I loved her goodness gracious ! hare you been In jest that fix yourself; maybe you smile, To think what tarnal nonsense lore brings in, When heaven and airth seem kissin all the while. To look at her, and hear her, was enough To set my blood a dancin miniture jigs; It minded me somehow of maple sap and " sugarin off," Or settin down in Eden eatin figs. I lored her that's enough to say I guess, on that particular pint, But I was steamboated, the worst old way, "And my nose was knocked," (by upwards of a Considerable) "out of jint." O Oh Lordy ! How my bosom palps I'm clean kerflummixed since she learned to smile rd like to sit on Hood, or Alps, On him. And cuss some cusses on his head awhile. Folks talk, and talk ; and " wonder en Q they'll wed," While groans of rage bust from my manly form. I'd rather see the muggins ber-ri-ed And wish him long repoQ in cliipjtte warm. But words are weak, somehow they muchly 0 fail, To do the subjectjustce. I am out of cheer, Mournin for love, for woman's lore, as frail And prone to flit, as summer gossamere. Farewell to Web-foot-f must cut my stick ; I'll try if absence will restore my heart ; God help all fools who chance to be lore-sick, And cure or T(t$ 'em nevermore to part. Harry Hopeless. " Shetland Stockings and Those who Knit tjieii. Theie is perhaps no community that givesOsuch iuv dications of industry among the fe male population as Shetland. The knitting-needles and the worsted are continually in their hands, and ssem to form part and parcel of the woman herself. It you take a walk toward Tingwall, you will meet or pass doz ens of)women going for or returning with peats from the hill, all busy knitting one a stocking, another a stout shawl or cravat. The finer articles scarfs, vails.and lace shawls, which are often exquisitely fine can not be worked in this off-hand way, and are reserved for leisure hours at home. The "keyshie'' a straw bas ket, like a large inverted beehive may be full oj empty, but you never ail to find the busy fingers. This carrying of peats is an almost daily task, and you often see a woman with strongly-marked features and large frame, whoy from constant exposure to sunshine and shower, and rendered gaunt and wiry by hard work, recalls Sir Walter ScotVs description of "Norna of Fitful Head." The poor classes generally wear no shoes, but 4srivlins," a kind of sandal made of untanned cowhide, or sometimes sealskin, with the hair outside, and lashed to tbe foot with tongs. AU the wool of iheCbure Shetland sheep is fine, but the finest grows under the neck, and $ never shorn off, but "rooed" that is, gently pulled. It is sad that an ounce of wool can be spua into upwards of 1,000 yards of three-ply thread. Stockings can be knitted of such fineness as to be eas ily drawn through a finger-ring. The annual proceeds of the industry are said to be not less than JC 10,000. It is quite common for a Servant, when making an engagement, to stip ulate that she shall "have her hands to herself," meaning that all she can make by knitting is to go inlcPher own pocket. The industry of the women is to be accounted for by the fachat by their knitting they sup ply themselves with dress, and es pecially with tea, of which they are interaperatejy found. It is a perfect ly ascertained fact,Qhat the value of tea annually consumed in Shetland far exceeds, the whole (-land rental about ,30,000. Very large quantU ties of eggs are sent south, bringing J m, it is said, some thousands of pounds annually, a great portion of which finds its way into the teapot. Cork. Trie uses of cork are numer ous. There is necessarily waste in cutting wine corks, which was for', merly of no value ; nowrthis waste, says the Ladies' Treasury, ground very small and mixed with India rubber, forms " Kamptullicon." Ground to powder, it is used in the process of vulcanizing IndijP rubber, which can then be molded into the most delicate form. Mattrasses fill ed with fine cork cuttings will resist damp, and emigrants should take care that such form a part of their outfit. Pillows, or belts, stuffed With cork shavings, or cork jackets, should also bo included in their list of necessaries all these are usefnl as helps in gaining a near shore in case of shipwreck. Slabs of thick cork are much used in England for stand" ing uponiu shower-baths. The rough cork of the first year's gathering, which has been hitherto useless, is now converted into rustic work for gardens The fine Spanish black used by artists is prepared from burn ing corkbavingscin close vessels. The Cattle Plague. The rav ages of the cattle plague are getting "small by degrees nd beautifully less." We observe, it is staled, that since the beginning of the disease fifty one out of every thousand of the stock of cattle in Great Britain . have been attacked. ' CARROTs.It 13 said that twenty five tons of carrots can be raised on one acre of land, and that this amouet is equal to eight tons of good hay. TRAVEL AND TBAKSP OR TA TION.

Dr. Bourne: Last Winter I was nearly dead, by an attack of inflammatory rheuma tism. I suffered the most excruciating pains for about five weeks, without anv hope of relief, when a friend hearing of my llness, called to see me, and assured me tlia if I would stop "drugging and dosing" and go to you, that you would have me walking about the streefs i n threedays. Sure enough, although I was utterly helpless, and con veved to your house in 'a carriage, and car ried into it by three stout men, aud by them lifted into the bath, yet, on coming out of it, I largely assisted myself, doing much to wards dressing, aud, without assistance, walked from the bath to the carriage. On the fourth duv I discharged my carriage and walked, with a friend's aid, the entire dis tance to your house (nearly a mile) and home again, and so on until cured. I felt myself a well Than. And now I am happy to do you this little service, of publicly cer tifying to the simple truth, leaving it to do its" work among my friends and acquaint ances as may chance to see this. Y'our friend, o JOSEPH SPARROW. w CONSUMPTION An Interesting Letter. Very few persons, even among physicians, would have been willing upon any terms to have been in the condition of the writer of the following letter on the 14th of February last. I will anticipate somewhat his report of the facts by saying that on the loth of August he made me a visit, " the very pic ture of good health." Time, which tries and proves all things, has sufficiently tested this case, and shown that neither relapse nor collapse have followed, the cure is perfect, and can be cited among the scores of similar cases the result of my improved mod of treating diseases without medicine. G. M. BOURNE, Water Cure Physician, No. 10, Masonic Temple, Post street. Sacramexto, April SO, 1S6.",. Dr. G. M. Bocrxe Dear Sir : I is with pleasure aud satisfaction that 1 now let vou know of my good health. Looking backrri upon what 1 have passed through, it seems as if I had been lifted from the grave, and I think it my duty to acknowledge to you and the world the benefit I derived fro ji water treatment as administered by you in your celebrated baths. It was in August 18G4, when disease developed itself with a severe cough. I then took medicines, getting worse with chills, fevers, loss of strength, and was pronounced consumptive. This set me to thinking, and finally I determined to leave my business and go to the Sandwich Islands, having been informed that. I could not be cured here. I went to San Francisco, and while waiting for a ship called upon Dr. Bourne, who stated that a trip to the Islands would probably result disastrously, was wholly unnecessary, as I could be speedily cured at his establishment. I placed myself under his treatment, and in one week ras so much improved I thought I could risk re turning home and do my duty as Engineer on the Central Pacific Railroad. The Doc tor objected, but I thought 1 knew better, and returned to duty. In about two weeks my cough returned, and I kept getting worse, and contrary to Dr. Bourne's injunc tion never to take medicine again, committed that folly, and soon was so completely run down that! could scarcely waik; so as a last resort, I concluded once noreto try the Water Cure. I went to San Francisco few of mv friends expecting me to return; in fact t thought my return doubtful. On ar riving at Dr. Bourne's establishment (Feb. 14, lbrtJ5) I was not able to get into the bath without assistance, but in a fewdaj-sl begaa to recover myself again. I remained with him only six weeks, when I felt a "wiser and better man," without the aid of medi cine. I have how been at work several weeks, and find that I am gaining every day and at present bid fair to be stouter than ever before. Persons visiting the Doctor's establishment find it just what it should be. both in the Ladies' and Gentlemen's Depart ments, and I cannot say too much iu praise of the Doctor's kind attentions to his pa tients. This let ter I wnte for the benefit of all the afflicted, to be used as the Doctor decides, and should it be the means of directing any to his care and treatment who (as theV as suredly will) find relief, I will be paid for my trouble.

It is now six years since the Institute was established; during that time there has been over thirty thousand consultations, and in all cases, where the disease was curable. A perfect and permanent cure has been performed.

Red Bluff Independent Jan uary 24th, 1S6G. Glad to Hear It. For several months past Dr. J. II. Josselyn, for the last sixyears so well kfl)WD as the Resident Physician of the Electropathic Institute, 645 Washington strati, San Francisco, has contemplated re tiring from'-hts position for the purpose ol accepting the position as Visiting Physician in one of the large hospitals in his "native State, Massachusetts. The matter becoming known to a number of snTMic gentlemen ofSan Francisco, who, feeling vhat a great loss would occur to the commmmy by the withdrawal of a physician of such scientific attainments as Dr. Josselyn, a meeting was called at which resolutions highly laudatory ol the Doctor's abilities were passed, and "a committee of gentlemen appointed to wait upon him, present the resolutions, and urge him to give up his intention of leaving the State, and continue in his present position. The arguments of the committee facilitated by certain pecuniary propositus, made by the Directors of the Institute, caving induc ed the Doctor to return his position as Resi dent Physician. We announce the success of the negotiations with satisfaction, as it would have been difficult for the numerous patients that heretofore relied on the Doctor for scientific and wpccessful treatment to have found another piiysician capable of fi'l ing his place. Democratic Standard, Jan. 31. Reab Ii. We heartily recommend those of our readers who may be suffering from disease of long standing, or from complaints brought on by the use of mercury, at son former period of their lives, to read the ad vertisement of the Electropathic Institute, to befou&d in our adveitising columns. Dr. J. II. Jo'sWelyn, the ResidentFhysician, has oc cupied that position for six years, and tak ing into consideration the fct that all the Directors of the Institute are all medical men of high standing in the community, it may be considered as proof of Dr. Josseiyn's ability that he has hen retained in the posi tion so long. Dr. Josselyn is a regular grad uate, and is also considered by competent judges to be the most scientfic and success ful t'lectrican in the United States; he will cure more than half the diseases that flesh is heir to without the use of any medicine in all cases where it is deemed necessary, but never uses anything but vegetable prepara tions. The doctor has been very successful in his treatment of diseases incident to fe males, and enjoys a much larger practice in that particular line than any other physician on the Pacific coast. The Electropathic In stitute is located on one of the most popular streets in San Francisco, the rooms for the reception of patients are fitted up in a style of magnificence never before attempted by any medical establishment on this coast, and the Institute is rated in San Francisco as the best in the city. Mountain Democrat. The Best is the Cheapest. This--adage will apply as well to the practice ofMiiedi cines as "to the purchase of merchandise. Thousands on this coast, during the past lifffini years, have had their constitutions ruined by refusing treatment at the hands of first-class physicians, simply because a gang of humbugs, styling themselves doctors, and who are almost destitute of common sense, much more of medical knowledge, offer to treat those who are sick for a less sum than a regular practitioner. A man that would allow a quack to administer medicine to him, is worse than an idiot, for, in nine cases out of ten, the medicine so given, instead of curintr the disease, makes the patient worso and does permanent injury to the system, and oftentimes to such an extent as to pre vent the possibility of curing the original disease. The fact is, that no person should place himself in charge of a physician unlesa he has strong proofs that the doctor is a regular graduate from some well reputed Medical College. The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco, is perfectly enormous ; not more than two of the adver tised physicians have a diploma. Dr. J. H Josselyn, Resident Physician of the Electro pathic Institute, 6-15 Washington street, is one cf these, and is prepared at all times to exhibit his diplomas. Yreka Union Febru ary 10, 1S6'5.
