They may be worth their study, and repay perusal in enlightening them upon a subject of practical utility. The History of the Essence's Discovery.

The Australian anti-fever tree- that is the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus— has now spread its tame throughout the world, but there are many who do not properly estimate its splendid qualities. It has been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud the face of the Colony, contain about live hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, that is the mortal foe 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 our people. This fact is now recognised by all scienti-ts in the world Its Claim as a Curative. It has now become the fashion with the invent'is of discoveries of r* medal agents to claim something little short of infallibi ily and universabibty of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Sander and Sons did nothing of the sort. They have continence that their essence possesses many virtues ; but the full extent of these they do not know yet. They are now collecting data, and they are most careful and searching in performing this. It is quite sure then, that th ir eucaiypti essence can fairly assert itself to be a grand panacea fur many of the ills that flesh is heir to. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fever, nothing will protect hotter against contagion than a few drops of the essence ponied in the p. Ira of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or spiinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a length of time Inwardly used, take three or four drops in half a tumkier of water. The essence effects a most surprising change of the whole consdtuticn. correcting indigestion, and creat iuc a heal hv appetite. Fur Chi dreu 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, ' eing an etherie essence, evaporate, and ti;l the room with the purifying vapor. Are you obliged to Travel! A few drops occasionally rubbed on the body, will pro tent against any contagion you may be exposed to, in coining di’ect wii hj sick persons, or in sleeping in ihe same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. AH Hotelkeepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in drawers where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the tune cs-en-tial essence. It produces no spots whateve , as every particle of it evaporates, ami nothing n miina In shoit, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure rssential eucalypti essence ought to he the one you have recourse to, and no family ought to he without it. For all Wounds, Cuts, Burns, Scoldings, Fleers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrai ped round the suffering 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. In case of Colds, moisten the nostrils with a few drops and inhale the vapour, an you will feci immediate relief, and entire riddance of the beat. In all easeswhere the Lungs may he Affected, the above-mentioned proee-s, continually repeated, will be the best that can be advised In cases of Rheumatism , a mixture of one nart ot the pure essential eucalypti essence will three parts of spirits of wine, wed rubbed in the suffeiing part, has acted better than any oh r remedy.

In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may tie applied to tlie part affected. In severe cases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may he applied on the external nar’ of the face. In cases of Inflammation of the. Eyes, apply the pure essence to the outside of the eyelids. Headache, and Rheumatic Pains in the Head arc positively cured and removed by nihldug the essence on the affected parts. For many cases of Severe Bruises the essence has proved the best remedy. No other essence is genuine except, that in the vials bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark Retail Agents : Henry Hotop, Chemist, Clyde. Wm. Forrest, Tobacconist, Alexandra.
