They may he 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 fame 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 five 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 inventors of discoveries of remedial agents to claim something little short ofinfallibi 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 virtues ; but the full extent of these they do not know yet. They are now collecting data, I ami they are most careful and searching in ] performing this. It is quite sure then, that their 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 any case of Fever, j nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in 1 the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or sprinkled over i the clothes. The perfume will be noticed : for a length of time. I Jinvardly used, take three or four drops in ' half a tumbler of water. Tire essertce effects a most surprising change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and creat iug a healthy appetite. Fur Children Attending Schools, the same mode may he adopted. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, doing an ethcric essertce, evaporate, and till the room with the purifying vapor. Arc you obliged to Travel! A few drops occasionally rubbed on the body, will protect against arty contagion you may be exposed to, in corning 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 essential essence. It produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing nmains j In short, where a disinfectant is needed, j the pure essential eucalypti essence ought to ] be the one you have recourse to, and no j family on lit to be wrtbout it. For all 1 founds. Cuts, Burns, Scoldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of 1 linen wrapped round the sulfering part, and | moistened with a few 'lmps of the eucalypti essence, will stop all pain, and effect a I speedy cure. In cases where a piece of linen j cannot be applied, the moistening of the suffering part with the pure essence will do as well. In ease of Colds, moisten tbe nostrils with a few drops and inhale the vapour, and you will feel immediate relief, and entire riddance of the heat. In all cases where the Lungs may be Affected, tlie above-mentioned process, continually repeated, will be the best that can he advised. In cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence with three parts of spirits of wine, we 1 rubbed in the suffering part, has acted hector than any other remedy. In all cases of Jnjlammation, the essence may he applied to the part affected. In severe eases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may be applied on the external part of the face.
