THE AVISB ITEHPUTEK
BT TEXV.U RIVERS.
Nature is God"s interpreter ;
Wiser tban Seraphim,
She speaks to all who come to her,
In varied tongties, of Him.
Before His golden throne she stands
In reverntial fear,
And molds her voice at His commands
To fit each listening ear.
To regal bears whose thrones are high.
God's princes, kings and czars,
She speaketb nightly from the sky
The language of the stars.
The holy words these great hearts hear
Glide down the rays of light
Too softly e'er to stir the clear,
Derp silence of the night.
And what she speaks from the bright
land
To mankind may be told
Only by those who understand
This golden tongue of old.
To hearts who keep their watch fires
bright,
On steepy headlands, she,
In many tones, ppeuk3 day aud night
The language of the sea.
They hoar her voice, deep-toned and
grave,
Breaking against the beach,
As it roles in wave after wave,
Into a mighty speech.
At interval it comelh low,
Soothing, and soft, and calm,
"With urdulalions like Ibe slow,
Smooth waving of a plan.
And there are thoughtful hearts, and
meek,
Tender, and wise, and good.
To whom I think .she loves to speak
The language of the wood.
Fair words that wear the sunshine' gold
Between the April showers.
Come to them softly in the mold
Of tender leaves and flowers.
Soft whispers on a Summer day
Come floating through the trees,
And thrill" these hearts, while others say,
"'Tis but a passing breeze'
Toward the wood their footsteps turn,
Tho' cold, and bleak, and bare ;
They always hear her voice and learn
A sunny wisdom there.
Oh ! bless this wise interpreter
To whom the gift is given
To soothe the hearts who come to her,
And charm them up to Heaven J
1 "WONDER WHY.
I wonder why this world's good things
Should fall in such unequal shares ;
TThy some should taste ol all the joys.
And others only feel the cares !
I wonder why the sunshine bright
Should fall in the paths some people
tread;
While others shiver in the shade
Of clouds that gather overhead !
1 wonder why the trees that hang
So full of luscious fruit, should grow
Only where some may reach and eat,
While others faint and thirsty go!
Why should sweet flowers bloom for
some,
For others only thorns be found!
And some grow rich from fruitful earth.
While others till but barren ground !
1 wonder why the hearts of some
O'erllow with joy and happiness,
While others pro their lonely way
Unblessed with aught of tenderness!
1 wonder why the eyes of some
Should ne'er be moistened with a tear.
"While others weep Irom mot n till night,
Their hearts all crushed with sorrow
here !
Ah f well we may not know indeed
The why's, the wherefores of each life ;
But this we know there's One who sees
And watches us through joy and strife.
Euch life its mission here fulfills,
And only He may know llie end ;
And loving Hint we can be strong
Thro' storms and sunshine lie may send.
How Radicals Get Rich.
AN ENTERPRISING SECRETARY.
George M. Kobeson's sudden
rise from poverty to nfiluence since
he became nominal secretary of the
navv is accounted for by recent
transfer by E. G. Cattell, of Phila
delphia, of 30,000 worth of Wash
ington city property to Robeson
w as the first clue. Goimr behind
it, it was found that Cattell is a
Philadelphia ship-chandler, and a
brother of ex-Senator Cattell, of
Xew Jersey, himself a big contract
or and that E. G. Cattell, of Phila
delphia supplies the navy-yards at
Philadelphia, Ilrooklyn, and Marc
Island with everthing that is con
sumed there,under contracts award
ed him without competition and
without proposals. Robeson would
have given him the Washington
navy-yard on the same terms, but
Sam Brown was an incumbent that
he could not dispossess. Xow,
however, he has been bought off
by a swindling live oak contract of
500,000 in Louisiana, and proba
bly after this month CattelTs sway
will include that yard.
THE CASE OF THE TENNESSEE.
Some of the contracts made by
Cattell on behalf of the navy de
partment show how he became able
to transfer Washington city prop
erty to Robeson. The Tennessee,
of San Domingo memory, laid by
as worthless since that, her tirst
service, was built in 1SG4, in the
Brooklj'n yard, and cost $1,500,
000 there. Then Porter expended
another 8250,000 on her. Her hull
was condemned as un-seaworthy
six months ago. Robeson and
Cattell secretly and without pro
posals, contracted with John Roach
fc Sons, of New York city, to build
an entire new set of engines and
machinery for the rotten steamer
Tennessee. Robeson and Cattell
agreeing to pay 700,000 for the
job. Xo board of survey ever con
cerned her present machinery, and
not an engine-buider in the country
save Roach & Sons knew that the
navy department ever contemplat
ed such repairs, and engine-builders
are unanimous in the opinion that
there was a pofit of at least 8350,
000 in the job. '

OILED FLOORS.
From the Manufacturer and Builder
Oiling improves a floor in sever
al ways. Giease spots, of course,
will not affect the wood thus treat
ed : and much less scrubbing than
is necessary for a plain floor will
suffice to keep it clean. Moreover,
the appearance is improved by the
oil. Many of our native woods
prepared in this manner becomes
positively handsome. Finally, it
gives the surface a harder texture,
which makes it wear longer and
more uniformly. Paint costs more,
takes longer to dry, and wears off
more easily, since it simply forms a
crust or coating upon the surface,
while oil penetrates the wood.
Hence an oiled floor looks better
than a painted one, especially if a
little color, such as Van Dyke
brown, umber, or burned sienna is
added to the oil To prepare a
floor in this manner, take raw lin
seed oil, or some cheap oil, not of
fensive in odor and capable of dry
ing; mix it, if desired, with some
such transparent color as those
mentioned above; and apply it
with a common paint brush, Lay
it on smoothly, so that it will strike
in uniformally, over the whole sur
face and not stand in spots. This
may be done at night after the
day's work ; and the place will be
ready for use again the next morn
ing. As far as oiled surface is con
cerned, it might be stepped upon
at once without injury; but there
would be danger in that case ot
tacking the grease to other parts
of the house. A new coat of oil,
applied in this way once or twice a
year is sufficient to keep a floor in
perfect order. This treatment is
to be heartily recommend for the
floors of kitchens, pantries, veran
das, closets, bath-rooms and labor
ers' bed-rooms. It is also a good
plan in children's apartments, par
ticularly in training them to do
their own house work, to leave
without carpet or matting that
part of the floor where the bed
stands, with a few feet around it,
and to oil the wood. The floor
under the bed can then be kept free
from dust, and the sweepings can
be readily removed ; while wash
stands, etc., can be so disposed as
to give the youngsters free scope
for their duck-like ablutions, with
out injury to carpets. In country
houses the plan might be carried
still further. We recently had all
the floors in a newly-built house
oiled; and we think it wise econo
my. Many well to-do families in
Europe have no carpets at all ; and,
though there are some disadvan
tages in such a course, there are
some points gained. We think it
gives cleaner houses, with less
house cleaning. Putting down,
taking up, and beating carpets is
the most vexatious and laborious
part of our domestic economy, as
their cost and destruction consti
tute one g-eat item of expense.
Still, we do not attack carpets
though, speaking of attacks, what
a tax'the tacks are! we only say,
where you don't need a carpet, by
all means oil your floor.
LIME.
We find the following in ex
change: A standing antidote for
poison by oak, ivy, etc., is to take
a handful of quicklime dissolve in
water, let it stand half an hour,then
paint the poisoned parts with it.
Three or four applications will nev
er fail to cure the most aggravated
case. Poison from bees, hornets,
spider bites, etc., is instantly arrest
ed by the application of equal
parts of common salt and bicar
bonate of soda, well rubbed in on
the place bitten or stung.
ATE YOU It REDS.
Some advocates for excessive
neatness have the beds made im
mediately after they are vacated.
It is not healthy. They need to air
for a couple of hours. Open the
windows as wide as possible, and
set open the door also. Unless
there is a thorough draught there
is no true ventilation of a sleeping
room. The only exception to this
rule, is during high winds, when
the door cannot remain open, and
in very wet and foggy weather.
ECONOMY IX FATTENING ANIMALS.
It has been proved by experi
ment that the more rapidly an ani
mal is fattened the less quantity of
food is necessary to sustain its
mere vitality. Thus, an animal
can be more cheaply fattened by
consuming ten bushels of corn in
two months than if four months
were occupied in the process. Lib
eral and abundant feeding is the
most economical, and a saving of
time in producing the same result
is a gain in the profit.
Her Views. Just listen to
Grace Greenwood: "If she had
the framing of the law, only such
women would be allowed to vote
as had sewing-machines and knew
how to use them; no woman would
have a vote who could not cast up
her millinery accounts and cut
them down, who could not make a
loaf of bread., a pudding, sew on a
button, wash the dishes, and on a
pinch keep a boarding-house and
support a husband decently.'
Longevity of Presidents.
Washington died at the age of 67 ;
John Adams, 91 ; Jefferson, 83 ;
Madison, 73 ; John Quincy Adams,
81 ; Jackson, 77; Van Buren, 80 ;
Harrison, GS ; Tyler, 72; Polk, 54;
Taylor, 00; Pierce, 65; Buchanan,
73; Linco'n, 56. Those who have
filled the office and are still living
are Fillmore, now 62 ; Johnson
62; and Gen. Grant, 50.
A soft blow : A gentle breeze.
Amnesty. Senator Schurz con
cluded his speech, in the United
States Senate, m favor ot universal
amnesty, in the following language:
"People are fast becoming aware
that great as the crime of rebellion
is, there are other villianies which
imperatively demand correction.
They are beginning to look behind
these vociferous assertions of aus
tere and exclusive patriotism, to see
what abuses they are intended to
disguise, and to discover that good
and honest government in the
South, as well as all over the coun
try, would do infinitely more to re
vive true loyalty and a healthy na
tional spirit than laws calculated
to keep alive the prejudices and re
sentment of the past."
IT emiliating. The carrying
capacity of the merchant navy of
Great Britain is very nearly equal
to that of all the rest of the world
combined. How much that navy
contributes to the wealth, dignity,
influence and importance of that
nation is simply incalculable. If
we attempted to draw a comparis
on between the ocean commerce of
Great Britain and that of the
United St ates, remarks the Detroit
Union, the result is most humiliat
ing to our-national pride. Yet we
have none to blame but ourselves.
We have made her a present of a
large part of her ocean commerce
bv our suicidal system of "protec
tion."
Ax Insult. A Mississippi pa
per says: "It is an insult to the
reorh of Mississippi that Ames
should register his name at Wash
ington as a 'Mississippi Senator
He doesn't own a single foot of
land in the State nor pay a single
dollar of taxes. . He once resided
a few months at Vicksburg as an
army officer, but on return there
he even refused to pay his poll tax.
And this shameless carpet bagger
never intends to become a citizen
of the State which he thus misiep
rcsents. lie belongs in Maine, and
when his term expires, if bayonets
are not again used to force his re
election, he will live with his father-in-law,
Ben Butler, as he has not
brains enough to earn an honest
living for himself. "
. -
Much Love. The Philadelphia
Post tell of one John Henry Bor
aef, of that city, who was stricken
with small-pox. He was engaged to
Miss Mary E. Ewing, and she in
sisted on marrying him to nurse
him. Xo clergyman would per
form the ceremony, so articles of
agreement were drawn up. Both
died of the small-pox.

Ayer's Ague Oure,
For Fever and Aue, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, liemittent Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c.,
and indeed all the affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poisons.
No one remedv is inmW
called for by the necessities of
the American people than a
sure and safe cure lor Fever
and Ague. Such we are now
enabled to oiler, with a perfect
certainty that it will eradicate
the disease, and with ssnr.
ance, founded on proof, that no harm can arise
from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the com
munities where it prevails. Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk whirh
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful dis
temper. This "CuitK" expels the miasmatic
poison of Fkvek and Ague from the fvstem,
and prevents the development of the disease, if
taken on the tirst approach of its premonitory
symptoms. It is not only the best remedv ever
yet discovered for this class of complaints, but
also the cheapest. The large quantity we sup
ply for a dollar brings it within the reach of
everybody; and in bilious districts, where
Fkveu and Ague prevails, everybody should
have it, and use it freely, both for cure and pro
tection. It is hoped this price will place it wiihin
the reach of all the poor as well as the rich.
A great superiority ot this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intormittents is, that it contains no Qui
nine or mineral; consequently it produces no
quinism or other injurious effects whatever upon
the constitution. Those cured by it are left as
healthy as if they had never had the disease.
Fever and Airue is not alone the consequence
of the miasmatio puison. A great variety of dis
orders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralaria, Rheumatism, Goiit, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen,
Hysterics, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis,
and derangement of the Stomach, all of which,
when originating in this cause, put on the in
termittent type, or become periodical. This
"Citue" expels the poison from the blood, and
consequent-lv cures them all alike. It is an in-,
'valuable protection to immigrants and persons
travelling or temporarily residing in tho mala
rious districts. If taken occasionally or daily
while exposed to the infection, that will be ex
creted from the system, and cannot accumulate
in sufficient quantity to ripen into disease.
Hence it is even more valuable for protection
than cure; and few will ever suffer from Inter
mittents if they avail themselves of the protec
tion this remedy affords.
For fJerr Complaint, arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stim
ulating the Liver into healthy activity, aud pro
ducing many truly remarkable cures, where
othor medicines fail.

I have carefully examined Dr. Henley's IXL
Bitters, and have failed to detect anything whicU
could injure even the most delicate constitution,
from the composition of the Bitters, as far as I
am able to determine it. I should judge that tha
IXL Bitters must be a very efficient remedy in
Dyspepsia. Indigestion, Loss of Appetite and simi
lar complaints, being composed of a number of
vegetable drugs which are principally used in dis
eases of that nature, and are of the greatest
efficiency in their care.
