Weakness, Sexual Debility, Nervousness, and
Involuntary Emissions, inducing Impotency,
Consumption, and Mental and Physical Debil-
ty-By ROBERT J. CULVERWELL, NJ. d.
The important fact that the awful conse-
quences of self-abuse may be effectually re-
moved without internal medicine or the dan
gerous application of causties, instruments,
medcated bougies, and other empiracsl devi-
ces is here clearly demonstrated, and the en-
tirely new and highly successful treatment as
adopted by the celebrated author, fully ex-
planned, by means of which every one is ena
bled to cure himself perfectly, and at the least
possible cost, thereby avoiding all the adver-
tised nostrums of the day. THIS Lecture acN
prove a boom to thousands end thousands.

WHAT BECOMES OF THE

within q few weeks they have be-

and Notwithstanding the immcuse
numbers known to be in circula-

ties or else lose in making change.
Brokers demand the unheard OF
premium ,,.of fifteen per cent. for
nickels, and get it too-which only
encourages the people to hold on to
them. We have already mention
ed some of the expedients resorted
to for the purpose of supplying the
place of the insignificant nickels,
but even they give little relief. The
question naturally arises What
becomes of all the pennies? But it
is not 20 easily answered. The
average monthly issue from the
mint is 4,SO0,O00 or 5000 worth.
If the country was overburdened
with this small coin q few months
since, and none have been exported
(Which caunot possibly be the case)
why the present scarcity? We can
not solve the enigma. They must
be laid by somewhere, and those
who have them should at once put
them in circulation. They are in
tended entirely for circulation at
home and the convenience Of the
public, and no good reason can be
urged for speculating in them. AS
there is no apparent cause tor their
scar>ity, we expect to see them
again abundant ere long.-Pitts6urg

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF MA
JoR GENERAL BANKs.-The steamer
Continental faom New Orleans has
brought papers up to the 18th. The
only item of Importance is the ami
nouncement in the .Picaylne of that
date of an attempt to shoot Generl
nj Banks as he was about entering
his carriage at the ladies' entrance
of the City Hotel, about a quarter
past seven o'clock on the evening
of the 18th. The weapon used was
IN air-gun and the bullet after pas.
sing near where the General sto cd
was found on the opposite sidewalk.
The person who made the attempt
disappeared at once, and at last ac-
counts the police had not been able
to trace out his identity.-N. York

PENSIONS.

The question is very often asked:
"Who are entitled to pensions?"
The act of Congress passed July,
1862, made liberal provisions in
granting pensions to disabled or I'M
valid soldiers who have served i'll
the army OF the Union since the
4th Of March, 1861, and also to all
widows and children (under sixteen
years Of age,) as well as mothers
and dependent sisters of soldiers
killed in battle, or who shall die by
reason of wounds received or dis
ease contracted while in service and
in the line of duty. The provisions
as q whole are much more liberal
than the old pension laws for the
Revolution or of the war of 1872.
The amount of pensions for total
disability are fixed as follows: Nom
commissioned officers, musicians,
and privates, per month, So; Sec
ond Lieutenants, SIS; First Lieu
tenants, ST; Captains, $40; Majors
S25; all officers of high rank, $50.
But a large majority Of those ac-
cepted as pensioners are only par
TALLY disabled, and the amount OF
pension is rated according to their
disability,-one-fourth, one-third,
one-half, two-thirds, three-fourths,
&c. The disability is based on the
proportion which the effects of n
wound received or disease contrac-
ted in public service actually disa-
bles one from obtaining liveli-
hood.

a GLANCE AT THE PAST.


Mr.. EDrroR.--I suppose all Of
your readers remember well the
promises made by the abolition
stump speakers, during the cam
paign Of 1860, Of the "good times
we would have if we would only
elect "ILonest old Abc!m l reccol-
lect one who addressed the citizens
OF Eaton, in the Court House, just
previous to the election, who said:
"Elect Lincoln, and he will lead
you through green pastures to
pleasant streams. Elect Lincoln,
and the expenses Of the Govern
meht will be reduced. Elect Lin
coin, and if the South secede, we
will send few wide-awakes down
there and wipe them out before
breakfast. Elect Lincoln, and we
will have honesty and reform
Elect Lincoln, and we will bring
the government back to the policy
Of our fathers" Well Honest
old Abe was elected, and instead
of being led through "green pasl
lures to pleasant streams" we
are wading in blood up to our
knees, digging graves for our
young men, and taking care Of the
manned, wounded, widows and or.
phans. The pay, however, is not
SO good, when soldiers are drafted
and forced to work for $l3 per
month in paper money which is
worth only half its face. Lincoln
was elected, and tile expenses Of
the government are q hundred
4 times .ss.re;ter. Lin,;oln Yas elect,

for currency, and biIIions OF debt
Lincoln was elected, and instead o.
economy and reform, we have had
stealing and wholesale plunder, un.
heard of in any age of the world
Lincoln was elected, and instead ot
coming to any policy Of our faith,
ers,. are coming to taxation, ma
tional bankruptcy, disgrace and un
mistakable ruin. And now, in the
face ofa this deception and ras.
cality, these very same individuals
ask, and attempt by the most outra
geous usnrpations power, to force
US to lend our support to this infAl
nous administration, that has
trampled under foot the rights Of
States and OF citizens, which ha;
obliterated State lines, and created
new States in defiance Of the Con.
stitution, which has squaudered the
lives and money of our people
bankruptcd the treasury, annihila

destroying another; to this corrupt
faithless, arbitrary, imbecile admin

nation! Can you do it reader? Viii
