Flights of Genins.

“You look,” said an Irishman to a pale, haggard smoker, “as if you had got out of your grave to light your cigar, and couldn’t find your way back again." A schoolmaster, describing a moneylender, says: “He serves you in the present tense, he lends you in the conditional mood, keeps you in the subjective, and ruins you in the future.” A close observer of human nature remarks: “Time marches on, with the slow, measured tread of the man working by the day. ” A French author is charged with the prediction that France will throw herself into the arms of the liberating sword. This is not quite so bad as the Democrat’s speech: “We will burn our ships, and with every sail unfurled, steer boldly out into the ocean of freedom!”

A clergyman on board a ship began a sermon in the following manner; “Dear friends, I shall embark my exhortation on the barge of my lips, in order to cross the stormy ocean of your attention, and in hope of arriving safely at the port of your ears.” A learned counselor, in the middle of an affecting appeal in court on a slander suit, treated his hearers to the following flight of genius: “Slander, gentlemen, like a boa-constrictor of gigantic size and immeasurable proportions, wraps the coil of its unwieldly body about its unfortunate victim, and heedless of the shrieks of agony that come from the uttermost depths of its victim’s soul—loud and verberating as the night thunder that rolls in the heavens—it finally 'breaks its unlucky neck upon the iron wheel of public opinion, forcing him first to desperation, then to madness, and finally crushing him in the hideous jaws of mortal death.” A young American lawyer employed to defend a culprit charged with stealing a pig resolved to convince the court that he was born to shine. Accordingly, he proceeded to deliver the following brilliant exordium: “May it please the court and gentlemen of the jury, while Europe is bathed in blood; while classic Greece is struggling for her rights and liberties, and trampling the unhallowed altars of the bearded infidels to dust; while America shines the brightest orb in the politicial sky —I, with due diffidence, rise to defend the cause of this humble hog-thief.” “Pray, my lord,” said a gentleman to a late respected and rather whimsical Judge, “what is the difference betw’een law and equity courts?” “Very little in the end,” replied his 'lordship; “they only differ as far as time is concerened. At common law you are done for at once; in equity you are not so easily disposed of. The former is a bullet, which is instantaneously and charmingly effective; the latter is an angler’s hook, which plays with its victim before it kills it. The one is prussic acid, the other laudanum.” — Chambers’ Journal.

A Useful Precaution.

It is a useful precaution for the tourist, the commercial traveler, or the emigrant to the West, to take along Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Invalids who travel by steamboat or rail should provide themselves with it, in order to prevent or remedy the nausea which the jarring and vibration of vehicles in transitu often causes them. Vastly preferable is it for this simple, but needful purpose, to the heady unmedicated stimulants of commerce. On board Ship, it not only remedies sea-sickness, but neutralizes the pernicious effects of water Slightly brackish, which, if unqualified, is apt to give rise to irregularities of the bowels, cramps in the abdominal region, and dyspepsia. To the aerial poison of malaria it is an efficient antidote. Sick headache, heartburn, and wind upon the stomach, are promptly banished by it. It healthfully stimulates the kidneys and bjadder, and nullifies the early symptoms of rheumatism.

Washing Day in Corea.

The Corean women, who, unlike good children, are heard but not seen, give evidence of their wakefulness and industry all night long. Corean white .cotton and hemp clothes are washed by being pounded on a stone in some dirty pool or creek around the city, and they are ironed, or rather given their silken gloss, by being wound tightly on wooden rollers and pounded by the hour. Two women sit on the ground, facing each other, with the roller between, and play lively tunes with a pair of wooden drumsticks that each one holds. That rat-tat keeps up all night, and one hears it all day, and when Corean women get time to gosisip is a question.— St. Louis GlobeDemocrat. Road making was reduced to a science by McAdam, during the latter half of the last century, and from him comes the term “macadamized” as applied to road making by using stones into irregular sizes. Chancellob, an English captain, first sailed into the White Sea in 1553, 'and this led to the building of Archangel and the commerce of Russia.

The Correct Time.

There are very few men who do not pride themeelves on always having the correct time, and wondebl'ul and delicate mechanisms arc devised to enable them to do so. But the more delicate a chronometer is made the more subject it becomes to derangement, and unless it be kept always perfectly clean it soon loses its usefulness. What wonder, then, that the human machine—so much more delicate and intricate than any work of man—should require to be kept thoroughly cleansed. The liver is the mainspring of this complex structure, and on the impurities left in the blood by a disordered liver depend most of the ills that flesh is heir to. Even consumption (which is lung scrofula) is traceable to the imperfect action of this organ. Kidney diseases, skin diseases, sick headache, heart disease, dropsy, and a long catalogue of grave maladies have their origin in a torpid or sluggish liver. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, by establishing a healthy, normal action of the liver, acts as a cure and preventive of these diseases. By a wise provision of Providence, close beside the little tree on which nutmegs grow often stands a greater.— Texas Siting a.

Effect of Trades on the Health.

Some singular statements have been made in the Deutsche Monatschrift concerning the effect produced by different trades and industrial occupations upon the general health. Among these facta are those contributed by Prof. Hesse, of Leipsic, who points out the deplorable condition of the teeth of bakers, and who also asserts that he is frequently able to indicate the occupation of persons by the condition of their teeth. In the case of bakers the caries is soft and rapidly progressive; the principal parts attacked are the labial and buccal surfaces of the teeth, commencing at the crevix and rapidly extending to the grinding surface —the approximal surfaces not seeming to be attacked more than in other trades. Prof. Hesse believes that the disease is owing to the inhalation of flour dust, the caries being caused by the action of an acid which is formed in the presence of fermentable carbohydrates,
