You see A plain covered with yellow, withered grass, a typo of lifeless, sapless desolation. Yon look at it through the dark winter days, and, if you ar? sad and fanciful, you weave shroud after shroud for your own dead hopes | from these mourning garments of ? nature. Suddenly there comes a ! breath of warm spring air. Some- j how, you scarce know how, tho : yellow of the grass seems less lifeless ?-not so much the hue of death as the living yellow of the sunlight. I That seems at times to lend it a tint of chrysopasc, the gold shaded off I into a tender hue of green. It deep- j ens and glistens, till some morning after a warm spring shower you loc>k abroad, and lo! your desolate plain I has bathed in the "fountain of youth." It is clad in tho greeuest of festal robes, adorned with star-liko ilowero, and gems quivering and glistening like diamonds of the very first water. You aro surprised, and perhaps ? little hurt at this indeco? rous haste of Mother Earth, to got rid of her iusiguia of mourning. Sho can be sympathetic with our sorrows no more, and you aro dis? posed to resent ns a personal insult, j tho fact that she has cast all caro to the spring winds. You look out with the lordly sense of a superior i sentiment, which is independent of | all surroundings, and hug your own Borrows closer to your hearts. But beforo many days tho soft! attraction of the outer lifo prevails. ! The 6tir and hum of growth, tho perpetual miracles of life and beauty, from death and decay, address them? selves to your senses and whisper their mysterious secrets in your ear. The inner mourning chamber of j your life must bc trebly locked, if the ! precious hopes of the beautiful sea- j son cannot win their way in. And j once in, how they liaug tho desolate room with garlands; chuso out :iie shadows, and whisper lessons of pa? tients, because, iu "His eyes, are yo not of more account than the Howers of thc field?" You stand under tho drifting npplo blossoms and look up at tue sky I overhead, lt is a sapphire arch of promise, whose profouuu peace seems to span the "mystic gulf twixt God and m.in." You look down to the renewed anti glorified earth, and your ! whole sole rises and swells in a sud- ] den fervor of love nod thanksgiving. ' And what if poor and desotate? ! nave not tho dead wastes blossomed into beauty, and to you, too, may i not God say: "To the night cometh morning, and to winter thu glory of j spring." Royalty is by no means exempt from toil and trouble. Napoleon and Victoria have been obliged to read each other's books. Ar? Englishman, named Alfred Oldstock, leaped intet tho waters of tho Hudson, from a Jersey City ferry? boat, a day or two since, and when fished out by tho deck-hands, said ho had taken tho oold bath under the impression that he was "retreating from the Fenians. " Ho was suffering from an attack of delirium tremens. In excavating to repair a leaky gas pipe at the Cheater (Mass.) naval hospital,' a fow days ago, one of the workmen struck a atone with his pick, the spark causing an explosion, ?which threw down twenty feet of brick wall, and injured one man standing near. A man named Faulkner, nearly eighty years, old, arrived iu Cleve? land, Ohio, a few days since, having walked the entire' distance from Con? necticut. Ho declined a pass, when starting to return, saying that he felt safer on foot thau in tho cars. Suicide has become epidemic in Sau Francisco. During tho last year some hundreds of bodies, it is said, have been found floating in the bay, and in each case there seemed to bo a certainty that suicide was the cause of drowning.

Tho wear and tear of life tcllB npon us all more or less. What are wo but machines? Tho vital principle is the motivo power that keeps tho human engine in motion; but aa beams, pistons, connection pipes, condensers and boilers wear out, so do organs, muscles, tisoues and all tho com? pound parts of that marvellous piece of work called man. Tho mechanism of the body requires to bo repaired and strengthened justas much as the mechanism employed to grind corn, or spin cotton, or weave cloth. Steam cannot drive a broken shaft, or impel a drum or a wheel that is out of gear; nei? ther can tho vital force act through a paralyzed limb, or an inert organ. Aro you wearing out? Do you feel that any one of your organs-your stomach, liver, bowels, nervous system, or any other essen "I part of your organization, falters in it ! work? If so, repair the damage with tho mof-t powerful, vet harmless, of invitrorants, CIOSTETTER'S 8TOMACI? BITTERS. Remember that debility is tho "beginning of the end"-that the climax of all weakness ia a universal paralysis of the system, and that such paralysis is tho immediato precursor of death. Don't wait for diseaao to commit its ravages before you commence tho strengthening process. Keep tho whole body in a vigorous condition by prevent? ing, as far as possible, the inroads of do cay.

I HAVE PATENTED, and now desire to introduce, an important improvement in the construction of ARTIFI? CIAL DENTURES, whereby tho strength, reliability and facility of repair, pertain? ing to swaged plato work, is communicated to moulded met alic or vnlcanizable base. Strong Plate Teeth as firmly attached to the base as if solderod to swaged plate, aro. by this process, substituted for those specially designed for moulded baso. By their use tho operator ia left free to ex crciso his own judgment in their arrange? ment, and finds himself no longer confined to tho samene&s of the present style of blocks, or single teeth weakened by carv? ing for moulded work. No now appliances are required in this process. It is easily acquired by any one familiar with either moulded or swaged work. It gives to the operator confidence in the reliability of his cases, exempting him from tho disappointment and per? plexity often attendant on his most faith? ful efforts. It renders partial cases as reli? able as full sets, and, consequently, wiU tend to ameliorate tho present deplorable practice of extracting every tooth, Bound or unsound, which stands in thc way of the latter. Tho method has boon thoroughly tested, and is now submitted to tho profession with tho assurance that it will be found to ful lill all that is claimed for it. Its results aro highly artistic, very beautiful, and af? ford the utmost satisfaction to operator and patient.
