The Bowels and their Functions.

perfect health is the greatest blessing that we
can enjoy, without which all other blessings are
of little consequence, deem it of great import
ance to point out the way for you to enjoy it.
The bowels must be kept in state by which they
are enabled to carry off the useless matter; they
are the main channel which nature has appointed
to carry everything that is unnecessary. And It
is impossible TO tell what large amount of sick
ness has been caused by constipation, or costiye-
ness; in other words, by not keeping the bowels
regular: it is the main road to all diseases: it is
the cause of unnatural irritation to the mucous
lining membranes of the bowels. Having lost
their natural strength, they cannot object to what
IS required of them. Hence, the bowels become
infamed, and unless you find speedy relief, a
thousand other complaints are ever ready to drag
YOU through miserable and wretched life. Such
medicines must be given as will cleanse the stom-
ach and bowels and restore their natural strength.
To accomplish this there is no compound so valu-
able as these Pills. all other medicines sink to ut
ter insignlicance when compared to them; 1t seems
as though the Author OF Nature had designed them
for this as well as other complaints. From two
to five Pills day will increase strength and appe
tite, and cleanse the stomach and intestnes from
whatever is injurious.

I ED,


On February 23d, 1858, at the residence of his
father, JAMES B. FRANKLIN, BEN, only child of
MARY V. and DR.. BEN. FRANKLIN, aged year,
Fl months and IA days. He was darling boy
the pride of his mother-the strong hope of his
father. Often when troubles and difficulties,
which were many. would press down the hearts
of his parents, his little prattle would cheer them
up to renewed effort, fol from their boy they fond
~ hoped to realize much joy and pleasure when
he should grow to manhood, but alas all their
darling schemes and fond hopes are frustrated by
the fell monster Death. While sagacity may
contrive, patience mature and labor industriousIy
execute, Death laughs at the curious fabric form
ed by so many efforts and gay with so many bril-
liant colors. While the artist may think his work
is progressing with undoubted certainty, Death
brushes away the beautiful web and leaves no.
thing behind. But yes, there is something left
behind-the knowledge that our boy is now an
angel in the bright abodes of bliss, looking down
upon his bereaved parents-and will meet
and welcome them to their Saviour's bosom, vince
"Sickness and sorrow pain and death
Are felt and feared no more"
Died, on the 10th ult.. after brief but painful
illness, which he bore with patience and resigna-
ton, JAMES S. EDELEN, in the 18th year OF
bis age, son Of the late T. H. EDELEN, ESQ.,. OF

THE LEGIsLATURE,-The San of yesterday
says: This body is getting through with its bt,,
siness with some dispatch, but mostly the bills
are of minor and local character In the
Senate yesterday, however, an important mea-
sure was ordered to engrossment- in salts
faction of the Eastern Shore claim for some
100000 for internal Improvements, under the
loan bill Of 1885, and appropriating Washing
ton branch and Baltimore and Ohio railroad
stock, with tile unpaid or extra dividend, there
for A movement is also made for a repeal of
the act which released the Baltimore and Ohio
road from the penalty of $1,0OO,0O0 for not
passing its road through Washington county.
In the House the session of yesterday was a
highly interesting one, the bill for a constitu-
tional convention being under discussion, and
various important amendments proposed and
acted upon. 1t was determined, by vote of
A to %, that the convention should not have
power to change the existing relation of master
and slave. The House has determined that no
new bills shall be introduced in that body after
tomorrow, and ordered to third reading the
Baltimore city passenger railroad bill, after a.
mending it SO as to prohibit Baltimore street
from being used.

] + The PROPOSED STATE CONSTITUTIONAL Con-
1vENTIoN.-The subject of new convention
for the purpose of reforming the constitution Of
Maryland, in anticipation Of the time when it is
made the bounden duty of the Legislature to
provide for taking the sense of the people on
such a step-that is at each decade when the
national census shall have been taken-is now
one of prominence in the State. A bill is pend
ing before the Legislature for bringing about a
convention much sooner than one could other
wise occur, under the next census, to be taken
in 1860 measure which the present constitu-
ton in nowise attempts to hinder, the power of
altering or amending their organic law always
resting inherent in the sovereignty of the people.
The bill was up in the House of Delegates on
Monday. It provides that a vote of the people
shall be taken on the fourth Wednesday of
May, and that the act shall be published in the
newspapers of every county of the State for
three weeks previous to the election. Should
the people decide in favor of convention, the
election for delegates therte is to take place on
the second Wednesday of October. The con-
vention under the bill, is to be held on the first
Wednesday of January. The constitution, as a
whole, must be adopted by majority Of the
members Of the convention. The constitution
adopted is to be submitted to vote of the peo-
pie for it's ratification at the next general cleo
ton, and to 60 into operation on such day as
the constitution itself may prescribe.-Sum.
