X- Young Wales- A funny story is told of the second son of the Prince of Wales Prince George Frederic. He is a merry scamp, fond of tricks, and no more awed by the majesty of his sovereign than most lads are by their grand mother. He was even less amenable a few years ago than he is now, and on one occasion, when staying with the Queen at the castle, he played her a pretty prank. She had a sol emn dinner, at which a Grand Duke, Mr. Gladstone, and Dean Stanley assisted. At dessert the children were sent for. When they came, in Gecrge was riotous. Grandmamma reproved him. He went on heedless ly. Grandmamma was again obliged to interfere. At last the younger brother became very obstreperous, and he had to be sent under the ta ble from whence he was not to emerge until he had confessed his sin and promised amendment, lie was very quite, to everybody's surprise ; but, when challenged, as sured his imperturable grandmama that he was not good, but would be soon. At last he was satisfied with his own condition, and emerged as naked as Avhen he was born. He thought Jthat he could not do better than his first parents, and returned, therefore, to a state of Paradisaical inuocence. Life In Tents. The London Telegraph says: It is a pity, with the thermometer at ninety degrees in the shade, that life in tents should not be more gen eral than it is among those whose means and leisure enable them to se cure its advantages. No doubt ths practice has grown within the last few years. None who are familiar with the Thames can fail to have ob served amidst its quiet, beautiful reaches dainty little tabernacles of snowy canvas stretched upon many a green spot along the banks. About them ard in their neighborhood is every sign of comfort. The well-appointed boat rides at her painter a few yards off, complete and finished, from the white rudder-lines to the dainty little fenders that keep her varnish from the rough touch of the lock side. Without the fairy-like dwelling are spread, under the shade of overhanging boughs, comfortable mattresses each resting upon a wat erproof sheet, which effectually pre vents the absorption of moisture from the ground. Suspended from a tripod, over a fire of turf and sticks, the kettle sings a cheerful in vitation to evening tea, while bottles of mineral water and still hock are left cooling in the stream. Camping out has, in short, become a recogniz ed institution. All who have enjoy ed its pleasures know how comforta ble it is, and what fresh life a week under canvas seems always to im part.

Co., "My wife has, for a long: time, been a terrible sufferer from Rheumatism.She has tried many physicians and many reme dies. The only thing which has given her relief Is Centaur Liniment. I am rejoiced to say this has cured her. I am doing what I can to extend its sale. V. 11. RING. This is a sample of many thousand testi monials received, of wonderful cures ef feated by the Centaur Liniment. The in gredients of this article are published around each bottle. It contains Witch Hazel, Mentha, Arnica, Rock Oil, Carbolic, and ingredients hitherto litttle known. It is an Indisputable fact that the Centaur Liniment is performing more cures of Swellings, Stiff Jolrts, Eruptions, Rheu matism, Neuralgia.Sciatica.Caked Breasts, Lock-jaw, etc., than all other Liniments, Embrocatious Extracts, Salves, Ointments and Plasters now in use. For Toothache, Earach.Weak Back. Itch and Cutaneous Eruptions it is admirable. It cures burns and scalds without a scar. Extracts poison from bites and stings, and heals frost-bites and ehillblains in a short time. 'o family can aCord to be without the Centaur Liniment, white wrapper. The Centaur Liniment, Vellow Wrapper, is adapted to the tough skin, muscles and flesh of the animal creation. Its effects upon severe cases of Spavin. Sweeny, Wind Gall, Big Head and Poll Evil, are little less than marvellous. Messrs. J. McClure A Co., Druggists, cor. Elm and Front Sts., Cincinnati, O., say : "In our neighborhood a number of team sters are using the Centaur Liniment. They pronounce it superior to anything they have ever used. We sell as high as four to five dozen bottles per month to these teamsters." We have thousands of similar testimo nials. For Wounds, Galls, Scratehes,Rlng-lone, Jfcc, and for Screw Worm in Sheep it has no rival. Farmers, Livery-men, and Stock-raisers, have in this Liniment a remedy which is worth a hundred times its cost. Laboratorv of J. 1$. Rose tfc Co., 46 Dey St., New York.

"tifebly THE WEEKLY SUIT. l ighteen hundred and seventv-six is the Centennial year. It Is also the year in which an Opposition House of Ii resen talives, the first, since the war, will be in power at. Washington: and the year of the twenty-third election of a President of the United States. Allofihese events are sure to be of great interest and imiortancet especially the two latter; and all of them and everything connected with them, will be Jully and freshly reported and exi ound ed in The Sex. The Opposition House of Representa tives, taking up the line of inquiry opened years ago by The bus, will sternly and diligently investigate the corruptions and misdeeds of Grant's administration: and, will, it is to be hoped, lay the foundation for a new and better period in our nation al history. Of all this The Sun will con tain complete and accurate accounts, fur nishing its readers with early and trust worthy information uion these absorbing topics. The twenty-third Presidential election, with the preparations for it, will be mem orable as deciding upon Grant's aspira tions for a third term of power and plun der, and still more as deciding who shall be the candidate of the party of Reform, and as electing that candidate. Concern ing all these subjects, those who read The Su- will have the constant means of be ing thoroughly well informed. The Weekly spy, which has attained a Circulation of over eighty thousand copies already has its readers in every State and Territory, and we trust that the year LSTti will see their numbers doubled. It will continue to be a thorough newspaper. All the general news of the day will be found in it, condensed when unimportant, at full length when of moment; and always we trust, treated in a clear, interesting and in structive manner. It is our aim to make The Weekly Srs the best family newspaper in the world and we shall continue to give in its col umns a large amount of miscellaneous reading, such as stories, tales, poems scientific intelligence and agricultural in formation, tor which we are not, able to make room in our daily edition. The agri cultural department especialU- is one of its prominent features. The fashions are also regularly reported in its columns: and so are the markets of every kind The Weekly Sun, eight pages with fifty six broad columns is only $1 20 a year lostage prepaid. As this price barely re pays the cost of the paper, no discount" can be made from this rate to clubs, agents, postmasters, or anyone. The Daily Sun, a large four page news paper of twenty-eight columns, gives all the news for two cents a copv. Subscrip tion, postage prepaid, 55c. a month or $6 50 a year.
