SMALL ERUrrIoNs often cause obstinate sores,
and fightful ulcers They should always be
taken in time. An ounce Of prevention is
worth pound Of cure. Remember that.these
eruptions can be checked and cured by Curtis
Original Mamaluke Lniment. Il should be
applied Immediately, and will be found to act
like charm. This is . fact already well
known. Those who have given it a trial con-
slider it the best article Of the kind to be had.
It should be kept constantly in the house, as by
having it always ready at hand, mnch suffering
may be prevented, and the years expenses will
show an astonishing saving in the way Of doc
tors bills.
BeaSin mind that Curtis Compound Syrup Of
Sassafras is becoming the most popular RENE

UNDER THE HAY.-The Washington
correspondent of the New York Evening
Post writes
Senator Davis is greatly relieved by
the passage Of his entire set of rssolu-
tons upon Slavery, and thinks he has
upset Mr.. Douglas haycraft. At one
time on Friday afternoon he was much
downcast at the success of Clingman's
resolution, declaring that no Intervention
of Congress to protect Slavery in the
Territories is at this time necessary. This
additional resolution was carried by the
Republican vote, added to that of MeSsrs.
Bigler, Clingman. Toombs and Andrew
johnson. The moment the resolution
was carried the Republican Senators saw
their mistake-that it was really none Of
their business to mix into this family
quarrel upon purely political resolutions !;
and, on motion of Mr.. Wilson, the vote
on the resolution was reconSidered, and
upon second trial it fell to the ground.
and the unbroken series were passed. II
the United States Senate were only the
American people, Mr.. Douglas would be
pretty nearly friendless and, as it is,
it is very hard to see how it is possible
for him to make any Roadway in the face
of such tremendous opposition. He is
still very confident, however, and expects
much help from the South. The idea
that the New York delegation will change
from him is secuted and the moment he
believes they contemplate treschery be
will allow his name to be withdrawn and
instantly start the new ticket of Stephens
and Seymour.

BOGUS DELEGAnoNs.-We are always
willing to let by-goues be by-gones, yet
fresh contribution to history is some
tunes worth having, in spite of so good
maxim. For this reason We copy from
the Philadelphia Inquirer an item in
Which many persons will be Interested,
% throwing light on q dark subject, pre-
missing that the Detroit Free Press is a
Democratic journal, and not very good
authority at that:
Upon this point we refer to certain
statements Of the Free Press as to the
( delegates who voted as representatives Of
Texas. and q delegation which was inten-
dsd to represent Georgis, but which BY
accident failed to get to the Convention.
IL charged that the Texans were com.
mlssloned at meeting held at Grand Hs.
vsn' IN the State Of Michigan, one Of them
oelng keeper of lager beer saloon in that
town, another the County Clerk of Otta'
wa county. third the editor of q news
paper In Allegan. all in thst State; and
tne fourth resident Of Canada, who il
not now and neSN was . citizen of the
United States. But. surprising as this is
tSe programme for GeOrgis published il
tas Free Press. rather excels it. 1t sp
pears IN this that an old gentleman namec
bennlng. also Of Grand Haven. Michigan
