KAsE's Ascrrc EXPEDITION. Very few
persons, while sitting at home comfortably y
in their easy chairs, can form any adequate
idea OF the hardships endured by the bold
men who followed the lamen.ed DR.. Kane
on the Giinnell Arctic Expedition. Be
sides the suffering caused by the inhospita.
BILE climate. the intense cold brought on
rheumatism, Stiffness Of the joints, Chill
blains, &C., aud. in many instances the
limbs and members of the daring explorers
were frozen or fost. bitten. Their suirerings
from these causes were very great, and
would have been unenjurable but for the
happy effects Of Linment, invented ex.
pressly for their use by the celebrated DR..
A. g. Bragg, plentiful supply Of which
was taken along with the expedition. This
Liniment proved so valuable, and its merits
so fully confirmed under the most unfavora-
BILE circumstances, that Dr.. Bragg has been
induced to commence its manufacture for
the public. He calls it very propetly-
"BRAGG's ARcric LIsiMEsr." II is now
for sale at all the Drug Stores, and will I'm.
doubtedly come into universal use.

LIABILITY OF RAILROAD COMPANIES

LIABILITY OF RAILROAD COMPANIES.
A ju gment was yesterday affirmed
at the General Term OF the Superior
Court, which is OF interest to travel
ers and Railroad Companies. A
gentleman purchased a ticket in
Washington, from a general agent
of all the lines; through TO this city.
When he arrived here his baggage
was missing, and he subsequently,
sued the Little Miami Railroad
Company for its value, and a judg-
ment was recovered in the Court be-
low. This was affirmed on the
ground that the ticket was recog.
nized by the defendents, which was
sufficient evidence Of the authority
Of the agent at Washington. There
were no circumstances to show that
there was a division or separation OF
contracts as to the various lines, in
regard to the transportation Of the
possessor and his baggage.

Nominations should be made in every tow n

nr ADHERED TO, and our friends can carry
majority OF the townships in the county, and
fight with a show for the balance. The
spring elections have much to do with the
ensuing fall elections. Meetings should be
called during this month in each township,
nominations made, and every Democrat will
vote and W. fk for the ticket.-[ Courier
Il would be we'll for the RepubIi-
cans to give heed to the above plain

AN ApoLooY.-- A communication


from Mr.. A. Ii. Harritt was publish
ed in rather an uncouth form, during
our absence last week, for which we
are prepared to take our full share Of
the blame. The author handed his
manuscript to US, shortly before we
left, with the request that we correct
1t wherein foun1 defective, go as
to give it proper shape for publica-
tion. Not having time to do 80, it
passed into the hands Of the Com
positors, whose duty it was to "fol
low copy" and not correct manu-
script, and from some misunder.
standing between them and the au
thor, the production appeared it the
form It did.
