THE LONG ISLAND jFAKMER—THUESDAY, JULY «, 1871 7 DUPLICATIONS. flgrlei/'a Lady's Book for July 1b at hand j al,end t>f time. It is every thus with rndey. He is a live publisher, fully coinpre- wmling the tastes and wants df these for liom it is his province to cater. Appreciat- . their anxiety to keep up with the rest of Jw world in the styles of dress, he hastens to i!y before them the latest fashions—presenting them *n (he most attractive manner, by nieaus f handsomely executed colored plates, ac- ^mpanied by descriptive cuts, diagrams, etc, The reading matter and other features of the Rook are n’s<> °f an interesting and entertain- i,ii> character. Terms, $3.00 per year. Ad- • c,.q L. A. Godey, Publisher, Philadelphia. ■ler's Monthly for July leads off with >u, illustrated article, by J.. T. Beatlley, oi Philadelphia.” The next arti. le is a very interesting account of Mr. W. H. floiloce’s “Jaupts in Japan,” in which some valuable information is given concerning out- cf-ihe-way portions of that marvelous islands, Tiie pictures accompanving this article :are very curious and suggestive. The most im portant essay in the present number is Horace gushnell’s able discussion of “Free-Trade and protection,” in Which this distinguished writer and thinker presents what seems to be e very common-sense aud judicious view of a much-mooted question, hlisr Louisa Bush- ntll follows her father with a charming ac count of a “Fete-day at Malmaison,” which will be read with peculiar interest at this time. A most curious article is R. W. Wrigbts’s “Samson’s Riddle Solved—tbe Lion-cup versa* The Lion cub,” by which the learned writer appears’1 actually to have discovered tbs solution of Samson’s celebrated riddle, which has puzzled the world for three tbou- spd years. Mrs. Richardson’s timely and sen sible “Plea for Chinese Labor” will meet with the approbation of every American house wife; aud “Back-Log Studies,” by Charles Dudley Warner, is one of the most witty, thoughtful, and suggestive papers of the writer of this generation nearest to Charles Lamb, first, there is McDonald's grandly beautiful Wilfrid Cumbermede; then we have a capital Fourth of July story, “Tho Gunpowder Plot,” by Edward Eggleston, unique in plot and thrilling in narrative, With a spirited illustra-J tion-by Victor Neblig; a tale by Julia C. R.’ Dorr, with the taking title of “My Husband’s First Love;” and .“Edsou’s Mother,” a quaint story by Susan Coollidge. The poetry is by R. H. Stodard, Miss M. A. Hopkins, and Thomas Dunn English, the latter furnish ing a successful study in the slave dialect, en titled \Cmsar Rowan.” The editorial depart ments are, as usual, very readable; in the “'Topics of the Time” are discussed “Three Pieces of the Woman Question,” “Louisville and School'Reform,” “Rather a Slim Beil gion,” and “The Legal-Tender Decision.” iu tho “Old Cabinet” we find “ Page’s Christ,” “'A Protest,” “ The Gypsy Camp,” and “Or ange Peels.” Iu “Home and Society” are pleasant papers on the “Pairing Season, ” “A Sheltering Arms,” “Midsummer Eve,” and “Roses.” “Culture and Progress Abroad” treats of Henry Parry Liddon, the celebrated English divine, and other subjects, and la \Culture and Progress at Home” there are notices of the Academy Exhibition and of new hooks. The “Etchings” consist of an other clever poem by Baker, “Up the Aisle,” •with exquisite illustrations by Miss Ledyurd, being a sequel to “ Love’s Young Dream,” and closing a number of Scribner’s which will form delightful reading for summer (days. Scribner & Co., New \York $3 a year. History ofthe War in Europe .—The re cent war between Germany and France aroused so much interest on tho part of onr people, that it was generally supposed at the time, tbat the earliest and best history of that great struggle, would be from the pen of an American author. The .National Publishing Co, of Philadelphia, have just issued a very complete and valuable history, bearing the above title. It is from the pen Of Mr. James D. McCabe, Jr., and is a handsomely bound volume of 800 octavo pages, illustrated with 150 snips, portraits, battle scenes, views of prominent localites, etc. It is written in a hold, vigorous style, and will, unquestionably, take rank as the standard history of the strug gle by An American writer. Mr. McCabe, has evidently studied bis subject deeply, for he writes as an historian, and not as a politician as one who places facts on record for the ver dict of future ages, and not as one who Seeks to win the favor of either the Germans or the French of to-day. The great charm of the work is its impartiality, its absolute fidelity to truth. His book fascinates while it instructs, for it tells in graphic aud eloquent language, the most wonderful story of modern times. He traces the causes of the war from their ori gin down to the beginning of hostilities; sets forth the diplomatic history of the prelude to “the war, with clearness; and states forcibly, and in detail the causes of the triumph of Ger many and tie failure of France. The narra tive of tbe great battles which opened the campaign, and hnrled the French back upon the interior of their own country; the effect of these reverses upon the French Nation; the frantic efforts to rescue the beaten army, and the terrible disaster of Sedan; the capture of the Emperor Napoleon and an entire army; the Revolution in Paris ; the rise and forma tion of the Republic; the flight of the Em press from Paris; the siege and surrender of HtrasWg and the frontier fortresses of France ; , the triumphal advance of the Ger- man armies to Paris; the slegeB of Metz and. Paris in detail; a full diary of events in Paris during the siege; the campaigns on the Loire and In other parte of France; the peace uegotlations; the surrender of Paris and the treaty ; the naval history of the formation of the great German Empire; the proclaiming of King William emperor, and tbe realization of German unity; the civil war and second siege of Paris, with its terrible scenes of bloodshed aud vandalism;—all these and other events of the war are related with a graphicness and oriliiancy'which render.this s work of unu- Bual value. The author goes deep into the Philosophy of the war, and r impresses his readers profoundly with the great lessons of the conflict The low price at which the book ia issued, brings it within tho reach of all, and no one fishing to keep abreast pf the times should -fail to read it. It Is published iu both Eng- •«sh and German, sold by subscription ohly, And agents We wanted, in every county. ^hicago, it is said, furnishes more “first dais” subjects for the dissecting tablo than nil the other cities in thh Union, There are about 4d veteran stage drivers in —Maine, The oldest 1* 81 yetu* old.

DIRECTIONS.—At the first approach of any such attack a single powder of the Cure will nt once divert tiie malady and remove every discomfort. Iu a moro advanced stage ofthe attack,three or four powdera may be necessary, repeated at moderate intervals until tiie desired effect be produced. If a single dose be taken withiut cltVct, it will be surely found, by repeating the same in twenty minutes, that the most violent attack will subside, and the patient be forthwith restored to their former health. As a tonic or febrifuge the powders are best taken in sherry or port wine. For headache, in a tablcspoonful of sweetened water. For debility or weakness accom panied with languor, one powder, taken, in sherry wine three times a day. W asuiqgton , D. O,, H o m e R k s i d g n c b , N e w R o c h e l l e , November 8th, 1870.
