I of a soldier who chanced to possess a canteen of beer. Ti wounaed man then drank, returned his heartiest thanks, mentioned that his regiment was nearly exterminated, and having proceeded a dozen yards on his way to the rear, fell to the earth, and, with one convulsive movement of the litnbs, concluded his career. His voice," 1 said the trooper, who himself tells the story, "gave scarcelj' the slightest sign of weakness."

Captain Basil Hall, who, in his early youth, was present at the battle of Corunna, has singled out, from the conclusion that consigns to oblivion the woes and gallantry of war, another instance, extremely similar, which occurred on that occasion. An old officer, who was shot In the head, arrived pale and faint at the temporary hospital,and begged the surgeon to look at his wound, which was pronounced mortal.

Indeed, I feared so," be responded, with impeded utterance, "ana yet I should wish very much to live a little longer, if it were only possible."

He laid the sword upon the stone at his side, as gently, says Hall, as if the steel had been turned Into glass, and immediately sank senseless upon the turf.

Somktimr.—It is a sweet, sweet .song flowing to and fro through the topmost boughs of the heart, and fills the whole air with song and gladness as the songs of birds do, when Summer morning comes out of the darkness, and the day is born on the mountains. We have ail our possessions in the future which we call "Sometime." Beautiful flowers and sweet-singing birds are there, only our hand seldom grasps the on--, or our ears hear, except in faint, far-off strains, the other. But oh, reader, be of good cheer, for to all the jtood there is a golden '•Sometime!" When the hills and valleys of time are all passed, when the wear and the fever, the disappointments and the sorrows of life are over then there is peace and the rest apjjointed of God. O! homestead over whose blessed roof falls 110 shadow or even in clouds, across whose threshold the voice of sorrow is never heard built upon the eternal hills.

A littt.f. bit of a thing who had just got back from a party, was asked by her mamma how she had enjoyed herself. "O mamma!" she said, "I'm so full of happiness—I couldn't be no happeir, without I was bigger." So reasoned Samuel Johnson. The quart pot and the pint may both le full but the quart holds the most.

A i-iTTLE thing in a Sabbath school was asked by her teacher "if she always said her prayers night and morning." "No, Miss, I don t." "Why, Marv! Are you not afraid to go to sleep in the dark, without asking God to take care of you, and watch over you till morning?" "No, Miss, I ain't—'cause I sleep I11 the middle."

POISONED TO DEA TH.

A healthy liver secretes each day about two and a half pounds of bile, which contains a great amount of waste material taken from the blood. When the liver becomes torpid or congested, it fails to eliminate this vast amount of noxious substance, which, therefore, remains to poison the blood and be convoyed to every part of the system. What must be the condition of the blood when it is receiving and retaining oach day two and a half pounds of poison? Nature tries to work ofTthis poison through other channels and or-

Tho brain, which is the great electrical centre of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the unhealthy blood which passes to it from the heart, and it fails to perforin its office healthfully. Hence the symptoms of bile poisoning, which are dullness, headache, incapacity to keep the mind 011 any subject, impairment of memory, dizzy, sleepy, or nervous feelings, gloomy forebodings and irritability of temper.

ting and |xisonous that it produces discolored brown spots, piuiplos,blotches and other eruptions, sores, boils, carbuncles and scrofulous tumors. The stomach, bowels, and other organs spoken of, cannot escape becoming affected, sooner or later, and cosliveness, piles, dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrhoea, female weakness, and many other forms of chronic disease, are among the necessary results. As a remedy for all these various manifestations ot disease, l)r. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is positively unequaled. By it tho liver and stomach are changed to an active, healthy state, the appetite regulated and restored, the blooa and secretions thoroughly purified and enriched, and the whole system renovated and built up anew.
