Durham deceased of Clarke Cos., Ga. Dr. L. Dur liams’s practice is not confined to bis neighborhood but patients come to him from all parts of this and adjoining States. lr. Durham does not profess to cure every case, but his great success in the majority of cases that apply to him for treatment proves his method of treating cliornic dis eases superior to that of the regular prac tice. Among the diseases which he treats with the most gratifying success, may be mentioned the following : Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Dropsy, Bronchitis, Ineipient Consumption, Dyspepsia Scrofula or jKings ! Evil, Sick and Nervous Headache, Fits, Diseases of*the Lye and Ear Diseases of the Liver and Kidneys, Heart Disease, Secret Disease. Disease peculiar to females a specialty.

Lj But this has nothing to do with QiW) gress, except to remind us tm* mir' Vesst: L-i employ their tin* ami From the present S’: :Vot puufir' ness it is evident that no adjournment j cun be - reached before August. U 1 the thirteen general appropriation bills, but two have passed the House, and arc now before the Senate, while the other; are still iu committee. These, with all the mass of other legislation, and the thousands of private bills which clog the calendar, render inevitable a long tedious puli through the hot weather, which the mild winter aDd early, open spring presages. It appears that both houses propose to. act favorably upon the bill appro-, printing $50,000 to enable vmptain Howgate to demonstrate that the North pole isjust where everybody thinks it is. The tomfoolery of fending out Arctic expeditions will probably never cause. Somebody is always beiDg fro* zen to death up there, and somebody is sent out next year to look up his cadaver. The discovery of Polar seas can hardly be of service to commerce, since it requires months of toil, bushels of treasure, and scores of lives to rtaih the entrancing region. Iho supi of $50,000 is not muei. to a Government which is anticipating a big wheat jerop next year, but if an appropriation )f a like amount is to be made for Jvery piece of tomfoolery that is proposed to Congress, it will be necessary to ( start the greenback presses and run thqui on full time. Rut it may be the purp*se of Congressmen to have Captain Uovgale bring back a cargo of icc for the Con* gressional lemonade bowl this sunnier* none having been frozen in this loality. And here comes James Gordon Ben nett with a proposition to send ves sel on the same errand at his ovo ex pense, under government protection. Congress can find a precedent forgrant ing this request in the first of the Pickwick papers, where it is relat ed that the ‘‘association had head read with feelings of uomingled satbaclion and unqualified approval, the paper, communicated by Samuel Prkwick, Esq., G. C M P , entitled ‘ beeula. tions on the Soilrce of the Ilaipstead Ponds, &e." After this the clo pro ceeded to vote full permission to Mr. Pickwick 10-travel in the intrest of science as far as he pleased, atbis own cost, and to forward full report of his observations by mail, he p.vng the postage. Mr. Bennett follow in the footsteps of an illustrious precccssor and Congress need not hesiiati to fol low so-brilliant an example. With the advent of Lent, society, viaich has been unusually gay for some weeks past., settles down to a dead calm. Some ol the belles from other cities who have spent the sea on here are now taking their leave. Washington is really the place to see pretty and sty lish ladies. A walk down Pennsylvania Avenue at four o’clock on a bright af- j ternoon is enough to dazzle the eyes 1 turn the head of a susceptible un 'tarried man —and some of the married ■ /. ones, too. The lovely creatures are all out then in gorgeous array. With the large number who live here and the numerous visitors during the season,wo are blessed with more beauty to the square yard than any other city in the country! And with all the rest no pother place has such a population of ‘husband-hunters.” Young women tnd widows fro u all over the country Bock to Washington during the winter gaieties, to make a catch, aDd many of them succeed, though the match may not always be as brilliant as anticipated The real husband-diUDter opeiis her campaign from some obscure residence, generally a boarding house, and com mences with the Capitol You can pick her out in the thronged galleries, through her utter lack of interest in i the proceedings, and her anxious method of regarding anything which may be considered eligible. Iu one month she is the best posted woman in Washington. She lias a congressional and departmental directory, before whic-ti Ben. Poore’s dies miserably, and which would be the eternal fortune of any newspaper reporter who could se cure access to it. The ratings are : A 1, senator ; A 2. member ; B 1, foreign legation ;B 2, clerks. A senatpr or member may be as poor as a candidate 1 g,,.. , 4 j least ?2,500 a year \ After a Jiu-bumJ hunter gets to be pretty / „ ~ reduces her ambition materially, and is ijot above aSI 200 efcrk ; and as hope takes fainter and fainter colors, she looks favorably upon the man whose references are worth a month’s board. The present season has not been as pro lific of matches as some previous ones, few souls have been made happy There are still some eligible matches left for ambitious maidens. Vice-Pres ident Wheeler is a widower, ex-Vice- President Ferry is a bachelor, Senator Anthony is single, but he may once have been double, and there aro others for whom matrimony appears to have \no charms. There are_al ways a lot of impecunious young army and navy officers looking aftet heiresses, so that the girls need not despair. Phono. nT ♦ O The Usirs. There were a great many Christian people who acted os though they be lieved that the; Saviour, when he said, “Suffer little children to cnme unto me,” had a raw-hide concealed about his person, and only wanted to coax them within reach of it. Even when they do not beat their offspring, they lie to and deceive them, and then ex pect them to tell the truth. The lec turer told a story about a little boy in Grand ilapids, Mich. The child s lath er and mother had promised to take it riding with them tlie next time they went out. Weeks passed and stilMhe promise was unfulfilled. At length, one bright morning, the father and mother went quietly out of the rear of the house, got into their drove away. . f s they wore goiug out they passed the front piazza, on which the child was standing with his nurse. The little fellow looked up into the nurse’s face, pointed to his departing parents, and said, “There go the two d —dest liars in Grand Rapids!’ — In rjcr soil's Lecture . If in the morn of life you remember God, he will not forget you in old age. • A minister asked a tipsy fellow lean ing against a fence where he expected to go when he died. ‘lf I can’t get along any bettor than I do now,’ said lie, ‘I shan’tjgo any where.’ _ A young man in San Francisco put out one of his eyes while taking off a shirt, a spiral stud doing the mischief.

Chronicle says : On the farm of Mr. Daniel Cook, which is in one corner of Kit tery, Me., close up to the York and Elliott boundary lines, is an intermit tent spridg, which is c not only a most eccentric naturial curiosity but a very great convenience to its owner. Its existence was unknown to Mr. Conk (or any one else in the neighborhood) until one of the parched summers n! five or six yeaisago, at which time all the springs, swamp holes, etc, in the cattlo pastures dried up, and the ani mals had to be driven quito a distance twice a day to got water. One even ing on turning the cattle out of the pastuie in which they had been feed ing during the day into the one in which the intermittent spring is situat ed, on their way to water, the thirsty creatures utterly' disgusted the boy who had them in charge hy deserting the path and running to a distant part of the pasture, in spite of the boy’s vigorous use of language and stones. — Following them up, the boy was-aston ished to fiud them engaged in drinking heartily of a spring which was dis- charging a goodly amount of water, but which lie bad never heard of before. — This lasted until the advent of wot weather in the autumn, when it dis appeared, and did not again show itself until the following summer, which was also a dry one. Since then it has been watched by the farmer, not so much on account of its odd performances as because of its usefulness ; and he has foned that whenever a drought becomes so severq that all the other springs in | tho vicinity fail, this one commences business, and keeps it up until rain ]' u t~Jii_U)_start the other springs SBitlsnzs f>||^ ate -y knocks The gosiiu is the ol'-jg . child They are yellow all over amd as* soft as a hall of worsted. 1 heir foot iz wove whole, and they kan swim az easy as a drop of kastor oil on tne water.

The goslin waddles when he walks and paddles when he swims, but never dives like a duck out of sight in the water, but anly changes ends.

It amounts almost to a tnnnia. li they ure dispos ed not to fiyht ye tiger, or play poker, or bet their coin on any came of chance, they are sure to exhibit their propensity for bet tin" in sortie way,and they will go their whole pile on any thing, no matter how preposterous. — “I’ll bet you §JO that man’s name is .Sneider,” said one Californian to an- other, as a man who was an utter stranger to both passed by. “It’s a go,” said his companion, inquiry was made, and the wager lost by the man who proposed it. Up in one of tho mountain towns stage coach tipped ov er, and, it is related, as the passengers went tumbling down a rocky embank ment into a gulch, a fellow shoutel : “I’ll bet the drinks for all of us that half of us gut killed.” The bet was taken, but the casualties wore not fatal. A doctor reported that a well known citizen Who was at the point of death wou!d ( unt live twenty minutes longer. “l'!l bet $5 that lie will,’’ said one of his friends. The wager was accepted, and the stakes were eparecly put un when the report came that the man wife dead, “ho you give up?” asked tho inan who won. ‘ No,” was the reply ‘ I'll now bet $lO that heisfl’t dead.”—i The bet was taken, and abou* that time the doctor rc-appoarcd “Is the man dead, doctor?” the question was asked. “Yes. dead as Julius Caesar.” “Then L've lost again.” was the reply. “Now I’ll bet S2O that lie won'i*go into a five foot-six coffin.

The following is said to be one of the most brilliant articles written by the lamented George P. Prentice : “The fiat of nature is inexorable. — There is no appeal for relief of the great law which dooms us to dust W o flourish and fade as the leaves of the forest, and the flowers that bloom and wither in a day have no frailer bold on life than the mightiest monarch that ever shook the earth with his footsteps Generations of men will appear and disappear as the grass, and the multi tude that throng the world to-day wi” disappear as the footsteps on the shore. Men seldom think of the great event of death until the shadow falls across their own pathway, hiding from their eyes the faces of loved ones whose liv in" smile was the sunlight of their ex; istence. Death is the antagonist of life, and the cold thought of to mi, is the skeleton of all feasts. “We do not want to go through tbj, dart: valley although its dark passage may lead to Paradise ; we do not want to lay down in the grave, even with princes for bed fellows.

When about to yield his young existence as a sacrifice to fate, his Cjemantha asks if they should meet again, to which be replies : “ ‘I have asked that dreadful ques tion of the hills that looked eternal —o' the clear streams that flow forever—of the stars among whose fields of azure my raised spirit has walked in glory.— All were dumb ; but as I gaze upon thy living face I feel that there i something in the love that mantel; through its beauty that can not wholly perish.
