TIIE GREAT   REMEDY   OF  THE
AGK.
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
The   effect   ot   (he   Ointment   on    the
Hystein
To the T'-ry co o find ren're of al] dia a?es
which affect tlie human body, this remarkable
pftparftliOQ penetrates. U disappears uHer
the friction of the hands, aa salt disappears
when rubbed u,ion meat. The unguent perform!'its healing errand rapidly, safely, aad
without pain. Simple eruptions, open sores
hard tumors, BCrOfUioai developments of all
kinds, ahcesses, cancers, old wounes. and, in
fact, every species of inflammation and suppuration, whether in -tbe akin, tbe flesh, the
glandl, or among the muscles, can be arrest«b
in ita destructive course, and permanently
cured wittJuut dnngor by rubbing in this inestimable Ointment.
Bad    Logs,  Bad   fin nuts,     Sorei.   anil
fleet*.
In many Hospitals in Europe this celebrated
remedy is now used for the cure of old wounds.
Sores, and ulcers ; fn Spain and Portugal, nnd
in many parts of Italy, the first Physicians ro-
rcgul.irly prescribe its use. It is a Bovt.eigr
remedy for bud breasts and bad legs; and like*
wise for nil skin diseases. It is to be found in
the chest of nearly every sailor, soldier, anv
emigrant.
IinpriKlcnnlcs   of   Ynutlr; —Sore*   and
Ulcer*.
The ahove class o*' complnintfl ia surely re-
ooved by nightly fomenting the parts witt
, iMt water, and then by most effectunlly rub
oing in this Ointment. Persons su fitting fron
ihese direful complaint! should lose not a mo
nienl in arresting their progress. It should bi
a* derstood tbat it is not sufficient merely to
smear the Ointment on the affected parts, bu)
it must be well rubbed in for some considerable
time tw • or three times a day, that it may bo
taken into the system, whence it will remov.
only hidden sore or would as effectually ft.
though it were palpable to the eye. Urcad and
water poultices, alter the rubbing in o) tt
Ointment, wid do great service. This is tb*
only proper treatment for females in OMM ci
cancer i:i the stomach, or for those who lUfilf
from a general bearing don n.
Plies, FUtnlaft, Ntrfetnrtft.
Blotches, analso swellings, cun with certain);!
be radically cured if the Ointment, be usee"
freely, and the Pills be taken night and mom.
ing as recommended in the printed inst nil tiions
When treated In any otherway these complaint,
inly dry up in one place io break out in an*
ithnr; whereas this Ointment will remove th*
manor from the system, and leave the patien
i vigorous aud healthy being. It will requiri
.ime, aided by tiie use of tne Pills, to ensure
aBting cure.
DlptherJa,   Brorxhltli,   Bote   Throats,
Any of the above class of diseases may be
-ured by well rubbing the Ointment three
„imca a day upon the skin covering the throat,
chest, and neck ot the patient. The unguent
will soon penetrate tbe pores and give immediate relief. To allay the fever and lessen tin
InflRtnatldn, eight or ten Pills should be taken
night and morning. The Ointment will pio-
duce perspiration, which is so essential for
remo-ing fevers, sore throats, and those op-
cessions of the chest which arise from
ABthna, Bronchitis, and other causes.
Both the  Ointment and   i'ills   should

Our Future I.<fflMinture.
The charncter of the men who are
abont to take charge of the government
of the united colony of Vancouver Island
aod British Columbia is a matter of serious speculation just now. The head anl
front of the oligarchy is Governor Seymour, a man so childish, that because the
people ol Victoria did not feast him and
tike oil their huts every time he came
threading his way through our intricate
harbor in bis steam yacht (royalty's representative must of course ape royally];
and   becauso   tho   Victoria   newspapers
ciiy, it would not alter tilings one iota ■
tbe flunkey proportion would still be

of tbe capital, although for our part we
ihink it u most insit'iiifnant one, who
fancies for a moment it will be anywhere
I ut where Govern t Seymour says ?
Aud is His Excellency going to stultify
himself in the eyes nf iho Coloniul
Officii by mnkiiiK bis capital in the
very town whoso harbor is not wide
enough or deep enough, according to his
despatch, to admit the Leviathan ? Hns

Thanks to the supreme contempt which
those intellectual and putiiolic giants of
the English Colonial Office have for the
British colonist, the word of Seymour
stood against tbe colony, and we were
obliterated. It is to this man, guided by
so erratic a mind, moved by snch ungenerous and pueiilo impulses, wc are to look
for a policy to slay the present exodus
and to allure an immigration to our
shores I And who are to be his assistants
in this great project? Thirteen salaried
■ officials, who ure as destitute of legislative ability as they are of colonial experience—who have about as much idea of
the wants of a new country as u Flathead
Indian has of astronomy—and whose
great aim is to put their hand as deep
into the public pocket as it can go, and to
perform as little other labor as ;hey possibly can. They are the very essence oi
that "haw-haw" class which Punch has
so immortalized, and which form the ludicrous side of English national character.
Give them a pair of kid gloves, a little
brandy aud a few cigars, and they will
while away the tediousness of their len
to four office hours, with the ah' of martyrs. Talk to them about Ashing, yon
know, and shooting, you know, and they
will grow " H" less eloquent; but bore
them with business, bring their enlarged
minds down to the transactions of ordinary public affairs, and they will show
yon by their grimaces and their actions,
that the people were made for them, you
know, not they for tho people.
Does any reasonnblo man expect wisdom from such a quarter as this 1 Does
ho expect thut liheral und enlightened
measures, if ihey be brought forward by
tho people's representatives, will meei
with official support ? Wc hove had a
sample of official liberality and intelligence
already in the Legislative Councils of
both colonies—we huve seeu how similar
wero the instincts which guided toil)
bodies—how tlieir selfishness wns only
equalled by theii narrow-mindedness, and
how the great aim was to thwart public
opinion rather than support it. Can the
leopard change his spots? Can these
men become in the twinkling of an eye
edacious men, prudent men, liberal men '
Snrely reason is against the hypothesis.
And what have we to hope for ? Are the
nine or ten popular members by a new
process of legerdemain to outvote the
majority; or are thu officials desirous of
■o reconstituting thc Cornell that the
people will be tlieir masters, not they the
people's ?—that their salaries and positions
will cease to be under their own or the Governor's control ? This would certainly
be a phase in the official character as
novel us it would be refreshing. We are
afraid, however, that thoso who depend
on so extraordinary a phenomenon will
be disappointed, end that the constitution
of tbo united colony will long remain in
its repulsive form.
Let us direct our attention to even the
popnlor element, and what do we expect
frcm it ?     Does not past experience  iu
the British  Colombian Council teach  us
that it is next to impossible to get independence in an  officiul chamber?    How
many of   the  elected members  will  be
found bold enough to  advocate measures
for the public welfare, if those  measures
as they are most likely to do, trench upoi
the powers or emoluments of ihe officials
We are  afruid ihey  will  be very  few.
The  official  influence  over  the  popular
members will be greater than the  influence of thc  consliluencies, and we arc
qnite prepared lo see a majority of the
members elected throw themselvtg on the
tide of the Executive.   If all the rcpre-
etntativH   were   taken    from   Victoria
t
trre.it respect. It is evident ei.ough that
Governor Seymour is not a philosopher,
but wc can scarcely imagine a man who
has shown so much method In his antipathy to this place and in his friendship for
Sew Westminster, reversing his whole
policy, turning suddenly round, and laying
his ill-gotten trophies, for which he has
fought so strenuously, al the feet of *,he
hated, the despised, and the vanquished.
A large proportion of the children of
the working classes in England now being
christened are named 'Gladstone.'

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
Haa long been mannfa-tun'd by a practical chemist, and
every ounce of ft under ble own eye, with Invariable accu-
rary "and iare. It is aealeit and pi-otected by law from counterfeits and eoniieguentiy con he relied on as genutue,
without adulteration. It puppliei tho purest remedy tho
world haa ever known for tbo cure cf all pulmonary complaints; for Coughs Corns IIuAEsENiaa, Autiima, Caour,
Wuoopi.vo Cough. Bboschitis, Ikcihest CoNBUMpnoK, and
for the relief of consumptive patients In advanced stagea of
tbo dlwwao. Ar time makes these facte wider aud better
known, this medicine baa gradually become .the .best rolI-
anee of tho afflicted, from tbe log cabin of tbe American
peasant to the palaces of European fclngs. Throughout
this entire country, iu every state and citft aod indeed almost every hamlet it contains Crebrt TEOTORiL Is known
tgrtU'2 best of all remedies for dtsea3ea of the throat and
lungs. In many Ibretgn countries It is extensively used by
their most Intelligent phyaicSana. If there Is any dependence on what men of every station certify it bas done for
them; If we oan trust our own sennet wheu we see tbe dan-
gerona affoctions of the lungs yield to tt; if we can depend
on tho assurance of intelligent physicians whoee bustneea
ts to know; in abort, if there is any reliance upon any
thing, then ia it irrefutably proven that this medicine does
cure the class of diseases it is designed for, beyond any and
all other remedies known to mankind. Nothing but its intrinsic virtues, and tbo unmistakable benefit conferred ou
thousands of sutfcrers, could originate and maintain tho
reputation it enjoys. While many inferior roraedhf how
been thrust upon tho community, have failed, and bean
discarded, tbia haa gained friends by every trial, conferred
benefits on the afflicted they can never forget, and produce^
cures too numeroue and remarkable to be forgotten.

Fiat.—A fire broke out this morniug.
about eleven o'clock, in a hou-e at tbe head
of View ►treet, recently tbe properly of Mr.
J. McCredy, and occupied by the families of
Mr. Chas. Knit, hardware merchant, und Mr.
Sbain, builder. The alarm was speedily cou-
veyed to town and the fire comnnnies, the
Deluge leading, closely followed by lbe
Timers, rapidly made their way to the spot.
Meanwhile the occupant! of thu burning
dwelling, assisted by tbe neighbors, began
to carry out the liirnilup-, lbe grealcr poitioa
of u iii.li, as wel: ns that from the bottM O
Mr. Mala, dnine immediately adjoin ng, was
saved, although somewhat damaged in uio v ing'
When the engines arrived the roof of th*
bouse, a two-siory one, wai all in 11 nies; tbe
liremen, however, at oucu went to work, and
In a few minutes hid two streams of matat
playing on the fire, with fair prospects of
speedily drowning tt out. Hut the supply of
water began to fail, and Hiring the delay of
moving the enuines lo fresh wells tba fire
gain, d headway, and it became evident that
the 'mil ling could not be saved The Hook k
Ladder Co now came into requisition, and a
portion of tbe burning structure was pulled
down ; a fresh su;.ply of waler being procured the e'igines lesumed playing, aud so<<n
obtained a wns'ery over the flames. The
bonis w.,8 a pomplele wreck, but the small
dwelling adjoining was saved by ilie efforts of
the firemen. At the commencement of thc
fire a little son of Mr. Shain, aged 19 years,
while running home from school, fell down
and broke his collar-bone. The firemen behaved admirably, and hud ihe supply of water
ai first been sufficient, they would without
doubt have saved the building It would bc
invidious to particularize when all did so well,
but we may g've especial credit io the new
chief nnd assistant engineers, who mounted
the roof amid flame and smoke and directed
the efforts of tbe firemen. They were ably
seconded by lbe foreman and assistants of the
difl'erent companies, as well as by individual
firemen nnd many citizens. The department
generally deserves the hearty thanks of both
the sufferers by the fire, and the citizens for
their laborious, dangerous and self-denying
efforts. The house was insured in the North
British and Mercantile Insurance Co. for S
We are sorry to learn thai none of the occupants had a'.y insurance ou their property.
Mr Neustadt a lodger in Mr. Miain's lost
everything he had iu the house. The fire is
supposed to have originated from a defective
flue.

Faancisco.—A despatch in the Oregonian
says: General II. M. Nuglee htts fi'ed his
answer in the breach of promise suit brought
against him by Mnry L. Schell, to recover
$100,000-damages. Ho denies that he ever
promised to marry her, and avers that her
conduct has been unchasto and immoral since
the (ime of such supposed promise of marriage ; that her character and reputation are
. bad, und that the fuels uf her bud reputation
were not known to him until the time of the
supposed promise of marriage.
Tnn RoBso-AuKiticAN TnLKORAPir—A despatch published in the Oregonian says : A
letter fiom thc Western Union Telegraph
party, dated nt St. Michel's, North Wet
Coast, Aug. 2nd, say the ships from San
Francisco had not arrived, but were expected
dally. The telegraph employees Had bad no
direct news from tlie outer world for more
lhan a year. Colonel Kennicott, Icadei of
tho St. Michel's party, died suddenly nt
Milato Bay lust May. The rcmninder of the
party were well. Stores were plenty and the
Russian officials had treated the party with
great kindness nnd hospitality.

Purity of Charactfh.—Henry Won1
Bcecher draws the following beautiful
parallels:—' Over the beati'y of the plum
and npricot there grows a I.loom nud
beutily more exquisite tlinti the fruit itself
—n soft delicate flush that overspreads its
blushing cheek. Now if you strike your
tuuid over that, and it is ouce pone, il is
gone forever, for it never grows but once.
The flower lliat hangs in the morning impended with dew— arrayed with jewels—
once shake it, so tbat the beads rolls off,
and you may sprinkle water over it as
you plense, yet it can never be made
again what it was when tbo dew fell
slightly upon it from heaven I On a frosiy
morning you may see the panes of glass
covered with landscapes, mountains, luke?
and trees, blended in a beautiful fantastic
picture. Now lay your hand upon the
glass, and by a scratch of your Gnger, or
by the warmth ofthe palm, all the delicate
tracery will bo obliterated. So there is
in youth a beauty nnd purity of character,
which, wheu onco touched anil defiled, can
Dever be restored ; a fringe more delicate
than frost work, nnd which, when torn
and broken, will never be ro-cmbroidered.
A man who bus spotted end 6oiled his
garmenls in youth, though he may seek
to make them white again, can never
wholly do it, even if he were to wafli them
with tears. When a young man leaves
his father's house, with tho blessing of his
mother's tears still wet upon his forehead,
if bo at onco lose thut early purity of
character, it is a loss that ho can never
make whole again. Such is tho consequence of crime. Its effects can can never
be eradicated , it can only be forgiven."
The Atlantic Cable Taiuff.—The
lariff of charges for the Atlantic Cable
is beginning to excite considerable inquiry end discussion abroad as well ns at
borne. A letter to the London Neat
states that the French Government has
been in commnnication with t lie directors
conccrnnig the tariff, nnd the prospect
now is that the demand for tho service of
this li.ie will daily Increase, Many of
tho leading firms in London and New
York have used it daily since it came into
operation, and in one case upward of
JB800 was paid for a single dispatch.
At tho present rate of working nud at
tbe rates now demanded, the Cable would
earn £l,500,0u0 per annum. It is not
probable that one or even half n dozen
cables will meet the demand for telegraphing between Ihe old and new world.
There are twenty or more linos between
London and Liverpool, and often during
the day those get 'blocked' witb messages. It is now contemplated to charge
the messages by the Cable according to a
graduated scale — first-class messages,
having the immediate priority, charged
tbe highest, second and third cln-'s, guarantied to be delivered in a certain time,
to be at a lower rate, but nothing of this
kind has been decided upon. No rales
lower than the present will be established,
however, and the probability is that llit-y
will be higher-
The Atlantic Cabi.k—At a recent
meeting of the French Acndeiny of Sciences, M. Babinet suggosted that it wonld
be well to take advantage ofthe Atlantic
telegraph to dotcrmino with precision the
longitude of tho American terminus.
There was reason to make haste, be said,
because tliere wore very few chances of
the transmissions lasting long. As &
reason for bis opinion, M. Babinet produced a piece of heavy telegraph cable
which had been fivo years at the bottom
of tho British Channel. Tlio exterior
metallic covering wus completely eaten
off by the salt water, which had also
commenced to affect the central twist.
Afier stating the differences iu the sizes
of the cable exhibited nnd Ihe Atlantic
Cable, which is smaller, and ay ei ring
that the sea water destroys fully a millimetre ('ubout 1-25th part of an inch) of
the metallic covering every year, M. Babinet reiterated biu belief that the success
of this cable would be of only ephemeral
duration.

" Give me a place to rost my lever on,"
lays Archimedes, "aud I will move the
world." " Give me pure and unadulterated
drugs," says Medicus, of the olden time,
" nnd I will cure disease."
In one sense, both of these learned pundits
were the veriest charlatans. They knew there
was no place to rest their lever on, either to
move the world or cure disease. Mechanism
was in a backward state, and the medical profession was but unothet name for sorcery.
and all thc adjuncts of magic filters und
charms ot the " evil eye," ke.
But these latter days have homo unto u.»
something more than even superstition nnd
Its crew ever dreamt of in their maddest philosophy. In these days of practical science,
what was theory of yesterday ir fact to-day,
and all the old time notions become as bubbles
in the sun, and burst and break with every
breath we draw.
Let Archimedes shoulder his lever and we
will find a resting place for it to move tbe
world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant and
toil no more for tho drugs he so sorely needs,
for we have them at our hand, ever ready to
serve them at his beck.
Refined in tho laboratory of I)r. Magwol,
tha finest materials known In the medical pro
fession are obtainable by any one. His
Billious. Dyspeptic, and Diarrhoea Pill3 stand
unrivalled,"and his Salve operates with magical effect upon burns, scalds, and all sores and
■leers ofthe skin.
In fact, we think Maoqibi/s Pills and Salve
are the wonder of this centnry, nnd we are
happy in the thought that many others of our
brethren of the cralt agree with us. We would
earnestly connsel thnt all families provide
themselves with Dr. Maggiel's Prepainiions at

Ing or drinking, should take nbout ten of t'.:ea-
lamons pills at bed time, from wbich will ri-a

Want  or Strength and Energy.
Persons of sedentary habits, or those troubled in mind, working in Factories or Coa)
Pits, who cannot obtain that amount ol fresi
air and exercise which nature requires, sulftf
from weakness and delility, lowness of spirits
and want of appetite. All such should take *
lose or two of theso Pills every three or fom
days, as they act gently and ill. dually on tb*
system and impart vigor and energy to th*
body, which is always followed by a good
appetite, Bound and refreshing sleep, and •
I'ngh How of spirits.
For the Cure or Dropsy.
The cfficicy of Holloway's Pills in Dropsy
is extraordinary. They act with such a peculiar effect upon the Bystem, that the fiiidr
causing this direful complaint, are pereeptibl
carried off and prevented from any lurthel
accumulation. The sufferer rigains a bioy-
ancy of spirits and rejoices in a completely
renovated constitution. It la indispensably
necessary tlmt the Ointment should he most
effectunlly rubbed into the complaining par'-fl
during the w hole course of treatment.

and bowels would oe gently but el'ectually
cleansed hv this milu aperient; the d*pruved
niimors correctea anu ine secretions duly regulated. A perfect cure would «.oon be effected, and tbe I'ttle patient restored to soun"*
