DISTINGUISHED V1s1ToRs.-On Wednes-
day morning last we were honored with
very pleasant call from the Hon. Daniel
Woodson, our worthy, popular and efficient
Secretary of Kansas, and Mr.. Logwood
from Virginia, who is on visit to our
Territory. We have known Mr.. Wood
son for many years past from his enviable
reputation and unblemished character in
Va, but never had the pleasure of making
his personal acquaintance previous to the
present occasion. We found him pleasant
and affable in his address, easy and unas-
suming in his manners, and withal a per-
feet gentleman. Mr.. Logwood Is anelder-
ly gentleman, of fine social qualities, and
we hail his name as valuable accession
to the circle of our Virginia acquaintances.

an excellent preparation, and shall therefore
not hesitate to recomme nd it to our readers
it has been tested in numerous instances in this
city, and in several which have come under our
own observation, it has accomplished what
other popular medicines and some of our most
skilful physicians had failed to acco mplish-a
perfect cure, in cases of (apparently) confirmed
consumption. 1t is the only medicine for this
disease which we can heartily recommend
