What Plutes Saw.

No. TO- ,Sap several western men who were dis
cussing the merits of the River and Harbor bill.
All Of them of course denounced any President
who had or would veto it. Some New Yorker, who
had not previously said anything during the con-
versation, quietly remarked, that "enough money
had been expended in New York city alone for
the support of foreign paupers as would suffice to
improve all the rivers and harbors in uncle Sams
dominions." "Dont know" but do know that
now men from all parts Of the country seem to
agree with "the gentleman from New York"
No. II. Saw, with infinite pleasure, that the wings
Of the Capitol have progressed finely during the
last twelve months--think, that "a good times
coming for the reason, that the American mem
bers elect to the next Congress, will have the
satisfaction of occupying seats untainted by dema
goguisn, and free from the smell of the foreign
vote"
No. IS. Dropped into the saloon of oneof our
hotels. Saw an Irish attache of the house engaged
in Transforming several numbers Of the american

ola Virginia paper publicly remark that although
he was a Democrat, and favored Mr.. Wise's cleo

himself an old line Democrat he should neither
vote for or against Mr.. Wise; and, furthermore,

from being completed; said that numerous corps of
agents had been traversng his State for years past

ment thinks there must be something rotten in

bore certificates Of good character, and that each

that there were agents in other States besides Yer

RHEUMATIsM.

This severe and painful disease has long
bafaed the skill of thousands of our most eel
ebrated physicians Time and money have
been wasted in futile endeavors to obtain
some embrocation that would perform cure
but all have failed except HuSr's LIYIMEsr,
and that has been successful in almost every
instance in which it has been employed.
Rheumatism arises from different causes,
but most generally proceeds from colds, expo
sure to the weather, aud sleeping in damp
rooms. Those who are subject to this COM
plant should avoid remaining in damp places
too long Reader, II you have the rheuma
tism, no matter how slight procure bottle
of that remedy, SO celebrated under the name
of HcSTs IMMINENT, without delay, and apply
it thoroughly to the parts affected, and pain
will vanish.
