An Improved Patent Fishway.

The Amherst Gazette thus deseribes a new Sshway, the invention of W. dH. Rogers, Esq., Inspector of Fisherics for Nova Scotia :—

Mr. Rogers’ fishway starts at the bed of the river, right under the dam, and in » dam ten feet high extends up the pond $0 feet, with a slope or rise of one foot in ten, or until the bottom comes within two or two anda halfof the surface, when. the pond is full. This slope or floor is five feet wide, then the sides extend above the highest freshet, se that no water can got into it except at the upper end, whien is 14 inches wide by three feet high. When the water falls too low in the pond toadmit ofits enterance atthe upper end, he has openings atdifferent points along the side (closed with gates when the pond is full) which are opened by the local Warden wuen necessary to admit the fish. In this way he has provided| for any contingency that may arise from} the fluctuation of the water, and the fish can ascend as readily in the drought of summer as in spring or fall.

The peculiar form of the brakes or bucke!s on the inside causes the water to pass down ina clear,unbroken stream at the raie of not over one and a half to two miles per hour while they supply a full pool of water at about every six feet, where two or three barrels of fish may rest or play as they please. But the most important part of the iavon- tion, as it appears to us, is that about all the fish ascending the river will na- turally swim right into the entrance of the fisiway, as tne dam itself furnished a guide to lead them into it, and, hav» ing entered, there is no trouble in their swimming up leisurely and easily. Two of these new ladders have been put in the dams at Milton, Queen’s county, during the past summer.

Gems of Thought.

To the imag:ination, immensity is but & step.

Address makes opportunities, the want of it gives them.

Ceremony is necessary as the out- work and defeace of manners.

It is sound policy to, suffer all ex- tremities rather than todo a base action.

Only he who has sothing to hone from : woman is sincere in ber praise.

He that is not aware of his ignoranee, will only be misled by his knowledge.

Extremo self-love will set a man’s house on fire, though it were but to roasi their eggs.

Love is more pleasing than matri- mony, just as romance is more enter- taining than history.

The vanity of human life is like a river constani'y passing away, and yet constintly coming on. a .

Kloguence is the power to translate a truth into language perfect intelligible to the person whom you speak.

There are some persons on whom their faults sit wel!, and others who are made ungraceful by their good qualities.

The U. S. Commissioner of Agriculture has finished his report, and it is understood that ho estimates the increase in the value of the crops this year over last at $599,090. - 000. The total cern crop is about 1,700,- 000,000 bushels, against 1,450,006,000 for last year. The wheat yield this year, while larger in bushels than last year, receives its increased valuation principally because of higher prices.

Its wonderful success in cnring Consumptien, severe Coughs, Pneumonia, Asthma, and al! other diseases of the throat and lungs, was first made known by distributing every year, for three years, over 400,000 bottles to the afflicted, free of charge, by Druggists.

only destroyed. ‘‘ Ele who God's temple destreys, shall be himself destroyed.’ Life

is a brittle thread ; health, of all blessings,

the eweetest and best. In an hygienic sense, and with becoming reverence, We ask, ‘¢ What shall we eat ? what shall we drink? and how shall we dress ?” : Kating, my friond, is essential to life ; but we don’t live to cat, else life’s a great failure. We eat- to live. Gluttony is sin- ful. Gluttony makes the’ body an easy prey to baneful disease and numberless ills. Digestion is gone and life is nigh run, and we vainly repair to doctors and pills. The road to diseaso is a very sitaple one. Improper eating induces it. Hating at all hours or eating in haste. The stomach complains of the unmasticated load. Digestion is crazy and the mind’s in a fog. The quantity is impertant. Improper eating not only induccs disease. It’s ex- pensive as well. The road to the stomach often leads to the jail. Let conscience, not taste, the arbiter be. Hat as much and ao more than is good for thee. Health often follows in the wake ef economy. Overeating is extremely dangerous. A physician great in skill, whose name isa housshold word, has said, with terseness and pith, “‘Far more eat than drink them- selves to death.” Eat slowly—more in the manner than in the quality. This may be hard to do; for “‘habit is second nature.” Remember the perfect man controls himself. The perfect man is slow to speak, slow to wrath and slow to eat. Now, let your fare, plain, simple and wholesome,be: On that which strengtheneth man’s heart, lay the greater stress. With wholesome bread—-the staff of life—and health-giving fruit you may safely bid adieu to all the rest If, as some sages say, “‘He who off flesh partakes, partakes of the nature of brutes; then the greatest flush eaters must be eur egislators in the limited field of politics. Soberly, we say flesh stupifies ; if not, brute nature imparts. It induces dullness, clogs the brain. Prove it we can. ‘ben flesh is hurtful, if that saying’s true,—‘‘The mind’s the standard of the man.” And as for drink—drink waiter, and water only. Nature’s sweet beverage. He who ‘‘drink’s another’s health, drinks poison ’gainst God and himself— eommits a great sin,” is the sad, plaintive cry of vir- tue and hygiene. Let your clothing be plain and simple. Do not dress like flirts and fools—’gainst

conscience, ‘monitions, ‘gainst reason, means and sense; for fashion’s empty

fame. But eat your food, and drink what’s good, and cri your clothes accord- ing tothe sound dictates of religion and hygiene. Ye M. D’s, who from roots and leaves extract panaceas for all human ills, away with medicines and teach hygiene rather than the magical power of prescriptions and pills. Ye editors, who mould public opinion with your facile pen,—give us less on poli- tics, and gives us a column in whics we can talk on hygiene. 5.

ete., Souris

T. J. B. Harprxe, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:—

Dear Sin—It is now two years since your ‘“‘Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intre- duced tome. Ihave waited this ong to see if the eure would remain permanent before de- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be “‘too good to cd true.”

I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel ike smothering and be compelled to sit up in the bed. My health and spirits were seriously afiected. When your agent came te Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured Mthree bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite clear of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head,

A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see -proper Yours truly,

W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
