Peace Scouted “It [peace] has become a hateful word, and should be left exclusively to the use of Buffalo orators iu a neighboring State, if any of that sort still drivel and snivel Let us get rid of the whole vile oaut, and say at once we are for war, and nothing but war, until, as Davis is said to have said, “the lust of this generation falls in his tracks,” and then we mean to pass it to the next as an inheritance. It is for those who have unjustly invaded our oountry to offer ns peace; and alien they do, they will still oiler it in vain until their armed men are withdrawn from the soil of these Confederate States, and the felon flag of stripes is hauled down from every fort within our borders. After that it will be time euougli to prate about peace. Now the very word is nonsense.—[.Richmond Examiner. Rebel Terms ot Peace. “Save on our own terms we can acoept no peace whatever-, and must fight till doomsday rather than yield an iotauf them, and our terms are: Recognition by thecncmy of theindeiiendence oi the Confederate States. Withdrawal of the Yankee forces from every f tot of Contederateground.includingKentucky tnd Missouri. Withdrawal of the Yankeesoldiers from Mary, laud until that State shall decide by a free vote whether she shall remain in the old Union or ask admission into the Confederacy. Consent on the part of the Federal Govern ment to give up to the Confederacy its propor tion of the navy as it stood at the time of seces sion, or to pay for the same. Yielding up of all pretension on the part of the Federal Government to that portion of the old Territories which lies west of the Confeder ate States. An equitable settlement en the basis of our absolute indeiiendence and equal rights, of all accounts of the public debt and public lands, and the advantages accruing from foreign treat ies. These provisions, we apprehend, comprise the minimum of what we must require before we lay down our arms. That ia to say, the North must yield all,—we nothing. The whole pre tension of that country to preveut by force the separation of the Slates must be abandoned, which will be equivalent to an avowal that oar enemies were wrong from the first, and, of course, as they waged a causeless and wicked war upon us, they ought in strict justice to be required, according to usage in such eases, to re imburse to us the whole of oar expenses and losses in the course of that war. Once more we soy it is all or nothing. This Confeder acy or the Yankee nation, one or other, goei down, down to perdition. That is to say,one 01 the other must forfeit its national existence ant lie at the mercy of ita mortal enemy.”—r Hick mond Enquirer, Oct. 16,1863, Food lor Hefloctiori, lor “Pence” Demo era Is. “The North may cease to carry on active hos tilities long before it will consent to reeogniz our independence, and enter into formal term of peace with us. They are in terribl dread of an invasion by us of the North, an more busy in trying to devise ways and mean (o repel such apprehended invasion than In rt A war of invasion of tha North, will suspeu their wages; their daily pay as soldiers, in greei backs, will amount to nothing.

I I to Exemption from State or Municipal Taxation. But aside from all the advantages we hare enum erated. a special Act of Congress exempts all bonds and treasury nates /r~m UkoI taxation. On the average, ibis exemption is worth about two per cent, per annum, according to taxation in various parts of the country. It is believed that no securities odfer so great in ducements to lenders as those issued by the Govern ment. In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of private parties, or stock compan ies, or separate communities only, is pledged for pay ment, while lh$ whole property of the country is hold to secure the discharge of all the obligations of the United States. While the Government offers the most liberal term* or Its loans, it believes that the very strongest ap peal will be bo the loyalty and patriotism of the pco i pto.

Judge Howahd said in 1861—so says the Argus:— “We will stand by our Union, oiy Constitu tion and our laws, and we will maintain the government at all hazards.” Here is the proof of Judge Howard's de votion to the Union. He said he was thus de voted more than three years ayoNeither he nor hU friends point to a single act he has don. during this long three years and more ol struggle and war, while traitor hands have been seeking the nation's life, to confirm the words bo long ago uttered. On the con trary, a rebel-sympathizing paper, whose edi tjr openly says he would welcome Jeff. Da vis to the control of the whole country, de clares that Judge Howard denies the POW ER and the RIGHT of the nation to meet this gigantic rebellion by force, and is in fa vor of immediate peace. L. D. M. Sweat declares A is devotion to the Union,and talks about fighting—perhaps dying-for the flag. He was understood the oth er night to asseverate hi* love for the Union with marked vehemence, and clenched it with assurances of the most solemn character: and yet he always votes with Fernando Wood, Dan. Voorbees and G. H. Pendleton; voted agaiust the expulsion of a member of tbe House of Representatives who “hoped to God the government would not succeed in con quering the South,” and dodged vote to censure a man as unworthy a place on the floor of the House, whom the Chicago Con vention voted unworthy a seat in their wig wam! But Mr. Sweat is a Union man, of coarse, for don’t he say he is, and swear to it Well, in 1850, on the 7th of August, anoth er good Democrat—a man of influence—a man of presence—a man of position, stood in Deering Hall, In a meeting of which Joseph Howahd was a vice presiding officer,—a meeting referred to in the Argus as ‘•That Glorious Mettiny”—and then aud there he pledged his fidelity and boasted of his devo tion to the Union. We quote a few of his pa triotic words: "We live in a common country, under a common Constitution; we worship at the al tar of a common Uuiou. God grant that our children, cculuries hence, may be able to an nouuce, one to the other, the same fact.” "Here is the Constitution of my country. God bless that Constitution. Point me to one single provision of it that this day I am not willing to stand by the altar of my country, and swear eternal fidelity to.” “Come! let us kneel together at the altar of our country, and, without exception, without prevarication, taking not this and that on the UI.UC1 1/IUT19IUIJ, UUl 1-UklUg UU lue UOOBUIU- tion, swear eternal allegiance to it.” “If there is oue characteristic that marks it [the speaker's life] beyond all others, is uudy rog devotion to the Constitution and the Union.” And so he went on in a similar strain,prov- 1 ing his devotion to the Union beyond a qu» tion; if words constitute proof. Finally lie referred to the then ca udidalc of the Democrat ic party for the Presidency, and on that point seemed iuspitia!. Hear his burning elo quence “Every drop of blood that flows in his veins is true to the Constitution of his coun try. I know him. [lie proved it afterwards.] I know the principles that actuate him. i know that wueu placed iu ihe 1‘iesideulial chair, he wbl be true to the whole country; no sectional hues will ever he drawn acres; his heart.” Fellow-citizens of Maine; this man, so de voted, so wedded to the Union, so ready to swear to uphold it, and ou his knees to pledge eternal allegiance, was HOWELL COBB of Georgia, recently a member of Jeff. Davis’ j cabinet! And this Mr. Buchanan, for whom he so fully avouched,—how that blood, so true to the Constitution, must have oozed out J before the middle of his term! Howell Cobb made all the protestations that we have quot- 1 edaud even more, in this city, in a Democrat ic meeting, and yet in less than four years, under the administration of the very man across whose heart no sectional lines were ever to be drawn, and who was to be “true to the whole country,” was plotting treason against the government,—doing this while in the cabinet—and actually threw up his com mission as a cabinet officer under that same old functionary, and went home to engage in the work of destroying the Union to which, in Deeriug Hail, upon his bended knees, he was ready to swear eternal fealty! And we ask, why were not Cobb’s aatevera tious of devotion to the Union guile as relialile as those of either Mr. Howard or Mr. Sweat to-day Was not he in as good standing as j t ey now occupy Indeed, was he not in better standing Hadn't he more influence, a wider reputation, more character political ly, to maintain Hadn’t he been more trust ed, more conlided In, more elevated? And yet from that position of patriotic pledges, and deathless Union devotion, he fell into'the most damning treason. Are they better than ie f What proof of loyalty have they shown •hat he failed to show Do they say the J [Jnlou must be maintained? He would go town on his knee* to say even more. j No better Democrat was found in that day ■ban Howell Cobb. He had hosts of friends j in this State. He went iuto the Treasury un- Jer Buchanan. He remembered those friends, i Ho made them tide-waiters, and inspectors of customs, and all sorts of olllcials in the rev enue service. They swore by and for him. j They were of one heart with him, and most of them remain so to-day! The point we make is this: Messrs. How ard and Sweat, and the candidates ol the Democratic party generally, give the same kind of evidence—no other—of devotion to the country, to the Union and the Constitu tion, that Howell Cobb gave in 1850. They say but do not. They talk but do not act. They know the way bat walk not in it. They point it out but discourage, and hold back, and embarrass all who attempt to enter it. Such proof will not answer. It is tire kind that traitors have furnished before them. A higher, a more substantial, a more earnest type is demanded. Not every oue who saith Lord, Lord, shall enter the. kingdom, but he that o- s Pie- _W. T. Secretary Seward and the Bebellion. Mr. Seward made a speech at a Union f Meeting in Auburn, N. Y., a few days since, 1 n which he said: j 1 “The chief complaint against the President 1 s that he will not accept peace on the basis of f he integrity of the Union, without having ilso the abaudonmeut of slavery. When and i vbere have the insurgents offered him peace m the basis of the integrity of the Union 11 s’obody has offered it. The rebels never will j P pfl’er it. Nobody on their behalf can offer it. i> riiey are determined and pledged to rule this j e' iepublic or ruin it. I told you here a year p go that practically slavery was no longer in uestlon—that It was perishing under the op- 51 ration of the war. That assertion has been P onfirmed. j 0i ORIGINAL AND SELECTED. ST Amcng the deaths of soldiers reported at I'ashington is tliat of Walter Davis, 31st Me. 13?' There was frost in some localities in this icinity on Wednesday night, jy Darius N. Parks, reported killed, return d to his home in Bath, on Wednesday, jy On from Richmond in full numbers of ietermined men, is the report we get from a latriolic town on the banks of the Kennebec. jy There is to be a grand Agricultural Fair it Gardiner, on the 4th and 5th of October, on he agricultural grounds. jy The demand for the U. S. public bonds is greater than at any time during the past three years. jy Hon. Albert S. White, District Judge of Indiana, died at his residence in Lafayette, la., i on Monday last. jy The Bath Times says, we hear a good re- port from every part of the county. Sagadahoc j is all right. jy A salute of one hundred guns—on sc- count of recent victories—was fired yesterday at the Kittery Nary Yard. ST Horace Greeley and Preston King were nominated at the N. Y. State Union Convention for electors at large. 3T It is rather a sad commentary on the sal utary effect of the hanging of Spencer, that the first murder thereafter should be committed in the town where that unfortunate belonged. jy We cannot publish anonymous communi cations. They must be accompanied by a respon sible name, not for publication, but as an evi dence of good faith. jy A gentleman in Bowdoinham writes us that that town has filled its quota and has six men over, all furnished without going beyond the town limits. jy Let no one fail to read the letter on the first page, from J. T. Mills, which gives an in teresting account of an interview with Presi dent Lincoln. jy Jeff. Davis said, in a speech at Macon, Ga., that Atlanta was the military key of the continent, and mutt never be given up. It was not given up; Sherman has taken it! sy a barn belonging to Mr. Charles W. Saf ford, Augusta, was destroyed by fire on Wednes day. The house was saved by the active efforts of firemen and citizens generally. ST The re-enlisted men of the 5tb and 6th Maine regiments constitute a separate battalion employed for special service, as among the most reliable troops in the army. iy A fire broke out in the building occupied by the Boston Recorder, on Wednesday morn ing last, by which that establishment with oth ers was considerably damaged. jy Jeff. Davis has three armies in the field fighting against the Union; a southern army under Hood, a central army under Lee, and a northern army led by McClellan. y The Advertiser quotes the 8t. Louis Re publican as a Republican pajier opposed to Lin coln. The Republican is theieading copperhead paper in the Mississippi Valley, and the Adver tiser must know it. y The Boston papers say Jietty larcenies were never so frequent as now in that city. The same, we think, is true, judging from our city and the accounts we get from others, of ail the large towns and cities of New England. y It is reported that Secretary Seward said in his speech at Auburn, N. Y., last Saturday, that we shall have no draft because the army is being reinforced at the rate of five or ten thou sand men per day by volunteers. y The little Kings are oat promptly with their “Lady's Book" for September,, bright as a “Morning Glory," and neat as a stellar button on tbs drapery of night. Everlasting success to it. y Not a shot or shell was thrown into At lanta, to clear away the obstacles in tbs way of Sherman's victorious troops, that did not go crashing through the Northern copperhead wig wam, doing infinite damage to the candidate and knocking the plaWorm into kindliag wood. y Stanton, the copperhead orator of Wed nesday evening, made one of tiie most macing speeches ever made in the City Hall. The audi ence moved towards the door so fast that people upon the street thought the meeting had adjourn ed an hour before he “dried up.” y The schools in Boston, this season, are represented to be unusually thinly attended by boys on account of the demand for, and high prs^euf labor. The desire for the future success of these boys yields to present necessity or the demands of aval is*. y The riots in Belfast, (reiand, are of the old sort, between the Protestants or Oraugemen and the Roman Catholics. The former burned O’Connell in effigy, and the latter burned Wil liam the Third in ethgy. Fights followed, and for days the city was iu a terribie tgraolt. The N. Y. Herald's Washington ootres pondent, cot the best authority, by the way, says it is roportod in Republican circles there that Gen. Fremont is shortly to withdraw his name from the Presidential canvass, and that Hon. B. F. Wade, of Ohio, is about to take the stump for Lincoln and Johnson. y The Portsmouth Journal says great im provements have been made in the ordnance de partment at Kittery Navy Yard- A handsome two-story building has been erected fur the por ter's residence, aud a handsome chapel is design ed to be built in the green inclosurr where the flag staff now stands. yThe steamer Washoe, running on the Sac ramento river, exploded her boiler on Monday night. One hnndred and fifty passenger* were killed and wounded. Fifty persons are dead or will soon die. The boat was running at a high rate of speed.

I Deserved Compliment. The following note, with a request to pub- j Ish, was handed to us by one of our most re- ipected and venerable citizens; a man who -eads much and thinks much, and whose fa rorable judgment is a decided compliment I for any writer. He does not know, nor nas he asked to know the name of the lady whom he addresses: Portland, Sept. 8,1801. Dear Madam:—As a teltow-citizeu ol com mon national interests with yourself, I briefly address you at this time as authoress oi various articles in the frees, over the signature of “Epsilon,”—especially of that of today ad dressed to Young Men,—as to their duties at the present crisis, with the expression of a hope that it may be read aud duly considered, by all of that class Vho have access to the pa per. In common with others. I assure you that it is with pride aud pleasure that I reflect that we have a writer of either sex, who can and does prepare aud publish such articles as yours “of which I hope to see many more. With high respect, Yours, G. Mexico. The Bandera Xacional of Matamoras has the following news which has not been re ceived from any other source: “A signal defeat of the French and their Algerine allies is said to have taken place at the hacienda of Brea, in the state of Guer rero. The Mexican forces, uuder Genera Diego Alvarez, son of the old lion, had de feated the imperial forces in four pitched bat tles, killing many in the fights and taking a large number of prisoners. These were at once pnt to death, the invitation to a war without quarter beiug accepted. The French forces came from Acapulco, which is in Freuch pose-loo.” There are accounts also of other victories gained over the French in other sections of Mexico. The new emperor is not yet fairly seated on bis throne, and his French master may be compelled to send over more troops to insure the crown an easy position on the head of Maximilian.

The City Hall Was packed full last evening long before the time of opening the meeting and many went away unable either to enter the hall or get where the speakers could be heard. In calling the meeting to order Mr. Foster announced that this evening Col. Jaquess of the 73i Illinois Regiment, the man who re cently visited Jefferson Davis, would address the Union men. This announcement was re ceived with vociferous applause; and so was that, that Hon. Henry Wilson of Massachu setts, would also address the meeting. Hon. Benj. Kingsbury, Jr., was appointed chairman. After a few neat and patriotic re marks, he introduced as the first speaker for the evening Hon. Daniel W. Gooch of Massa chusetts, who was received with gieat ap plause as he took the stand. Mr. Gooch made an able and argumentative speech upon the present condition ol our country and the views of the “peace" party in relation to it. Alluding to a separation of the Union, he asked, “Wiio knows where to divide the States? Who Is the man to drive the first stake?” “F. O. J.”, cried out a voice, which brought down the house. Mr. Gooch was greeted with frequent applause during his remarks. Hon. I. T. Williams of New York, was the next speaker. His speech was able and prac tical, as far as w» could hear 1l His voice being rather feeble he could not be distinctly heard all over tbe ball. Those who were near him and understood every thing he said, were profuse In their applause. He made many ex cellent points and hits, and the only regret ex pressed was, that the cold under which he was suffering should have so affected his voice that *11 could not enjoy the good things that came from him. The ba id of the 17th U.S. Infantry by their excellent music added to the interest of the meeting. To-alght, In order to get a good seat it will be necessary to go early. There is a great desire to bear from the gallant Illinois Colonel Who visited the Secesh lion In his den, and alio the eloquent Senator from Massachusetts Union Meeting*, There was a rousing meeting of tbe true and loyal men at Springvale on Tuesday. More than 1500 persons were present, and two excellent hands furnished splendid music. The meeting was addressed by Gen. W. Gault pad lion. Maik H. Dunnell. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed. Wednesday the Union men had a gathering at Limerick—the largest ever held at that place. The number preseut was estimated at nearly SuuG. The speakers were Messrs Gantt and Dunnell, and their remarks were received with tremendous applause. Excel lent music from the bands enlivened tbe scene. At Buxton Center there was a tremendous gathering yesterday, from V000 to *300 per sons were preseut. The vast crowd was elo quently addressed by Gen. Gantt, Hon. John A. Peters, Hun. M. H.

Rain has been falling all day, and still continues, with ft cold wind. Rumors have beeu prevalent for the past two days that part of Early's troops had u rivedin our front, and were massing on our left Hank, necessitating another struggle for the po.session of the Weldon Railroad. Prep arations were made to receive them, but thus far, with the exception of a few guerrillas, no enemy has appeared in that direction. Last night the enemy in front of pur line where it crosses the laiiroad, were very jubi- I lam, loud cheering extending along the line to the right to wards the Appomattox. Our pick ets hailed uiem aud asked uw cause ol tbe commotion. The answer came that Atlanta has been letakeu by liood. Notwithstanding the Impossibility of the story beiug true, it rapidly gained circulation, aud caused some depression for a time, but soon after a desert er came tn and reported that one of the rebels had lied a cauteeu to a dog's tail, and started him through their lines, thinking thus to frighten our men; but the dog kept) on bis own side, and his frightened cries asjhe sped along, caused loud cheering by the rebels. Yesterday a party of colored recruits ar rived on their way to their regiments. When they got near the front, the rebels obtained a view of them aud threw shells into their midst, causing a scattering. They were sub sequently mustered and resumed their inarch. W. D. McGbeqor.

The American's special dispatch from Gen. Sheridan's army, dated in the Held near Berry ▼ille, Sept. 8th, says: In my account of Saturday’s engagement at Berryville, I erroneously stated the num ber of our wounded at 300. From official re turns it appears that our total loss will not ex ceed 100, seriously wounded and killed. The enemy’s loss was very heavy. They are known to have lost 300 in one brigade, and their to tal loss cannot fall short of 500. The rebel General Humphreys was mortally wounded, but escaped capture. This decided repulse and defeat of the ene my by Gen. Crook's command, reflects great I credit ou Gen. Sheridan, Gen. Crook, and the latter's gallant command, who fought sDlen- aiuijr. With respect to the loss of the ambulance train it appears that there was a sufficient guard furnished to prevent its capture, if a proper disposition had been made of it. The train has, however, all been re captured with the exception of one. The enemy are believed to be encamped in the vicinity of Winchester. There Hm been no change In affairs since my last.

MISCELLANY. Woman’s Trials. In point of real trial, to temper, nerves anil patience, there is no comparison to be made between a woman’s duties and a man’s. As 1 sit, 1 hear the click of a shoemaker's hammer. From morning till night, it seems never a; rest. The shoemaker leads a laborious life, but how sleadtast and calm. He drives the peg, and he knows it will go in. He made so many shoes yesterday, he will make so many to-day. At just such a time he goes home to dinner with jnst such an amount of work ac complished. But his wife, busy iu her kitch eu, has a baby who is governed by no laws, and upsets all her calculations. If lie sleeps through the morning she will spring through her washing, and ironing, and boiling, aud bak ing but if he awakes, as he probably will, at the most critical moment, eycry thing has to give way. It is of no use to plan, for a chub by fist knocks down all her arrangements. Her baby is the most despotic of all tyrants; he bss not the slightest regard for public opinion. It is of no manner of importance to him whether the fire goes out, and the roonf gets swept or or not. If he wishes to be rocked, he must be, regardless of consequences. Then very likely there are three or four more little ones who must be washed and dressed, and fed, besides having dress aud lood prepared for them. If they are ail iu the soundest health, they need constant watchfulness; for children are unlike pigs. They won’t go where they belong. They are constantly making little dives right snd left, and getting into mischief. Pick them out of the sugar-firkin, and they tumble straitway into the molasses jug. If there is a cistern on the premises, they will be sure to pitch iu head-first sooner or later; and if there is no cistern, it shall go hard but they will find a tub of water somewhere big enough to sit down iu. .Scissors and knives—every tiling that has an edge to it, draws them as if they were made of steel. A perverse prompting moves them to ponnd every thing that eau be hurt by pound ing, and scratch, and cut, and tear, according to the respective sensibilities of the object- So it goes, even when they are well; but when, besides this, we think of the great army of measles, and scarlet fever, and chicken pox, and mumps, and colic, and cholera infantum, and Inoculation, and teething that lie in wait for the young immortal and his mother, the prospect is appalling; for the brunt of it all comes on the mother. Whst is true of the shoemaker and his wife is true of the black smith and his wife, aud the tailor and his wire. I know that there are occupations that are more complex, aud demand the nxercises ol all the powers. But the merchant and the law yer, however absorbing and perplexing may be their avocation, have to do with grown-up peo ple. The merchants’ clerks arc often quite as gentlemauly aud well educated as himself. His brother merchants are acute and self-in volved, but reasonable. The lawyer’s client may be ignorant and stubborn, but be is an ac countable being, and swayed by a homely but powerful logic; but the wife is the mistress of servants incredibly “raw” and inexperienced, even when well disposed, aud the mother of terrible infants. Let a man try to work with such tools and such incumbrances, snd see how he succeeds. It is true that a rnau's responsibilities are in one sense greater, it tie makes a misstep, he brings down with him partner, clerks, wile and children, sometimes shaking even church and society; while the woman may let this, that and the other duty slip without the sk)'» tailing. But on the other Hand, it is the great ness of the matter at slake which supports the mau and the littleness which disheartens the woman. She has the same rouud, perpetually changing, yet perpetually the oame—of little cares aud duties, which cannot he dispensed with, yet which never amount to anything. It is all very well to cajole her with “lasbion ing the young mind,” and “traiuiug the hand that it to guide the world,” aud "modelling the greatness of the next age,” and all that sort of thing, but it is a long way to the nex t age,and when luture statesmen cornea crying to his mother with Spalding’s Prepared Glue stuck all over his face aud hair and clean aprou, and his fingers bleeding from the cuts of the broken bottle, it is difficult to per ceive, -“the tpirit.. Which «hall rale men mind*,and m&k* them bow A.n to one God, throned amid his peer*." Now if capital punishment is ever justifi able, It is when a man comes home from office, or shop, or field, to his nervous, hurried, anx ious, care-worn wife, and harshly or coldly asks her why dinner is not ready, or what in the world she lets those children make such a noise for. I see a great deal of advice given to women about meeting their husbands wi'h a smile; but what manner of value has a smiie on the lips, if there be not a smile at the heart: and what mauuer of man is he who wauls his' wife to crush back all her tears into her 0*1 bosom, and put on a mask for him? Is mar riage to be a keeping up of appearances Cau love be retained only by a masquerade Is a huBbaud something that must be daintily fed, aud gingerly managed, from whom the thorns must be hidden, and for whom the roses must blow, and if they won.t blow, wax 1 flowers must be manufactured? Nonsense! At the basis of true marriage is truth. It is life, aud not dilletanteism that glows ou Us- i household hearth. II a man has manhood.be i wants his wife asshels. Her whims,sorrows, vexations aud all. He ^ocs not want to be I wheedled by a paper machine image, gotten up for the occasion. If things have gone ou smoothly, and she meets him with a smile, he strikes an attitude, aud is as the English say, “jolly.” But if Johnny is croupy, aud U:e' baby is cross, and Bridget has given notice leaving next day, he is not dolt enough to ex pect her to forget all this, or rascal enough to wish her to gloss it over and deceive him by pretending to be happy when she is noi. There are many times when it will be better for him and better for her, that he should oiieu I his arms and let her have *’a good cry” these, and even if he is alittle sentimental and baby ish,it wont hurt anything permanently. Th.s will soothe aud calm her irritated nerves, and they will talk it over, and so love will bridge the chasm, and tunnel the mountains, ami chain the lions,—for the heart that lovelb is not only willing butable. And the wifely ton uerne* will be made so strong aud grateful 1 that when the husband comes home next da- in his luro, irritated, depressed and savag as oniy “real good” husbands can be, she will snap her fingers at his moodiness and surii- t ness, and knead him, and mould him, and make him over so deftly, that he wont know he has been touched till he finds himself sit ting clothed and In his right mind.—Gail Hamilton in the Conyrryafioualiet. proposals P;'* merino tb» Cus too1 ilouse at Portland, Maine.

Every intelligent and thinking person must know that remedies handed out from general u?e should have their efficacy established by will-tested expe rience in the hands of a regularly educated physi cian, whose preparatory study fits him lor all tht duties he must fulfill; yet the country is flooded witt woor nostrums and cure-alls, purporting to be ths best in the world, which are not only useless, but al ways injurious The unfortunate should be rAUTio ulau in selecting his physician, as it is a lamentable yet incontrevertablc flict that many syphilitic ap* tients are made miserable with ruined constitutions by maltreatment from inexperienced physicians In general practice; for it is a point generally conceded by the best syphilographcrs, that the study and man agement of these complaints should engross the whole time of those who would be competent and •uccessfel in their treatment and cure. The inex perienced general praotitioner, ho ing neither op portunity nor time to make himse. acquainted with their pathology, commonly purrue- one system of treatment, in meet oases making an indiscriminate use of that antiquated and dangerous weapon, Mer cury. HAVE CONFIDENCE. All who have committed an exceex of any kind, whether it be the solitary vice of youth, or the sting ing rebuke of misplaced vonfidei.ee in matorer years, SEEK FOR AN ANTIDOT IN SEASON. The Pains and Aches, and Lassitude and Nervoat Prostration that may follow impure Coition, are the Barometer to the whole system. Do not wait for the consummation that is sure to fol low, do not wait for Unsightly Ulcers, for Dim bled Limbs, for Loss of Beauty and Complexion. HOW MANY THOUSANDS CAN TESTIFY TO THIS BY UNHAPPY EXPERIENCE. Young Men troubled with emissions in sleep, complaint generally the result of a bad habit in youth, treated scientifically' and a perfect cure war ranted or no charge made. Hardly a day passes bnt we are consulted by one or more young men with the above disease, some of whom are as weak and emaciated as though they had the consumption, and by their friends supposed to have it. All such c tees y fold to the proper and only correct course of treatment, and in a abort time are made to rejoice in perfect health.
