Two incipient footmen of the colored race, oue
belonging to a living physician, the other to a
physician deceased, met at the market house. The
one belonging to the living physician said to his

One day a person walked coolly into the office of
a phvsician and took a seat. "Do you wish advice,

have some notion of leaving my profession and
taking up your trade."

XbX-CV;!MITTAL. Some year ago there wasa
good deal of excitement among the good people in
a certain town iu ' county. Vermont, on the
subject of religion, and almost every man in the
phu e was more or less awakened to a sense of his
sinfulness, and made a public deelarafioii of his in
tent'oii to h ad a new life. Among the rest were
three of the principal men ofthe village, whom w
v.' ill call Mr 31., B. and (I , who being all present
at one of the meetings, took part in the proceed

arose next, and spoke of his sins and wickedness
in quite as strong terms as the others had done, but !
coming to the 'restitution' clause, he remarked
with a caution characteristic of himself
"If there is any man that 1 have defrauded, I
shall be ifiost happy to sit down and talk it over
with him ! "
A Western petti fog er once broke out in the
following indignant strain: "Sir, we're enough for
ye, the hullofye. .Mi' and my client can't never
be intimidated or tyranized over, mark that ! And
sir. just so sure as this court decides against us,
we'll file a writ of propagander, sir, and wc "
Here he was interrupted by the opposite counsel,
who wanted to know what he meant by a writ of
propagander. M3I can by a writ of propagander,

'In the old North State lives a certain John
Long, who draws a long bow when ever he has any
thing to tell, and his character for truth and
veracity has been below zero for many years. Cap

outrageous stories, that he t ,:d to him, in a pet :
u If you make me believe one of your lies again
in a month, I'll give you fifty dollars '.'
"John protended to be quite hurt by the offer,
and went off. A few days afterward he was rid

vLeii the Captain called out to him:
,s 'I say '. hello, Johnny '. stop and tell us a lie or
two this morning !'
"John rode on, but cried out most dolefully :
'No time for telling lies now: brother Jiniinv h is
just been killed iu the machine, and I'm going for
the old folks." On he went.
"Captain Johnson ordered his horse, and rode
over to see the dead man and offer his services,
but found him alive and well, ginning cotton, and
in no danger of the machine. Just then John
rode up and demanded the fifty dollars. The Cap

man who has properly regulated himself may be
Considered as in the prime of life. His matured
strength of constitution renders him almost
impervious to the attacks of disease, and experience
has given his judgment the soundness of almost
infallibility. His mind is resolute. firm, and equal;
all his functions are iu the highest order, he
assumes tue mastery over business: bunds un a
competence to the foundation he has laid in early
manhood, and parses through a period of life
attended by many gratifications. Having gone a
year or two past sixty, he arrive at a critical period
in the road of existence, the river of death Hows
before him. and he remains at a stand still. But
athwart this river is a viaduct called ' The Turn of
Life," which, if crossed in safety, leads to the
valley ot "old age' round which the river winds
and then fiows beyond without boat or causeway to
ciTect its passage. The bridge is. however, con
structed of fragile materials, and it depends upon
how it is trodden, whether it bend or break. Gout,
apoplexy, and other bad characters also are iu the
vicinity to waylay the traveller, and thrust him
from the pas; but let him gird up his loius and
provide himself with a fitting staff, he mav trudsre
on in safety with perfect composure. To quit
metaphor, "The Turn of Life" is a turn cither into
a prolonged walk or into the grave. The system
and powers having reached their utmost expansion; !
now begin either to close like flowers at sunset, or
break down at once. One injudicious stimulant
a single fatal excitement, may force it beyond its '
strength whilst a careful supply of props, and the
withdrawal of all that tends to fore a plant, will
sustain it in beauty and iu vigor until night ha
entirely set in.

dibase is making great ravages amongst the hogs
iu many part? of the country, it is very desirable f
that a preventive or remedy could be discovered.
I have lately heard of a fanner iu the Western
District who 'lost several of his hogs with this
disease. Nothing he conld do, seemed to have !
any effi ct. At length, as the ca:- seemed desperate,
he had recourse to a desperate remedy, lie boiled
as much poke root as he could hold in his hand, and i
stirred in Indian meal and made a musn, wnicu ne
gave to his hogs every day for a while The result
was that he lost none after he commenced this
treatment. Whether this proved a preventive or
not, it is certainly worth a trial. E hope all will
make known their experience on this subject.

I months in succession I was unable to move either hand

North and South; none of them effected anything like a
j permanent cure, and many failed to give even teuiporary
relief. Hearing of your Rheumatic Atiuihilator, as a
last resort I procured' two or three bottles, used it ac
cording To direction?, and I am happy to certify that in
a remarkably short time it has entirely cured me. efl'ect-
ing snch a thorough cure too, that 1 believe there is not
