* Earthquakes in History. During the first half of this century 3, 240 of these visitations were noticed, or about one every week. In Europe du ring the last ten years, there have been 320 earthquakes, or one every nine day-. At the commencement of the fifteenth century, only 750 of these shocks had found a place in history. During the next 300 years, 2,804 earthquakes are re corded, or almost four times as many as during all the succeeding ages. From these facts it has been inferred that, what ever may be the origin of these uphcav- ings of the crust, of the earth, the pheno mena are greatly increasing in number, and their causes in violence. Among the earliest earthquakes report ed is that by which the famous Hercula neum and Pompeii were destroyed in the year G3. Fifty two years after this, An tioch, in Syria, was almost entirely ue stroyed, the calamity occuring just at the time the then Emperor Trajan, was on a visit to the place. In 458 it was agaiu visited with an earthquake, and then again in 526, the number of persons perishing in the ruins on this latter oc casion being estimated at a quarter of a million. In 1G92, Port lloyal, the capital of Jamaica, was entirely submerged by the force of an earthquake, which swallowed up over a thousand acres, and drove ships so far inland that they floated above the buried city. ^ In 1772, an entire volcano sunk into the earth in the Island of Java, carrying with it forty villages, the mountain itself, which was fifteen miles long and six broad, accompanying the hamlets and their 2,- 957 inhabitants. On thelst of November, 1755, occurred the memorable earthquake at Lisbon by which 60,000 persons perished in the twinkling of an eye. Here also was the great tidal wave seen of an altitude of fif ty feet. One of the most awful incidents of this earthquake was the sinking of the eity quay. This had just been construct ed of marble at an immense expense, and to it, as to a last refuge, fled thousands of the hapless inhabitants. Without a mo ment’s warning the earth suddenly open ed to receive it, and after sucking in the mass must have closed over it, as not a single body of all the thousands that went down, nor the least spar or ark from any of the ships near by that were sucked in to the chasm, ever came to the top. The water there is near 600 fathoms deep, and at an unknown distance beneath the bot tom repose the hapless Lisbonese. This Lisbon earthquake, Humboldt estimates, affected a portion of the earth four times as large as Europe, and was felt in the Alps, on tne coast of Sweden, in the West Indies, on Lake Ontario, and along the coast of Massachusetts. In 1811, the earth quakes on the Mis sissippi, severest at New Madrid, Mo., shook the ground for many days, aud al ternately raised and depressed it here and there, the latter sections forming a sec tion called the sunken country to this day. On the 26th March, 1812, a violent thunderstorm, with incessant flashes, was observed by the people of New Madrid, aud at the same time the city of Caracas, in South America, was laid in ruins, 12,- 000 of its people perishing. The great eruption of Vesuvius in 1857, with accompanying earthquakes, will also be remembered as leading to an immense destruction of human life, va riously estimated at from 22,000 to 40,- 000 lives. In 1858, June 19, the Valley of Mexi co was also devastated by one of these visitations, demolishing houses through out its length and destroying the costly aqueduct supplying the city with water. March 22, 1859, Quito, in Equador, was nearly destroyed by an earthquake and thousands of lives were lost. Does the Laboring Man Pay Taxes. Radical legislation requires the consum er to pay all taxes. It taxes— The hat on your head, The hoots on your feet, The clothes on your person, The food you eat, The tea and coffee you drink, The pot it is cooked in, The cup you drink it out of, The impliments on your farm, The tools you work with, The paper you write on, The pen and ink you use, The papers aud books you read, The furniture in your house, The gas or oil you burn, The coal you consume, The stove you burn it in, The match you light it with, The medicine you take, The tobacco you smoke, The pipe you smoke it in, The dishes on your table, All you eat off of them. The laboring man of the country, who owns a little house and lot, which he has earned by toiling from early morning till night, pays State tax, school tax, road tax upon it; while his next door neighbor, who is a boudholder, owning 850,000 in bonds pays no taxes whatever, draws in terest in gold, has his money in a little home ! If the masses of the laboring men desire equal taxation of every spe cies of property according to its real value —Government bonds aud other securities included—if they want one currency tor the Government and the people, the la borer and the office holder, the pensioner and the soldier, the producer and the bondholder, they will not vote the Radi cal ticket, that is certain. Dartmouth College has graduated over 3,500 persons. The degree of LL. D. has been conferred by it twenty-four times, and D. D. 106 times. Two hundred and eighty barrels of con demned whiskey was sold by the Unitea btates Marshal in New York, recently, at seventy six cents per gallon. Elias Sudduth, of Harrison county, Ohio, who is one hundred and eight years eld, reads without spectacles, and chops his own fire-wood. The end of the Radical party has been fixed by the people for the 3d of Novem ber. Death of Marshal Key. WHiat a tragedy that incident of French hi torv was. After the hurtle of Waterloo. Mar shal Ney concealed himselt in a Chateau near Aurillar. belonging to M >ns. de Cantab >ttbre, his kinsman When he quitted Paris he im prudently carried with him a magnificent sa- j [ire which Napoleon had worn in Egypt. and had given the Marshal. He one day brought it down from his chamber t<> the drawing loom to show Mona, de Cantalonhre and his family. j It was forgotten on the sofa of the drawing- j room. Visitors from Aurillac made their ap- , pearance while lying there. Its form and rich ness lit was covered with precious stones) at- ; tracted their attention. They spoke of it at, Anrrillac. An ardent royalist heard them and 1 exclaimed: “There are hut two such sabres in j France—one K-longs to Nay. the other to Mu- j rat. Ney must be concealed in the chateau de j Besson is.” He secretly organized a hand of voluntary, ardent royalists as himself. The postmaster at Aurillac, who was Mons. Cantalouhre’s brother, heard that the extreme royalists were organizing in order to arrest the • Marshal. He set out at once to warn them. \ As the least delay might he fatal, and as it j was necessary his movements should escape ! notice, he set out on foot, and although the j night was very dark, he went across the fields ; to reach the chateau sooner. When half tne j distance had been accomplished, he fell into a j broad ditch and broke his leg. He could nut ' move There he lay the whole night. At sunrise the next morning, the hand of royalists appeared at the cliatteau. They did j not know Marsha! Ney. lie was alone in the j yard when they made their appearance. They j asked him where was Marshal Ney. He might , | easily have givcm a false direction and have j | fled/ lie replied : “ You seek Marsha! Ney 1 I I will show him to yon. Follow me.” Hecar- ried them to his chamber. Once in it he said : “ I am Marshal Ney.’ They arrested him and carried him to Auril lac. This happened on the 5th of August 181-5. one month and nineteen days after the battle of Waterloo. He was brought to Paris. He reached it on the 19th of August. As he came up to Paris, he and tbe gendarmes who guard ed him stopped for refreshments at a wayside inn. While they were refreshing themselves, a hand of soldiers of the imperial army, sent to their homes, entered the inn. There were at least forty of them. They recognized the Marshal and exchanged significant glances with him to let him know they could deliver him from the gendarms. The latter themselves seemed adverse to the duty imposed on them. The Marshal smiled and shook his head. His wife and four children came to meet him. They met some miles from Paris. The scene was heart-rending, and, despite himself, tears trickled down the soldiei s cheeks. '1 he officer who commanded the gendarms said : “You weep, Marshal.” Nev answered : “I am not weeping for my self, sir : my tears are for that widow and those orphans.” The day Ney reached Paris, Col. Labedovere was shot. Ney was tried before the Chamber of Peers. There were one hundred and sixty-one peers present. He was found guilty by a unanimous vote. Upon the question of punishment, one hundred and thirty-nine peers voted for death; twenty-two voted for exile. The vote was ta ken at half-past 11 o’clock at night, on the 6th of December, 1815. When the Secretary of the Chamber of Peers went to acquaint the prisoner with the sen tence, he began thus : “ Sentence of Monsieur le Due d’Elehingen, Prince de la Moskowa, Marshall of France.” Ney interrupted him with : “Monsieur, say Michael Ney—and soon a little dust.” When the Secretary ceased reading, Ney simply said in a tune of command : “ I wish to see my wife to-morrow morning, at live o’ clock. 1 hope no one will take the liberty of announcing to her my fate. I shall do that.” The following morning his wife and four childien and their aunt. Mine. Gainot came, llis wife was nigh distracted with grief. To console her Ney said : “ All hope is not lost; go ask my pardon from the King ; he will not refuse you, I dare say.” The Chamber of Peers had not delivered the sentence an hour when the Duke de Richelieu (then Minister of Foreign Affairs) asked Louis XVIII to pardon Ney. The King replied : “ Were I weak enough to pardon Marshal Ney my family would never forgive me: and you yourself, would be ar raigned for high treason ” The Marshal’s wife went at once to Duke de Doras, one of the King’s first chamberlains. The King was unable to see her. She returned a few hours afterward and was told : “ The audience you solicit has no longer an object.” The hack went down the central avenue of the Garden of the Luxembourg, aud did not stop until it reached the Place de PObservatoire. Count de Rochechouart was present at the ex ecution as commander-in-cliief of Paris. He was accompanied by two members of the Cham ber of Peers Nay walked boldly to the place assigned him. He refused to be blindfolded. He said to the soldiers who were to shoot him : “ Soldiers. I have confronted death on a hun dred fields of battle, and am not afraid of it. Aim at my heart that I may die without un necessary pain.” The officer in command of the platoon was so overcome by emotion he could not give the fatal word. One of the Peers, angry at delay, shouted the command. Marshal Nay fell. Six balls bad entered his body ; three of them in his head. His body was carried to the Foundling Hospital. It was then borne to Pere la Chaise. The spot where it reposes is still a favorite pilgrimage.

Newton, Locke, liayle, Shenstune Leibnitz, Hobbes, Voltaire, Dope, Adam Smfth , Thomson, Akenside, Arbuthnnt, Hume. Gibbon.

It has not failed in a single instance to have the wished- f«-r effect. : 1 am doing a pretty large country practice, and have daily use for some article of the kind. I am free to confess that I know of no remedy recommended by the ablest authors that is so certain and speedy in its effects. On the contrary they are uncertain in the extreme. My object in writing to you is to find out uoou what terms I can get the medicine directly from you. If I can get it upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of it. I am aware that the use of such articles is contrary to the teach ings and practice of a great majority of the regular line ot M. D.’s, but I see no just cause or good sense in discarding a remedy which we know to be efficient, simply because we may be ignorant of its combination. For my part, I shall make it a rule to use all anil any means to alleviate suffering humanity which 1 may be able to command—not hesitating because some one more ingenious than myself may have learned its effects first, and secured the sole right to use that knowledge. However, I am by no means an advocate and supporter of the thousands of worthless nostrums that flood the country, that purport to cure all manner of disease to which human flesh is heir.

But even in this dark retreat the light of God was with in him, and he thought by himself, WHo is my Creator? At the age of sixteen he came out of his cave, and looking for the first time upon the heavens and the earth, and lie was astonished and delighted, and he asked of all the creatures lie met. Who is your Creator ? The sun arose ; Abraham fell on his face, ex claiming. Ah, this is the Creator! how glori ous he is ! But the sun went down, und it was dark ; and he said that disappearing light could not be the Creator. But the moon and stars went down, and Abraham stood alone. He went to his father, and said. Who is the God of Heaven and earth ? and Tenth directed him to his idols. I will prove them, thought Abraham ; and when he was alone he laid be fore them the most delicious viands.saying. If ye are living gods, acce*pt these offerings. But they stood immoveable. And these, said Abraham, are what my fath er worships as gods. Perhaps I can teach him better. He took his staff aud broke the idols in pieces, except one. and into the hands of this one he placed his staff, and said to his fa ther, O father, this god has killed all his bro thers. Torah was angry, aud said, You are in sulting me, boy; how could he ; for I made him with my own hands. Be not angry, father, said Abraham ; let thine own ear take in what thine own lips have spoken. Dost thou not be lieve that thy got! could do what my own child hood has done ? How then can this be the god who created me and thee, and earth, and the heaveus ? Tenth stood confounded and struck dumb before his child. Administrators Sale.

I was wounded about two years ago—was taken prisoner and confined for sixteen months. Being moved so often, my wounds have not healed yet. I have not sat up a moment since I was wounded. I am shot through the hips. My general health is impaired, and I need something to assist nature. 1 have more faith in your Sarsaparilla than in anything else. I wish that that is genuine.

At thir teen years of age he had a chronic diarrhea and scrofula, for which I gave him your Sarsa parilla. It cured him. I have for ten years recommended it to many in New Y'ork, Ohio and Iowa, for scrofula, fever sores, and general debility. Perfect success has attended it. The cures effected in some cases of scrofula and fever sores were almost miraculous I am very anxious for my son to again have recourse to your Sarsapa rilla.

FOR THE CURE OF AGUE A.YD FEVER OR CHIEFS A AH FEVER. The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly claims for it a superiority over all ottier | remedies ever offered to the public for the safe, i certain, speedy and permanent cure of Ague and | Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether of short ! or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and South-western country to bear : him testimony to the truth of the assertion. that in no case whatever will it fail to cure, if j the directions are strictly followed and carried ; out. In a great many cases a single dose has 1 been sufficient for a enie, and whole families ! have been cured by a single bottle, with a per- feet restoration to the general health. It is, however, prudent, and in every case more ces tain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually, this medicine will Qjt require any aid to keep the bowels in good order: should the patient, however, re quire a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS '■ will be sufficient. j’ DR.
