FoR FEMALEs.--lt is Il lamentable fact that
so large number of females are afflicted with
Irregularities, either profuse or suppressed
which rapidly and surely undermine their
health, shorten their lives, and ofttimcs renders
them unfit for those duties in life for which an
all-wise Creator has formed them. This state
of things need not exist when DR.. Whcating' S
FEMALE REGULATING Pills are so sure to bring
relief They arc composed of materials, harm
less to the most delicate constitution, but cfli-
cient in the highest degree in eradcating that
train Of diseases incident to the sex, Originate
ing from irregularities. They arc no Nostrum,
but claim for themselves virtues resulting from
the use Of those most valued remedies, prescri-
bed by the highest medical authority, ancient
or modern. Many females give way to dcspon-
dency, imagining themselves in a confirmed
decline. TO such we would confidently re-
commend these Pills; believing if there is a
power in any remedy to effect a permanent
cure, that blessing will ensue frcm their use
They are manufactured only by J. T.. Bower
cor ID and Race streets, Philadelphia. None
genuine without his written signature upon
each box. Price 81 90. sept. 10.

A ki,cn Chasing its Tail.


Every one has laughed. VIC suppose, al
a kitten chasing its tail The fantastic gy-
rations of the pussy of the Democrat in
pursuit of its own vertebreical aPpendage
is very laughable Here is a sample:
1.-The nomination of DIR. Brown, for Sen
ator. opened wound which no sntidote
the Doctor is possessed of, can heal.'
Smart little pussy cat, that. How hap
py and earnest it seems in pursuing its in
noceut amusement. But. see, now it is
playing with ray of moonshine:
AT this juncture of the proceedings it
was really laughable to see the South
Benders kick and hounce They were
beat en- } at their own game They were
mad--and no body to blame but them
selves. AS they left the ground, we noti-
ced the rising of a storm on their counte-
nances, which will likely spend its fury on
the Doctor, next October
Ha, ha, ha. He, he. he. Did you ever
see such pert, active, intelligent little
pussy9 y truly wonderful development
of the genus feline With what pride all
grimalkins must regard it, especially its pa
ternal ancestors.

EE- The account given of the Republi-
can Congressional Convention, at this
place, on the 10Th, in the South Bend Fo-
fam, is very discreditablc to that sheet
1t contains several misstaiements, which
any man, with any claims whatever to We
racity, should be ashamed to utter. A.
mong other things it says Judge Fuller
addressed the sun cheated spectators in what
must be regarded an exceedingly fulsome
panegyric.'
Judge Fuller's remarks ON that occa
sion could only be considered tulSonse by
those who are blinded by bitter prejudice,
or obscured by mental imbecility. In the
same article the Forum speaks of its "stur-
dy friend of the Marshall County Demo
crdt.' 1t is unnecessary to add only a
single remark to this by way of comment
the retching in the Forums stomach
must have been produced by swallowing
this nauseous dose, as he did not hear the
remarks of Judge L. "Sturdy." indecdl
Compliments must be cheap at the Forum
Office. B-ou-k! Hand us the camphor!

New Albany and salem Railroad.

The Evansville journal. in speaking of
the transfer of The New Albany and Salem
Railroad to the bondholders, says.
In the transfer Of the New Albany and
Salem Railroad from the stockholders 10
the bondholders, which has been effected
under an agreement AMI decree of the
United States District Court, the stock
holders are permitted to- retsin ten per cent
OF their original stock. Yhe bondholders
assume the floating debt, which they will
pay of at once, and the road will be put
in good order. Under tho new arrange
ment, the Hon. David a Noble, of Mich
igan, takes the place of Mr. Brooks as Pres
idcnt of the cornpsny. Mr.. Noble is
gentleman who stands desertedly high as
an exterprisiDg and capable bushes man.
He formerly represented his District in
Congress; he brings to his new and respon.
sfble position large xperience snd much
valuable inIormatIor on the subject of the
proper management of railroads.
Mr.. Brooks, the late president, retires.
who from the inception of the enterprise TO
the present time-a period of more than
ten years, has had the management of the
road. commencing with the modest des-
Ign of building railroad from New
Albany to Salem, q distance of thirty
five miles, Mr.. Brooks went on from step
to step, till. with the aid of an efficient
Board of Directors. be saw completed and
equipped a line of railway nearly three
hundred miles in length. binding with
bands of iron the Ohio river with Lake
Michigan. When we consider the diff
culties which surrounded the enterprise
the lack of capital and OF influential names
to back it up. and that the first part of the
road was built through country encom-
passed by rocks and hills, and the later
part through wild region where for a hun
dred miles there was scarcely human
habltation--when, we say, all, this is con-
sidered, the achievement is ono of no or.
binary nature.
