Hoofland's German Bitters,
A Bitten without Alcohol or Spirits of liny kind,
In different from all others. " It is composed of the pare juices or vital pbiscipal of Boots, Rem a, and Basis (or is medicinally termed, extracts), the worthless or inert portions of the ingredients not being need. Therefore, in one bottle of this Bi :ters there is contained as much medicinal virtue as wi.l be found in several gallons ol' ordinary mixtures.' The Boots, etc., used in this Bitters are grown in Germany, their vital principles extracted in that country hy a scientific Chemist and-forwarded to the manufactory in this city, where they are compounded ana bottled. Containing no Bptrituonsing redienta, this Bisters is free from the objections urged against all others , no desire for stimulants can be induced from their usu, they cannot make drunkards, and cannot, under any circumstance!!, have any bat a beneficial effect.
Hoofland's German Tonic
Was compounded for those not inclined to extreme bitters, and if intended for use in cases when some alcoholic stimulant is required in connection with the Tonic properties of the Bitters. Each bottle of the Tonic contains one bottle of the Bitters, combined with pure Santa Cbcz Bex, and flavored in such a manner that the extremn bitterness of the Filters is overcome, formiug a preparation lej'ily agreeable and pleasant to the palace, and containing the medicinal virtues of the Bitters. The price of the "onic is 81.50 per bottle, which many person 3 think too high. They must take into consi leration that the stimnlant used is guarantt ed to be of a pure qual
ity. A poor article oould be furnished at a cheaper price, bnt is t not better to pay a little more and have a grod article? A medicinal preparation should c mtain none 'out the best ingredients, and they who espect to obtain a heap compound sill most certainly be cheated. They are the Greatest Known Remedies For LTVEB COMPLVTNT, DYSPEl'SIA, NERVOUS EEEUJTif, JAUNDICE, DISEASE OF Tin: KIDNEYS, ERUPTIONS OP THE SEIN, and all diseasees arsing from disordered liver, Ptomnch, or IMIUBTTY OS THE BLOOD.

A Singular Encounter with a. W lid Cat A Prlghcfnl Adventure in the SlmwaBfnnk Moeatauu A Narrow Kscapc. Corresnondrnce of the N. Y. Sun. On lost Friday morning, a dog Ihslonging to one John Felter, a woodchopper, was heard barking in fcxe mountains some distance from the house. Mr. Felter's little eon, twelve years old, knowing by the bark of the dog that some important game was cn foot, set out for the mountains. H mother felt a little anxious after tie boy had gone, and for some time listened to the barking of the dog. After half an hour the barking ceased ; and, as hour after hour passed away and the boy did not make his appearance, the mother set out to go to one of ti e neighbors to secure their help in a search for the boy. On the road ale met her husband rettunxing home from the village, where he had that morning been attending to some business. Be listened to his wife's story, and trying to calm her fears, went bock with her to the house, and taking his gun started towards the place indicated by his wife. Mi'. Felter traveled about through th e mountains until late in the afternoon, seeing nothing, hearing nothing, and was about to return home when he almost stumbled over the dead carcaiis of a wild-cat. It was a very large mali. Everything indicated a terrible conflict. The spectacle gave Mr. Felfaar an apprehension that some terrible thing had happened to his boy. Examining tbe leaves and underbrush, te had little difficulty in finding a trail of blood, and this he followed nearly a hundred yards. Then be came upon the dog, standing over the body of kj son, who was prostrate on the ground. The dog was earnestly looking at ti.e boy, and occasionally licking his face end hands. Oh Mr. Felter's approach, he gave a loud bark and pranced about with joy. The father knelt by the sic.e of his son and placed his hand over his heart. With joy unspeakable he found tho little fellow alive, but tenihy wounded, as it appeared, by the cbvvre of the wildcat. The little fellow's clothes were almost torn to shreds, and his flesh was terribly lacerated from head to foot. Ele was suffering from Iobs of blood, but his wounds had been handsomely dressed by the faithful dog, which he .3 for hours been standing by him, bckiiig them. Taking his boy in his arms, the father made his way home, followed by the ever faithful dog. After reaching the house, restoratives having been a-1-miListered, the boy was able to tell his story. He came upon the wildcat, and seeing that his cacship held the dog t bay, having an advantageous positio a, he attempted to dislodge him, first with stones ; but these the beast did not seem to mind. Then he got a pole and attempted to poke him out. At this the wildcat became enraged, ani, springing upon the boy, scratched and tore his flesh as above stated. At ttis the dog dashed ut the cat and soon despatched it. The boy attempted to go home, but sank to the ground exhausted. The little fellow is doing well. The good nursing of the dog has done much toward allaying the inflammation ; the licking of liis wounds by the faithful animal has undoubtedly saved tie boy'B life.

Buffalo. When Booth stabbed him t'.ie awkward oil duffer fell flat on the register of the stage. Some devil of aa actor, seeing this, ran down and told the wild Irishman at the furnace that everybody was freezing on the sta ge to rash "tap the fires. We who were in the seeret watched the result Fir it, the dead King broke into a profuse perspiration while Richard was delivering his long soliloquy. How the dead King did sweat ! But, as the tire increased, he began to wriggle and squirm. The audience was startled to see the body quiver and the legs give little poC-ior-tem kicks not in accordance with the text. We could hear him mutter to Richard : " Hurry up, cuss it; hurry up! I'm roasting iiere ! "
But Richard continued rolling oat his heavy thunder n s slowly and deliberately as if liis royal highness wsre resting ou a bed of roses. At last, when he groaned out, "Down, down toh,;lL and say I sent thee thither !" his Jeporting majesty rose up and walked off the stage, rubbing his back aa if he felt ridiculous, to the ntter amazemint of the audience. But Booth was equal to the occasion Striking an attitude, he roared out : "Can inch thing be, And overcome us like a snrunier's cloud, Without -onr special wonder t " Dy?an got a black eye and a bro cen nosyi while attempting to kick the Ir shmap.

In the letter referred to, the Secretary announced his aecepttnee of the Solicitor's conchlRons as to the tax on such interest conpons paid prior to tho Iftth of May, 1871, but stated that bis decision had no reftirenoe to the tax on ti.ividends or stock, adding that that question had not been passed upon Tim. To-day the Secretary informed the Commissioner that no question remained before him as to tax doe on divi

EXOKNTKIIJITUBS OF NvTBO GkyCBRDTK. Nitro glycerine does not seem to become any more civilized as it mixes in in scienfefic society. We read in a German publication an extraordinary account of the explosion of only 10 drops of this substance which a pupil in a laboratory had put into a small iron saucepan and heated with a Bunnell gas flame. The effect of tho explosion was that the 46 panes of glass of the windows of the laborary were etnas bed to atoms, the saucepan aras hurled through a brick wall, the stout iron stand on which the vessel bad bee 1 placed was partly split, partly spirally twisted, and the tube of the Bunsea burner was split and flattened outwards.

rum uuu. xo iiuum .um u.u umaxb of skimmed milk until tho mixture is transformed into a homogeneous mass ; It is then taken from the fire, and to it is immediately added ha lf an ounce of cross-spired barley, which must have been first ground in a coffee null, and mixed with an ounce of coid water and a drachm of a solution of bi-cirbonate of potash, the latter in turn made eleven parts of water to two of potash. After having added the barley, the vessel is placed in warm water, or a warm place, until the mixture has lost its ronriistency, nd has become liquid like cream. It is allowed to repose for fifteen or twenty minutes, and is then placed on the fire and mace to boil for a few seconds, when it is removed and poured through a k trainer of hair or thread, so as. to elikxiiiiato tho fibrous parts of the barley. The artificial in ilk thus prepared contains, according to Prof. Liebig, the plastic and respirato ry elements essential to respiration and nutrition of the body, in about the proportion of from ten to thirty eight on the hundred the same, according to Prof. liebig, ae human milk. Instead of the process formerly employed, weldless steel tires are now manufactured in England by rolliuf. The mill which is used for thin purpoie consists of two seta of rolls support id by the same framework, bnt each sat working independently of the other. Hydrahc power is employed to press
the rolls together. The first set of rolls consists of a single pair. The opera
tion of making the tire consists in placing a hammered ring contacting enough metal to form the tire betwwon the first pair of rolls in such a way that
tbe niur encircles one of the rolls. It
is then enlarged by rolling, and itu section formed in the same manner as m straight bar would be diHwn and tihaed in ordinary rolling n alb. Tho a ond set of roll-s is simiLir to the first.

mounted upon a pair of jaws viiioh can be opened and clos-.sd by toothed segments operated by a worm having a right and left liand thread These rolls finish the tire. Seventy to e&titv
