Is consequently in great demand by persons
travelling, or about to settle in new parts of the
country especially, as well as by many in every
community, where it has become known, on
account of its various other remedial properties
In all cases of Dropscal tendency, it is gem
orally the only remedy required, when adopted
in the early stage of the disease
In dyspepsia maladies, when taken in proper
quantities, as a diet drink, and especially at
dinner, it is found, by uniform experience, to be
eminently efficacious in the most obstinate cases
when even the best of the usual remedies have
failed to afford more than temporary relief In
cases OF Flatulency, it is an immediate and in
variable specific, and it may be administered in
diluted and proportionate quantities, even to
YOUNG INFANTS, in all those paroxysms of grip
ing pain in the stomach and bowels to which
they are especially subject, well as in the
collie of grown persons.
Its judicious adoption in connection with the
principal meals or when sense of exhaustion
dictates its use, fails to relieve the debli-
ty attendant upon protracted chronic maladies
low temperament and exhausted vital energy, by
whatever cause induced. These are facts to
which many of the most eminent medical men,
both in England and the United States, have
borne testimony, and which are corroborated by
the highest written authorities.

RAJ Mrs. Jacobs, the daughter of the late
Col. Benton, gives the following account of her
fathers interview "a short time before his death
with President Buchanan:
He took the Presidents hand in his, and
said, in clear tones: Buchanan, We are friends;
we have differed on many points, as you well
know, but | have always trusted in your integ-
rity of purpose. supported you, in preference
to Fremont, because he headed a sectional party,
whose success would have been the signal for
disunion- l have known you long, and knew
you would honestly endeayor to do right. have
that faith in you now but you must look to a
Higher Power to support and guide you. We

Douglas in the South.

The New Orleans Courier continues to de-
nounce the Washington Union for its attacks on
Senator Douglas. Douglas" it says, is not
vet beheaded by any executioner, nor yet hung
on any gallows, nor yet imprisoned in any State
prison. He is still apparently alive and WELL
healthy and hearty stumping Hhhois on the
Democratic platform, and smashing Black Re-
publicans generally in sty usual with him
and natural to him as it is perfectly unattainable
by the Washington Union."
In conclusion, it says of the policy of the war
upon the Illinois Senator:
1This is no time for Constitutional party like
ours, State-rights party like ours, and party
whose main strength lies in the South, like ours
to attack him. We who live down here have no
personal objects to subserve by attacking him.
Very few of us like to see the paper which as
pires to be sort of central organ of the party
engaged in this personal warfare Not many of
us choose to think that Mr.. Buchanan approves
of such rantings and seedlings. The Union had
just as well let Mr.. Douglas alone, and spend its
wrath on the Black Republicans of Illinois"
The Delta, commenting on the above says:
"Verily, Douglas could well say, if his defeat
could be brought about by the Washington
Union, that ii acere indeed melancholy TO knotc that
he had been slain By the jar bone Of an ass :"

THE CURSE OF G0LD.-The soil of gold re-
gions is generally poor. The men who seek
such regions go there not as emigrants, but as
adventurers So was it with the conqnerors of
Mexico, so it is with the multitudes who flock to
California. They go and come, as eagles has
ten to the prey, and fly back to their nests in the
mountains after their appetite is gorged and
they have filed their talons with something to
feed their young. This is especially the case
with the leading men of business. They feel
little responsibility for their conduct and less for
the good Of society. They have no home there
tomorrow they will be off forever with their
earnings. What care they for the fate of those
who are to follow them to California or for those
who have become permanent residents there p
Most of the men that depart and most of the
money that leaves California never returns. The
great sums reported from month to month, as
forwarded by the steamers from California, are
a clear drain from the State, and so far as she is
concerned, might as well be poured into the sea,
or sunk in its depths, as the treasure of the
Central Anerica was. Thus she is drained to
enrich other States The riches of Mexico made
her poor. The gold of California is the source
of her wretchedness. She has strong heart
and rich blood, but the haFpies, the vampires,
are sucking that blood.-Boston Tracezey.
There is great deal of truth in this-in fact
it is entirely true so far applies to California
as a mere producer of gold; but it is very far
from correct representation of California, taken
altogether. <
The error of the Iraueller is in the
assumption that California is nothing but gold
producer. The fact is overlooked that this, un-
like other mineral regions, is unsurpassed, if
equaled by any other country in all the ele-
meuts from which national wealth is developed;
that these are substantially independent of our
vast mineral resources and that more than one
half of the whole population steadily pursu-
ing their own fortunes, and building up the
commonwealth, by the use of these elements

and well known during the last twelve years
throughout all the Atlantic and Western States
1t is made from the best barley that can be
selected in Europe, with the essence of an aro-
matte Italian berry, of acknowledged and ex-

since acquired higher reputation, both in
Europe and America, than any other diuretc

Analysed, it is perfectly pure Liquor, in its

In Gravel, Gout and Rheumatism, in obstruc-

invariably reliable; and it is not only remedy
for these malades, but in all cases where they

almost universally the cause of them, it acts as
