az Edward Everett, who has al
ways been regarded as the embodiment
of conservatism, shows in the light of
hoistory, and by the admission of the
rebels themselves, that they had been
plotting this rebellion for one genera.
ton, and that while the rebellion might
possibly have been postponed for four
or eight years, it could not have been
avoided yet the sympathizers with re-
bells seek to justify themselves by the
clamor that the friends and supporters
of the administration are responsible
for the rebellion. Edward Everett was
run on the same ticket with Bell, who
proved traitor, but is himself patri-
OF, and his Grafton furnishes additional
evidence of the fact, that there is at
this time no difference among true 10y
al men. They all unite in giving a
cordial support to the Federal Govern
ment.

GREAT UNION MEETING.-On Mon
day last, New York city again raised
her voice in commanding tones, from
Union Square, just as she did two
years ago at the same place, on the oo-
casion of the memorable uprising of the
people in response to the first call of
the President for troops for the sup
preston of the rebellion. There was
less outward enthusiasm on this ocoa-
sion, perhaps, than there was then, but
it is within the bonds of truth to saw
that there was no abatement of the de-
termination, or the courage, or the pa
triotism which sought expression from
the great body of the people. The
crowd was immense; some say it must
have numbered full twenty thousand.
The weather threatened rain storm
all the afternoon, but fortunately it was
only threat.

ICINE In THE WORLD.

In cases of Bilious Collie, Inflammation Of tho

RAILWAYS REGULATING PILLS are the
only Family Cathartic that purge without deple-
ton, without producing after-constipation, and
compelling perpetual resort to the medicine.
They operate more rapidly than any drastic min

huence simultaneously the stomach, the bowels,
the liver. and the circulation. No form of indl-
gestion, biliousness, or intestinal diseases, can
withstand its alternative and corrective operation.
RAILWAYS CIRCULATING PILLS are the
purest and best purgatiye medicine known to med
ical science. While they purge from the system all
diseased and corrupt humors, they impart nour-
ishment, vitality, and quiet the suffering and ex-

RAILWAYS PILLS are the only purgatives
that can be continued for length of time in the
treatment OF OurOnlc hIeutndtlSiu, OOut,
ment of the Spleen, Enlargement and Torpidy of
the Liver, and diseases induced from the excessive
use of Calomel, Mercury, Quinine, &c.
The use of the comman drastic Purgative pills
in these diseases, should be avoided, especially
those that occasion great pain. gripping, spasms,
nausea, sickness, in such cases, if the stools are
examined, they will be found to be light brown
ish color, or thin and watery. These discharges
do no good, but on the contrary leave the patient
weak and the bowels costive.
1t is a fatal error to suppose that because dose
of pills grippe you excessively, and that after a
powerful evacuation you feel weak, that the grip
ing is sign that you are relieved from some dis
eased humors. The gripping is occasoned from the
imperfect action Of the Pills, irritating the coats
of the ntestines purging only the contents of the
bowels. 1t is the absence of the bile and other
humors that causes the gripping. This is not so
with RAILWAYS PILLS Their influence is ex-
tended over the entire system-Liver Stomach,
Bowels, Kidneys, and all the secretons regu-
lated and controlled by these PILLS. hence grip

WINE 4! (! +!

From the earliest ages wine has been known and
esteemed one of the choicest productions of the
earth. IT is rendered proverbial in Scripture In
the present age good wine'is not only valued as
luxury, but there several kinds which are held
in high estimation by the medical profession, and
form a valuable commodity in every good dispen-
sary. In Europe there upwards of fifty differ
ent kinds of wine, obtained from as many different
kinds of grapes. But it has remained for modern
science and skill to produce luxurious ond de-
lightful wine from medical plants and roots. The
object has been fully accomplished in an article
called DR.. HALSEY'S FOREST WINE. From a
formula of roots, plants etc., of the highest medi-
cal order, is here reduced pure wine, equal if
not superior, in favor to any imported, at the same
time retaining all the virtues of one of the best
medical formulas ever known,
No invalid can objectto take the Forest Wine on
account of dsagreeabe taste, and none can take it
without being convinced of its great value as a
medical agent. From our own experience we can
vouch for the excellence of this wine and trust
that every one, whose health is in the least i'm
paired, will read DR.. 'Halsey's advertisement.
