Ayers Ague Cure,

which ne,ltralizes this malariols poison in the

q! rather does what il OF lnorc service TO those SUBJ
jcct 20 this Infection. If taken in season it cxpcls
i. from the svstc,n as it IL absorbed, and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequent, it not only cures, but protects from,
the great variety of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Relnittent
Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fercrs, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earaete. Catarrl, Asthma, Palpita-
,ions, painfnl Affections Of the Spleen, Mysteries,
Cole, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of the
Stomach and Bowels. all of which, whc1 arising
from this cause, will lie found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AGUE CURE"
removes the cause Of these arrangements, and cures
the disease.
This it acconplishes by stimulating the exc1e-
tories to cxpel the virus from the system and
these organs by degrees become habited TO do this

We term acrhpGtation. Time may accomplish the

does it ut once, and with safety. We have great
reason to believe this is a sure as well as safer

important advantage To the public, which u.s. that

The Private History Of IL.
dispatch to the Cincinnati COMMERCIAL

New YORK, July 1.-THE Hon. Daniel E.
has sent letters to his most intimate friends,
informing them that he has resumed his marital
relations with his wife. The letters were written
yesterday and to-day, and in consequence Of the
discovery that months ago he resumed the rela-
t ton In the most intimate form; The story, for
which we have excellent authority, is this:
Mrs. Sickles, during and since the trial, has
resided at her outraged husbands country house,
situated on Private avenue, leading from Bloom
ingdale road between Fig hty-Fifth and Nineticth
streets, and overlooking the river. Thomas G
Fields, the Public Administrator of the city. and
intimate friend of Mr.. Sickles took house about
June !. which is three quarters of mile or 20
above Mr.. Sickles's villa and on private avenue
leading from BlOomingdale road. Mr.. Field had
not been long in his new quarter before his friend
Daniel requested the privilege of occupying a
Aroom which request was granted
IL was however, soon observed that Mr. 8 was
in the habit Of leaving the house where he lodged
late at night and returning early in the morning
How often he did this it is impOssibl to say. But
at length suspicion was aroused and fixed In the
right direction. A few mornings ago, MIR. Field
happened to be with Mr.. Emanuel B. Hart whom
you remember a fast and fearful friend of the
homicide during the trial, whom should they NEE,
but MIR. Sickles on his return from his morning
walk. They asked him where he had been. az
friends do. He fired up and gave an answer i'm
porting that it was none of their business. "But, -
said Mr. Field, lit is my business il YOU have
been having clandestne intercourse with a dis
honored wife and living i'm my house the while
because it suits your marital convenience - The
upshot of the matter was. that Mr.. Sickles in.
formed his friends that that to be done openly
henceforth which had hitherto been done clandes
timely 1t is well understood that MIR. Sickle.
could never have made out a case justifying di
vorce on the ground of his wife's adultery. Blu
| this news will surprise some persons.

Spirit of the Morning Press.

The Constitution descants upon the principles
and purposes Of the Republicans, and also treats
ironically the 9 bloody, bold, and resolute" alh
of Wendell Phillips and Edmund Quincy, ieao-
ing abolitionists.
The IHtsEigeHesT, quoting and commenting
upon the extract from despatch OF the STATE
Department TO the L. 8. Minister at Berlin, on
the naturalization question, recently published In
the Constitution says that 1t is tempted to doubt
whether our Government, in assuming, as it un-
derstands IL to do, that a nation has no right to
exact military service of a natural born subject
who may have subsequently become citizen Of
the United States, unless that service actually
due at the date Of his emigration, has not under
taken to establish proposition which admits Of
question In toiR. of the principles properly apPli-
cable to the case. The Iat.Higeneer argues that
If German municipality chooses to enjoin mill
tary duty upon all natutsl-born subjects within
its Jurisdiction, 1t may be difacut to convince
that Government that the evasion of a subject
prior to, and therefore full in prospect of, his
future liability to serve in the army" deserves
70 exempt him from the obligation in question,
and that in settling this point we cannot demand,
of right, that the German Government should
give any consideration whatever to our natural
lzation laws. AS these latter are wholly mu-
nicipal in their origin, it contends that they are
also wholly municipal in their operation

III Mr. Stockton, the United states Minister
at Rome, is taking energetic measures for obtain
ing satisfactory reParation in behalf of highly
respectable American citizen who was in Perugia
at the time of the conflict, by which he was
sufferer to a considerable amount This is Mr.
Edward Newton Perkins of Boston, who had
arrived III that unfortunate town from Rome on
the 18th instant, with Mrs. Perkins, Mrs. Doane
widow Of the late Bishop of New Jersey, Mrs
and Miss Clements, and two servants and was
staying at the Hotel &c France with the intention
of looking for villa in the neighborhood as
summer residence. About five o'clock in the
afternoon of the both, after the town had been
taken, and when Mr.. Perkins and HE party had
sat down TO dinner a band of soldiers invaded
the hotel rushed into the dining room, and killed
the waiter before the eyes of the Mortified latsiex
shot the master of the hotel also. and proceeded
TO destroy the furniture and carry off all that was
valuable and portable. Mr.. Perkins and his party
saved their Ives By escaping with the mother of
the hotel-keepe' into an adjacent bedroom, con-
tanning a secret passage into which they all
cramme6 and remained hid for fourteen hours
At the end Of that time they veHtured out and
surveyed with disInay the wreck left by the mill
tary plunderers- Amongst the booty ffeY carried
Of was the best part Of Mr.. Perkins's and the
ladies' luggage, consisting of seven trunks and
eight carpet bags, and containing much valuable
property, watches, jewelry, and objects Of pur-
Chased IN Rome. The actual loss amounts to
about 1850, but many things, such as Mr.. Per-
kins's private papers, can never be replaced

NEGRO RESURRECTION IN VENEzUELA.-An
arrival at Philadelphia brings important news
from Venezuela. The negroes of the villages in
the vicinity of Puerto Cabello have risen and conf
mitted horrible outrages, requiring the employ
ment of troops to put them down and restore
order. Several columns oftroops are in pursuit Of
the insurgents, but they to the woods as soon
they approach and resume their ravages when
they disappear. The rising is not political
movement. 1t is simply question of blacks and
whites. The leader of the insurgents is Antonio
Ruiz, native Of st. Domingo, under the assumed
lame Of Thomas Falcon
