of imagination’s realm reconnoitred by the
‘mind’s eye,’ and as bearing upon Roman
history thereis no incident, it seems to the
writer, better calculated to cause a thrill of
admiration and sympathy in every magnani-
mous breast than the picture of the grands |
est character that Rome ever produced, dili-
gently engaged in the manual (but nol de-
grading) occupation of guiding tbe plow.
The fact that this purest, least ambitious,
and most really influentiai citizen that Rome |
ever boasted, should have, almost exclusive-
ly, devoted his time, his talents, and his
wonderful energies (whenever the Common-
wealth could dispense with the latter) to
purely agricullural pursuiis, simply demons
strates the moral grandeur of the man’s na-
implying, as it does, that in comparison
with all other merely human pursuits Cincins
nnatusfdeemed the ‘tilling ofthe soil’ to be at
once the most natural,the most innocent, and
therefore the most conducive to man’s happis
ness of all others. In his utter freedom, in- |
deed, from ambition, and his lofty indiffer-
ence to that species of renown which
“Plays round the head, but comes not to |
the heart,”
he proved himself + the noblest Roman’ of
them all, and emphatically that immaculate
character, in heathen times, who carried out,
in his daily walk and behaviour, the pre-
| cepts and practice of Christianity, without
being aware that its great Founder was on
his way to promulgate his doctrines to a be-
| nighted world.

}
|

We deduce this general
from his devotedness
to agricultural pursuits, and from the re-
| markable preference he evinced in relation
thereto, as contrasted with his apparent
lukewarmness in the matter of state affairs,
that Cincinnatus, more than any other man
of his time, understood in what true happi-
ness consisted; and though more capable
| than any of his contemporaries of conduct—
| ing such affairs wisely and well, (for was he
| not Rome’s ‘ pilot in extremity ?’) and when
|. the waves ran high’ was sure to be at his
| post ; yet, the disagreeable task being ac-
; complished, he would hasten back to his
plow, unmoved by the plaudits of his couns

Nationa, Desrs.—Nearly every nation in
the world is either a borrower or lender, and
the startling declaration is made by a writer
in the London Daily Telegraph that the
world ‘“‘ regarded by the mass, is living be-
yond its means.’ During the 10 years end-
ing with 1872, while England reduced her
debt $175,000,000, Holland about $30,000,000,
and the United States $400,000,000, in five
years there was an increase, in some cases
exceedingly large, in the debts of France,

llaly, Spain, Russia, Turkey, Austro—Hun- |

gary, Egypt, Brazil, Portugal and Peru, to
say nothing of other nations which are com-
paratively small debtors. France has gone
deepest, increasing her liabitities by about
$2,500,000,000 in the decade. The Editor of
‘Fenn on the Funds,’ a well known book of
reference in England, estimates the toual in-
crease in the aggregate of national debts for
the years from 1862 to 1872, at nearly $10,-
000,000,000, while an additional sum of $5,-
606,000,000 is estimaied to have been raised
for joint stock companies. The figures nec-
essary to express the total volume of the
world’s indebtedness, public and private,
would represent a sum almost incomprehen-
sible.— Republic Magazine.

CERTIFICATE OF CURE.

Mrs. Elisa Rhynard, of Annapolis County,
in the Province of Nova Scotia, maketh oath
and saith that a year ago last September her
husband boughta bottle of Dr. Caleb Gates’
Eye Relief, forthe purpose of applying it for
the cure of sore eyes ; and seeing on the label
of the bottle that it was recommended for the
cure of piles also, with which she had been
for a long time most painfully afflicted, and
had applied to different doctors in her own
neighbourhood, and tried various other res
medics, but found no permanent relief, tried
it for the piles also, andina very short time
was cured of both complaints by the use of
one small bottle. She had also been used
to very frequent turns of fainting, some-~
times as often as three times a day, and
| having thistime moved into the more ims

mediate neighbourhood of Dr, Gates, she
commenced taking his Life of Man Bitters
| and Syrup about the first of May last, and
| is most thankful and happy to say, that
| through a kind Providence and the skill of
Dr. Gates, she has not had one of her
former fainting turns since the month of June
Jast past, and she has frequently taken the
| Bitters and Syrups for colds, &c., and has in-
| variably found unfailing relief in the use of
the above medicines.

Dr. J. Walker’s California Vin-
egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable
preparation, made chiefly from the na-
tive herbs found on the lower ranges of
the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor-
nia, the medicinal properties of which
are extracted therefrom without the use
of Alcohol. The question is almost
daily asked, “‘ What is the cause of the
unparalleled suczess of VINEGAR Brt-
TERS?” Our answer is, that they remove
the cause of disease, and the patient re-
covers his health. They are the great
blood purifier and a life-giving principle,
a perfect Renovator and Invigorator
of the system. Never before in the
history of the world has a medicine been
compounded possessing the remarkable
qualities of Viygear Birrers in healing the
sick of every disease manis heir to. They
are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic,
relieving Congestion or Inflammation of
the Liver and Visceral Orgaus, in Bilious
Diseases.

The properties of Dr. WALKEr’s
Verunantbevions are Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic,
Sedative, Counter-Irritant, Sudorific, Altera-
tive. and Anti-Bilious.

Grateful Thousands proclaim Viy-
EGAR BITTERS the most wonderful In-
vigorant that ever sustained the sinking
system. 2

No Person can take these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones are not de-
stroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and vital organs wasted beyond
repair.

Bilious, Remittent and Inter-
mittent Fevers, which are so preva-
lent in the valleys of our great rivers
throughout the United States, especially
those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri,
Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan-
sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande,
Pear], Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro-
anoke, James, and many others, with
their vast tribytaries, throughout our
entire country during the Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so during sea-
sons of unusual heat and dryness, are
invariably accompanied by extensive de-
rangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow-
erful influence upon these various or-
gans, is essentially necessary. There
is no cathartic for the purpose equal to
Dr. J. WALKER’S VINEGAR BITITERs,
as they will speedily remove the dark-
colored viscid raatter with which the
bowels are loaded, at the same timo
stimulating the secretions of the liver,
and generally restoring the healthy
functions of the digestive organs.
