The Scotohman's advice to his son was, " Sandy, when ye're no daein' neethin' be steckin' in a tree, it will be growin' when ye'ro aleepin'." Profiting by this sage advice we take advantage of a lull in the tornado of, wandering aud sight seeing in which we tind ourselves if not to furnish you with a tree, to pick up for you a few sticks with which your typos may amuse themselves ; as for your readers, you will be expected to run all risks. The amusement of travelling by rail is never very violent, but if there is any time when such travelling is oppressive it is during the night, when prevented by the dim light from enjbyiug a read, also from studying the scenery of the land through whioh one may be passing, one is abut up to the very inte- resting employment of studying the harmony of voices proceeding from the eleeping passen- gers, and the beautiful lines which faces ea - some in a state of railway car repose. But this unhealthy state of affaire, we are thankful to gay, is often broken by a gleam of pare delight, and we were fortunate in that our lines fell in pleasant places, during. our tiret night's journey towards the west. There was on board one genius upon whom you will pardon tis for dwelling. He was an old gen tleman, who bad Been 65 Christmases, was . over six. feet high, as straight as a rail, he had served 35 years in the British army. haviue been in the Home Guards, had been but a tow mouths in this country, and was on his way to Verdon, Manitoba, to see his eon. - It was a moat interesting thing to see this all but hairless and toothless old man jump around, sing and crack jokes with all the fire and vim of a youth of 20 summers. The old gentleman ,had once been on the stage in London, and seemed to be filled with drama and comedy to the brim, and allowed it to flow reit without restraint, except when an occasional poke in the ribs from his guid wife made him subside for a short time. And the man appbared to be philosophical in his antics, telling us in one of his quiet momenta that he had been Faced mach poetise in medicine by keeping up his boyish tricks. When asked if he liked this country better than Eugland, he said that he wtudtlu't live England, again, on any consideration, that the—Ornate was too snit and foegy. He said that, owing to hie hair being short and his teeth curly, the nasty fog got in his throat and stayed there,. which gave him asthma, but he had been in-Muttb better health since coming to this country. When light returned we d ourselves surrounded by the prairie lands o ' 'chigan, which was not relieved by anything • ill, mention until we reached Chicago, an im- mense pile of brink, stone and mortar, with a never ending stream of men, women, ugly boys, girls, horses, dogs and dudes, the latter being very prevalent and dangerous. We only had time to take a run down Canal street to Madison street, along the same to Clark street, and back to the Chicago, Mil- waukee & St. Pani 11. R. One of the strongest impressions we gather- ed from our observations in the great city is that there trade and commerce have gone mad, that tbe people aro neither happy nor contented, and that they have sacrificed these and are daily sacrificing them to mane. mon. Not content with groat stores, the sidewalks are being invaded by vendors of goods, and passers-by are button-ltoledeby the eager merchants. We can see banging over the city the curse that surely -awaits those who hasten to be rich. Our journey from Chicago is tjirongh a pleasant country, rising gradually from tbe lake, the land ap- pearing to be well tilled, and the farmers to be in very comfortable circumstances. It' was noticeable that there is a large acreage; sown with fall wheat, which appealed to be in excellent shape. .After reaching \lilwau- kee, celebrated for lager beer, and the batt boy and his pa, We strike a country beautiful and pictureegtie.. There stands, just outside of the city, a very pleasant looking mansion surrounded by parks, gravel walks and gar- dens—the soldier's home. It was at ouce sad and inspiring to see the soldiers in their uniform, one minus an arm, another a leg, and so on, crippled in every conceivable way for their country, cared for in such a inagnili• cent manner by the people. '('here are at the home 500 soldiers. A few miles out of Mil- ' waukee we pass a most picturesque scene, . known by the euphoneons name of the Ocou- omewoc Lakes, in the fore ground a well or-• dered building, with grounds Laid out with great taste, beyond lay a chain of lakes of clear blue water, and beyond that the horizon line is broken by,gentle eminences, whose brows and tops are clad with clumps of trees, the whole making a sight far more than pleas. ing, and a great relief, after the eye bad boon. resting so long upon the tame, flat land further east. We struck St. Paul, the rival of Chicago. at 7.20 a.m., a few impressions of which we will reserve for our next. THE'BOY3 ABSOAD. The Editor's Tribune. Theron 1'. Keator, Editor of Ft.

There are children who are truly objects of pity. They seem almost bloodless, Their cheeks are thin and pinched ; their eyes are hollow;, and their shin is tightly drawn over their foreheads.. There is nothing hearty about them. They do not enjoy their lives, They are suffering from the debility that leads to marasmus, Poor things ! Do a good deed for the pale, poor; puny, •ppal- lid obild. Hand its mother a bottle of The Shaker Blood Syrup. Here is lifeeven, for the most delicate, the most debilitated ; even for, the child almost given up for dead. Pure blood is what the -child needs, to bring it up: The little digestive apparatus will recover. The pale cheeks will fill out.
