I ran to the hospital ; awoun- tied man was just brought: in ; his state \vas frightful; his intestines were torn out of his bleeding flesh; but already one of my colleagues had taken his place by his bed. The poor man was fully conscious; the Priest received his confession, gave him the last Sacraments and in a quarter of an hour, he rendered

A new Wan Ixsracuaxr.—-Tho .lforn- ing Post has received a letter from Paris by baloon. One of its unnonmtcmcnts ought to cause the Germans some anxiety :—-“ The defence from within is already taking a desperate character. The generals, as is the wont of generals have long insisted upon making war only according to tradition. They hold that, while it is perfectly fair and most honorable forcibly to introduce steel and lead into the vital parts of their enemies, or to blow them a with gun- powder, it is barbarous and) disgraceful to use to the same end any means in- volving a ’further advance of science. Their scru les. hc wevor, have now been vanquisbc . I have to-day seen aquitc unmartiul, frock-coated, keen-eyed little chemist, who has within his knowledge more effectual and terrible methods of warfare than all the cocked hats' in Europe over envcrcd. llo assures me that, with a recently~discovercd prepar- ation—fullninatc of picrato of potass in its simple form -hc can blow the I’rus~ sian army oil‘ the face of the earth. He has another preparation. which at once nsphyxiates and burns any living crca- ture upon which it is projected ; and, in addition to that, he declares that he possesses the means of decomposing water itself, and turning it into consum- ing flame. 'l‘his gentleman is in the employ of the Government, and has al- ready prepared a most diabolical rc- ccption for tho l’russians. They have indeed, already experienced the awful cflects of his skill in the explosion of two torpedoes, which are said to have killed 700 men, and the exposed points of the defence are thickly sown with like engines of'dcstruction.”

Zouaves: he ascends at a running pace the steps of the hospital. “ What is it my _iricnd I” “ It is nothing,” he ans- wered, “I only want a hand.”

A'r Blossom—After describing the lighting at Monzon, the Abbe continues: —“ It was necessary to see to the safety of the wounded. We closed the gates, taking care to throw all weapons outside: then, with our arms crossed. we awaited the event on the stairs. Three times our infantry, led on by the intrepid Mar- shal. rushed forward ;tl1rec times we saw them return in disorder. One had his hand run through. he ran to me. " Ilan- viage my hand quickly that! may return to the fire. 1 want to go todio." It ~vas six o’clock in the evening; the fight Was still more severe in the suburb. Many of the superior officers found a glorious death in that village strut-1‘: the straw was red with blood. Nigh came, and the silence of death succcoded to the tumult ofthc battle. The French retreated on Sedan. . . All the night was assed by us in visiting our poor wean ed: the hospital was over- flowing; the church. transformed into an ambulance. held 250 sick ; the school- house was full. If the Conflagration from burning houses should spread ! There were yet two hours of mental tnguish. At last the fire dcadcued, the complaints of the wounded were lulled to sleep—even that is overcome by fatigue. and every one lay down on the ground to snatch a moment’s rest.

Tn: Pantsuits—The next day, and the day after, in the environs of Sedan. were being played out the destinies of ’Frauce. and we knew nothing of what

. was happening. Occupied, either with

locating the woods and the fields to find any wounded who had been forgot- ten. or with visiting all the houses of the town, we gave but an indiii'ercnt gaze to a apectale new to us—I’russian uni- forms. There, however. we could see them at work. full of delicate respect and care for the wounded. rude and

STATISTICS OI“ DISEASE.

NATURE'S ENEMIES AND HER ALLIEB.

The statistics of what are called “ na‘.~ ural deaths ” would astonisb the World. if we could only ascertain and compile them. Nature is very much slandeer. She is not the distinctive agent she is represented to be. She fights disease with Amazonian energy. and would conquer in millions of instances where she succumbs, were it not for the falul aid of deleterious medicines. When flolloway’s remedies are called in as her allies. she generally achieves a victory. These hygcian preparations seem to re- inf'orce the vital energies. and infuse a sanitary principle into the blood against which no disorder can make head. Their success in our distant colonies, and especially Canada, has been mar- vellous. 'I‘hcir celebrated inventor, with the World for his arena, could not name any region where the conflict of his remedies with the hydro of disease has been marked by more decided triumphs than in the British provinces of America. We are aware that they have done won- ders everywhere, but for the diseases prevalent in Canada, they seem to be providentially adapted. 1' or the distres- sing maladies so common on thelow— lying shores of the Canadian lakes and large rivers, they are, in cases, and under all contingencies, commanding remedies.

Bouchette, in his large work on British America, rind Ferguson in his " Practical Notes.” allude to the insslubrity of'many of the wet and swampy districts on the margins of the water courses, and along the shores of Lakes Erie, Ontario, and flown. 'I‘hese writers recommended that " great care. be given to the regu- larity of the digestive organs b the settlers on marshy soil." IIad I’lollo. way's Pills been before the world when Ferguson wrote, he would probably have recommended them to every inhabitant of the low lands of Canada. As a means of keeping the digestive and excretive system in a perfect order they have no equal, (so we or assured by persons w no use them as family medicine) in the whole range of remedial preparations. In bronchitis, neuralgia, asthma, and sore throat, which are prevailing com- plaints in moist locations throughout Canada, the Ointment is the only article used by the inhabitants as an external application.

It it not our rovinco to prescribe for our readers; mt while reviewing the wonderful progress which Ilollowsy’s Pills and Ointment have made in public confidence since their introduction into Canada. we must necessarily arrive at one of two conclusions; either that the remedies are of unequalled ellcac , or that Canadians are destitute of 0rd nary equally.
