In the deep dark eaves, 'mM the paths of the sea?
Do vou understand me now?"
thundered a country schoolmaster to an
Brchin, at whose head he threw an ink
Btand "I've got an inkling of what you
mean." replied the bov.
rv " Sam, why don't you talk to mas
sa and tell him to lay up treasures in

others for what they are, and others for
what their fathers were.

Dying for a Kiss. An inquest was
held lately on the body of a young man
who, in the attempt to snatch a kiss from
the unwilling lips of a girl, fell down
stairs and killed himself. Not a great
while since a young lady broke her neck
in trying to escape a kiss. The question
now is, shall kissing be considered a
dangerous amusement?
nti officer, who was inspecting
his company one morning, spied one
private whose shirt was sadly begrimed.
Patrick O'Flynn ! " called out the cap
tain. "Here, yer honor!'' promptly res
ponded I'airick, with his hand to his
eap. "How long do yon wear a shirt? "
thundered the officer. " Trcenty-cigM
inches,'' was the rejoinder.
A PrzzLF.n Justice. A man named
Josh, was brought before a country
squire for stealing a hog, and three wit
nesses being examined swore they saw
hint steal it. A wag having volunteered
as counsel for Josh, knowing the scope
of the squire's brain, arose and address
ed him as follows:
"May it please your honor, I can es
tablish this man's honesty beyond the
shadow of a doubt, for I have twelve
witnesses to swear they did net. see him
steal it"
The squire rested his head for a few
moments on his hand, as if in deep
thought, and with great dignity arose,
and brushing back his hair said:
"If there are twelve men who didn't
see him steal it, and only three who did,
I discharge the prisoner."
A Mobile Market Scene.
The Mobile Tribune furnishes the fol
lowing, and it shows to what a condition
the laboring class are reduced in the
South:
The market continues to be abundantly
supplied with every variety of vegetables
raised at this season of the year, plenty
of good beef and mutton, fish, &c.
Speaking of fish, we heard of a scene
that is said to have pecurred in the fish
market a short time since. It was told
to us about as follows : One of the con- !
script officers learning that there were
several of the fishermen subject to the j
niilitarv laws, on the followins Saturday '
sir 'weuraWhnyryio vended crabs." In !
a few minutes a lady stepped up and :
asked the price, when the TOUe Dieo-o '
remarked
" Two dollars a dozen, marm."
My gracious, it isn't possible you ask
two dollars for one dozen crabs?"
" You no lika, you no take; you no j
want to buya, go away; la no want youa t
money; it is no mora two dimes three i
years ago."
The lady became disgusted and left.
Several other purchasers came up and j
they were treated in the same uncivil
maimer. Finally the conscript officer,
who heard all the conversation, stepped
op mod asked
"Do you belong to the service, sir?"
The Diego knew him and his business 1
at once, so he attempted to evade the in
quiry by replying
"1 no cara for a fewa fisha. You want
him, taka him for one dollar and six
bitts."
"I don't want your fish, I asked if you
was attached to any military company?"
"You wanta de fish, take de fish for a
dollar and a half"
arp'inSwIJ'nnroknw whetheryu
"Well taka dis buncha for yourself. I
po cara for a buncha of fish: taka ile
usha: taka as much as vou wanta for
nothing;" and attempted to escape, but
it was no go. He was then taken nn tr !
the Provost Marshal's office to state his
exemption or take his place in the ranks
to defend the country that has furnished
mm with food and protection for years

DR. JOHN BULL'S
COMPOUND
CEDRON BITTEKS,
The Latost and Host Important Dis
covery of the 19th Cental?.
XTO MAN'S NAME IS MORE INTIMATELY
: l connected with the history of the Materia
! Medica of the United States, or more lavorably
I known as a pioneer in medical discovery, than
that of Dr. JOHN BULL, of Louisville, Ky. His
inimitable oreuaration of Sars.iparilla has long
stood at the h ad of the various compounds of that
valuable drug. His Compound Pfctoral or Witt
Chekbt has become a household word throughout
the West and South ; and his Worm Lozenges, in
less than a year after their introduction, attained
a reputation as wide-spread as the continent of
North America. But the erowniug glory of his
lift remainB to 6e attained in hiB latest discovery, ,
or rather combination ; for he does not claim to j
have been the discoverer of CEDRON, which is the
basis of the bitters now ofiered to the public.
That honor belongs to the native inhabitants of ;
Central America, to whom itSTirtues have been
known for more than two hundred years. Armed
with it, toe Indiau bids defiance to the most dead
ly malaria, and haudles without fear the meat
venemous serpents. It is a belief with them that !
while there i breath left in the body, the Oedron j
is potent to cure, no matter what the disease may ;
be.
While Dr. Bull is not prepared to indorse this
extravagant pretension, he is nevertheless satis
fied from a thorough examination of the evidence
relative to its virtues, that as a remedy and pre
ventative for all diseases arising from exi".ue,
either to changes of weather and climate, or to
the miasmatic influences, it stands witliou: a
rival aud justly deserves the reputation it hosso
long enjoyed in Central America and the West
Indies. In
DYSPEPSIA,
And its attendant train of symptoms, its acts
more like a charm than a mediciue. There is
nothing in the whole range of the Materia Medica,
that for a moment bear a comparison w ith it in
this disease.
A full account of this wonderful plant may be
found in the 11th edition of the U. 8. Disjienea
tory, pages 1387 and 1388.
A series of experiments in which Dr. Bull has
been for years engaged, has just been brought to a
successful termination aud he is now enabled to
offer to the public a combination of Ceilron wltn
other approved tonics, the whole preserved in the
best quality of copper- distilled Bourbon whisky,
which he is congdent has no equal in the world.
lie might furnish a volume of certificates, but
'fc public have long since learned to estimate
'"c" things at their true value. The safest plan
for every ono to test for himself the virtues of
m. w medicine. Give
Oetlron Bitters,
Our trial and you will never use any others.
