Correspondence Of the Hcrald.l

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3, 1874.
There has been another fight here between
couple Of reporters. The duel between them has
been suppressed, believe, by the magistrates.
What pity why not permit them to rid society
of troublel
There is no other news Of importance this Morn
ing, and feel too melancholy the degeneracy Of
the age to enter upon some matters of importance
which am preparing for you With Gods aid
shall try to pluck up some spirit. This is awful
ly wicked world, and begin to think that the
devil is not SO bad fellow he is reported to be.
In fact, don't think that Satan has been hereto
fore correctly reported in act or speech.
The Shriver and Weller affair came up this
morning again IN the House-upon the so said false
statement Of the correspondent of the Boston atlas
in his account of that affair. There was much ex-
element, and there will be more before there is
less.
Senate does not sit to-day-ia fact, / think the
Senate would do well to run away--clear out from
this city. Virtue here is "unkimmonly' scarce
and high-priced. In fact, we have not sufficient
supply-small potatoes are plenty.

To THE EDITOR OF THE n Y. HERALD

No person can question the extraordinary fell
ctousness Of the quotation wherewith one Of the
counsel for the defence concluded his appeal to the
Jury. in the recent case of Amelia Norman and it
is with great diffidence that suggest that its ap-
plicabllity might, perhaps, have been little I'M
proved by trhing alteration in the last verse.
To read thus -
When lovely woman stoops to folly,
And finds too late that men betray,
What charm can sooth her melancholy
What art wash her guilt away
The only way her guilt to cover,
(Since criminal laws wont nab hm)
To give repentance to her lover,
And reach his bosom-is to stab him.
Perhaps this alteration, too, may have some
effect in stimulating our Legislators 10 action upon
the numerous petitions in regard to RIGHTEOUSNESS,
which now cover their tables. Yours, B.

WORMS! woRn1s.! WORMS II!

Of all diseases to which children are exposed,
none are so fatal to- them as worms. Unfortunately
children are seldom free from them, and as they
initiate the symptoms of almost every other com
plant, they often produce alarming effects withoat
being suspected" Worms are not only a cause of
disease themselves but by their irritation aggavate
all other diseases, wandering from one part Of the
body to another, winding themselves into large balls
and obstructng the bowels and frequently the throat
causing commissions, and too often death The best
remedy ever yet known is gE4 s5y.rau d.

manner their hearing when they least expect it, by

pain of conversng in loud tone, without pleasure,
Of being neglected and Stunned, to avoid that dis
tress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and
his hearers How sacred duty, therefore, il is
that we use all necessary means to remove such an
affection, and enjoy the social qualities implanted in
our natures! This EAR OIL has the effect so TO re-
lieve the tension and bring into the natural action
of the parts to restore the hearing when lost or
