DIARRHEA.-We re- publish a recipe for

ministercd it to. More than a score of sol
diers have carried vial OF it back to the
army from this nlncA and Ia : Iaraa nos.,.

istering it with entire and almost immediate
success. A soldier OF the 9th, weak and
pale, stopped at the American House two
weeks since-Chronic Diarrhea was the
matter. We saw him, gave him one swal-
low Of the medicine, and the next morning
he told us he "got up" once only during
the night-his g calls" before had been
from five to twelve in one night His eyes
were bright-the pressure Of his hand was
big reward to us-he procured vial of
the infallible, of NEWELL, and went on his
way rejoicing. Let every soldier and sol.

The Suspension.
The Presidents suspension Of the writ of
Ha6eas Corpus is regarded by the present
dominant party as the grandest coup d.
etat that has seen the light since the days
of the last FariShn effort to lock up Liberty
and guard her with bayonets. 1t is strange
that the American people have been so &C.
silly indoctrinated with the despotic ideas
Of ages past, but We don't see how we can
help it now. The current of admiration
for strong central government seems to
have set in and it is the business of all
'loyaP men to waive their individual rights
for the general good" Our courts TO- day
might as we'll be closed. No precept can
issue from them that . military officer is
bound to respect. A plea Of Federal au-
thority derived from the Presidents Procla.
nation Of suspension, upsets all our lawyers
know of Coke, Blackstone, the Constitu.
ton of the United States or Statutes made
in pursuance thereof Provost Marshals
are the lawyers Of the hour. Chief Justice
MARSHALL, if alive, would be obliged to 81.
lence Webster or Clay should they plead
in behalf of an ar rested citizen.

Political Discussions.

Political Discussions.
The people of Elkader and vicinity were
entertained by political discussions on
Wednesday and Thursday evenings of last
week.
Messrs. Hunt and Gilchrist occupied
Wednesday evening. Mr.. Hunt in his
usual gentlemanly style, made an elegant
speech advocating vigorous prosecution
Of the war, and laying aside party politics
at this time, quoting at length from Doug.
las and other Democratic authors.
Closing his remarks by saying that il
Mr.. Hammer should satisfy the people that
he would represent them better then he
would, they ought to vote for him.
Mr.. Gilchrist made a short speech after
Mr.. Hunt; he announced to the audience
that he was before them as q candidate
unsolicited on his part, but that at this time
he considered it duty which every one
owed to serve bis country, in whatever man.
ner he might be called upon to do so; he
did not vote for Lincoln, did not approve
all Of his acts, but was always for his coun-
try-was for vigorous prosecution Of the
war, for the maintenance Of the Union
and in favor Of State action for the benefit
Of the. commercial interests of the North
West. On the whole it was very credit.
able speech. Thursday evening Mr.. Ham
mer spoke. He made strong and power.
full speech occupying the entire evening
he showed concius,veiy who are, ana VINO
have been the true Union men, occasionally
interspersing his speech with several sar.
casms uron some of the Republican lea
ders, Gov. Kirkwood and Joe. Eibock in
particular, and quotations from the N. Y.
Tribune and other radical Republicans
which, from the way they were by Repub-
licans present received, showed that they
had their effect. This speech Of Mr.. Ham.
mars was one long to be remembered by
the large audience who heard him, and one
which his opponent will not soon be able to
answer. 7.
