Nobody Realiy Cares If you have anything to grieve you, And fill your heart with fears ; lf poverty bides near you, And your days are dimmed with tears ; if you find with soul despairing No answer to your prayers, Don’t say a word about it, for Nobody really cares.
If health and strength forsake you, And pain and sickness bring
A gloom that clouds the sunshine And shadows everything ;
If you feel that lot so weary But seldom mortal bears,
Don’t say a word about it, for Nobody really cares,
Chis world is fuil of pleasure, And, take it at its best, ‘Tis sadly bored unless you Meet it with smiles and jest ; It yawns o’er want’s complainiag, At sorrow coldly stares, never tell your troubles, for Nobody really cares. Harper's > - <P>
Mysterious Mistassini.

CONTRADICTORY REPORTS OF THE EX- TENT OF THE INLAND SEA. News has reached Quebec of the
arrival of a special courier at Lake St. Jobn with the official report of Mr. Low, the officer now in charge ot the Mistassini exploring and surveying expedition to his departmental head, Professor Selwyn of the geological survey, conveyed the intelligence that when this courier left, Mr. Low was on the point of starting for Rubert’s house, on James Bay, having completed, it is alleged, his survey of the great lake whose real size has so long being sur rounded in mystery. It is said to have leaked out, too, that in this report Mr. Low claims to have established that the extreme length of Great Mistassini is only 120 miles and its average breadth only 20. If the report on this head be correct it is safe to say-that the accuracy of Mr. Low’s claim will be at once challenged, conflicting as it does so strangely with the positive statement of Mr. Frank Bignell that he navigated the lake last year for 120 miles, and even then had not reached what might be termed the body of the lake, as it
evidently went on widening, and he could see nothing before him but sky
and water, as well as with the equally emphatic assertion of a former factor of the Hudson’s Bay company at Mis- tassini Post, an intelligent and reliable Scotchman, who affirms that he navi- gated it for 150 miles and then saw nothing to warranthim in the beiiet that he was nearing the end but rather thecontrary. In fact it said that everyone competent to form anything like an authoritative opinion on the subject ridicules the idea that Mr. Low saw the end of Great Mistassini. The general opinion is that he has mistaken the bottom of someone of the many deep bays with which Mistassini’s coast line is indented for the real extremity of that great sheet of water, and tbis view is to some extent confirmed by the absurd shortness of the time within which he seems to claim to have com- pleted his survey, judging from the date when the ice was reported to have broked up last spring and the date when the messenger must have left Mistassini for Lake St. John.

A New Departure in Hanging.
The new Ohio law governing execu- tions is likely to attract general atten- tion throughout the country. Its main purpose is to prevent the infliction of the death penalty from being made the occasion of a_ disereditable public exhibition. Ic provides that every person sentenced to death in any coanty of the State shall be hanged in the Penitentiary at Columbus. A perma- nent gallows and an enclosure are to be maintained within the prison. The most novel feature of the law ia the requirement that the execution shall
be “before the hour of sunrise.” The hanging is under the direction of the warden and Board of Managers of the
Pevitentiary, the sheriff of the county in which the criminal was sentenced 1s the executor. The latter is allowed for his services a hundred dollars ‘and the same fees as are paid in other ‘felony Che only persons permitted to be present as witnesses at the execution are :—First, the warden, chaplain and Board of Managers of the Penitentiary; second, the clergyman attending the prisoner and three persons designated by the prisoner; third, besides the executioner, five sheriffs specified by the warden ; fourth, the coroner of the county in which tke prisoner was tried ; fifth, “a reporter for each cne
cases,
of the two leading newspapers of opposite polities published in said
county that the sheriff thereof may designate.” It is further provided that the dead body of the person hanged shall be returned at public expense to his friends on their written request. The provision of this law which is in- tended to banish the gallows from public view by limiting the spectators to a very Anall number may weil be copied in other States and counties.

AYER’S Cherry Pectoral.
No other complaints are so insidious in their attack as those affecting the throat and lungs: none so trifled with by the majority of sutfer- ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting perhaps from a trifling or unconscious ex- posure, is often but the beginning of a fatal sickness. AYER’S CHERRY PECTORAL hag well proven its efficacy in a forty years’ fight with throat and lung diseases, and should be taken in all cases without delay,
A Terrible Cough Cured.
* Tn 1857 I took a severe cold, which affected my lungs. I had a terrible cough, and passed night after night without sleep. The doctors gave me up. 1 tried AYER’S CHERRY PEC- TORAL, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and“ afforded me the rest necessary for the recovery of my strength. By the continued use of the PECTORAL a perma- nent cure was effected. I am now 62 years old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your CHERRY PECTORAL saved me.

Croup.—A Mother’s Tribute.
“ While in the country last winter my little boy, three years old, was taken i}) with croup; it seemed as if he would die from strangu- lation. One of the family suggested the use of AYER’S CAERRY PECTORAL, a bottle of which was always kept in the house. This was tried in small and frequent doses, and to our delight in jess than half an hour the little patient was breathing easily. The doc tor said that the CHERRY PrcTroRAL had saved my darling’s life. Can you wonder at our gratitude? Sincerely yours,
Mrs, EMMA GEDNEY.’*

“I cannot say enough in praise of AYER’S CHERRY PectroralL, believing as I do that but for its use I should long since have died from lung troubles. >. BRAGDON.”
Palestine, ‘Texas, April 22, 1882.
No case of an affection of the throat or lungs exists which cannot be greatly relieved by the use of AvER’s CHERRY PECTORAL, and it will always cure when the disease ig not already beyond the control of medicine.”

New and Original Departure in Goal Cooking Stoves ~- COMBINING
DURABILITY, HEAT AND RCONOMY.
This Cut represents my Patent Fire
as it appears while being cleaned, or when a new tining is being replaced,
Hing Cooking Stove, with the even, end and lining partially drawn out,
fYVHE above Stove | imvented and patented in 1876, and at the present time HUN-
DREDS ARE IN USE, giving perfect satisfaction. A large number have been in contant use for eight years, and the repairs have been very trifling, in many instances none have been required. This valuable experience should be sufficient evidence of their durability, which is accounted for in the following :—It has, instead of a Lined Fire Box, two heavy Currugated Cylinders, which obviate the expense connected with all Square Cooking Stoves of being compelled to renew Linings and Grates, at least once or twice every year, The heat being radia'ed from the Oylin- ders to the floor, where most needed, overcomes a serious objection to all kinds of ordinary Coal Cooking Stoves. The Cylinders are situated directly under the cover holes, and a fire may be made in one or both, thus adapting it for use cither in winter or summer, with equal satietaction, besides effecting a great saving to fnel. I have algo attached the PATENT TELESCOPIS OVEN to all my Elevated Oven Wood Stoves, such as the Waterloo, Niagara, Star, &c , causing the thousands using them to exclaim—\iy Stoves are worth TEN DOLLARS MORE than the same kind made by other foundries. The trade and retail purchasers will please bear in mind the fact that although a great advantage is Claimed for my own Oven above all others, they cost no more, and being the sole manufacturer and patentee, no other fcundry can supply. En. quire for Fawcett’s Patent Telescope Oven, and it your dealer has none on hand send direct to the Sackville Stove Foundry.
I am adding several new and handsome Patterns this season, which, with my former large variety of One Hundred Different Patterns and Sizes of Cooking, Parlor, Office and Hali Stoves, also Farmers Boilers, Hollowware, Ploughs, Stove Pipes and Tinware, com- prise the most compete assortment offered by any manufacturer in the Lower Provinces,
Terms and prices will be found as favorable as can be obtained elsewhere,
