sW James T. Brady, the eloquent
and patriotic Democratic lawyer OF
New York, says, in one of his recent
speeches, that the Copperheads decor
ate their persons with coin valued at
one cent, because that is a fair esti-
mate of the value OF their principles.
He thought, however, that injustice
was done to the cent.

RAILWAYS REGULATING PILLS are the
only Family Cathartic that purge without depe-
ton, without producing after-constipation, and
compelling a perpetual resort to the medicine.
They operate more rapidly than any drastic min
eral purgative, never occasion tenesmus, and in
auence simultaneously the stomach, the bowels,
the liver and the circulation. No form of indI-
gestion, biliousness or intestinal diseases, can
withstand its alternative and corrective operation.
RAILWAYS CIRCULATING PILLS are the
purest and best purgatve 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
hausted body.

THE ONLY PURGATIVE.
RAILWAYS PILLS are the only purgatives
that can be continued for length of time in the
treatment of Chronic Rheumatism, GouI, Enlarge
ment of the Spleen, Enlargement aud Iorpidy of
the Liver and diseases induced from the excessive
use of Calomel, Mercury, Quinne, &c.
The use of the comman drastic Purgatiye 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 a 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 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. occasioned from the
imperfect action Of the Pills, irritating the coats
of the intestnes, purgng only the contents of the
bowels. It's the absence of the bile and other
humors that causes the gripping. THIS is not SC

OUR SCHooL.-Its expense compared
soith the expense Of the common schools
Of Cass County for the gear 1862.
From the report of the Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction, furnished
for our columns by his deputy Mr.. G..
B. Stebbins, we learn that the whole
number of scholars attending school
in this county for the school year 1862,
was 5.Sl6, and that the expenses of the
schools, aside from Primary School
fund and nonresident tuition, was
S4,4l6.63, or 1911 per scholar. The
average length of the schools was GA
(six and four tenths) months, making
the cost per scholar forty two cents per
month.
The whole number attending our
school during that year, was SOL, and
the expenses of the school, aside from
Primary School fund and nonresident
tuition, was Sl,5l4.19 or 1882 per
scholar. Our school was in session
nine months, making the cost per schol-
ar forty-tsoo cents per month.
The whole number enrolled in our
school this year is AGO, and the expen-
ses will notvary much from S2463-from
this sum deduct, say 1925, which is
probably too small a sunny for the Pri.
mary School fund and 1926 for non-res.
ident tuition and we have $l9l3, the
expenses for the year, which is less
than forty-taco cents per scholar pei
month. Unless our teachers are poore,
than the teachers of the County aver
age we have no reason to complain OF
the expenses of our school.

The winds howl their notes in a strange sounding

Streams overfowing flush down their rough beds,

Poor flowers.
Next is poem "inscribed to my

ten by young girl, her first effort, with
the request to publish "just to encour-

We give two specimen verses:

Remember loved one, though Pm absent

:" A lone woman" thus sets forth her
grief. We give two verses:
What though the heart with grief is wrung,

That's swallowed health, and home aud child,
The present gloomy dark and chill
Where care and want must work their will,
Will death draw forth it's venomed sting
And DER the whole oblivion fling?
All no, the dead, or not the dead,
Though buried deep in link or lead
The folded hands no more should toll,
The brain no longer throb or moil;
truly know that is not rest,
For this wild grief that heaves my breast;
This spirit sprite or what you please,
That suffers, thinks and longs to cease.

Mary" from which we take one verse
Oh, come, my loved one. come away!
