Buchanan has done this unconsciously, bat if he did it designedly it was very ingenious, although very unfair. It was not giving Mr Insersoll any chance at all. Should Mr Inge'rsoll, after readiDc Mr Buchanan's book, adopt Mr Buchanan's views regarding the interpretation of the Scriptures, and also see himself as Mr Buchanan sees him, he will doubtless feel obliged to go up to the penitent form of the Salvation Army, and confess that he sees himself a miserable sinner—thanks to Mr John Buchanan.—l am, &c, GEOBGE VIDATi. P.S.—According to the "Westminster Review the shadow going back on the dial of Hezekiah was produced by a double mock sun—a well known phenomenon. Mr Buchanan says that the same explanation at he has given in regard to the sun stand ing still—namely, rarefaction of the atmos pberc—is admissible in the case of Heze* kiah. When theological scholars differ, who can set them right ? Meanwhile, the public can either follow the lead in this matter of the editor of the Westminster Review, Mr Ingersoll, or Mr Buchanan.

The Bad and Worthless are never imitated pr counterfeited. This is especially tr-ue of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, beat and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations iproiaLgb and began to steal the notices in wbichlp» press and the people of the country had efp"resßed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to ÜBe tbeir stuff instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B. Many .others started nostrums put up in similar style £o H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word " Hop " or " Hops " were used in away to induce people to believe they were the same aa Bop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no mitter what tbeir style or name is, and especially those with the word "Hop" or "Hops" in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Bewbre of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of preen Hops on the white label, and Dr Soule's name blown in theglasß. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitatioDß or counterfeits. Oatabbh of the Biaedbe.—Stinging irritation, iDflummation, all Kidney and Biroilar Complaints, cured by " Bucbu-paiba." —Moses,* Moss and Co. , Sydney, General Agents.
