General
Prostration
of the ,rhole System.


1t Immediately counteracts that distressing
Nervousness and Lassitude so common to the fe-
male frame, and imparts an energy and buoyance
as surprising as they are grateful. We have evil
dence ON file which induces strongly to re-
commend this medicine to married people who
have not been blessed with offspring.
The Shaker prepared ' Yellow Dock'' and the
" Red Honduras Sarsaparilla'' are the invaluable
remedial agents from which DR.. Guysott's I'm
proved Extract of Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla
is formed, and the Laboratory of DIR. Guysott has
given us the virtues of these roots in their perfec
ton. His preparation contains all the restora-
tive properties of the roots, combined and con-
centrated in their utmost strength and efficacy.
Experiments were made in the manufacture of
this medicine until it found that it could not
be farther improved.
Accordingly we find it resorted to almost uni
versally in cases of Hepatic, Scorbutic and Cuta-
neous complaints, for general prostration of all
the vital powers, and all those tOrmenting disea-
ses OF the skin so trying to the patience and so
injurious to health.

By the tele graphic clippings from Boston

| American schooners have been seized by the
British Steamer Devastation, the intelligence
creating great excitement at Gloucester.
Trouble seems to be brewing out Of this
complicated question, and while reports as to
action upon it at Washington, are very vague
and unsatisfactory, the American vessels sent
out for the express purpose of guarding our
rights upon the fishing grounds, are represen.
ted as feasting and having very easy sort OF
time at Halifax.
We can anticipate only the most serious diff
culties, unless more prompt and decisive ac-
ton be taken by the powers that be- at Wash

The kOSZta Affair.

The Koszta question is likely to assume a
much more important character than was first
anticipated. Mr.. Marcy is already pledged to
the position that the fling of a declaration of
an intention to become citizen of the United
States entities the individual to the protection
Of this government. 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. Marcy was a member Of the mixed
commission, as it was termed, to adjust the
claims of American citizens against Mexico
One Of these claims was that Of an Italian gen.
tleman who had declared his intention of be.
coming citizen of The United 81 atcs previous
TO the depredatons being committed on his
property by Mexico. The Mexican commits
the mere declaration did not entitle The partyto
immunities of citizen of the United States.
The case was finally submitted to the arbitra-
tion of the King of Prussia, through his min
Ister, and decided adversely to the position
assumed by Mr. Marcy. 1t is a matter Of
great importance to thousands who reach
our shores and file their declarations Of in.
tention to become ci.izeus, to have this
point decided. Mr.. Marcy, we--blieve, took
the ground that they are in the same posiotion
rs children born here, who although they can.
not vote or hold property till they are twenty.
one years old, still. during their minority, un
questionably entitled to the protection of The
United States. Should this position be taken
the release Of Kossia will doubtless be imper
atively demanded by our government. l,
will be due, not only to our national honor
but to the vas, population which seek oul
shores in pursuit Of that civil and religious lib
erty which is denied them IN Europe.
No better opportunity for settling the ques
ton can rise. and public opinion will uphold
the executive in the enunciation Of whatever
may be deemed true Ameri can doctrine, nc
matter how bold it may appear-New York

We have received communication signed by
many citizens complaining Of the irregularity
of the delivery ofthe Reporter and other mail
matter at the above Office. They say the Re-

unabs to say but the Reporter has been regu-
larry mailed TO that office and should reach
there regularly on Thursday evening the day
after its pub cation.
The Post Master at Iowa City assures us
that there has been no delay in that office: the
delay in delivery must therefore necessarily
be at the Bear Creek Office or the packages are
detained at one Of the Offices on the route, in

Dcs SIoines River Improvement.

A convention was hello at Eddyville on the
4th inst, for the purpose of adopting some
plan of removing the distractions to the navi.
cation o! the Des Moibes. occasioncd by the old
dams, snags ,boulders, DC. The Commissioners
and Register of the Improvement were present
and expressed their views fully with regard to
the matter. Mr.. Bonnev remarked that the in
debledness Of the Improvement amounted to
some 1925 goo. for which the lands were pledg.
cd That $500 had been appropriated TO re-
move the dams at Pennington aud Keosauqua.
That there was no prospect of capitalists lay
ing hold of the work, either Tor the lands or
otherwise; and that the people of the Valley
had better organize joint stock companies, take
the lands. and complete the work themselves.
Mr.. Gillasps remarked that if contract TO
carry on the work were not entered into by the
LIST of September, the term Of Office of the COM
missioner would cease that the responsibilities
of the Improvement would then devove upon
him; and that ia that contingency it was his
de,ign to clear out the old dams from bank 10
bank, as we'll as the snags, boulders, and other
distractions. 90 far As the resources at his
mmand would admit That III sufficient sun
could not be raised By the sale Of lands, he
would appropriate for that object land itself
| or certificates of Indebtedness; and that by the
first of February, $4,000 would probably be
subject to that disposition.
These suggestions on the part Of the Com
missioner and Register were cordially approx
ed of by the convention; and for the purpose
of cooperating with them, and assisting to car.
ry out their designs. it was resolved that
committees be appointed by each county on
the river to aid in procuring men and money
as the same may be wanted from time to tine
to carry into execution the above objects dur.
ing the low stage of water this present season
That the said committees proceed at once to
the discharge of their duties, and as soon as
practicable notify the Board what men and
money are held subject to their order and ready
to commence the work at a moments notice.
