Blark Twain on Woman- Tie Cosmopolitan, London.] On the 209th anniversary of St. Andrew’s Day, on Monday eveninglast, at the banquet given in Freemasons’ Hall, Mark Twain, who responded for “the ladies,” made the speech of the evening. We can give his words, but not the infinite drollery of bis ut terances. He said: 1 am *proud, indeed, of the distinction of being chosen to respond to this special toast to “the ladies,” or to women, if yon please, for that is the prefera ble term, perhaps; it is certainly the older, and therefore the more entitled to rev erence. [Laughter.] I hatra noticed that the Bible, with that plain, blunt honesty which is such a conspicuous characteristic of the Scriptures, is always particular to never refer to even the illustri ous mother of all mankind herself as a “lady,” but speaks of her as a woman. [Laughter.) It is odd, but you will find it is so. lam peculiarly proud of this honor, be cause I think that the toast to womewls one which, by right, and by every rule of gallan try, should take precedence of rll trthrw/ nf the army, of the navy, of even royalty itself, perhaps, though the latter is not necessary -in this day and in this land, for the reason that, tacitly, yon do drink a broad, general health to all good women when yon orink the health of the Queen of .England and the Princess of Wales. [Loud cheers.] 1 have in mind a poem just now, which is familiar to all, familiar to everybody. And what an inspiration that was (and how in stantly the present toast recalls the verses to onr minds,) when the moat noble, the most gracious, the purest and sweetest of all poets says: “Woman! O woman!—er— Worn—” [laughter]—however, you remember the tinea and you remember how feelingly, how daintily, how almost impreceptibly the verses rise up before you, feature by feature, the ideal of a true and perfect woman; and bow, as you contemplate the finished marvel, your •homage grows into worship of the intellect that could create so fair a thing out of mere breath, mere words. And you call to mind now, aa I speak, how the poet, with Btem fidelity to the history of all humanity, de livers this beautiful child of his heart and his brain over to the trials and the sorrows that must come to all, sooner or later, that abide in the earth; and how the pathetic story •culminates in that apostrophe—so wild, so regretful, so full of mournful retrospection. The lines ran thus: “Ala* i— Stas!—«—ab* l Ala*! alas! and soon. [Laughter.] I do not recollect thereat; but, taken altogether, it seems to me that that poem is the noblest trib ate to woman that human genius has ever brought -forth, [laughter] and I feel that if I were to talk hours I could not do my theme com pleter or more graceful justice than I have now done in simply quoting that poet’s matchless words. [Renewed laughter] The phases of the womanly nature are infinite in their variety. Take any type of woman and you shall find In it something to respect, something to admire, something to love. And you shall find the whole world •joining your heart and hand. Who was more patriotic than Joan of Arc ? Who was braver? Who has given us a grander in stance of self-sacrificing devotion ? Ah, you remember, you remember well, what a throb •of pain, what a great tidal wave of grief swept over ns all when Joan of Arc fell at Waterloo I [Much laughter] Who does not sorrow for tue loss of Sapnho, the sweet singer of Israel. [Laughter.] Who among us does not miss the gentle ministra tions, the softening influences, the hum ble piety of Lucretia Borgia? [Laughter.] Who can join in the heartless libel that says woman is extravagant in dress when he can took back and calf to mind our simple and lowly mother Eve arrayed in her modifica tion of the Highland costume? [Roars of laughter.] Sir, women have been soldiers; women nave been painters; women have been poets. Aa long as language lives the name of Cleopatra will live. And, not be cause she conquered George HI—[Laughter.] —but because she wrote tuese divine lines: “Let dor* delight to bark and bilo. For God hath made them no.*' .[More laughter ] The story of the wcrld is adorned with tne names of illustrious ones of our own sex—some of them sons of St. Andrew, too—Scott, Bruce, Bums, the war- rion Wallace, Ben Nevis—[laughter]—the gifted Ben Lomond, and the great new Scotchman, Ben Disraeli. [Great laughter.] •Out of thegreatplainsof history lower whole mountain ranges of sublime women— the •Queen of Sheba, Josephine, Semarimis, Sai- rey Gamp: the list i3 endless—[laughter] hut I will not call the mighty xoll, the names rise np in your own memories at the mere suggestion, luminous with the glory of deeds that can nut die, hal lowed by the loving worship of the good and the true of all epochs and of all -climes. [Cheers] Suffice it for onr pride And onr honor that tve in onr day have added to it such uainr-H aa iho<o of Grace Dolling and Florence Nightingale. [Cheers.] Wo man is all that she should be—gentle, pa tient, long-suffering, trustful, unselfish, fall -of generous impulses. It is her blessed •mission to comfort the suffering, plead for the erring, encourage the faint of purpose, snccor the distressed, uplift the fall en, befriend the frienoless—in a word, afford the healing of her sympathies and a home in her heart for all the bruised and perse- •cuted children of misfortune that knock at •Its hospitable door. [Cheers.] And when 1 .say, God bless her, there is none among ns -who has known the ennobling affection of a wife, or the steadfast devotion of * mother, <butin his heart will say, amen!

Tutt’s Pills are composed of many in gredients. Prominent among them are Sarsaparilla and W'ld Cherry, so united as to act together; the on? through Its admixture with other enbBtances, eurifying and purging; while the other Is strength enin' the system. Tnus these Pills are at the same tlmv a tonic and a cathartic, a desideratum long rougt t for by medical men, but never before dis covered. In other words, they do the work of two medicines and do it much better than any two we know of for they remove nothing from the system but imuurities. so that while they purge they also strengthen, and hence hey cause no debility and are followed by no reaotion. Br. rutl’s Pills have a wonderful Influence on tbe blood. They not only purify without weaktn- lug it, but they remove all noxiousparticles from the chyle ueforeli Is converted into fluid,and thus makes impure blood an alter impossibility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness at tending the operation ot this most excellent medicine, which never strains or tenure? the digestive organs, but causes them to work in a perfeejy natural man ner; hence persons taking them do not become pair and emaciated, baton the contrary, while all impuri ties *ie being removed, th i oomMned action oi tm Sarsaparilla and wild tineny purifies aud invigorates the body, and a robust state of health is the result of their united action. -Price Of cents a box.
