THE EDGEF1ELD & KENTUCKY RAILRoAD.-In our
issue of last week, we had occasion to notice the
unjust discrimination shown by the E. & X. Rail-
road between the attaches of the Chronicle and
JeIersonan Offices, and reflected With severi-
ty upon Mr. Hack the conductor. Weare satisfied
that all we said upon the subject is strictly true,
Notwithstanding the seeming denial of our neigh
Dor Of the Jeffersonian. We have, however, re-
ceved some information from a friend that leads
us to think that our structures would have been
more just if applied to the old officers of the road,
instead of Mr.. Hack, and we therefore make this
explanation, not desiring to do any man injustice.
We reiterate all that we have said so far as the old
managers of the road are concerned As to the
present managers, we know nothing, from actual
experience, but We suggest that they adopt some
uniform rule on the subject, and either charge all
editors or pass all of them free.

whose success has been more marked, or more de-
served, than that of Howell Blackman Il Co.. Com

with heavy established opposition to contend
against, yet by determined energy, close attention
to business and the interests of their patrons they
have already built up extensive business, which
is daily growing larger.
Our friend, Dick Howell has been in the house
since its commencement, and to his efforts is mainly
due its success. He is now the sole acting partner
and he devotes himself exclusively to the business

peA- How strange and wonderful it often seems
to us, that medicine, composed of simple plants,
should certainly search out and cure disease How
surprising that the "Indians" should know and pre-
serve so long, and well, secret that has escaped
the search of the greatest physcivns the world has
ever known. France, England and America have
furnished physicians of brilliant intellects gentle
men of wealth and education, who devoted their
time money and talents to discover remedies to
cure Veneria Diseases, and while they succeeded in
founding magnificent hospitals, and in a measure
curing these complaints, their cures were neither
speedy OF permanent. The profession until the dis
covery Of the "Cherokee Remedy"-have always
followed in their footsteps dosing the patient with
nauseous drugs and poisonous minerals. This Great
l"Remedy" was discovered by "Border Ruffian'
Missourian among the Cherokee Indians. 1t is a
pleasant and delicious syrup, compounded from the
simple plants that grow in their old avorite "huut-
ing grounds" 1t is an unfaing 'Remedy" for the
cure of GonorrhGa elect and all similar complaints
purifying the blood and killing the latent principle
of disease before the 'angel of death" should have
time to deposit the poisoned arrow in the system
1t comes to the afflicted 'pale face" with healing
works of mercy on its wings, TO which, worn dowr
exhausted, dissipatea detected and despairng thou
sands-weeping in bitterness, and exclaiming, alas
alas as they saw the sweet cup of life falling from
their lips, and the waves of anguish dashing higl
over their souls-now owe to this Great "Remedy'
their very existence. See new advertisement il

bSr Our Community was deeply saddened, on
Thursday 2ist inst, by the announcement of the
death Of Mr.. WILLIAM WATKINS, at Moore's Hotel,
in this CITY
Mr.. Watkins was a native OF Tod county, Ky.
where he lived till he attained to manhood; but for
some four or FIVE years past he has resided most of
the time in GAINESVILLE, and made it, we believe,
his home His disease was that fell destroyer con-
sumption; and he was the seventh victim to it. in
family of nine childen. Up to few months ago,
his health was very good and little did he or those
with whom he participated eagerly in the en-
Ijoyment of life then link that he would so soon
be summoned to
''The undiscovered country from whose bourn
No traveller returns---"
He had recovered from a severe sickness, at his
brothers, in Logan county, and came here, about a
month ago, apparently restored TO the health; but
in few days he was taken down again. and grew
worse very rapidly His mother was with him
throughout his las. illness, and he was comforted
and solaced by her constant and devoted attention
His numerous friends and acquaintance, in the
city, too rendered him every needed attention. and
did all in their power to alleviate his sufferngs-
He was cut off from life in its very bloom, being
only in his oath year; but he will not soon be for
gotten. He was young man of attractive socia
qualities ardent and sincere in his attachments anC
capable of inspiring warm friendships for himself
His body borne from the Hotel to the Railroad
depot, on Friday morning, followed by numerou
concourse of his young friends, and was conveyed
by rail, to Todd county, to be buried there wher,
so many of his kindred were already sleeping tn

GENERAL QUARLEs.

This gentleman has announced himself candi-
date subject to the approval of the Union party Of
this district. he has served but one term, yet in
that time he has effected much for his district
than can generally be done by a new member, in
his first term. BY his industry his application to
business and his minute knowledge Of the wants Of
his constituents he succeeded in eIecng tho passage
Of several measures of immediate interest to them
and to him likewise is due the credit of other acts
of Congress of general public interest.
: In the matter Of appropriations of money by
Congress, Cen Quarles was particularly watchful,
anil we may mention two or three cases in which
his vigilance resulted in large savings to the gov
ernment. Sc, eral years ago an appropriation of
$4,000 was made in the Navy estimates to pay a
vessel for carrying supplies to the lighthouses on
the coast Of Oregon and California, for one gear
The government was then establishing its light
houses and coast deenses there and the service of
the company owning the vessel was pretty heavy
during that year; but since then it has amounted
70 but little IL anything more than carrying oil to
the lighthouses, and yet Congress has continued to
pay them this $4,000 every year since When
the Naval bin came up at the late session. General
Quares noticed this appropriation, and, referring to
the original law, discovered the blunder, and had
this item reduced to $4,000.
In this same Naval bill there was an appropria-
tion of s25o,ooo for Coast Surveys thing Con-
gress has been throwing away money on, for forty
years, This appropriation our representative moved
to reduce to 81 100000, and succeeded-thus saving
to the government $4,000 in the appropriations
of one bill.
Through his exertions too, Tea and Coffee were
III bill. It was estimated to raise 100000 Of
revenue by the tax on these two articles, and by
striking them out, that amount is saved to the con
sinners
There are other measures OF INTERESTINGLY as
making the Court of Clams--now lobby business
IA permanent Bench with salaried Judges; the
bill relating to our Tobacco interests abroad, &c.
which he had undertaken, but hadn't time to con-
hEumate.
We have yet to hear any expression of dissatis
faction with Gen. Quarles course in Congress- an(
this being So and considering his signal service
there both to the Nation and his district, we hav
Nno doubt that the Union party of the district vii
nominate and elect him for further service.
With due respect for the opinions of amy VIII
may differ with MS, zoe think denomination is du
to him. 1t has been customary heretofore and
emnently proper in this case as ar endorsement o
Gen. Quarles course, in the last Congress.

not more than 90 minutes elapsed before the spa
