Messrs. Mortimer & Mou6ray:
Gentlemen-In 1874 had what ny doctors called
violent and combined attack of Chronic Rheuma-
usm and Gout, from which | was confined to my
bed for three months. | had the very best pbysi.
cIans, who tried other various remedies, none of
which gave me any permanent relief. Not having
ease from pain day or night, became much emaci
aled; my whole system mass Of disease, literally
speaking from the crown Of my he ID to the sole of
my feet. had to hobble about-nost of the time
connned to the house; at times so helpless thar
had 20 be assisted to my bed. I was also afflicted
with a dreadful cough, great shortness of breath
sore threat, papauon of the heart, and pain i'm nv
slde SO bad could not lay on it. My appetite en-
treiy failed me- gave up all hopes OF being restored
10 health again. continued thus TO suffer on from
1874 TO 1880 period Of six years. At thi. time my
daughter saw at her grandmother'sa pamphlet, with
numerous eefiIhcates Of cures made by Or. Hamp-
toms Vegetable Tincture.
l knew some OF those who certified 10 cures per
formed on themselves and friends. was resolved
t0 give IT trial. L informed my doctor Of il. He
objected out my suferings were so great hat pro-
cured one bottle, and, before had taken the whole

persevere. Afler taking the second botlle was
oetcr tllan Tor the past six years, my appetite

&c, nearly all gone. l continued using this won
derful medicine until had taken seven bottles, ac-
cordins 10 the directions; and am happy to say
Hampton 1incture, and that alone restored me TO
perfect health, which has continued up this time
"A period Of three years. am in The 65th year of

so affected, like myself, with Rheumatism, &c. He

tined, will speak for itself. My only object in de-
scribing 10 you my suferiDgs and the way obtained
relief, is to induce the afflicted to try this Tineiurc,
which has, under the blessings of God done much
for me.

NJ. s. Il. Curtis, The gentleman who has

Rspshican in relation to the improvement
Of the Lower r lpids, and in advocating his
old jIca that canal shoull be constructed
around them, says the Mississippi has
more capacity for commercial purposes than
. thousand RAILROADS. I, is not surprising
that Mr.. Curtis should desire 70 continue
riding hobby which has been profitable
and which he my WISH to make more so,
but II is certainly very foolish Tor nan at
this day 10 SAY any thing in depreciation Of
Railroads. Mr.. Curtis, however, does not
seen to have any better idea of the bes.
way OF developing the resources of a coun-
try, than Of carrying on military operations
.His aPinions about rivers. canals add rail-
roads, and their relative advantages for COM
merciai purposes, IRE in keeping with the
letter by which when he was in the militia
~ line. he alarmed the coantry with the
famous call for City. thousand volunteers.
Illinois had all along had the benei, Of
the Mississippi river, bat what was il except
her system Of r railroads that within the last
few years has caused her to prosper in a
manner almost unprecedented even in the

marked the other day, il it had not been for

Sin no place, perhaps, can young per-

cuisted to corrupt her sensibiliiies, than at

the clorn. No person can hear him with.
out feeling modification at being CON-
PEELED TO listen. There is not particle Of
dignity or good sense about the whole mat

Mrs. Dali, one Of the addresses OF the
Una, who has translated the Spiridion Of
George Sand for that paper, gives the fol-
lowing explanation or rather defence Of her
reasons for so doing, II will be seen that
the lady speaks with positiveness that
might be expected frem one belonging to
The new school,
"In offering in this months Una, the be-
ginning Of my translation Of Spirdion, |
wish 10 address to my distant readersa few
words.
.The principal reason for inserting It in
the Una, is the fact, that tits awork upon
a profound subject, ably written, by o.
mans hand. But this,it may be objected.
is no reason for publishing it, if the W oman
be one who di.honors her sex, who holds no
common faith or hope with US. In the dis
tant parts of the West, where the name of
George Sand is little known, fear this OBJ
lection may be urged. From all Who urge
il, ask a little patience. The character
of its author is not one to be judged in a
corner here or there by knot of vilase
gossips. A jury OF her peers could hardly
Be found in the civilized world to try il. GER
tainly not in America. Whatever else she
is, she is devoted seeker after truth, and
whoever reads Spiridion TO the end, will find
it work worthy OF noble woman and an
upright soul"

CAPIArs HEsRY.-The National Intsni-
eencer alluding to the Captain Henry who
commands the Texas volunteers now in the
Mexican frontier warfare, says he is the
Texas corps in the Q. S. army whose term
ofserrice vas about 10 expire, profered the
services Of himself and company to the
Mexican Governor Of Chihuahua, to chas-
tise the savage enemies Of the Mexican Re-
public. Truly, Captain Henry must be

ferent as to the side ON which he may be

From NEW ORLEANS. -Advices from
New Orleans as late as the lith state that
sugars were rapidly advancing, but West
eFn produce generally was on the decline.
With regard to. the health of the city
the Picaynne gives the following cau-
tious though apparently candid account
"The weekly report of interments appear.
ed in last evenings paper. Itdoes not pre-
sent so favorable an aspect as the weekly
reports from the Charity Hospital made up
on Saturday, TO which We eferred on Sun
day as indicating falling off Of the mortu-
AIRY records. The number Of burials on Sat
urday and Sunday swells the aggre gate and
leave balance of increase on the whole
mortality OF the week before. This is TO
be regretted but not concealed. The fever
increased last week, and the fact is neither
to be suppressed or disclosed While cor
recting the impressions made by our Sun
day estimate of partial reports, we may add
that there is belief among the faculty that
the disease has reached its height, and that
from the character OF the occurring cases
there is hope of abatement. Much, how
ever, will depend upon the weather; and We
must exercise caution 10 expressing deci-
ded opinions until the experience of another
week gives Us some data

Ths Ice Trade.

Hunts Merchants Magazine for Angus;
has an article giving the statistics of the ice
trade. According 10 i, the FIRST cargo Of
ice exported from this country, was shipped
to the West Indies, by Frederic Tudor, in
1906, but owing to various circumstances
the investment lid not pay, and it was not
until 1924 tina, NJ. T. commenced realizing
aprodt from the basiness. In 1882, the
same gentleman, the only person then en-
gagged in the business, ship ped from Boston
4.352 tons. Last year there were
shipped from tina. place l66,54o tons,
and tae ice crop in the vicinity of,ha,
city amounted to 3s5.O00 tons. Il is esti-
mated that the amount OF capital invested
in the ice trade 10 all parts Of the United
States is somewhere near $1,000 900. 1,
would be hard to find place in the world
where reguiar bred Yankee could not
make living and something over.
