posed by somc that it be formally celebrat-
ed here,—hy others that, while highly
proper, it would be better to defer any dc-
monstration till 1876, the Centennial year,
-when with the millions assembled at Phila-

the event can have special significance and
be dealt with with feelings of something
_ akin to true patriotism. in aid of a Cen-
tennial Celebration many of those who
would now be slow to put their hands in
their pockets and withdraw the same with
a liberal contribution, would in 1876, have
no excuse for excusing themselves on the
ground can’t afi‘ord it," but, conscious of the
fact that the centennial would never occur
again in their day and generation, would
do the handsome thing and let the outside
world know that Westport is not unmind--
ful of what pertains to her highest interests.
To be sure we have no “lien" Nichols to
get up a grand procession with music din-
ner, and brilliant fireworks; no “Jim"
Jauuecy to run opposition and achieve rc-
nown ; no Seudder Bradley to show his dis—
gust at the whole thing by mowing grass
in the rain while the procession is moving;
no Wm II. Richards to read the Immortal
Declaration; no “Tom" Filds to deliver an
oration, and no Uncle Daniel Nash, who
lived six years before the event in question,
to appear in person and tell us all about it
from aetttal observation, anti, perchance
there could be no “’I‘in"-shop debate the
night previous as to the propriety of ad-
mitting the public to a certain church, and
possibly there might not be a descriptive
pamphlet printed after the thing is over.
But we could call out our two lire compa
ales and a Hook & Ladder for a procession,
_our Cornet ll-tnd for music, and the corn,
wine, and oil which we have been saving
for an hundred years would go far towards
securing a collation. We c )uld get money
for more titan one hundred rounds of cart-
ridges, and the writer bets his bottom dol-
lar that George Hendrick, on a mere hint,
would come back to fire the old cannon as
of yore on “The Diggins.” Then, the three
citizens aged over 00 years each,yet linger-
ing with us, could be home to the scene of
our festivities, and while they might not go
back in memory to 1776, cottld yet console
us with a word or two about 1787 and the

the damages to the Alden property would
not fall short of $8,000. As the widening

those who do not. scruple to say that the
town should rise in a body and oppose it.

Offensive Breath.
There is nothing more disgusting and an-
noying than to be brought into contact with
any one with an ofl‘en‘sivc breath. To per-
sons so afliicted the mortification is great, as
they soon begin to find howdhosc with
whom they are brought into contact avoid
coming any closer to them than they are ac-
tually compelled to; but. yet by far greater
is the annoyance. I might say, with truth,
punishmentinflieted on the one eompelrd
to inhale it. Numerous are the instances in
which it isolates persons from the society of
others, causes coolness among friends. hus-
band and wife, and breaks off many an en-
gagement.
Many laboring under such an atiiiction
might not be able to comprehend why they
should be so intolerable, bttt could they
smell themselves as they really are, they
would no longer wonder, for-it must be con-
ceded that of all odors there is none tnore
revolting and nauseating than that from a~
putrid breath. IllaVe, in innumerable in-'
stances, had a wife or husband, or father or
mother say. “ Doctor, if you can only rc-
move the offensive smell from—whomever.
it may have been—I shall be perfectly satis-
fied, for it nauseates me so when Ican’t
avoid inhaling it, .that it is as much as I
can. do to prevent vomiting."
Persons so ,affectcd are generally particu-
larly sensitive on the subject, and their
friends being equally sensitive about speak-
ing to them of it, consequently there are few
who know how really revolting they are.
And there are many who are affected and
yet. are not cognihant of the fact, for the
same reason that. no one feels like speaking
to them ofit. Imagine how great an insult
it would be felt for any one to say to anoth-
er,“ Please, when you speak, to turn your
face away, so that I wont get the benefit of
your breath, for it stinks so.”
In almost all cases of Catarrh the breath
becomes sooner or later affected, as the dis-
ease progresses, from the fact that the Ca-
tarrhal Mucous itself has an offensive odor.
in addition to winch, the breath passing
over the dicased mucous surface becomes
impregnated with the fctor of thctuorbid
secretions of the nose and throat.
When the discharge burdens and adheres
in the shape of scabs to'thc Mucuous Mem-
brane, it becomes putrid and exhnles a
stench overpowering, so much so as to
sometimes impregnate the atmosphere of
a whole room. This is also the case when
there is ulceration of the nasal bones, or
when the glands imbedded in the mucous
membrane are involved. .
Many have been, and are, the devices re-
sorted to, to counteract the odor, bttt all
without avail. Perfuming the person not '
only utterly fails, but tends, if anything, to
make the stench more overpowering and
uncndurablc. There is only one way to get
rid of it, and that is to get rid of the disease.
Cause and effect in no instance more than
this show how they must be kept sight of,
for as long as the eause,—-that which produ-
ces the putrid odor—remains, so long must
there be the putrid odor.
Supposing a dead animal to have remain-
ed long enough in the street to have become
putrid , would any man who would attempt
o perfume it to counteract the smell, be con-
sidered sane? Could the atmosphere be pttre
as long as the animal—the cause of the im-
purity—remained? Certainly not. Remove
the animal and see how soon the air will
again become pttre. So with an offensive
breath, remove the canse—Catarrh—and it .
will soon be found how soon thcbreath will
becomepure.
lETIER No.5.
Effect of Catarrb on the
Sense of Smell.
Q
The sense of smell, or means by which we
become cognizant ot‘odors, ls through the
olfactory nerve—a nerve which proceeds
from the brain through a small fissure at the
base of the cranium and extends in fila.
ments or threads over the upper portion of
the pituatory membrane; consequently, any
(lliseases affecting the nasal cavities affects it
a so.
It will therefore be seen why the impair-
ment and suspension of smell during a
severe cold is so frequent, and when the in-
flammation of the pituatry membrane be-
comes more chronic. as in Catarrh, a. simi-
larleature presents itself; or if slightly im-
paired at first, gradually beomes more so as
the, disease increases. It? cases of severe

0. 1?, Clark, formerly a Californian miner, 3
later an efficient warden, and. now a pros-

gold in Danbury. For several years he has
been prospecting. Three years ago, on the
Scott estate, from surface rock, in which
that neighborhood abounds, he had an as-
say made, showing about eight ounces of
silver to the ton of rock.

of silver to the ton. There is some gold.but

silver. 80 tar, but little work has been done

will handsomely pay the working; and he

ity of the most nauseous odors is lost, and
the most. pungent essences fail toproduec
he slightest effect. I have seen cases where
the sense of smell was so entirely gone that
onions could be put under their noses and
if blindfolded it' would be impossible for
them to tell what it was.
To be deprived of the loss of smell it is
not neeesary to comment on, for that, like
any other loss, is too well understood; but
this much can be said, that while it is not as
great a misfortune as that of speech, hearing
r sight, yet it is, nevertheless, one of great
importance, as it not only curtails our enjoy:
ment in a great measurc,but leads to (ion-
sequences detrimental to health. While
there are many odors that those whose sense
I smell is not impaired may wish thetr ol-
factory nerves were impervious to, yet it
must be acknowledged a great privation not
to be able to enjoy the delicious fragrance
of fiOWers—Nature s perfumes. I may here
relate an instance, not irrelevant to the case,
but illustrative of‘ how severe a privation is
the loss of smell. ,Among my patients was a
lady, a great sufferer from 'Catarrh, one of-
tbe effects of- wlllfill was the loss ' of the
sense of smell. On one of my visits to her
residence,1 was told by the servant that
ushered me in, that she was in the garden—
an occupation she tool; great leasure in,
Being a charming spring day. lpwould not
have her interrupte .. but proceeded to the
garden, Where I found her busy, with the as-
sistance of the gardener, trailing the tendrils
of some of the more delicate plants. Being
myself passionately fond of flowers, I was
enchanted. It was a splendid garden, full
of the choicest flowers—:bcautiful to the eye‘
and exotic to the smell. After a few cursory
remarks, I observed to her that were it not
for proof positive to the contrary I might
imagine myself in fairy land. “Yes, very
beautiful the flowers are,” she replied. “But
not half so beautiful," said I,“ as they are
fragrant—the {very atmosphere is redolent
with their perfume.” With-a saddened ex-
pression she turned to me,and said, in man-
ner which I have never forgotten, “You for-
get that I cannot smell; and,” continued she,
“ frequently have I_ almost determined to
give up this, to me great pleasure, as half 'of
it is lost in not being able to enjoy their
fragrance. They .are to me, as children

were it the most obnoxious odor." The
sense of smell has another and more direct
duty, though, this; it is given as a hard to
the air passages that we'may avoi ”the in:
haltion of such odors as may be injurious,
and to the detection of the improper quali-
ties of food. To iilustrate this latter remark,
let any one take the most aromatic sub-
stance in the mouth, observing at the same
time to close the nostrils tight, and they
will find, as long as they keep them closed,
they will not have the slightest appreciation
of its odor or flavor, but the instant the nos-
trils are at libcrt they will get the flavor

me an instance of his having visited a friend
who had been poisoning rats; the rats hav-
ing died in their holes filled the house with
a terrible eflluvia. The smell was so natt-
