They may be worth their study, and repay perusal in en--lin burning them upon a subject of practical utility. The History of the Essence's Discovery. The Australian- anti-fever tree- tint is the bine gum, or eucalyptus globulus- has now spread its fame Unoughoiit the world, but there are many who d>> not properly estimate its splendid cpialities. It has been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud the fare of the Cnhny, contain about live hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, that is tlie mortal f..e of fever and ague. Every day in the year the forests of the colony are giving out and exhaling in the form of vapour, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-giving essence to onr people. This fact is now recognised by all scientists in the world Its Claim as a Curative. It has now become the fashion with the inventors of discoveries of remedial agents to claim something little short of infallihi ity and universability of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Sander and Hons did nothing of the sort. They have confidence that their essence possesses many virtue* ; but the full extent of these they do not. know yet. They are now collecting data, and they arc most careful and searching in performing Ibis. It is quite sure then, that tie ir eucalypti essence can fairly assert itself to he a grand panacea for many of the ills that flesh is heir to. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or an;/ case of Fever, nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and nibbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or spiinkled over tlie clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a length of time. ■ Inwardly used, take three or four drops in halt a tumbler of water. The essence Alerts a most surprising change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and creat ing a healthy appetite. Fur Chi dren Attending Schools, the same mode may be adopted. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, being an etheric essence, evaporate, and till the room with the purifying vapor. Are you obliged to Travel! A few drops occasionally rubbed on the body, will protect against any contagion you may lie exposed to, in coining direct with sick persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. All Holt'keepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in diawers where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure essential essence. It produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing remains. In short, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure essential eucalypti essence ought to he the one you have recourse to, and no family might to he without it. For ad Wounds, Cals, Barns, Scoldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrapped round the sutfering part, and moistened with a few drops of the eucalypti essence, will stop all pain, and effect a speedy cure. In cases where a piece of linen cannot be applied, the moistening of the suffering part with the pure essence will do as well. la case of Coils, moisten the nostrils with a few drops and inhale the- vapour, and you will reel immediate relief, and entire riddance of the beat. In all cases where the Langs may he Affected, the above-mentioned process, continually repeated, will be the best that can be advised. In. cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence wbh three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, has acted better than any other remedy. In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may be applied to the part affected. In severe cases of Toothache, of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may be applied on the external part of the face. In cases if Inflammation of the Furs, apply the pure essence to tlie outside of the eyelids. Ileadachc, and Rheumatic Fains in the Head arc positively cured and removed by rubbing tlie essence on (he affected parts. Formally cases of Seirre Cruises the cssenoc has proved the best remedy.
