ment Of an attack immediate relief from pain

They seldom fail in removing the Nausea
and Headache towhich females are 80 subject
They act gently upon the bowels remoy-
ing CosiireHss.
For Literary Men, students, Delicate Fe-
males, and all persons Of seieHtarg habiis,
they are valuable as Laraiiue, improving
the appetite, giving tone and rigop 10 the d.
gestiye organs, and restoring their natural
elasticity and strength to the whole system.
The Ccphalic Pills are the result Of long
investigation and carefully conducted exper-
iments, having been in use many years, dur
ing which time they have prevented and re-
lieyed a vast amount Of pain and suffering
from Headache, whether originating in the
aerrous system or O deranged state Of the
stomach. They are entirely vegetable in
their composition, and may be taken at all
times with perfect safety, without making
any change Of diet, and the absence Of any

THE PRoFFERED BRIBE.

In the rebel Congress last week FooTE
OF Mississippi offered series Of resolu-
tions, proposing, among other things,
proclama1ion to the Inhabitants Of the
Northwestern States, Offering to guarantee
the nee navigation Of the Mississippi and
Ohio rivers, if they sein desist from tie fur
uer prosecution Of the arar:
This bribe is being answered by 300
new regiments well stocked with at
tillerY vino propose to guarantee
the free navigation Of the Mis-
sissippi and Ohio rivers" without ask,
ine the permission of the secesh. The
Northwest denies the assumption that 8
mile Of either Of these streams belong t
the rebel congress. a guarantee frou
that quarter would be Of no account. Boti
rivers belong to the Onion from their sour
ces to their outlets, and Union men VII
guarantee their free navigation.
Ii has been 3 fayorite idea on the part G
The secesn to separate Ohio, Indiana, Ill
nois and Iowa from the Union, and attacl
them to the domin,ons Of Davis. Til
Infamous Vallandigham, it may be reco
1ected, introduced q bill into Congres
about the time the cotton States wei
secedipg, which proposed to divide th
Union INTO four parts, Eastern, Western
Southern, and Pacific. His plan was
separate the Northwestern States from th
Eastern and afterwards annex them to tt
dominions Of Davis and extend SLAYER
over them.
We shall waste no words replying to Il
Irsulting proposition Of Foote. There

midst, and from his starting point at
Knoxville, he has passed into the
very centre Of Kentucky without our know
ledge. and with our kno*ledge of his where
abouts, be has successfully invaded, and
probably now holds London, Richmond,
Lexington, Paris. Cynthiana, Boyd, Fall
mouth, Frankfort, compelling the legislature
to adjourn in hot haste, DC, on two I'LL
portant railroad lines, and within little over .
score Of miles from the important cities Of
Cincinnati and Louisville. That Smiths pro-
g1css has been arrested-iF such be the case
is much less due to our armies in the field,
than to the spontaneous uprising Of the
people Of the threatened places for their 0 IN
defense. And low the rebels, for the time
being, have an undisputed feld in the finest
portion OF tine State, and they will fare sump-
tuous1y for while ct least. There are indica-
tiops that Smith will soon be joined BY Buck
ner, Morgan and Cerro Gordo Williams, each
| with 20 incorsidezable force, and thus rein
| forced lie will undertake to push ahead for
the border. Every preparation will doubtless
| be made by Msjor General Lew Wallace, who
| is now in command Of our defenscs, to give
them q proper reception, should the comli led
| rebel force attempt to pass the Ohio River.
The Map which We present above gives the
| lire OF march Of the rebels under Smith, from
knoxville, Tenn, to their present positions
held by them at Lexington, Paris, Cynthiana
Boyd, Frabkport, Sheibyyi1le, &c.

The alarm now felt al along the Ohio River,
from Wheeling to Evansville, from the near
approach OF Kirby Smith and his hordes, is
the natural elimination Of the shameful in
efficiency which has characterized the depart
ment OF Tennessee and Kentucky since Hll-
1eck and Pope LETT for the East and Don Carlos
Buell. has attempted the role Of major geusra1.
All the splendid successes Of the early months
of the 3ea., in that department., have been
neutraiized, "and more too," and the nvcli-
est alarm is nov felt for the great cities along
the banks Of the OHIO, which, until now, have
felt themselves in the enjoyment Of perfect
security. Cincinnati and Louisville have both
been in real danger, aud nothing but the most
| vigorous action Oh the part Of the people Of
those tso cities, has saved them from fal!ing
into tie hands OF the enemy, and their prob
atle destruction. The first immediate cause
| Of alarm was the announcement, some two
| weeks since, that Kirby Smith, with what
| force is not stated, but supposed small.
was at London, Ky, and on the Friday aud
Saturday folio ring news flashes over the wire
Of the important victory gained by him ut
| Richmond, Ky., in the very centre Of that
State. Until news came Of his appearance at
London, no one supposed him within 150
miles of that portion. The last reports placed
| him at or near Knoxville, Tenn., with General
Morgan blockading his advent to Kentucky
| through Cumberland Gap. But the shrewt
| rebel found another road through the mour.
! taine, and suddenly turns up IN ou,
