To-day tho vigorous stalk only bends be fore the g ilo—to-morrow, leafless and sap less, a chilil may break the brittle stem. To-day tho ripening fruit and waving grain—to-moruiw ’‘the land its taking its Sabbath after tpe toil.” To-day wo bear sweet songsters of the meadows and forrest, tho buzz and hum of myriad insects ; to-morrow —breath softly —all nature is hushed and silent. To.,day a stately edifice, complete in fin ish nnd surroundings, attracts the passer by—to-morrow a heap of ruins mark tbo site. To-day there are cattle on a thousand bills—to-morrow they tall in slaughter. The fashion of the world passeth away. But let Christ dwell within, and though we may pass away like tho faded leaf and the sapless stalk, wo shall “arise to news ness ol life,” Where everlasting spring abides. And never withering flowors. [Church Register.

W~Tho Proprietor of this Calebrated Medicine, justly claims for it «. superiority over al[ remedies ever offered to tho public for the anfo, certain, speedy and permanent cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fe ver, whether of short or long stunning. He refers to the entire Western and Southwestern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the assertion, that In no c «s© whatever will ttfnilto cure, if the directions are strictly followed and carried out. In n great many cases a single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and hole families have been cured by a single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the general health. It Is. however, prudent,«nd in every case more certain to euro, if lfs use Is continued in smaller doses fora week or two after tho disease has been checked, more ospe« daily in difficuKnnd longstanding cas-*. Usually, this medicine will not renuire any aid to keep ihe bowels In good order; should tho patient, however, requires cathartic medicine, alter having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S VEG ETABLE FAMILY PILLS..wiII be sufficient tar DU.
