If you are ner- vous, irritable or indisposed, do not rush off to the apothecary and swill yourself with quack medicine. Go quietly and calmly to Gay's Stall, Market, House and procure a sup- ply of celery for winter use; and you will have food and medicine combined. It nour- ishes aud stimulates the brain, strengthens and quiets the nerves, and’ has a- beneficial effect upon the whole system. Any honest physician, not too fond of. his fees, will tell you the same. For the benefit of those who are not partial to celery raw, we give a recipe below for stewing it, which tends to make it even more agreeable than any oyster stew,und similar as follows,—Cut in--small pieces two or three stalks of celery, (the unblanched green parts are as good as the white for ‘his purpose) boil in water until tender, then add milk, butter, pepper and salt to. suit the taste, as for oyster stew. serve hot with oyster crackers. nov 23 i > DrATH OF AN IsLANDER.—Mr, John Me- Lellan, architect, who died at Sydney, C.

Then he returned toe his native Island, where fdr fifteen years without inter- mission he worked for Bishop McIntyre, dur- ing which time he built or fivished some of the finest churches in the diocese of Charlotte- town. Among others the churches of Lot 11 and St. Andrew's were built by Mr. McLellan; 80, too, were St. Joseph’s Convent, Oharlotte- town, and many other buildings of the same kind in different parts of the Island.
