A Palm Blister as a Remedy rog Disease. The Scientific American is responsible for the fol lowing prescription, which is worth knowing: We proclaim another mo Jo of treating dis ease a treatment that casts homeopathy, hydro pathy, steam doctoring, the movement cunwid the science of therapeutics itself entirely into the shade. It is well known that all these systems, though they make a loud noise in the world, re ally accomplish very little ; nearly all patients who recover under tho treatment -of physicians of any suhool, would have recovered without the aid of the physicians, and it is very seldom indeed, that fatal diseases are diverted from their course by putting drugs into the stomach. But our system is effectual ; it will cure many of the worst diseases to which mankind arc subject, and it will prevent them all. It is as simple as it is powerful ; it is nothing moro than raising a blis ter in tho palm of the hand. The blister must not be raised by cantharides or other poisonous irritants, it must be produced by friction, accom panied by alternate contraction and extension of the muscles. U' the operation acts ns a sudorific, inducing a severe perspiration between the clav iclos and above the eyebrows, it is all the more efficacious. Almost any solid substanco may be employed for administering the friction, though it has been discovered that the best substance for the purpose is tho handle of somo tool, such as a hammer, saw, or piano ; tho very best being the handle of a plow or hoe. This treatment produces the good cllocts of all the articles in the whole materia inediea, and with more power and certainty than they. For instance, it is a more powerful opiate than opium, and, while the sleep induced by narcotics is suc ceeded by nausea and debility, that resulting from this treatment is wholly refreshing and in vigorating, and is followed by a peculiarly health ful and buoyant exhilaration. As a tonic it is more beneficial than bark or iron, not only strengthening the muscles, but ac tually enlarging their volume. To give an ap petite, it is better than any dinner pill. If the epicure who sits down to his tablo with indill'er ence, and forces a few mouthfuls of his dainty viands into his stomach, where they give him great distress, will adopt this treatment, ho will como to tho tabic with a keen desire that will give a relish to the plainest food ; and digestion wait3 upon an appetite thus produced. It is a better remedy for incipient consump tion.tlnm cod liver oil, and is a sovereign cure for dyspepsia. It will not only removo bodily ills, but is the best of all medicines for a mind diseased. If a man who is suffering from hypo chondriasis, who. feels that the burdens of life are greater than ho can bear, ond who sees the clouds of despair settling over his future, will take hold of a shovel haudlo and raise a blister in the pulm of his hand, he will be surprised to sco the troubles that have oppressed him are brushed away, and tho future before him is brightened. New beauties will como upon the face of nature, and new joys and hopes will Rnrins ud in his heart. This is tho true elixir of life. While othor modes of treatment are expen sWe, this not only costs absolutely nothing, but it is a source of revenuo to tho patient. It re moves not only sickness and despondency, but poverty also. It is a remedy for all the ills tiit flesh is heir to. Though this system is tho best of any for the cure of complaints, its great superiority is as a prophylactic If properly administered to a healthy subject, it will prevent all disease. Tho next neighbor to the writer of this died at I) I, of old ngc. A few days before his death, in con versation with him, wo asked him if he had ever consulted physician. I lo replied that ho nev er had. " Were you ever sick 1" " No." " Not a day 1 " No." " Not nn hour ? " " No." " You were never sick in your life ? " No." This man know nothing of physiology ; he had never practiced any system of dieting ; but every day, Sundays and all, for more than eighty years, and generally, excepting Sundays, through tho whole day from before sunrise till after sun set, he had applied friction to tho palms of his bands. vived ? Our duty as a nation of kinsmen, of friends, and of neighbors is very plain. Our sympathies and prayers ought to bo for those and those alone w ho stand on the defensive in this lamentable quarrel, for theirs is the cause of law, order and right. We, too, are likely to be heavy sufTorers by reason of the conflict ; but as Lord do Grey has recently well said, whe'n ad dressing a public assembly in Yorkshire, " No consideration of temporary self-interest ought to induce us to think of interposing between the combatants, on any plea or upon any pretence whatever. London A ews. THE FLOOD IN CAL1FOUM.1. VlKWSOK TI1K AmEKICAN WAR. TllO whole history of great States, whether monarchical or republican, in all nges and in all climes, has been ono of alternate eugraftings and splintering from the central stock. Territorial expansion and contraction have been by turns the destiny of nearly every European State of the first order, since the days of Charlemane. It has been pre-eminently so of France, whose confines have seldom remained for half a century un changed ; yet when has the bitterest enemy of that great country ventured to talk of herpoliti eul existence as a thing that has passed away? Kvery true statesman and historian understands that the vitality of a great State consists not In tho casual extent of its areage, or the fluctuating number of its people, but in the moral vigor which loyalty to its institutions, the homogenity of feeliiig, habit and purpose, give, and which no accidents of flood or iicld can take awav. 'Were tho Southern States parted finally and forever from the 1'iiion, the I nion would still bo the greatest free country with tho exception of our own, that the world has ever seen. It would still possess elements within itself of opulence and power vaster by far than any European Slate can boast; it would still be invincible by foreign arms and unshackled in tho pursuit of industry, knowledge and improvement by do. inestio bods, w hetlier of creed or caste ; it would still possess the priceless treasure of a matured literature and jurisprudence, and while it main tained all tho freshness and energy of national youtht would still bo a voluntary combination of self ruling States it would still be the home of the free. We cordially sympathie in the bold and eloquent language of Vice C'haneeiior Pago Wood upon this subject; and w e seriously commend his wise and mighty words of political reproof to the shallow-pated orators and writers who think it fine to sneer at the mischance and losses of a free community, involved against their will in a sanguinary war. No purity of motives or political wisdom can effectually insure nation against wanton and willful disailcctioti. How many revolts havo EnglUh rulers been obliged to resist I How many attempts at vhism and secession has not rritih power ur- From the Sacramento Union, of Dec. 11th, we take the following extracts : " Sacramento was yesterday subjected to suffering and damage from, tho deepest and most destructive flood of those: to which she has been exposed. It came, too, 'with the rapidity of a hurricane. Jn a few hours after the water crossed tho levee, tho whole city was under water. " The high tide of tho American appears to have been precipitated into the valley in ono great wave, as it produced by tho sudden burst ing of tho walls of an immense reservoii1. Scarce ly a bridge on its banks is lefl standing. " The real loss to the City can never be known, for a great portion is in that kind of property which adds to family comforts, but which can never bo estimated. Upon the industrious poor, tho men who have labored for years to purchase and adorn homesteads for their families, tho loss is crushing. The majority of this class of citizens were settled in tho southern portion of the City where the water was deepest, and many have lost not only their furniture, clothes, provisions, flower gardens, etc., but their houses have been floated away and deposited on other lota or carri ed by the flood towards Sutterville, if not below thaUown. Their all is gone. Houses were swept through tho crevices in tho U street levcj some of them two stories and so powerful was tho cunent that when two met below tho levee the commotion was1 so great that they would scatter and drop into the boiling flood as if built of paper. 1 "All accounts from the interior unite in repre senting the freshet as the most fearful which has visited the State since its occupation by Amer icans. The floods have been higher and more destructive on tho Yuba and American rivers and their branches than ever before experienced. Tho water has in many localities reached eleva tions confidently supposed to be far above danger from high water, destroyed immense amounts o" property, and in somo instances life has been sacrificed when persons were so sure they were beyond danger as to remain until too lato to escape. Tho loss of stock in tho upper valley of tho Sacramento, and on the Feather, Yuba and American rivers, have been fearfully great. Millions of feet of lumber and hundreds of thous ands of cords of wood, and in many instances houses and barns have been swept away by. the resistless current. " At Auburn tho North Fork rose fifty-five feet above row water. After the volume of wa ter rushed through the canyon ot Folsom, it ap pears to navcoiiea over ttio Country on each -mem resistless wavcs( wnicn prostrated every, thing before them. The devastation of the water before it reached the City was terrible." At Marysvillc, tho Appeal says, the Hood was greater and more destructive than ever known before sinco tho placo was settled by white people. Tho City was mostly under water. The foundations of several largo briek buildings, among them the Merchant's Hotel, gave way and the walls were left in ruins. Houses, furniture, and stock of every description passed down the Yuba ; while somo houses were washed away from tho lower part of town. Tho Yuba and Feather rivers wero both very hieh and over flowed nearly all tho ranches along them, drown ing immenso numbers of stock, and doing great damage generally. Quite a number of persons wero drowned on the mining bars along tho Yu ba on one bar eighteen Chinamen. In other parts of California tho flood was equally disastrous. Napa valley was overflowed and a portion of tho town of Napa destroyed. Tho Cosuinncs river rose fourteen feet in twelve hours, overflowing all tho lowlands 'along it for several miles wide. Santa Rosa creek overflowed the town of Santa Kosa; was about eighteen inches deep in the streets. Rabbit creek and Slate creek, in Sierra county, were very high ; destroyed bridges- and flumes generally. The ravine at Auburn, Placer county, was high enough to float the largest class steamboats, and swept away a part of Auburn. Throughout the Slate, tho damages to roads, flumes, ditches and tho milling interests general ly, were great. Tiikuk is a growing impression that Congress will authorize negro emancipation, as a war meas ure, and a potent means of ending this rebellion, unless the cotton States declare their submission before many weeks havo passed. Certainly the , sentiment of tho country is rapidly rising to that I position. Do not suppose that tho '-wish is ( father to the thought." I am reciting fiiets that ,aro vividly drawn upon the moving panorama of ! political events. Significant of the sentiment in ' question were some speeches a day or two since, at the reception' of the 2.1J regiment of Massa Ichusetls Volenteers. Gen. Uurnside, of Kho.le I Island and of Hull Run lame, having been receiv ed with great applause, thanked the New York ' ers for the kind reception, and hoped the occa sion would serve to strengthen the kindness I existing between them. A report of his speech say s: j I lo had learned to respect tho Massachusetts soldiers, because he was brought up in another I section of tho country, audit requires an inti mate association with them, as a people, to know tho greatness of that grand old Slate. This rcg- imeiit enters the contest at a momentous period. i When this contest first began we hoped it would I bo a short struggle. W) had begun to imagine , that this Government was so strong th.it it could not bo assailed ir many of its vital parts. Wc have had it thrown in our face that the very .cause of tiiis rebellion is a strength to the ene my. But tho time has como when it tho cause of this difficulty is a real strength to the enemy, every good general in tho field will strive to turn that power to his own account. No man will carry men into the field, sacrifice their lives, and ullow u force to remain opposed to him either latent or positive. It wculd be a bad generalship. We are sending our sons to the field pouring out their blood like water and are we to leave this slave force to remain with out endeavoring to turn it to our own purposes? Just now it is a momentous period when we have made e lodgment right in the heart of the enemy's country. There the power which the rebels boast exists to its maximum extent, if it is a power. Now, let us see whether that pow er is turned to their account or ours. No man would be more gratified than himself, to see the Government established on a peace basis, as it was twelve months ago, and if any power stands in the way let us put it out of the way. He valued human life:, and to the fullest possible extent it shall be spared with the men under his command ; but iho Government must be sus tained at all hazards. Washington Correspond- General Laxe, of Kanses, is not a doctor of laws, but if he had been, ho could not havo defined with more exactness than he did, in a late stump npceeli at Leavenworth, what tho duty is of military officers under existing laws, executive instructions, and the resolutions of Congress : " We march to crush out treason and let slavery take care of itself. " The nation has not yet determined upon a general emancipation as a means of quelling the rebellion, but it has determined that the army shall not turn slave, catcher for the benefit of traitors. If the slaves of such escape into our lines, they are not to be given up, and if the progress of our armies abol ishes il.iveiy, that is a consequence which trait ors have brought down on their own heads. Mas. Partington camo up to town to select a guardian for her precious Ike, and remarked as follows: "How tho world has turned about to bo sure! 'lis nothing but change, change! Only yes terday, ns it were, I was in the country, smelling the odious flowers; to-day 1 am in the big city, my oil factories breathing the impure execrations of coal smoke that are so dilatory to health. Instead of the singing of the birds, the horn bier busses almost deprive me of my consci entiousness. Dear me, well I hope I will be restrained through it all ! They say that the morbid turpentine of this city is frightful; but it isn't any use to anticipate trouble beforehand, he may escape all harmonious influences that woiqd have a tenderness to hurt him; and us the minister of our parish said, with judicial train ing he may become a useless membrane of society ; though the training is bad generally, and is apt to make the young run to feathers, like croppled crowned hens. But ho has genius look at hiinl it comes natural to him, like the measles, and every day it is enveloping itself more and more. . nr tile marriage of Count d' Artois, tho city of Paris agreed to furnish marriage portions. A sweet littlo girl of sixteen, named Lise Morin, having presented herself to inscribe name on the list, was ashed who was her lover. " Oh, " said she, with great simplicity, "I h ivo no lover; 1 thought the city furnished everything." - A hill passed the Seuato of the Connecticut Legislature, lately, removing the restriction to the number of men fram Connecticut, fixed by tho militia law at 10,000; providing for families ot three months volunteers, the wife $( per mouth, and one or two children $2 per month each, to bo continued while tho volunteers are prisoners ; and appropriating $2,000,000 for war purposes. Every desire bears its death in its very grat ification. Curiosity languishes under repeated stimulants, and novelties cease to excite surprise until at length wo cannot even wonder at a mir Fame is often a wayward and careless mother to poets while they livt ; but when they die, she comes and presses her warm lips to their voice less dead ones, and calls them her voiceless dead children, and wreathes their names on her mon ument with marble flowers, the only ones that grow in her heart. i One-half of mankind pass their lives in think ing how they shall get a dinner, and the other in thinking what dinner they shall get ; and the first aro much less injured by occasional fasts than the latter aro by constant feasts. When the Roman poet .was told by a phleg matic friend to mind his own business, and not meddle w ith other men's all'urs, he made the fol lowing immortal reply : " I am a man, and w hat ever relates to my fellow man, also touches mo."
