McLEAs 4 CoRDIAI~--As may be seen, we insert
this week the advertisement Of McLean's Cordial,
ke.
It very we'll known that We are not particular
iy favorable to patent medicines, and, general
thing, eschew the whole Of them with bat little
ceremony, and with these sentiments declined
inserting this advertisement until we knew what
were the ingredients Of the medicine, and how
compounded. This We have learned, and believing,
as We do, that the ingredients are good, and the
compound judioiously made, we recommend il
mixture worthy Of public confidence.
The above is from the st. Louis Christian AdYo-
cate, edited by the celebrated Rev. DR.. McAnally,
which speaks volumes in favor of McLean's Cor
dial. We say to all, try it. See advertisement.

oLEx CLuB.-An interesting feature Of the
exercises at the meeting of the Republican
Club, on Friday evening, was song from
the Republican Glee Club, composed OF
Messrs. DE Wolf, Gage, and others. They
were prepared to sing only one song, but
that was agood one. The fac. that Toombs
had not yet called the roll Of bis piggsrs on
Bunker Hill; and that other fact that the
Sumner outrage had demonstrated that the
logic OF blows would only convert freemen
into foes, we're alluded to very neatly. The
Glee Club Ii expected TO be in attendance II
the weekly meetings Of the Republican Club.

WHAT GDRUNKARD MEANs.--Lest I
SHOULD seem to claim too much for the name
or God and thus lose all, I will take q few
illustrations and show that the names Of all
things designate our notions Of those things,
and that the name enlarges in proportion
as our notions enlarge For example,
What is meant by the word edrunksrd"
it is q name; aud what is implied in this
name? To the untbinking it means moth.
ing more than a worthless, disreputable,
despicable wretch. To the ramseller it
means a poor, ragged, thirsty customer,
who brings his pay in small sums; who is
always profane, and always welcome when
he has money. But to his family, what
different meaning the name Of adrunkard"
has! 1t means faithless husband, q bru.
tai father, an everlasting shame, and per-
petual dread.
And what does this word "drunkard"
mean to the thinking man, the philanthro-
pist, and the Christian? It means viola
tor of the laws of health and decency; an
offender against the duties and charities of
home negleeter and despiser Of morality
and religion; a blot, stain and burden;
a living libel on his race; an outcast from
the decencies of life; apoor pitiable often
der, who is destroying every fair thing in
his body and soul, and, while bringing
bushes and tears to the eyes aud cheeks Of
all about him, is preparing his bed in hell.
