THE HIICHNAL "KHTI.Of K; A Slavonic Story Translated IVoni the Serhic Languujre by Louis I.POCK, unit from tlie French by htontssoii LE Lemiue. The father of (Inker upbraided him every day for his idleness and liis love to run the streets of Saraievo, playing on the tarn botirica (f). “You are voting,1 my son.” said be to him; “\Ve are old, we eamiot work. Who will feed us, if you do not?” (Inter paid no attention to his father's counsels, and refused to work, lie was known at Saraievo as the chief of all the idlers. To go from house to house, from window to window—such was bis occupa tion. Everbody saw that Outer was not yet ripe for marriage, and marriage was forbidden to him, both on account of his youth and his empty purse. Everybody was convinced that the devil was in him. t he shame of his conduct reflected upon hi- poor parents. The sorrow which they experienced abridged their lives; they died. Oilier remained the chief of a cracked and empty house with three orphans. Fur a long time lie had been desirous to live in freedom, without having to incur his father'-' reproaches, and to be aide to satis fy all liis caprices; tint he soon felt bow bard it was to live without parents, and how heavy was the house upon Ids shoulders. "Who will spin now. who will weave, who will sweep the house? This is serious business.” Having thus reflected, Outer said to him self: “l!y my tainbouriea, nothing remains but to marry.” And In1 hung bis tambourica, on bis shoulder ami proceeded under the windows of the beautiful Moira, lie arrived there at tlie hour when the Turks pray. A light was burning, and oiecs were heard in the chamber. bnor knocked at the window silence ensued. He sang: the light was put out. Mo one paid attention to him. For tliree evenings in succession he came under the window, and each time returned home sad and desolate. Mcira had not even showed herself. He went back a fourth time: “Here 1 will sing again to-night, and will come back no more under her win dows.” 11«* tuned his tam!>ounr;i, ami with a sau voice san cr “Tamlmurfca, my paRt-tJme, Hu* iny hw oct joy I.on tongue, infidel, else the executioner will cut thy head off.” The Jew perceived that but one chance remained him in order to save his life. “Illustratous effendi!” said he, I gave you thirty purses; I gave up the thirty which l have lent to my debtor, Be for me a father and mother. Effendi, I have sinned; pardon me i order me not to out off the tongue of any whomsoever, especi ally that of my good friend 'Omer.” “Cut his head off,” said the Cadi to tho executioner. The executioner seized the poof Jew, who clung to the Cadi. “Pitv, effendi, if you are Turk.” Then Omer Intervened, aud beseeehed the Cadi in favor of Ids triedd.

“Omer said he to him. “for your sake, I forgive’him. The probity of a Turk is more solid than stone. Let that Jew un derstand thoroughly what a tribunal is. and also the sentence of a Cadi." And the Jew paid the Cadi thirty purses. The latter invited him afterward to em brace Oilier. “And to put an end to this after, I am going,” said he, "to enter it on the great book.” After having kissed the Judge s shoes, and the carpet under him. the two parties thanked him for his equitable sentence and paternal goodness, and left the tribunal. One door closed, another opened. The true Cadi entered, splitting his sides with laughter. *‘Bv rav bpaitl* woman, I £66 nothing in the books wiser than you If you were a man, in truth, there would be no adi equal to vou in Constantinople.” Meria thanked him for his kindness to her in yielding his own seat, and ofTeied him fifteen purses of the Jew’s money*. The Cadi refused, and gave her one! more purse. She kissed the flap of liis coat, thanked him, left the tribunal and returned home before Omer, who had stopped at the coffee house. On seeing him arrive from her window, she began to jest. “Ah! ah! here is Omer with his tongue cut off,” said she, stammering like. “You are mistaken,” said Omer. She, pretending astonishment, asked him “What has happened then "God and the wise Cadi (he is as hand some as an apple, God keep him from all harm!) have saved me and fooled the Jew.” “Is the Cadi handsomer than I re* plied Meria, showing him the JO purses. Omer wept for joy, and thrice kissed the brow of his skillful spouse. Seeing how wise she was, lie loved her three times more than before; lie listened to her good advice, attended closely to his business, and acquired great riches.

The rulers in the democratic camp have now been for more than two weeks vigor ously beating the bush to liml some indi vidual who is willing to become bait on their hook, that peradventure, gudgeons may swallow and be drawn into their game-bag. The essential qualification such an individual must possess, is—he must not be a democrat. They have not yet succeeded in discovering any such as piring martyr. The difficulty is they ask too much; they offer to merely swallow one republican, and demand of such re publican that he swallow their whole nau seous concern. Such illilierality won't succeed. A letter written in Bath to the Lewiston Journal, refers to our nominee as follows: “The nomination of Hon. Sidney l’er hatn as our standard bearer meets witli genera) favor in this section, and none m»/e cordially endorse the nomination than the many friends of Gen. S. F. Her* sey, who wilf labor with their accustomed zeal to preserve tin- unity and integrity of the party, and roll up the old-fashioned majority for our candidate next September. The Democrat* of Washington county, Ohio, in convention resolved that the so called adoption of the Filteeth Amend ment was a shameless mockery, having been consummated by fraud in the North ern States, and by the tyrauny ot the Fed oral army in the South," and that “this i a white man's government, marie by whin men for white men and their posterity, GENERAL NEWS.

Tlie Pacific steamship Kcuador, employed along the South American coast, has been destroyed at sea hy the explosion of her boil er. Stic hail twenty-six passengers and seven were lost. At Conneaut, Pa.. Tuesday morning, Ralph Wright, a fanner, sixty years of age, mur dered his wife by splitting her head open witli an axe, set fire to his dwelling-house and then hung himself in a stable. He was in- sane. A Mexican piratical craft was lately attack ed and destroyed by the United States steam er Mohican. Knsign Wainwright and a cocks wain were killed and five or six seamen wounded. The present wheat crop in Virginia is re ported to be the largest and finest harvested for vears. From all parts of the country wo get about the same. In New York, Tuesday, while the Orange men were having a picrtic they by some means got into trouble witli the Catholics and the result was a terrible riot, in which working implements and firearms were used with fatal effect. Several were killed and scores wounded. A married couple at F’ort Dodge, Wiscon sin, wanting a divorce, the woman consented that the man should whip her before witness es. The dodge succeeded. Among the recreations allowed to the con victs in the Rhode Island State Prison on the Fourth was jumping over a horizontal liar, j “You jump very well,” remarked a bystander to an agile convict. “Oh, this is nothing,” replied the convict, “I expect to go over the prison walls before I get through.” The railroad from Terre Haute, Ind., to the Indianapolis and St. Louis road was open l for travel and freight a day or two since, j i This makes two rival lines from St. Louis east, both passing through Terre Haute.

An underground railroad route through 1 Baltimore is now the subject of discussion among the railroads centering in that city, j The entire sum required to lie raised is esti mated at *1,588,000 represented by bonds, j and *000,000 bv stock, and the important point for consideration is the proportion of aid that should be extended to hy each of the seven companies interested in the city of Baltimore. The Chinese shoemakers at North Adams, Massachusetts, trade more freely and regu larly than was expected. Already they have spent several hundred dollars in buying clothing, provisions, boots and shoes. Con- i j sidering their wages and their necessities and 1 wants, they will probably spend in tile vil- lage as much of their earnings as others, i They are pleased with their quarters and their employment, and are as unconscious' as children of the commotion which their ad vent has caused. James O’Neill was hung last Sunday night on Brown's Bridge, nine miles from Denver, by unknown parties. A placard was attached to the body with the inscription of “Cattle Thief’ upon it. General Howard has written a letter se verely commenting on the conduct of the white cadets at West Point toward the color ed cadet; he says significantly; “If West Point has not power enough to protect such a young man ns cadet Smith—quick, able, hon est, noble-spirited us he is—then West Point will have a hard struggle against the return ing tide of feeling that will hreak in from the people.” It is very trying, after yoa have stated on oath your opinion,—supposing you are a landlady,—that a certain corpse is that of one of your lodgers; and after it is buried, witli a verdict of suicide, and you’ve overhauled his trunk, and settled with the Coroner, and made up your mind to the loss, to have the man himself, six months afterward, call in upon you and deny the fact. Vet such was the case in Springfield, Mass., one day last week, and although the landlady has pretty nearly gone crazy about it, Anton Ethinger, the lodger in question, insists that lie was never a corpse, and neither the Coroner nor any one else can for the life of him say who it was that was buried as Anton Ethinger last winter. A Washington correspondent says Our i new Police court under Judge Snell of Maine, organized and began business Monday morn ing. The people who wunted to see how he would manage things were so numerous that his rooms were completely packed. He worked off about twenty eases, and the crowd got an idea that he believes in high fines and strong punishments.” Thp Hon. Bion in the Democratic State Convention was exceedingly “sweet” on a few gentlemen outside his party whom he styled “liberal.” There is an old leg end which relates that a terrible giant, in a loving mood, one day killed a favorite eourtier, merely by patting him on the back. Secretary Fish authorizes the statement to be published that he lias not tendered his resignation to the President, to take effect next September or at any other time. He has rented his house till next spring and expects to occupy it—as a member ot the Cabinet, we presume. The favorite organ of the Mieawber Democracy continues this week its imbecile attacks on Mr. Blaine, reminding one very forcibly ol an artillery discharge of I inflated bladders at the mountain of (lib eral ter. Sixteen election districts in New York city, by the recent census, have a popnla tion of about 87,000, but they cost nearly 70,1)0) votes at the last spring election.

COMM rlXCEMEST AT BOWDOIX COL LEGE. The Close of fommrncrmfDl Week. Bri nswick, July 14, 1&70. Class Reinion. The class of ’66 held a reunion at the Ton tine Hotel last evening. A grand supper was prepared for them by tbe famous proprietor of the house, Mr. II. B. l’inkham. The meet ing broke up about 12 o’clock with loud cheers. Class Day. The morning opefied bright and fair. A large crowd of both young and old arrived in town on the early trains. The hotels are con sequently crowded to overflowing. Among the arrivals at the Tontine are lion. Win. I’. Frye, Hon. John A. l’oor and a host of other celebrities. Mr. Pinkham has provided (or them in the best manner, and his tables afford a display of every delicacy which the market affords. This morning the Phi Beta Kappa Fraternity held their annual meeting at Adam's Hall when several new members from the present graduating class were elected. After the meeting the Alumni formed in procession and were escorted to the church by the Ger mania. after which they listened to an address by Prof. W. fit. Barbour of Bangor, which was in every respect a line effort. Afternoon Session. Before the hour of two, the Congregation al church was again filled to "its utmost ca capacity by an audience who were eager to hear the oration and poem. The oration was delivered by Wm. K. Spear of Rockland, subject “Power.” He said that power was the attribute of every existence and illustra ted its presence in the works of Nature. He combatted the naturalistic idea that man was evolved from nature. Said that nature was but the necessary condition to life, holding the same relation to it that the material ob ject does to the sight. Take away nature and there could be no life. Take away the material object and there could be no sight. Yet neither one creates the other. Each is virtually dependent upon the other. Each is entirely different from the other. Said that physical grography did not exert a perma nent influence upon man, illustrated by ref erence to the condition of China. Said na ture was controlled by physical forces, brutes were guided by blind instinct, but man had power to govern himself, and as he has this power he is not dependent on circum stances. Said that it was man’s duty to de- I velop himself, and that development consist ed in being true to God, true to his fellow man and true to himself. The oration was j an able and scholarly effort. Next in order came the Poem by A. G. Whitman ot Auourn. we give me iohow ing beautiful extracts: Four years we’ve meet within yon classic walls Here on the closing scene the curtain falls. Through labyrinthic shades we’ve sought the light, l util upon our vision lair and bright. With mingled hues auroral beau tic* dawn, And robed in light, the ro?*y-tinge red morn Dispels the shadows from the Eastern skies, And tints the clouds with rich Vermillion dyes. With a-pirations high we sought the palm, And Time, with bu>y hand, dispelled the charm, Till on the common earth «e walk again,— Seniors with students, Freshmen still with men. The Poet next refers to the Court of Jus tice, where punishment was often meted out to Freshmen Old days om^more we pass in swift review. And many curious scenes again renew. The gloomy hall of Justice we recall. The frowuing rostrum and the blackened wall; Hope, axe and pulley, blanket, pail and horn, The ghastly, grim ami ghostly skeleton.

A stern decree the hoary judge imparts, And many gentle hands and heavy hearts Surround the culprit, and inspired by dread He takes a queer position on his head When m the name of father, son and daughter. Into his trowsefs leg they pour the water. j Alas! that solemn court is known no more, And its impressive walls are whitewashed o’er. And Freshmen now are trooping unconcerned, wiicre once our altar fires with iucense burned. Our Lares and Fenates sought no more,-— Our pride and glory in the days of yort— To dark and secret places have been borne, Their power departed, and their glory gone. The following passage has reference to tin* expulsion of several students during the past term on account of class troubles But there were others, brave and noble boys, Who loved to blow a horn and make a noise. Or spill a pail of water so ’twould hit A loud-mouthed Freshman loafing under it But these were foibles and we’ve yet to learn, That ’twas expedient or just to spurn Our earnest efforts and t«. sternly send. Them to an exile that will never end. Just at whose door the ghastly plunder lies. We don’t assume to say, ’twoulu be unwise. There’s rottenness in Denmark, and we pray That Time and Fire may purge the filth away.

At length our college years are passed away, Their hopes and liieir’cndearing memories,’ Their disappointments and their sad regrets, Are graven on the tablets of the past. Records that ever seem to stand above The grave of Time,—sad monuments. As o’er the buried past to-day we chant The requiem of four more years, Tombed with the countless ages gone before. How fitting then that in their memory We raise a monument, and sculpture there The epitaph. These days can never die. As pass away the swiftly hurrying years, Let each its impress leave upon the mind. Thus being wedded to a deathless spirit, The dying years in turn will live again.

But as the crimson hues of Autumn tinge The forest leaves with beauty lovlier fur Than art can give or genius can conceive, A transient beauty yet surpassing all The charms bright spring or joyous summer boasts,, .So let us hope that these our early days, May to u rosy twilight sweetly melt.

J For the Journal. RECOLLECTION'S OF .1011X HURRA Y. In a late number of the Gospel Banner, j Isaac Wheeler of Amherst, known as Father j Wheeler, who died recently at the age of 91, was spoken of as having been tho last man living who had seen and heard the Rev. John Murray. In the Springfield Republican he is alluded to in the same way. This is a mis take. As Mr. Murray is held in reverence by a large sect in this country, as the first promul gator of their peculiar doctrines here, it may not be uninteresting to state, that my father, Nathan Weston, heard him preach in Boston frequently. This was at various times when my father was in Boston, between fifteen and twenty-three years «f age, and staying at the house of Mr. John Fillebrown, a brother of j the late Col. Thomas Fillebrown. He was also introduced to him when he was calling upon Mr. Fillebrown, who was one of his parishioners and lie remembers Mr. Murray’s saying very impressively, during that visit. “O, that men were wise, that they understood j this, that they would consider their hitter 1 end 1” He also saw him at the Grand Lodge, j where he was treated with great attention. He lias a lively recollection of him, and says his person now presents itself to his imagina tion as strongly as that of any one he ever knew and that he was a man to be remem bered. My father at first recalled him to his mind as one not so old as he finds he must have been at the period when he saw him; and he accounts for this by saying, that his i appearance indicated great vigor, in conse i quenee of which he seemed younger than he was. He further describes liini as eloquent, and preaching without notes in a strong, pow erful voice. L. M. Divuisox. Domestic Nctos. The eastern section of the State is jubilant over the result of the boat race, which has taken place on the St. Croix river between the four-oared crews of the St. Stephen, N. B., and Calias, Me., rowing clubs. The i crews engaged had previously rowed upon the Fourth of July for a purse offered by the city of Calias, upon which occasion the Amer ican crew easily won. The Knglisli crew im i mediately challenged the victorious crew to row tlu'iu upon the morning of the 7th over u three mile course. The Americans again won. The men composing the latter crew were Charles Davidson (stroke), John Whiteneck, John Wallace, George Davidson (bow.) Intelligence comes of the death of Capt. John Curtis of Brunswick, at Bermuda, July 3d, of typhoid fever. The sad intelligence reached his home after his wife had left to join her husband, having heard of his sick ness. Capt. Curtis was one of the. most prominent ship-masters of Brunswick, and universally esteemed. A correspondent of the Whig says YVater ville has reason to feel proud of her institu tions of learning. With the University and Institute situated in the village with an excel lent system of public schools, none of her children need grow up in ignorance. Vet it is a disgraceful fact, that a large proportion of the children of foreign parentage can nei rcad nor write. Scores and even hundreds of these children are growing from childhood to manhood under the very shadows of these institutions who will never take the first step towards enlightenment, whose education will be rather in the school of intemperance and evil. This fact, alas, is apparent in many towns. We see it stated that a number of small pieces of gold have recently been taken from Sandy river, just below the falls at New Shar on. by Mr. II. H. Beard. That there is gold in the river at that place has long been I known, as small particles have been picked lip by several individuals at different times; but whether it can be obtained in quantities sufficient to pay for milling lias not yet been ascertained. The editor of the Maine Farmer saw re cently in the bands of one of our Augusta merchants, a two dollar bill on the Kennebec Bank, Hallowed, which 'failed' as i( was then called, now known as •‘suspended." nearly fifty vears ago. The bill is dated Oct. i, ]S24. is payable to A. Nourse, and signed by ,1. Bohinson, 4'ashler, and 1). Y\ Warren. President. It is very much worn. The Whig says Timothy Wall's boy. aged nine years, stole 873 from a bureau in bis father's house in Bangor and went on "a good time" with it, buying'all sorts of knick kaeks. hiring horses. ,Ac. He distributed it liberaljy among his companions, as a preven tative from exposure. A policeman recover ed 823 of the money. We are glad to be able to congratulate our friends, the publishers of the Daily Kennebec Journal, upon the successful results of their enterprise. The paper lias been published six months, has proved itself a public and business necessity, and may now be regarded as an established institution of our city. We hope it will continue to receive a liberal and paying support.—Maine Farmer. The American says the North Ellsworth Farmer's Club will hold their first exhibition at Tyler's Hall.

Horal anti State Netoe. The legislature is not in session, hut there is considerable log-rolling, in the river. Coal is now selling in the city at a cheap rate. 'I'wo years ago Hailey's establishment brought a hippotamus to this city. Families in this city havygoneto Old Orch ard beach and also to Mt. Desert. The city committee were engaged yesterday in collecting the subscriptions for the State Fair. The telegraph lines from the l\ S. Military Asylum at Togus are now connected with the Western Union Office in this city. The teams from the Insane hospital are en gaged in hauling the hay from the State lot. A good crop has been gathe red there this sea son. The next session of S. J. Court for Kenne bec County, will commence in this city on Tuesday, Angus, lM. Jt is understood that Judge Dickerson of Belfast will preside. Many farmers in Brunswick who have usual ly had a sufficient quantity of hay for their own use, will this year either have to buy or lessen their farm stock. N. K. Sawyer, Esq., editor of tin* Ells worth Amcsican, is in the city attending to a sick son, who is now prostrated at his hoard ing house with typhoid fever. A mean old chap in Lewiston gets ofl* by paying his preacher half a dollar every time he goes to church. We know of sonic old chaps who are meaner than that by one-half —a doBaf* A gentleman in this city lias bum “figur ing” quite extensively for the new post office* for several days, ami thus far lias been very successful—in painting the figures on tlx* glas> boxes. How it is that a person “fails,” and keeps right on in business “as though nothing had happened.” is a mystery that remains to be solved. Some people are born to tail—it's their forte. Inquiries are frequently made for rents in this city. They are very scarce. The edi tor of the Sewer has x Mnall room vacant in the upper story of his earthly tabernacle, but it is hardly tit for a decent tenant. It is learned from the Secretary of the Knox and Lincoln Musical Association that the annual convention of the Association will he held at Damariseotta. Oct. 4th. 5th. 6th ami 7th, under the direction of I’rof. 1,. W. Wheeler of Boston. The third story of the new wing to the In sane Hospital is now ready for the painters and paper-hangers. The two lower stories have been plastered and made ready for the finishing. After the wing is completed it will be speedily occupied by those who are in waiting to avail tlwmsclvesof the benefits t this noble institution. It will interest everybody to know that the Sedgeeunkedunk is a romantic stream in Brewer, and that the Sowadabscook is in Carmel. The source of Jcrusaleuicrickcts has not yet been discovered, although it is thought that it must he somewhere in the vi cinity of the Mnsluscomungumjuwippslecoit. E. Atkin* Son, box nanufacturers. whoso works were formerly at the dam in this city, now occupy one story of the steam saw mill of the Kennebec Land and Lumber Company, on the east side of the river. The place lias been fitted up for their use. and they have just taken possession of the same. This firm engages extensively in the manufacture ot bones. The sophistry and ingenuity of the Whig, adopted by the Journal, will not save him i .%lr. Blaine) from a just condemnation.—Main Sewer. Five or six thousand majority next Sept, for Mr. Itlainc, will lie the usual “condemna tion” tliat the republicans of this district are in the habit of saving for Mr. Blaine. Let tile strongest man of the opposition he brought forward, for the purpose of demonstrating the precise manner in which Mr. Blaine will lie condemned. Mr. Zina O. Sprague is building a neat and commodious dwelling house on his lot on Sewall street, in this city. Although he is employed ten hours each day in the railroad shop, the house has been erected during the season, almost by his own hands, in the hours that men usually take for refreshment and rec reation. This is manifesting a spirit of energy and enterprise which if adopted by other me chanics who are paying a large portion of their income for house rent, would result in the es tablishment of many happy homes throughout (he city- Mr. Sprague is putting a roof on his house, with the prospect of completing the whole before snow flies. The Standard maintains its pet name, the “Main Sewer,” by receiving into its stomach this week several gallons of sour ale. Adver tisements, correspondence, anything of a low character, unfit for publication in any decent sheet, is sure to be produced in its columns. I'erhaps this would lie well enough if the Sewer had a good outlet: but when it is full, it throws its dirty stuff upon the counters of our stores, into the nice new boxes of the post office, on the tables of counting rooms, and even into the doors of private residences. We trust that the city in its system of sewerage, will make some provision for an outlet of this sewer which is becoming so offensive, es pecially in this warm weather. Allen Lambard, Esq., of this city, who is interested in the benevolent enterprises of the day, has we understand, purchased the dwell ing bouse and lot of l)r. I. Snell, corner of Winthrop and l'leasant streets in this city, for the purpose of establishing a home for aged and indigent women. He paid therefor the sum of fcti.OOO, and proposes to fit up the establishment at his own expense and give it for the purpose indicated, on condition that a sufficient fund shall he contributed for the support of such an institution, ^fr.

The residence of Mrs. W. It. Prescott, on Middle street, near Lincoln, has been pur chased by Mr. Strout. of the firm of Page, Wilder Co. The llallowell House is now open and is kept in good style. Mr. Pari in is preparing i for the manufacture of shoos in thi west end of the structure. One of the oldest and most enterprising business men in the city, was com .i d to the Insane Asylum a short time since. It is hoped that his malady may hi* conquered by treatment there.

Large Number of Buildings I tterly Destroyed. Mo.ntrkai., July 14. A most fearful storm swept over Montreal last evening; it commenced about 3 o'clock, and actually levelled every tiling in its way. I A large number of buildings were utterly destroyed, and hundreds severely damaged. No loss of life has yet been reported. Two of the large freight sheds of the (iraud Trunk ltailway were prostrated. The loss is immense. All telegraphic communication with the city was stopped as far west as l.a chine. There are rumors of still great dam ages at other points from the storm. FROM BANGOR. Destructive Tornado. Several Douses mid Hums Blown Down. (iliKAT DAMAGK TO CHOI'S. Bangor, Me., July 14. ()ne of the most destructive tornadoes1 which we have ever experienced, passed over j this vicinity this afternoon, between three and four o’clock. It wa- accompanied with 1.aiI. thunder and lightning, and torrents of lain. In this city but little damage was done, one house being struck by lightning with slight damage, and trees being twisted and broken down. In the adjoining towns tile storm was much more severe, and the dam age much greater. In Hampden, Orrington, Bucksport, Brewer and lloldcn, houses and barns were blown down, fences demolised, and in some instances, all the glass on the side of the houses exposed to the storm, were entirely broken out by the hail, which tell so thickly that it lay in winrows. One man in Orrington who had cut his hay and stacked it up in the field, had it taken up by the wind and scattered far and j wide. One house containing a family was icmoved from its foundation, and another was blown down without injury to the in- j mates. The damage to the growing crops 1 must be considerable. FROM PORTLAND.

Count Ilencdctti Recalled. Paris. July 14. There is great excitement on the Bourse, and rentes have fallen to 37 francs 15 cents. The Journal- say that the French cabinet having received as the first concession a per sonal renunciation of the Spanish crown by Prince Hohrnzollern agreed to continue the n extreme. The majority of the evening pupejjp maintain a warlike tone, and groups of people in the streets seem strongly in favor of war. The report that the Egyptian troops had landed at Bay Ashub on the Bed Sea. and captured the Australian trading station is offi cially contradicted. Mr. Gladstone stated in the House of Com mons to-day in reply to the question of Disraeli that the British government in com mon with other European cabinets sustain* *1 the position taken by the Duke De Gramftmnt, which was that Spain was entitled to choose anyone for a King except a German Prince. There was a wild panic on the streets after change hours to-day. An official state ment that the Bank of England has received £131,000 is not sufficient to restore confi dence, and much uneasiness still prevails. It is positively asserted that Count Benc detti has been ordered hack to France, and he only awaits the departure of Baron Yan Werther, Prussian Minister from Paris. Advices from Madrid arc pacific far as Spain is concerned, and llatsa Bayvant the Spanish Minister of the Interior has sent envoys to the different Counts to notify them of the acceptance by Spain of Prince Leo pold’s renunciation.

J);u(]r Jiniiifkc $ountal LOYrE AND AGE. 1 played with you mid cowslips growing, When I was six and you were four; When garlands weaving, flower-balls throwing. Were pleasure? soon to please no more. Thro’groves and meads, o'er grass ami heather, With little playmates, to and fro, We wandered band in hand together But that was sixty years ago. You grew a lovely, roseate maiden, And still our early love was strong Still with no rare our days were laden, They glided joyously nb>gg. And 1 did love you very dearly— How dearly, words want power to show 1 thought your heart was touched as nearly But that was fifty years ago. Then other lovers came around you Your beauty grew from year to year And many a splendid circle found you The centre of its glittering sphere. I saw yon then, first vows forsaking, On rank and wealth your hand bestow O. then I thought my heart was breaking But that was forty years ago. And l lived on to wed another No cause she gave me to complain And when I heard you were a mother, I did not wish the children mine. My own young flock, in fair progression, Made up a pleasant Christmas row, My Joy in them was past expression But that was twenty years ago. You grew a matron, plump and comely, You dwelt in fashion’s brightest blaze My earthly lot was lar more homely, But I, too, had my festal days. No merrier eyes have ever glistened Around the hearthstone’s wintcry glow, Than when my youngest child was christened But that was twenty years ago. Time passed. My eldest girl was married, And now I am a grandsire gray; One pet of four years old I’ve carried Among the wild-flowered meads to play, In our fields of childish pleasure. When* now, as then, the cow-slips blow, She fills her basket’s ample measure— And this is not ten years ago. But though first love’s Impassioned blindness Has passed away in colder night, I still have thought of you with kindness, And shall until our last good night. The ever rolling, silent hours Will bring a time we shall not know, When our young days of gathering flow ers Will be an hundred years ago. Imam unm bamki T rustecs W. F. HALLE IT. BCSSELE E ATON, O.

Editor cosmofmtk: I desire, as an unsolicited tribute to the merits of Helnibold’s Buchu. and for the benefit of those similarly afflicted as myself, to say that after consulting many eminent physicians, and trying nearly nil the best advertised remedies, in the vain hope of llnding relief from aggrivated kidney and bladder diseases, from which 1 have suffered excessively for many years, good fortune finally suggested to me llelmhold’s Buchu, which I commenced using with little faith, and no apparent j beneficial results for about a month. At the expir- i ution of that time, however, I thought 1 commenced to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to persevere in its use, and now, at the expiration ol tour months, although I am an infirm old man, nearly 78 years of age. and consequently medicines cannot he expected to favorably affect me as they otherwise would, 1 have found such unspeakable relief and permanent, benefit from Mr. Helmbold’s valuable discovery, that 1 feel 1 ought to publicly record the fact, as' an acknowledgement to him anil a valuable suggestion to the public.

Dr. Helmbold—Dear Sir: It Is with much pleasure that 1 write you upon facts respecting mv self. I do not know hardly how to express mysefl. 1 have been for the last ten or twelve years the greatest sufferer man could he and live; nut more sometimes than others. The complaint was the “Kidneys” and “Bladder.” i have been sometimes from twelve to fourteen hours, and wanted to make water every minute, hut could not. Have consult ed doctors, both in Massachusetts and this State, and taken pills, I may sav, by the quart, also liq uored medicines, but found no relict from any, and got worse the last six months. 1 was so that 1 could scarcely get about. 1 could not rest night or day. It would soon have been “all up” with me if I had not seen your advertisement in “The Berkshire Courier” headed "Kidneys.” 1 read it through and thought 1 would try it. 1 purchased a bottle, but, intiul yi»n( li.id not much faith in it. Whv should 1. when I had been trying so many things and cost me j so much Well, 1 began taking it, and before 1 had taken the find bottle I felt had; but I finished it and got another. By the time I took half of the second j I still got worse (apparently)• When 1 walked it I seemed as if my rigid kidney was falling from its j place, and 1 felt really bad I felt so, before 1 had finished tho second, that i had made up my mind it was of no use trying any more—and all this time the “Buchu” was doing its work, but I did not know it; so I gave it up and went to Hartford on Saturday to see one of the best doctors in the city. Ho said it was the neck of the bladder, and I should have to undergo an operation. He gave me mod-1 icine, and 1 went home quite downhearted. On Sunday I was unable to go to church. I had not taken any of his medicine, hut on my return coutin-1 ued using the “Buchu,” and in the afternoon 1 had a desire to make water, but could not. \bout one hour alter this I tried again, with the same result; i 1 hut the next time 1 took the vessel it wan the same as turning a faucet and stopping it off again. It j was so for three times, and the third time there was I something came through tin* passage and struck against the side of the ves.-el. 1 examined it, and it is the ugliest stone or gravel vou ever suw, cov ered over with little peiecs which eolleted together. It looks the color of a mud turt le, and is us hard as a Hint. So you see the “Buchu” was doing its work although I was feeling so badly. 1 procured uu i other bottle thinking their might be some more be hind, hut since that has passed, which is eight weeks ago last Sunday, I have been as well ns ever 1 was in iny life. I have the stone securely wrapped i und those who have seen it in this place are sur prised. 1 cannot tell you all, hut this is a true story of njy ease, and you are welcome to make such use of my name as you think proper. 1 mu pretty well known in Berkshire; also in Connecticut. The ad vertisement saved me. Why not publish more? The Springfield Republican is a wide-spread paper. If any one w ishes to see this wonder, they can do so.

Helm hoi.iv—Dear sir: in regard to the question asked me as to my opinion about Ku din. I would say 1 have used and sold the article in various forms for the past thirty years. I do not think there is any form or preparation of it I have not used, or known to l>c used, in the various diseases where such medicate agent would be indicated. You are aware, as well as myself, that it has been extensively employed in the various diseases of the bladder and kidneys, and the reputation it has ac quired, in my judgment, is warranted by the fac ts. I have seen and used, us betore stated.'every form of Ihiehu—the powdered leaves, tincture, fluid ex tracts—and I am not congnizant of any preparation of that plant at all equal to yours. iVelve years* experience ought. I think, to give me the right to judge of its merits; and, w ithout prejudice or par tiality, I give yours precedence over all others. I value your Buchu for its effects on patients. I have cured with it. and seen cured w ith it, more diseases of the bladder ami kidneys than 1 have ever seen cured with any other Buchu or anv other proprietary compound of w hatever name.

Helm hold, Druggist— Dear Sir: 1 have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with gravel, bladder and kidney affections, (luring w hich time 1 have used various’medicinal preparations, and been under the treatment of the most eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. flaring seen your preparations extensively ad vertised, I consulted my family physical) in regard to using your Eqtract Buchu. i did this because I bad used all kinds of adver tised remedies and had found them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to use no remedies hereafter unless 1 knew of the ingredients. It w as j this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was compo.-ed of buchu, cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys- i ician as an excellent combination; and with his ad* J vice, alter an examination of the article and con- suiting again with the drimgist. I concluded to try it I commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which time I vas confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben- I olleial effect, and alter using it three weeks was able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing to you a full statement of my case at the time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would effect a perfect cure, knowing that it would be of greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. 1 am now able’to report that a cure is* effected, after using the remedy for five months. 1 have not used any now for three mouths, and leel as well in all respects as I ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of anv unpleasant taste j and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the system. I do not mean to be w ithout it whenever occasion may require its use on such affections. M.
