On Monday evening Rev. samuel Hibben' de-
livered an address before the Philomathean Soci

very patriotic, an argument for the Union, and
couldhaye ebeenappropriately entitled-the- polit
ical history and destiny of the United States.
Forsyth Wilson, Esq. of New Albany, Ind,
addressed the Athenan Society on Tuesday even
ing. Subject-'sHow and what to be-" The
elocution of decorator was somewhat areninder
Of the foot-lghts insomuch that the stage whisper
was totally inaudble to the audience. The sub
ject was treated admirably, in literary taste. The
address abounded in learned illustration and prac-
teal allusions was full of point and pith and lef
on the hearer an earnest desire to be, and nobly
to be, a. true man. ~ ,.ss.ssl =. -,t.E

and we hope to see thems published. The gradu.
ating class of this year, numbering twenty two, in
their performances of Thursday afternoon and

notice would be too long to eEumerate. The Uni

men representing her,
The Board Of Trustees, for financial reasons

The stranger visiting Bloomington at the com

attending the exercises and evincing the best o.
feeling for the prosperity of the University, ant
, will find cordial welcome in that best societ,
which well conducted University always gather

have seen the hand of Coz in all the evenfs that
have marked our progress, and the assurance that
God Is with us, will make us strong and confident

in defense of his land and home, he Is performing
a duty imposed by God, and he Lifts his eye 10
Heaven and prays with faith for the promised &c

They who have access TO the Throne Of Grace
should avail themselves, with earnestness and
fervor Of this high privilege. They should pray
for their sons, and husbands, and kinsman, and
friends by name They should supplicate and in.
tercede for their souls that spiritual blessings be
largely bestowed upon them, ftr their bodies that
they be protected from disease and accident, and
in time of hattie from injury and death. The
prayer Of some pious soul may cause the AL

No one remedy Is louder called for by the
necessities Of the American people than sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Suen
we are now enabled to offer, with o perfect

That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails, Prevention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This "CURB" expels
the Tiiasniatic poison Of FEVER AND AsuR
from the systeip and prevents the develop
ment Of the disease, if taken on the first ap-
proach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t Is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest The large quantity we supply for
a dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AGUE prevails, every body should have It
and use it freely both for cure and protection
It is hoped this price will place II within the
reach Of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of Intermittents is, that it contain
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duces no uuiaistn cg other injurious effect
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are lsts as healthy as if they had never
had the disease. t..-... ..... ....
Fever and Agueis no; alone The consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety OF
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, CatarTh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This " CURE" expcls the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. It is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
fecton, that will be excreted from the system,
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence'it is even more
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Intennittents, II they avail
themselves Of the protection this remedy G-
fords.
