€m&titutwndi&t AUGUSTA, O-A-.z Sunday Morning, November 14, 1875. K isagotami. from buddhagosha’s “parables.” Kisagotami, clamping to her breast He r boy just dead, and with strange fear possessed. Ran through the (streets, besieging every door For some rare balm his lost life to re store; Until her neighbors, at this frantie grief, For which the world Itself has no relief. Began to say: “The girl has lost her head— What medicine is that which cures the dead?” But one more wise, and taking pity’s part, Offered this solace to her aching heart: “Dear girl, I cannot proffer you much joy, But there’s a doctor who vdll help your boy.” Asking his name, the girl ws s straightway sent To good Gotama, and to him she went. "Good master, aid me. for I hear it said You have the power to raise my child th it’s dead.” The Buddha answered: “If Ido this deed ’Tis needful you procure some mustard seed “Found in a house where neither groom nor bride Parent nor child, nor man nor maid, has died.” Then, with her child still c’asped about her waist, From house to house, a weary round she paced On her sad errand—but could cross no door Where Death’s dark shadow had not passed before. One voice forever on her pathway flew; "The dead are many, but the living few.” So, when Gotama asked if she had brought The mustard seed, so long and vainly sought. She said : “I have it not—each way I sped I found but few were Jiving, many dead.” And Buddha answered: "True enough, most true, Death comes to all, as it has come to you.” S< > fled her grief, and seeing in the night, At every house, a bright or fading light, She said: “Our human lives are just the same, First an uprising, then a dying flame; “Never on earth will such mutations cease, But after death come rest and endless peace.” GLEANINGS. Spanish women are great S’noras. “ Belles ” call a greafmany people to church. | “ Let us cross over and rest under the shade of the trees,” were the last \>ords of Stonewall Jackson. A Chicago man has lost his cheek. The doctors took it away in removing cancer. He won’t feel at home any more in Chicago. Japanese officials commit suicide when found guilty of theft or embez zlement. American officials retire to their farms and receive the congratu lations of friends. When a stranger asked a Detroit girl whom he met at a party if she was married, she promptly replied: “ Not quite, but I’ve sued three or four chaps for breach of promise.” James Fisk, Sr., has accomplished some good, bad as that absurd boy of his was. He has invented a harness that saves the horse from all chafing, and it is so made that a runaway horse may be instantly freed from the ve hicle. John ISmith was born, baptised, ar rested, shot, buried, married and sen tenced to the penitentiary for life, all in one week, recently, in Omaha. This did not prevent his having his tooth pulled and stopping his paper on the following Monday either. Soft hats have once more come into favor with gentlemen. They are a more sensible head gear than the hard stove-pipes, which, for some not dis coverable reason, are generally sup posed to impart dignity to their wear ers. A fashionable woman’s clothes weigh 24 pounds, exclusive of bat, furs and rubbers, while a man’s outfit hardly goes over 15 pounds. This is a free country, however, and any woman is at liberty to carry as much as a mule can draw, if she wants to. Rev. Mr. Kalloch, of California, for merly of Massachusetts, thinks that there is no more sin in going to a thea tre than in going to a church festival, but that young men should not go to either when their washing bills are un paid. “Tell Me, •f|j| . V:i ':i, tjgt ■,; it \•. • j.-,, PUR; and sitting up till HWciock in the morning, ruins the health and augments the old man’s coal bill. The folloving story is told of an old St. Louisian abroad : “The old gentle man (Fagin) went to the Oriental Bank (English) tc purchase exchange, and offered to give a check or draft on the First National Bank of St. Louis in payment. ‘St. Louis! St. Louis ?!’ re plied the manager. ‘Where Is St. Louis !! !’ Fagin looked at the mana ger in dumi* amazement for a minute or two, and then, 'raising himself to his full height with clenched fist, looking the very picture of Tom Benton in palmy days, replied: ‘St. Louis, sir, is a great city on the Mississippi river—a stream, sir; which, if turned on the islands of 3reat Britain, would wash them all iito the sea in twenty-four hours !’ lagin got his exchange, but not until tha bank had telegraphed, at Fagin’s expense, for information.” — [LoxAeviife Courier-Journal Why and When Lamps Explode. All explosions of coal-oil lamps are caused by the vapor or gas that col lects in the space above the oil. When full of oil of course a lamp contains no gas, but immediately on lighting the lamp consumption of oil begins, so on leaving a space for gas, which com mences to form as the lamp warms up, and after burning a short time, suffi cient gas will accumulate to cause an explosion. The gas in a lamp will ex plode only when ignited. In this re spect it is like gunpowder. Cheap or inferior oil is always the most dan gerous. The flame is communicated to the gas in the following manner: The wick tube in all lamp burners Is made larger than the wick which is to pass through the wick work tightly in the burner; on the contrary, it is essential that it move up and down with perfect ease. In this way it is unavoidable that space in the tube is left along the sides of the wick sufficient for the flame from the burner to pass down into the lamp and explode the gas. Many things may occur to cause the flame to pass down the wick tube and explode the lamp. 1. A lamp may be standing on a ta ble or mantle, and a slight puff of air from the open window, or the sudden opening of a door, cause an explosion. 2. A lamp may be taken up quickly from a table or mantle and instantly explode. 3. A lamp is taken into an entry where there is a draft, or out doors, and an explosion ensues. 4. A lighted lamp is taken up a flight of stairs, or is raised quickly to place be mantle, resulting in an explo sion! In/ill the cases the mischief is done V ( tlO air movement—either by suddetJ checking therafter, or forcing air dap the chimny against the flame. / ... 5 bwing down the chimney to ex tinguJthe light is a frequent cause of exjf ioa - , . , . 6 Jimp explosions have been cau'sefy using a chimney broken off at tl| to P or one that has a piece b okP ut whereby the draft is ren qgrefiriable and the flame unsteady. 7 fnetimes a thoughtless person put Jsmall sized wick in a large bur nerjis leaving considerable space in the#® along the edges of the wick. ‘old burner, with its air-drafts < lcjd up, which rightfully should be thM a away, is sometimee continued and the final result is explosion. TAKE! SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR For all diseases of the Livet, Stomach and Spleen. MALARIOUS FEVERS. BOWEL COMPLAINTS. DYSPEPSIA, MENTAL DEPRESSION, RESTLESSNESS, JAUN DICE, NAUSEA. SICK HEADACHE, CON STIPATION, COLIC and BILIOUSNESS. It is eminently a Family Medicine, and by being kept ready for immediate resort, will save many an hour of suf fering, and many a dollar in time, and doctors’ bills.

Eminent physicians commend it as the most EFFECTUAL SPECIFIC for Constipation, Headache, Pain in the Shoulders, Dizziness, Sour Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpi tation of the Heart, Pain in the Region of the Kidneys, Despondently, Gloom, and Forebodings of Evil, aii of which are the offspring of a diseased Liver.

The Kitaon Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.: Gentlemen : We have been running your Compound Opener Lappors and Finisher Lappers, with Evenors, lor more than one year, and frankly say that they havo given the most eminent satisfaction. We have no hesitancy in giving you our unqualitied en dorsement, and cordially recommend your Maohlnes. F. COGIN, Superintendent. OFFICE LANGLEY MANUFACTURING COMPANY, I Langley, 8. €., April 14, 1873. f The Kitaon Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.; Gentlemen . f have been running your system erf Compound Opener Lappers and Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, tor more than two vears past at the Cotton 41 ill of tne Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, w e haye not weighed a pound of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have hail a remarkable regularity of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker- without being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con siderations with this arrangement is its socuFty against Are. Yours, &e., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent. OFFICHMASSACHUSETTS COTTON MILLS,!
