c|>HEAD4cHE is the fivorite sign by which
ture makes known any deviation whatever from
the natural state of the brain, and viewed in lS1
light it may be looked on as safeguard intended
to give notice of disease which might otherwise
escape attention, till too late to be remedied; and
its indications should never be neglected. Head
aches may be classified under two names. viz
Symptomatic and Idiopathic. Symptomatic Head
ache is exceedingly common and is the precursor
of a great variety of diseases, among which are
Apoplexy, Govt Rheumatism and all iebre dis
cases. In its nervous form it is sympathetic OF
disease Of he stomach constituting Sick Headache,
of hepatic disease constituting Bilious Headache.
Of worms, constipation and other disorders Of he
bowels, as we'll as renal and uterine affections
Diseases of the heart very frequently attended
with Headaches; Armenia and plethora are also
affections which frequently occasion headache
ldiophatic Headache is also very common, being
usually distinguished by the name Of Nervous
Headache, sometimes coming on suddenly in u
state Of apparently sound health and prostrating al
once the mental and physical energies, and in 9th
er instances it comes on slowly, heralded by de-
preston Of spirits or acerbity of tempr. In most
instances the pain is in the front of the head,
one both eyes. and sometimes provoking volnit-
ing; under this class may also be named Neural.ia
For the treatment IF either class of Headache
the Cephac Pills have been found a sure and safe
remedy. relieving the most acute pain in few
minutes, and by lis subtle power ersdfcating .hc
diseases OF which Headache is the unersiDg index.

Constipation or Costi.eness.

No one Of the "many ills flesh is heir to" Is SO
prevalent, SO little understood, and SO much neg
lected as Costveness. Often originating in care

slight disorder of too liue consequence Z: -

companion Of many Of the most fatal and Danger
Gus diseases, and unless early eradicatcd it will
bring the sufferer to untmely grave. Among
the lighter evils Of which costiveness is the usual
attendant are Headache. Collie. rheumatism Fou
Breath, Piles and others Of like nature, while
long train of frghttul diseases such as Malignant
Fevers, Abcesses, Dysentary, Diarrhna, Dyspepsia.
Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hys,eria, Hypo-
chondriasis, Melancholy and Insanity first indicate
their presence in The system by this alarming symp-
tom. Not unfrequentIy the diseases named oris.

existence unless the cause is eradcated in an early

that the disorder should receive immediate attcn.

It appears to be the special business OF diplo
matte officers under the Lincoln Administration
to write letters to newspapers. Consul General
Giddinps, Of Canada, has followed the example
of Cassius M. Clay, and has written letter
to the New York Tribune, in which be makes
four points;
/. That slaves are bellig erents. and may be
lawfully captured and set tree, or disposed of al
the will Of the Executive. II ..I.t
g. That il Is the duty Of all loyal citizens to
induce slaves to leave their masters.
g. That Il is the duty of the. Executive, and
all Executive Officers, to aid, assist and encour.
age slaves who have escaped, to maintain their
liberty. tc
4. That to send back fugitive slave TO q
rebel master would be to render aid and as
sIstance to the rebels, and therefore subject
q man to Indictment and punishment as irai.
tor. p
Mr.. Giddings, as O private citizen and an
avowed abolitionist, might write such letter,

Canada has any business TO publish his opinions
on matters pertaining TO Government policy In

nary times Il might be regarded wise proceed.

and we are asked If We are for the subjugation
Of the South 2 There 10 no danger Of subIuga-

ed. We should not object TO the subjugaton of
20 me people in the South-tbey need it. Let
this 70 on for while, and the people Of the
South will subjugste those who need subiugG-
tion, and thero are eeme people North who will
be subjugated too. Whole schools OF dema-
gogues in both sections will 60 down before
this revolution is over. It must be settled, and
those who provoked II, or originated IL, will
never settle IL. We don't think much of this
war. Il is only an act in the drama, necessary
now, perhaps; but II will settle nothing
Neither section of the Union will do what 1t
does not choose TO do, in coSsequenoe Of present
events. Men must get tired before they get
cool, and they are In fair way to get very
tired. Thousands South have been taught by
their brsggart leaders that they could just whip
the North into terms In short order. They
can't do 1t, and they will find that out, and
what will become Of these braggarts2
| Then there are Northern fools that are going
to conquer or exterminate the South; that can't
be done either. They are miserable incompe-
tents on both sides, not fl to be trusted with
the interests Of nations. m ~,
The people Of the United States have no
cause 10 quarrel. They are mot enemles--it's q
lie their polIiicians have told them. They are
fighting on that lie, and they will fnd 1t out,
70 the cost of those who have told It. The
whole settlement comes after this interiude Of
war, which will settle nothing, except that both
sides have been cheated BY men they trusted.

Enron ONO STArEsMAN:-The mortifysng
experience we have recently had, Of the insuffi-
cient means, usually given to our Union Govern
ment, to maintain ltS proper powers, will very
readily gain consent that that government shall
have larger military force in time of peace.
In passing from one extreme of having conceded
too little, some will incliue to the opposite ex-
treme Of granting too much. And men who do
not understand our well balanced system Of
State governments and Of Union Government,
may talk of .faeins the old Colonial Geography,
aud Of vsmouing State po,U:r and creating na-
tionalty. They might as well talk Of dispens
ing with towns, cities and counties, as talk of
dispensing with State powers.
We have always had the Nationality, which
some Of the New York presses seem now to
advocate, and that Nationality needs no further
powers which are complete and ample. IL has
the sole power of peace and war abroad-and
| the power of suppressiDg insurrection and rebel
lion at home-tbe sole power of regulating
commerce and Of maintaining uniformity OF
values In trade. With all these, the States have
nothing to do, though very prone to meddling by
giving partisan advice, and the exercise of these
| great powers over 80 large country as ours
will give full employment to one Executive. and
full occupation to one Legislature.
| The State powers, which relate to the daily
business of the people in their domestic rela-
tions, are wisely lodged with the States, where
these powers can be brought into exercise by
the people themselves, through tn ir special
representatives. The States have exclusive
power over the laws OF husband and wife, pa
rent and child, master and servant, and over
the laws of property and contract; they have
exclusive power over all offenses against these
rights, and over all regulations for the public
security and public health.
Who supposes that theee State powers can be
taken away and lodged ip one central govern
ment, with any possible nope Of success In the
administration Of them2 Ifany one thinks so.
he has not duly considered that governments
are the results OF time and experience, aud that
they take their form and their growth to suit
the people and their wants. The State Govern.
ments and the Union Government are the COM
plements Of each other, aud In their copjoint
action they make one nstion-securiDg national
protection to every citizen, wherever he may be,
and the enjoyment of complete municipal rights,

Ex.Postmaster General Holt, and the
State Journal.


The Journal is In extaeies over the very able
letter of this distinguished Democrat, and says.
"what makes it best Of all, it is unquali6edls
Union in sentiment" That 10 right. Mr..
HoLr is not like the recently appointed Gen
BANKs, who In certain contingency is willing
to "let the Union slide" Whether Secretary
CAMERON appointed Mr. BANKS to high position
in the army, from which he could observe the
proper time to let the Union sllde," We are no,
informed; time will tell.
Mr.. HoLTS letter is certainly very able and
patriotic production. 1t is cheering to see the
Journal so pleased with 1t; but from reading
the document we are fully impressed with the
idea that Mr.. HoLr would instantly repudate the
following sentiment expressed some time since
by the JoEyaal: 'I si5.1isfl
We started out by saying the impression that Democratic

We cannot conceive how II is that the Jour.
nal can indorse Mr.. HoLr's letter. II Is COM
pletely in the face of the Jouyngrs expressed
opinions. We insist that our Union is not an
" unnatural compact" and that Il has not or
will not be thrown aside by the people, II they
are but true to the principles upon which 1t was
formed by our forefathers. Ills perfectly true,
that IL the doctrines advocated by the disunion
secessionists of the South, like the Charleston
Mercury, and the abolition disunionists Of the
North, like the Journal, are to be sustained by
the people. then, indeed, must our Union be dis
solved. Bat we have an abiding faith that the
good Unionloving people, North and South, will
soon give these fanatics to understand that they
will not stand quietly by and see their govern
ment destroyed, that they may carry ont their
schemes Of self-aggrandizement. at.
The Charleston MeSerry and is followers
want to break up the Union because they don't
want to live with the abolltionists, and the
Journal and It's followers want to dissolve the
Union because they dislike slavery. Between
them, we regre. to say. they are making more
headway than we desire. ,e. esd
