The Australian anti-fever tree- that is the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus— has now spread its fame tlnoughoul the world, I>uc there are many who do not properly estimate its splemli I (jnalities. It has been si (mated that the Australian blue gums, wbic hj stud the face of the Colony, contain about live Immsred million gallons of pure volatie 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 scientists in the world

Its Claim as a Curative. It has now become the fashion with the inventors of discoveries of remedial amenta to claim something little short of infallibi ity and universability of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Sander and Sons did nothing of the sort. They have confidence that their essence possesses many virtue* ; but the full extent of these 'hey 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 eucalypti esscn'-e can fairly as-ert itself to be a grand panacea for many of the ills that Hush is heir to. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fecer, nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm 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 tumb er of water. The essence s fleets a most surprising change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and meat injg a healhv appetite. For (’hi dre.n Attending Schools, the same mode may be adopted. In Oases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, i eing 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 pro tent against any contagion you may be exposed to, in coming direct with sick persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. All Hotelkeepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in drawers where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure es-en-tial essence. It produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing v-miins In shoit, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure essential eucalypti essence ought to be the one you have recourse to, aud no family might to be without it. For ad Wounds, Cuts, Burns, Scaldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrapped 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 fetd immediate relief, and entire riddanee of the heat. In all casts where the Lungs may he Aflacled, the above-mentioned prove s, continually repeated, will be the best that ean he ad vi sci I In cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence wi hj three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, has acted better than any o hi r remedy. In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may he applieo to the pa t allvcted. In serene cases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pme essence may be applied on the external par of tin' face.
