The State of Architecture on th.B Lunar

Tit -ugh negative in their results, the observations
already made by Lord Rosso with his great and new
telescope, are interesting. His lordship assures us
that very object on the surface of the moon 100
feet in height is now distinctly visible, and under
favorable circumstances even objects seventy feej
in he’ght. Rooks and stones innumerable are seen,
but no architecture, no building, although such a
single structure as Somerset House, for instance,
ought to be distinctly visible, far less a street, a vil
lage, or a town. Not a vestige of green fields or of
water appears, although even a small reservoir, or n
not very large flower pot, would be recognizable.
All seems desolate* There is something awful in
such a desert solitude. But the earth, too, has

Perky Davis.—Sir; The benefits I have received
finm the use of your invaluable remedy, the Pain
Killer, induces me to pen a word of praise for it.—
Experience has convinced me that for Headache, In

the system, Chills, Weariness, common Colds,
Hoarseness, Cholera, Cholera Morbus, Diarrhoea.
Dysentery, Toothache, &c., there is nothing better
than the Pain Killer. . I have this hour recovered
from a severe attack of the Sick Headache, by using
two teaspoonfuls, taken at thirty minutes interval, in
a wine glass full of hot water. lam confident that,
through the blessing of God, it saved me from the
cholera during the summer of 1843. Traveling,
amid heat, dust, toil, change of diet and constant ex
posure to an infected atmosphere, my system was
daily predisposed to dysentery attacks, accompanied
with pain, for which the Pain Killer was a sovereign
remedy, one teaspoonful curing the worst case in an
hour, or at most, half a day! I have heard many
cases the country over of Dysentery > eiqg cured by
its ue. Put in the teeth, it would stop toe tooth
ache. Gratitude, and a desire for its general use,
has drawn from me this unsolicited testimonial in its
favor. D. T. TAYLOR, Jr.,
