mary :—" Lopez, the Paraguayan tyrant, is a man

weighing nearly 300 pounds, and not over five feet

five inches higid.

The Mr. Bliss who was taken

from Mr. 1% ashburn's side is a native of Cattarau-

gus county, New York. He is exceedingly accom-
..

plished in learning and the languages, and was found

by Mr. W. editing a paper for Lopez and writing
a book on Paraguay. Mr. Washburn says that our
entire trouble arose from Lopez intercepting and
reading his despatches, wherein the opinion was ex-
pressed that Paraguay was in a desperate condi-
tion and Lopez was a despot. Mr. Washburn had
very little ilea that he should get away with his
life. Washburn himself is a square, solid, rather
short man, with a marked face, short, dark hair,
an agreeable manner, and the intelligence of an ob-

server and a journalist. Ho proposes to write a

Agazine article concerning the state of affairs on

,he La Plate."

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Henceforth no one will doubt the valuable
properties of Du Barry's health-restoring Revalenta Arabica
Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings
it has already received from Invalids whose position had been
deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope,
whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of
unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the " Gazette du
31151," July 25th :—" Rome, July 21,1866. - The health of the Holy
Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other reme-
dies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta
Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal.
It has produced a surprisingly beneficial effect on his health, and
his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly." We
extract a few out of more than 68,000 cures:--Cure No. 58,216, of
the Marchioness de Brehan, of seven years' liver complaint
wasting away, debility, nervousness, with a nervous palpitation,
all over, bad digestion, constant sleeplessness, and the most in-
tolerable nervous agitation. Cure No 1.771 ; Lord Stuart de
Decies, Lord-Lieutenant of Waterford, of many years' dyspeps:a.
No. 40,832: "Fifty years indescribable agony from dyspepsia,
nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency, spasms,
sickness, an.l vomiting —Maria July." Cure No. 46,270: Mr.
James Roberts, of Frimley, Surrey, of 30 years' diseased lungs,
spitting of blood, liver derangement, and pariial deafness. Im-
portant Caution—Beware of the many unsavoury and more than
sloppy imitations to which, without authority, Baron Liebig's
name is most audaciously attached.
