TIES, 
Wo offer to the American public a new and valu-
able remedy for the above mentioned diseases. 
Fowler's compound extract is composed of the beet 
medicines known to Materia 'Meilca. It is perfect-
ly pure in all its ingredients, being composed of 
several well known articles universally used by the 
be»t physicians, each of which, in combination, 
supplies what expeiience has shown to be wanting 
when singly employed, but the result of patient in-
vestigation, reqnirinji time, labor and skill, so as 
to give the public a genuine article, which they 
can tely upon, and in place of the worthless and 
dangerous Patent Medicines flooding the country ; 
and therefore enables ns to warrant Fowler's Com-
pound Extract to be the most perfect curative for 
diseases of the blood ever discovered. 
SCROFULA. 
This Compound is a never-Hailing cure for this 
terrible disease. How many diseases have their 
seat in the blood—diseases which have been treated 
vainly for years. If the bood alone is purified, in 
most cases health and happiness will soon return. 
Dr. Fowler s Compound acts especially upon the 
virus in the blood, causing in time the disappear-
ance of the hideous sores, and restoring the skin 
to a healthful appearance, the eye clear and spark-
ling, and the whole human organization becomes 
healthy.

IN CAMP, MUSKOKA, Canada, Oct. 16. 
Twelve days our lives, our fortunes and 
our sacred camp equipments have heroical-
ly struggled log.-ther in the narrow cou-
fines of four birch bark caDoes to accomplish 
the laborious ascent of fifty or sixty miles 
of the Muskoka river. 
Tbay have been days of toil and drudg-
ery. 
Like ourselves, tha days have been 
toil-worn, toil-strung and toll-wasted,—self-
explaining and expressive are those com-
pound, qualifying adjectives, and precisely 
adapted to the circumstance? of our present 
situation. 
"With a tireless wing and a dauntless breast, 
Without a home or a hope of rest, 
Lite the Petrel wheeling over foam and spray 
Upward and onward we press our way. 
The clear sky has smiled upon us with a 
brilliant, cheerful October sun or frowned 
by turns with forbidding storms and angry 
clouds. 
The climate has alternated in com-
fortable weather arid in excessive cold. 
Til<» Muskoka is a noble brook ; it is a wild, 
a romantic, gently flowing, log-obstructed 
tortuously 
winding rivulet. 
Amid what 
northern regions it coils the weird solitude 
ia its serpentine embrace no manner of man 
knoweth. 
"River—t'.y bed is rock, the wilderness 
thy home." So broad and grand and mag-
nificent is its shaded pathway through the 
forest that when the challenge is sent across 
from towering pines upon opposite banks 
to join at mid stream th ir storm tossed 
crests in the solemn death crash that calls 
forth the echoes of its mighty solitudes ; 
the mirth and disdain of the wild and serene 
Muskoka for the variety and mockery of 
their effort are unbounded. 
A fallen tree upon its banks makes about 
as much show as the "fly upon the ele-
phant's back" that we have heard about, 
though it may have kissed the breeze when 
standing at 200 feet or more above the wa-
ters that reflected its symmetrical trunks. 
(Not the elephante—the tree, sir 1 the tree!

ness/the highest degree of literary culture,

Yet is it not probable that the wilderness is 
just as conscious of the existence of[ its 
"bowels" as of its heart or stomach? Of 
its intestines as"f its viscera 1 Of its abdo-
men as of its thorax? 
Of its digestive 
functions as of its great centre of life, mo-

what name they m a y be Called! 
Here they 
are and here they will exist forever I In 
the recesses that nature has provided |J in 
all the majesty of grand reality and supe-
rior to all sublimity of imagination! Hoary 
antiquity that was young in the tradition 
of the prophets, th;,t consumed a prattling 
childhood 
with Adam and Eve in Eden, 
rises up to confront us here in the full ter-
ror of his dread, mysterious, superstitious 
presence. Let him rise 1 Let him continue 
to rise 1 I have no objection whatever]to 
iuterpose to the untrammeied "rise and 
progiess" too of antiquity in its own, un-
heard of, savage and insufferable domain, 
and when our brave, sensible, weather 
worn, camp-smoked society of adventurers 
shall rise for its final departure I will help 
kindle one wrathful camp fire that shjul 
kiss the very tree-tops and fitly represent 
the keenness and the fullness of my joy « 
the completion of this my fourth, last and 
best carousal in the wilds of Muskoka. j I 
say carousal because I wish to expresssotitie-
thing. 
Excursion sounds tame in compari-
son with carousal. 
Say p-u m p-kins 10 tpe 
scholars in school where critical acumen [is 
essential, but when felicitating 
among 
plain, toiling industrious farmers 
punkifis 
out and out sounds as well. 
1 
iNature does not give us northern tights 
or soft, serene effulgnoe of the milky way 
when the thundei 
crash Ita the terrific 
shower—it is lightning that we get then. 
Carousal means something, perhaps it is 
too strong a term, but I shall not unduly 
afflict my soul on that account. 
The columns ol the W H I G have heralded 
in other seasons the wonders of the Mus-
koka in its exhaustless resources of game 
and fish. In these special objects of our 
tour, our success has been unusual, remark-
able, exceeding, in the trite language of a 
simile hitherto unused, all expectation. It 
ia at the expense of great mental anguish 
and sacrifice of feeling that fear at need-
less repetition of such conquests as were 
portrayed so vividly and with such discrim-
inating accuracy a year ago, compels me to 
look beyond these matters nearest my heart 
and sacred to my feelings for less exhilar-
ating themes for composition. 
But there 
are Sampson and Cole, and 
mayhap 
others too who will demand at least a few 
details of our experience in huntiug and 
fishing, our success with rod and rifle. 
They will at least clamor for a "schmell of 
the uiug" if not a "dhrink of the cider." 
We have had luck, the great guardian 
deity and patron divinity of game and fish, 
pan, Iws smiled upon us. We have reveled 
and exulted in the manly vocations of hunt-
ing and flshine as wildly, as extravagantly, 
as rapturously as becomes victors in labo-
rious and distressing triumphs. 
Sampson 
knows how it is, he has stood shoulder to 
shoulder with me amid just such trials as 
these, on this very spot too. I have known 
him to perform a manly part in bringing a 
"buck" to bay, and afterwards acquit him-
self most honoraoly when its jucy sirloins 
graced the Appetizing fare of our mid-day 
repast. It is pleasant to remember that he 
saved our small party of nine wilderness 
sojourners from the perils of threatening 
starvation by the capture of a splendid 
buck at Round Lake, in,Muskoka, four 
years ago this very autumn. I preceded my 
party, (composed of Rev. Dr. Todd and Dr. 
Frank Paddock, of Pittsfield, and Rev. 
Charles Hill of Whitehall) to Muskoka a sin-
gle week. 
I awaited their arrival at Spar-
row Lake. Oh! the overwhelming, heart-
felt triumphs that delighted the halcyon 
days and hours of my solitary camp while 
sojourning at "Sparrow." 
That 
great 
feeding aod spawning 
grcfund of the 
princely muskanonge ! * In a single day the 
troll allnred eighteen of these tenants of 
Sparrow lake, varying in weight from two 
pounds to thirty-five or forty pounds. Up-
on the 18th of October our whole party met 
and proceeded directly north to Trading 
lake via south branch Muskoka river. From 
Muskoka lake to Trading lake are thirty 
miles of river travel. 
Thirty m.iles of 
wading shallows! 
Ihirty miles of tront 
fishing, dipping the "red," "dark red" and 
"partidge wing" hockles, the "black Pal-
mer," "black gnat" and "red ibis" in the 
purling rifts! Thirty miles wherein the appe-
tites of five muscular guides with our party 
of four wilderness tourists have conceded 
the most substantial triumph to the angling 
skill of the Rev. Mr. Hill, Dr. Paddock and 
"Achilles" in an overwhelming, luxurious 
satiety of speckled trout! 
Miles that 
abound in every fur bearing animal of these 
wilderness waters ! Dr. Paddock had a line 
view of a noble beaver contemplating the 
scurvy apparition of our passing fleet upon 
the river bank as we ascended. The Doc-
tor looked at the beaver and the beav*er 
fixed 
his scrutinizing vision 
upon the 
Doctor. 
* 
Terrible suspensa ! 
Fearful and awful 
the responsibility to either of terminating 
the remarkable exhibition ! 
The beaver dissolved the interesting in-
terview by moving deliberately down to-
ward the river where his curiosity was 
quite sated. For a beaver it was a bold act 
—a prodigy of valor! . It being the Doc-
tor's first sight of a live beaver of coursa 
the wrapt spirit of his meditations wander-
ed not away from the object ol hfs profound, 
mysterious admiration to a vile, ill-man-
nered, dirty powdered, lead shotted, brass-
capped fire /.rm, that he held with all a 
surgeon's recklessness in his two hands, 
hitherto unstained v.ith the gore of such 
unbled patients as beaver, bear or wolves. 
We expect on our descent of the stream 
that the beaver will resent our intrusion by 
an attack upon our combined forces. We 
have' already determined upon a resolute 
resistance. 
We have duly considered the 
probabilities of success. " Victory belong-
eth to the vigilant tlm active and the 
brave!" "Let him cornel I repeat it sir, 
let him come!" saith the doctor. 
We are having much rain and terrific 
winds the present week. 
Towering pines 
and massive maples, two, four and often 
six, simultaneously are falling about our 
camp. We have felled many near us to 
ensure our own safety as well as we could 
and yet some days and nights the crashing 
the appalling sound of many gigantic forest 
trees falling and breaking close to our tents 
strikes terror to our v.-ry souls. 
Cowardly, pusillanimous man ! A tem-
pest in the wilderness has sometning in it 
of grandeur and sublimity but it will teach 
poor, dependent 
untutored manhood its 
fears of exposure to danger and want ot 
courage to meet ir. 
I must be excused 
fram resenting when I hear the trees spok-
en of as " grand o!d aentine.s !" We have 
done watching! W e have performed sen-
try duty over those self same " sentinels of 
the forests." 
Aye I and that two from be-
ginning to end ot this October. 
The trees 
have been on a grand old bender through-
out. 
Sentinels indeed I Avaunt, such unmean-
ing platituder !

—The Louisville Journal will not admit

over the lamp 1 She has no right to de-
prive the cow of the immortality won by 
that historic kick ! Mrs. Leery, if you de-
served to be called a citizen of Chicago, 
you would have had your cow photograph-
ed long before the fire was extinguished, 
and would have been selling the pietures 
all this time«t twenty cents apiece." 
T H E 
preparations at the Academy of 
Music in New York exceed in gorgeousness' 
th*e wildest dream of the projectors. At 
that temple of the Music there will be three 
scenic decorations—one hanging down over 
the tent whjch is to enclose the stage and 
one in front of each tier of proscenium 
boxes. The central scene will represent 
the Genius of Russia, clad in blue tunic, 
•fellow robe, trimmed with fur and lined 
with ermine, Turkish shoes and pantaloons, 
and turban-like hat, heavily studded with 
jewels. 
This figure holds a sceptre in Its 
left hand, and with the right clasps the hand 
of the Goddess of American liberty, clad 
i n light blue and partially draped with the 
national colors. The decoration on the 
rightwill represent the Czar Nicholas free-
ing the serfs, while that on the left will 
commemorate the emancipation by Pr.sl-
dent Lincoln. 
The entire stage will be en-
closed with a tent, supported by richly or-
namented columns, each bearing a shield 
of some European power. 
From this pa-
villion a series of three terraces, crowned 
with urns of flowers and cupids holding 
chandeliers, will lead to the gardens, ap-
parently constituting the background. The 
whole will be most brilliantly illumtnated. 
A minature Moorish temple will be erected 
over the three center boxes of the Grand 
Dnke's tier, and over his especial box, be -
tween the interlaced flags or Russia and 
America will be displayed the Imperial 
shield, bearing the double-headed 
eagle 
The foregoing are a few of the delightful 
designs for which the fashionable world is 
indebted to Mr. Bierstaflt's glowing imag-
ination.

be the baseless falsehoods which everybody

W E get the most disagreeaple accounts 
of the famine in Persia. It is said that can-
nibalism is as common among the starving 
inhabitants as pork-eating in New York. 
This is very sad. and shows either a very 
low state of Persian morality or a conspicu-
ous lack of Persian ingenuity. 
They ought 
to manage it as the conscientious Indians 
do. 
In time of famine these gentle crea-
tures never disgrace themselves by feasting

A N EXCHANGE states that a lady resid-
ing in Patterson, Putnam county, received 
through that postoffl.ee, a few weeks ago, a 
small package neatly and securely sealed. 
Upon opeoing it she perceived a box, in 
which, to her utter astonishment, she found 
carefully packed twenty fifty dollar green-
backs, and a sheet of paper, on which was 
written these words only, "accept this gift." 
The happy recipient has always been oblig-
ed to sunoort herself by her own industry, 
has no parents nor home, except through 
the hospitality of relatives. 
There is not 
the least suspicion as to the donor of the 
gift, which has been safely deposited in tbe
