The process o f the seasons has again enabled the husbandmen to garner the fruits of successful toil. Industry has been generally well rewarded. We are at peace with all nations, and tranquillity, with a few exceptions, prevails at home. Within the past year -we haye in the main been free from ills which, elsewhere have affected our kind. If some o f us have had calamities, there would be an occasion for sympathy -with the sufferers? of resignation on their part to the wfilL of the Most High, and of re joicing to the many -who have been more favored. I therefore recommend that on THURSDAY, »THE THIRTIETH DAY OF NOVE?.IBER next, the peo- i places o f worship, and dgments to Almighty Goi> for tUe 'Blessings He lias conferred upon tlicm, for their merciful exemption from evils, and invoke Hia protection and kindness for their less fortunate brethren ^Yhom, in His wisdom, He has deemed it best to chastise. In faith whereof, I hirre hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the ITdited States to bo affixed.

But a much paore oflectivo way of accompUsb- ing the object is to get a good Democratic pa per into the house of each voter. We have made iuguiry frequently,and find that very few of onr subscribers ever miss the election. I t is the men who don’t take any p a p e r who are the absentees on election day. ___ I t is a f a c t w e ll w o r t h y o f n o t e that nearly every business m an who complains that advertising don’t pay, is a p atron of wan dering humbugs and advertising tramps, and ample proof that the kind of advertising pa tronized by them don’l pay, is to be had by the appearance of closed doors, and shutters tick eted eemoved (to a cheaper place,) or closed (for want of custom.) Newspapcrs,band-blUs, and posters, are the only judicious modes of advertising, a n d they always rA.Y. ----- T b e “ N o r t b e m l i i g b t s ” — o f w b i c k we have had some fine displays recently, p a r ticularly on Thursday cv’g. of last week—can not be f ally estimated here, for by day we have the great golden snn always with n s ; bnt in Polar climes they prove a boon indeed, for without them the inhabitants of iee-bonnd countries would live in totakdarkness half the year. They arc supposed to be caused by tbe reflection of the vast fields of ice in tbe Polar seas, and this theory seems to be a tangible one, for tbe lights are not peculiar to tbe Northern hemisphere, hut are also to be seen in the far-off.Sonfhem seas, where they are gen- eraDy known as the “ A urora Australis.” ___ T b e in s u r a n c e co m p a n ies b a v e had considerable credit f o r their honorable promise to p ay their Chicago losses “in full.\ The real performance, however, is far from creditable. Companies whose sworn assets equal and In some cases exceed their losses, do not perform w h a t they advertise. Of some fifty companies th a t suspended,several have offered compromises w ith the policy-holders on terms that a re n o t regarded satisfactory. The Mer chants’, of New York, offers 30 cents on a dol lar ; the Connecticut, of Hartford, offers 30 cents down, and 5 cents in ninety d a y s ; the North American, of Hartford, offers S5 cents ; the Manhattan, of New York, offers 35 to 40 cents ; the Astor, of New York, compromised with the policy-holders at 50 cents, and gave them a sight d raft on New York, on which pay ment was refused; the Security, of New York, estimate 50 cents to be satisfactory to them selves, b nt the policy holders are n o t generally willing to accept. ----- T b e ed ito r of Good Health gives good counsel to his readers, and especially to invalids who have managed to puB through the Smmner b nt who are in danger o f dying during the cool months of Antnmn and the colder and harsher ones of \Winter. He says ; \We most earnestly urge upon aU suffering from chest affections, or who are prone to thoracic complieationsat this season,to p repare either to resist or subdue the attacks. Chest preservers, lined with chamois, wifi be found effioacions, and a simply-made cotton-wool res pirator equally beneficial to be worn, particu larly by those whose duties force them out in the e a iiy morning or late evening air. Prof. T yndall tells us that in using the cotton-wool respirator the atmosphere of the highest mount ain may be breathed in tbe sick room of tbe in valid, so far as purity goes. The great object is having the air coming through the cotton wool for breathing purposes ; and, as preven tion is better than cure, we p articularly recom mend during the present and approaching sea son, n o t only the wearing of respu-ators, but of chest preservers also. These are hints wliich, if acted upon, may prove of immense sen-ice to some of onr invalid readers. The only objection to the advice is that the doctor does not state what a cotton wool respirator is, or where such a thing is ob tained. F O A F n OF s u P F i c r i s o F s .

The Board at once proceeded to business, and its sessions are so indnstriotisly k e p t up as .to w arrant the belief that the Supervisors are determined to dispatch business with a celerity eon.sistent w ith the public interests. The Chair m a n is n o t only a n able and fair-minded gen tleman, but is a thorough worker, who will discharge the duties of his position with credit to himself, and acceptably to the public.

The plan is simply for each neighborhood to combine and build a creamery, where, when milk is flush and there is a prospect of the m arket being overstocked, each one can send a portion of his milk to he made into cheese o r butter, ship ping just enough to tho New York dealers to keep the price up to a point that will give pro ducers a reasonable componsatlou for labor and oapital invested. ___ U l s t e r Co. h a s a r a i l r o a d , a n d is in something of a muddle over it. We find in the Eondont Daily Freeman, of Tuesday, the foUowing description: The scenery along the rente of the Eondont & Oswego R ailroad Is di'eary and desolate. The great rugged mouDtains that hem in the valley ai*e covdred 'wUli enow, ■with licre and there a peak laid bare, peeping from under its cover,. like the bushy head of a bug from under the coverlid. The stone traffic is dull, and the late election h as made the credit of the road itself rather shaky. It is indebted for ties, tim ber. &c., in a large amount to the merchants and contractors of Olive and Shandaken, and the vaOTe reports that ■went flying u p the lino on Friday and Saturday made many a person whose all is staked turn pale a t the thought of ■what the result might be. Depots are being built along the line, thanks to the people of tbe towns, and not to the road; and buildings aie springing up rapidly about tbe station dens. Beaverkul has a new' depot which puts us in mind of the house of the Swiss Family R obin - son. It is built on spiles, on account of the marshy n ature of the ground. We don’t know how the passengers are to g e t in this building, unless they climb the posts. We recommend a dumb-waitdr, to bo worked by the station, agent; a good plan to keep hU blood in eircii- lation. Brooks’ Crossing has no depot, bnt it docs have a variety store, in a slab house, and a post-office. The mall trains do not stop a t this.statiou, the mails being chucked off and on the train by a postman while it is in motion, which, by the way. don’t require a great deal of exertion, os tUetnail only averages a letter or two each week. This post-office, we under stand, is rnn by the ,U. S. Government at the enormous expense of S I per month. . . . ,N o . 5 ’s b o y s m a d e D e x t e r tim e a t the Friday night fire; and the Silslpj had steam up before the hose was ready. . . . .

If Albany steamers h ad n o t gone over to the rescue, the fire would have sw'cpt away tho entire business x:>ortion of the place. Green- bush has been (xiiarreUng over fire department appropriations for some time, a n d tlie depart ment has gone to irieces. ___ E h i n e b e c k b r a g s o n its B utton steamer, which, with 100 lbs. steam, Ij^ inch nozzle, 900 feet of hose, throw 170 ft. Tins is better than the Eondont trial where the C lapp & J ones Steamer beat it by throwing 145 feet. If Ehinebeck endorses these last figures -«by don’t it challenge Ponckhocltie ? ___ T h e p e o p l e o f N e w O r lean s , i t i s reported, bave decided against the substitation of a paid for a volunteer lire department in that city. ’The ground taken for this extraordinary conclusion is said to have been furnished by the fire in CMcago, where a paid fire department was in existence. A similar reason m ight he urged against the employment of any fire de partm ent whatever. There is no conceivable organization of firemen who would he compe tent to extinguish a conflagration which origi nated in a neighborhood consisting wholly of fram e dweUings, and fanned into uncontrolla ble fury by a hurricane. U n d er such cirenm- stances, the feeble columns of water with which a fire-engine m ight attem p t to stop the progi'css of the flames woffid be converted into steam before they could reach the burning structures. ----- A tax - p a y e r o f th e V illag e se n d s us the following communication on the question of buying a second Steamer for tbis ■Village.— The meeting to decide tho m a tter will be held in M eech ’ s Hall, next Wednesday ev’g. We commend his views to a fair consideration: » One Steamer is n o t sufficient for the needs of this Tillage. Before one Steamer could be p u t in operation and bose properly laid from the Creek, a fire in the crowded portion of Main Street, (or Broad st., or any of the adjacent streets,) would be •under such headway that it would be beyond c o n trol; and tbe one Steamer could n o t be placed a t any of tbe street reser voirs for tbe reason that the watersupply would soon become exhausted. On the contrary, by having tmo Steamers there would he no such difficulty; it could be understood between the companies, or regulated by districts, that the one whose house was nearest the fire should take tbe street reservoir n earest the fire, and be supplied b y the other placed near the Creek, Thus the supply of water could be made inex haustible, and with 1,000 more feet of hose tho whole Village could be protected. Then tho inhabitants of this Village will have an assur ance of safety, and can feel positive that at whatever time in W inter orSummer their places of business or dweUings m ay take fire or he tiu-eatened, the Fire Department is p repared to extinguish the flames. A Fire Department known to he in good order, well and effloientiy organized, and with experienced officers in command, is n o t only a eommercial advantage to a town, but i t materially decrease? the rates of insurance and invites a n increase of business from other parts of the country. A complete Fire Department is as much a part and parcel of tbe greatness and prosperity of a community as its official conduct. No town o r Tillage is complete without it. A lire organization which is not thoroughly well equipped is not much better than none a t all. To have an efficient department, effective co operation and honorable rivalry among its members are needed. The p resent Steamer is in the hands and under the control o f but a portion of tbe Department. Give the other portion of “ the Boys” equal privileges. Itm a y be said by some that anotlier tax at present is “burdensome.” In reply we say tkat tbe tax for another Steamer need not be levied until Spring:, to which time fuU credit will be given by any manufacturer, or the trustees may be authorized to negotiate a loan, and the amount may be paid or collected in a scries of years ; •say $1,000 each y e a r ; then we can.have a good andeffleent Fire Department, and keep up a better organization. Such a Department will he an honor to o ur Village, and a better protec- tio n in tim e o f need. ___ I n In c lian a , a lo c a l p a p e r a t t r i b uted a scarcity of small change to its being sent to the heathen thro’ church ooUections. ___ E e v .

Now, on the very site, nestling under the shad ows Of Black Head, is a much larger vlUago of neat, new cottages, amid ample grounds, all telling of taste, cultivation and prosperity. It is pleasant to reflect th a t the cheerfuld-wellings, tho sloping lawns, the briglit, green grass and ■ the ■waving^ flowers m a y symbolize the brighter homes which the village fathers have found a t the end o f their weary journey over the D ark Biver and beyond the pearly gates. A c o zy little cottage at the W est end, in the midst of a dense grove, was the residence of N irem S tone , who k e p t the village’store. The beauty and grandeur wliich n ature h ad strewn aronud his native place were stamped upon his soul, and h e was an artist o f much m erit. H e was very quiet and retiring, genial and refined, and, In fine, my bean-ideal of the Christian gen- tlertan. A lpheus W ebster , who owned tbe Forge MUly was one of those old-fashioned millers who never took a grain of toll mote than the law allowed. He was a plain, •unas suming man, of flue sense, ■well-informed,could say a good thing and enjoy i t with others,when there was occasion. At tbe site of Mr. lYeb- ster’s oid mill, tlie stream poured over a rocky precipice of thirty or forty feet into a beautiful pool, whore the speckled trout delighted to gather, and from whose clear waters only p a tience and skill could lure them. The falling stream, the immense rooky amphitheater and the crystal pool, made the scene one of sur passing beauty. The old mill was burned some years ago, and in its cheerfnl thrifty appear ance tbe new one is in. keeping with its sur roundings. While it is the province o f these papers to speak of persons and things of the past, I must say that th e new mill is a notice able Improvement upon the old, and the new mUler foHows in tbe footsteps of h is iUnstnous predecessor. J oel and I saac C urtis were proprietors of the clock factory, a ricketty old building of four stories and an attic,with ricketty old stairs leading to each. I never saw the old building but I expected every moment that it would top ple over into tho foaming waters of the gorge below. .In my time, tbe clock factory was mostly deserted, or a dusty, weird looking chamber might be occupied by a solitary artl- san, of whom I remember A j >> i ison W ebster at bis turning-lathe, and B enjamin B ement at something else. Mr. W ebster has passed be- yond my k e n ; of Mr. Bement I wiU speak soon. A^the time of which I write, the business of clock making was passing into other hands,the brothers Curtis and Mr. Bement were well stricken in years, their fingers htid lost their canning, and the old factory was almost given over to the owls and hats. There were my bojSsh spooks and ghosts—and X managed to visit tbe old rookery with plenty jf good com- pany. The Messrs. Cnrtis were good m en and true i tlioy knew their business anil attenflea to its details, they held the respect o f those aroand them, as accorded to those who did their duty as good citizens and good men. Years have passed since they launched o ut upon the g reat ocean where time is not measured, and they rest in H is hands who pitieth our infirmities I’evcn as a father pitieth his own children.” Some years ago, after a d reary midnight ride of fifteen miles, I reached a lonely house amid the mountains of Olive, in an adjoiningnonnty. The place was desolate enough; i t w as a bitter ■Winter n ig h t ; sickness and suffering were rev elling th e r e ; the angel of death h ad made two visits, and threatened to return. All this was brought about by the fumes of a kerosene lamp which was nsed as a night lamp, and turned down low, filling the place with a deadly poison. This was the dreadful “spotted fever,” of which we have heard so much,and for which we know of n o remedies better than fresh air, warm frictions and pure brandy. Soon after I entered the house, a high,old-fashioned clock Struck the hour of two. These pleasant sounds, and a bright, wood fire, in an open fire-place, wore the only indications of cheer which the place afforded. I looked up a t the face of the old clock, and there was the name o f Joel Cur tis. In a moment tlie old clock factory was again before m e ; there were the towering rocks, the deep gorge, the pluDglng_strcam,the hcantiful pool and the darting trout. The bit ter reaUties o f the p resent were forgotten,whUe my soul held high carnival amid the welcome visions of tbe past. Isaac and Joel CurtD manufactured the town clock which pointed tbe passing hours by day, and toEed them by night, through many years, for the good people of Cairo. I remember when the clock was b rought to the Village to be p u t in its place. There was some difflenity in ob taining the funds to p a y for it, and i t was feared that Mr. Curtis would bo obliged to keep i t upon h is hands. “ Well,” said he, “if Cairo can’t have a town cioek,Scieuceville can.” This was a new nam e for the Forge, but i t did not adhere. The old clock is still and motionless now, as the cunning fingers that wrought it, and its iron tongne is voiceless and silent as theirs. E u p u s and E eu b e n B yington hold promi nent places in these reminiscences of the Forge. They were n o t brothers ; I know not even that they were relatives. The former was a retiring man w ith a deep fund of quiet h u m o r ; the lat ter was always ready with a harmless jest and a h earty laugh. liookbaokupontbelivesand •characters of these men of old, and wonder whether, in those days, there was really so lit tle evil in the world, or whether my young eyes failed to detect it ? A son of Eufns Byington occupies tbe old homestead at the Forge. He was the companion of my b o y h o o d ; he is the friend of my declining years—and God g rant that his good will and his kindly offices may follow me to the end. Benjamin Bement was a m y stery; with abil ities and acquirements that would shine id any society,he lived ajid died a t the F orge a humble, unpretending clock maker. Why, with his af fectionate and refined nature, he remained a bachelor, was the w o n d e r.^H a d he given over a fair form into the arms of death ? or was he the victim of a jilt or a flirt ? He sought no companions but b is newspaper and bis snnff- box; and, thronghont many long years, every Saturday brought Mm to Cairo, a fter tbe 'Pitta- fleld Sun and a quarter of a pound of L obil - lard ’ s Maecaboy snuff. He read no otberpa- per, and used n o other brand of snuff. The Sun was a n old paper forty years ago ; I won der If i t shines still ? Throughout a long ac quaintance with Mr. Bement, I never knew him by word or deed to compromise any char- actcristic of a Christian p^entlemon. W hether his remains rest in this vicinity, or whether they were taken to his New England home, I know not. Here he foliowed the pathway of gentleness and peace, and after a life of won- derful p u rity and truth he was gathered unto Ms fathers. I have spoken before of Col. J . H. B owman , ■and will only add hero that tho grass Is green and fresh over his peaceful grave, as his mem ory is grateful and welcome to tbe hearts of the friends who outlive him. Hero end my re membrances of the old residents o fjthe Forge. It is pleasant to recall tho forms of such a gen eration of men ; and now we will replace tho earth carefnlly over their resting places, and pray God to look in mercy upon our own buried talents a n d our shortcomings. I often wonder i f Black Head cares greatly about the mnltitudes who are Uving and dying at his feet ?, One can hardly judge from his appearance ; b n t often when LaM adre returns from errands of charity and benevolence, his nigged face smooths down Into approving smiles, and ho whispers gently in her native tongue, “M iqulredaesposa.” Notwithstanding the burden of years which rests upon Black Head, and all Lis miseries and trials, whenever he epeaks gently and his lips brighten with a smile, h is grim face is radiant with beauty and good ckeer. This morning, Tuesday, Nov. 7, his brow is capped with snow, a fleece of pink and white clouds hangs over the snowy cover ing, and tbe early sun lights up all into a halo of wonderful grace and beauty.* .w.

We arrived in 8ah Francisco about a week since, h ating made the entire trip pleasantly and safely, without a single detention, or being an honr behind time on any part of tbe route. After resuming our journey at Ogden, the junction of tho Union and Central Pacific, o u r route until we reacued the Sierra Nevadas, was somewhat monotonous and uain- teresting. F o r many hours during the last day, however, both in Nevada and California, wo •were much interested in the operations of the miners, who were busily at work, taking ont the white and yeUow m etal from the different mines n ear the road. After reaching the sum m it of the Sierras, the same grand and wild scenes as we saw on the Union Pacifle at Echo and Weber were before us. Indeed, so f a r as towering mountains, deep gorges, lofty preci pices, sparkling waterfalls and crystal lakes are concerned, that portion of the Sierra Nevadas about Summit Station is considered decidedly the most interesting of any like scenery on tbe entire route. “ rounding cate horn .” After leaving “ Gold Run” Station we descend the mountain rapidly, and rush along amid mining claims, by the side of large ditches, through the deep gravel cuts, and under tile grassy hUl sides, until on the left we catch a glimpse of the American Elver, foaming and dashing along In a narrow gorge, full 1,500 feet beneath ns. Farther on we see the North F o rk of the river dashing down the steep mountain at right angles with the main stream, leaping from waterfall to waterfall, its sparkling cur rent looking like, sunbeams. Now we pass through one of those deep cuts, only to he met with in these mountains, when suddenly the river breaks On our view again, and this time right under ns, as it seems, but much farther down below ns. So close are we to tbe brink Of the precipice that it seems as though we could jump from the p latform Into the stream below, wbicb has more the appearance of a winding thread of silver in, the bottom of the chasm, 2,500 feet below us. And this is Cape Horn, which no traveler over the great Pacifle Kailroad will ever forgot. SNOW SHEDS AND TUNNELS. The tunnels and snow sheds of the Central Pacifle are of great Interest to those passing over this g reat highway. These sheds are solid structures, built of sawed and round timber, completely roofing in the road f o r many miles. VYben the road was finished there were 23 miles of shed built, at an expense of $10,000 per mUe. ■With the additions since made, the line reaches about 45 miles, which includes tbe en tire length of the deep snow line on the divid ing ridge. 'When we consider that along the summit the snow falls from 16 to SO feet deep, during a wet Winter, we can imagine the n e . cessity and importance of these structures. By this means the track is as clear from snow in W inter a s Summer. The mountain avalanches which sweep down the cliffs in the Spring, bear- ing everything before them, pass over the slop- iiig roofs of tho snow Bheds, and plunge into the chasms below, -while beneath the rushin^y mass tho cars glide smoothly along, the pas- senders hardly -knowing but •what they are in the midst of a n enormous tmmel. And, h y tlie way, some of the longest tunnels on the road, are so closely connected with these sheds, that the traveler can hardly tell -when the cars enter or leave a tunnel. The summit tunnel, the lo u ^ s t of the number, is 1,059 ft. long^, the Others rauging fvom 100 to 900 feet in length, J . L .

Address NATHANIEL BIAYFAIR, tjanl Brooklyn, N. Y. • The Cause and Cure c f Consumption. Tho primary ca’use of Consumption is derange ment of the digestive organs. This derangement produces deficient nutrition aud asBimilation. By assimilation, I mean that process by which the nu triment of the food is converted into blood, and thence into the solids of the body. Persons with ■witnc ------- - - - _ „ assimilation. The very first thing w — cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased these organs so and then •gai ,y action. For this purpose, the surest aud best remedy is Schenck’s Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the stomach aud bowels of all the dead and morbid slime that is causing disease and decay in the whole system. They -will clear out the liver of all diseased bile that has accumulated there, and arouse it up to a new and healthy action, by which natural and healthy bile is secreted. The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus cleansed by the \use of Schcnck’s DJandrake P ills; but there remains in.the stomach an e:&cc8B of acid, the organ is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bowels, the lacteals are weak, and requiring strength and sup port. It is in a condition like this that Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most valuable rem edy ever discovered. It is alkaline, aud its use will neutralize all excess of acid, making the stomach sweet and fresh; it will ^ve permanent tone to this important organ, create a good, hearty appe- tite, and prepare the system for the first process of agood digestion, andultimately make good, healthy, living blood. After this preparatory treatment, what remains to cure most cases of Oonsumption is the free and persevering 'use of Schenck^s Pulmonic Syrup. The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system, purifies the blood, and is readily absorbed into the circvlation, and thence distributed to tbe diseased I'ungs. There it ripens allmorbid matters, whether in tne form of abscesses or tubercles, and then as- LOf 1 len, ties of Schcnck’s .. . and ca’vitie's ore healed up sound, cured. The essential thing to be done in curing Consump tion is to get up a good appetite and good digestion, so that the body -will grow in flesh and get strong. If a person has diseased lungs, a cavity or abscess there, tho cavity cannot heal, the matter cannot ripen, so long as the system is below par. ^Vbat is necessary to cure isSi new order of things—a good appetite, a good nutrition, the body to grow in flesh and get fat; then Nature is helped, the cavities •will heal, the matter •will ripen and be thro’wn off in large quantities, and the person regain health and strength. This is the true and only plan to cure Consumption, and if a person is very bad, if the lungs are not entirely destroyed, or even if one lung is entirely gone, i f there is enough vitality left in the other to heal up, there is hope. Z have seen many persons cured •with only one sound lung live and enjoy life to a good old age. This is what Schenclt’e Medicines will do to cuta Consumption. They will clean out the stomach, sw'ceten and strengthen it, get up a good digestiop, and give Nature the assistauco she needs to dear the system of all the disease that is in the lungs, whatever tho form may be. - It is important that, while using Schenck’s Bledl- cincs, care should be exercised not to take cold; keep in-doora iu cool and‘damp •weather; avoid night-air, and take out-door exercise only in a ge nial and warm sunshine. I -wish it distinctly understoodthatwhen Irccom- mend a patient to he careful in regard to taking cold while 'Using my medicines, 1 do so for a speciiU. rea son. A man who has but partially recovered from the effects of a ba& cold is far m6rc liable to a re lapse than one who has been entirely cured, aud it is precisely the some in regard to Consumption. So long as the lungs are not perfectly healed, just so long is there imminent danger of a full return of the disease. Hence it is that I so strenuously cau tion pulmonary patients against ex;posing them selves to an atmosphere that is not genial and pleas ant. Confirmed Consumptives’lungs are a mass of sores, which the least change of atmosphere irill in flame. The grand secret of my success with my medicines consists in my ability to subdue inflam- matiod instead of provoking it, as many of the fac ulty do. An inflamed lung cannot with safety to the patient bo exposed to tho biting blasts of 'Winter or tho chilling -winds of Spring or Autumn. It slionia bo carefully shielded fiom all irritating in- fiuences. The utmost caution should be observed in this particular, as without it a cure under almost any circumstances is an impossibility. The person should bo kept on a wholesome aud nutritious diet, aud all the medicines continued until tho body has restored to it the natural quan tity of flesh and strength. I was myself cured by this treatment of the worst kind of Consumption, and have lived to get fat and hearty these many years, with one lung mostly gone. I liave cured thousands since, and very many have been cured by this treatment whom I have never seen. About the 1st of October I expect to take piOSSCS- Sion of my new building at the North-East corner of Sixth and Arch Streets, where I shall be pleased to give advice to all who may require it. Full directions sccompany ail my remedies, so that a person in any part of the world can be readily cured by a strict observance of the same. J. H. SoHENCK, M. D., Bliiladelphia. JOHN F.
