmers; three are phy
sicians; two are journalists; two are
clergymen, Mr. Sprague is a manu
facturer, Mr. Chandler a merchant, Mr.
Ames an army officer, Mr. Clayton a
civil engineer, Mr. Jones a miner, and
Messrs. Buckingham, Caldwell, T. W.
Terry, Gilbert and West are engaged
in general business. Senators Alcorn,
Gordon and Ransom, weie generals in
tbe Confederate army during the war;
Browulow, Buckingham, Clayton,
Fenton, Hamlin, L. M. Morrill, Mor
ton, Ramsey, Sprague, Oglesby and
Stevenson, have in the past been Gov
ernors of their respective States.
I have always thanked God, say* * n
old philosopher, that I was not born a
woman, deeming her the bestower
rather than the eujoyer of happiness—
the flower-crowued sacrifice offered up
to the human lord of creation.
Was Bamlet Mad?
Rev. John Weiss, who deliver-d a
series of lectures on Shakspeare at New
York, took up “Hamlet” on Monday
evening and gave some new views of
the character. Therefore the question
that has chiefly engaged-the attention
of critics and others with respect to
this play is, was Hamlet’s madness real
or feigned? And now Mr. Weiss steps
in and meets tlie query by the re
mark that Hamlet yy t hs not mad at all.
His theory is that the Prince’s conduct,
after he saw the ghost of his father.
Yvas a protracted masquerade ot his
feelings and purposes, which he defines
by tbe word “irony.” He finds the
note of the character in Hamlet’s line,
that “a man may smile and smile and
be a villain,”—that is, a man’s de
meanor may express something quite
foreign to his purpose. He also ar
gues that tbe word “irony,” and its de
rivations, were not in the language
when Sbakspeare wrote; else a line
much cited by the supportersof the the
ory of feigned madness would have been
written, “to put an ironical disposition
on.” The new hypothesis is certain
ly an interesting one, and was support
ed by the lecturer with admirable
adroitness.—Baltimore Gazette.
Necessity of Carefulness in Old
Age.—An old man is like an old YVag-
on; with light loading and careful
usage it will last for years; but one
heavy load or sudden strain will break
it, and ruin it forever. Many people
reach the age of fifty, sixty, or even
seventy, measurably free from most of
the pains and infirmities of age, cherry
in heart, and sound in health, ripe in
wisdom and experience, Yvith sympa
thies mellowed by age, and with rea
sonable prospects and opportunities for
continued usefulness in the world for
a considerable time. Let such per
sons be thankful, but let them also be
careful. An old constitution is like
an old bone—broken with ease, mend
ed with difficulty. A young tree bends
to the gale, an old one snaps and falls
before the blast. A single bard lift;
an hour of heating work; an evening
of exposure to rain or damp; a severe
chill; au excess of food; tbe unusual
indulgence of any appetite or passion;
a sudden fit of anger; an improper dose
of medicine—any of these, or other simi
lar things, may cut off a valuable life
in au hour, and leave the fair hopes of
usefulness and enjoyment but a shape
less wreck.
Terrible Disaster at Smyrna.—A
terrible disaster presenting some very
extraordinary features, occurred at
Smyrna on the 10th ult. It appears
that there are a number of cafes in that
city which are built upon piles driven
into the sea. It was in one of these
establishments that the catastrophe oc
curred. An entertainment was given
on the night of Sunday by seven ac
robats, three of whom were women.
About 200 persons attended the per
formance. Suddenly, while all were
enjoying themselves, a loud cracking
was heard, and in a few seconds more
the piles sustaining the structure gave
way and the building descended into
the water, parrying all the audience
down with it. Within five minutes’
time the cafe was no longer to be seen.
Only a few persons near the entrance
succeeded in saving their lives by
jumping into the sea. Search for the
dead revealed eighty bodies, among
them all the acrobats bat one, dressed
in their showy costumes, and fifty more
were supposed to be under the water.
The police have, in consequence of
this event, closed all the other cafes
built upon piles iu the sea.
A Mother’s Love.—Lamartine gives
this illustration: “In some spring fresh
et, a river widely washed it shores and
rent away a bough whereon a bird had
built a cottage for a summer home.—
Down the white and whirling stream
drifted the green branch, with its wick
er cup of unfledged song, and flutter
ing beside it went the mother bird-—
Unheeding the roaring river, on she
went, her cries of agony and fear pier
cing the pauses in the storm. How
like the love of an old-fashioned moth
er, who followed the child she had
plucked from her heart all over the
world* Swept away by passion that
child might be, it mattered not—tho
he was bearing away with him tbe
fragrance of the shattered roof-tree,
yet that mother was with him, a Ruth
through all his life, and a Rachael at
bia death.”
—— ■ 1 —
A man whom Dr. Chalmers engag
ed to manage a disorderly Sunday-
school, kept his eyes wide open during
praying, and when one boy thrust a
pin into another, he marched up the
aisle, still praying, and cuffed the boy’s
ears, and went back again, praying all
the way. After that be was master
of the situation, for they thought that a
man who could wateh and pray like
that could not be put down.
The Profit in Cotton Yarns.—The
Columbus <Sw* says: “We heard com
petent authority say that tbe present
has been a most propitious season for
the manufacture of yarns. A pound
of cotton for which eighteen eeuts
were paid, cests, when worked inf®
yarns, including labor, twenty-five
cents, while the yarns have averaged
thirty-five cents. After paying taxes
and insurance, the manufacturer real
izes a profit of forty p er cent., or in
that neighborhood. Such statements,
coming from a trustworthy scource,
should have the effect to stimulate
erection of cotton manufactures.
A farmer, a short time since, near
Albany, was hiring bands for a third
of the crop as their wages, when two
of them stoutly refused to take the
third, after all his explanations of
what the third of the crop was, they
insisting on having the fourth ; and the
contract was written out accordingly.
