MIR. MAYO'S ELIGIBILITY.

The Enquirer contends that Mr.. Robert A.
Mayo is eligible, notwithstanding his Tobacco con-
tract, on the ground that what the Government
pays him is not an emolun,em but ''quid pro
ouo." Is not the mail contractors emolument
likewise mere "quid pro quo!" He undertakes
that the mails shall be delivered at certain times
and places, and this is but quid for which he gets
his quo. Mr.. Mayo undertakes that a certain
amount of Tobacco shall be delivered at certain
times and places, and if this is more qatid than
the mail contractors, it is only in punning sense
Qor which the Enquirer must be Credited and we
believe the courts take no cognizance of puns.
If the reason of the law be remembered, it will
be evident that Mr.. Mayo's case is as directly
within the prohibition as that of the mail contrac-
tor. That reason is, that persons who are bound
by considerations of personal interest to the Fe-
deral Government, are not in fit condition OF
mind properly to serve the State in its indepen-
dent sovereignty. The law u.s. therefore, founded
in the doctrine of States Rights. Any one who
receives regular stipulated compensation from
the Federal Government is held by our law to be
too much allied to that Government to perform the
duties of State Offices with impartiality. No Ian
guage can be broader than that of the New Code
which declares that no person shall be capable o.
holding any State post, "who receives, an an,
| aoay, from the United States any emollnsea uhat.

WHAT THE CANADIANS THINK OF WIS
TARS BALSAM

From the Montreal Transcript July 22d, ls4s.
We think it but due to DR.. Wistar that we should
add our testimony to others as to the extra
ordinary merits of his medicine certain cures particu-
ary where the patient has complained of pain in the
side, orin cases of an asthmatical character
We are personally acquainted with many persons
who have experienced immense relief from the use Of
this medicine, when labourng under the diseases above
mentioned; and as in the changeable climate of Cana
Ola these diseases are more than usually common any
lue. -
We are aware that it has large and still increas-
ing sale, and has been very generally and benefciay
used since its introduction into Canada three wears AGO
and the very fact of having stood the test of three
years experiences proof of its value
We are not in the habit ofrecommendng patent medi-
cines unless the benefits conferred by them have come
under our observation; but in the present instance
we recommend WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD
CHERRY, as medicine worthy of the confidence of
the public in diseases of the Chest and sde and in ma
ny cases in this city severe coughs have yielded to its
influence.

BRANDRETIPS PILLS, AND THE BODY'S
WASTE.-To those candid men who honestly doubt
the truth the Brandrethan SYSTEM we would entreas
them to ponder well upon the following facts
The food taken into the stomach is converted into
blood which vital stream flowing through all the rami-
hcaops Of the system, not only impars strength and
connuales life, but actually forms and builds up
each and every part of the animal machine. Ifthe
blood therefore is pure and healthy, the body which is
formed and supported by the blood cannot be diseased
But here be in any part OF the body any affection such
as bile or ulcer, even bruise the blood circulating
through takes up impure matters from the local
affection and carries it into thegeneral SYSTEM This
is the cause often of sudden death persons of full hab
i, afflicted with biles, and who use no medicine
the matter gets into the circulating system and chokes
up the line blood vessels which supply the brain with
vitality, and life ceases if bareit by lightning Now
this can be remediedthe Brandeth Pills will if used
at these times take out all impure matters from the Cir
cuatlon, and the general health at the time
they are curing the local affections.
Oh how important it is to now find that this subject
be well comprehended, it would save many from ted-
times of Sickness and often secure their services
to their friends when otherwise the tomb would have
its victim.

BIoLoGY.-We see that lecturer on the science
of Biology is soliciting the attention and spare
cash of the citizens of New Orleans. 1t will be
recollected that one of the witnesses in Dr. Web
ster's case, who swore positively to seeing Dr.
Parkman in the street, after the hour when the
Government charged that he was murdered in the
College, had discredt thrown upon his testimony
by the disclosure of the fact that he was Bolo-
gist. What Biology is we do not exactly know,
but infer from the questions put to that witness
that it is gift by virtue of which man is ena-
bled to see that which does rot exist. The word
would literally import the doctrine of life, and it
may be that a Biologist is one who can "lead a
different life' from his natural and actual ONE
Seeing double is an art that has long been not
very difficult of attainment, but this device of see
ing in one form of being what you cannot see at
the same moment in your ordinary state, is mys-
terry too deep for common ken. If Biology makes
much progress in the world, its principles will have
to be expounded in our textbooks of law, and no
witness can be presumed to tell the truth until his
psychology is rigidly investigated.

MEssRs EDITORS: Mr.. Heath having declined being
candidate to represent the city OF Richmond in the
next House of Delegates, allow as a Wing voter
through your columns, to say that shall support the
gentleman who is named above. support Mr.. August
because | have confidence in his we'll balanced and
strong mind his sound Judgment his proverbia urbani-
ty OF manner and the energy which he always brings to
the discharge OF any duty delegated to him. support
Mr. August because the history of Legislation for the
last few years. show conclusvely that of his age
who possessed of his ability make the most efficient
representatives of the interests OF any people.
support Mr. August because the greater amount of
the business of the House of Delegates of late has been
discharged by of his age and activity and in proof
Of this is only necessary to cite the of the bills
of such young and able members of the last House of
Delegates, Messrs. Finney, of Accomac. Hume, OF
Fauquer, Wickham of Hanover, White and Ball. of
old Loudoun, Forbes, of Buckingham, Duckwall, of
Morgan, Dorman of Rockbridge, and twenty others who
can be named, who scarcely reach, or do not exceed
thirty years Of age. The argument that no other than
gray or bald head competent to represent Richmond
our sad inference has shown to be an unsound one.
