Another Case Of Fever and Ague Cured.
eB A few days ago we recorded
an astonishing cure of Fever and Ague
by the use of DIR. M'Lane's Liver Pills,
prepared by Fleming Bros, Pittsburgh,
Pa. We have now another to men
ton, viz: that of Mr.. James Sharps, of
Madisonburgh, who states that he had
labored under avery severe attack of
Ague and Fever, and was soon restored
by the use of these Pills. Mr.. Sharpe
also expresses an opinion, founded on
observation, that the Liver Pills are
the best for bilious complaints ever Of
fered in his section of country.
Although long known as sovereign
remedy for chronic cases of Hepatic
arrangement, or diseases of the Liver,
the proprietors, Fleming Bros, of DR..
M'Lane's Pills, were not. prepared for
the frequent, but gratifying evidences
of its general utility and curative Ca
pscity. In this respect, this invailua-
bic medicine has exceeded their most
sanguine expectations, and induced
them to hope that it will be introduced
into every family in the United States.
W Purchasers will be carful to
ask for DR.. MLone's celebrated Yer
mitugs manufactured by Fleming
Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa Ali other
Verrnifuges in comparison are worth
less. Dr. McLane's genuine Vermi-
fuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills can
now be had at all respectable drug
stores. None genuine Without the sig
nature of 81 FLEMING BROS.

CRIME IN NEW YORK CITY.-The
Police force of New York City, ac-
cording to the last quarterly report of
the Superintendent, number 1916 men.
The numbers of arrests, for three
months, was 1922, of which 1864
were for offences against property, and
16,59s for offences against persons, or
the public peace. Of the latter class,
l4,O19 are traceable to the use of in
toxicating liquors. At the moderate
estimate of SO, as the expense of each
arrest, this gives the nice little sum of
$40, 100 for public liquor bill, paid in
the shape of taxes.~C@E

The &c Irrepremible ConnLct''-DonsIas,
then Linc>In, then Trumbuli.
The little Giant has stirred up hor-
NETS nest in Ohio. He came, as Is as
serted, to make diversion in favor Of
" Ohio's gallant young Senator" and
to exhibit himself to the Democracy.
Immediately upon his heels it il an
nounced that the Hon. Abe Lincoln

Giant so dreadfully in Illinois last year
lis to address the people of Ohio on
the other side. And hardly does the
ink announcing his appointments dry,
in hundred Republican newspapers,
when it is announced that Senator
Trumbull, of Illinois-that other arch
enemy of the Douglas Squatter Sover-
eighty in the u. s. Ssnate-wiIl also
address the people of Ohio. The Ohio
State Journal says that Trumbull viii
speak at Cleveland next Thursday even

yesterday that Douglas will speak at

REPUBLICAN TICKET IN WISCONSIN.
The Republicans of Wisconsin have
nominated for Governor, A. w. Ran
dali; 1t. Governor, B. G. Noble Sec
rotary of State, L. P. Harvey; Treas
urer, S. D.. Hastings, Attorney Gener-
al, James H. Howe Bank Comptroller,
G. Van Steenwyx; States Prison Com
missioner, Hans Heg; Superintendent
of Public Commission, G. S. Pickard.
Carl Schurz was first nominated for
Lieutenant Governor, but declined say.
ing he wanted no other rank than that
of private soldier in the great con
test of 1860. Mr. Randall is the pres.
ent capable and popular Governor, and
the entire ticket has strong claims to
the confidence of the people.

The Dayton and Michigan Railros

The Dayton and Michigan Railroad.
The final completion of this Railroad
to Toledo is of considerable impor-
lance to the people Of Central Michi-
gan, as sffording new and important
connection with one of the great bust
ness centers of the Country. The
Dayton & Mich. Railroad runs directly
south from Toledo to Cincinnati, being
almost an air line, and a saving Of
nearly one hundred miles over the old
route from Toledo, via Columbus, to
the Queen City. Since the completion
of the Jackson Branch, quite a trade
has sprung up between Jackson and
other points in Central Michigan and
Cincinnati, and that trade must neces-
sarialy continue to increase. Many of
our merchants now go to Cincinnati,
Louisville and Memphis to buy their
sugars, and the day is not far distant
when large share of this trade from
Central Michigan will 60 directly south.
But hitherto some of our merchants
have bought sugars and molasses at
Chicago, Mic higan City and st. Louis,
on account of the indirect communion
ton afforded with the Ohio River.
This obstacle is now obviated and the
DAYTON & Michigan Road, will, by
means of the Branch Roads from To-
ledo to jackson and Detroit, open an
avenue for direct trade between the
Ohio River cities and the whole of In
terror Michigan. To as at this point,
1t is extremely valuable, giving our
wholesale merchants direct and re-
liable connection with the sugar pro-
ducing interest, and thus placing it in
their power to compete with, and in
fact undersell the best figures that can
be made in New York or Detroit.
Aside from the requirements of the
travelling public which alone will rem
der this line prosperous, Its completion
and operation will not fall to give new
life and impetus to every department
of business in this city. Our immense
expectation Of Farming Tools, Cabinet
Ware, Boots and Shoes, Wagons and
Carriages, and our Coal trade will AL
be Accommodated and enhanced, ~ new
avenues of communication are thrown
open, and we confidently predict that
no point in Michigan if indeed upon
the whole connecting line will be more
greatly benefited by the completion and
opening of this new road than the city
J Of Jackson. Citizen, Jackson.

THE VERMONT ELECTloN.-The re-
turns from two-thirds of the State show
that Gov. Halls majority will be con-
siderably larger than last year. The
Republicans have increased their vote
at least 1900, while the Democrats,
Notwithstanding their exertions, do not
seem 20 have gained anything. In II
towns the vote stands-Hall, 1854
SAKE, 5l2s. The Republicans, as taI
as heard from, elect IA Represents
tives against II elected by the Demo
Gratis. 1t is needless to say the Leg
islature will be overwhelmingly Repub
lican.

TROUBLE AT HARTFoRD.-Much i'll
feeling has been caused at Hartford by
a bayonet charge of the military, to
keep the AGRA clear on the occasion of
the reception of Ex-Governor Seymour.
A young man named Charles w.
Banks, 25 years of age, who was sit
ting in a wagon with ladies, was stab
bed in the back and lies in great agony,
it being doubtful whether he will re-
cover. A horse was stabbed attached
to carriage, in which is said to have
been sitting the wife of the officer who
ordered the charge. The wagon and
carriage were so wedged in that they
could not be moved in season to escape
the deadly charge.

+, A DELICATE CONTAMINATION.
William Dennison, Republican candi-
date for Governor of Ohio, was address
sing meeting at Portsmouth, Ohio
where many ladies were present.
After speaking for some time he apollo
gized for his prolixity, and turning to
a clock in the farther end of the hall,
remarked that the time had passed by
SO feetly that he was afraid he was
taxing the patience of his audience.
T. Go on, go on" was heard from every
part of the house, until the speaker
proceeded. At this moment when
everything was still, pretty lady arose
in the audience, took off thick veil,
and quietly walked to the clock and
covered up the dial plate.

A SCoUNDREL FERRETED oUT.-The
Kansas correspondent Of the Cincin-
natl Gazette writes, that the man who
betrayed DR.. boy and Son into the
hands of the Missouri slave catchers,
has been discovered, and proves to be
one ]. J. Huzzy, native New Eng
lander, who ought to be stoned with
bits of Plymouth Rocks. Huzzy, on
being completely entrapped, made a
full confession of his villainly. He
was assisted by Missourian, named
Thompson, and Garvin, the locofoco
Postmaster of Lawrence. The object
was to obtain the reward offered for the
Fugative negroes.

New York Republican Convention.
The Republican State Convention OF
New York, which met at Syracuse on
Wednesday, was one of the largest
ever held in the State, every county
and every district being represented.
Its deliberations were conducted in
perfect harmony, and the ticket nomi.
mated. which is admitted to be a strong
and able one, was unanimously chosen,
The following are the candidates:
Secretary Of State-Elias W. Leav-
enworth, of Onondaga = formerly
Wing. ~
Comptrol1er-Robert Denniston, OF
Orange-formerly Democrat.
Attorney GeneraNCharles G. Mey-
ers, of st. Lawrence-also formerly
Democrat.
State Esngineer-Orville w. Story,
of Alleghany-Whig antecedents.
7reasurer-Phillip Dorsheimer, OF
Erie-Democratic antecedents.
Canal Commissioners. N. Chaplin
of Albany.
State Prison Inspector-David p.
Forest, of Schenectady.
Judge of Appeals-Henry E. Davies
of New York.
The platform adopted is purely Re-
publican, and must command the re-
spect of every liberal minded man in
the State. The Resolutions on all the
great issues before the people are full
and satisfactory. No effort was made
to compromise with the Americans for
the purpose of catching their votes.
The platform was straight out Repub-
lican, and nothing else. We think
there can be no doubt Of the election
of the entire ticket.

THE RIGHT MAN.-The Republicans
of Ohio have done very shrewd thing
in inviting Hon, Abram Lincoln to re-
ply to the several speeches of Senator
Douglasin Ohio. Douglas never seems
half so great man as the mob affects
to think him, after his speeches have
been dissected by this able opponent.
Mr.. Lincoln is most effective COM
mentator upon that specious dema-
gogism that constitutes all Mr.. Douglas
present stock in trade. After having
read all the Illinois Senatorial canvass
speeches it has been standing wonder
with us how Mr.. Douglas ever found
enough property to popular sovereignty
to get it copyrighted. Mr.. Lincoln
will speak at Columbus, Ohio, on the
10th inst, and at Cincinnati on the 18th.

DEMOCRATIC HARMoNY.-At Schen-
ectady, New York, at the Democratic
caucus last Wednesday, the " Hards'
and "Softs" abandoned the ballots and
took to blows. The lights were extin-
guished, this ballot-box broken, coats
torn, eyes assailed and very ungentle-
manly language used. The cream Of
the melee consisted in fight in the
dark, between two distinguished
/" Hards" who mutually pummeled
each other under the erroneous impress
sion that they were whipping a Gag
german !"

ILLINOIS IN 1S60.-The Chicago
Press d. Tribune, at the conclusion of
an elaborate consideration of the po-
litical condition in Illinois says: We
repeat, the Republican party of Illinois
is unit, and that its triumph in 1860,
by an overwhelming majority, is just
as certain as that year will come
round"

DOUGLAS IN OHIo.-It has been
stated that Senator Douglas proposes
to make several speeches in Ohio in a
few days. The political significance
of this is said to be that he and Pugh
have coalesed to carry Ohio, and re-
elect Pugh to the Senate and secure
Ohio delegates for Douglas at Charles
ton.

HE WAY DIFFERENT NATIONS TRAvEL--A recent English writer thus sketches the way different nations travel
 "Of the Germans, he says they travel much and well, but they are ponderous in research and learning, deep in statistics and analogies, and care little for the lighter touches which brighten and shadow the life of man. The Spaniard seldom moves abroad except in his own land. The Russ travels luxurously and automatically Luxury is his recreation poll tics his study The Frenchman, with his Lan- guage spoken, his customs and manners adop- ted, by one-third of the civilized world, is perhaps, least ofall men, a cosmopolitan-is the last at home among foreigners he the least comprehends or understands the character or characteristics of another people. Heis poor traveller, and worse colonst. The Ameri- can is thus sketched: "No steam engine jour neys more fercely, or with more rapidity than our kinsmen across the Atlantic. In doing a certain number of miles, certain number of museums, cities, rivers, ruins, mountains, churches, in a certain number of weeks or months, he whips the whole world His sue cess in checking tavern bills, the skill with which he manages guides and post boys, the energy with which he surmounts difficulties the perseverance with which he writes himself every day, and and at all times United States citizen, are truly wonderful His feet are un- tiring, his will unrelaxing-yet we cannot hold out to him the hand of fellowship or recognize in him the spirit of travel He is smart trav- eller, a regular go-ahead; but we find in his tracks little of the sentiment the taste, or heart fitness which are essentials of the gentle.

The Dragons Song.

The following song, highly popular around the amp-ires of the Dragons, was composed by Lieu enant Anderson, 1st Dragons. It parody on he favorite old song "Some Love to Roam," with the same air:
 sabre bright, is my delight,
 And steed tAat loves the lea, A hardy band at a word's command The life of Dragoon free. Now stirrups all, at the bugle's call, We're over the prairie wide, While every bound o'er the Indian ground :, Is pulse to our rowing pride. At set of sun, when our march is done, Bright burns the bivouac, A song we troll and pledge the bowl, Here's health to our friends aback. The bending sky is our canopy,
 And the turf shall pillow be, No city clown in his bed of down,
 Sleeps half so sweet as we. Tho wary foe full we'll we know,
 And the path to his secret hold No threat nor want the heart shall daunt, Of the Dragoon brave and bold. With yell and groan'whon the fray comes on, And the glorious charge rings out, On on we sweep like the angry deep, crash and the foeman's rout No care have we for a ship at sea,
 Nor the miser's hoardsd store, steed and sword is the Dragoon's word He cares not tot for more. With these, my boys, and the maid that joys In the love of our heart so true, I We'll live and roam OCT our prairie home, Till deaths bugle sounds tattoo.
