A WORD TO 7AB.SflT.SR3 SOHS.
You have sometlfing to be proud and to
boost of. The farm is the keystone to every
industrial pursuit. When it succeeds all
prosper;; when it fails, all flat;, Dou't think
yon can't be a great man because you are
the son of a farmer. Washington,. Webster
and Clay were farmer's sous, but while they
Udled they studied. So do ye. Buy a good
hook, one at a time, read anil digest it, and
then another.
Call and see iiw and look over books.
No other Machine can accomplish the
kind of sewing stated in Nos. 3, 4, O, and 6.
Parties using a family sewing machine want
a Whole Machine, one with all the improve
ments. It is to last a LIFETIME, and therefore one
is wanted that will do the most work and do it
the best : and this machine can do several kinds
of sewing not done on any other machine, besides
doing every kind that all others can do.
The American or Plain Sewing Machine.
(Without the button-hole parts), does all that is

SKETCHES OF FRENCH REVOLU-
I TIONS.
The First Revolution.
I Many causes combined to effect the
overthrow of the rronarch y in France in
the Uuer quarter of the last century. "The
excesses of the crown, the grinding tyran
ny of the nobles, the spread of infidel
principles, the example of America
and the awakening conscionanees that
''de vine right of kings," was a gross im
position all impelled to the great denoue
ment on the iOih of August, 1792, when
Palace of the Tuileries was entered by
the populace of Paris and the reign of
Lou U XVI and his beautiful consort,
Marie Antionette, ended forever. The
beginning of the first revolution might be
said to date from the action of the king in
the granting (May, 1789,) M. Neckers's
proposition of a double vote to the third
estate (the Commons), so as to balance
the votes of the iMber two houses, compos
ed of the clergy and nobility. What was
called National; Assembly sprung from
this cause, and by the constitution which
they formed they changed ihe old French
monarchy into a representative republic.
They suppressed feudal jurisdictions, man
orial dues and fees, the littles of nobility,
tithes, co n ven to and corporations of trade ;
they confiscated the property of the Church
and uprooted things generally. Th
Kitigendeavortal in vain to stop this head
long career by the use of his veto, bnt th;
revolution as fnshing ut lull speed, and
outbreaks occurred in lhe province, while
every day the pari ians of the King was
growing fewer? and weaker. In June,
1792, ati insurrection took place in Paris,
followed Lv another in August, and the
Palace of the Tuih'ries was entered and
all its inmates massacred. The King was
; deposed ; he atd his family sent prisoners
to the 1 emplH,ftr;ed by the National (con
vention and circuted on the 2 1st ni Jan
uary, 1793. jMarie Antoimete followed
him to the scaffold in October of the same
(i nard s joined the people, the Hotel de
Ville was taken and retaken, the Ixnyre
and Tuileries attacked and on the 30th
July the revolution was virtually ended
and Louis Phillipe was proclaimed King
of France.
The Eighth Revolution
was the meoSorable one of 1848, when
"the Ciliaen King" had to fly incontis
nently to England without his shaving
utensils. His reign was a period of cor
ruption in high places. The heart of the
Lnation was alienated from their Ring, and
wnen a inning aisturoance in February,
1848, was aggravat d into ft popular riot,
Louis Phillippe felt that be s'ood alone
and unsupported as a constitutional King.
He shrank from employing soldiers against
his people and he fell in consequence.
He fled in disguise from Paris to the coast
of Normandy, and, taking ship, found re
fuge again iu Enghrud. There was a
republic once again. L itntrtine was the
man of the m incur, but 1.;.-. popularity
was short lived, and in the general elec
tion of 1849 Louis Napoleon walked over
the course.
The Ninth Revolution
was inaugurated in the bloody and cele
brated coup d'etat of December, 1851, and
Louis Napoleon made himself Emperor

atchy). governed by a Director, to a Con
sulship oj thr , of whom Napoleon B mli
pane was firat.:. The (all of the Directorial
government in fl 800, though ever so ir
regularly brought abour, was certainly not
a subject ot regret to the great majority
of the French people, who had neither
respeO for it nor any confidence in it.
The piofligacy and dishonesty of that
government were no'orioos. Napoleon
was now pup ni' nently on the scene,
and his power from year to year grew
more absolute, until finally, in 18U4, a
motion was made iu the Tribunate to be-
stoy upon him the tittle of the Emperor of
the r rench, with the hereditary succession
in his family. I The proposition was sub
mitted to the votes of the people, but be
fore they were collected Napoleon assum
ed the title of Emperor at St. Cloud ou
the ISih of May, 1804.
The Third Revolution.
was marked by colossal wars on the part
of Napoleon. I He squandered the blood
and treasure of France en a scale of un
precedented extravagance. The liberty and
equality so ostentatiously established by
the Republic disappeared, and however
much of the glory of the war Empire
reaped it succeeded effectually in emascu
lating ths m n'al and physical manhood of
the nation.
The Fourth Revolution.
came with the defeat of Napoloen before
Paris, in the spring 1814, and his retire
ment to Elba. This gave a' show to the
Bourbon party to welcome Louis XVI II
to the throne of his ancestors. Louis came

ligence wiih which it was pei formed, and
the result as stated, accords well with my
preconceived ideas of the pathology upon
the subject. The disease iu human patho

to the point, or to the cause of the com

for it must be recognized, or detected in
its primary or forming stage, or vain will
be the treatment when the brain has be

The primary seat or cause of the disease
is doubtless in the kidneys, but there is
every reason to presume it to have a still
prior one in tbe stomsch and bowels, say
digestive organs ; and the disordered con
dition of these, producing a similar, or
vitiated one in the secretions and excre

where The treatment has been instituted
within twenty-fonr hours after the develop

first place discard all ideas of this being
an iuflamatory affection 'of the brain and

Apply this ftlong the whole course nf the 1

mode of ironing, a common smoothing
iron, well heated. Continue this for ten
or 6ften minutes until you have well stim
ulated the spine. Iu (he meantime give
quinine in heroic dosiie, to be repeated
every two or three hours until all symp
toms are overcome. Follow each duse of
biotuida of potasrinru "combined in with
an ordiuary dose of solid extract Hyoe
cyainus. The use of the bromide is to
control reflexatioii and the doses should
be regulated according to tbe h- ad and
spinal symptoms as ihs is dependent ou

modus operandi of the quine or bromide
will be readily understood by the intelli

use a fly blister or opiates in the oatset of

THE WALWORTH TRAGEDY-
CONFLICT OF TESTIMONY.
In referring to the mkse of reports
which have gained circulation in connec
tion with the murder of Mr. Walworth In
New York by his son, the Washington
Republican says : !
"There is nothing so dificalt to get ht
through human testimony as human char
acter. At nrst we were told lhaf the lota
Mr. Walworth was habitually dissipated,
passionate and even brutal and now per
sons who knew him well say he was not
intemperate, sud that be was a genial and
eonsiderate geuth in va in all his wsys.
Man is snch a eoiitiadiction aud terlimoty
ia so colored by prejudices and motives
that the public will never know what
msnner of man 31 r. Walworth was.'
The New York lh raid pbbliihes a num
ber of letters from the deceased to his
particular friend, Mr. Morris Phillips,
editor of the New York Jlome Journal,
wfrich indicate thst Walwirth was n man
of great Ihcrsry industry, and bad hn
honorable ambition for fame as a writer,
besides a kindly and grateful disposition.

The premonitory symptoms in the case. of
my horse were los.i of appetite, with slitg- :
gishness of motion. There wa no fevi-r.
On the 3rd iustaut, I drove eight miles to
visit a patient, but allowed my horse to
walk the entire distance. When I wfent
t take him from lhe stable to return j he
lefused to come out, and exhibited con
siderable temper, and when forced toe m -out
he pressed hard against the right ro r
lintel, mi all the way 1 had.great ilifficul
tv ta keep him in the road, the tendency
being to move to the right. Several t'Sne
I was compelled to lea I him by the bit.
This tendency continued throughout the
attack. When loosed in my iuclorurel he
would walk in a circle, always to the
rieht.
For the first twelve hours there was no
indication of much paiu. There were
paroxysms of restlessness, which were
succeeded by complete quiet the inter
val lasting for about two hours generally.
After this pain seemed to grow more acute,
and I discovered that during a paroxysm
the horse took no notice of any object
whatever, but would go against a tree or
stump, or, iuto a ditcb. When the pain
subsided this symptom disappeared, which
satisfied me that the horse was not really
blind, as is vulgarly supposed. There
wax constipation of the bowels and tbe
fcaces had a very pecular glazed appear
ance. There was entire suppression of
urine, the kidney's failing to act, I think,
as I eould discover no flue tat ion in the
bladder.

death of this fallen enemy ; bat there was

that for the moment washed away

seems decidedly in correspondence with I
the symptoms and appearances, as ex- i
nrepsed by the writer, a few remarks as
to the treatment might be appropriate,

I will allow this to suggest the treatment
and let it suffice to say ;hat when the ani

IF YOU PLEASE.
Boys, do you ever think bow much real
courtesy will do for j'ou ? Some of the
greatest men were ever cautious iu this
reaped. When the Duke of Wellington
was sick, tbe last he took was a little tea.
On his servant binding it to him in a
saoctr, and asking if he would have it,
the duke replied, "Yes, if you please."
These were bis last words. How much
kindness and courtesy are expressed by
them! He who had commanded great
armies, and was long accustomed to the
tone of authority, did not overlook tbe
small courtesies of life. Ah, bow many
boys do ! What a rode tone of command
they often use to their little brothers and
sisters, and sometimes to their mothers.
They order so. That is ill-bred, and
shows, to say the least, a want of thought.
In all your home talk remember "if yon
please" will make you better served than
all the words in the whole dictionary. Do
not forget three little words "If yon
please."
