Headache, and Bilious Fevers. indeed
for the whole class Of diseases originate
Ing In hillary arrangement, caused by
the Malarta Of Afasmatie Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity: Such remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" expels the miasmatic poison Of FRvkK
AND AGuR from the system, and prevents the de-
velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap-
proach Of its premonitory symptoms. Iii not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints. but also the cheapest. The large
quantity we supply for dollar brings it within the
reach of every body; and in bilious districts where
FEVER AND AauE prevails, every body should
have it and use it freely both for and protec-
ton. great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermittents is that it contains Qunne
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as il
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Aguc is not alone the consequence Of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of dissr-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rhsumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, Ioothache, Ea,ache, Cata,yh, Asthma, Pal
pitation, Painful Al sction Of the Spleen, Uyster-
ics, Pain tn tie Bo,oels, Colo, Paralysis and De-
rangenseat Of the Stomach, all of which, when
type, or become periodical. This " CuRR " exrels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or Temporarily
residing in the maarious districts. If taken occa.
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis
ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec.
ton than cure and few will ever suffer from Inter.
mttents il they avail themselves Of the protectioe
this remedy affords. n.

SPoNa1sa.- have in our midst class
of people who are accustomed to consider .
paper as being of very little value and that
by subscribing for one they are entitled to
everything that comes out of the Office.
Many of our Weekly subscribers, who pay
$3.50 per year for their news, appear to con-
slider the daily as being thrown in to boot,
and will come to our Office and sponge one
every time important news arrives.
We are now paying over twenty dollars
week for dispatches. All extra dispatches
cost extra, and it will be seen that if we fur
nish our daily papers to people for nothing
it will not take long to run the thing into the
ground. It's fact worthy of notice that
the people who patronize US the least, require
the most of US, while men who advertise lib
orally and are subscribers to our daily, nevel
think of begging an extra or paper.

OUTRAGEOUS, IF TRuE.-We learn that
certain constable in this city, recently went
into the dwelling of poor Irish woman in
South Muscatine, and seized the only stove
there was in the house to satisfy some claim
or bill of sale held by parties doing business
on Second street. The woman was at the
time confined to her bed by sickness, and yet
her destitute and helpless condition, together
with the circumstances of her family and
neighbors, produced no impression upon the
officer or his employer, and the stove was re-
moved thus leaving sick mother and fami
" of children without the means of cooking
their food or q fire to keep them warm. We
caa hardly believe that there are men in our
city who, even if they had the legal right, are
hard hearted and brutal enough to be guilty
of an act of this kind. The affair will soon
under 20 legal investigation, when the facts
Of the case will be submitted to the public.
